These | officers seized a punt on the Murray, the Victorian Government sent up police to {guard its people's righte, and but for the moderation of the iaspeetors blood might have been shed. As it is, if the Govern- ment of Syduey persist there will be a regu- lar border war between smugglers and themselves.
