LONDON, FRIDAY, Juts 2, 1921.

Last :tight we received the French journals of Tuesday,
with the and Pit,br of Wednesday's date. They
are comparatively destitute of political interest, unless we
consider as such the speculations of the Paris editors on
the power
,of M. de %%Bele. Chateauhriand's paper, the
J,ar.zul des Delarts, is stialfast in its attack on the Minis-
try, and is extremely a'xiuus to show that it is in a totter-
ing state. On Tuesday it contained a report that Baron de
Dimas had tendered his resignation as Minister of Il'ar ;
but this statement was positively denied in the Poite of the
same evening. The French people, it may be remarked, take
little interest in this party war, and appear to be perfectly
indifferent as to whether M. Ile Villele keeps his place or not.
1:s the Chamber of Deputies, on Tuesday, the accounts of
tf:e expenditure of the French army in Spain were dis-
c The contract made with the Intendant-General, M.
4 li:vrartl, was particularly remarked upon ; M. de Villele
a hi•itted the biarthm-Jrnie nature of this bargain, but ob-
se:ved, that the Gover 1111 l ens were compelled to accede to
Ow terms of Ouvrard for the supply of the army ; and
that the complete manner in which the con-
tract hall been rrforined by the Intendant-General had
greatly facilitated the termination of the campaign. It is
, •taatao that M. ouvraed made a profit of nearly a mil-
-1 sterling. during the six months' campaign in the
I'minsula. The advices from Matlfil, in the Freud'

Kline very important intelligence was n•crived yesterday
front Trinidad, respecting tin. !unposed regulations fur the
future treatment of the slaves in that colony. A general
tise?ting of thc inhabitants, tuost numerously and respect-
attended, was held at Port Spain. on the ih of May, at
which the following petition to the Ilivernor was carried,
praying his Excellency to wasp:nil the pnimulgation of the
lat- order in council :
.• Te his Excellency Sir Ralph James %Vontifent, Ran (M-
-armite and Comma:Am in Chief in an 4 ore- the &IA is:and
and its Dependencies, Viee-AdmirJ of the same. ate.
" We, year !Nutlimas, his Majesty's loyal =4 dutifal sult;i:ts,

the flee inhabitants of the Island ef Tl;nidiul, respectfully approach
your Excellency. •
ii'e have read with 'grief and dilmay the draft of an order in
council, laid by his Majtraty`s Ministers 'before both liftmen of
Parliament, on the 170 h day of March last, and declared to be
intended fur the improvement of the condition of the slaves In this
colony.
" We recognise, to the fullest extent, the power of the Crown,
founded upon those principles of British justice which have se-
cured to the meanest subject of the realm the undisturbed color.
merit and use of his property, until he has received full and fair
ctonperaustion.
" We are sincerely impressed with a grateful 'roan of our gra-
cimis Sovereign's beneficent intentions. We dutifully sympathize
w:th his royal wish to meliorate the condition, and promote the
moist improvement, of the negrnea. by adoption measures in which I
due regard shall he paid to considerations of justice ; which, by
tempering zeal with motion, May lead to practical good; which,
without hazarding the fortunes and the safety of any elitism of his
Majesty's subjects, may promote the welfare of the slaves and that
of their employers.
" We appcal f.litlerily to your Excellency to witting, that every
'mart iii this island 111. at. in union with this his royal wish; that
these his rival word, infused joy and gladness into the breast of
every inhabitant of the colony.
" Animated by loyalty and by gratitude, we feel it to be our
first duty to aid in promoting these his gracious intention', and to
oppose ourselves to every obstacle which may tend to disappoint
his beneficent views. 'imitated by these sentiments only, we, the
free inha'ii'ants of the colony of Trinidad, respectfully beg leave
to express to your Excellency. our wilenin amviction, that the
execution of the whole provisions and clauses of the aforesaid
Order in Council will inevitably prove ruinous to the properly of
the master, injurious and demoralising to the slave, peculiarly
hazardous to the lire, of the free.colouml inhabitant. under hurt
of the alith clause of that Order, and totally subversive of our
Kenchma Sovereign's benign intentions.
M'.. your petitioners, therefore humbly pray that your Excel-
lency wiU he graciously pleased, tinder the authority vested in you
by the laws now in force, to stay the promulgation and the execu-
! tion of the proposed Order in Council, until a true representation of
its effects may be made to his Majesty's Ministers, to he laid at the
foot of the throne for his 31ajesty's gracious consideration.
" And by no doing your Excellency will avert that catastmphe
which moat otherwise involve every etas* in this colony in one
common ruin; and will deserve the sincere and grateful thanks
of a loyal anti affectionate community.
" And we your petitioners shall ever pray," &e.

