si7) . .Nisii,•:,CO'l,..),:i . k.i. the, Spanish colonists Must have enjoyed unuer nine European Spaniards, who had nothing to dread but an examination of theit conduct at two thousand leagues distance from the theatre of their injustice. The rouse' de of this systern suffie ciently apparent. Prosperity, and its foil:elation, security, were Duly Ao..be found in interest and favour. The crowds of ' flatterers who thronged the palace of the Spanish Monarch fell infinitely short of those which surrounded the Viceroy of Mexico. His, secretary was gem :rally the fa vourite, the intAiator through whom _ petitions reached the idol; and the grants descended to those who could enfiTe, them 'with the most suitLl able offerings. Dreadful as the corruption of the late Court of Madrid was, it, must have appeared pure and exemplary *hell (onippred with .the :yes nality of the viceroyal courts of-Spanish America. That honourable exceptions arc 'to bet among the Spanish viceroys, we are far. from .bringing - "into question ; but how' cruelly must that people 'be oppressed, whose moments of hap piness are to be counted by exceptions 'Oppress,ion' Can ti - everT bear equally 'upon oil classes; and especially when the community is divided into CH ,as in Spanish America: II:44 out speaking of those which are Constitution ally. degrided, as the.ladians and lqestizoes, we shall merely point out the 'effect which the unlimited powers of the Spanish' governors naturally pro duced on that numerous and powerful class, the Spanish Creoles t. • Those who are thoroughly accrainted with the character and circumstances of 'the -two rival parties, the old Spaniards ..11:1 Creoles, in Spc..;. nish America, will rather feel inclined to wonder at the- extraordinary forbearance of the later, than at the -war which they are. now . waging against the former. Let it be considered that the ,number of Spaniards'fn th e co l on i es b ears no proportion to the Creole population ;" that these Creoles, being the descendants of Spanish merehan4, en joy, considerable wealth, and an education far e;u perior to that of which th.eir fathers could boast; while, on the other hand, very few of their.rivals have the least title, from birth,•education, - 'ot any other circumstance, to that superiority which they claim. Exclusively of those wloi are eni ployed-in the higher situations of Government, the Spaniards- who resort to the colonies to ac quire a fortune, arc, with few exceptionS, a lOW, plodding set of - people, who would never have risen from 'the humblest' situations bad they re mained inthe Peninsula, and who geneially com mence-their operations in America, in the same way. -Biseay,. Asturias, Galicia, and Catalonia, have constantly sent out swarms" of .adventurers, among whom, those who expected to begin their career behind a counter in- one of the shops of 'Vera Cruz; or Mexico, thought too highly 'of themselves to associate with the rest of their coni panions. But the-means of making a fOrtune are so easy in, Spanish America, for.those who obje c t to no sort of occupation, that there is hardly one of these adventurers who, in the course Or a few years, is not enabled to Vie in riches with the old families 'of' the country. At fist they their pride to that superiority which Spaniards of all ranks claim in the colonies, and to the privilege of hidalguid or nobility„ which is to be found even among Spanish beggars:, but.no sooner have they acquired property, than apart of it is des- ! tined to purchase honours at the court of Madrid. The wealthy drudge enjoys them 'behind his coup- ter ; and nothing is more common than to see . people of this descrlption, in their tawdry uni forins of captains,' colonels, with -a ha;:lge; of one of the Orders of Spain on their breasts, sit-; 1 tini , in their shops, and occasionally helping their clerks.. to dispatch the customers •eiho come for a . -yard of cloth or calico. t • While the proud pretensions of this gross un educated party, supported by the Spaniards in, power, naturally excite dissatisfaction in the Creole gentry,. the oppressive measures Which they, promote against the interest of the land, cannot fail to prOduce hatred, and an eager thirst for revenge. The Spanish merchants of Aiiierica consider themselves exclusively -entitled to the profits of trade,---qrade, not grounded upon the mutual advantages of buyer and Seiler, but rather au oppressive monopoly, by which thq oblige a whole population to take whatever they import from the mother coUntrY, extortive the most' ex travagant, prices, by all the means which a market that excludes competition can afford. t W shall not enter into a separate discussion about;the state of opinion- among the Indians, for.lbis poor degraded race have none at