SPECIAL NOTICE. FUGITIVE OFFENDERS. A recent case has come under the notice of the Editor, in which a person whose apprehension was sought in England, and who was described in the POLICE GAZETTE, gave himself up to the Colonial Police. The prosecutor declined to take any further action in the matter, but the case necessitated the despatch of two telegrams, the cost of which had to be re- funded by him. To avoid such expense, the Editor requests, that if there is reason to believe that a fugitive offender is likely to go to the Colonies, and the prosecutor is un- willing to incur any expense, with a view to obtain his surrender, a notification be made in the communi- cation sent to this Office to the effect that the offender is not to be arrested beyond the United Kingdom. The necessity for the adoption of such a course will be apparent from the fact that the POLICE GAZETTE is circulated in the Colonies. 6.— S Division.— For fraud— STANLEY MAR- SHALL, age 50, height 5 ft. 7 in., complexion, hair, and eyes dark ; dress, mixture suit, hard felt hat.

METROPOLITAN POLICE DISTRICT. 99. - The attention of Police is directed to the pro- ceedings of a man trading as L. HARRY and CO., 8, Richardson- street, Oxford- street, and E. ARTHUR and CO., 23, Calverley- street, Mile End, London. He usually calls upon tradesmen and induces them to purchase a quantity of Stramonium Herbal Cigarettes and promises to have their names inserted in the local papers as the sole agents for the sale of the articles, and to forward handbills for distribution, but fails to comply with either of his promises.— Description— Age about 25, height 5 ft. 9 in., hair light, moustache sandy, of respectable appearance and good address. 100.— The attention of Police is directed to the proceed- ings of a firm known as J. M. VENETTIS and CO., who advertise and forward circulars to the various manu- facturing centres, stating that they have established a commercial and commission agency in London, last address, 2, West- street, London, E. C., for the exporta- tion and importation of goods between the various manufacturing towns in England and the Continent and also for the prosecution of trade inquiries. There is good reason to suppose that no genuine business has ever been transacted at their offices, and that the advertisement is published with the intention to defraud. 101.— The attention of Police is called to a female who advertises as MRS. MACGREGOR, care of Messrs. Drallim and Oliver, 18, Ironmonger- lane, Cheapside, E. C. Her practice is to insert advertisements in the daily papers, stating that she wishes to dispose of ( privately) to an immediate purchaser her complete set of Old English pattern electro- plated spoons and forks, stamped Al quality, for a small sum. By for- warding to persons replying to the advertisement a spoon or fork as a sample, she generally succeeds in obtaining the prescribed sum without sending the remainder of the articles ; and, if inquiry is made, states that the goods have been forwarded by Parcels Post. MACGREGOR is the last name which she gives herself; other names, however, have appeared pre- viously, viz., MKS. WENDERTON, Mrs. MIL- LARD ; and the firm of Drallim and Oliver above referred to is carried on by a man believed to be her husband. 102— The attention of Police is directed to the pro- ceedings of a man known as DR. J. R. REID, M. A., LL. D., alias DR. W. DAVIES, who issues the prospectus of the Royal Imperial Educational Insti- tute, & c., & c., 9, Healey- street, Camden Town, N. W., which it is alleged exists for the purpose of preparing pupils for the Universities, professions, < fec., obtaining employment for tutors and governesses, placing wards in Chancery, and the children of persons in the Colo- nies and India in suitable homes and institutions, where all the advantages of a superior education may be obtained, < fec., & c. This man also advertises constantly for governesses, lady chaperones, < fcc., and also for good homes in which to place pupils of a superior class, whom, he states, he is able to introduce to clergymen and others without commission, but invariably demands a fee for associa- tion with the " Institute" before he can give any information. As the above address is that of a private house, and Reid appears to be the only person known in connec- tion with the Institute, there is good reason to believe that no real benefit is to be derived therefrom, and that the only object of the advertisement is to obtain the Association fee.

Telegraphs, countless newspapers, & c., doubtless cause events to be more generally and quickly known ; but on referring to Scripture I find it to be no new thing that God should act suddenly. Private circum- stances, the judgment upon Miriam— public events, the battle of Gibeon— religious crises, the sanctification of the Temple— came " suddenly." Again and again we are told most solemnly that the visitations of God— upon cities, Jerusalem, Babylon, & c.; upon classes, the spoiler of nations, the violent, the proud, the covetous, the wicked— shall come " suddenly" and " without remedy." Warningly is it spoken, " Young men are entrapped suddenly." Clearly was it foretold that the Messiah should come " suddenly;" and continuing to mark New Testament experience, the same characteristic abounds. The birth of Jesus is announced " suddenly." He was transfigured " suddenly." The Holy Ghost came " suddenly." Saul of Tarsus was smitten " suddenly." Paul and Silas were delivered " suddenly." The Jailer was converted " suddenly." And in the future? This mortal shall put on immortality ; we are to be changed suddenly— in a moment— in the twinkling of an eye. The Master Himself cometh again suddenly. " Watch therefore." " Behold, I come quickly." Let us see to it that we are " prepared to meet" Him, for every death- roll, too, tells us that old and young die " sud- denly ENAMELLED IRON CABMEN'S BADGES; CAB NUMBERS, CAB FARE PLATES.
