SPECIAL NOTICE. 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 dispatch of two telegrams, the cost of which had to be refunded 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. SPECIAL NOTICE. PERSONS IN CUSTODY. EXPLOSIONS.

STEADFAST, IMMOVEABLE," " It is a great thing to be a Christian." The very name is a noble one, beyond all the noble names of earth. To say, " lama Christian," is to say, " I belong to God's nobility ; I am of the peerage of Heaven." Much, then, is expected of you. Do not disgrace the old family name. Do nothing unworthy of Him who represents you in Heaven, and Whom you repre- sent on earth. He is faithful to you ; be you so to Him. Let men know what a Lord and Master you serve. Be Hi3 witnesses ; be His mirrors; be His living Epistles. Let Him speak through you to the world ; and do you speak of Him. Let your life tell your fellowmen what He is, and what He is to you. Speak well of Him to men, as He speaks well of you to God. He has honoured you by giving you His name ; He has blest you by conferring on you sonship, and royalty, and an eternal heritage ; see that you do justice to His love, and magnify His greatness. Let your light shine. Do not obstruct it, or hide it, or mingle darkness with it. " Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee."—( Isa. Ix. 1.) It is the light of love that you have received ; let it shine. It is the light of truth ; let it shine. It is the light of holiness ; let it shine. Hold fast that which you have received.
