SPECIAL NOTICE. APPREHENSIONS SOUGHT. It will greatly facilitate the transaetion 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 nnder the notioe of the Editor, in which a person whose apprehension was sought in England, and who was deseribed 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 proseoutor is un- willing to ineur 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 t& at the POLICE GAZETTE is • circulated in the Colonies.

" Say unto the children of Israel, I am the Lord, and I will bring you out from under the burden of the Egyptians, and I will rid you out of their bondage, and I will redeem you. . . . And I will take you to me for a people, and I will be to you a God, and ye shall know that I am the Lord your God, which bringeth you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians. And! will bring you in unto the land. . . . And I will give it to you for an heritage. I am the Lord." Jehovah presents Himself to His people as the one who was to act in them, for them, loitli them. Ruined and helpless as they were, He had come down to show His glory. His glory and their salvation were inseparably connected. Nothing is more cal- culated to assure and establish our doubting hearts than the knowledge that God has taken us up Just as we are, and in the full intelligence of what we are, He can never make any fresh discovery. " Having loved His Own, He loved them unto the end." Whom He loves, and as He loves, He loves unto the end. This is an un- speakable comfort. God knew all about us. He knew the very worst of us when He manifested His love to us in the gift of His Son; He knew what was needed, and H ments out." " I will bring you.... „ _ . " I am Jehovah." It was all what He would, do, as founded upon what He was. Until this great truth is laid hold of, entering into the soul by the power of the Holy Ghost, there cannot be settled peace. Divine requirements have been divinely answered. „ , r C. H. M. THE FAMILY DOCTOR AND PEOPLE'S MEDICAL ADVISER. WEEKLY, ONE PENNY. MONTHLY, SIXPENCE. Quarterly Subscription post- free, Is. 8d.
