THE COMING TEST.

In the House of Commons, on August End, the Prime Minister solerinly warned the extremist forces of India that in po circumstances would Britnin relinquish her responsibility. To do so, ha pro claimed, would be one of the greatest betrayals in the history of any country, The Prime Minister did not use th language of threat. He recognized that India had been given the opportunity of working out her own destiny, but he intimated to India and to the world beyond a peradventure that the future of India must lie within the ambit of the British Empire.

The declaration of the Prime Minister occurred in a debate upon the Indian Civil Service, Bath Sir Samuel Hoare and Sir William Jognson-Hicks had drawn attention to the grievances under which the Indian Civil Service laboured. and the former had impressed upon the Government the nosessity of an inquiry, i pies which was subsequently reinforced by Sir D. Maclean. Sir William Juyn son-Hicks viewed with alarm the rapidity | with which the Indianization of the Indian Civil Service was being, aceriis

The Prime Minister sought to allay all fears which are felt by that Service, which he described as the steel frame of the whole structure.Take away that steel frame," he said, if and the whole fabric will collapse" With all the powers of eloquence at his dispon he paid tribute to that Service which had helped India to its present status, and he made it clear that no idea of winding it up was ent templated.
