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 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 circnlated in the Colonies. APPREHENSIONS SOUGHT.

AS SUPPLIED TO NEARLY EVERY FORCE IN THE UNITED KINGDOM. ALSO SUITABLE FOR THE ARMY AND RAILWAY SERVICES. " A man said to me not long ago, ' Do you think there is any justice in my being condemned because a man sinned six thousand years ago 1 I don't believe a word of it.' Now let me say there will be no one lost on account of Adam's sin. But I hear some one say, ' That's a plain contradiction. You have said we would be, and now you tell me we shall not De.' Let me see if I can illustrate it. Suppose 1 am dying of some terrible disease, say consumption, and I am given up by the physicians, who say I must die; I am in the last stage of consumption, in a few x'he above Watch is an excellent Timekeeper, made expressly for the sjervlce, with horizontal escapement, enamel dial, extra jewelled, highly finished strong works, thick crystal glass, massive silver cases, & c., at £ 2 16s. believe there's any remedy ; I have tried all the leading physicians, and they say there is no hope.' ' I tell you there is a remedy,' says he. ' Twenty years ago! was as far gone as yourself, and I was given up by all the physicians to die ; hut I took that medicine ( and he holds it out to me) and it cured me. Listen now. There is the medicine, it shall not cost you a farthing ; just take it and you will get well.' But I do not take it, though I have every reason to believe the man is speaking the truth. Well, suppose the man says, ' That medicine has cost me all I have got; take it and live.' I take the medicine from him and dash it to the ground. To be sure I shall die of consumption. But that is not the reason why I die. It is because I spurn the remedy. And if men die eternally it will not be God's fault, but because they have despised the remedy." D. L. MOODY.
