Candidates who desire to be elected land we
suppose all of them do) should have their an
nouncements in the SPECTATOR for that is one
of the means that should be used. 1t will be
apt to be found after the election that those
who were elected, had their announcements
in the SPECTATOR; for this has been generally
the case in the past, and history, in this re-
spect, will probably repeat itself. Next Mon
day, being court-day, will afford a good op-
portunity to leave such announcements with

how he was impressed by that great man, both
as the able lawyer and genial gentleman, in
his youth, and the high estimate he still en-
tertains of his remarkable talents and the
purity of his character both public and pri-
vate. The sketch he gives Is both instructive
and entertaining to those of the present gen.
Grafton, and presents the subject of it in a
luminous and pleasant light. Though giant
in intellect, he was as tender in his family
relations, and as kind to children, as a wo-
