Mr. Randolph, af ane quarter before §
this ‘day; closed a speech of at lewst ten
hous in length, which he began on Thurgs
day. A litde before he stoppzd,he ohsery~

the bead-ach and other causes, that he
shouid pot proceed further. He, hower-

thread of his discourse on some future oc-
casion, when it should be proper.—It was
delivered in committee of the whole, on tha
resolution repsrted by the committee of
ways and means for reducing the laod tox

Although he might be correct in stating,
