SPECIAL NOTICE. 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, APPREHENSIONS SOUGHT.

" Can you say it! Only five words, but what meaning ! This means literally that He will hear me as alistener. A minister called upon one of poor his people, who said, when the visit was over, that she had greatly enjoyed his call. He thought to himself, ' I have scarcely said a word, and yet she says that I have done her " Just so. People in deep trouble like somebody to hear them all through ; even little children are comforted by ' telling mother all about it.' And then the Lord will hearken as a friend full of sympathy. Some people listen but do not hear. God will hear— feeling with me, sympathising with me. Go with this promise in your hand and in your heart,—' My God will hear me'— and then use it like a magic wand. Turn it whichever way you will, and it will clear your path. You have some duty before you, at which your spirit sinks, as you sigh, ' Who is sufficient for these things ?' Lift up your heart to God. His grace shall be sufficient for you. and His strength shall be made perfect in your weakness, for your God will hear you. " Or you have some trial, some bereavement hanging over you, you shall be sustained, for in your ear is this word, ' My God will hear me.' Or perhaps you yourself have to sicken and die. Do you inquire, What shall I do in the swellings of Jordan 1 Here is your happy answer, ' My God shall hear me.' I shall cry to Him, and He will answer me. Yea, though I go down into the valley of the shadow of death, my God will hear me ; and when I lie in my tomb, my God will remember me, and He will call me up with sound of trumpet, and my body shall live again."
