A HINT FOR THE OPPOSITION.
Sayß the Christohuroh "Press "of the election : — The Opposition would have fared better in several electorates in various parts of the oolony had they been able to get better candidates. It would be ungenerous to speoify any oases where the Opposition candidates were not as strong as might be desired, for those gentlemen, as a rule, only came forward bocause nobody better could be induced to come out, and it would be ungrateful to complain oi those who did their best for us, But it is to be hoped that the result of ths election, showing as it does, that there has been a marked change of opinion on tbe part of the great mass of the electors wiil enoourage the best men to come forward next time. This eleotion has also been characterised by a commendable weeding out of one-idead men.
