BILL ARP'S LETTER !
Ruminalions cf the Popular Sage of
Bartow
? THE
PHILOSOPHER IS REMINISCENT
Me Discusses Events of the Past in
His Usual Mappy Manner ? Tilings
He Docs Not Know.
Wanted?Iu 1881 General Henry R.
Jackson, of Savannah, delivered in
Atlanta the most notable, instructive
and eloquent address that has been
heard in Georgia since the civil war.
The subject was "The Wanderer." a
slave ship that landed on the Georgia
coast in 1S5S. Hut the whole address
was an historical recital of many political
events that led to the civil war
and of which the generation that has
grown up since were profoundly ig
norant and still are. It was delivered
by request of the Young Men's library
Association, when Henry Grady
was its chairman, and I supposed was
published in pamphlet form and could
be had on application. Hut 1 have
sought in vain to find a copy. I have a
newspaper copy, hut it has been worn
to the quick and is almost illegible. I
j wrote to Judge Pope Harrow, who is
I General Jackson's executor, and be
| can find none among the general's
! papers. Can any veteran furnish me a
I copy? I would also be pleased to obtain
a copy of Daniel Webster's
| speech at Capon Springs, which was
i suppressed by his publishers and to
which General Jackson makes alius
ion. General Jackson was a great man.
He won his military laurels in the war
with Mexico. He was assistant at
j torney general under Buchanan when
J Jeremiah Hlack was the chief, lb- was
the vigilant, determined, conscit n
tious prosecutor of those why owned
and equipped and officered the only
slave ship that ever landed tin tin
Georgia coact. He was a man of splendid
eulSure and a poet of ability and
reputation. Strange it is that this
magnificent address has not be. n
compiled in the appendix of somu
| Southern history as a land mark for
the present generation, it is sud and
I mortifying that our young and middleaged
men and our graduates fVoni
I Southern colleges know so little of our
ante-bellum history. The Northern
' people are equally ignorant of the
origin of slavery and the real causes
I that precipitated the civil war. Most
of them have a vague idea that slav
ery was born and just grew up in the
South?can.e up out of the ground
like the 17-year-ohl locusts?and was
our sin and our curse. Not one in t? :?
thousand will believe that the South
never imported a slave front Africa
but got all we had by purchase from
otir Northern brethren, i would wage:
a thousand dollars against ten that
not a man under fifty nor a school hoy
who lives North of the line knows .?i
believes that General Grant, the:
great military hero and idol, was ?
slave Owner and lived ufl" of their hire
and their service while he was fij*.* ting
up about ours. Lincoln's procl-t
mat ion of freedom came in LS<!3. but
General Grant paid no attention to ii
lie continued to use them as slaves
until January, lfitl.l. (See his bography
I by General James G -ant Wilson in
I Appleton's Encyclopedia.) General
! Grant owned these slaves in St. Louis
[ Mo., where he lived. He was a bad
manager and just before the war be
gan he moved to Galena and went <o
work for his brother in the tanyard.
j While there he caught the war fever
and got a good position under Lincoln
but had he remained in St. Louis
I would have greatly preferred one on
our side. So said Mrs. Grant a few
Vears acn to : np?'?ra>nnr mliinv t 1
Augustine.
How many of this generation North
or South know or will believe that a.late
as November. 1801. Nathaniel
Gordon, master of a New England
slave ship railed the Erie. was eon
vieted in New York rity of carrying
on the slave trade. (See Appleton.)
Just think of it and wonder. In 1801
our Northern brethren made war upon
us because we enslaved the negroes
we had bought from them, but at the
same time they kept on bringing more
from Africa and begging us to buy
them. How many know that England,
our mother country, never cmanci
pated her slaves tint 11 1843. when
twelve millions were set free in the
East Indies and one hundred millions
of dollars paid to their owners by act
of parliament? It is only within the
last half century that the importation
of slaves from Africa has generally
ceased. Up to that time every civilized
country bought them and enslaved*
them. English statesmen and clergymen
said It was better to bring them
away than to have them continue in
their barbarism and canibalism. And
It was better. I believe it was God's
providence that they should he
brought away and placed In slavery,
but the way it was done was inhuman
and brutal. The horrors of the middle
passage, as the ocean voyage was
called, is the most awful narrative I
ever read and reminds me of Dante's
"Inferno." About half the cargo survived
and the dead and dying were
tumbled into the sea. The owners said
we can afford to lose half and still
have a thousand per cent profit. Rev.
John Newton, oue of the sweetest
poets who ever wrote a hymn, the author
of "Amazing grace, how sweet
the sound, that saved a wretch like

its horrors. He became converted, but

In some form has existed ever

with servant and bondsman. There

bondage was hard, but :is a general j
rule the master l'ouud it to his intere.,1 |
to be kind to his slaves. As Bob
Toombs said in his Boston speech: j
"It is not to our interest to starve our
slaves any more than it is to starve j
: our horses and horned cattle." Shortly ,
1 after tlie little cargo that the Y\aimer
er brought were secretly scattered
around I saw some of them at work in I
a large garden id Columbus, (la., and |
was told that they were docile and '

that it was hard to teach thcnl to cat)

into better shape and made good servants

him a hundred of his birds flew 'his
way and that. "Did you over see a
