ItriWal Trent«*f u Ituuglitrr It*. numIij- ul llir fr'u liter uu«l Hi I mite A l*nitlt|t» l iui*.It will be remembered by tin* readers (jf tin* Stanimkp that we published, last week, an account of tin* inhuman treatment (if a young lady by lur father. .John Alabins, in Taylor lownship, Ihu-rbon enmity, ami subsetpiently that the neighlxirs had assembled and driven Mahius from Ins lmino and razed Ids house. We have since learned that Mabius had forbidden the visits to his daughter by a voting man named Frank Neil, and that in comeqnenee the girl had left home and was employed at service in several families in Die neighborhood, at which she received the visits of young Niel, and that at out' time Mahius came in contact with the young man and commenced a tirade of abuse upon him, in consequence of which Niel gave him a sound thrashing. Afterward, the father searched out the daughter and brought her home, and gave her the unmerciful heating described by ns. Her body and 1 were bruised in such a manner that could not dics.s herself w ithout the assist unee of some of the neighbors.It appears now that it was not aJorte the visits of tin* young man which led to the inhuman treatment of tho the daughter. It has transpired that father is partially insane, caused by long and tailored study in regard to Die invention of a perpetual motion, and was fearful that young Neil would gain IosRC8sion of the valuable information that Mabius supposed he had discovered. Upon other subjects Mubins is represented as rational, but his mind is ho completely turned upon the perpetual motion affair tlmt he lias 1 xvn investigating, that ho has been for some time suspicious of those who approached him and stopped upon his premises. If the circumstances, as rciatedttb us, are true, Mahius is truly to hflHied, and H is hoped some moujtK/fS* *M‘ adopted to euro him of It^ppfPrntion.The young limy, wo understand, is recovering rapidly from the wounds and bruises she received at the hands of her father, and she yet remains true in her affection fog^ the young man, who has stood by faferin her affliction, and wo trust she may eventually be rewarded by a matrimonial alliance with the man of her choice.clow •Sul * andT Foil SellFcen