- • •
A Committee W 39 nominated for presenting this petition,
land it was signed by above 'too persons before the meeting
'separated. 'l•he Chair was filled by Mr. Catlett, a highly
respectable colonist, who, previously to entering on the
business of the day, made Kline sensible observations on the
benevolent design with which his Majesty's Ministers bad
framed the Order in Council. The Chairman expressei his
confidence that this consideration would induce tit,:
Cnle-
nists to adopt a becoming tone in the language they might
use on an occasion so deeply interesting to them. This cau-
tion does not appear to have been given in vain. If we
diflis. in some respects from the argue entsof the Colonists,
we cannot too much applaud the tourr with which they con-
ducted their pioceedings. The princi pal speaker was the Hon.
Mr. Manley, who, in an address of great force and ability,
entered into the general question of colonial slavery, and
criticised with great severity the applicability of the Order
in Council to the present condition of
.the population fur
whose improvement it was drawn up. This gentleman's
speech was temarkable for an entire abstinence from all
personal reflections upon the " abolitionists." Under the
'trying circumstances in which the West Indians have
lately been situated, and knowing how illiberal mixed
bodies, possessing a common interest, usually arc, we con-
sider these compliments not more honourable to those on
whom they are bestowed, than to those by whom they are
given. One fact connected with the abolition of the slave
trade was brought forward by Mr. Burnley, and com-
mented upon with great effect. Common justice to the
colonists requires that it should be stated in his own lan-,
guage—

" One circumstance atten!leil this final act of abolition, which
nail much surprised him. Three month had been allowed to elapse
after the pvsing the Hill in the Ilium of 1 rolls. during which
time slave ships hail been allowed to dear nut from England to
.11r;ra, and the West Indies. without limitation us to number or
tonnage; the coasentience of this had been a glut of slaves in this
unhappy I ',dolly, which none could credit but those who had wit-
nessed it. Their numbers fir exceeded the wants or the means
of the inhabitants to pay for. They were forml upon
them by the slave dealers nn any terms.—• Take them at tine, two.
thr.r years' credit t—pay for them when you please, and how yrai
'dense and numbers of them had not been pant fx to the present
day. as Gentlemen present could testify. Thus had the British
nation evaded her own act—and thus by commercial finesse and
iaintense capital had the slave trade been virtually continued in
the island of Trinidad even up to the present day ; fix it might
safely be said of every African who yet remained unpaid for, that
he never would have been dragged from his native shores, had that
Act limited, asi it ought to hare done, the final supply to the actual
demand ; which might easily have been erected. by declaring the
sale of every negro slave, for an extended term of credit, illegal."
It is singular that this fact, which must obviously have
produced ronsequeuecs so disastrous both to the slaves and
their masters, should not have been noticed by any of the
writers on the subject. We blame nut those who express
their enthusiastic indignation against the oppression they
believe to be practised upon the unfortunate negroes in the
West Indies. Every man ought to raise his voice and his
hand against injustice ; but before we condemn, we ought
to he sure we have the guilty in judgment before us. If
the distress of the slaves in our colonies has been greatly
a:Nravated by the extravagant importations made during
the three months allowed by Parliament, is it fair there-
fore to condemn the colonists, who had no share whatever
in framing the measure by which these importations were
allowed? Ought not we, the people of the I nitial King-'I
don, rather to take to ourselves the moral responsibility of i
forcing on the colonists an immense supply of slaves beyond
the natural and ordittary demand ? Mr. Burnley then
proceeded to argue the validity of the titles of the slave-
holders to their property. Ile adverted to an Ordinance
promulgated on the :loth of June, lt4oo, by the late Go-
vernor Picton, declaratory, in the minutest details, of the
terms and conditions under which the planters were to hold,
treat, and employ twgro slaves for the future. To this Ordi-
mince as their indefeasible charter, he advised the colonists to
adhere. Ile then referred to the more recent proclamations
of the sth Ike. 181.5, and the 7th Nov. Isl 6, by which
the holders of crown lauds were compelled to employ a
• certain number of negroes on every allotment in propor-
tion to its him!, and by which, if the slaves were by plague or
pestilence reducAl below the requisite number, the planters
are compelled to replace them under penalty of confisca-
tion. The lien. Gentleman then directed the attention of
the Meeting to the peculiar condition in which they were
placed as residents in a t7olony in which the Crown was
allpowerful. In Trinidad there was no interference hos-
tile to the improvement of the slaves by a nicked Legisla-
tive Assembly. Tht re the British Government haul, by I
their own act and deed, open, 11 wide the !sins fur the
iatrothiet• ai of slave", when they might have 11(111 closed

sustain by the change ? Th, Ilan. Grnticu cn tlica ad-
ver hal to dn• pi csent ihhninistr.ltunt of justice aintiag the •
• staves. which, he contended, wits the best adapted to their !
capacities. As agriumitoral slaves there existed in that co.
I.)ny about 1)4,000 human befogs, distinct in colour, face,
habits, awl manners, with very little setis.• of morality- or
rel(4ion, and speaking a confused jargon of tongiica, gene-
rally rihdering the sill of an interpreter necessary when
they appeared hi a Court of Justice. 11.-retotere, the,

Lad, by thvir o'sr. exertions, er thu bounty to- their inas-

ters, acquired sums of money equal to SOL and 100/. •strr-'
ling each.

This speech is certainly deserving of serious reflection, if
not decisively convincing in every argument. At any rate
it is of great importance as evincing the dispassionate judg-
ment formed by the colonists of Trinidad on their own
situation, and the claims they conceive they possess on the
justice of his Majesty's Government. Every intelligent
well-wisher to the improvement of the negroes must be
aware of what infinite importance is the concurrence of the
I planters in the measures pursued with that design. We
shall therefore, in conclu4ion, only call their attention
to the fact, that the shave trade was not the crime
of the colonists, but of th., Mother Country, and that
slavery has in all instance:l been established with the
• consent of the Mother Country, and in many, as at
Trinidad, for example, it has been forced upon the co-
lonists, for the supposed interests of the Mother Country,
without reference to their wishes or their will. With
these considerations on our mind, we shall ho disposed to
listen with more patience to the representations of the co-
lonists, on whom it is now too hastily proposed that the
whole burthen of loss should devolve, for continuing a sys-
tem which we compelled them to continence.
