Jamaica —The Reality of the Negro
Plot Affiirmed—Colonial Defense of
the Government. . ‘
From the Kingston Standard. Dee. o.]
The reviews of the rebellion taken by
.certain journals of the mother country
have not surprised any one here. It could
not be expected by those who have so
-systematically labored since emancipation
to prove the negro a “lamb” and the plan
ter a ravenous,“wolf,” determined to de
vour the former, right or wrong, would
give up their prejudices so very easily and.
adopt opposite convictions, however great
the evidence offered to them of their first
mistake. The negroes'in Jamaica had
nothing to complain of. They enjoyed all
the rights and liberties equally with the
whites or browns. At ali events, those
who rebelled against the constituted au
thorities of jthe land and dipped their
hands, under circumstances of great atroci
ty, into the blood of the victims in St.
Thomas in the East, advanced no motive,
even at the foot of the gallows, for su«i a
diabolical course, except this : u That they
designed to exterrmnatc the white and cat
wiPPpSW Wo
jrfQp and children were preserved from
death only to be submitted to a slavery and
degradation a thousand times worse. The
women, when deprived pf their protect
ors, were to subserve to lustful pleasures
of the disgusting murderers, and the chil
dren were to be disposed of in some equally
horrible manner. These are no mere fancies.
The rebels themselves, executed at different
points, far distant from one another,
and without the possibility of communica
tion, adhered consistently in tlieir last mo
ments to the declaration of this plot. Near
ly all spoke of an oath sworn to oy them to
accomplish the end, so fearful in its terms
and so well calculated to influence most su
perstitious terror in those who took it that
all refused to repeat it. The programme
was carried out systematically, and the fact
is the best denial that can be offered to
those who believe that the excesses com
mitted were only such as ordinarily take
place when a populace of any kind “ break
into wild riot.” In the first place the rebels
took no drink ; they kept their senses clear
for what they about: they burnt no build
ings, except by accident; they destroyed
no machinery, but simply maimed por
tions of the work of the estates, so that such
works might, as they stated, be easily re
stored to efficiency when they became
themselves the proprietors of the same after
exterminating the rightful owners. They
killed no women and children, but only
men. They abstained from touching the
property of any connected with the “ Ma
roons,” for tear of alienating the support
which they expecting from that people.
Could a mere mob have acted so much re
serve and system? It is true the rebels
fled, and no where attempted to make head
against the regular troops; but this was
owing to a panic having been produced
among them, by the unexpected arrival of
the troops among then*and the terrible re
tribution which was dealt a
moment’s hesitation upon those who were
taken.
The spirit that has since manifested it
self over the entire island shows clearly
that, although the troops fought no great
battles, the able dispositions that were
made of them at all events prevented bat
tles being fought, by encircling the rebels
everywhere, and effectually preventing the
rallying of tbe dispersed bands which
might have led to reorganization and re
sistance. It was quite true what his Ex
cellency, the Governor, has stated in his
speech, that any delay or reverse on the
part of the troops would have lit the torch
of revolt from one end of the island to the
other. Let, therefore, Britisli v iiegro sym
pathizers say as they like, and from a dis
tance, apply to the investigation of this re
bellion the false theories by means of which
they have already wrought so much injury
to the negroes themselves and all but ruin
ed the unfortunate planters of those colo
nies; the facts stated here are irresistible,
and will, we hope, be allowed to stand
out with all due importance before those
s^hose province it is to decide on the prop
er remedies to be applied to our present
condition.
Personal.— lion. Sidney EdgeVton,
Governor of Montana, is at the National.
From him we have gathered some interes
ting facts with regard to
Montana,
which was organized as a Territory only
about two years ago, and which now con
tains some 30,000 inhabitants, The recent
settlers are hardy, industrious, enterprising,
and intelligent, and consists largely of fami
lies who will make the Territory their fu
ture home. During the past year'slo,ooo,ooo
have been taken from the mines, and the
revenue tax paid to the Government was
SI,OOO. Hitherto gold has been mostly ob
tained by placer mining, but more recent-,
ly extensive mills have been erected for
crushing quart", all of which are paying.
The minerals of the Territory consists of
gold, silver, copper, lead, iron and coal; and
wood, water and stone are sufficiently
abundant for all practical purposes. As
an agricultural region it offers superior in
ducements to settlers. Cattle fatten iu win
ter on uncut “bunch grass,” an indigenous
variety and almost as nutritious as grain.
