FEMALE HERoIsM.-ln beautiful little clearing
surrounded by extensive forests, on the English
river, above the mill OF A. c. Moore, Esq in the
town of Moores is situated the newly erected cot
tage OF Asahel Starks a hardy pioneer of the will
derness. Business requiring the absence of Mr..
Starks for week. his wife and three small children
were the only occupants OF the house. As night
approached, large hslf-iamished wolf was dis
covered near the house the door was closed, but
by constant growing SO alarmed the family that
they took refuge in the garrett. He retired to the
woods the dawn of day, and Mrs. Starks sent her
little son to Young's, at the MILL for a gun, which
she charged heavily with buck shot. At evening
the wolf again approached the dwelling when Mrs
Starks raised the window, and taking deliberate
aim, shot the wolf dead the spot. She suffered
only slight injury by the heavy recoil. So much
for the Wing matrons of Moores.- Platfsb,rg Whtg.
