ING.
Historians and Philog:s‘a have
settled it among themselves, t>
their own satisfactson, that G p
sies cama originally from India
The supposition is that this strange
race belonged to the lowest orders
of India, from which country they
wire gradually driven by their own
wandering spirit and by conquest
and opposition. But that the GypJ
sy hadmo other history than the
history of the slave, the renegade
and the vagrant in the laud of his
nativity, Ido not believe.
His faithfulness to his race-i -
stinct bespeaks a nobler and more
ancient origin than is allowed by
the theory that he is the offspring
of a mixed community recruites
from the variour ranks of Indian
society.A few hundred years would
not suffice to weld together such a
heterogeneous mats into a people
whose traditions and spirit shoe pl
survive two thousand years undim
ed, and promise to live on for as
many more.
Only the remnant of a vast’
ancient race would be able to scat
ter over the world, to separate inte
small groups, live in tvery lard
and clime, to experie. ce the sway
of every form of government o'
which history has account or which
exist to-day, to kt ow the influence
of every form of >tl giou and yet.
to be at the close of tb-> nineteenth
ceaury what they were in the days
of their expulsion from India,
what they were in lhe Middie A:*es
in no wise changed or changing,
always the same,in all lands tel ers
of fortunes, traders of borteepleal
ers in mystery.
Though separated for hundreds
of years and by leagues of space
they all speak the same language
and live the same life, alike faith
ful by the sands of Sahara and by
the shores of the Arctic Sea, by
the flow of the Ganges and by our
ow Missi si ppi.
That they passed through Per
sia aud Greece their language tes
tifies, as it also testifies to their
vast antiquity,by being closely al
lied to Sanscrit. That imme Late
ly prior to their entrance into Eu
rope a large body of them spent
some time in Egypt, is matter of
history.F<ona this fact conies their
name Egyptians,‘Gyptians, Gyp
sies.
They first appeared in Europe be.
fore the twelth century, and iu the
fourteenth century their numbers
were largely augmented. The first
notice of them in European litera
ture occurs in the writing of an Aus
trian monk about 1122, who describes
them as “Ishinaelites.”
In 1417 a band of 300 wanderers,
black as Tartars and cullimz them
selves Secani, appeared at the gates
of the German cities. They bore
letters of safe conduct from the Em
peror Sigismund. Iu 1418 they ap
peared to the number of 1,000 at the
gates of Zurich, led by “Duke Miche
ael, of little Egypt,*’ In 1422, ac
cording to the chronicle of Stumps,
the old Swiss historian, 14,000 of
these “rogues and vagabonds” pre
sented themselves at Basel, On the
17th, of August, 1427, a band of
them coming from Bohemia ap
proached the gates of Paris which
they were not permitted to enter,
the authorities appointing La Capelie
Saint Denis as their place of lodge
ment. the Gypsies sw’ept ever
Europe,
Their favorite account of them
selves was that they’ C’ in - originally
from Egypt, and that their wander
ings were a self-imposed penance
for a temporary abandonment of the
Christian faith. But persecution soon
began against them, and once afoot,
it followed them swiftly and ruth
.'cisly down the centuries.
Francis let, ordered them to quit
galleys without trid whenever
t rau< eon pain of >e ng sent to the
c.u-ht. In 15 0 they were conlemu
e I to perpetual banishment. Decrees
were issue 1 agaiu-t tin in in E iglan.l
by Henry VII and by E izib-th
Even as late as 1748 Frederick
the Great renewed the law that
■wry Gvpsy beyond the age of
e „'htee.i found in his states should
be hanged forthwith. In Scotland
they were m ire kindly received.
Bitin 101 l an act was passed
t'nt the “Egyptians pass forth of
th ? realm, ’ under pain of death.
More recently measures less bru
tal have been adopted by the gov
ernments of Europe toward these
nomads. Maria Theresa interested
h ?iself in the education of th ir
children mi 1 in the gradual settle
ment of the race as tillers of the
soil. No other countries have suc
ceeded in winning them from their
wa idering habits, and it cannot
be said that to compel them to in
habit on 1 spot results in any bene
fit to the race itself.
To be convinced that the Gypsy
i; worthy of attention, it is only
n icessary to give a new statistics,
not very accurate, I fear, but : s
nearly exact as can be obtained at
this tim *, to show how generally
an I in what numbers they are
scattered over the world. In Hun
gary, where they are known as
Czuanyok and Pharaonepek—
Pharaoh’s people —there are 140,
000; in Transylvania and the
Pr u'ipalit.'es, 162,000; in Spain,
win re they are called Zincali and
Gitanos, there are 40,000; in Eng
la id an I Scotland, 18,000; in Po
land 2,000; in Russia, 10,000; in
Germany, France and Italy com
bin'd, 40,003; in Norway, 1,500:
a id so on till the total number of
Gypsies in the world is computed
to about 5,0*30,030.—Paul K.*s
