The Washington Telegraph states that in Mr.
3andolph's last speech he explains the history
which Mr.. Giles gives of Mr.. Adams conversion
under Mr.. Jefferson administration. Mr. a. is
said to have charged some leading 90 Ecderalists
with plotting secession 10 the mother country
Mr.. L. stated it from Il letter, which he had seen
from gentleman In Va. which detailed Mr. G's
account of the Transaction, or 8 years ago -
This statement of Mr. G. ii, said 10 have been sus-
tanned by MIR. Randolph, who was at that time a
member OF Congress, &c.
OF this speech letter writer in the Richmond
Enquirer speaks as follows, sc.
a letter received by friend of ours, dated April
81, says of this speech
- l heard John Randolph speak six hours the
day before yesterday, concluding a speech whc h
he began OF about three hours length the day be-
foe. The first part OF his speech was direct and
powerful Mills; the last the most sarcas-
tic bold and violent attack, on ]. Z. Adams, Clay,
sc. sc. that can be imagined. He il the most aso
nishnS orator ever heard; and Notwithstanding
some of the administration presses call him mad
man, he is listened TO with Difference interest
and apparent respect than any other man on lie
t,oor of either house. Although he has spoken 30
| much this winter, he draws a crowd into the Sc
nate whenever he rises. He commanded the ain
ale and undivided attention OF numerous audience
during every moment of six hours. There is no
man here or any where else, that can command an
audience like him. Boston Statesman

who had read The letter, vouchers for his res
p, ctability. The circumstances related NAV be
wormw God to some of the weathercock fcJeralists
OF Massactus cts, and as such we care not how
often they are made TO swallow the dose; but I've
confess we cannot see why il should be adini-
nIstered in the senate of the United States, OF
what it had TO DO with the constitutional right OF
line President TO appoint diplomatic agents.
