The Stockton Argus after remarking that
the Hmper's Ferry insurrectiCn has called to
recollection the different slave insurrections
throughout the Union at former periods, pro
ceeds to give the following account of IT,,
negro outbreak in New York city, in l74l
The city of New York then contained l2,-
600 inhabtants, of whom 2 900 were slaves.
This insurrectinn, or rather attempt at insur-
rection, was commenced in February of 1871 ,
toy numerous incendiary attempts to fire the
city At first, these created no suspicion,
but they increased so rapidly that public at
tention was excited aud the casual language
Of three negroes being overheard, threaten
ing the destruction Of the city 10y fire, and a
negro being seen escaping from n burning
building that he had fired, immediate steps
were taken 10y offering rewards to ascertain
the true state of affairs. A negro girl be-
longing to white man, engaged in the plot,
finally disclosed the diabOlicnl conspiracy,
which was to burn the city and massacre the
inhabitants They intended to fire different
quarters at the same moment, on st. Patrick 5
night, and to surround the English Church,
where generally large congregation assem-
bled, and to massacre them as they rushed
from that building during the alarm. Each
negro was to set fire to his own masters
building, and was furnished with knives to
murder their families, as those were noiseless
weapons and could he used more eifectually
than firearms.
1t was ascertaned that large number of
negroes and about twenty whites were en-
gagged in this conspiracy. Hughson, the own
er of the girl who made the disclosures, and
a Catholic Priest, named Ury. were the lead
crs of the plot Ury swore the whites to Sc
crecy, and Hughson and Ury both swore the
negroes by forming them in a ring and hold
ing crueitix over their heads while admins
tering the oath. The plot was, by means Of
the negro girl, broken up The priest Ury
and Hughson were convicted and hung. Two
other whites confessed and were pardoned
and sixteen whites arrested were discharged
or transported. Thirteen negroes were burn
ed at tile stake, eighteen hanged, and seventy
transported to the West Indies. The total
number of blacks arrested amounted to one
hundred and fifty -four. The people of New
York in those days had narrow escape from
a most bloody scene.
