KAN MISSINO.—Some months ago it will be remembered Mr. Edward White, of King-street, received hurts in the quarries to three of his fingers, and ultimately lost the httle finger, the tips of two others were also hurt, but were getting well again. Mr. White, however, seems to have imbibed a notion that he would not be able to work any more, and though, as Dr. McLean informs us, this was quite incorrect, for he was getting restored, the unfortunate man became quite depressed in his mind, refused his food, and sometimes would not put his clothes on. A month ago he got very much better, and has been out by himself, but even then he was always vary shy of people, and would turn away even from friends or those be knew very welL He also talked of suicide, and was evidently afflicted with melancholy; promising to re down to " Elijah's (Mr. Clears, three or four minutes' walk) his wife followed him, and found he was' not at Mr. Clears but on the beach; she, however, induced him to return. On Thursday he was missed altogether, and on enquiry it was found that he was seen near the railway station gate at half-past one; at three he was seen about a mile out on the Weymouth Road, and the keeper of the Ferry-bridge says he was walking up and down in front of the house all Thursday afternoon. He was lost sight of and dever returned to his house. People were out in search of him, and the "gut" of the Mere was dragged on Friday and Saturday afternoons, but without affording any clue. Mr. White is about 56 years old. He has a son and daughter grown-up, the son living at a distance. _  ..-6014.C711T AT THE GROVE SmiooL—On Thursday ev= last • concert took place at the Grove School, on of the fund for lighting St. Peter's Church with gas.
