But before cone to the second part of my to-days
exposition be- leave to state interesting incidents
from the past hint Try Of those VITO the present
pabobs Of the island who principally hold in their
hapcs THIS black business, by which they have smass-
ed milhops upon millions.
The most prominent individual among the slave
traders. is one whom We cal PAncho. Or
bis youth there is known but very little or 10th
ing: most likely be c0mueoced his bravo;
afterward he armed, with compa1ion, q vessel for
piracy. He made his fret appearance IN Havaos,
wtere be cerouDced to the Spanish Government
anotber pirate who, in Consequence OF this treason
able suggestion was seized, tried and sentenced IL
is said that this pirate, few moments before he
was executed By the gaIrote declared thai PancbO had
been his partner in the trade, aid after rbbog him OF
bill bls property had chosen the method of denunci>
ton to rid himself of him. Bot the Government either
culd not soud not fud sufficient evidence against
Pauobo and room the whole affair Was forgotten. Tns
hero tnen took to another line OF trade just respects
be- but just profitable, too his former one; he
associated himself with certain Don j. b., for the
purp, OF importing slaves. Bot asi always to
happen among people Of this KIDD destitute Of shame
ano coDsceoce tried to cheat the other whenever
poss b and very they hated each other tn the
deepest enrnity. Still tbe mutual interests prevented
them lille from dissplvIrg their partnership, aud
they remained joined for come years Millions uf
dollars were gained at the cot Of many lives of mil
lions and millions Of tears and streams Of blood But
What cared they They had honestly bought their
slaves by the way trade, they sold hem in the
way and what il to them that the African chief
tains descended upon their neighbors and killed
sands Of them order to carry of the rest Of them To
the narket7 After several years they di solved their
connection. Don j., whose speculative mind
not satisfied by doing kIpd Of business At time,
Kept number of gambling houses aud other of
dlsreputabe character, and, as money .making man.
did any KIND of business by which money could be
gained. lie had not 10 fear that the pol CO would
interfere with him. Tue oicerslived upon his money,
and shut their eyrs TO everything Pancho inter-
ested in. He married lady of pure Africsn blood,
and fraiy promoted TO nobility and to the rank
OF captain OF the Davy!
Next TO Paucho, among the slave -dsaIers ranked
Don j. NJ, OF late the chief Of Of the most
important mercantile houses in Havana When boy
of Ia years Of age be came from VIgo to Havana,
iull.booded G .ego has lived ffty-two years in
Havana being 60 yesrs " age. After having dissolved
bis partnership with Pancbo, he continued tue
ebony trade" oa his osn account but on much
lager scale. He sent, as stated before, colooy to
the Alncan cosst, and, having thrown hnseif neal
long into these speouiations he may be justly
cered as that person ~no before all the rest hiss suf