ail. But ,we do not pretend to say," that this state of mental degradation -renders them insignificant in the present contest. On the contrary, we reckon them a most powerful tool. - Their number, in Spanish America, is about seven millions, which forms inure than one half the po pulation of the country. Enjoying very little or no property,. they lire ready to follow any leaders who will conduct there to war against the Spaniards. - - - it . As the common census makes ; no distinttion between -Creoles and Spaniards, it is - impossible to ascertain the exact number of each ; but the Reader may judge from the follow ing data. "In ti:e capital of Mexico, according to the envie meration of the .Count of Iteviliagigedo, in every 100 inha tants, forty-nine-are Simaish Creoles, two Spaniards born in „Europe, twenty-four Artec and OtOrhittee Indians, and twen ty-five people of colour."-4lumboldt, Bocik 2, vii. I Mr. Walton has pleasantly described the prejudices which the employments of the European adventurers 'have excited among the Creoles. The picture is correct in all it 3 pates, and- will'eontribute to give an idea of the habits and nianners of the.rival parties. ' The Spaniards of Arnerica'•possess few of the component traits of their European countrymen; but if any, it is of the -Andalusian, with whom also they most assimilate. The Creole has imbibed against the natives of the other provinces of 'gain, peculiar prejudices, derived from their leading oc cupations wad manners. A native mother of the country op poses 'the marriagi, of her daughter with a rich Catalan, be cause be has made his fortune by drawing wine, selling but ter-and cheese, and is 111.thv in ins person; with theG2dlician, because he is a plotiding,.-hard-Working person, and the ap pellation of Gallego is almost synonymous with that of a iorter in avert' province in Spain ; with the Biscay an, because he is I , oisterons. and tyraunic, partaking of the peculiar - tinge of his province, fiery, impatient, and.. jealous; ,the Cacti herause 111 is Su;l-ni, re,vrved. opposedlo spew and F....- rade ; in short, w ith a ll th e p r e ceding, from their pedukar jargon of 'provincial dialect ; (Mr. Walton ought to have ex &clued the (;astilians, who speak thepurest Spanisl butt in the Andalusian, s h e fi n d s a ga i ety, spr i g h t li ness, .anima tion, softer nrodulations,of language and expression. more conge nial manners, and an elevation of character not de,cending to the call s - o f P o rte rs . an d pe dl ars; l ienct, thoc , s l) ;cis rich, site prefers him.

The ')opulation of the Spanish coMnies insv r bt) consii:ered as divided into five classes ;' Ist; . runr,is born in Old Spain ; The descendants of Europerms, witbOu , any mixture of African or blood, callcl Creoles; - 3dly,..The clifierent races Mulattfc.s and ?Jest - jibes, or the issue of • the crossings of the European, lot - Tian, and 'Afri can -blood ; 4thly, The - Indians -Cr '.Aborigines ; .sthly ; The. huported, AfriCan The first two classes, from theirpolitical importance, chiefly deserve our atteption. • What the old Spaniards are, when transplanted to their American colonies, or what peculiar turn their national character takes in that particular situation s would not be a difficult point for con jecture, eien 'if 'ale were deprived of facts and ob . - servations. Prejudices are strong- in proportion • to tiieir range,. and evidently derive activity from the numbers which adopt them. Family prejit 'dices 'are more tenacious than those ,of individuals, tlrel national prejudices exceed - both; in violence -and duration. Those, ~especially, which are grounded on pretensions to superiority over a par ,titular set or nation, are so early imbibed by all classes of the state, so indissolubly blended with every individual feeling, that their conjoint Cr n^ , tional effects are, astonishing, even when culture has scarcely left any visible traces of themin the common intercourse of life. • We may conceive what the national prejudices • of th Spaniards, with' 'respect to their colonies, now are, from the manner is - which their ances tors took posSession of them, and the authority which the descendants of those conquerors have enjoyed there during four centuries. 