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 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 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 np its own subjects to the other Government, but can not be considered bound to do so.

Tho furtherance of His kingdom does not depend upon intellectual power. Christ had the simplest kind of people about Him— people who talked with a country brogue ; but we see these early Christians coming in contact with the intellectual ftehngs of the day. Their trust in God enabled them to do it, and through all time there is only one work on the evidences of Christianity worth having— a work I have met with here and there ; it is rather scarce, but thank God ! some new editions are coming out. I have found it bound in cloth— from five to six feet of humanity living a Christ like life. Anything short of that is but little good. When people see a Christian living a Christ- like Hfe, then only will they believe in Christianity. Aro you going to be witnesses for Him 1 See : here is a man brought before a judge under suspicious circumstances, and whether he is acquitted or not depends upon my evidence. I bungle, am careless ; I put in what I ought to have left out, and leave unsaid what I ought to have said. The judge shakes his head, the counsel for the prosecution rub3 his hands and smiles, the counsel for the defence looks aghast, and my poor friend looks as if he would say, " Is that the best you can do for me 1" So Jesus Christ stands in us at the bar of public opinion, and whether He be accepted or rejected depends upon our evidence every day, and hour by hour. Once more I ask, " What are you going to do about it 1" 1 want an answer. I don't want great resolutions and splendid promises ; they are just blown away by a puff of wind ; but I want you to kneel down in His presence and say, " Lord, I can think of no greater ambition than to make the world think well of Thee. I don't want to be great, but I want so to live that men cannot help believing in Thee." Now Ready, price One Shilling. FIFTEENTH TEAR. MAYS BRITISH AND IRISH FOR I8B8.
