NEW GOINEA.
In connection with the alteration of boundaries in New Guinea, it is explained that, in order to check the fierco marauding of a tribe known as Tugeri, who are located in Dutch territory Sir William Macgregor suggested to the Dutch authorities that, if they could not deal with the marauders, they should alter the boundary and include the tribe under British supervision. The Dutch agreed to the proposal, and ceded sufficient territory for the purpose.
