FUGITIVE OFFENDERS. A 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 tli6 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.

" Now, ia Christ Jesus, ye who sometimes were far off, are made nigh, by the Blood of Christ." " So near, so very near to God, I cannot nearer be, For in the Person of His Son I am as near as He." Jesus took our nature and became one with us. Thus He is near unto us; He gives us His Holy Spirit, brings us into union with Himself, and we are near to Him. Do we realise this fact daily— we are near and dear to our God? These are His thoughts. He says we are near to Him in point of relation, being His children ; near to Him in point of affection, being loved with an everlasting love; we are near Him in point of union, being members of His Body ; we are near to Him in point of fellowship, walking with Him as a man walketh with his friend ; we are near to Him in point of attention, being the objects of His daily, hourly, tender care. How can these things be 1 Above, we have had the answer, " In Christ Jesus." In Him, who came to seek and to save us in our far off condition ; in Him, who— while we were " without strength," " ungodly," " sinners," " enemies"— died for us that He might draw us unto Himself. In Him who says, again and again, " Come unto Me;" " I will never leave thee nor forsake thee." Now " I am with you alway;" hereafter ye " shall be for ever with the Lord;" ever near unto Me.

REMAINING PORTION AT HALF- COST. Extract from " Morning Advertiser," Oct. 26 :— j " Our readers will no doubt be glad to learn that a party of gentlemen, mostly City merchants, have opened establishments in London and the provinces for the immediate disposal of Bankrupt Stocks, whereby the general public may obtain Clothing ready- made or made up to measure at a cost of about one- half its original value ; the principal object is to save many unnecessary legal expenses which always occur in cases of Bankruptcy. When a man becomes insolvent they immediately secure his stock and offer the same to the public at such prices that cannot fail to be realised into money forthwith, thus the long delay usual in wind- ing up the estate of a debtor is avoided. The title of the Com- pany registered is the Bankrupt Agency Association ; the ONLY London addresses are 128, Cheapside, and 77 and 78, High Holborn ; Provincial Branch, 34, High- street, Birmingham ; other branches are shortly to be added, of which due notice will be given. Con- signments of al? descriptions are regularly received by the Asso- ciation, the difference in the prices to ordinary shops we under- stand is calculated to be about 40 per cent. A visit is recom- mended. Anyone may inspect the stocks on offer without being { compelled to purchase." HAMMOND and POPE. STOCK OF CLOTHING. J. L. MIERS. STOCK OF FANCY GOODS. SMITH and NICHOLLS.