The temperature is steady, and the atmos
phere dry. Little rain falling in sununer
and little snow in winter.
The two most prominent cities is Vir
ginia City and Helena, each containing
from six to ten thousand inhabitants. The
latter is but one year old, and in the form
er are substantial blocks of stone buildings
that compare favorably with those of
older cities ‘in the State. Goods are
abundant, as well as provisions. The
former are transported by overland trains,
or from the head of navigation, a dis
tance of 125 miles, and the latter from
Salt Lake, and hence command a high
price, flour selling at from S2O to sss per
cwt.
The Governor is confident that the Ter
ritory will be self-sustaining within two
years. Asa mining country he considers
it the best on the continent, and a country
most favorable for the settlement of those
who desire a healthful, beautiful, and gold
en country. —National Intelligencer.
B®-The Washington correspondent of
the Philadelphia Ledger writes that it ap-
Jears to be now pretty well settled that the

to include generals who served during the
war, loyal and disloyal citizens of the
South, correspondents of the press who
have.visited the South since the cessation
of the war, Government agents, such as
Carl Schurz, and, in short, all who would
be likely to afford enlightenment on the
subject.

A ft’om the Grave.
PrM the St.' fttaM Hews, Dec. % 1885.]
'Rife following strange circumstance,
among the most rSomarkable that occurred
during the war, is vouched forby Cal. Ellis,
. late lot the Ist Missouri cavalry, aud can
be attested by tlje parties concerned:
A few days after a tiorcely-contested bat
tle in thbKouth a' party of soldiers, belong
ing to the Ist Missquiß,.took a' jaunt over
the battle-field and came up to aspot where
the Rebel dead were buried. In one place
the hair of a man’s head was seen sticking
out Os the ground like a tuft of grass, and
near by a band was seen protruding up
wards, which evidently belonged to the
corpse that owned the head of hair.
Ope of the cavalrymen remarked to his
companions, in a spirit of thoughtless lev
4y; ‘See, tlfore’s a dead Rebel reaching
outforsomething; let’ssee what he wants.”
In the same spirit of wanton mischief, al
most recklessness, the cavalrymen took
hold of the man’s hand and hauled the.
body out of the grave, the loose dirt tailing
back into the shallow hole, Soon after
the man began to stir and manifest signs
of li|e, to the utter astonishment and lior- ■
ror of tbe resurrectionists.
The man was taken by his rescuers to
theiij tent, and. was rubbed down, washed
off, and in a few days became as “good as.
newJL He saidthatin the battle, he was"
stunned by the passage of a shell, which
knodteed hfm senseless. He was picked
ur> ainong the dedd and buried like the rest.
Not a scratch was found on the body. Ho
said that he had joined the rebel amiy and
fought the Uedcrals long and well; but as
this was his second appearance on earth,
he would now join the Federals and fight
for them. He accordingly enlisted in the
Ist Missouri, did a good deal of tough
marching and hard fighting, and last
September was mustered out of the service
and paid off at Benton Barracks.
In i.relating tho above to us last even
ing the Colonel had forgotten the man’s
name.
Truth is Stranger than Fiction.
That truth is stranger than fiction is as
serted by the Memphis Avalanche, which
cites the following:
Ten years ago, Mr. was married to
Miss ———j For a time all went well with
the happy pdlr, but whether prompted by
incompatibility of temper or through the
meddlesome interference of relatives or
friends “ye chronicler” knoweth not, only
that the demon of discard breathed upon
their young love, and it withered as a flow
er ’neath winter’s chilling breath. And,
to make a long story short, they separated.
Shortly after the separation, a little daugh
ter was born, and then a divorce obtained
—by which'’party obtained, it matters not.
For nine years—long weary years—they
lived apart—never seeing, never hearing
from or speaking of each other—and yet
both remaining true to love’s first bright
dream. The little girl grew up and was
taught to believe that her father was dead.
She had never seen him, or been seen by
him. All, who shall say how often during
those long, dreamy years, that the father’s
heart yearned for the sight; of his child,
and pined to hear the music of her voice.
