This is Que example out Of many, only a
little less successful than the Francois. One
is sorely tempted to ask, where have English
capitalists and promoters been these half-dozen
years that they were ignorant of these splendid
successes? Are the West Indies fallen SO out
of mind in these post protection days in this
busy Australian, Indian, North American, Eu-
ropean and even South American epocha
Are they so discredited-morally. commercial
ly aud financially, that a revival of their old
glories was thought impossible to their effete
State Let it henceforth be known, if it is not,
that they have soils as fertile as any to be
found in any part of the world, that they can
produce every tropical staple, that they have a
potentiality ofopulence equal to any country and
superior to most, and that though constitutional
ly and by African tradition less inclined, general
ly speaking, to steady continuous labor than
their brethren in Europe, cur laboring class is
capable of putting out a valuable amount of
work when their instincts and reasoning are
appealed to in a judicious manner. This is
proved by numerous instances, as among re-
cent ones by Mr.. Pearce's remarks on the Ja-
maica negroes at work on the Costa RIGA rail-

THE ''AVIS."
CHRTSTIANSTED, ST. CROIX,
WEDNESDAY,, 9TH MAY 1874

Since the Report of the Commissioners ap-
pointed in 1872 to enquire into the Central
Factory System by the Government of the
British Confederated Leeward Islands, we have
read no more interesting, and instructive ac-
count of the progress of the industry than the
one contained in the letter we publish below
from the Administrator of the Government of
St. Lucia to the Grown Agents for the British
Col mes, together with the leader on this sub
ject by the Trinidad Chronicle Of 14th last
month, The editor of that highly valuable
paper has advocated the introduction of the
Factory System most ably and z%ealously ever
since his becoming the editor of the Chronicle;
but the work in Trinidad has been, as here
and elsewhere, "up-hill" all the while. Let
US hope, that both there and here we shall
finally succeed, by means of these factories, to
show the superiority of the "time-honored cane
over that contemplate root'' which bids fair
to get the better of it in the present unequal
struggle.

important to show [not new thing
we grant, that the produce Of the
west can find transportation to Euro

from our lake ports. We do not see
why this cannot be put in practice on
grand scale at an immense saving to
the present method of transportation.
We do not pretend to be conversant
with the practicability and saving,
that might be made by building up
such line of transportation, but we
