STRANGE DISAPPEARANCE OF A SHIPWRIGHT.—HIS CHILD LEFT HELPLESS.
A portstght ago, a shipwright named McCorruick who haß been residing for some time in a cottage of his own in Wellingtonstreet, left his home as was supposed to go to work, and has not since been heard of. He left his little girl, ten years of age, in his house with a pound of bread and a fourpenny piece. The child has no idea as to what has become of her father, and, were it not for a neighbour who has supplied her, day by day, with food, she might have starved. It is feared thab McCormick has met with an untimely end. He was a man of erratic habits and subject occasionally to absence of mind.
