Till?? NEGRO IN I.UIICUIA.
lu a letter rocoivod by a German clergyman re
siding Ia oiio of tho Wostorn States, tho following
account is given of tho condition of tho negroes in
tiiboria. Tho writor ia n eoa captain, who has
visited Brazil, tho West Indios and Africa, aud has
observed the condition of the blacks in these vari
ous countries. Ilia atatomouta aro ontitlod, thoro
foro, to coiiaidoration. Ho aays :
The colony of Liboria waa founded in tho year
1823, on tho'eoaatof Upper Ouinea, in Africa, by
the Colonization Society of the United States of
America. It waa designed to assist colored pooplo
in immigrating to Africa, and to aid thom ia Und
ing nu navlam in that country. By buying land
from chiefs of neighboring tribes, tho colony has
bceu extended to tho limits of threo hundred
square sea milca. Tho occupation assigned by
nature to tho inhabitant? of Liberia ia agriculture.
Tho aoil oxeoodingly rich, anti ae fertile as nny soil
on the snrfaco of tho earth, reward- nil labor.'cvon
tho most negligent and superficial. Nevertheless,
the free colonista, having sprung from tbo negro
race, overcomes his natural mdolencc and laziness
no farther than to cultivato as much land aa ia re
quired for keeping him from starvation. In the
viciuity of Monrovia, the capital and seat of gov
ernment, namod in houor of President Monroe,
there aro to bo seen aomo thousand acres with
plantations of coffco and augar. yielding the rich
est possible crops, but thoy belong to lntolligcnt
and ambitious mulnttoes.
Farther in tho interior of tho countiy there ia no
trace of any plantation or culture, although it is
-vidont that the richost produce ia to be lind for a
small outlay of labor. Tho common negro haa no
impnlao in* himaelf to do nnything moro than to
gain in an oaay manner what ia absolutely uocos
sary for bia subsistence, which beean easily obtain
in ? country on which natara hsB bestowed so very
?reat a fertility, producing nil the necessaries of
fe in abundance. The luziucss, which is inaopa
rablo from the disposition of the uogro, will be the
rock on which tho Reptibbc of Liberia will bo
wrecked. A negro does not w?bIi for anything but
sufficient food and scanty raiment for himaelt and
bis ?amily. and ho works iio moro thuu the greatest
material necessity forces bim to work. The tillage
of tho earth is much too laborious for bim; ovon
the breeding of cattle ?b too troublcaomc for him.
The greater part of the meat consumed in Liboria
must be imported. A small trade with little things
is tho onlybuaincaa that ho is inclined todo. An
a m?chame, ho loavca his work so roughly and bo
badly done, or rather undono, as to satisfy no one
but himself. Evorvthing of any usefulness that ia
to bo found in tbo four towns of Liberia ia import
ed. Tho Republic, with its present limita, baa
boen in oxistonco tor about forty years past, and yet
there is only ono ningle road, which has the length
of five bos* miles and the breadth of the track of
one wagon. That road was built under the supcr
intcndcucc of the first American agent and with
American money; it runs from Monrovia toward
the interior of the country. Sinco tho time that
Liberia baa bad its own government nothing at all
baa boen done to promoto communication.
Tho largo natural forests in tho immediate
neighborhood aro the abode of innumorablo wild
beasts, which molest the colonists incessantly;
these forosts aro also tho sourco of pernicious ex
halations and deadly miasmata, which kill half of
the inhabitants. It is for tho interest of the com
monwealth, as well as for that of every inhabitant,
to cut down theso forosts, in order to sell the pre
cious wood of the largo treos, to purify the air,
and to gain several millions of acres of tho richest
virginalsoiL The inhabitants, however, aro satis
fied with taking, at a timo, no moro wood than is
necessary for building a small farm bouse; they
Buffet- themselves to be attacked by the wild beasts
of the forests, and they continue to breathe the
air tilled with a poisoning iniasnii, wbiob causes
fatal diseases among them, without making any
attempt to bo relieved of thoso plagues. Hence
we must conclude that negroes, by nature, have an
aversion to tilling the earth, and that their dispo
sitions to work industriously is, by nature, no
greater than it was iu thoir condition of bodily
bondage. As. in this condition, only forco and tho
fear or punishment could move thom to work, so
in Liberia, absolute nocoBsity aud tho fear of star
vation causes thom to work, becaiiBO they bave
hero no master who provides thom with food and
raiment. It is evident, therefore-tho xirobabibty
is very small indood-that negroes ever will cease
to bo slaves of absoluto noccsaity, and bocomo
dUigont and intelligent husbandmen. It is very
improbable that their race can uovcr exist by it
self, and they cannot mix with white men in the
manner in which difforont races of white mon have
been mixed together.
Tho mulattoes in Liberia form a separate caato,
higher than common negroes, a caato similar to
the rank of uobUity in Europe, and thoy would
have asonad all power long ago if thoy had not
boen watched and kept down by -tho American
Colonization Society. As aoon as this prossnro is
takon off, tho government will fall into the banda
Of the mulattoes, because proporty and intelli
gence always rule over indigence aud stupidity.
The republican government will then como to an
end, and the mulattoes will make themselves the
lords of the land and tho despots ovor tbo oooplo;
thoy will bo tyrants, much worso than white ?lavc
holdora over wero. In reality, auch ia alrendy tho
condition of tho pooplo of Liberia. The negroes
who aro called Crowmon, nativos of Africa, who
havo boon subdued, a mud and mcok raco, willing
ly bend undor the yoke of bodily bondage. On tho
plantations of sugar and coffee, mentioned above,
in tho housos of rich mulattoes and in those of
Christian negroes, the whip ?b used upon thoir ser
vants, who aro Crowmen, aa much aa it was ovor
used upon the slaves in Amorica and in the West
Indies.
