ASTOUNDING ORDER.
The Daily Express correspondent at Kingston (Jamaica), writing on December 27, stated that consternation had been aroused by an official intimation which had been received by the Governor that all the British troops were to be withdrawn from the West Indies. The coloured population of Jamaica is over three-quarters of million; the white population less than 15.000. In the smaller Colonics there is only a bandial of white men, and in the event of a rising they would be wiped out. Trinidad and Tobago contain nearly 300.00 blacks to about 1,400 whites, who are to be left wholly unpretooted. La Jamairs there are binok troops, but they are not to be depended upon for a moment in trouble, The Home Government wants volunteer forces to be raised, but the smaliness of the white population of most of the West Indian Colonies, the correspondent adds, makes the proposal quite impracticable. If the British troops are withdrawn it will give a moat unfortunate impetus to the movement favouring annexation to the United States.
