UNCLAIMED The attention of the Editor has been directed to the want of any system existing for the publication of descriptions of dead bodies coming into the hands of Police, and which are buried without having been iden- tified. It having been suggested that the particulars should be inserted in the POLICE GAZETTE, the Editor will be glad to print any information which it may be considered desirable to publish. IDENTIFICATION OF PRISONERS. The Editor desires to call attention to the fact that all photographs of prisoners in custody, trans- mitted to the Convict Branch of the Metropoli- tan Police Office, for purposes of identification, are seen by the police or warders who visit all Erisoners under remand, in the Metropolitan Police • istrict three times a week. This system, esta- blished in 1879, has been the means of ascertaining the previous convictions of 7000 prisoners, and affords great facilities to Chief Officers of Police, and the Governors of Her Majesty's Prisons. Such photographs are also compared with the albums in the Convict Office con- taining the portraits of all Convicts liberated in the Kingdom, which are further open to the personal examination of any police officer or warder.

Oh, slow of heart to believe, from the days of Hagar until now. What aileth thee 1 Is the Lord's govern- ment overthrown 1 Not at all. Have His springs of help run dry? By no means. What then? " The water is spent in the bottle." The poor little store which we had laid up has suddenly come to an end. Perhaps if we oftener put this question to ourselves we should hear it less often from the Lord, What aileth thee 1 Look and see. " Easy to see," sighs one, and " Easy to say," chides another, murmuring osten- sibly against " circumstances," or " weather," or " other- wise," but really with the cry of unbelief, " Is the Lord among us or not? Our little supplies have failed. Thou hast brought us into the wilderness to kill us with thirst." The wilderness ! We all have our image of that, and most of us, in one way or another, our ex- perience. It has not much improved since the clays of Hagar. Full of troubles, real and imaginary, where nobody seems to dwell but ourselves, where the drops are bitter, when at last we come to fountains— no escape— no end, as it seems. Listen a little— let God speak. " He found him in a desert land ; He led him about; He instructed him ; He kept him as the apple of His eye." " God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water." O, need most pressing for human eyes from all ages down. " Their eyes were opened, and they knew Him.' ENAMELLED IRON CABMEN'S BADGES; CAB NUMBERS, CAB FARE PLATES. o— NUMBERS FOR DOOR, & G.
