METROPOLITAN POLICE DISTRICT, 78— On the evening of the 27th ult., a mansion in the neighbourhood of London was broken into by thieves, who entered through a bed- room window by means of a ladder. Several offences of this kind have recently occurred at mansions in the country and near London, but owing to the want of a sufficient description of the thieves, the Police will have great difficulty in tracing them. It is to be feared, therefore, that other houses will be attacked by the same gang. The offences are generally committed between the hours of 7 and 10 in the evening, during the family dinner hour, and when the upper part of the house is without occupants. Proprietors of detached houses standing in their own grounds are specially warned to see that all windows are closed and securely fastened in the evening, and urgent attention is called to the imprudence of keep- ing valuable jewellery in wardrobes in bed and dress- ing- rooms. It is valuable portable property of this kind which such burglars alone seek for, and keeping it in a proper thief- proof safe affords absolute security against their depredations. FRIDAY, JANUARY 4, 18S9. THE POLICE GAZETTE. 5 As the removal of the ladder, by which they gain access to the upper windows, would ensure the capture of the thieves, they generally stretch wire across the lawn to trip up pursuers, and in the last case the hall door and side doors of the house were securely fastened from the outside by wire to prevent pursuit. Should any persons be seen loitering about or direct- ing attention to any house or grounds, their descrip- tion should be noted, and the Police of the locality - communicated with.

" I am a Christian— that is, I hope I am— but this is one of the things that trouble mo. I wonder if other people ever have doubts about it ? I do believe in Jesus, but I don: t always feel that He hears my prayers ; and so I go on groping in the dark, and doing such hateful things, until I get so discouraged and think it is no use, and oh dear ! to- morrow is New Year's Day, and I must begin afresh, and try harder." Then a little lower in the page came these words, ' 11 will try and trust Jesus more." But there were tears in her eyes, and a lonely sense of despair crept about her heart, for had she not resolved something the same last New Year's Eve, and on looking back, what a miserable failure to trust Jesus it all looked ! And would the coming year be any better ? Ah ! that was the question. " What is the trouble, child 1 " asked a soft voice. " It s about my New Year's resolve, I cannot keep it; last year I was always in trouble, always m the dark, and never happy for long together." ' What have you resolved ; lhat I will try and trust Jesus more this year." " Will you alter it a little, child 1 Will you take out that word ' try,' and just leave the word ' trust, with nothing but a hearty ' I will ' in front of it? You never dream of trying to trust me, you trust me. Trust Him in the same simple way. It makes all the difference in the world to your resolve. Trust Jesus for all the help you need, every day of the coming year. He is not onlv your perfect Pattern, but your perfect Helper. You are as weak as you can be," but He will be your strength, your All. So it was. Many a time the darkness threatened to overcloud her again, but like a rainbow^ in the cloud the golden letters of the little word " Trust" gleamed out, and reminded her to look to Jesus in shadow as well as sunshine. What shall it be for us, irying to Trust," or *' Trusting " throughout this New Year 1 Would it not make all the difference" if our motto is, " I will trust Jesus more" 1 " I know whom I have believed.
