TO .C0rFeSp0hdents.--" DtrJdm' IS of
such character as to exclude il from our
columns, without we were convinced Of
the truth Of the circumstances he details
Upon the authority of M. Nobody, we
cannot insert his communication. - 1'us-
co" is respectfully advised to turn bis head
TO some more congenial employment than
composition.
o. We publish to-day two notices of
Mr. Randolph's 4" long talk" On the 27th of
April. The least favorable to his character
from the Democratic Press represents
him in truly disgustful light. The other
tlrom his friend, the Washington Tele-
graph scarcely less 50. Even in the lat.
fer. he is said To have declared that SOME
oftbe Senator's had sold themselves to The ad-
n,iniStration. Why was not the change
repelled by the indignant voice of the Sc
nate Or why was he not compelled TO fix
bis finger on tne individuals who had thus
sUu tibtIbSeifco q ltlG otllblOIS u
faia of Mr.. Randolph, that they thus per-
nit hiip 10 aspserc their characters, with
out an effort being made IL vindicate them !;
The public are anxious 10 know to whom
Mr.. Randolph alluded and whether there
be any truth in his alIu-ion.

sgadrd--for himself, his state, his country,
when he views the extraordinary and I'M
iustjiable conduct Of our Senator? De
spising every thing like common decency,
Ire does indeed "empty the Walls of his
wrath upon heads high aud low" The
dignity of the Senatorial character is utter
" lost IN his Incorporate rawlings and the
character of tlIs State necessarily suffers in
thr hands Of such a representative. MI
Randolph has not hcsitated to pursue
line of conduct, which, however s,mc nlay
atfrct to behave not at all duplicating his
sanity Or suhrlety, because it is only indi-
catIve of an rrralc and Maynard genus,
grided by no rule and restrained by no
fear nf consequences, is generally presum-
ed 10 he owing either To Il permanent of
temporary atcctloa OF his intellect. He
