ABDUCTION 1t was stated some few days since |
that person named Addison Ellting, had dis-ap-
peared from Mount Moria, near the narrOws OF the
Lacl:awaxen. The responsibility Of Mr.. Ellting's
character, and his general domestic habits, created
much surprise at his unaccountabe disappearance.


1t is now stated that Mr. z. was met in Nora, on
the 25th ult by stranger, who requested to ask
him at particular tavern that evening, relative to
some business connected with contract Tor work
on the Delaware canal After nine O'Clock, he left
a store in which he had transacted some business,
with an intention of proceeding to the tavern desg
mated by the stranger. In crossing the Bridge
he accosted by person who demandediof him
whether his name was Eilting-he refused direct
answer, when he was assailed, knocked down,
and thrown into large box. lying in a covered
wagon-it is said, such used by pedlars.
In this box, which was Of dimensions to permit him
to sit up right, he was confined tiOenty-three
days, fed on bread and water, and permitted to
take the air only in the night, when it was dark
to distinguish with certainty the features Of his


kdnappers. He was released from his confne-


ment on the night of the 18th instant, about three


miles from this city, in very exhaused state, and


requiring careful and skilful medical aid. His pock-


ct book, which contained about fifty dollars in mo-


ney, and some papers Of consequence, was not re-
turned to him. 1t is stated that there were three
|persons concerned in the abduction-two wearing


coatees, and third a surtout. One of the horses
was dark coored, and the other grey.


We have given the story as it is now currently re
ported, without exaggeration. 1t is proper to add
that mention is made of an attempt to compel Mr.,
Eting to attest to the truth of Mr.. Morg's book
and the imagined fate of that person frequently


quoted as precedent for the usage which he suf


fered.

every days report confirms former assertion, tina
: lf the change should continue for the next year
