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 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, MANCHESTER ( City).— For murder, 5th inst— JOHN WILLIAM BURNS, alias SUNNY BURNS, a brushmaker, age about 23, height 5 ft. 5 in., stout, hair light, slight squint in left eye; dress, dark clothes and muffler, clogs, and hard felt hat— OWEN CALLIGHAN, alias GALLAGHER, ONEY CALL A.

How hard it is to realise that He loves us at high- pressure always. Nature won't oeiieve it; iaith staggers under it. We look at His dealings with us, and they are l? ° tir nnderstanding, so we wisely conclude that He does not love us quite so , as He says. But Faith looks at His doings for us, the devoted, self- sacrificing love ot the cross, and the mists roll away and all is plain. God will let His love be Known more in acts than in words. Words are not wanting, as St. John's Gospel snows ; but they are not the foreground, and I think it is a lesson for us to dwell more tnan we do on the actions and ways of God, for in general people content tnemselves very much with pet passages, " nice " chapters, and thus they are not reaiiy rooted and grounded in love as they would be if they studied His ways and uoings more. It is like eating sweetmeats as your principal food. Take care ever cZ T* at , a Christian in God's thoughts is simply a lost one who has con- forgiveness- a forgiven one. We associate the name of Christian iniMWki • 88 and devotedness that should characterise a forgiven one, and thus ^ Z'jy. ln0nmnd,? ur declarative title becomes our real title, consequently I WorH nf n° jal mys? lf a Christian.
