Uh, what interface are you using to talk to PostgreSQL (e.g. pgAdmin,
phpPgAdmin, psql, something else?). If the tool you're using lets you
enter SQL queries, you should be able to enter a SELECT query with
ORDER BY and LIMIT to get the result you need. You will have to figure
out what you mean by "last row", i.e. what column(s) you give to ORDER
BY.

If you're not using psql, you might have to ask on a forum specific to
the interface you're dealing with (this list is fine for questions
about psql).
