Daily Primary or National.
Again, on another point:

So, sir, when tried both by the standard of
progress in schools and in churches, the expert
ment of emancipation in the West Indies does
not seem to be SO disastrous as the Senator
would suppose. A letter from the Hon. b. T.
Young, written to the same gentleman in an
sv CT to the same letter, dated January l3, 1858,
says:
The religious condition of the people gen
orally has greatly improved since the abol-
ton of Slavery and, undoubtedly, emancipa-
ton has removed many of the obstacles that
existed during Slavery, and stood in the path
way of the slave in improving his religious
condition"
In regard to education, he says:
Greatly improved, but by no means to the
extent desired. Popular feeling is now press
ing the enlargement of education to all class
es, and the Legislature of Barbados is quite
willing to carry it out to the extent desired
by increasing the annual grant towards edu
cation"
In respect to crime, he says:
81 do not think there is more crime now
than in the days of Slavery; because the
owner, during Slavery, had the power to pun
ish all crime short OF capital offence. Now,
all crime is punished by the courts, and thus
a wide publicity is given to it."
In answer to the question, Are the estates,
generally speaking, better cultivated under free
labor than they were under slave?" he says:
F" In Barbados, the estates are, generally
speaking, better cultivated with free labor than
they were under the slave labor
81 believe it is generally admitted that the
cost of production is generally less under a
free-labor system.
The voice of one and all pronounces it to be
blessing. There can be no ques-
ton that emancipation has worked most bene-
hcially for the emancipated classes.
The condition of the poor whites in Bar
bados is lamentably deteriorated, but from
causes quite apart and distinct from emanci-
patton"
Now, sir, desire to call the attention of the
Senate to the island of Jamaica, in which it is
said, believe, that the most disastrous conse-
quences have ensued from this experiment of
emancipation. The Governor, in writing from
Jamaica, says:
The returns from the several jails continue
to testify to the comfortable condition and
peaceful disposition of the lower orders"
Instead of Jamaica being about to be aban-
doned as hopelessly given over to barbarism,
the Governor says:
"Such revival is distinctly traceable in
these returns the comparison for the last
four years standing as under, after correc-
ton OF an error into which | was last year
betrayed by the total omission from the Gus
tom-house tables, which were very carelessly
prepared by the then Comptroller of Naviga
ton Laws, OF the value of British goods i'm
ported:

Again he says:
Last year l could sum up nv report with
no greater amount of encouragement than an
assurance that the position of the colony had
grown no worse, and that its prospects were
; by no means desperate this year, am fairly
entitled to found on the facts and figures
have passed In review much more sanguine
differences; and though difficulties and draw
backs still remain to be encountered. I feel
far more confident of the ultimate restoration
of prosperity than / ever did before
So, sir, even in Jamaica, affairs are not quite
SO hopeless as the Senator from Louisiana sup
poses; and l hope that he will come to the
conclusion that the experiment of emancipation
IN those British West India islands has not
been so utter failure as he had been led to
Imagine. The people, instead of working upon
the plantations, have become landowners, and

peHuence, JlaJ FRANCE EXTENDED 10 us IN our
great revolutionary struggle. l thank the hon.
orable Senator for the manliness and the can.
dor with which he strips off the paltry DISCUSSES
with which this poor bill undertakes to dress
up this scheme, and tells you what we look at.
1t is Cuba it is inevitable and we will declare
to the Cubans, ego on, declare yourselves in
dependent; if you can achieve your independ-
ence, we will admit you into the Confederacv !:
and if you cannot, we will help YOU" That is
the meaning of it. In one of the dispatches of
one of our Secretaries, Marcy or Buchanan, or
some of that latter-day class of politicians they
undertake to say that the United States will
never seize Cuba while in possession of Spain.
and will never allow anybody else to have the
island. They admit, and the whole argument
is based on the assumption, that Spain is too
weak to hold on to Cuba. They are willing
that she shall have it, if she could hold it: but
she cannot, and we will not let her call upon
anybody else to help her; and when the ripe
apple falls, we will take it. That is. 1.-THE mo.
rality of the whole thing.
Now, sir, let me characterize the measure as
it presents itself to my mind. 1t is a gigantic
scheme OF national rapine. 1t looks to nothing
else. This BILL if it has any effect, can only
have the effect to debauch and corrupt the
public mind and the public morals. 1t is to
whet that keen appetite which, in years past,
has been, in violation of our laws and our
treaty obligations, fitting out expeditions to go
and seize upon Cuba. 1t is a great, gigantic
appeal to our national avarice, to our lust Of
power, of conquest, of aggression, by all means
and by every means to seize upon Cuba. If
we do not in the letter cOuntenance these
things in its spirit, and in its ultimate effect, it
has that meaning, and nothing else. The hon
orable Senator from Louisiana so treats it, and
so treat it. 1t is an attempt to corrupt the
public morals to call upon all that is base and
selfish, and avaricious and grasping, in our
national character, and urging them to great
TRADE against our ancient ally, which alone Of
the nations of Europe, from the first day of our
national existence to the present time, has pre-

NONERNMENT HOUSE, BARBADOS.
January 9, 1858.
My DEAR SIR: willingly comply with your
request that | should communicate to YOU
the opinions which | have formed as to the
results of the abolition of Slavery in the Brit
ish West Indies, as well in their bearing on
the civilization of the emancipated classes, as
on the general prosperity of the colonies.
: do this the more readily, because being thor
oughy persuaded that most erroneous opin-
ions on this important subject prevail general
ly, both in Europe and America, think that
every possible assistance should be given to
those who take the trouble to inquire into the
actual condition of these colonies
The errors to which shall more especially
advert are, first, the assertion that slave labor
is cheaper than free. Secondly, the charge
of habitual Incidence advanced against the
creoles of African descent, which has led. it
is alleged, to the abandonment of the sugar
estates and the consequent ruin of the propri-
etorS
''On the first point, namely, the comparative
cost of free and slave labor, / believe that lit
tie if amy difference of opinion evails among
the proprietors of this island. i is, however.
much to be regretted that the West Indian
planters have more than once, since the pe-
riod Of emancipation, made formal complaints
to the Imperial Parliament, founded on their
inability to compete in the production OF
sugar by free labor with the slavs labor of for
eign countries.
"The object Of the compliments doubtless
was to obtain continuance of the protective
duties then levied upon foreign sugars. can,
however, state with confidence, that many who
at one time held the Oh inion that the increased

RETRENCHMENT AND REFoRM.-Ever since
we can remember-indeed, it began before we
can remember the Democratic party have
been retrenching and reforming, until they
have retrenched the annual expenses of the
Government from Sl3,O00,O00 under John
Quincy Adams, to nearly $lOO,oOO,OOO under
Buchanan, and still they are retrenching and
reformingl Shall we never have enough of
these retrenchments and reforms of the De-
mocracy? They remind us of the topper who
said, every time he tried to taper of, he some
how or other always got the butt end foremost
and tapered on Richmond Wkig.
