The following is a copy of the order which governs the circulation, by the Metropolitan Police, of advertisements, or reward bills, for the discovery of property or the detection of crime. The Editor inserts it, in hope of preventing delays which some- times occur in publishing such notices, on account of their not being in accordance with the regula- tions in force in the Metropolis :— 1.— Printed hand- bills, or other advertisements, offering a reward for the discovery ot property or the detection of crime, whether printed and issued by the Metropolitan Police, or distributed and exhibited, with the sanction of the Commis- sioners, on the application of private persons, or of the Police of any County or Borough, must be clearly expressed in relation to the following points :— ( a) The amount of the reward.

( d) The name and address of the printer must appear thereon. 2.— No expression must be used in such an advertisement in relation lo property stolen, or criminally taken or disposed of, holding oat any expectation that the reward will be paid on its return without the offender being brought to trial, or without enquiry.