Thoro aro no worse masters than mulattoes.
Although the offspring of tho white and black
races, thoy hato both racos invet *ratoly, and they
vent that hate wbenevor they can. Besides, mu
lattoes aro ruled by an indomitable love of monoy,
and their loosonoss of principio and their laxity of
moral a lot thom indifferently use all means to
achievo thoir purpose. At present thoy strive after
richoa by cultivating their [plantations, but un
doubtedly they will profor the greater and easier
profit of trading in slaves a- soon as thoy have the
opportunity of so doing. The Christian negroes in
Liboria will not join thom in that trado, but thoy
will do nothing to bindor it. Tho Christian ne
groes in Liberia, aa well as negroes everywhere
else, aro much too indolent and too lazy to do any
thing which thoy aro 'not compelled to do, and as
long as thoy do not suffer from want materially, it
is all tho same wbothor Liberia bo a republic", an
absolute monarchy, or a slave State, provided that
thoy nood not work.
The negroes in Liboria walk upon tho stroot
silent and with slow stops; those who are wealthy
stride about, wearing nigh white cravats, in the
fashion of Puritanic preachers; those who are
poor are dressed less uniformly, but thoy keep
thoir faces contracted-in the same solemn and
stern wrinkleB. They salute ono anothor in a for
mal, stiff manner. When two mon happen to meet
on tho street, who wish to speak to oaoh other,
they do so wita affected manners, with a set speech
and in a low voice, as if they wero afraid of dis
turbing the devotions of a congregation in church.
Ho who kilowa tho natural choorfulncaa and morri
nesa of negroes, which cannot be exhausted and ia
novor extirpatod. which requires only tho least im
pulse to break forth into loud and joyful mirth;
thoir fondness for talking and their great ploaanro
in singing-qualities which cannot bo suppress oil
oven by the severest treatment, qualities which
can be turned to virtuos and blessings for' them by
tho grace of the Goapol-must bo groatly astonish
ed at the apparent contrast which he finds in the
deportment of tho inhabitants of Monrovia.
This deportment ia the consequonco of tho ro
ligious restraint which sectarians and missionaries
.of soots exert upon tho inhabitants of Liboria.
With blind zoal, mistaking Pharisooiam for Chris
tianity, they have ondeavorod, foroibly and unnat
urally, to ohango tho harmless disposition of tho
people. They have changed thoir oharacter in ap
poaranco-whether thoy have changed thoir nature,
and if so, whether for good or for ovil, will bo dis
.covorod by futuro ovouta. Tho olorgymon. thoso
-lent by American Missionary ?Societies ana sects,
as well as thone who are natives, havo great au
thority over tho minds of the negroea in Liboria.
But this authority Booms to be founded on fear
and not on love. All authority which ia not mixed
with love tends eventually to Cvib If thoae who
founded Liberia intended to have this ropublio as
a stronghold for their religions dootxinea, and to
this end endeavored to propagate and establish
thoso doctrines by the aid of missionaries, nothing
?can be said against the policy which has been fol
lowed in Liberia. The email number of crimes
which are committed in Liberia, that io, as far as
thoy aro known, shows that they have aucco?3do? in
oupprossing the commission of ovil doods by the
fear of punishment. Bat it doe- not tboneo follow
that the hearta of the negroea in Liberia havo been
oewmtlally changed, and that they do not sin fre
quently nginst the first four oommandmonha.
This ofloot has been brought about in liberia by
t
doing violon?e to tho disposition of tlio nogroce:
for tlioir ohild-liko disposition has hoon imuprossou
and destroyed by tho prohibition of tlio most
innocont eii1_.vn.ont unelor Bovoro penalties, and
in tliis way Choy havo boon mislod by hypocrisy.
Bcsidos, frionaly intercourse among thom lias
boon destroyed by sectarianism, whieh is in Li
boria ob common as it is in the United States of
America. Intoloranco of scotarians hu-, brought
it to pass that difToront soots opposo ono auotl-cr
in mich a manaor as to cause, every moinhor of one
sect to shun all communication with tho membors
of any other sect. It is evident that this oxclu
sivonoss of religiouB scots must materially injure
the prosperity of tho body politic of tho common
wealth.
Tho Colony of Liberia, founded and formoel with
great expectations in rogarel to civilisation, bcuiuh
to bo moving in tho opposite direction, although
thiB courao may not nppcar oponlv boforo a hair a
century. NogroeB aro neither alAo nor capahlo of
establishing or maintaining a civilized common
wealth, whntovcr form or name it may have. Tho
negroes of Liberia aro and will romani tho aamo ah
other, of thoir race. They can bo compelled hy
forco to imitate and adopt tho outward form of tho
government of another country : but, as soon aa
that forco coascB to bo exerted, tuoy fall back iui
modiateily into Ml- stato of barbarity which is
natural to thom. Tho colored peoplo in Liberia
aro proparing the way for whito people ; they will
loavo tho Bconc as Boon as they havo played their
part. As the Indians in America have disappeared
wherever whito mon havo como, bo the nogrooa in
Airica will disappear when whito mon on tor into
Africa, however distant from the present elny that
timo may bo.
