A Story OF Female Heroisn,.

In the course OF a recent speech in Congress
by the Hon. Joseph Lane. of Oregon. hs rela-
ted the following incident. which occurred in
the Indian war of Oregon
While in Oregon last summer, took occa-
sion to inquire of the chief, VINO was mainly in
strumental in getting up this war; TO learn the
particulars OF the fate of some Of our people
who disappeared in the war of 1855, aud of
whom We had been able to learn nothing.
When suggested to the agent, in the coun-
Gil, that proposed 10 inquire Into the fate OF
Mrs. Wagner, Mrs. Haynes, aud others, he was
inclined TO think it would raise the bitter feel
ings OF the Indians, but said that we could make
the inquiry. | told him that l had passed
through the country where these people had
lived, and that their friends were very anxious
to learn their fate. We inquired 10 relation to
Mrs. Wagner, who was well-educated aud
handsome woman from New York. who had
lived long in the country, aud spoke the Indian
tongue fiuently,
She kept public house by the roadside, and
the good cheer which she always furnished
made II place where travellers delighted to
stop. The Indians Informed us that on the
morning of the 9th Of October, they came in
sight Of the house. where they met some team
sters and packers, portion of whom they mur-
dered destroying the wagons and cargoes, az
well as the animals, while she was standing n
the door.
As soon as they had murdered the people
outside, they came towards the house, which
was strongly built of hewn logs, and had
heavy door, which fastened with crossbars.-
When she saw them running towards the house
she shut the door and dropped the bars to pre-
vent their coming in. They came to the door
and ordered her to come out, aud bring her lit
tie girl She said no"
Her husband was absent--and, by the way,
he was the only man on that road who escaped.
They said that it she did not come ont they
would shoot her. She declined. aud after some
delberation, they determined to set the house
on fire. The house was directly enveloped ia
flames; and the chief, who watched her through
little window. told me that h. saw her 20 TO
the glass and arrange her hair, then take a seat
in the middle Of the room, fold her little girl in
her arms aud wait calInly until the roof fell in,
and they perished in the flames together, And
the statement was confirmed by the people who
found their remains lying together in the mid

AN INCREASE OF THE NAvY.-An increase oi
the American Navy is warmly advocated in va
rious quarters. Should" observes the New
York Journal of Commerce, "the result prove
that the recent high-banded measures in the
Gulf are fully authorized by the British Gov
ernment, few persons would hesitate to recon
mend very large and immediate addition &c
the naval force of the country, for although we
can hardly conceive OF course of policy on the
part OF Great Britain which shall presistently
interfere with our rights, II is now. as ever. the
part Of wisdom in making demands for repars-
tion, to be prepared to enforce them BY the
mode recognized among nations. and By which
only we can make ourselves respected BY both
friends aud foes. In this view. therefore, If the
extraordinary acts of the British officers. in
boarding and searching American vessels shal
not be diravowed by the English Government
it will BECOME US to prepare in the most speedy
manner for the protection Of our rights, and u
contend at the sea az wen as by land, With any
power which may be spPOsedt to o."
