SAD MTsTERY.-Last Tuesday little daughter
OF Mr.. Thomas Sutton, printer, of Nassau street,
while at school in Morrsana, where her parents re-
side was admonished by her teacher for some tring
error. Being an extremely sensitive creature, she
feared that her parents would become acquainted
with the fact that she had been in disgrace and ex-
pressed good deal Of solcitude about the matter.
At noon, when the school took a recess for dinner,
the child left as usual. But from that hour nothing
has been seen or heard of her. The woods around
Morrsania have been secured andthe waters dragged
but the mystery is as deep as ever Whether in her
distress she committed self-destructon, or has met
an accidental DEATH whether she has been kidnapped
or wandered away, no one knows. All inquiries
have thus far brought tidngs Of the lost child to
the saddened household.
