| Notwithstanding we have devoted SO much space,
in to-day's paper, to Correspondents, we still have
on hand several communications which are crowded
out for want of room.
Several other articles, prepared for this number,
are also excluded.
The following is from Correspondents at Wash
inyton.
From the Boston Courier Feb. 22d.
| Mr.. Randolph has not made his appearance in
the House for fortnight. He rides out occasional
ly, and was seen yesterday, it was reported on
horseback, accoutred with the game-bags and other
implements Of the sportsman. Whether his absence
from Congress is the consequence Of sickness or not
is not known.
From the Massachusetts Journal, Feb. l8.
| Mr.. John Randolph has not appeared in the House
since he made his attack on the Tclegraph-assall-
ant and assailed worthy If each other-alike abu-
sve, alike erratic, and alike Irresponsible Unless
he intended his reply to Mr. Everett to be in reality
lis vaIedictory efiort-and he did say something to
that efect-now that he has taken some ten days to
fill up, and furnish up, and lengthen out his deca
maory essay that occasion to about twice its Or
ignal and legitimate length, it is probable that he
will suddenly become convalesceDt, and come, like
the returning sun, after gloomy absence, to illu-
mine and blister the House.
As yet we have no accounts Of the proceedings
of two Select Committees, of whom something more
than ordinary was expected. ! mean the Committe
on the Rules, moved for by Mr. John Randolph,
with view to expurgatc the House of the repor-
ters and of which he, according to usage and c0ur
tesy, is the Chairman. am inclined to believe that
he has scarcely called the committee together if he
has, not ray Of light has yet strayed beyond the
committee room. The other Committee, is that OF
Retrenchment moved for by Mr.. ChiiDton-poor,
prosecuted, neglected Chton-who contrary to
courtesy and usage. is not the Chairman and who
beginning to feel how unworhIly he has been trea-
ted, threatens to come out and valicate his resou-
solution and his fame together 1t is my opinion,
that, as this committee is composed, with only two
exceptions, of those persons who asserted that this
is not the accepted time to set apart Investigation
into abuses, acting upon that idea in the committee
they may probably produce no very efficient results.

WILLIAM H. CRAwFORD'S OPINION.
1t gives real pleasure. at the threshold ofOur la
bors to be supported in the cause we have underta-
ken, in relation to the charges of Gen. Jackson and
the combination, got up against Messrs Adams and
| Clay, on the respectable and revered authority OF
Wm H. Crawford. A friend has informed us,
and which confirms the various rumours afoat on
the subject during the past week. that letter has
been received in this city from William H. Craw-
ford late Secretary of the Treasury, expressing, in
decided terms, his utter disbelief of any corrupt
collusion between the Secretary OF State and the
President. Such sentiments emanatlng from such a
distinguished and disinterested source, cannot but
have their due weight throughout the union. For
ourselves it IS superhuous, after a peru'al OF =.
Clay's pamphlet. We hope this important letter
will be forthwith given to the public.
"7hings By their right names."-ltis is not little
remarkable that the combination have chosen a
most appropriate name for their mouth piece.
namely, the TELL-LlE-graph, published in this
city which, for misrepresentation and the proPaga-
ton Of fasehood daily sustains its cognomen.
t The Philadelphia Press says-A report, founded
on etterfrom IA respectable source at Washington,
is freely circulated through this city, that the Sec
retary of State, Henry Clay, has received a let
ter from VIM. H. Crawford, of Georgia, in which
S Mr.. Crawford expresses his high appreciation OF
the course taken by Mr.. Clay in the House of Rep
esentatives, in 1926, the final vote for President.
1t is even stated that Mr.. Crawford is pleased to
say that, if he had been representative of the
. people, and in the House at that time, he would
have acted and voted as Mr.. Clay did,
In confirmation of the above statement from the
