While there lie wrote out, at the lequest of a friend who could not accom pauy him as he wisher! on his pilgrimage -a' diafy of the dccui rehces of his visit to General Jackson. This authentic record of almost the last hours of the General's life, has been opportunely placed a our dis pof. although, when it reached the direc tion, the demise of its subject was not anti cipated so soon by the wri'e'f. We submit it to oofr readers in lied of any femafks of our own cOnfdefing that it is in itself an obituary, worth more than all the panegyric v hieh a lull heart could lavish. It has the recommendation of placing one, known chiefly to his countrymen as a soldier and statesman, in a new fight -in the bosom scelies of life," and dndef the mot trying circiimiances".

My dear sir: Aware of your desire td know the condition of the Hermitage in tlie cloing.8ce:ii&t df his life, I write down; from da)' to day, during the short visit I make him, what occurs df interest. On my arrival t found ex-President Jackson mdre comfortable than, hp had been atthoiign his disease id not abated, and his long and useful life is rapidly drawing to it close. He has not ben ili a condition to lie down during ihe last four months. His feet, legs, hands and armSarc much swollen with dropsy; which Has inva ded his whole system. Bandages are drawn tight around the parts most affected to pre vent, as much as possible, the increase ol the water. He has scarcely any use of his hands. The bandages are remov ed sever d times in the 24 hours, and the parts rubber! severely to restore animation & the circulation ol the blood. Me has not si rength to stand. His respiration is very short and attended with much difficulty. & the whole progress of Ihe disease accbm panieu with great sunering. lie gets no sleep except by opiates. His left, lung was ruptured many years agoduung the e niinole campaign in Florida, and is entirely destroyed, add the other much disea sed. When the dropsy, commenced, the cough Was extremely severe, and expecto ration profuse. These symptoms, which had continued for years, now gradually gave way and a most entirely ceased This was followed by loss of appetite and constant nausea & prostration: 1 hisc took rjlace early iri April; aitid a1 bout the firit of iVlay a1 diarrhoea commenced which seemed td threaten an immediate disidtu ti 3d. This continued for a few days with great suffering, but fortunately reduced the swelling of the whole system: The abate ment of the diarrhoea was succeeded by the swelling in ail parts, with violent pain and extreme difficulty of breathing, when nature would again relieve itself as above tfecribedJ 1 . . , Thursday, May 2 Gen. Jackson is rather more comfortable; havitig obtained from opiates some sleep. This day he sat awhile to Mr. Healy. who had been sent by Louis Philippe (the King of th French) to paint his portrait. Mr. Healy told me that it was the design of the King of the French to plar-e his portrait by the side of VVa-h-ington, which1 already hangs in hii giUery the most, celebrated arid jutefeiing his torical gillery lu the world to ssirrourid i hem with the pictures of the most eminent of Ametican generals and statesmen. Mr. Healy is commissi ried b'y the king to p'dnt the portraits of some twelve of the most ditit guishel revolutionary patriots,' to sur round those of VvashingionaJjickson the' gri atpst arid bestmen our country eyer pro lured; also some of the most prominent living politicians of the day. Messrs. John Quincy Adams and Henry Clay wee named by Mr. Healy to me. Mr,'. Healy wa enabled to make much progress in his work to-day; and, as usual, the General re e'efved mariy vili tors, more than thirty. All were admitted from the humblest, to tihe most renowned to take the Venerable chief lain by the hand and bid him farewell. A mong the visitors al General Jesup', . an did tfieno anci companion n jafms; T(ve meeting of these most faithful; a'nd gallant soldiers and servants of the republic was deeply interesting and affecting. A rever end gentleman called to inquire in regard to the General's health, his faith, and fu ture hope; The General said i Sir, t am in the hands of a merciful God. I have fell) confidence in his goodness and mercy. My lamp of life is neaflv out, and the last glimmer has come. am ready' to depart, when called. The Bible is I true. The principles statutes of tha't holy book hare been the rule of my life, and 1 have tried to conform to its spir it as near as possiJt)!, Upon that sacred vofume I rest my hope for eternal salvation, through the merits and blood of! ouf blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ." Nothing further was said upon the subject. ... , .L . ,.; ,: , !
