Of the Hotten tots we have often heard ; but- - as- • these - reo& feted so much under,the cruelty of the Dutch, it was not tO be supposed that any authentic atscrip_ tion of their oharaCter and manners would lac given. by their tyrants Mr.. Bmotoi,V, a very intelligent and apparently a.very impartial Writer, has lately published his. "'ravels in Southern, Africa.'• 'From his Work we extract sonic account "of this unfortu— nate race ofbeings; which we. dotibt .not will be 'interesting to every -friend of • Humanity, a-3 their 'stiferings will of course bi- . _ mitigated under the mild controul of British ju3tice and benevolence. • • • " These weak peoi3k., the most helpless, and in their present condition perhaps . the most wretched., of die human race, duped out of their Possessions, their Country; and finally - out of their Liberty, have entailed upon their miserable offspring ti state of existence to whiCh that of Slavery bight bear the comparison of happinesS. It is a condition,- how ever, not likely to continue -to a very remote po sterity.. The name of Hottentot will be forgotten, or remembered only as that of a deceased person of little note. Their numbers of late years have ra •pidly declined., It has generally been observed that wherever Europeans have coloniied, the lesS, civilized natives lave always dwindled away, and; at length, totally disappeared. • Various causes have contributed to the depopulation of the Hottentots., The impolitic custom of :hording together in fami„ lies, and of not marrying out of their own kraals, has, no doubt, tended to enervate this race of men, and reduced them to their present degenerated con.: dition, which is that of a languid, listlesS,,phlegma_ tic people, in whom the prolific powers of nature seem to be almost exhausted. To this maybe' add; ed their extreme .poverty, , scantiness of food, and continual dejeaion of mind, arising from the cruel treatment they receive from an inhuman and unfeel ing peasantry, who haVing discovered themselves to be removed to too great a distance from the seat of their former Government to be awed by its autho rity, have exercised, in the most wanton and bar barous manner, an absolute power over these poor wretches, reduced.t6 the‘rtiesciVrof deperiding upon . themfor amorsel ofliitgad;,,' There is scarcely an in stake of cruelty said,tbhave been - COnuittedagainst the Staves in the Weo„lnclia Islands, that .could not find a parallel from die Dutch Farmers of there mote parts of the colOny,, towards the Hottentots in their- service.. Beating and cutting. them : with thongs. of the hide of the sea..cotv - cow is a „gentle punishment, though these - sort ol•whips, which they call- skamb9s, are most horrid.rinstrU. mutts, tough, pliant, arid heavy altdost" as lead. Firing small shot itito the legs and thighs of a ,Hotteotot is a pitnishment . not unknoWn to some of the. monsters who :inhabit the neighbourhood of Oaintoos river.. Instant:death is not unfrequently the-consequence of punishing these poor wretches . in.a moment 'of rage. This is of little consequence to. the Faancr ; for though they arc to all intents and pufposcs his SlaVei, yet they'are not transfer able property. It is this circumstance which, in his mind, makes their - lives less valuable and their treatment more inhuman. " In offences of too small moment to stir up the phlegm of a Dutch peasatit, the coolness and tran quillity displayed at the . pnisluncrit cf Slave or Hottentot is highly ricliculotg; and at the same time indicative of a savage disposition to unfeeling. cruel ty lurking in his heart. He fh+gs them, not by any giVen.numbcr of lashes, but by time ; and as they .have no clocks, nor 'substitutc for them capable of marking the- smaller divisions of time,: he has in vented an excuS:: for the it,dulgence` of one of. his most favorite scnsualities, flogging -them till he has smoked as many pipes of tobacco .as' he may judge the magnitude of the crime to deserve. The Government of Kalacca, according to the .manu script journal of ao, intelligent Offiterity the Expe dition against that:SettleMent, ha's'adopted: the same custom of Agging by. pipes and khe Fiscal or Chief Magistrate, or some of his Deputies, are the Smokers on such occasions."
