Dress— Dark tweed jacket, vest, and trowsers, round black felt hat, and elastic- side boots. In ease he may have met with foul play, I will feel obliged if you will be so good as to instruct your officers to search for said watch, and, if any trace found, communicate with D. M'DONALD, Superin- tendent. Police Chambers, Ayr, February, 16, 1883. ( 25798 m.— 47545.) ARYSHIRE CONSTABULARY. A WARRANT has been granted for the apprehension of the man hereafter described, who is an important witness in a case of murder, committed near Girvan, in this county, on the 29th of November last, which is to be tried before the Justiciary Court in Edinburgh, on the 19th instant:— Archibald M'Cormick ( is known to have assumed the name Archibald Adams since the date of the murder, and he may now be passing under that, or any other name), a labourer and a notorious poacher, age about 21 years, height about 5 feet 6 inches, a native of Castle Douglas, Stewartry of Kircudbright— he and his brothers used to frequent Hawick, Peebles, nnd Galashiels, in their poaching excursions— brown hair generally cut short, no whiskers, fair moustache, ordinary build, rather stout and thick set, small forehead, full round short face, short neck, small gray eyes deeply sunk, heavy eyebrows, sulky appearance, Scotch accent. He belongs to the Dumfries- shire Militia. This is the same Archibald M'Cormick whose description was circulated in Police Infor mation from Kirkcudbrightshire, dated 18th March, 1882, when he was wanted as an important witness in a case of murder committed at Threavt in that county : which case was tried before the Circuit Court at Dumfries, on the 27th April, 1882, and resulted in the conviction of Archibald M'Cormick's brother Joseph and another man— sentenced respectively to 10 and 20 years' penal servitude. Dress— When last seen in this county he was dressed in a brownish gray tweed jacket, dark gray marled tweed vest, snuff- coloured marled tweed trowsers, blue Stewarton cap with diced border and peak, white muffler, checked wincey shirt, strong heavy lacing boots with tackets. When at work is in the habit of wearing white moleskin trowsers( He left Girvan ( the neighbourhood of the murder) on Sunday the 3rd December, since which he has been traced to have worked at Lugar, in this county, from 9th to 13th December. On the evening of the latter date he left Lugar, and no further trace of him has been obtained. M'Cormick was a fellow- poacher and companion of the man charged with murder in the case referred to, and it is known that he is purposely keeping out of the way to avoid being used as a witness in the case. He may, therefore, for a time, take employment of any description open to him in any district. It is earnestly requested that immediately the most painstaking search and inquiry may be made for trace of this man, and that such may be continued until the date of the trial ( I9tli inst), or notification of his arrest is received. Should he be found and interrogated on suspicion of being the man wanted, he is likely to prove cool and ready in accounting for himself in a manner calculated to throw suspicion off. Police officers are, therefore, begged not to lose trace of any man apparently answering to the description until satis- fied by sufficiently exhaustive inquiry regarding his movements during the past nine weeks that he is not M'Cormick. This information has been very completely circu- lated with the Police throughout Scotland and the northern counties of England, and relative notices have been sent for insertion in the " Police Gazette," and the " Hue- and- Cry "; therefore, in communicating by telegram with other districts on this business, a reference to " Ayrshire Constabulary information of this date " would be understood. If found, or any trace of this person is obtained, it is requested information may be immediately sent by telegraph or otherwise to the Chief Constable of Ayrshire, at Ayr.
