Professor Jaeger records, in his memoir, an
equally favorable opinion of him. His admin
istrative talents were early displayed. He es-
laKKsboddiertiiline in the army, formed* regular
high
and six assistant teachers, and to enoonn^je
agriculture he appointed in each rural district
sa officer whom business it was to see that no
landholder neglected the cultivation of hip soil.
He also entered into diplomatic and commercial
nations with France, England, Prussia, the
United States. Sand the Hanseatic towns in Ger
und Freneh-English, North American,
nnan mercantile hoosos began to flourish.
Oar consul and commercial agent at the time

Rhode Island.
But in spite of the ability of President Boyer
and the earnestness and wisdom of his adminis
trative seta, the negro population did not ad
vance in intelligence or increase in wealth as a
consequence of industrious habits. The cancer
continually gnawing at Boyer's heart was the
neglect of agriculture, which he recognized as
the true wealth of the people and country, and
which neglect^ he believed to be consequent on
the emancipation of the slaves. On the occasion
ef his presentation to Boyer, Professor Jaeger
relates that he asked the President if he did not
intend soon to send consuls or diplomatic agents
to the various seaports and governments of
Europe? He answered that he would do so os
soon as his countrymen were able to read and
write.
“I must confess to you,” he said, seeing the
Professor’s astonished look, “that had not the
foolish, fanatical National Convention of Paris,
in 1791, proclaimed the emancipation of our
slaves, all'the people here would have been a
thousand times happier than they now are.”
“If this had been the case,” replied the Pro
fessor, “your Excellency would not now have
been President of Hayti.”
“Well,” ho rejoined, “I would have been a
happier and more contented farmer on the sugar
plantation inherited from my father, and could
exclaimed with Horace,
“Bestirs file, qui procul nogotiis
Patema rura boboa execert sms.’’
(Happy the man, who, far from public business,
cultivates his. inherited estate with his own team.”
The negroes of Hayti had not improved from
the day of their emancipation. On finding them-
te> stives free and independent they had concluded,
something after the manner of our freedmen,
that liberty consisted in doing nothing but eat-
mg and drinking. And why should the negro
^this favored country labor ? He finds every
where such food as sweet batatas, bananas, and
manioc in abundance, with a variety of fishes
from the neighboring shores, and crabs in all
the low grounds. His house, built in less than
a day, xs constructed of four posts driven into
the ground, covered on the top and sides with

