A bright pair of grey eyes occasionally betray tho spirit of song that dwells within, notwith standing the laborious efforts to couceul it. A remarkably small nose, pretty mouth, rath er hectic cheeks, and dimpled clun, complete the inventory of her features. If a stranger were to converse with her, ignorant of In r poetical powers, he would scarcely belipro that tho “ Improvisatiico”and “Golden Vio- lot” wore the productions of the guy being with whom ho had been qtmdrilling.

During the scs- j sion of tho Siiponnr Court of Walton cotin- I ly, he was brought up Ly Habeas Corpus,and his disclmrgo was moved for upon three grounds. 1st. That the warrant mid com mitment were defective. 21. That the act of the hist Legislature itself, did not contem plate punish ng the Indians for digging Gold on tliei own hinds, hut was intended for in truders and other persons; and 3d. That if it did, it was iincoiistilu iouul, on tlie ground thus it violated numerous treaties m iuo with thorn expressly guaranteeing the undisturbed posessiou and occupancy of all their lands not ceded to tho whites. After much argu ment, the Court said it was a very important question, and required the utmost delibera tion : respect for tho Legislature demanded it. As however, it did not believe the pe;son could be discharged upon the two first grounds, it. would in candor any, his best prospect was on the last, and as the Court would take time to consider so-gravc a ques tion, it would release him from his confine ment upon his own recognizance, to appear and answer to the charge at Gwinnett Su perior Court, when and wh re its opinion would he delivered, if in the moan time its j mind could he fully satisfied on the point.— ndcavor to have its opinion ready by Jackson Court, which is just past ; but such has been the nature of its other pressing engage ments, as well as tlm groat magnitude of the question, that it has not been done, nnd will not be done, until e cry source of information both legal and polical, is consulted, which can possibly shed light upon a subject involv ing so seriously, the liber' v of an unfortunate people, ns well ns the character of the. State. Since the question of the Indians, digging gold has been agitated, many persons have expressed an opinion that if they ure allowed to do it, they enn employ any person they please to do the same tiling. Su h nji opin ion is very erroneous, for wc have it from Judge Clayton himself, that even if he were to decide that the Indians had the right, the law would he binding against every other person, and the doctrine that 4 ‘ what a man does by another, he do r, s by himself,” will not apply to criminal cses. Il is unly ap plicable to civil contracts, and every man stands upon his own responsibility in com mitting acts that nre made criminal by law. We should regird any remarks upon this subject, at this time ns premature, and have therefore confined ourselves to the opinions entertained hy tho Court.— When the question shall have been definite ly determined—a question in which tho pub lic cannot hut ft el a more than ordinary in terest, we shall avail ourselves of the earliest opportunity of laying the result before our Navat..—We understand that the frignte United States, which has been lying at the Brooklyn Nnvv Yar '-nsnreeeivingship.P'iice her return from tho Pacific Ocean, is under going extensive repairs, with n view to future service. Her destination is believed to he the Mediterranean, to relieve the Constellation Commodore Daniel T. Patterson, now n Com missioner of tho Navy Board, it. is said, will he assigned to the United States, and succeed Com. Biddle in the command of our squadron iu that quarter. An intelligent Officer of the Nnvv who vi sited that noble- hip, the Pennsylvania, at the Navy Yard at Philadelphia, a f*\v days since, informs us that it wns discovered recently that she had settled somewhat on the stocks. She was in consequence further propped up, hut it was apprehended that. if.she settled still more, there would lie no other alternative but to launch her immediately. Her armament, winch lies along side of her consists of ISO forty two pounders. She has four tier of guns, and would require, when in service, a crow of 1300 men.—Jour, of Commerce.

Cusps of the Moon.—The position whicli tho cusps, or points, of the new moon exhibit, when first scon, has always been madea great handle of by as'rolngcrs. The following sim ple nnd rut ionnl account of this varying phe- nomen', is given in the Companion to the Almanac:—These (the cusps) nre always both at equal distances fYoin the sun, of course dieir standing straight or leaning backwards or forwards depends upon thq distances that the moon is north or south of tho sun. Any one can sec this by a very simple experiment. Take an orange, or nn npple, or any thing round, and hold it in your left hand between you and tho candle, only as far to the left ns that tho light will shine on n part of it, in the shape of a new moon. This moon may be much narrower of broader, according ns you hold it nearer or farther from the lino between you and the candle. If you hold it just as high as the candle, the line of the points will be upright; if yon move it higher than tho can dle, the lino will lean backwards more und more, as it is raised, nnd if you move it down lower than the candle, the line will lean for ward, more and more, as it is lowered.*’ Mechanic's Magazine.
