NOTICE. EXTRADITION. A Declaration was signed in London on the 2lst of April, 1887, between the British and Belgian Govern- ments, for amending Article I. of the Extradition Treaty of 20th May, 1876. 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 » r accessories of the crimes hereinafter specified, com- mitted within the territories of the requiring party Bh& ll be found within- the territories of the other pa ty." " In no case, nor under any consideration whatever, shall the High Contracting Parties be bound to surrender their own subjects, whether by birth or naturalisation." The result of the modification in the Treaty is that either Government may deliver up its own subjects to the other Government, but can not be considered bound to do so.

COLLIS BROWNE. WHITHER BOUND. Two ships meet on mid- ocean ; they get within hailing distance. Through the still air come the questions, " What ship 1 Whither bound 1 " and the answers are lis- tened to as of supreme importance. We pass each other on life's ocean in the same way ; you and I are passing as you read this, and we are within hail of each other. Shall we ask the second question of each other, Whither bound 1 It is a very solemn one, and God Himself listens for the answer. We should all like to answer, " Why, I am bound to Heaven to be sure." " What makes you say so 1" " Well, I am not so very sure, I hope so." If the captain of a ship were to call through his speaking trumpet that he wasn't sure where his vessel was bound, what would you say of him 1 You would doubtless use strong language. We like to sing about Heaven, pearly gates and golden streets, about Home ; where there is no more parting, but have we ever thought that if there is a real Heaven, there must be a real Hell; if there is a real Saviour there must be a real Devil ? Many believe in Heaven who deny that there is a Hell, and as for a personal devil say, " No sen- sible man believes such a thing." The fashion of doubting is a very old one. " Yea, hath God said 1" Enough, or more than enough, exists in our own hearts and in the world around us, to prove the existence of a Devil— and as for Hell, once our Lord lifts the curtain we see a real man, we do not know his name, he was rich, he does not appear to have been very specially wicked, but he cared for no one but himself, and totally forgot God. He died— but where was he? In Hell; there is no mincing the matter in God's Word— that man was in Hell. Think of memory at work there ! Think of the separation from all that is good there ! Think of the company, of the conversation ! The question perhaps crops up, " Can a man that has done nothing very wrong be classed with the vilest 1" The answer turns round on the words', " nothing very wrong." That is what we think, but we make a mis- take. We are judged by Heaven's Statute Rook, and the crime that stands firtt on God's Book, the greatest sin of all, is the rejection of God's Son. God's set purpose is that none should perish, and if any go to Hell they trample under foot the Son of God Himself— that, alone, is the only way to Hell." AGNES E. WESTON.