And the mother—the wife that was—
was site happy ? Who shall tell ? Well,
ou the day before yesterday the lady, ac
companied by her little daughter, walked
into, a business house in this city, and met
him who was once her husband and the
father of her child, coming out. They
stood faee tp face, for the first time since
their separation—nine years ago. Both
stopped and gazed fixedly into each other’s
face. The father then turned his eyes to
the child, and, stooping down suddenly,
caught lior in his arms—pressed her pas
sionately to his bosom—rained a shower
of kisses upon her faee, then placing her
on floor, ho gave one glance at the
mother, and turned to go. Hearing his
name called in a low tone, he turned ! One
look, and they were in each other’s arms
They were left alone for a few mo
ments by the considerate kindness of the
parties present. Then a hack was called,
and in thirty minutes from their first
meeting they were married.
New Epidemic in Berlin.
The new epidemic which is exciting so
much alarm in Berlin is called trichina.
Up to last accounts 320 cases had occurred,
eighty of which had proved fatal. Asa
consequence a general strike has taken
place in the pork eating line. The trichina
spiralis is a small microscopic worm or
animalcule, which was first observed by
the distinguished anatomist. Richard
Owen, in 1836, and & found in the muscles
and intestines us various animate, espec
ially pigs and rabbits, in such enormous
quantities that a single ounce of pork is
said to contain occasionally as many as
one hundred thousand of these parasites.
By partaking of tbe meat infected with
them they are transferred to the human
body, causing intense suffering, which in
many instances, is followed by a painful
death. The first symptoms of trichinits
were noticed some years since in Dresden,
but no particular attention was paid to it
till the summer before last, when a number
of cases occurred both in Berlin and other
parts of Germany, which led to a medical
investigation of ibis novel form of disease.
As usual, the doctors were of different
opinions, some of them declared that it
Avas nothing else than what is generally
called measly pork, which had been
known for ages and lias ne\’er been thought
particularly dangerous; and although
many people refrained from'eating of the
unclean animal, especially in such Ger
man delicacies as raw ham and smoKed
sausages, the whole affair was beginning
to pass out of memory. The pork butchers
breathed more freely, Avhen a few Aveeks
ago it AA'as suddenly revived by the an
nouncement that at Hedersleben, a small
place in Prussian Saxony, the mysterious
disease had broken out with virulence and
was spreading OA r er the adjoining villages,
its origin being distinctly traceable to a
trichiifilerous hog which nad been killed
by tho butcher of the place and parcelled
out among the Inhabitants.

An Aneodote vs Palmerston.
In 1859 the editor of the Mexican Titties
was in England, and bo now relaiaa.
tlie following incident:
“Drivmgjrapidiymp tho Strand, w«f met
a man walking rery briskly, whom we
took to be our friend Prescoet, the afore-,
said sugar broker. Passing our arm over
the reins, we stopped the H* nsom, leaped
out and immediately overtook him.
“Walking side by side with' him for
some distance, and having eyed him very
closely, we were auro we had the man: so
turning sharply around, we flapped him
heavily on the shoulder, and said:
“ ‘How are you, old fellow"? You don't
know me, do you?|
“The gentleman gave me a freezing
stare, and said:
“ ‘No, sir; I don't know yofi.V
‘ ‘W e gave him another familiar slap, aad
said: .’rrff
“ ‘Why is it possible that you have f«r
gotten me ? Have you never beon to Ra- j
>n Rouge ? Don't you know Dan. Hlok
ey ? Don’t you recollect our bails at Brule's
Landing? Look at me well?' Don’t you
-know A. ?>
“With great sang froid he replied at
once. . .
“‘No, sir; J have never been to Baton
Rouge: I don’t know Dan, HickqV; I
don’t know anything about the bam of
Brule’s Banding; I Tiave looked at you
well—T (lon’tknW A.’ "
“Now, this was to us, a stunner. Wo
drew back, anti thinking he might possi
bly be a brother to the* sugar ma%
We said;
“ ‘Sir, be kind enough to tell me your
name.’
“He said quietly :
“ ‘My name is Palmerston.’
“ ‘What, Lord Palmerston?’
“ ‘The same.’
“We took off our hat and said:
‘ ‘My lord, pardon me for this rudeness.
I am an American, travelling for informa
tion and pleasure, and took you for one of
your countrymen, an old friend of mine. '
“Wo shall never forget the quizzical
smile that played upon the open, manly
features when ne replied :
“ ‘No matter, mistakes will happen.’
“A little conversation passed, in Which
lie was kind enough to invito us to call and
see him.”
American Actors and Actresses.