'The Spanish adventurers who flocked to Anierica, immediately after the discovery of those countries, considered them in the light of a wilderness occupied merely by'four and two footed game, of which they might' dispose at their pleasure. The avowed and infi nite cruelties which they committed without the least feeling of remorse, would demonstrate, if other proofs were- wanting, the general opinion which prevailed for souse time among them,' of the - irrationality of the-Indians: It will be easiltcouceived that the overhearing pride of the first conquerors, swelled with the de- struction or submission of the Indians, was trans- witted in full force to the adventurers whom the thirst -of-gold, and the desireof living freely at an immense-distance from .the seat of government, allured to those fertile regions. Those whose haughty and turbulent character was scarcely to be curbed by the "authority of a powerful save-, reign, must have exerted a dreadful sway over the conquered Indians*. Every ,Spaniard thought "himself a sovereign from the moment that he set his foot on the shores'Of America; andthe kinga of Spain would liaise soon _last their newly-sc. quired dominions, but for the uncoritroulable pride of the advehturers, - . :which operated as: a check on their mutual ambition. The first generation of Creoles., though born upoil the soil of America, naturally considered themselves as true Spaniards, since they could boast no other title to the superiority which they claimed over the natives ; and it is probable that many years elapsed before any degree of national interest was felt by those new natives of the Ame rican continent. put When they began to mul tiply,, and the ties of parentage between them and the European Spaniards were successively weakened----when, in the course of centuries, the natural connexions which arise from a native soil, ma - des the Creoles consider themselves as a people, seeds of jealousy against the mother country sprung up, the growth of which nothing could, check but a system of equity and modera tion, seldom, if ever, observed by any-govern ment with respect to colonies or conquered coun tries ; by none less than the despotic and tyran nical Court of Madrid. - • The government of the Spanish colonies was entirely confided to the hands of viceroys and captains 7 general, who had under them several military governors and intendants,; the admini stration of justice being : committed to the Au- dienciav or, tribunals, which .resided in the capi- tats, "and were presided over by the respective viceroys .and captains-general. The people, t )tiugh: nominally represented by the Cabildos or t corporations, had; in fact, no check upon the authority of their governors. The members . of the Andie,Aciai werL4old .Spaniards ; and par took of the haughty spirit Which considered i the Creoles as inferior to their Own. coantryinen. With respect to the town corporations,-nothing could he inure insiga:fieant. The seats were, &it the must part, tilled up - by the Court of.-Spaia : several were the property of particular families, and all of them were" - considered as empty ho- pours, With which the' timid:ainhition 0f some w: tally Creoles .might be athuSed. The viceroy was, in fact,.: as absolute as the monarch . whom•he represented; and cdthongh by law responsible for his conduct to the Connell of Indies resident at Madrid, on the expiration of his commission, the same laws deciaredthat the viceroy was. to be obeyed as the king in person.. ft would be needless to expatiatelipon - the futility of such responsibility. The 'hope of redress, is - but a feeble . - consolation fOr s aetuaLoppress . lon, even when the redresser is - at band.

The well-l:nown simile of the sa - , who!cut down the ii te in ordei to pluck its fruit, (used by Montesqlpen to ._xemplify fei_sts al despotism) was litcrallY applicable to the Spanish colonial system. A Spanish colonist could not enjoy the advantages so lavishly bestowed. on those beatitiful countries. 'The eyes of a sushi-. ciojl , and oppressive government were. constantly tvatching the progress of his indu r stry. To sow or plant, he was pot to eonsult the ntiture of the soil, but the .government. Vines and olives, the two great blessings of temperate countries, were forbidden to grow in his 'fields, by proclamoti6n. :30e! e'i nd iv idnals lenhplairted vineyards in Mexieo. Whed:er the Viceroy winked at this infraction of tbe colonial regulations, or was ignorant of it, we cannot say i the Spanish merchants, howeviir, Who were quicker sighted, gave-the alarm to their 'Correspondents at Cadiz. Complaint was in sta:Aly made to .the Court of Madrid, whence an order :slued fOr rooting up the Vines, inpursuance Of the right enjoyed by, the Cadiz merchants of administering 'to the wants of the Americon pea p!e, at Alois oven discretion. ft would be endless to enumerate the grievances which the colonies suffered, from the combined action of tyranny and monopoly. Vague and de sultory as Mr. Walfon's account of appears to be, it, is yet more than sufficient to account for the - state of habitual discontcpt, to -which the Creoles were - imnperceptiuly brough',- not less by this palpable injustice, than by the civilizatidu which the natural pi-Ogress, of - human societies' must aLvays