BY the Packet ship Columbia, Capt Gra-
ham, arrived at N. York, English papers
have been received to the 18th ofJune. They
contain nothing of moment, being chiefly
filed with Election proceedings. John Ran
dolph had arrived in Liverpool after ga pro-
tracted and uneasy voyage" where he ap.
pears to excite as much curiosity and specu
laton, as he has lately done at home. At a
dinner given by the Mayor of Liverpool, to
Mr.. Huskisson, the newly elected member
of Parliament, Mr.. r. was guest, and drew
a considerable portion of the attention Of
the campany to himself by the exercise OF
his wit and genius; and profuscly bcdaubed
his curious admirers with fulsome flattery
AMI ill-placed enComums upon the trade and
institutions of that country. While upon an
aquatic excursion with the company with
which he had dined, lie was " surrounded
BY large crowd Of gentlemen. whom he
greatly amused by his eccentric, yet nstruc-
tive and original conversation" He appears
to be quite favourte with those who have
heard him converse and enjoyed his conver-
sation, as may be seen by the following ex-
tract, which we quote for the amusement of
our readers.
"No sooner had Mr.. Randolph quilted the
Britannia and got on board one of the river
steamers, than he was again quickly sur
rounded by a curious group. A gentleman
on board the Britannia then proposed three
cheers for Mr.. Randolph, which were Civ
en- with great enthusiasm. The honorable
gentleman, taking off his hat, exclaimed with
great animation "Gentlemen, Old England
and Young America, united for ever! Who
shall divide them ?" Loud cheers followed
this pithy speech, and the band on board
struck up Yankee Doodle. An Irish gentle
man asked Mr.. Randolph what would be the
best cure for the miseres of Ireland. 81 will
give it to you in the words of the bible
Unmuzzle the or MattreadeM sutthe corn.
The Irish peasant is deprived of his due and
proper share of the fruit of the earth" A
mother gentleman observed that he did not
think Cobbett was qualified to sit in the
House of Commons Cobbett not qualified
tor seat in the House of Commons % ex-
Claimed Mr.. Randolph " Why he has qua
llhed himself for a seat in that House, as a
lady Of easy virtue qualities herself for the
Magdalen Asylum,-by life of prostitution
10 all parties and being faithful to none."-
speaking of man, Mr.. Randolph said " He
is naturally indolent, and all your contrivan-
ces OF church and state, or by whatever 9TH
ername they may be called, are, that A. may
oe idle while B. works" Talking of pro-
peTty--" Society, said the sage, cannot sub
sist without property. If, in political revo-
iutlons, property be divorced:from power,-
power VIII soon go in search of property. A

more united" :" In all state revolutions"
said Mr.. Randolph, "endeavor to keep down
the dregs Of society. You can easily blow
off the froth but if once YOU let the dregs
get uppermost, depend upon it, the draught
will be, not blue, but black ruin" A gentle
man was enquiring about the constitution OF
Virginia, the state which Mr. Randolph re-
presents in Congress. Why, said Mr.. Ran
doph, we vote for representatives, Oiud voee
on freehold suffrage ; and we Virsinians
would as soon have our noses cut oft, as to
change the mode to voting by ballot" "Ihen
sir, your mode of voting is the same as in
England ?" AYE, to be sure, replied Mr..
Il. have we not been steering the same course
ever since we left you, without tacking or
taking in sail 2 only we have thrown the
king overheard. God bless him :"
When the boat came along side the wall,
what a magnificent quay this is exclaimed
Mr.. r. "We have none like it in America.

| pendent on each other y on take her cotton,
tobacco and other raw produce; and she

Can you conceive of greater nonsence than

whether he would be at his lodgings at il Ger

In presenting New Work of this kind to the

arrangement 1t pretends to little novelty of cha

the works which have already been published(tor
