The Insurrection in Jamaica.

-~

TO TAE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SIR,—Finding the press so full of intelligence and
discussion regarding the Jamaica insurrection, I
have been unwilling to trespass upon it ; but as my
letter of 24th October supplies evidence not yet
published of the implication of Mr. George William
Gordon in it, I send you a copy, as follows

, - - -
" It appears now that this matter has been brew-
ing for a long time, and that for two years past we
have been sleeping on the brink of a volcano. The
disclosures made since I last wrote are fearful, and
no one had the most remote suspicion of the parties
implicated. Bad as the people were, who would
have thought that night after night they sat coolly
deliberating blood ; and, more than anything else,
it will astonish you to learn that the man who was
at the bottom of it all—the man by whose advice
these meetings were held, who appointed cap-
tains and lieutenants, and who planned the
whole scheme that was to annihilate all the
white blood of the island—was the man
thought so much of by many people. I could scarcely
realise the idea that George William Gordon had
been arrested in Kingston (boldly walking about
while this bloodshed was being perpetrated) till,with
manacled hands and military escort, he was con-
ducted on board the Wolverine for Morant Bay,
the scene of the foul slaughter that had occurred at
his instance and by his advice. I had a shadow of
doubt as he was thus walked away whether the
authorities could really bring home the bloodshed
to him, or whether, as some hoped, this awful state
of things was brought about by his preaching.
However, our minds were set at rest when intelli-
gence reached us from Morant Bay that a court-
martial was sitting on Gordon, and no proof was
wanting to condemn him to death. His office was
emptied of all papers belonging to him, letters and
papers of his were got in all parts of the country
urging the people to take the step. Dying men,
whom he had led to the gallows, in their last
breath, gave their confessions against him. yes_
terday morning, at 8 o'clock, he, along with 17
black men, were hanging in Morant Bay. ()
wretched fate that a man should so far forget him-
self, should be so dead to reason and to discretion,
as to contemplate and design the murder of thou-
sands of his fellow-creatures.—l am, sir, yours,
JAMAICA.
