TESTIMONIAL OF THE BRITISH GOVERNOR OF
JAMAICA.

The governor in his address the opening Of the pro-
vncsl legislature recommends the transportation Of h,
fugitive slaves from southern States who have taken
refuge in Canada 10 the island Of Jamac for the follow
ing reasons:
"The people who may Il matters be properly represented
them be induced hiher from America pre-
cisey the sort Of industrial population require besides
they admirably adapted the climate Of this island
Bringing with them amount Of civilization Ear higher than
that Of the generality Of the laborng population OF th.
island, and acquainted they TO much greater extent
with agriculture and mechanical Of the greatest
dederata In Jamacsthe black and coorcd people of
lea only admirably calculated develop the nnu
merabe Of the island greater extent
the natives present capable OF, but they WILL
ainty brought here be the improving ma
peasantry by continually presenting people initiative
examples worthy for them to follow"
Thus appears by his excellencys public acknowledge
ment that the American "chaes would abrug with them
Of civilization far higher than that or the gen
eraty of the lsboring population Of this isand that
they much further advanced in knowledge OF agr
culture and mechanics, and in Short every way superior
the blacks Of Jamaica who enjoyed the blessings
emancipation for whole generation His escellency add
that the American slaves awil certainty IL brought
here be the means Of improving native poasanry by
continually presenting people initiative examples
for them TO follow"
We earnestly commend this testimony Of his ereellency
to the attention Of abolition friends. Perhaps Il may
mitigate their intense sympathes for he
Of Africa and in reconcile them to the de-
basng effects Of slavery the habits and character Of
their proteges generation Of free blacks has grown in
Jamaica since their emancipation and yet II is desirable
il seems to import Of be chaties TO teach them the
cultivation Of the land the mechanic arts and to set them
examples Of industry and morality.
