In reifard to other lopi.-s, 111 li:e course ol repeated conversations, he reniar'.eil I list he was tieartien. Alonliromery when lie fell ai Q'jubec; nnd that, notwithstanding that disas ter, if the army had pushed on tin y would have succeeded. At mv last iotervteiv with bin:, -about 12 o'clock nt noon, the day he departed thi life, nbout 2 o'clock P. .M. ii aforesaid, September 13, 1SD6, 1 found him, as usual, pleased to see ine, tranquil in iminl.niu not i!iturned hvuoclilv pain. Utisen mtr pneness and cnange in n:s countenance and hts pnlo tremu ous, llutler- in e, nnd erratic, I asi;ed him how he felt? Me replied, not so well as when 1 Inst saw him. 1 then said. Cnlinel. I di not wish to alarm Von, but juiljioe froiii tin- atn'eof your pue your time with us i.s short. He replied, "lam cmare of it." It was iicht 1 o'clock P. M., and his mind and memory xwnird perfect. I said to him, in this soleiun hour of your ap parent dissolution, helii'vini: ns you do in the sacred Scripture, your ae -ountuhiliu to God, lot ine ask you how yu feci in view of ap proachintr eternity: whether yo i have c"d hope through ff -v t'nt itil vour sins will be pardoned, and iii.ii tl-ai will in mercy pardon von for tho snko of the ineritM ami righteous tiess of his beloved Son, our Lord jesus Christ, who in love stilfcred and died for us the nion i?.ig bitter death of ihe Cross, by whom alone we can have the nnlv sure hope of salvation? To which he said, wilh deep nnd evident emo tion. "On that subject 1 am coy." By which I understood him in mean that on a subject of such ninjjnitiide and momentous interest, touch ini the assurance of his salvation, he felt coy (cautious, n the word denotes) to express him self in full confidence. With his usual cordial concurrence nnd manifest desire we kneeled in prayer before the throre of henrcnly trraee, imploring God's mercy and blessing. lie turned iu his bed nnd put himself in nn humble nevotional pos ture, and seemed deeply engnoed in the reli gious 8?rvice, 'hanking mc, ns usual, for the praver made for hi n. Cnliji nnd composed I recommended him to the mercy of God nnd 0 the word of his jirnce with n hist fnrewell. At nbout 2 o'clock P. M., without a sronn or btraggle, ho breathed his last. His death was easy and neiitle as a tnper in the socket nnd as the summer's wave that dies upon the shore. Thus died Cel. Aaron Burr. His first funeral service wns performed by tne in the Port Richmond Uone, where he died. "Thence we took his remains to the C'.a pel of Princeton Colleee, N Jersey, where Dr. Carnahan, tho President, nnd layself per formed hia last funenil service before the stu dents, the faculty, the military, a nd a numer ous assemblage, nnd he was buried, ns he re quested, in the supulchre ol his ancestors." The Great Central Sea in Africa. We have already noticed the discovery of a vast aea in the interior of Africa, hut we do not remember to have seen till now a statement of its extent nnd locality. If the boundaries fixed in the following extract me correct, t'ais sea is about fcix hundred miles lonirfrom north to south, nnd over four hundred miles broad from east to west. We hnv seen it stated that the water of this vast inhitul sea is salt. The existence of such a sea 'has long ben a matter of belief, from the fact that, with the exception of the Nile and ihe Niger, no great rivers flow from Central Africa to the ocean. LonistiUc Journal. In the Calwer Missionsblatt we find, with some letters from Dr. fiebmnn dated the 13th and 30th of April, a map which is communi cated by the learned missionary. On this map. Iietween the Equator nnd 10 decrees of south latitude, and between the C3d and 30(h mari dian, lie an . immense sea, without outlet, nvice as Inine the Black Sea, including the Sea of AzofT. It is designated Ukerewe, or Inner Sea, and the veil known Nijassn Sea nmx-nr as a small bay on the southeast." Pr Kcbmatl refers to a map in detail, which his j rnmuaninn. Dr. Erhardt, is brinpine to Europe, This preai discovert', tho consequtnses of which an hardly be estimated, has rested, hitherto, on the fostimonj- of the natives of both shores ol" ihe Inner Sea, with whom the ctiionaries came in contact. Dr. A. Peter man remark?, in a letter in fhe Atiieneurn, lint the Africnn inrapher.
