Brooks residence. Al ihs moment Mir. Hall turned his head, and perceived that the gig containing his lady was proceeding at q ! rapid rate on the road towards Hiddersfirld 1; upon which he sprung from between his companions and crossed the field tO overtakp the gig. and, as he approached, hecalled out " Whoa whoa !' and the horse knowing the voice of its former indalgent keeper, imme- diately stood still and obstinately refused 10 budge. The young lady's keepers, hearing MT. Halls approach, took her from the gig into an adjoining house, (Mr. Shaw's) her l. dignant husband following ani fighting his way through the door and passage of the house. They, however, managed to cause him to be ohstructed and detained while they got her through the window. screaming pi,e. ously, and placed her again in the gig and drove off. '...
 In half an hour MT. Hall was turned out of the house, and knowing that his wife had re- gently been on a visit to MT. Kelner's at the Carr House, Huddersfeld. he concluded they had conveyed her thiiher. He, therefore, proceeded on foot, and arrived at the Carr House little after midnight. He repeated ly paced the front of the house, and was per ceived. Soon after two o'clock on Wednes- day morning, gig, containing two men and female drove from the yard, and Mr. Hall ran and seized the horse by the reins; two of the Huddersfeld watchmen were called and feed to take him off, and hold him while the gig got away. They did so but tw O other individuals coming up and heinz informed of the cause of his being detainel. they at tncksd the watchmen, a scut1le ensled, and Mir. Hall was released, when he immediate ly set off in the direction the gig had taken. He. however. never overlook them, 1or was he able to trace them through any of the toll gates and it has since been ascertained that the female in the gig was not his wife, but only one of Mir. Kelner'S servants, who was placed there in order to decoy him from his premises It was also discovered, that a chaise conveyed Mrs. Hall from Hudders- field to Manchester, at midnight on Thurs. day week, when it was observed that the in- dividuals who had charge of her had had work to pacify her. This circumstance ren- ched the ears of Mir. Hall, and he started at ten o'clock on Friday night from Mirtield by omnibus to Huddersfeld, and from thence in company with two friends by gig to Man. chester. They then proceeded by tho first train on Saturday morning to Liverpon':- Owing, however, to his incxperience and mismn nagement, he returned on Wednesday night last, without having accomplished the object of his mission. An eminent solicitor however, has now taken his case in hand and if the young lady is not produced in a few days. it is more than probable that legnI proceedings will be,commenced against the parties implicated in her abduction. We understand that the young lady possesses from el5OOO to E2O,00O hequeathed to her by decensed uncle in America, and inde- pendent of her luther. IL is supposed by those most competent to form an opinion, that she is either in the Isle of Man, or has been shipped for America. Her relations, however, refused to give any information on the subject; consequently. it remains an ab- solute mystery.
