FUGITIVE OFFENDERS. A case has come under the notice of the Editor, in which a person whose apprehension was eought 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 such a course will be apparent from the fact that the POLICE GAZETTE is - circulated in the Colonies cription of JAMES MURPHY, whose apprehension is sought for the wilful murder of a Police Constable at Dodworth, 31st ult.
