| bank INTO the river, near where he was
standing, and reaching his hand into the
water, caught the wolf by the hind legs,
and raised him upat arms length. This
was a moment of eminent peril. For the
wolf doubly aroused by his new enemy,
and the dogs stimulated by the assistance
other new ally, fight took place in the
water, that utterly deies all description.
As tho wolf would turn TO snap Mr.. Ruff
ner, he would BY raising the hind legs,
plunge his head under water-and when
the wolf would raise himself to seize his
arms, his faithful dogs would lay hold for
a moment and prevent it. Thus the Ter
rible fight went on for some minutes. TIL
at last Mr.. Rufiner perceived the point OF
rock near the waters edge, and within
a few feet of him; he then, watching the
favorable moment, by one powerful mus.
cuar effort, swung the wolf entirely over,
and thrashed it's head and back against
the rock, with such force as to stun, II not
to kill it. But 10 render the work COM
plete he still held on with one hand, whilst
with the other he grasped a stone, with
which he effectualy broke his skull.
Mr.. Ruffner then threw the wolf over
his shoulder, and returned home with his
bloody victim and wounded dogs, but
without hims { receiving single scratch,
IN this unheard.of, naked, hand TO teeth,
snap and smash, wolf-hght.
He brought the skin to Luray; the next
day, where saw it spread out on the floor,
and heard him with his peculiar and mimi
table phrase and gesture, recount the par
of that exciting scene. Generous,
brave, and powerful as lion--may he
long long live TO ght his own and his
country's battle; and to kill he wolior

proposed survey of the boundary line, I'M
der the authority ofthe Government! ofthe
State Of Name, has actually been COM
menced, under the direction of Mr.. Deane.
The persons employed are accompanied
by a partyof Indians and American cltl-

beginning of tho month. Thence they
proceeded up the Grand River. crossed
the portage 10 the Ristigouche River, and
descending thence, they proceeded to the
imaginary highlands, near the River 81.

object of this commission of survey TO DO
nothing more than TO ascertain, by actual
examination, the practcability OF running
the boundary line according to the con-
struc,ion ofIhe treaty of Client; and adds
that it were to be wished that such an ex-

AN ELoPEMENT.--The Boston Advo-
cate says:--" A young lady, the daughter
of the Hon. --, of Lynnfeld, left
her fathers house few days since, in
rather a singular manner. Miss n
went, as she stated, to visit her friends
in Danvers. After some days, as she did
not return, inquiry was made, but nothing
could be learned concerning her. Soon
however, letter was received from her,
dated at New York, in which she wrote
that she was married to young Scotch
man, who had been her fathers hired
man for some two or three years-and
that they were then on their way far West.
The affair has occasionedno small excite
ment IN the little vllage-but as the
young man had few hundred dollars in
his possession, and is good farmer, and
good character. we have no doubt they
will "driue good business" at the West.
Many worse runaway match has happen

The THREE EYED GIRL--We are
informed that the wife of poor, but
respectable citizen, residing IN Hunters
Court, Southwark, was delivered OF ie-
male child few days since, with three
eyesi This astonishing circumstance
has occasoned degree of sensation IN
the neighborhood that cannot be DESERT
bed. Two OF its eyes are represented as
being 10 the usual part OF the lace WINE
the additional one is placed just in the
centre Of its forehead. It's remarkable
too that the eyes are neither ofthem alike
in color-one being blue, one hazel, and
one dark eye. =,
We remember nothing Of similar
kind, except in the collection of the Br''
tish Museum. Sir Hans Sloan used to
exhibit a child with three eyes, but one
we believe, was fictitious. -SP'r" OF tn

ABOLITION.

We insert below an article from sh,
Lynchburg virginlan embodying recort
Of us much infamy as would crush, at ones
aud forever, any association less iananti
cal, less accessible to truth md reason, Of
less madly bent on ruin and mischief thar
the Aboliiionists.
James 6. Whittier, tho author of the
| narrative Of James Williams, has by ihs
vigor of his intellect, as shown by his nu
merous writings in prose and poetry, wor
for himself highly respectable standing
in American literature. Can il be, thai
he has knowingly and wilfully descended
from such position, and consented 10
lend his name TO the publication and pro.
pagation Of statements, at which reason,
truth, and even probability, revolt! Or
can i, be that his moral perceptions, and
every attribute Of his intelligence have
been SO beclouded, as to allow him TO be.
lieve the narrative he has written and pub
llshed In either case what must he feel
upon finding his brother Aboil.ionis,s re.
pudia,ing the book, and prohibiting its sale
or circulation. Whether he has been the
miserable tool and dupe ola fugitive slave
or whether he has by falsehood sought to
make tools md dupes of others, his publ
cation has failed of lis effect by reason of
its own enormiiy, and his name stands
covered with indellble iniamy and dis
grace.
We believe that, flower the abollonsts
should get the upper hand in the North,
that section ofihe Union will soon have
cause sorely to repent its unwarranted IN
reference with The domestic institutions
Of the South. We do not doubt that
large proportion (perhaps the larger) Of
those who aid in tho assault upon tho
peace Of the South, are honest but mis-
guided men, but il is by no means impro-
bable that its flames are famed for some
political design. IF so, and the natural
consequences should follow its spread, the
misery will fall upon those who have
made il and they will have for their conso.

ABOLITION FRAUD.

ABOLITION FRAUD.
Some two years ago, James q. Whit
tier, one of the finest American poets, and
who, until he soled his brilliant pumage,
and weakened his vigorous wing, by de-
sccnding from the lofty regions of Parnas-
sus to dabble in tho dirty pool OF Adolf
ton fauaticism, was honored every where
| for his genius, gave to the public book,
! purporting to BIZ the " Narrative Of James
! Williams" relative 10 whichthero have
recently been some curious developments.
This james Williams was runaway
slave, who, escaping to New York, and
there falling into the hands of the Aboll
tionlsts, pretended that he was sold BY his
owner, the proprietor of large plantation
in Powhatan County, TO trader, and car
ried to Greene County, Alabama, whence
he escaped, utter having suffered the most
unheafd OF cruclties. The Narrative,
which purports to be strictly authentic,
and which is written in a sly lie OF beauty
and energy well calculated to interest
the intelligent classes of tbs community,
claims 10 give true account OF The social
and domestic habits, manners and morals
of the Southern people. And no one can
have any conception of.he horrid black
ness of the picture which is skeiched, I'M
less he reno the work himself, or al least
those portions Of il which we have met
with. Murder, rape adultery, incest, aud
cruelty in lis most iEgenously elaborate
forms. are described as Of almost univer-
sal occurrence--as characteristic OF the
Southern STAKEHOLDER, WHO, indeed, only
ceases TO be monster, because all OF
them are alike criminal and brutal.
That such a story should have obtain
ed credence for moment would be won

migb,iesl minds enslayed by prejudice.

cism that an ignorant slave converts him
into a passive tool, for his own emolu-
tnent, and certainly for his sport and
scorn? 1t is Illuminating 10 human inlei-

Southern people TO the Diet estation and
reprobation Of the world, as but shade
less deeply stepped in brutal excuses
than the Sodomites of old, who for their
sins, we're consumed by special visitation
| of Divine vengeance!
A short time since, however, enquiries
we're set on foot, by those who knew that
this ingeniously wrought fiction was a
base libel upon Southern character in or.
