Negro Barbarian Experience
Of the west Indies.


There IS now scarcely a telegram
that reaches US from the West Indies
that does no, tell If horrible atrocities
and %scrvilo out breaks by the black
sons Of Airica-out breaks dicnifcd
by the name Of revolutions. Yester-
day we announced Il new REBELLION in
IN jamaica, and tho fact that in one
parish alone four hundred negroes
wcro ready for revolt. The island is
in panic, the white population serious

nate,an civilization buried will deeper
under Il load of barbarism. IIuytl
presents the same sad and revolving
picture Of u moyemcutlL the direction
OF blrbariSn. On the 18th Of October
the sccrc IN the legislative chambers
was very violent. Even the negro
! President, Sdlnoye, became so uudac-
iops MS to incIto u rabble of women and
boys to attack the House of Assembly.
This they amid loud vivas FOR Saluavo,
anu crIcs Of Down with the Assembly,
hurting, at the same time, bricks, bot
tics, sticks. &c. The dwellings of ma.
ny were vigorously stoned. The
American Consul was fred at. but es-
capped unhurt."
These are the pictures of negro rule,
Of negro independence, Of negro suf-
frage. These are the pictures Of II
country governed by the blood of
Africa. Il Jam aica more than Il gen
GRAFTON has passed since the negroes
were thrown 10 the front and forced to
make an effort to mau.t in themselves
ut the Lowell Of the white man. How
well they have succeeded let the
present troubles demonstrate. They
have not Only been gong on from bad
10 worse, but civilization itself has been
! dying out even where 1t existed among
among Che whites. The blacks, instead
Of rising to the level OF the white popu-
@latlon, have gradually lowered the
white To the 6asest standard OF moral,
ity and Intelligence, until wo have the
picture Of a magnificent West India
Island sinkingto the fearful bHrbarism
! OF Ccntrli Africa. If Jamaica presents
tins one light, IIdytI and S.. Domingo
presents it in still holder relief Hers
we haye the full focus OF negro, efforts
at civilization. FIRST Il War against the
whites, then q war between the blacks
and m~ulattoes, then what may be de-

which color has warred against color IN
all the endless changes, forming mag
