have been concerned in the recent heavy

two others, pamed Clark and Tristram, and
John B. Birmore were arrested. In Bar-

FROM THE WEST INDIES.
The intelligence from the-West India is
land of Guadaloupe is of a start ling and. omi
nous character. Cholera is still devastating
the island, and it is said that at the last ac
counts the daily average of deaths, in a
population of ten thousand people, was as
high as one hundred and thirty-one. At one
place, Point-a-Pitre, one hundred and forty-
nine persons died between the 19th aud 22d
of December. The whole population of the
island must soon be swept away if this rate of
mortality should continue. Stringent precau
tions were being taken to prevent the spared
of the pestilence to the other West India is
lands, and thus far with success. Cholera
was introduced in Guadaloupe by a vessel
from Marseilles, and the pilot of the ship is
in custody for his gross neglect in not giving
warning to the authorities that the disease
was on board.
The bill abolishing the old con
stitution of Jamaica, and vesting
all legislative power in the hands ot
nominees.of the Euglish crown, passed the
Colonial Parliament with closed doors some
lime ago; but it requires the sanction of the
home government to become a law. One ot
the Kingston papers, in noticing lately the
outcry with which the wholesale executions
in the island hud been received in Europe,
reaffirms that the negro plot was a stern and
horrible reality, and was only prevented
from developing itseli by the rapid move
ments of the troops..
The ex-EmfSeror Soulouque, of Hayti, with
his family aud suite, had arrived at tlve
Island of Curacoa, where he proposes to fix
his permanent residence, having been ban
ished from his place of exile in Jamaica.
