STORY or FEMALE III ERoIsM-In the course of a
recent speech In Congress, by the Hon Joseph
Lane, OF Oregon, he related the following incident
| which occurred in the Indian war of Oregon:
While In Oregon last summer, I took occasion Ia
inquire o. the chief who was mainly instrumsu-
tai IN getting up this war, to learn the particulars
OF the fate of some Of our people who . appeared
in the war Of 1856, and of whom we had been
able to learn nothing.
When suggested to the agent, in the council,
that proposed to inquire into the fate of Mrs
Wagner, Mrs Haynes, aud others, he was inclined
70 think IL would raise the bitter feelings of the
Indians, but said that we could make the inquiry
told MIN that had passed through the county
where these people had lived aud that their friends
were very anxious TO learn their fate We in
quired In relation TO Mrs. Wagner who was a we'll
educated and handsome woman from New York.

Irdian tongue fuently.
She kept public house by the roadside. and

Indians informed US that the NOR ming of the 9th
OF October they came In sight of the house, where
they met some teamsters and packers, portion of

cargoes, as well as the animals, while she was
standing in the door.
As soon as they had murdered the people out.
side, they came towards the house, which was
strongly built Of hewn logs, aud bad a heavy
door, which fastened with cross bars. When
she saw them running towards the house, she
shut the door, and dropped the bar to their COM
ing in. They came to the door, and ordered her
to come out and bring her little girl. she said
mo-
Her husband was absent-and. by the way, be
was the only man on that road who escaped They
said that if she did not out they would shoot
her. She declined; and after some deliberation
they determined to set the house On fire The
house was directly enveioped in flames; and the
chief. who watched her through little window
told me that he saw her go to the glass and ar
range her hair, then take seat n the middle of
the room. fold her little girl in her arms, and wait
calmly until the roof fell in, and then they perish
ed in the flames together. Aud the statement was
confirmed by the people who found their remains
lying together in the middle of the house.

them from the Reporter are as follows
IA personal animosty existed between two

Monday night Philips barn was burnt, and
his partisass suspected Wilkinson of setting
it on fire. On this naked suspicion, they
went to the house Of Wilkinson, tore him
from his wife and children, bound his hands
behind his back, and cast him headlong into
the Iowa river and drowned him."
Over thirty residents Of Iowa City were
concerned in this horrible act Eleven Of
them had been arrested ct the latest date
