A Noble Act. $:■;
Lieutenant Beall, of the United'
States Navy, is already known to tW
country, having particularly (listing
guished himself on several occasions
as a bearer of important dispatches' to
and from Oaliforiiia, both through the
heart of Mexico , during the war, and
across the prairies and Rocky Moun
tains, forcing liis way with equal spir
it through civilized and savage eiie-
‘mfes. As a gallant naval officer and
it'.ffepldtraveler, with the courage to
' face an'd energy to overcome every dif
ficulty andiptrilpv/e can well believe
hehas no superior p-lutf have re*
xeritly beard an "anecdote told, of him,
being the account of a circumstance
which happened on the last journey to.
California, from which he has only so
btdwreturned, which, while it illus
trates the dangers of the road, proves
that there is another quality in him
higher than mere resolution and brave-'
rv—a humane and generous disposi

character of heroism:
It .was, we believe, in the Gila coun-
trv that Lieut. Beall, having encamp
ed his party and placeel" it in safety,
went out hunting. He set out'til on
on a. favorite saddle tnaft which was
'generally kept or spa red for Such occa
sions, Abbut six miles from the camp
he had the good fortune to kill n deer;
'and "he was on the ground dressing" the
eareass, when, on looking up, he sud
denly heboid a troop of mounted Apa

were ihVsTting furiously town ds him.
They had■■‘.doubtless' heard the report
or scenxth^srnoke df his rifle, ami so
were on him before he was aware i but
he knew very well that to be overta
ken by tkenr, a sin le white man
among these naked iiills which tlie\
cal ied their own, was certain death, and
accordingly, leaving ha* quarry and
mounting in htit, haste, lie Tclied ujion
tli ■ mettle of his^ mare, which he put to
full speed, to earrAhim back in safety
to the camp. Away'darted the young
Lieutenant, . nd on l usbtd tliesiyagc.s,
thundering and -yelfing" in cei t.ain as
surance of their prey. But -confident
as they were, the fugitive wasnjuite as
well Satisfied of iris ability-to esenp",
although tht ; ir liorscs were fresh, rtlian
the mire, and it was pretty certain
they were gaining slightly upon her,
aiui would .give her a severe contest
before reaching the camp.
Thus assured "of his sifvty, but not
relaxing his .speed, Lieutenant B. han
recovered .half his distance from the
camp, when, dashing over the cr. st of
a hill, he was horrified at the sight of
<mc of liis mvnnien, on foot, climbing
the hill, and hi fact, following in his
trail to assist him in the hunt. The
sight .of the Lieutenant flying down
the hill at SUch a furious Tak*, was,
doubtless, enough', perhaps the jour

Our. mail arrangements have gone
fvom'bad to worse, We have been for
-a long time, in'the habit of receiving-
Savannah pnper§ the day of their pub
lication. But since tlie new arrange
ments, we get them a day, sometimes
two days r after their publication.—
Sometimes two or three cotne together,
some of which, are four days old. This
is-a great annoyance to us, and we
hear much c.mplaint from subscribers
to Savannah papers. Let them look
to it, or we in this part of- the country,
will be compelled to loofc to Augusta
for latest intelligence. Tbe carrying
-tlte great through mail bv this route

- The Chuyloyani is rich and beautiful

Cd it from its Iwd of rock, the fire roll-
etl down in elnsteicd sparks at every

a polish—toff the Chnvtoyar.t has the
hardness of Adamant, the rich lustre
of "polished agate, and when placed in.
the brilliant rays of .the sun glows with
CorruscatiohA and in tbe-rays of lesser

surrounded by halos ot the richest an if
Saftest and most mellow tints.
And for whom aud for.what If ere
