which it appears that the police OF Richmond

TEE D.sTURRANCEs ~ JAMAICA

Our adyices received by the steamer from Jo-
maica yesterday show that doplorablc as are the
cycesscs which were committed by an iniuriaied
mob when the outbreak occurred, the affair was
not what ithas been represented, VIZ: aconcerted
movement among the Blacks all over the island
10 cxterminate the Whites and the Browns, and
10 make themselves masters Of the country. The
outbreak was confined TO one single parish out
Of the twenty-five parishes into which the island
Is divided. and did not extend even over the
whole of that district. In fact, IL Is described
bv The .Jamaira Guardian OF tho 18th inst, in
giving am account Of its incidents, not as a rebel
lion of the Blacks but as Riot and bloodshed
in ST. Thomas-in-the-East" II is true that
subsequently TO the publication OF that ac-
count. statements appeared in that paper and
other Kingston journals to the effect that the
st. Thomas-in-the East outbreak was only part
of widely-ramiGcd plot for the destruction Of
the Whites and the colored people by the
Blacks; but we have searched our exchange
files in vain for any evidence in support Of this
averment; and, indeed, we find 1t stated in
them that tranquility and order prevailed gem
orally throughout those parts Of the island not
Immediately adjacent 10 the scene Of the dis
turbances. That this outbreak is not negro
rebellion got mp for the determination OF the
Whites seems clear, from The fact that the
Naroons, who are all Blacks, have rendered
loyal and valuable service in capturing the in
surgents and defending the persons and prop
crty of the planters; and other Blacks, not be-
longing to that class Of people, have
done the same. And, even so far as
the particular parish in which the out
break occurred is concerned, it seems strange
that the Blacks, if intending massacre of the
other inhabitants, should have gone to work as
they did-that is have given what was equiv
alent TO a warning of their intentions, whereby
the authorities were enabled to have military
force on the spot to suppress the outbreak.
From all We can gather, it appears to us that
this outbreak, which was local IN It's character,
arose mainly from local causes peculiar to the
district in which it took place. Fear always
exaggerates danger, and we can make every al
lowance for those on the spot who saw in the
deplorable slaughter which resulted from the
fight between the volunteers and the mob, and
the subsequent murder Of several planters by
an infuriated populace, tho first developments
of conspiracy for tho destruction OF the
White, aud Browns; but, taking into account