increase, in spite of the trammels, imposed by the blinde , ,t- of . governments. While the Cl'ecle7s conceived that their security against the Indians,•thenegro Sla - Ves, and the MiC . - ed casts„denended onthe union of the whole 'En ropean raee, the Spaniards- could- oppress them. with- iinnenity: From this principle Humboldt very "satisfactorily accounts for the passive state Of the Spanish colonies, 'during the succession war in 8- - ain. But - the Indians here been so' complete ly subdued, and /he Creole population has so much increased since that period, that the same tran quility and passiveness could not be. lOdked for, When the lute slt , Ock of the Spanish throne bevyaken ed them to the hopes of bettering their condition. There was a 'period When the whole mass of na tive poi niation entertained such an opinion of the knowledge and power of the mother country, that they would have shut their eyes in reverential awe to wlllitever injustice she might commit, but the political events of our owai times have destroyed all traces of this powerful illusion. The American war, in Which Spain engaged with the most un 7 accountable degree of folly, could not but excite the attention or the Spanish Creoles. They must have compared their own situation , with that of their neighbours, and perceived- bow much' more galling were their own grievances than those which producul the successful-resistance of the Englfth colonies, They must ha;'e reflected on the incon sistency of the Spanish Goyeenment, who with one hand was' helping English-subjects .to throw off their allegiance, and with the other binding its own - in the most intolerable chains ever devised by oppression. . About that .peri6d, the works of the French philosophers found their way into Spanish Ame rica, in despite of the terrors of the 4nquisition. This- circumstance, which was scarcely noticed- at the time, proved momentous ill the highest' degree, and,athidSt Silence- and obscurity, opc.rated 'with fearful effeet in Undermining the fabric of despotism. Reading is one of those pleasures which acer tain degree of eAe and comfOrt- will never fail to generate among all sorts Of people. The higher Glasses in the Spanish colonies had arrived at that state in conSeqnence of their wealth, and books'. Were an article not a little in request among them. Books, of course, were always put inthe askort meritof those cargoes of tnsh of all kinds, which were constantly sent out from Spain 'to the colo nies. We have ourselves witnessed the making up of these literary bales, in one of the principal towns &t Spain, and could scarcely rceress the feelings of indignation s ,, ,nd pity', Which arose from; inspecting the .worhs . seleeted for this purpOse The glass beads which the first adventurers bar teyed for gold with the shit* tribes of Indians, were real treasures, in comparison of the literary filth which the Spaniards c:eported to the colonies with the certainty of selling it at the most extra, vagant With the'inconsisteney peculiar to despotic go vernments, universities had been established at Mexico and Lima, to vbich even Professors -of Mathematics were appointed. Thus, while they •exalted the thirst for knowledge, they foolishly, expected that the Ainefican youth would be still contented to seek itin those ponds of ignorance and superstition whip 'had been prescribed to diem. The Consequences of such a - systein may be easily guessed. No sooner bad the works of the 4_ _ - French philosophers found their way into the po lonics, than they were read with an avidity beyond eNprenion. The factli;ty with which their gene ral prineiples are seized, the common-place know, _ _ ledge kith which they . enahle young people to shine'in conversation, the, contempt and hatred which they breathe against what they denomi nate oppression, occasioned them to be looked on. as int - aliiable treasures. The danger whi . eh at tended their perusal naturally e':.hanced the hter . _ . est which' they excited. There are instances'of people who retired from all,sorts of business into the country, to devote themselves Wholly to the study, of the French Political nnd moral writers: We, who have witnessed the: effect of their ddetrines . in this free and happy ,country, during the ferment of the French ReVolution, when they threatened to overthrow - the maj4tic fahric of our Constitution, in-6y easily conceive how - ,hey must have operated where every Civil and religious kin stitution•tends to countenance the bold assertions 'of those artful apbStles of anarchy . and It would be difficult, xy-' ithoutthcse premises, to account for the contrast , •whichllumboldt ohierv- ed between the people of the inierior provinces of 2,lexic . co and. the enlightened clas7,es" of the capital.
