Further Trouble with the Negroes
--The Court Martial Still in Ses
sion--More Hanging-- . -The
Maroons in Favor with _
,the Administration- ,
,
Important Legislative
Enactments, etc.
Interesting Letter from Professor
Goldwin Smith.
Advices to the 6th instant have been re
ceived` from.; Kingston, Jamaica, by the
steamer Montezuma; which arrived at
New York on Saturday. •
' Order and tranquillity had been restored
throughout the island, but the authorities
were still busily employed in arresting and.
banging a large number of negroes.
Authentic information in regard to the
extent - arid ramifications of -the late out
break cannot begieaned from the Jamaicr
files at hand;, neither do they give the cor-
Tect number of negroes hanged,_ or the
mamea uf"politlcal prisoners" expelled from
the island. The Kingston journals all sup
port the policy -of the administration, and
speak in complinientary terms of Governor
_Eyre, for the; effective manner in which he
had suppressed the late outbreak.
The Maroons who had assisted in killing
a large number of negroes, at Morant Bay,
_met with a public reception, on. their return
to Kingston. • Their Colonel, A. G. Fyfe. in
a lengthy address, called their attention to a
-similar outbreak which took place in India
some years agd, and informed them that the
same' heroes_ " who had blown the rebels
from the months of cannons in India, penned
them into,their very forts and slaughtered
-them lik'Sheep; were on hand in Jamaica,
ready to]e-enact the same scenes if neces-
Th
sary. " 1
e following are the names of the officers
constituting the court martial, in session at
Morant -Bay . : Lieutenant Brands, Ensign
Taylor, Ensign, Code.
The House of Assembly , had authorized
a loan of $50,000, to meet the expenses of
suppressing the rebellion. A bill had been
introduced for confiscating rebel property.
Another bill provides against unauthorized
drilling, - and administering a maximum
punishment of seven years' penal servitude
to any one who shall drill himself or drill
others in the use of arms without authority
from the Governor.
The, most impo tis a bill introduced
by the government spending the present
constitution, aboli ing th 6 House of As
sembly and the eoislative Council, and
_pr ividing for the future government of the
Island by a Legislative Chamber, to be com
posed solely of nominees of the crown.
The• Events in Jamaica.
To the Editors of the Boston Daily Advertiser;
The second mail from Jamaica since the
outbreak of the so-called insurrection has
now fully delivered its contents, and the
English public are in a position to form a
tolerably accurate opinion as to the nature
and significance of these horrible events.
Nothing has occurred to prejudice, in the
estimation of any impartial observer the
character dr the claims of the negro race;
though many things have occurred to de•
monstrate the impolicy and injustice of al•
lowing the ex..slaveowner to exercise any
power over the ex-slave.
I speak as one fully sensible of the great
perplexities of the negro question and fully
aware how difficult it must be to introduce
political equality' without social fusion,or to
bring about real social fusion between races
severed from each other by color, by a phyrsi
•cal antipathy, and by the fatal memory of
the time when the men of one race were
masters, and the men of the other race were
their slaves.
As you know, we abolished at great cost
slavery in our West India possessions. We
found,after a patient, searching and judicial
•examination of the system, that if we did
not abolish" it, .it would bring upon us the
judgment of God.
At first we substituted a term of appren
ticeship. But we found that apprenticeship
was slavery , under another name, if it was
not worse. In two years, under the hypo
critical forms of law, 60,000 apprentices re
eeived, in the aggregate, one quarter of a
million of lashes, and 50,000 other punish
rnerrth by the tread-wheel, the chain-gang,
-and other means of legal torture.
We then abolished apprenticeship: But
we could not change the ex-slaveowner's
heart, and in -our somewhat exaggerated
and indiscriminate devotion to parliamen
tary instittitions r we have allowed his, pro
pensities too much scope. He has, by
various ntachinations, excluded the great
bulk of the negro population from the ex
ercise of the franchise, made the Assembly
an organ of his own prejudices and inte
rests, and by caste legislation created
among the .negroes a deep and natural
-dissatisfaction which without any organized
-conspiracy, iA no douht always ready to
- break forth in local manifestations of dis
-content. '
The intentions of the home government,
and its actions, so far as it has interposed,
have- been uniformly good and just. Its
veto has probably prevented , greater ex
cesses,of caste legislation, especially in the
direction of vagrancy laws. But it has not
_kept power enough in its hands;
The_spirit of the negroes had been embit
tered by distress, caused by a long diought.
