ABDUCTION OF A YoUNG GIRL FROM her
PARENTs.-A man by the name of Adam
Aiyer abducted young lady from Broad
albin, n, Y, about three weeks ago, and
brought her to Ohio. While in Broadsl.
bin. he was employed as farmer. The
lady Tor rather the girl, for she is only
fourteen years of age has dark ewes.
darkish hair, fair complexion, and is of
pretty soGd size. Her name is Rebecca
Snyder. Niver itook the girl while she
was away from home, without the lznowl-
edge or consent of her parents, but very
much against their viii. Niver left a
wife in Broadalbin. The girls father
followed them to Rochester, and there
learned that they had left for Ohio, some
where in the vicinity OF Cleveland. The
girl was of previous chaste character.--
While at Rochester, she and Niver passed
as husband and wife, or rather coha bitcd
as such, staying in one room, &c. From
these facts, it is concluded safely that she
was taken or inveisled for the purpose o.
prostitution. 1t is hoped our police will
be on the look out for this scamp, and
arrest him. The laws of New York are
severe against this offence, and it is hoped
he may be brought to justice.-CleUeland

lHE CHARACTER OF A GENTLEMAN
The forbearing the use of power is q sure
attribute Of true gentleman-indeed,
we may say that power, physical, moral,
purely social or political, is one of the
touchstones Of genuine craftsmanship.
The power which the husband has over
the wife-in which we must include the
impunity with which he NAV be unkind
to her the father over his children, the
teacher over his pupils, the old over the
young, and the young over the aged,
the strong over the weak, the officer over
his men, the master Of a vessel over his
hands, the magistrate over the citizen,
the employer over the employed, the
rich over the poor, the educated over the
unlettered, the experienced over the con-
fftIDg, the keeper Of a secret over whom
it touches, the gifted over the ordinary
man even the clever over the silly--the
forbeariDg and inoffensive use of all this
power or authority, or total abstinence
from it, where the case admits il, will
show the gentleman in a plain light.
Every traveller knows at once whether a
gentlemanly or rude officer is searching
his trunk. But the use Of power docs
not only form a touchstone; even the
manner in which an individual enjoys
e. rtain advantages over others is test.
No gentleman can boast Of the delights
of superior health in the presence Of q
lansuid patient, or speak of good luck
within hearing Of man bent by habiUual
misfortune. Let a man who happily en-.
joys the advantages Of pure and honest
life, speak of it to fallen, criminal fel-
low being, and you will soon see whether
be be, in addition 10 his honesty, a gen
ueman or not. The gentleman does not
neediessly and increasingly remind an Of
fender of a wrong he may have committed
against him; he can not only forgive-he
can forget: and he strives for that noble
ness of self and mldnesS of q character
which imparts sufficient strength to let
the past be truly the past. He will
never use the power which the knowledge
of an offence, false step, or an unfortu-
nate exposure Of weakness gives him
merely TO enjoy the power OF humiliat-
ing his neighbOr. A true man of honor
feels humbled himself when he cannot
help humbling others. 'a
