Hur ine K, Dezamber25—1a m d act of e arama iu woica ayoung Peunsylvania farmer is the principal fizure, was revealed yester- day at the police headquarters. On the 8th of Jast September, a tall coun tryman, some 30 years o.d, applied 0 Superiotendenc Walling for help in couductivg & searci for his fither, trom whom he had reason to belive he had been stolen in infancy. He said -hat his name was Frauk Cogau; ‘udt he was a farmera: Great Bond, Pa. He had been br ught up on the farm of Michael Cleary, in the neigh borhood of the village of Kirkwood, and as a lad had always been made to believe that he was the latter’s son. In a quarrel last summer Cleary dis- closed the fact that the young man when a child had been placed in his care by a ueighbor in this city. He saiu that Cogau's mother had died and his father had gone away, and that he (Cleary,) had then moved into Pennsyivania, keeping his own counsel and giving his nameto the boy. The young farmer immediately came to this city in ssarch of his father, and Superintendent Walling referred him to the authorities in the bureau of vital staristics, besides giv- ing him the assistance of the police de- partment, Ia duetims confirmation was obtained of the part of the story toid by Cleary, tut strong suspicion was aroused that instead of having been a legitimately aiopted child, be had been abducted as « result of a conspiracy to rob him of property left bim by his mother. The record of Mrs. Cogan’s death in June, 1845, was found. At thattime her husband kept a liquor storeat 80 DBMurray street, bui on the outbreak of the Mexican wur he joined the army of volunteers, leaving the child in the care of his friena, Micha-l Cleary, then living iu 22d street. He did not reurn untll years after, and then Cleary had disappeared wich the child. He searched for them in vain, and then in tuin bec e 1bs¢ to his friends. For tw. months young Cug .u patient ly foll wed these clews, aided by the p lice in every ci'y which he visited. A few days ago his efforts were crown- ed with success. He found hia fa*her @ prosperous tea merchant in Phila delphia, and convinged him of his identity. <heir muto®l joy was great, and it was almost with tears that the young man related his good fortune yesterday to his friends. He founa other relatives, and alsv discovered the whereabouts of au uncle who is tuought to have been concerved in his abduction.
