SPECIAL NOTICE. It will greatly facilitate the transaction of business, if in all telegrams to Great Scotland Yard regarding criminal matters, the name and official designation of the sender are telegraphed. FUGITIVE OFFENDERS. A 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 hy 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. APPREHENSIONS SOUGHT.

P. IRETON & CO., 92, SRACECHUBCH ST., LONDON, E. C, A CHANGELESS CHRIST. " Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, and to- day, and for ever," changeth not. Though His human nature was under the sway of natural law, beneath this human nature, which was iubject to growth and change, lies that Divine nature which is enduring, unchanging, eternal. Christ changes not; even His flesh has never seen corruption, and is now in endless incorruptibility, enthroned at God's right hand. His love does not change ; having loved His own, He loved them to the end. His tenderness, His patience, never change; His Divine power is ever the same, He is our unchanging, ever- lasting Lord. Many a weary sinner sought His face when He was here on earth, and none of them was repelled or turned away ; and many to- day, who are weary, and burdened, and heavy- laden, look back with fruitless longings to the days when Christ walked and talked with men. Their regrets are needless. The same Jesus who healed the palsied, who opened blind eyes, who unsealed the deaf ears, who raised the dead, who poured the oil of joy into sorrowing hearts, lives to- day, man's helper and his Saviour still. He whose feet were washed by Mary's tears, and in whose bosom little children nestled and waited for His blessing; He who fed the hungry with bread His own hands had broken ; He who com- forted the sad with words of tenderest pity and compassion, still lives, " the same yesterday, and to- day, and for ever." The greatest sinner is as welcome now to His presence as were the publicans, and harlots, and sinners, and demoniacs of eighteen hundred years ago. Oh that a lost world could know this unchanging Christ! They - would not linger in sorrow, poverty, and sin, but would come boldly to the throne, of grace to meet Him who, in all the glory of Heaven, yet retains the tenderness of His human heart, the gentleness of His human hand, the unchanging pity that He, " a Man of sorrows," felt in days gone by; and with them all are linked the mighty power and glory of Him who " fainteth not, neither is weary ; " of Him who is strong to redeem and " mighty to save."
