SPECIAL NOTICE. APPREHENSIONS SOUGHT. FUGITIVE OFFENDERS. A recent case has come under the notice of the Editor, in which a person whose apprehension was sought in England, and who was described in the POLICE GAZETTE, gave himself up to the Colonial Police. The prosecutor declined to take any further action in the matter, but the case necessitated the despatch of two telegrams, the cost of which had to be re- funded by him. To avoid such expense, the Editor requests, that if there is reason to believe that a fugitive offender is likely to go to the Colonies, and the prosecutor is un- willing to incur any expense, with a view to obtain his surrender, a notification be made in the communi- cation sent to this Office to the effect that the offender is not to be arrested beyond the United Kingdom. The necessity for the adoption of such a course will be apparent from the fact that the POLICE GAZETTE is circulated in the Colonies.

HABBY and CO., 8, Bichardson- street, Oxford- street, and E. ARTHUB and CO., 23, Calverley- street, Mile End, London. He usually calls upon tradesmen and induces them to purchase a quantity of Stramonium Herbal Cigarettes and promises to have their names inserted in the local papers as the sole agents for the sale of the articles, and to forward handbills for distribution, but fails to comply with either of his promises.— Description— Age about 25, height 5 ft. 9 in., hair light, moustache sandy, of respectable appearance and good address. 109.— The attention of Police is directed to the proceed- ings of a firm known as J. M. VENETTISand CO., who advertise and forward circulars to the various manu- facturing centres, stating that they have established a commercial and commission agency in London, last address, 2, West- street, London, E. C., for the exporta- tion and importation of goods between the various manufacturing towns in England and the Continent and also for the prosecution of trade inquiries. There is good reason to suppose that no genuine business has ever been transacted at their offices, and that the advertisement is published with the intention to defraud. 110.— The attention of Police is called to a female who advertises as MRS. MACGBEGOB, care of Messrs. Drallim and Oliver, 18, Ironmonger- lane, Cheapside, E. C. Her practice is to insert advertisements in the daily papers, stating that she wishes to dispose of ( privately) to an immediate purchaser her complete set of Old English pattern electro- plated spoons and forks, stamped Al quality, for a small sum. By for- warding to persons replying to the advertisement a spoon or fork as a sample, she generally succeeds in obtaining the prescribed sum without sending the remainder of the articles ; and, • if inquiry is made, states that the goods have been forwarded by Parcels Post. MACGBEGOB is the last name which she gives herself; other names, however, have appeared pre- viously, viz., MRS. WENDEBTON, Mrs. MIL- LARD ; and the firm of Drallim and Oliver above referred to is carried on by* a man believed to be her husband. Ill— The attention of Police is directed to the pro- ceedings of a man known as DR. J. R. REID, M. A., L. L. D., alias DR. W. DAYIES, who issues the prospectus of the Royal Imperial Educational Insti- tute, ( fee., & c., 9, Healey- street, Camden Town, N. W., which it is alleged exists for the purpose of preparing pupils for the Universities, professions, etc., obtaining employment for tutors and governesses, placing wards in Chancery, and the children of persons in the Colo- nies and India in suitable homes and institutions, where all the advantages of a superior education may be obtained, & c., & c. This man also advertises constantly for governesses, lady chaperones, & c., and also for good homes in which to place pupils of a superior class, whom, he states, he is able to introduce to clergymen and others without commission, but invariably demands a fee for associa- tion with the " Institute" before he can give any information. As the above address is that of a private house, and Reid appears to be the only person known in connec- tion with the Institute, there is good reason to believe that no real benefit is to be derived therefrom, and that the only object of the advertisement is to obtain the Association fee.

" Be vigilant, because your adver- sary the devil walketh about seeking whom he may - devour." " Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men ; be strong." " I have made thee a watchman, therefore hear the Word at my mouth and give them warning from me." 2. For the Master's re appearing. " For the Son of Man is as a man taking a far journey, who left his houss and gave authority to his servants, and to every man his work. Watch ye, therefore, for ye know not when the master of the house cometh, at even or at midnight, or at the cock- crowing, or in the morning, lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping." " Watch, therefore, for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come. But know this, that if the good man of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up. Therefore, be ye also ready, for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of Man cometh." " Watchmen, what of the night? Watchmen, what of the night?" " The watchman said, the morning cometh and also the night." The night to those who are " of the night." " For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh. . . For when they shall say Peace and safety, then sudden destruc- tion cometh upon them, and they shall not escape." " But ye are not in darkness ; ye are the children of the day." " Joy cometh in the morning." " My soul waiteth for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning." " Blessed is he that watcheth." ENAMELLED IRON CABMEN'S BADGES, CAB NUMBERS, CAB FARE PLATES.
