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 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 party." " In no case, nor under any consideration whatever, shall the High Contracting Parties he 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.

This question, therefore, relates to yon— What is your Life 1 1. It is the gift of God. He gave you your breath, and not only gave it, but preserves your Life. If He did not you would die. It is a vapor," i e., like a vapor that " appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away." Have you not seen such a thing 1 Do not forget this in your plans and purposes, that life is very short and fleeting. 3. It is a wind. Men are apt to think that they will live for ever. They see others around them drop off, but they do not consider the shortness and uncer- tainty of their own Life. Job did—*' O remember," he said in his prayer, " that my life is like the wind." The wind that carries away the vapor is swifter than the vapor itself. 4. It is a day of grace, a time of mercy. In this your Life, while it lasts, God offers to forgive you, receive you, and save you for Christ's sake. You may pray, and God will hear. It is a great opportunity. The Blood of Jesus has been shed, the Holy Spirit is promised, the Word of Life is in your hands. You may seek, you may ask, you may knock, and the promise is that you shall find, receive, and have the door opened unto you. Such is your Life. 5. It is a service. You are, in this your lifetime, the servant of some master whose work you are doing. Who is your master? There are but two— God is one, Satan the other. 6. It is a battle— at least it ought to be. If you are a soldier of Jesus Christ, you are fighting daily against the world, the flesh, and the devil; but many do not fight this battle. They yield to sin without a struggle, and let Satan have his own way with them. ( To be continued) Rev- F. BOURDILLON. ALL SMOKERS SHOULD TRY TADDY'S UNRIVALLED MYRTLE GROVE. Delicious, Cool Smoking.
