! iuencel of the English note to Russia re-
garding the dispatch on the boundary
ment of the relations between the two
powers few years ago, an understand
ing was made with Forseys, that Eng
land only required Russia to abstain
from the invasion of Afghanistan, but
the boundary OF that Territory was left
underlined. The present note declares
that the Northern boundary of Afyhani
stan commences at the Siri Koe, i'll
German Steppe; thence follows the Ok
Us to kad.ah saleh; from that point
westward to the Persian frontier. The
note further states, that England has
informed Elnir of Afghanistan, that he
may fight the Russians if they cross; the
line. The Russians reply declares the
desire of Russia to MAINTAIN good rela-
tions with England, but refuses to re
ceive the dictated boundary because it
includes counties which never belong
ed to Afghanistan, but were always in
dependent. Russia's object in taking
Khiya, is apparently to establish a de-
pot and hold and occupy the whole wall
ley Of the Oxus. England defines this
line to interfere with Russia's purpose
and to enable herself better to hold it,
and will hinder her when the day of
! fighting comes. Nllk s, 15f