A dispute arose as to the ownership of am
'estate from which a legal claimant was seek
ing •to eject the negro occupants who had
-settled upon it. In the course of the dis
.pute, a collision took place between the ne
groes and the legal authorities. The negroes
-surrounded' a court house in a tumultuous
manner. The riot act was read to them.
:Perhaps they did not very clearly under
stand it cor distinctly apprehend the conse- ,
.quences which the-disregard of it involved.
'They refused to disperse. -,They were then
Bred upon by, a party of:volunteers, and
•sonie of them, ' it appears, were killed and
- wounded. They thenrushed 'upon the party
"who had fired upon them and tore some of
them to pieces with circumstances of great
:atrocity. It was a most shocking and\re
-volting scene.; but. not nearly so shocking
as many that have occurred. in French and
Irish insurrectidns, where the mob.hadnot
been fired upon and had-received fib imme
diate provocation.
No doubt the feeling of the negroes
against the dominant Caste was unchained
by this encounter. • Yet the massacre
scarcely extended' beyond the scene of- the,
'original collision. Very few atrocities were
committed, so far as at present appears
-otherwise than in hot blood. On the other
hand, vad /earn, even from the adverse
'side, several remarkable instances of negro
mercy.
As the *le at present stands, there is
nothing whatever to prove peculiar, much
less indelible, ferocity in the negro race.
Rather the reverse. But the whites of the
island;the English officers who have been
corrupted by the blandishments of that de
praved society (for it is deeply depraved),.,
andoad to say, the Governor himself, have
committed inchStrocities, that if the home
government were to fail in its duty of vindi
cating-the character of this country, it will '
be - time: for an. Englishman who cares for
the hondr of his nation to look out for another
home. . - ,
No evidence of a wide-spread conspiracy
THE DAILY
or of a conspiracy of any kiri r i,lias yet been
produced by those who Ave most inter
ested in producing it; since the, proof that
such:a peril existed would, as they well
knew, be the only possible excuse (justifica
tion there could be none) for their violations
of humanity and law. All the evidence
before us tends to showthat the disturbance.
was local and accidental; though the dia..
content of the negroes may have been as
general as, it is to be feared, it was just.
The result, it is to be hoped, will be a
searching inquiry into the state of the island,
followed by the abolition or suspension of
its mock popular institutions, and its reduc
tion to the condition of a crown colony go
verned with full powers by a representation
of the Imperial Government, which, I re
peat, smcerely desires, and always has sin
cerely Aesired, to do justice to the public.
No evidence has been brought to light by
these transactions of the incorrigible. indo
lence of the free negro, any more than of
his incorrigible ferocity. Of course in his
desires, and consequently in his industry,
he is, /as yet, below :the level of races
which have enjoyed a long . training k in civi
lization. Naturally, this is a source to the
planter of great dissatisfaction. This is all
that has yet been proved against the negro
freeholder of Jamaica; and the Governor
himself complains that many of the disaf
fected are not poor and ignorant;but persons
of property and educafion, -which; without
industry and-trapticity for knowledge,they
could - not have obtained.
The London Timis is of course justifying
the Governor and, the ex-slaveowners in
their inhuman severities, and demanding
that the negro, as an incorrigible barbarian,
shall be put again under the lash. But . 1
confess that if I were compelled to pnt any
body under the lash on the ground of bar
barianism, I should on the evidence before
me, choose to put, not the ex-slave, but the
hex-slaveowner and the managers of the
Times.
At all events, I trust that the negro race. '
will net be allowed to suffer in the judg
ment of nations and statesmen for the al
leged faults of the negroes in Jamaica, untjl
judicial investigation shall have placed the
whole case of the negroes in Jamaica ando.f
their enemies fairly before the world.
Yours, citc. GOLDWIN SMITH.
