PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 6.-An outrage
ous story is going the rounds of the SEN
sational press to the effect that the mind
of Samuel j Randall has been impaired
by his long and severe Illness. Nothing
could be further from the truth than this
rnmor, which may, or may not have
been started by an enemy for Political
effect. Mr.. Randall is still weak, and
reclines on his bed the greater part of
the time, although he sits, up, walks
about the house, receives callers, con-
ducts his correspondence, and even goes
ont for a drive. He looks well, consider
ing the severe siege he has gone through.
The story That his physical weakness
is accompanied by loss of mental
strength is a cruel one, and, IL anything,
more malignant than the report started
by sensation mongers some time
q that he was dying of cancer Of
the stomach. Randall is all right, and it
is promised that when he again gets
abroad 1T will be in fully restored health.