~ *“ .knowing that the welfare of
on the condition of its agri-
lerce, endeavored in every
pnaatilc way to encourage and enforce these
useful arts, but his measures entirely failed.
He had early appointed in each district rural
officers, whose business it was to enforce the
cultivation of the soil, but these officers receiv
ing good salaries, which enabled them to live
more luxuriously than before, adding such deli
cacies as codfish and mackerel to their nasal
food at lamina* and batatas, and indulging in
‘taffia” (bad ram), neglected their own land,
aad cared not for whether or no their subordi
nate countrymen tilled theirs. Consequently,
they made neither verbal nor written reports
in regard to rural affairs. Thus the anxious de-
sfaea of Boyer to improve the condition of the
paaute, by increa—ff, through —ana of a gen
eral cultivation of the soil, the products and
ax—tetiona, n—Itediaa faOHhrrBoyac'a first
The President also though* to improve agri-
culturo by eidtiiw the ambition of the negro.
For this purpose be established an annual rural
festival in the month of Hay at Port-au-Prince,
where all those cultivators who had been known
in thair district as the most industrious planters,
ootton. or other article of commerce,
were assembled. On the day of the festival the
President, standing upon a platform in the
square before the government place, surrounded
by the high civil and military functionaries of
the republic, addressed the people on the great
of agricultural improvements, men-
different articles which were at the
neglected and those who were in most
He praised publicly the cultivators
themselves by the improve
ment of their plantations, called one after an
other on the platform, and crowned them with
a wreath of flowers. After they had each re
ceived a civic crown they marched, to the sound
at music and amid the hurrahs of the people,
followed by the President end suite, to the gov
ernment palace, where they dined with the Pres
ident and other high officiate. This ritral festival
celebrated but three times, for the ceremony
of the civic crowns was made ridiculous by the
negroes, who snatched the wreaths from the
heads of the possessors, throwing them into the
air Dora one to another. Thus Boyer found that
he could not aronse the ambition of the negroes
any more than ha could awaken them to their
interests.
He next tHed to inculcate industrious habits
by furnishing them an example of the prosperity
and sneocesa of industrious persons of their own
race. He had great -confidence in the industry
of the North American free negroes, and sent
the director of his high school, a mulatto named
Granville, to New York and Pennsylvania with
orders to engage male and female colored per
sons to emigrate to Hayti, with his (Boyer’s)
promise of a grant and gntutious land. Gran
ville arrived in Port-au-Prince with several
hundred colored people, each family was given
a plantation; but after haring lived there for
some months, they surpassed m laziness and li
centiousness, the indigenous negro. The third
essay of Boyer subsequently proved a failure.
In lt}28 the celebrated Fanny Wright made her
appearance in Hayti in order to repeat the last
experiment of Boyej with plantation negroes
from New Orleans as a substitute for the free
negroes of New York. Professor Jaeger de
scribes her appearance on landing at Port-an-
Princc as “a very tall lady who walked very
fast,” and who “was elegantly dressed in Euro
pean style, with a large protruding bonnet in the
form of an inverted coal-scuttle, at that time
fashionable, on her head, overshadowing her
whole body.” . She was fallowed by twelve ne
gro slaves when she had bought at New Orleans
and whom she set free in Hayti, purchasing for
each some land on the island. Subsequently
Professor Jaeger met Hiss. Wright at the palace.
I was delighted,” ho says, “ to make the ac
quaintance of so distinguished a lady, who was not
rally handsome, bnt amiable and highly accom
plished. Her general information threw a lus
tre about her conversation which adorned her
with new charms. But when she began to
monnther hobby, explaining her too radical
principles, in which she advocated the universal
reform of mankind by abolishing slavery, sov
ereigns, standing armies, lawyers, clergymen,
marriages, and every religions creed, by estab
lishing Socialism and free-love, dividing all
wealth and property in equal parts—the words
“si tacuiases, melius fecisses" (if you had been
silent yon would have done better) lay upon my
tongne. When at dinner some one proposed a
toast in honor of that enthusiastic philanthrop
ist, Wilberforee, sho said: “If you were ac
quainted with that illiterate, superstitious old
man, so stupid that he even believes in the
Bible, you would not entertain for him the
P continues the narative,
“in spite of her extravagant ideas, was a well-
educated, talented, kind-hearted lady, of meat
intelligence. When she left Hayti she did not
return to England, but went to tho United
States and settled with her fortune in New Har
mony, Ind. She there married a Dr. Davis-
mond, and died a few yean ago, leaving, it is
to be hoped, for a better land, a world which
she dispaired of reforming. Her freedmen de
generated in the same manner as those imported
»y Granville, thus famishing a new proof that
tho uneducated negro is not fit to be free.”
President Boyer, as a last resort, endeavored
to eduoate the negroes into e life of labor. He
gaged Professor Jaeger to deliver a course of
popular lectures on .agriculture, m the hope of
getting the people interested. The lectures
were eight in number, aud were subsequently
published by order of Boyer, under the title of
•‘■Lectureji »ar ehintoire XatureUc de Haiti ap-
plieae au Vcconamie rurale.” But the audiences
which attended were composed exclusively of
foreign consuls and merchants, and the govern
ment officiate; the planters and negro laborers,
for whom they were intended, remained away,
although the lectures w6r£ .free to alL
The consequence of neglecting the cultivation
of the aoil was the small exports of produce.—
Tho same district, which, under the old slave
system of regulated labor, had produced so
largely, that to the value of over $100,000,000
was exported annually; exported under tho new
system of free labor, only $5,000,000. This
brought through the Custom-house such an in
significant revenue that it did not suffice to sup
port the large number of civil functionaries and
a standing army of 45,000 idlers. Bag money
was, therefore, created, bnt was the min of the
President and his administration, for the miser
able paper currency in a short time lost its rep
utation, and became from day to day more de
preciated until a premium of from one hundred
to four hundred per centum was paid for gold
and silver. The government was now bank
rupt, and the people, ruined and exasperated,
roee in revolt. A number of high and low ad
ministrative officials were slain by the people,
and the unfortunate President Boyer only
managed to escape to Jamaica, where he died
in 1842. . ~
After Boyer’s expulsion, a negro named Son-
louqne was elected President. After a short
time he imitated Dessalines and Christoph, by
creating himself Emperor of Hayti, under the
name of Faustns L This bombastic negro em
peror was soon expelled by the negro General
Geffrard, who re-established the republic, and
ruled it for many years, but not long enough to
teach the negroes industrious habits. In 1S65-G
Geffrard was in his turn upset, and expelled by
the negro Salnave, who is still fighting for the
supremacy against a number of negro chieftains
of the army of the republic. Thus there ha.--
been, since the commencement of this century
and tile independence of Hayti, seven rulers of
that country, including one king, two emperors,
nn/l four Presidents, none of whom have been
able to restore the country to the prosperity it
enjoyed under tho old slave system.
Is the South, now that all compulsory means
are being withdrawn that wouldmake the negroes

