THE GERMAN ANNEXATION POLICY.

(by cable.—copyright.— special to MKUSOUBHE " AOli.")

London, January 8. Tims British Government have forwarded a very indignant protest to tho German authorities on tho annexation question, in which Prince Bissmarck ia accused of broach of faith by having diroctcd the annexation of a portion of New Guinea. Proposed Pacific Annoxation Convention. The Foreign Office lias despatched the Hon. Robert Moade, ono of the Assistant Undor-Socretarics In the Colonial Office, to Berlin, to make arrangements for • a meeting of a convention to adjudicate upon tho rival claims to islands in the Pacific. The Heligoland Canard. Earl Derby repudiates the, idea that the BritUh Cabinet intends to code the island of Heligoland, in tho North Sea, to Ger many in consideration that tho latter relin quishes all claims to New Guinea. The attitude of New South Wnlosattho present juncturo is most perplexing; but tho Colonial Ollice and Agcnte-Gonoral are conlidont that Gonnany will in tho' outset be compelled to abandon tscw Guinea. Prince Bismarck declines to define the limit of Gorman annexation of Now Guinea until he has received particulars and re parts from the commander of tho German warship at present in the Pacific. Earl Derby will forward despatches to the Governors of the several Australian colonies on the annexatian question ta tnorrow. January 9. -General satisfaction is expressed at tho determination of the British Government to extend the British protectorate over tho north-east coast of New Guinea to Huon Gulf, the commencement of the German boundary, | ,

Prlnco Bismarck's Speech.

In tho German Reichstag yosterday during a debate arising out of the recent annexation by Germany of Cameroons on the west coast of Africa by Dr. Nachtigal, I'rir co Bismarck made a speech in which he tl r a'encd to abandon his colonising policy if the quoation were pcßtponed. The annexa tion project of Now Zealand showed the danger of delay, and Englishmen were re ported to bo fomenting disorder in Now Guinea and Cameroons. He further de precated allusions being made to tho possi bility or an expressod opinion that all annt?xation difficulties could be settled by negotiation.

January 12.

Prince Bismarck has oxpreesed the opin o i that if tho Impaml Government approves of tho hostility shown by the Australian colonies to tho annexation of a oortion of New Guiuo* by Germany, it will bo necessary for Germany to support the policy of tho Powers opposed to England in tho Egyptian and other questions. Ho has also expressed his snrpriso at tho proposal of Now Zealand to broak tho mutual agree ment ontored into not to annex tho Samoa Islands,
