 Cor. BURR, We learn, is now very ,ou., indisposed, and cannot be expected 10 lva long. He is eighty years of age. He sen, ,s the other day for particular friend off ,s early years, under the apprehension that ba haa not long lease i'll the world. q sen. for you,o said he, q sent for you now. be s cause at another time We might merely loot ! in each others faces, but have no dispost, ion 10 talk" He then handed oyer ta lh;. friend several important manuscripts. nar of them intended for publication after bis death.

 Among those papers there is hiably interesting Journal which Col. Burr 4en during his travels Tn Europe, after the m. fortunate affair between him and General Hamilton. For beauty of description shrewdness Of remark, and originality of thought, we are informed that this ionTnal [ IS particularly pre-eminent. It will be re. collected that Colenel Burr, while in Eu. rope, moyedan the highest circles, was in. innate with the leading politicians of Ep. gland and France. and associated with tham in private and in public. Part Of this four nal Is in the form of familiar letters written to the late Mrs. Aston, of whom story was recently published, which, in Col. Burr's opinion, IS ridiculous and improb- able. The grace, beauty, and feeling which are scattered through these letters. are heightened, from the circumstance of their being written to his beloved daughter.

 There IS also, we learn, large number of highly important letters from European correspondents Of high rank, throwing light on his mysterious expedition to Mexico, which Mir. Jefferson turned so effectually a9atnst htm as treason against the United States. It appears that William Pitt, then the British Premier, was concerned in that project, and specially countenanced the al. tempt of Col. Burr. England was then at war with Spain, and the British Cabinet was very desirous of crppling their power in the South American possessions. 1 Of that period of his life, during which he was formidable competitor with Mr. Jefferson, for the Presidency, there is no letter or document remaining. That por- ttion of Col. Burr's eyentful life rests there- ] fore, on his own personal character, for truth and accuracy. In that respect he stands on precisely the same footing as Mr. Jefferson.

 The letters and memoirs of Jefferson made great sensation in the world when they peared-taose of Burr are caculat- ed, from their revelations, touching impor- tant periods of history, to be even more in- lteresting.

 The papers and documents already put l by Colonel Burr into the hands of his early friend for publication after his death. would fill several volumes of modern typography
