A sInsnlnr AbduclIon

The Massachusetts papers tell story Of the
abduction Of young lady, employed in factory
Rt Newton, in tnat State, reminding one OF the
middle ages As the young lady whose name is
EliZabe b Ha@ley, was returning from the mill
of Daley ~ Co, about noon on Thursday Of last
week. she met by man iu carryall who
made quiries about certain ouse, aud finally
persuaded her to accompany bin TO the place
designated. After passing the house, the girl
pecame frightened and endeayOred 10 jump out
but was restrained by the man, who held her
down firmly. placing one hand over her mouth
and guiding his horse with the other hand. f.
ter going considerable distance-how far he
cannot tell-they stopped al house which, as
she expressed 1t, was painted brown and stood
upon babk, having steam railroad In the rear
Here she Was met by a we'll dressed lady and lit

AT eyery term of Court, the inconVemences
suffered by those who are Obliged to attenu H.
are freshly manifested, and once more there is
n strone disposition to remove the County puiio-
;nqs to Wilmington This is not 80 mueh q
movement among the people Of this city as by
those in the country, generally, though II is per
fectly true that our citizens are put to great IN
convenience and loss whenever they are Obliged
To attend the Courts at New Castle, as jurors
witnesses. or parties to suits, over one-haiI lhe
people of New Castle county reside either with
the city limits, or in the immediate suburbs and,
from the natural causes which affect crowded
population. more than half the criminal business
is from Wilmington
The fact is therefore plain that by requiring
ali interested in the civil and criminal business
of this city to attend Court at New Castle, great
loss and annoyance are inflicted on over nail oi
the people Of the county, while for those whe
reside in great part of the outlying rural dis
triots. it would be quite as convenient and CHEAP
to come to Wilmington, and for many business
reasons more to their satisfaction. 1t is saie &c
say that the present location OF the comfy seal
suits lust about one-eighth OF the populaton OF
the County, very much in convenienees nVe
eighths, and does not well accommodate the re
naming two-eighths.
All this we say without the slightest desire L
possess the county seat, for its own sake.
our people did not have to continually attend 1t
we should be glad to let it be- where the venerf
BILE original settlers placed it, two hundred
Years ago. But the annoyance caused TO 81
large proportion Of the public will compel &C
tion, Ultimately and there is no good reasoi
why it should suffer further delay.

The Georgetown Journal, under the caption OF

Commercial every time a thief gets his back
whipped, are unworthy of 30 good paper
Does not the Commercial know that this ialse
nympathy In the press Is every day turning loose

man to be whipped than to be proven thief :
When leading journals excuse CRIME, deprecate
the law and Justice which inhicts punishment,
our laws have able apologists."
We beg the journal to understand that we
publish nothing sensational about the whippings
but simply report the plain, unyarnished facts
There is no "false sympathy about it, unles'
