AN ARISTOCRATIC AGITATION.

"OF THE MOST BLATANT KIND."

[PHESS ASSOCIATION.] (Recerved March 11.11:20 a.m.) SYDNEY, March 11. The Rev. Mr Leslie, a returned missionary from India, speaking at the Methodist Conference said that there was no more public-spirited body <sf men than the Indian Civil Service. The professional agitator would find occasion to grumble -whether there was ground or aaot. Most of those who agitated for selfgovernment wanted it without th» British Crown. They belonged to the higher castes of Indian society. 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-be-ings.
