(Received March 11, 11.30 a.m.) MELBOURNE, This Day
The Rev. Mr Leslie, a returned missionary from India, speaking at the Methodist Conference, said there was no more public-spirited body of men than the Indian Civil Service. The Indian was essentially a professional agitator, and would find occasion to grumble whether there was ground for so doing or not. The most of those who agitated for self-government wanted it without the British Crown. They belonged to the higher castes of Indian society, and it was not a democratic; movement, but an aristocratic movement of the most blatant kind by men who had more respect for the lives of their cows than for the lives of their fellow beings. A SEDITIOUS EDITOR. March 11, 12.5 p.m.) CALCUTTA, March 10. Nandgopal, editor of the Allahabad Swarajya, was sentenced to five years' transportation for publishing a seditious book.
