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 POUCH 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 METROPOLITAN POLICE DISTRICT. 2.— A Division.— For committing a rape on a child 8 years old— GHARLES ADAMS, age about 35, height 5 ft. 8 in., complexion fair, hair and moustache light, lisps, of military appearance ; dress, dark coat and vest, light tweed trousers, blucher boots, hard felt hat.

His modus operandi is to call upon tradesmen and order goods, and pay for the same by cheque, which is occasionally in excess of the value of the goods, in which case he receives the balance in cash. Upon the cheques being presented they are returned marked " No account." He has evidently practised this mode of swindling for a considerable time, and there is every reason to believe that he is still pur- suing the same course in other large towns. It is particularly requested that the better class of tradesmen of the above or similar description be warned against this man, so that should he present himself he may be arrested, and information sent to the Chief Constable, City Police, Edinburgh.

HYPOCRITES IN THE CHURCH. ^ There is a class of people who say ' There are some men in the Church that • ought not to be there ; therefore I do not propose to go into the Church.' I am not • asking you to come into the Church ; I am inviting you to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb. We want you to come to Chri3t first, then we can talk about the Church. But you say there are some hypocrites in it. So there are, and I can imagine you saying, ' Yes, there is a man here in one of the churches that cheated me out of £ 5 a few years ago, and you are not going to find me in the company of hypocrites.' Well, if you want to get out of the company of hypocrites, you had better get out of the world as quickly as you can. One of the twelve Apostles turned out to be a hypocrite, and there is no doubt there will be hypocrites in the - Church to the end of time. But, ' What is that to thee V says Christ to Peter. ' Follow thou Me.' We do not ask you to follow hypocrites, we ask you to follow Christ; we do not ask you to believe in hypocrites, we ask you to believe in Christ " Another thing ; if you want to get out of the | company of hypocrites, you had better make haste and come to Christ. There will be no hypocrites at the Marriage Supper of the Lamb. Your excuse would sound strange there, would it not 1 We often hear men ma' e it down h< r but befi r 5 Jehovah it v o ild sound very strange for a man to say, ' Lord, Thou didst invite me to be at the Marriage Supper of Thy Son, but I did not accept it because I knew there were some hypocrites that pro- fessed the Gospel.' Man will have no excuse when he comes to stand before God ; • his mouth will then be sealed." D. L. MOODY. THE POLICE WATCH, AS SUPPLIED TO NEARLY EVERY FORGE IN THE UNITED KINGDOM.
