JOHN RANDOLPH 'HEADED" Of the many anus
ing anecdotes Of this eccentric man of Roanoke we
do not believe the following was ever in print:
He was travelling through part of Virginia in
which he was unacquainted: meantime he stopped
during the night at an inn near the forks of the
road. The inkeepef was fine gentleman, and no
doubt of one of the first families in the Old Domiu-
ion. Knowing who his distinguished guest was. he
endeavored during the evening to draw him into
conversation, but failed in all his efforts. But in
the morning, when Mr.. Randolph was ready to
start, he called for his bill which, on being pre-
sented was paid. The landlord, still anxious to
have some conversation with him, began as fol-
lows:
(Which way are you travelling Mr.. Randolph ~
"Sir ?" said Mr.. Randolph with look Of dis
pleasure. "Have paid my bill 2"
Yes
"Do owe you anything more 2"
"No"
"Well, I'm going just where I please-do you
understand :"
"Yes"
The landlord by this time got somewhat excited
and Mr.. Randolph drove off. But to the landlord s
surprise, in few minutes the servant came to in
qure for his master which of the forks of the road
to take
Mr. Randolph, not being out of hearing distance
he spoke at the top of his voice: ''Mr. Randolph,
you don't owe me one cent; just take which road
you please

SATURDAY MORNING, JANUARY 81, 1855.


| THE MODEL SPEECH ABOUT SHAD.-The
brief speech we copy below, will be just in
season to kindle in the heart fond desire to
| welcome the return of the shad, not only to
the rivers but to the table. In few days the
sun enters Pisces,-and there will be Cupids
and Venuses among the inhabitants of the
| waters, according to ancient fable, it being
the season when Venus and Cupid, to avoid
Typhon, dreadful giant with an hundred
heads, transformed themselves into fish, and
conducted their amours in the waters. The
shad will then begin to appear in the lively
currents of the rivers, and initiating their IL
lustrious predecessors, disport themselves
very happily. But then it is that the fisher
men, who are on the subject of ancient ale
CORY, and Cupid and Venus, Know IN Nothings,
will entrap them and take them to market,
where they will be hailed with pleasure; and
the Editors, as usual, will be announcing the
arrival of well dressed shad for their especial
qualification.
just in advance of such time, the genial
eulogy passed upon shad, by the speach to
which we have referred, the gallant effort to
vindicate their privileges to ascend the rivers,
will be grateful to the reader. Indeed, there
is an expansiveness in the character and
dispositions of the shad which the orator has
not too strongly characterized. He knows
no distinctions. 1t is true, when he first ap-
pears, he is chiefly courted by the wealthy,
who put price on his person beyond the
reach of the humble; but the shad soon vim
dcates the claim of all to his association, by
coming in such numbers as to find his way
into every house and every frying pan. His
appearance is indeed an event of great i'm
portance in the calendar and should be sig
nalized with such pomp as is observed in
some foreign seaports upon the breaking up
of ice and the opening of navigation.
But to the speech, A bill was pending in
the North Carolina House of Commons, on
the 22nd, for the construction of a dam
across the Neuse river. 1t was gallantly op-
posed by Mr.. MoRDECAI:
Mr. Mordeca spoke ofthe plentiful supply of fish
before DR.. Watson's dam was erected. He showed
how the DR.. had evaded the provisions of the act,
and said that he DIR. W) put the shad money in
his pocket. tie said the dam was Twelve ieet high
and the shad could never get over the dam uness
they had claws. He said he desired the dam should
be torn down and his amendment to the Ballinger
bill might be Incorporated. He said the shad OF
Neuse were patriotic fish-they knew no East-no
West-but they offered themselves living sacri
fce 70 the frying pans of all.
1t will be gratifying to the reader to learn
that the bill was so amended as to require
that the dam should not obstruct navigation
or the free passage Of the shad.
