SINGULAR ACT OP DRSPRRATION.

An unfortunate occurrence took place at Maek's Ferry,
C,attaraugus Creek, to this county, on Saturday last:—.l
white ton and a large stout ludtuu, who goes by the name
of the Deeirs Ramrod, having hail some alorrcation, at
length proceeded to blow', the Indian being the aggressor.
They were parted by the by-standees (hut not until the white
man bad got the better of hue adversary), and the Indian pet
across the cretk, mounts-dun his burst, bet he was so grieved
by his discomfiture that he immediately dismounted and
jumped into the creek. lie was taken out and 'gain mount-
ed nu his hone, +hem he went a short distance, gut off and
tied his home, and again plunged into the creek. Ile was
taken out the second time and again mounted, when finding
he was not likely to succeed in this bummer, tie went off •
few yards and lay down by the fence until bis spies left him,
when be again renewed the attempt to thorn himself, and,
probably, match to his own satisfaction, succeeded; he not
being discovered until hr was oinking for the last time (hav-
ing gone some distance below where he made the first
attempt), and his body was not recovered until the neat
morning. It is said that the Indians are nut fully satisfied
with the above statement, a hole having been found un the
back part of the Indian's head, probably occasioned by a
spear white endeavouring to "spear Ain up and that
they have sworn vengeance against the white man, onkva
SalistarLiUti is glifell as some of them helieve that the
Indian was killed by the white man and thrown into the
creek. Nothing Serinti., however, is apprehended, as this
Indiana will nu doubt be pacified.—(New York Paper.)
