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 dispatch of two telegrams, the cost of which had to be refunded 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 suoh a course will be apparent from the fact that the POLIO ® GAZETTE is circulated in the Colonies. SPECIAL NOTICE, PERSONS IN CUSTODY.

It was worn upon the heart of the High Priest, and was so fastened to the ephod as never to be separated from it. Twelve stones were set in it, all precious stones, but no two of them were alike. They were different in form, hue, also in beauty and value ( ac- cording to man's estimation), but all of them were gems in the sight of God, they were each set in gold, and rested equally upon the heart of Aaron. The breastplate is a picture of the inmost heart of our Great High Priest, the Lord Jesus Christ, and we are taught that each believer has his own place in the heart of Christ. Let not the jasper grow dim, because it is not a diamond. We have no good cause to pore over our conditions or compare ourselves with others. Whatever be thy condition or thy circumstances, Jesus knows thee by name, undertakes for thee. And why were these precious stones with the names of the trites to be borne continually before the Lord 1 Just to teach us that as this ordinance was not, and could not be effected by the circumstances, frames, feelings, in- consistencies, sins, or even the captivities of Israel, even so, however matters may be with the believer here, his name is written on Christ's Heart above, and borne for a memorial before the Lord continually. The command that it was to be borne officially, on the heart of the High Priest, and never to be separated from his ephod, was full of Gospel. It tells us how our Great High Priest would bear on His Heart His people's cause, devoting His whole Person, power, influence, and fulness to carry into effect " the pleasure of the Lord," bearing them as a part of Himself, " A memorial before the Lord continually."
