(From the Morning Jou1ma1.)

The worst has been passed, thanks to
the vigorous action of the Government,
and people. begin to breathe freely once
more. A fortnight ago there was not one
OF US In this country, except those who
were in the secret of the rebels, who did
not believe that he was living in the
most absolute security, "a security not
guaranteed by guns and bayonets, for,
after all, there was not much of these ;
but a security based upon the most impli-
cit confidence IN the peaceable disposition,
the goodwill and loyalty of the people.
What a delusion all our hopes and reliance
have proved! What a broken reed was
that on which we leaned How fearful
it is to contemplate our position In our
tancied security we were slumbering on
the very brink of a volcano, whose irrup-
ton at any moment might have comprised
our destruction. The wretches who
sought to destroy the best blood of the
colony, whose aim it was to ~extinguish
the white and coloured races, to wipe
out, SO to say, the very intelligence of the
land, to level authority in the dust and set
up ignorance, corruption, and misrule in
its place, entered upon their diabolical
purpose a moment too soon, or perhaps
the annals of Jamaica would contain a
tale Of blood to be eqtalled by few Incl
dents in the whole record of history. In
the miscarriage of this diabolical plot, it
behoves us to recognize the hand of an
Allwise and Merciful Providence. From
facts which it is said the Government is pos
sessed of, a second massacre of st. Bartho-
Iomew was contemplated and what is the
the more painful to reflect upon is, that
there were many men in Kingston who
were deeply engaged in the conspiracy
men who had had their plans arranged,
who had their list of prescribed victims,
meeting commonly and exchanging civili-
ties with many Of those whom they had
devoted to destruction. There is some
thing awful in the contemplation of these
facts
And now that those against whom this
Uendetta was conceived have been provi-
dentially saved, one is led to inquire what
was the motive of those who gave them
selves up to such a spirit of develry and
set themselves to work out such a devilish
purpose7 We look back upon the rebel
lion of thirty years ago, and feel that there
was then d purpose to gain. The masses
were held in slavery, and the revolt then
was a blow struck for liberty but since
that period the people have gained their
freedom. That is, freedom was bestowed

WE learn from the St. Thomas Times of
the goth inst, that the English Ships of
War, sent to Cape Haitien, had taken sig
nal revenge over the rebel "Salnave'' and
his followers at the Cape. All their for
tifications were blown about their ears, and
the town was shortly afterwards taken
possession of by President Getfrard. Sal
nave and his fallen leaders We're received
on board the U. S. Wa Steamer "Desoto"
and were landed on som part of the Do
minican territory.

To the Editor of the St. CrOix Avis.
DEAR SIR,

LEAN O4h3
Permit me to ask when do the Santa
ry Commissions commence their House
to House visitation for the purpose Of
reporting upon the cleanliness OF our
towns II ask this the more earnestly
as several complaints have lately been made
of an offensive smell supposed to arise
from the drains in the Lagoon to the
Eastward of the town, remaining unOpeD,
whereby the water is allowed to collect
and stagnate.
It is a well known fact, that Hogs are
commonly kept within the precincts of
the town, and this when the Cholera is
reported to be in the neighboring Island
Of Guadeloupe, and the next European
Steamer may bring it into our nearest
vicinity from Southampton.
1t is now an admitted fact, that much
may easily be done and we'll done to meet
the ravages of Cholera before it makes
its appearance, which it is next to impos-
sible to do effectively when among us
cleanliness, Soap, White-wash, the re-
moval of all offensive matter, good drain
age, pure air and pure water take the
precedence of medicine in this fearful dis
ease, and the consultation of the most
talented medical men over a deceased
victim is but an attempt to shut the door
after the thief has entered the house.
Yours &C.,
