ATTEMPTED ABDCCTIoN.-Two young
men of this city, who names we with
hold for the present, have won an un.
enviable noteriety by attempting to a5'
duct a Young girl from her home ON the
Ohio side Of the river, intending to In
dlce her to enter on lie of shame in
this city. They wrote letter to the
girl appointing a meeting with her fo'
last Thursday night, directing her &c
leave an answer to their note at the toll
house in Bridgeport. This letter fell
into the hands of the girls father, who
had a reply TO the letter written and left
at the toll house as desired. The men
about dark Thursday evening, went &c
place appointed for the meeting, and
found, instead OF the girl, her fathel
and several Of his friends. In a few
minutes there was as lively row IL
that neighborhood as one would wish
TO see. Suffice to say, those two young
men have lost all desire for abductine
Ohio girls whose fathers strike from the
shoulder.

The MOCHA COFFEE Por.-There is
no one who does not like good cup Of
coffee, and more time, science and abll-
ity has been used in perecting coffee
pot which should thoroughly extract
the juice of the berry and retain the
rich aromatic oil, than was ever en-
ployed on any one article of human
continuance and convenience. The ex-
perience of years has eliminated in the
production of the Mocha Steam Coffee
Pot, that John Reid, at No. los Mark
ct street, nearly opposite the REGISTER
office, offers our cilizens. We are using
it, and have no hesitsncy in pronounce
ing it the best coffee pot ever invented,
1t gives you delicious cup off coffee with
the use OF less than one.third the coffee
required in an ordinary coffee pot, and
lie so arranged that a cold dish of coffee
is an impossibility. Reader, if you de-
sire the best pot ever invented call at
Reids and buy one Of these Mochas.
We have tried all kinde, we think, and
have never used anything that coulc at
all equal it.

In TIE INDIAN BUsiNEss.-One Of
our citizens-let US call him Smithkins
has two boys who are given to the
exciting but perDicious reading OF stor>
les OF Indian and border life, such as
the Mysterious Squaw, or the Squeedunk
Squatter's Stratagem; the Wailing War
hoop of the Western Wilderness the
Scarlet Scalp OF Sarah Smith, and a
vast number of others OF the same sort
of sanguinary ten cent literature. The
bows have become 30 inbued with these
caricatures of Indian life that each is
continually avoiding the others attempt
to raise a revenue tax on his hair, and
never awakes in the morning without
drawing bis hand over his head to as
sure himself that his brother had not
scalped him during the night. They
are always ready to 60 out on the
prairies hunting for the noble red man.
The other day Smithkius was reclin-
ing in his easy chair, taking his after
dinner nap, with handkerchief over
his head. He was awakened by an ex-
traordinary noise and jumped from bis
chair just in time to prevent his young
eat, who was dressed in red table cloth,
and had his face covered with blue
atreaks, obtained rom his mothers in
digo bag, from taking the whole top. Of
his head off with the carving knife.
The elder boy, hid in lhicket, COM
posedlof three chairs, the cradle and
card table, was at,ired in a blanket
shawl and a handful of rooster feathers,
flourishing a Ratchet with a pe:ce bitten
out OF the blade, and uttering the dread
warwhoop.
The fond parent concluded he would
break this sort of thing up, so next day
he borrowed an Indian costume from
friend, who was going to wear it to a
masquerade bail, and slipping around
the back way, with a terrible yell, jump.
ed over the fence into the yard where
his boys were practiciug with the bow
and arrow. He thought TO brighten
them, don't you see. Well, he did scare
the little one, for he gave sqrawl that
would have broken any Indians heart
with envy that heard it. and ran for the
house and his mothers protecting pres
ence as if ten thousand Spotted Tails
were alter him. The elder boy gazed
on the approaching Indian and thought
he saw Immortality in the dim distance.
His arrow had a shoemaker's pegglng
awl in the head OF it. That eldest son,
with a capabihty far beyond his years
drew that arrow to the head and let
flicker. The loving father jumped up
IN the air about SIX feet and roared like
a bull. The awl-pointed arrow Was
sticking in the calf OF the old mans
leg, don't you understand:
The loving father goes round on
crutch now, and he swears that he will
cure those boys or kill 'em. Moral
suasion is the old mans best grip now'
aud he proposes to use moral suasIon
on them until the prices ofrawhldes, rat
