The Press agency have telegraphed from Wellington as follows “We have it on undoubted authority that there has been a gigantic conspiracy in Russia, though the fact had been officially denied. It was intended to assassinate the Governors of fourteen provinces. Some of the best families in the country are implicated. Young ladies have been arrested and sent to Siberia. The inhabitants of two whole villages hive also been sent there.” The Dally Times Says it would have been far more satisfactory had the Press Agency given us some clue to the source from which they received this news. It is not probable that the Agency has an emissary in the confidence of the conspirators, and, if wo knew where the information was obtained, we ■should be better able to form an opinion as to its reliability.
