      MOST EXTRAORDINARY CASE OF ABDUCTION . Liverpool . — Mr . Rushton and other magistrates ¦ were employed during Tuesday afternoon in tho investigation of a'transaction ' concerning which there has recently been much curious gossip in this town , but which , to the pa ; t es imp icated has now assumed a very serious aspoct The affair has been already slightly alluded to in the pnWic paptrs . and the investigation of Tuesday has unabled us to present our readers with a fill history of this extraordinary proceeding , which we shall do by laying btfjre them the material parts of the evidence .

      Tbe names of the parties in custody are John Orr . MGiil , John Osboine Q : ick , Thomas Wormand Rogerson . Richard Jonea , Margaret Jones , and Jane Clayton . Tne above prisoners were phced at the bar . The charge was , that the parde 3 had taken Miss Ann Crellin , of this t ) wn , a lady who wns reputed to possess a very large property , ( according to rumours , which have been rife , not less than £ 40 . 000 . , £ 50 000 , or £ 60 , 000 . ) away to GretDa-jjreen . wi . fxe she had , against her consent , and while under the influence of some potion which had been adminht- > red to hf-r , been married to the prisoner John Orr M'Gill . The individual last named Is abandsome and gentleman ! y-l « . oking young man , about thirty years old . Quick and R-i ^ erswn are also highly-respectable looking persons . J .. nes looks like a decent working man , End Mrs . Jones , hi 8 -wife , and Mrs . Clayton , are both r&speetabie looking women .

      Mr . Snowball sclu-. itor , appeared on behalf of Miss Crellin ; Mr . 0-oc-tt , soJicm-r , attended for M'Gill , Quick , and R ^ erson ; and Mr . Davenport , solicitor , was rtt lined for Jones , Mrs . Jonea , and Mrs . Clayton . Mr . Snowball said ho appeared on ba ^ a ' . f of Miss . Ann Creliin , who -charged ttie prisoners with felony i > having taken her . awiy against her consent ; v ? ith the iutention of marrjinc her , she being possessed of considerable propc-rty . The circumstances were these : — J . ^ st jfav Miss Cfeil ^ n rt-8 ' uie'Vin Bejmour-street , where the prisoner . Mrs . Junes , was in the habit of ' charing for her . " 3 JrA Julius , in the coukc of their intsreonrse , obta'ntd great influence over her , and at length introduced to Lor a man who culled himself Mart ' n , who prevailed ujon her to promise to marry him . Miss

      Crellm went with him to th « office of Mr . Thompson , on NewiDijtor' -bridco , for the purpose of arranging about the settlement . There she expressed her determination to hafe all her property settled upon herself , upen wh ch he nfased to have her . Afterwards , with rhe assistance of Mr . nnd Mrs . Jones , they obtained from her tbe i-uai of £ 2 bt , on the ground of a breach of promise of mariia ^ e . It subsequtntly turned out that t : iis was all a-fraud ou . Mi ^ s Urellin , as Martin was a married man . She took nit-asurea for the purpose of obtaining h ? r money b : ; ik aaain ; and a shoit time ago . Mrs . Jones called npon Miss Grellia , telling her that iha wov » id take her to her house , where Martin was waiting to rtfand hsr ft great portion of th ;; money . She went : but Martin was not there . Joaes took her

      to the htU ^ s Mr .-. C-J . yt .-n , where ehe was offered tome brandv . fc ^ he t-, uk a dose of it , and became insoE . Bible , and she rcc-ollecird nothing more till » Ve found htrself in bsd on one side cf the prisoner M'Gill , Mrs . Clayton being on thi other side , with her arms round M'Gill ' s neck . She fmnd then that she had a ring on her fl gcr ; and they told bur that she was married , and that she was at Gi > -tna Green ; but she had no recoll-.-ction how the ri : i ^ came there , or of anything that had transpired . Miss Cre'lin had met Quick at a huuse t-j which she went on some busine .-a , and be inv ^ tid her to his b'ms ^ on the fallowing evening , when they had suppwr , ai > d where M ^ Gill was introduced . Next day he twk them to Mr . Rogcrson ' s house , in B > unfiarv-pjace . Rouerson was a brother-in-law to

      M'GilL An escnrbion to Eurtmunt was projected , a :. d Mbs Crellin w : ts taken off with a party , consisting of Mr . R'girscn ' 8 sisier and family , to the bouse of Mr . Danl « vie . at Egrerount- They remained at Egrt-HK-nt all night , and n . xt morning , aft « r giving Miss Grellin brandy in her tea . and cbnmpngne after breakfast , they pressed her most per 3 eferingly to go to DaMin , which she declined . This was on the 2 nd of Marcb . When they found that they could not prevr . il on her to go to Dublin , they brought her ovrr to Liverpool , where they cave her more wine , and then proposed tliat sh « fcboud proceed to the steeple-chase . Having intoxicated her , they put h&r in a coach , nnd , instead of prre ^ edins to the steeple-chaw , they drove

