The amended Article will henceforth read as follows :— " It is agreed that Her Britannic Majesty and his Majesty the King of the Belgians shall, on requisition made in their name by their respective Diplomatic Agents, deliver up to each other, reciprocally, any persons who, being accused or convicted as principals or accessories of the crimes hereinafter specified, com- mitted within the territories of the requiring party shall be found within the territories of the other pa ty."

HERRINGS FOR NOTHINGS FROST I FROST I A gentleman was walking down one of the streets in the east of London one cold November day, when he met a fish hawker, calling, " Prime herrings. Four a penny ; four a penny !" Feople did not seem to buy them readily, and the gentleman crossed the street to speak to him. " How many have you got ? said he " Well," answered the man, despondently : " I ve a tray full, and trade ain't very brisk just now." " Do you think," said the gentleman, " if you gave them away you would Lave a rush?" The man looked at him wonderingly. " Bless you, master, I should think so. But I can't afford to give them away. " I should like to try," said the gentleman. " What is the lot worth ? Haif- a- crown." " Well I'll give you threo shillings for the lot if you 11 go round and cry ' Herrings for nothing !' and we will see what the people will do. The man nodded and laughed, and putting his tray on Ins nead, shouted " Herrings for nothing ! Prime herrings for nothing !' A window opened, an old woman lcoked out. " What's that, master?" " Herrings for nothing !" " Don't talk your trash to me," she answered; and banged down the window. Women stood on their doorsteps, he held out the fish. ' Here, ma am, are fine herrings, all free; won't you have them?" They looked suspicious. " There s something wrong." " They're poison, you may depend." '* How long since they were in the water ? " " You won't impose on us." He went on his way ; up the street, down again. Children hooted, men jeered, women laughed, and at last he got back to the gentleman, and said, " Here's your fish, sir ; and good luck to you I i wouldn't do the job again for sixpence ; never was so jeered at in my lite. No sooner did the people see the fish being carried off, than they felt they had made a mistake, and came crowding up " It's too late,' said the gentleman 1 thought I would test you. You have lost all these fish because you would not believe the message, and you will lose your souls if you do not believe Gods message of free salvation through Jesus Christ."
