It will greatly facilitate the transaction of business, if in all telegrams to Great Scotland Yard regarding criminal matters, the name and official designation of the sender are telegraphed. 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 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. whose apprehension is sought for stealing £ 123 Is. 6d — age 19, height 5 ft. 7 in., complexion sallow, hair light brown, long thin face ; dress, black coat, brown- and- red striped trousers, lace boots, black silk or alpaca cap.

THE POLICE WATGH, CHRIST— THE SINNER'S REFUGE. " There are six lies in which sinners take refuge." 1 " There is no great harm in sin."— In saying this, men make God a liar, for He has said, " The soul that sinneth it shall die." They think that because sin is natural to them, it is not a very evil and bitter thing. 2 " God is merciful."— But you turn away from His mercy. All this mercy flows out to sinners from the Cross of Christ, and you refuse to care for the crucified Jesus. Can a man be carried safe to the country he wishes to reach if that man never put his foot on board the ship? . 3 " God does not care about what we do. — They said this in Jeremiahs days, and in Moses' days.— Jer. xxiii. 17, Deut. xxix. 19. But God declares the opposite. " He will by no means clear the guilty;" and if so, will your thoughts on the matter save you ? Will your stopping your ears make the thunder cease to roll 1 4 " VVe are not as bad as many."— But the moral and amiable young ruler " lacked one thing," a fatal want to him. All on the broad way a'e not profligates 1 Many go to hell by a clean path. It is not only the openly wicked, but " all that forget God" who perish in hell.— Ps. ix. 17. 5 " Perhaps we shall yet be converted."— But perhaps you shall not, what then ? oh ! what then 1 " To- day " you must hear His voice. 6 " I feel no token of God s wrath ; I am very well in the world. — But it is not bv external things a man knows his standing with God. You must judge of your state by the testimony of the written Word. " The hail shall sweep away refuge of lies." One refuge alone is right— that refuge is Christ.
