We are sorry to inform our readers that
according to intelligence by last packet
Mr.. Anthon Frederik Wilhelm Forsberg
died on the 18th last month. The deceas-
ed came to this Island in his early youth,
and for several years served the Burgher
Council as incassator. In 1855 he was
appointed p~olicemaster in the Centre-dis-
trict. and in this capacity had a great in
fuence on the quiet developement Of the
difficult labour relations; in 1878 he
retired from public service. Mr.. Forsberg
in his long career here enjoyed the entire
confidence and respect of the community,
and we are sure that manyi will regret TO
hear of his death.

The British Colonial Secretary, Lord
Kimberley, in a despatch to Sir 6, Pome-
roy Colley, who succeeds Sir Garnet
Wolseley as Governor of Natal, writes as
follows on the subject OF extending the
limits OF British territory.
1t may be that responsibilities have
already been incurred in regard to the
'Keate Award territory which may render
some extension of British Jurisdiction una
%voidable, but the mere fact that a certain
number OF white settlers have es tabiished
themselves 10 that territory, and that diff
culties have arisen ia consequence with
the natives, would not be sufficient to
justify such extension, Where, as in the
South African colonies, there is no natural
boundary, the complications incident upon
the contact of white c~olonists with native
tribes must arise wherever the border line
is drawn ; and if British jurisdiction is
to be continually extended further and
further into the interior, on the plea Of
such complications, there is practically no
limit to the operation.
Her Majesty's Government Gun give
no countenance to such o policy. They
desire to maintain friendly relations with
the various independent native tribes
which border on the South African posses
sions of the Crown, and to abstain from all
interference with these tribes beyond what
may be essential for the preservation of
the peace of the frontiers.
1t will, no doubt, always be necessary
that the colonial Governments should
exercise o certain influence over the tribes
Immediately adjacent TO the border but
this influence may be exercised without
acquiring fresh territorial rights,
ttThe appointment of residents to advise
the native chiefs has been found q conve-
nient mode OF carrying on the necessary
relations with the natives on the frontiers,
and I see no reason why this expedlent
should not continue TO be resorted to In
future.
81 desire especially to caution you
against allowing mere border forays and
disputes to be exaggerated into outrages
which require to be resented as serious
agyressions upon British territory. Such
offences are necessarily Incidental to all
frontiers between native tribes and civil
lied States, and while they should of
course be firmly dealt with, they should
be treated rather as matters of police than
as national questions.
The same tone is found 10 dispatches
addressed 20 Sir Bartle Frere, Governor OF
the Cape Colony"

Depend upon it that this vast country

man do his duty, his whole duty before God 2
[Crics of mo-" II seems TO mo he did not.
We have given more space to this mat
ter than we had intended at the outset, but
wo think it but just and proper to portray
the spirit and sentiment of Ohio Republic
cans at the present iuncture. Senator
BLAINE seems to have large and strong
following in Ohio, who do not hesitate to
push an aggressive warfare against Secre-
tary SHERMAN within his own State, and
to treat him with a spirit and with methods
nowhere else introduced into the canvass, as
we have been able to discover. If the
friends Of General GRANT should anywhere
assail Secretary SHERMAN with the bitter
and relentless spirit that follows him in
Ohio we should allude TO it with regret, but
we have long since been taught that Ohio
politicians and methods are SW gcnc,fs and
their cccentricites need not surprise,
though they may attract attention. In
this fight in Ohio
I'VE don't care n toss.up
Whether MossoP kicks BARRY or
BAERY kicks NlossoP."
1t is n mere sltirmish among factions in
State, which, though claiming to be Repub-
lican Mt heart, is already sending out its
danger signals to warn the country that if
General GRANT shall be nominated ITS
electoral vote cannot he confidently relied
upon for him MS the Republican standard
bearer. If this is the length, breadth and
depth of Ohio Republcanism, it need sur
prise no one that it should attempt to
ovcrwhclm one of its own honored states
men with the elements Of prejudice, scorn
and derision. It's eccentricities and meth
ods in politics are far more startling than
