The, Jeflerson paperi are voluminou. Besides territorial and political disqui<i tions and correspondence. they embrace treatie, ot moral and religions tapies; and parneulatly. nd coanmment o the life and character of*St. Paul. Mr. .lrf'erWon was perhaps more carefl of pnpiters than any man that ever lived, except the lpte Johii Q. Adams.

The papers lefli by the late ex-Pretideni Maonroe. have been collected and pre pared for the press. and their publication will ni doubt, tie encouraged by the ga verninem. They are said to be very val ntablo and imteresting. They embrnce a treaties ott the elementary principles of goverinment as written by Mr Monroe in retrement and not long to his death; and atn auto-hioegraphy of his public life np to the v,!ar 1801.

All the medical gentlemen in town, visited him on Thurs day, but they weie prevented from doing anything for his relief. Their very pres euce, together with the necessary itiqijtries put to him, touching his condition, were sffi,:iient to throw him into the most vio lent spa-ms. They attempted in alinirds ter cloroforn but his spasms were so violent that they were compelled to desist.
