TM Candidates at Oiirer's Spring, last Satur-
day. From several friends we have CLEANED the
following history Of the movements of the Candi.
dates. at divers Spring. which meeting we we're
unable 10 attend. The Candidates took the occa.
sion Of Battalion Muster OF Divers Spring, TO
present themselves before a numerous body Of
..sovreigns." Messrs. Bell and Clarke. the dem
ocratic nominees, friendly to tho reelection Of
Col. Ashley; Judge Brown and DR.. Allen, the
disorgani.ing candidates, favorable to the Preen.
sions Of Gov. Yell; and Mr.. Stone an independent
whig candidate, "on his own hook" Messrs
Smith and AXE were not present.


After the Military business Of the day was
closed, the candidates addressed the assemblage.
The discussions Of the Ashley and Yell candidates
were animated. Our friends, Messrs. Bell and
Clarke, sustained their cause ably, and in
manner most satisfactory to their audience
While the addresses ofJudge Brown and DR.. Allen
were received coldly, and without emotion, the
speeches Of our friends were listened to with
shouts ofapplause. When Mr.. Clarke humorou'y
exposed the plo,,ings Of Richard Of Crawford
and his cousin Of Buckingham" loud bursts Of
glee broke from the whole assembly. We venture
to say that the able and talented" Judge who
has swooped from his high station to "Pick "" p"
the friends Of Ashley, found that it was much
easier to ''catch Tartar" than to get rid Of him.
The Doctor, too has learned ere this, that he has
put bitter chalice to his lips. He finds that in
attempting to "surn" the good citizens Of Craw.
ford from Ashley to Yell, is moi so pautable a
vocation as he nigh. find by the sweet waters of
Retirement. g. Sugar Creek.


The redoubtabe Judge and valiant Doc,sr
Tough, like Mexicans in the onslaught of the con.
test, but their strife has slackened visibly each
time that they have met their antagonists. In.
deed they. las, Saturday, ingoriously fed, leaving
their adversaries, the Ashley men, masters Of the
field. Tho Ashley candidates mirrored faithfully
the disorgani,isg condu,t Of their opponents !;
holding up to The democracy their nefarous at.
tempts to destroy the party rather than see Col.
Ashley elected, thus making the "spring " too
hot location for these Yell men at that interesting
moment.


DR.. Allen "led off" the speeches. He, slotdy,
surely and most eloquen.iy convinced the people
that he was more devoted to The interests of .Ar.
chic Yell" than be was to the interests Of the
party, or the State. Mr.. Bell followed the Doctor.
He painted an exact picture Of tho midnigh. back
room, loeked-door caucuses which fa,hered the
Yell ticket. He compared the disorgani.ing
proceedings of the friends Of Yell, with the fair.
open, and liberal course pursued BY the friends Of
Ashley, who had proposed ts;ce, to these mad,
reckless, and lost sheep. to meet them in the dem.
ocratic fold of a convention, but had been by the
Yell men s.ciee refused. The loud bursts of ap.
plause, while their favorite was speaking, mani.
Tested the peoples coucu rrence with his sentiments.


The Judge then sPrang on to the stump. 10 q
stream Of poauerfui eloquenee he unfoded to the
amazed multitude his store Of learning and risdom
which he had gssnercd in "Gf.een years Of public
life." He urged the people TO send no ''ordinary
men" to the Legislature this sessiou-for, quo,h
he, "themembers had to modify the laws" 1t
was this impending crisis in our Legislative affairs,
which induced him 30 yield to The solicitations of
many hundreds (!!D of his fellow citizens ,ba,
be should offer himself as q sacrifice upon hi.
party's altar! He favored third man for the |
U. 8. Senate. He made a very lame at,emp, to
excuse his attitude before the people Of ,hi. ccas.y
being Judge Of the Circui, Court, and at the
same time politician s'umpng it over the county,