The London correspondent of the CHn
cinnatti Commercial says:
It is remarkable how largely, of late
years, the English stage has had to draw
upon the resources of American historic
talent. Indeed, nearly all the great theat
rical successes have latterly been achieved
by Americans. First came Southern, a
true American, though not born on our soil.
His popularity has never been surpassed
by any actor of ancient or modem times.
He has just returned to town after starring
in the provinces ; and his reception is one
of welcome. He is acting in “Brother
Bam. ’ ’ Have you pver heard what a splen
did fortune. Bothern is rolling up? He
gets $250 a night; and for several years his
receipts have equaled the modest sum of
$70,000 per year. He lives in a very fash
ionable quarter in London, not ostenta
tiously but elegantly, has the best literary
and artistic company, stands up for Amer
ica like a man, and is altogether a gener
ous and glorious fellow. In the season he
rides, gracefully, one of the finest horses
that is to be seen in Kotton Row.
Next in the order of success is Miss Bale
man. She has made an immense sum of
money, and has Just taken her leave of the
English stage, amid the most complimen
tary demonstrations. She has now re
turned to America, where she 1b soon to be
married and leave the stage—if she can!
I hardly like to mention it in this connec
tion, yet it cannot be doubted that in a cer
tain low, coarse and immodest stylo of act
ing she has had great success. Last sum
mer John E. Owens made a wonderful hit.
Just at present Mr. Jefferson, in “Rip Van
Winkle,” is giving to crowded houses, for
over the hundredth time in the Adolphi,
that specimen of wonderful acting which
has extorted the most enthusiastic praise
from the whole press and the public.—
Finally, on Tuesday night, the propretm
of the Burrey Theatre, who » mulatea the
enterprise of tho London managers in get
ting over American talent, ai nounced thq
early appearance of “that dstinguishtsl
American actress, Miss Avon a Jones.”
A Story of the King of Portugal.—
A Paris letter writer says :
“Last week a young foreigner, dressed
with perfect simplicity, went into De
visme’s, the gun-smith’s shop on the Bou
levard des Itallens, and asked fora double
barrelled gun to shoot wild boars, and ex
pressed his anxiety to try Devisme’s new
explosive balls. M. Devi sine happening
to be in his shop, entered into conversation
with the young man, and at once recog
nizing a genuine Nimrod, remarked tlmt
as it was absurd to try either guns or bails
in a mere shooting-gallery, he invited him
to his country place at Argenteuil, whore
he was going to shoot the following day,
and would be very happy to be accompa
nied by his new acquaintance. The young
man asked how long it would take to reach
his house. ‘Two hours,’ replied Devisme;
‘I start by the ten train. In half an hour
we shall reach our destination, and it will
take us about three-quarters of an hour to
try the guns, and half an hour to return ;
but it occurs to me that eleven is breakfast
hour. I can offer you a cutlet and an om
elet —hunter’s fare.’ ‘Bravo!’ said the
young foreigner; ‘I accept.’ After select
ing liis gun, Devisme inquired his name
and address. The young man took the
Een from M. Devisme, and wrote in the
ook of addresses ‘ltoi do Portugal, Grand
Hotel.’ ”
Pork and Piety in Chicago.—’ The
Chicago Post says:
We are assured that the following ab
stract of a conversation “on ’Change’’ yes
terday, or the day before, is not all there
was of it:
Prime Mess—Ah, brother Gunnybags, I
did not see you at the prayer meeting this
morning. It was a most feeling, and I maj
say a most profitable occasion.
Gunnybags—l wus detained by having
to look after that oats transaction. Had
private advices of a decline, and sold out
at half a cent advance before the news got
wind. Were there many on the repent
ance seat?
Prime Mess—Ah!—you were lucky—
they say oats are fully three-quarters be
low yesterday. Yes, there is reason to be
lieve that several were touched with the
spirit of grace.
Gunnybags—Pork is up. It is certainly
a great consolation to feel that the work of
grace is beginning. You’ll make a good
thing on that five hundrod barrels.
Prime Mess—ls sinners can only be
brought under its influence, the harvest of
righteousness will be great. I am offered
an advance of 25, but think it safe to hold
on a day or two.
G unnybags —Brother Hatfield forewarns
us against a coming crisis. . The gold mar
ket is certainly quite feverish. If sinners
could only be made to see the awful dan
ger in |vhich they stand —
Prime Mess—Do you really think pork
will go down? Twenty-five on five hun
dred, after all, isn’t so bad for a quick ope
ration. What a touching prayer was that
of brother .
