may here add that his brother Moses
Boyle, was captured also at Spring
Garden; but in the endeavor to take him
he was much cut up, having fought des-
perately.
THE c0NsPIRAToRs PLAN.
Among the reasonable documents re-
Gently captured by the authorities in
their search since the outbreak in st.
Thomas in the East is "a Plan of Kings
ton" said to have been prepared under
the direction of General Lamothe, the
Haytien refugee.
The plan presents the point at which
the city was to be fired-the points to
which it was expected the authorities
would repair-the point at which the
massacre was to commence, and the
points at which posts were to be station
ed, SO as to cut oft flight ofthose who
escaped to the roads leading out of the
city. The conspirators were to await
the arrival of the troops at the scene OF
confagration, and then on given signal
were to seize the. camp, the barracks,
the arsenal and the batteries there was
10 nave followed a general massacre in
every street from both ends, every house
being entereda and searched.
GEN. LAMoTHE IMPLICATED.
me schooner Oracle, which sailed lust
before the outbreak, ostensibly for Ina
qua, strange to say, put into Port An
ionic on the 18th with flag of distress,
statlng that the vessel had sprunga leak.
from information that has been sup
piled to the authorities she was seized,
and twas proved that she had on board
General Lamothe and other passengers
with large quantity of munitions of
war. General LamOthe offered E2,OOO
to Mr.. Paul Ramsay, the Inspector of
Police, If he would permithim to escape.
The offer was Indignantly refused. The
Oracle was brought up to Kingston i'm
tow of one of her Majesty's vessels of
war, who delivered over the prisoners
to the guard ship Aboukir, where they
were to await the decision of the author
tiles.
THE PLAN FOR A GENERAL RISING.
From all that can be gathered it an
pears thatthe outbreak at Morant Bay was |
premature. 1t was tohave commenced. |
according to the best information that |
can be obtained, OH Christmas Eve. and |
was to have been general throughout |
the Island. In support of this, it is
strange that verification Of this infor-
nation should have been elected from
prisoner In the general penitentiary.

Since the Sepoy war, we have had no
such record of atrocities as is contained
IN the foregoing. And we find ver%Iittle
