That they require protection is sufficiently plain, but it seems doubtful in what way it can be afforded them. The best course, if it is possible, would be to transfer them to B. Guiana, the Government of which I should have little doubt would be willing to pay the expense of transport. If the Earl of Kimberley should approve this course, Consul General might be instructed to put himself in communication with the Governor of B. Guiana on the subject.
