Anti-slavery bugle. [volume] (New-Lisbon, Ohio) 1845-1861, 1858-08-14
EMIGRATION ENTERPRISES.

Within q few months past, several schemes to
establish colonies at points outside this country
hay We come to light. First. a plan is in progress
for the establishment of a settlement of colored
people in Hayti. Mr.. Holly, a preacher at New
Haven, who has visited that island, is its jealous
advocate. The Hayden government is expected
to countenance the scheme, as more laborers are
needed upon the soil; and it is said that several
hundred persons are ready to start as soon as
proper arrangements can be made. The social
position of the Negro race in this country, it is
considered, cannot be materially improved for a
great space of time. They aspire to a separate
and this can be effected only by colonizing some
unoccupied region, or associating themselves with
some negro power already created.
Another scheme has been preached to establish q
settlement somewhere in Central America. The
projectors are a Mr.. Guion. a druggist in Brook
lyn, and a partner, recently from California.
Though he is a native of st. Domingo. Mr.. Guion
cherishes no romantic ideas in regard to establish
ing q colony of colored persons. but considering
that philanthropy is more costly than profitable,
embarks in his enterprise avowedly for the pur-
pose of achieving a lucrative land speculation,
and is Just as ready to sell farms to Germans and
Americans, as to persons of his own race and
color.
There is also on Equitable Emigration Associ'
alton" in existence, which is said to plate
the occupation Of some island in the Pacific
Ocean" there to commence anew the experiment OF
Of social democracy, and to establish new institu

THE ANTI-SLAVERY BUGLE

tions more adapted to the necessities Of human
nature and The rights Of tile individual" The
principles ayowed are Of the most liberal stamp.
Individual sovereignty is placed at the foundation.
The land occupied 10y each person is to be innline'
able, according to tho theory Of the Mosaic law,
which prohibited thc perpetual transfer OF landed
titles. The right of every individual to education
is explicitly off rmed. The circulating medium is
to be based on labor and equivalents; and the
products Of industry are to be exchanged on the
same principle. The Fourier scheme of joint
stock is repudiated, and instead, it is stipulated
that all property shall be. individual. The mar.
riage relation may be ass umed or abandoned, as
the parties choose. The expense Of emigration
will! be met by issues of stock. the shares of
which are fifty dollars each. Each share entities
its holder to a passage and IL part ownership of
the vessel in which the proposed emigration is to
be made. The first expedition will he undertaken
in October, and will proceed directly to the Pa.
clfic, and cruise from island to island till one shall
be found suitable for the purposes of the associa-
ton. 1t is intended to obtain mechanics, masters
of the principa trades, TO the pioneer
and succeeding expeditions. An organization
will then be created to forward emigrnnts TO the
new settlements as cheaply and eSpedi.iously as
possible. One condition expressly stipulates that
all settlements shall he outside of the territory of
the United States, whether on the continent or
otherwise.
All these schemes are about equally feasible,
and we advise any who have not yet cut their eye
teeth, and wish them to cut quick, to join one of
the oxpeditions--it makes little difference
which,
