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.

Seven new things should characterise thee, Christian. 1. The New Birth.—" Except a man be born again, he cannot see the Kingdom of God." It may dawn on some like the morning light, and on others like a Hash of lightning, but all must experience it; this man's experience or that man's experience is not to be our test. 2. A New Name— That is to say, a new kind of character among men as well as in the sight of God. 3. A New Creation.— One evidence of the new heart is love to the brethren, not only those who love us, but those who hate us. 4. A New Tongue.— The talk of a man who is con- verted to God is altogether different from what it was before. He seems like another man. Instead of all his talk being about this world, he talks of Jesus and His Love. 5. A New Song.— Whenever God is reviving His work, new hymns come out. Not many people now read John Wesley's sermons, but Charles Wesley's hymns are sung the world over. 6. A New Way.— Christ has brought us out of " the way of the transgressors " and put us into His way, for He says " I am the Way." Ask yourself, have you new tastes ? Do you hate those things you used to love, and love those which you used to hate ? Are you thus brought into the new way ? 7. A New Heaven and a New Earth.—" Old things are passed away, behold, all things are become new." S. AND H. HABKIS'S Ebonite For p T' ° e, t' Pouches, & c.
