With great regret we learn the melancholy , death of Joseph Ritchie , Esq ., at Mourzuk , in Africa , about 400 miles south of Tripoli . He was a native of Otley , and was a young man of great abilities and enterprise ; he was employed , under the auspices of the African Association , to make discoveries in the interior
of Africa , and particularly to endeavour to penetrate through the great desert of Tombuctoo . The death of this enterprising young man is particularly to be lamented , as we are afraid a knowledge of the interior of Africa will scarcely be accomplished in our days . How many men of science have fallen victims to
their thirst for knowledge ! Of six persons who accompanied Nehrbur ,, the Danish traveller , in his tour through Arabia , he alone survived . Since then , Hornnman , Mungo Park and Burckhardt have also fallen a sacrifice to a climate which seems peculiarly obnoxious to European constitutions . ( Month . Mag . )
