The capacity of the African race to maintain
and profit by Republican institutions is certainly
not established by the example of Hayu In
deed, we may well doubt that any race, who but
Yesterday knocked off the shackles OF Slavery,
with its necessary accompaniment of ignorance
and utter dcbasement, is fitted to set an example
of self.government Neither can we expect that
a race Who have for generations been driven to
labor by the lash can at once appreciate and ac-
cept Labor as proper and healthful condition OF
Freedom. To the slave of yesterday, as well as
the slave OF to-day, idcness and entire exemp-
ton from control seems the perfection Of happi-
ness even with scanty and precarious food. The
condition of Hayti is warning against sudden
and violent changes in the Social condition of a
people. Had the planters of that Island but
obeyed the Emancipation Act Of the French Con-
vention and at once heartily undertaken to con-
form to the new state Of things thus created, it
would have been infinitely better for all parties.
