Randolph got to Charlotte Court House on Monday 7th instant, and al- though in very feeble health, addressed the people in the open air in a speech of more than two hours length. His object was to explain-lst, why he had offered himself as candidate to represent them tn the next Congress; and secondly, why he had with drawn himself afterwards. In the course Or his speech he vindicated his conduct i1 re-
 naining in London when he ought to have been in Russia, and came out in favor of Gem eral Jackson, whom he declared to be as hon. est man as lives beneath the sun, and pus- sessed of more than ordinary talents. He read several of the Generals private letters tO him while in London, showing that he re- malnrd there with his appreciation. He said he should vote for Andrew Jackson fnr Pre- sident hereafter, because he was an honest man, and man of talenis, but was the most orthodox of the candidates, but there were many men he should prefer to him if they could be got. was much pleased at having an opportunity ot hearing Mr. Randolph speak at length. as Ihad never heard him for more than a few ,ninntes before. He came to Charlotte in a coach he brought with hims from London, drawn by four horses."-Nor- folk Beacon.
