ThrIIIIng Adventure on the
Plains,

A San Francisco print relates the circum-
stances Of most heroic aEd intrepid act, on
the part Of 9 lady, which was performed last
month in the Indian country. About the 10th
Of March q telegrAphic dispatch wAS published
in the papers, tellirg the story, to the effoct
that the overland mail stage coach had besn
attacked BY Indians near Canon Station, and
she driver killed On the 25th, lady named
Mrs John II Gerrish, with her child, arrived
in San Francisco from the East, via the over
land route, and put up at the Occidental Ho-
tsL She was the only passenger, beside her
little one, in the very same coach on the box
Of which the driver was shot BY Indians The
dispatch, therefore, was true, but the whole
truth was not told The details Of the affair,
as narrated by this lady, are most thrilling,
and berself the principal actor in them. In
simultaneously with the shooting OF the driver
Mrs Gerrish lsNped out Of the stage, leaving
her child within. At the same moment, four
or five shots more we're fred by the Indians
one Of which struck horse in the head aud
he fell. She instantly cut him loose mount
ed the box, and sSizing the reins, applied the
whip vigorously. The driver, on being shot,
fell back into the boot behind the seat The
three horses we're put to the top Of their
speed, and continued running for about two
miles, when luckily they encountered another
stage from the opposite direction, In this
was number OF soldiers, who instantly came
10 the aid Of the herolne, when she and her
child we're released from their perious posi-.
ton Mrs Gerrish is young woman and Of
delicate physique; but her conduct during this
frghtful adventure exhibited courage and
presence of mind rarely equsled, and never
surpassed, by the Eterner sex She is native
of Ohio, and had been on visit to ber Allan
tic friends. She went North to join her hus-
band, who is at present in Oregon

The butter panic at the east continues In
Boston and Providence many people have
pledged themselves to abstain entirely from
the use Of butter, so long as it is held above
thirty cents pound. A good idea, and one
which will commend itSelf to others. Butter
went down three cents in the New York mar
kets, owing to the large number Of people who
have determined uot 10 pay the extortionate
demands Of dSirymOn and hucksters. In Chi
cago butter is selling at from forty three to
forty.6vs cents at Wholesale and 6ity cents al
retail
