A Declaration was signed in London on the 2lst of April, 1887, between the British and Belgian Govern- ments, for amending Article I. of the Extradition Treaty of 20th May, 1876. The amended Article will henceforth read as follows :— " It is agreed that Her Britannic Majesty and his Majesty the King of the Belgians shall, on requisition made in their name by their respective Diplomatic Agents, deliver up to each other, reciprocally, any persons who, being accused or convicted as principals or accessories of the crimes hereinafter specified, com- mitted within the territories of the requiring party shall be found within the territories of the other party." " In no case, nor under any consideration whatever, shall the High Contracting Parties be bound to surrender their own subjects, whether by birth or naturalisation." The result of the modification in the Treaty is that either Government may deliver up its own subjects to the other Government, but can not be considered bound to do so. CAPTAIN M. STEEDS offers the above reward for such information as would lead to a conviction for the above malicious act: and as large quantities of arsenic, or preparations of arsenic, have been found in the animals poisoned, and in the bran mashes used to convey the poison, the police are requested, at all places where poison ( arsenic) might be sold, to trace such through chemists, druggists, grocers, & c., who may have sold arsenic, or arsenical preparations— such as sheep dips, & c.— and com municate with F.

This 1 living picture' ( the Arab scenes) caused great excitement on Saturday night, and alone it would attract thousands to Olympia.'' The Standard.—" From beginning to end the en- tertainment is admirable, and this second London season cannot fail to be even more popular than the first." The Morning Post.—" The crowds of sightseers on Saturday night were rewarded by a novel and bril- liant display of horsemanship, not only in the time- honoured ' ring,' but in a life- like and picturesque representation of au Arabian camp. Enthusiastic applause greeted each and every item in a long pro- gramme." The Morning Adver'. istr.—" The Morocco Jumpers are likely to become the talk of the town."

The Observer.—'' Is well calculated to draw crowds to the gigantic building at Addison- road." The Referee.—" Probably' never have so many purely bred horses been brought together in a com- pany of this kind. M. Houcke ought to win a steady amount of patronage."

" The Lord grant unto him ( Onesiphorus) that he may find mercy of the Lord - in that day " 12 Tim. i— xviii.) And we— shall we find mercy of the Lord in that day ? Let us not put the question away from us. Let us look it fairly in the face— ponder it thoroughly in our minds. Let each earnestly ask, Shall I find mercy of the Lord in that day 1 if not, what a day it will be ! If not, what an eternity will be mine ! " But that day,'' you may be saying, " is hidden in the dim— and, it may be, distant— future. Who, then, can answer the question ? At present it must remain a matter of uncertainty and doubt." Not so. You may know it now. To prove this let the question be asked, Are you seeking now the mercy which you will need in that day 1 For if you seek it now you will assuredly find it then. If now, while it is the accepted time ; if now, while it is the day of salvation ; if to- day, ye harden not your hearts ; if ye seek mercy through Him '* who loved us, and gave Himself for us," who invites and encourages us in the gospel of His grace, you need not look forward with alarm to that day. " For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Out of Jesus God is " a consuming fire." In Jesus He is " the Father 9f mercies and the God of all comfort." Yes ; you have a merciful Father, which is in heaven. You have a merciful Saviour, in whom that Father is always " well pleased," to be your advocate with Him, and the propitiation for your sins. You have a merciful Spirit, who, in answer to your supplications, will give you the faith to close with the offer of mercy in the gospel of mercy. " I am persuaded that He is able to keep that which I have committed unto Him against that day." " Yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. . . . But ye are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. LATEST FICrlOK". NEW SERIAL NOVEL by Mr. GRANT ALLEN, " THE DEVILS DIE," WEEKLY from SUNDAY, July 31st. ID.