      her to St . Paul ' s church . She desired ts know why ihey had brounht htr there ? Sbe was informed that eTerythi 7 ig tras prepared for her marriage . Sac < xpressed her surjns « at . this proceediiip , and g ; ud she never would be ruarrie-. l un ' tss t » ie whole of her property wore settled upon h-rself . They then took her to the ractis . On the 17-th of March he bad evidence to prove that she w : is in the power of Jones . She was rendered instnsble an : l taken to Gratna Green , where a form of marriage was peiformed ; and he should be able to prove the ofy ' ict of the prisoners , by letter which had been sent to tbe Liverpool Standard with an announcement of the marriage . He shouid prove that Miss Crellin was in their p- > wer on the I 7 th , and that ou the 19 th they were nvirried .

      Miss Crell n was caLed . She appeared to be about forty years cf age ; is th < . rt and rather stout in person , with strong features , which have once been handsome She was sworn . She stated that sha 'was possessed of propeny . She refilled lart year in Sejruour-street . The prisoner Mrs . Jones used to act as charwoman at her house . She rec « llected Martin beins introduced to her . Ha came with a la-. ly named MissShoane , with a ritw of ttking her house , he said he wouid take her hovs * . because he wab going to be married to Miss Stionne . Miss Shoauu &ilk-d upon her ( Miss Cr < = Hin ) , and showed her b-r weddi )> g-diess , and askod lior to be h-r bridesmaid . Mr . Martin called afterwards , and said it was an untruth , he did not intend-to marry her . He came a few d-iys after , and said he wished , to pay

      his t . ddresaes t ? ber ( . Miss Crellin ) . He called nearly every day . Sbe went to the Isle of Man on the 8 th of September ; Martin followed her there . She returned from the Isle of Man on the 10 th of November . Miss Crellin hire gave a somewhat lengthy detail of her movements to various lodging-houses , her stay in each being t-eiierilly abi ut a fortnight . At length , after , by the advice of Mrs . Jones , going to live next door to her , shewer . tt ) live in N-jit ^ n-street , which she was compelled to quit , because Martin and a person named Butkeley visited her , and the Jady who kept the house diii not l'ke their behaviour . Much evidence was given , apparently for the purpoBo cf showing how far Mrs . Jones had iuterpmsed in aJl Mits Crellin ' s affair * . At length it appeared that Maitin would only meet her at

      iirs Jcnea ' s house ; he would not meet her any where else . They went there frequently together . After a time , she ( Miss Orellin ) went to stay a few days with Mr ? . Jones . Martin was al ways looking out for lodgings for her at this time , and she went , at bis instigation , to Mi-b . C uyton ' s . where Martin hiinsbif lodged . It was done thus : thvy wne out looking for lodgings and , after an un- 'ucces-fnl search , Martin said , "We had better gut > . Mrs . Clayton ' s , and look for lodgings , to-morrow . " Thi-y . weut there . Martin pressed her to be married . She and Martin and Mrs . Joces went to ths < ffice of Mr . Thompson , attorney , Newington Bridge , She had then accepted tbe addresses of Marti' -. Mr . Thompson had always advised ber to have her propeitv settled unon herself . Wben they

      f ; ot to Tts-inpson-a , Martin Gilltd Mr , Thompson out , and , on his return to the tiBce , he ( Martin ; said he bad cLanaert his mind , for ho wanted half the property to be settled upon him . The affair was hereupon brufctn off aoi-1 she i Miss Crellin ^ returned to Mk . Jones Lvjase , waither Mattiu followed her . He said bhe h ;> . < l dtc'ated helore witnesses , that sho had pronii ^ e . 1 him marriage , and he was going to take proceeiaii 2 a agai-ist her for a breach of promise . Mr . Jones , . \! t * . Junes , and Mr . Parkinson were present . Martin Siiid if I . would g : v « Liuj £ 250 ha would take no more pMceedin ^ . She gave Mmtm £ 250 on the following fr . i } -. — . ir snowball here produced a document , a portion of which -was reaa by Mr . Rushton , It appeared t- > he a promise from Martin to forego any claim for a

      br-acn of promise of marriage from Miss Crelin . Another document was also produced , the purport of wbich did not transpire Mi » 3 Crellin said that both those d ' -cuments were virawa out by the prisoner J .. n-8 . M trim having concluded his negociation , deputed . Junes then said that ! . e held . a paper in his possession which wiuM rendar the prouiise which Martin had given b-r nuuatory , and by which she would still bo liable to rw sued for a ortach of promise ; but If Bhe wouiu i ; ive titn the £ 20 . h-j would give that paper up to her . Ha mid it was a Hjtc which he had made , the nature > f which was . th t she would still be compelled to marry Martin , but if sho wculd srive him the £ 20 , he woukl aes'r . jy tbr . t paper , and she wonld then be tof = ! . sue »>« t the ntxt day to Heywobd ' s bauk . and
