The ConStiuHonaGa Of yesterday, speaking OF
the nominations made by the democratic conven.
ton at this place on Friday last, has the follow.
ing paragraph:
We have curiosity to see what course the
Free Trader will adopt, and what arguments the
editor will use IN support oi these candidates
whom he has universally opposed, aud vented all
the spleen against he could muster.
Now wha, motive this editor may have for ma
king such statement, is doubtless best known to
himself; but that we have "unversally," or cv-
er, opposed or "ventcd all" or any, Of our
"splecn" against the candidates nominated lat
Friday, is known TO be unequivocally and unqua-
llfedy false by all the candidates themselye and
by every man in this community with whom we
have converscd in reference to them. Mr.. Red.
dick we voted for at every election at which he
has been a candidate since we came into the state,
have always been on the most friendly terms with
him, and at the precinct election two weeks ago
we volel for delegates in favor Of his nomination
to the senate. We supported and voted for Mr..
O'Connor two years ago, the only opportunity we
ever had to vote for him, and were, at tho same
election, the friend Of Mr., Barber until he with
drew from the field nor has anything since then
occurred to interrupt the good understanding that
has always prevailed between US and these last
two gentlemen. The only one Of all the canji.
dates we ever voted against is Mr. Glover, and
