The late John Randolph OF Roanoke, in

suspended specie payment, had remittance
of some thousand dollars made him from
England The sum covered the whole OF
one Of his tobacco crops, and the funds were
locked up in the vaults OF the Bank OF A,
merica. Mr., Randolph was at the time in
the prime Of life, in The full enjoyment Of IN
equalled popularity. He repaired To New
York and demanded his funds in specie. 1t
cannot be had, was the prompt reply. 'Et
must be had," was The laconic response OF
Mr. Randolph. The bank was incorrigible
till The succeeding day, when the columns of
the New York Columbian announced by adj
vertisement, that that afternoon at two D.
clock, the Hon. John Randolph, would adj
dress The people on the subject OF Banks and
the frauds they committed, from the steps OF

attacked with that dreadful disease, hy-
drophobia, than at any other, some in
formation relative to the early symptoms
of the disease may not be Inappropriate,
as it will enable the owner of dog TO
recognise the disease before it can be
communicated to others, and to take
measures accordingly. When a dog is
first attacked with hydrophobia, he ap-
pears detected, shuns company, and re-
treats to some corner or hiding place. He
seldom barks. but seems to murmur, and
is averse to food and water. He will
appear surlv TO strangers. but retains
some apparent regard for his master; his
ears and tail hang down, and when he
moves he appears halfnsleep-other dogs
are careful TO keep out OF his way. This
is the FIRST degree Of madness. and though
