etenroue ntemiltes are not• adopted immediately, there is no
.mying what the consequences may be, and I fear the present
. . .Governor is not the man foe such times. The King's Procla-
. 'nation is of no use. Mr. Wilberforce's writings have pro-
duced this. Unless something decisive is soon done, God only
lawn what is to be our fate. We want troops and not religf.
Qua instructors; and I hope all connected with us will use
their influence with Government, and when they come every
parish should have a like protection, not to he kept in the
neighbourhood of Spanish Town or Kingston."
' Another letter from the borders of Hanover Parish, June 18.
" You will be sorry to hear that the north side of Jamaica is
egela in a state of alarm, from the rebellious spirit evinced on
many estates in the parish of Hanover. The first discovery was
nn Argyll state, the property of Mr. Malcolm. They, the
nefirees,propoeed to rise on the night of the 11th inst., and in
tbe first plate to murder their masters ; then proceed to murder
all the white people on the Estate, and after setting fire to the
works, to proceed to the neat property, to 'murder and destroy
with tire all in their way.
'" This plot was happily discovered about ten o'clock the
mine forenoon, and measures, taken to frustrate their plans I
the Western Interior Regiment was ordered out, and is now
nuttioned at Argyll Estate : there &reale* a body of regulars at
the Monipelieri Bridge, and every insecure is adopted to frus-
trate their evil designs.' I will not close this letter till the latest,
end in the mean time If any thing should occur, I shall inform
foe of it.
nth—Nothing farther has occurred as yet, but the at-
ODikat of the rebels hiving destroyed several horses and mules
twitalgiiig to Argyll Penn, • also that they still continue in a
body. The Trash hoiseee of Alexandria Estate have been
`.. burnt down, and as they took fire in several place* at the same
tne, it is fully believed it was intentionally done t also the
overseer's house in Golden Grove was forcibly entered, and all
Oro arms end ammunition •taken away."