of short breeches made of bed-ticking, and that ; the control of the white people? It is against

is considered the r,e pin* ultra of human felici- the South will naturally decrease untti a new
ty. “I have met,” says our author, “many laboring class can be introduced. Shall the
bloody contest of Hayti be repeated in the South?
The Radicals should remember that it is the
whites who are twice as numerous there, instead
of the blacks, as in Hayti; and that the con.se-
qence of a conflict, which may be precipitated
by foolish end fanatical interference with the
natural relations of capital and labor, will be
the extermination of the weak negro rather than
the strong white race. The lesson of Hayti has
an important moral for us at this time, and we
commend its study to our legislators.
Now, that the disgusting accounts of the habits
mid tendencies^! the negro race in the Southern
in regard to their Yoodottism and* other* superb
stitions—it may be interesting to read Professor
Jaeger's account of his experience among the
snake-worshippers of Hayti, and his general ob
servations on the character of the degenerated
people. He says:
I was told while in Hayti that all the blade
people of the Island who live in the mountains
are idolaters and snake-worshippers. I did not
believe it at the time, but was subsequently
'convinced through being an eye-witness of their
superstitious rites. Riding one afternoon in
the mountains towards Gonave, I entirely lost
my way, and was compelled after sundown to
get off my horse to avoid precipices, from the
danger of which I was often saved by the light
of the flying lightning beetles (Hater eujuja)
which sported m the air and illuminated the
ground over which I moved. After wandering
till midnight, my horse and I, exhausted from
fatigue and hunger, I heard the beating of a
drum, in reality a more pleasant sound at that
moment than an air from Mozart, for it revealed
the near existence of a habitation where the
negroes were enjoying a frolic. Gnided by the
discordant sound, I pushed forward, and soon
saw before me, at a short distance, a large open
square surrounded by large trees. At one end
of the square was a blazing brushwood fire,
and at the other was a large quadrangular
box, around which a number of half-naked
male and female negroes were dancing to the
beating of a drum. When they stopped from
time to time, a big snake, directed by a negro
priest, stretched its bead and long neck out of
the box, and immediately some of the worship
pers bowed, whilst others bowed and also crossed
themselves. I was now in a great dilemma and
did not know what to do, for I was aware that
these idolaters disliked being known as such. I
therefore retired a few steps behind the trees,
and when the noise of the dram again ceased, I
commenced to speak in a loud voice to my horse
in order to attract their attention, and it the
same time advanced towards the middle of the
square in such e course that the box containing
the snake was behind me. The negroes covered
and removed it the moment I was observed.
Several men and women now approached me
with an air of impudence,, calling me a “white
man,” which epithet is there considered an in
sult. I used very freely in addressing them
the title “compere” and “oommere,” which are
sacred words among the people, and render one
inviolable, and asked every one who came np to
me concerning the health of himself, his father,
mother, wife, brother, sister, uncle, aunt,
cousin, niece, and all other relations. I was
then received as a very welcome “compere”
(godfather,) and after I had told them my diffi
culties I was furnished with a whole regime of
bananas, with guinea grass and Indian com for
my horse, and a bed of dry banana leaves for a
coach. Tiros did those idolitors show themselves
kind Samaritans, because I did not meddle with
their religions creed. Had I doifo so, they would
perhaps, have robbed me, stealing being an

had a high opinion of the negroes of the Haytien
republic until he visited the island and his kind
ness was grossly abused by them. I cannot omit
anecdote showing the negro’s propensity for
stealing: The 1st of January is celebrated in
Hayti with great solemnity as the anniversary
of their independence and the establishment of
the Haytien Republic. On the occasion of the
celebration in the year 1828, a most magnifi
cent dinneT was given by President Boyer at
the national palace, to which only the dignita
ries of tho republic and foreign consuls and
merchants were invited. The president re
ceived his gnests in the grounds behind the pal
ace, under a shady bread-fruit tree, and accom-
ianied them at six o’clock to the spacious dining
all. Whilst on abundance of well-prepared
dishes end a variety of exquisite wines made
banquet irreproachable, I was surprised to find
that we wore furnished with iron spoons, with
which to eat our soup. The cause was explained
to me by a foreign consul, who said that at the
celebration of the previous year all the silver
spoons were stolen, partly by some officers of
the President's body-guard, partly by the wait
ers and other domestics, and partly by some of
the Generals present.
