SOUTH AFRICA.
PROTECTION OF BRITISH FARMERS. LONDON, November 15. Lord Elgin, replying to Mi- Lovat, evasively declared he would give assurance that the Government would specially safeguard the interests of thirteen hundred British farmeis who have been settled in the Transvaal and Orangia, alleging that the matter concerned the still unsettled constitution. Lord Milner declared that unless they were safeguarded before letters patent of the Transvaal constitution were issued, it would be too late to intervene in Orangia, because the Transvaal precedent would prevail.
