Randolph. Suddenly, on the morning of the 4th instant, in the 70th year of his age, Peyton Randolph, Esq., formerly of Virginia, but for the last twelve years a resident of this city, and an inmate of the family of his son, Col. James Innes Randolph. He had but a few minutes before returned from market, and had just remarked to his son how well he felt. But he had scarcely taken his seat in the parlor, where the corpse of a great-grand-child lay ready for interment, when he fell heavily upon the floor without speech or motion, and breathed his last before the family physician could arrive to see him. He leaves a widow, son, and daughter, and a large family of grandchildren, already bowed down with affliction at the death of another beloved one then unburied. May God in his mercy sanctify to them all this double bereavement!
