 upon these circumstances, men of lonp ax- perience and approved judgment are alone coni1ded ln. ltthis, as 1t must be seen 10 be, IS ot so much consequence 10 individu- l ais, pi what immense importance Is it not to the State Governments, in putting their enuctmeBts into operation, 10 select lndlvidz uais of the greatest experience? For how IS that complex appearance Of rocks in diff. fefent parts of the same country, which. though altogether tiiiferen, in their external ehafacters, may be true equivalents of each other, to be recencied by men who bnve only studied them in books? or hove can mon cimm to have their opinions confided in ra- speetlng the tendency, direction. and ouaItv ol ine1aiiliefous yeIns, or the probable ex- lstence ot coal measures, upon which the outlay of great capitals depends, who have never been down in mine, and have stu died minerals only from cabinet spscimens9 in geology no learning can supply the place of experience. A geologist may be an iindlf. ierent analyst, but certainly no man should be presumed geologist merely because ho IS learned chemist or a profound mathe- inaticlan. Such an important trust, there lore, as IS comprehended in the geological survey of n State, should be confined only to men of long approved experience.
 Il have thought these observations not out ot place, because, in the ineipient en- eouragemeht now gwen to geology by some of the State Governments, and which will probably be done by all of them, t is iln- Poftant that the few individuals in the coun- try who have the requisite experience, should not De overlooked in favor Of others. who are perhaps not aware themselves of the extent of practical experience required to make any mans labors valuable, and wor. thy of being transferred to geological maps oi the countries they survey. It must be evident that geological map of any coun- try, upon which all the important mineral and metallic deposites should be accurate y lad down, with their direction, extent. and other important incidents belonging n them, would be of great value. How much, then, does 1t concern the interests of the United States, that rational estimates o1 the nationai resources, with all those in- .ailible indications which should precede internal improvements, and whatever else aPPenlains to monument of such singular importance to them as | general geological map would be, should be done with the ut- most accuracy. It seems called for both by the best interests and the reputation of the country.n

 BEAUTY.

What Is beauty! alas. 'tis a jewel, glass, bubble, plaything, rose; 'Tis the snow, dew, or air--'tis so many
 things rare. That 'tis nothing one well may suppose. 'Tis jewel, loves token-glass easily bro
 ken,
 A bubble that vanisheth soon; \ plaything that boys cast aside when it
 cloys;
 A rose quickly faded and strewn. Like the air it is felt.-like the snow it will
 melt,
 It refresheth the heart like the dew; And as nothing can vic with a brilliant blue
 eye,
 'Iis like nothing, sweet lady, but you.

 STANZAS FOR MUSIC.
On! STRIKE THE f1UTE. LADyl

 Oh! strike the lute. lady! the wildness that clings To my spirit grows tame while listen to thee; Iris music alone that can open the springs Ofthis dark frozen bosom; sing, lady, to me! That song-oh how well I remember the strain, When it stole on me first from the lips that are cold Those lips that can never breathe music again, Oh tell me to love, as they oftimes have told. oh!- strike the lute, lady but wake not the strings 'Io the soft lay of love, Of the light note Of joy; Some sweet Sabbath air that to memory brings The home and the friends that left when a boy. Thus begulled let me sit-thus, in fancy, be- hold The loved and the loving ones still at my side; And forget the long years that in darkness have rolled, Since those loved and those loving ones faded and died.

The state of Greece is represented as de- piorable. The taxes, amounting to lhreo millions sterling, to support an expensive retinue of ambassadors abroad, and hungry office holders at home, drive the Creeks to Samos and Turkey. Otho, instead of cul- tvating the lands, is building theatre at Athens.

Travellers in Egypt differ in their opin- ions of its Sovereign, Mahomet Ali. some representing him to be a short-sighted despot, whose pretended ciyilizing schemes are shallow and ostentatious; others regard ing him as profound statesman and tho regeneration of his country. Whatever may be the truth on this point, he Is unquestion- ably man ofrare energy and strength of character,--a worthy rival of Sultan Mah- mould, who excites so much admiration in Commodore Porter.-It is a strange coinci- dence that the two greatest living monarchs should be Mahomedans, for the Kings of Europe are weddings or dotards, compar- cd with these oriental autocrats.

Ship Westminster, at sea, of the highiands of .Nepersink

 Farewell! my more than father land!
 Home of my heart and friends, adieu! Lingering beside some foreign strand,
 How oft shall l remember you!
 How often OCT the waters blue, Send back sigh to those leave,
 The loving and beloved few, Who grieYe for me-for whom I prieye. We part!--no matter how we part
 There are some thoughts we utter not. Deep treasured in our inmost heart,
 Never revealed, and ne'er forgot!
 Why murmur at the common lot! We part!-l speak not of the pain
 But when shall l each lovely spot. And each loved face behold again! It must be months-it may be years
 1t may-but mol will not fill Fond hearts with gloom, fond eyes with tears, Curious to shape uncertain ill.''
 Though humble-few and far-yet still Those hearts and eyes are eyer dear;
 Theirs Is the love no time can chill, The truth no chance nor change can scar! All have seen-and all Tsee,
 Only endears them more and more; Friends cool-hopes fade--and hours flee, Affection lives when all Is OCT!
 Farewell my more than native shore! do not seek or hope to find
 Roam where l will, what deplore To leave with them and thee behind
