' Alter the Slave n the (it. Tunic.
With the ate '9 of the slave trade
the gin tradlc only received a more pow.
eriul stimulus. To its propagation all the
energies of the traders were devoted.
qu spirits there was already a huge de-
mand. and it was increasing out of all
proportionto the taco tor better things.
t required no erections on the part. on
the merchants to set it ageing, and once
started it grsw‘and spread outsell with-
out any danger of its stopping. The
protlts, too, were enormous and certain,
because the appetite for drink had to be
assuaged, no matter what the price. Yet
in all conscience the pleasures or intoxi-
cation nrc not expensive in West Africa.
Over the doorway of hundreds of trad-
ers’ houses mighthe hung the siguboard
of Hogarth’s picture, “Drunk for a
penny. dead drunk «for twopence." only
the “clean straw" for nothing" would
have to be left out. With the traffic in
useful articles it was entirely difl'erent.
To push it was a slow and laborious
task, and the . profits were uncertain
which did not suit men who wanted to
make money rapidly. _
The result of this state of matters is
that the diabolical work commenced by
the slave trade has been eflectually car-
ried on and widened by that in spirits. l
for one am inclined to believe that the
latter is produced greater-am what are
likely to be quite as lasting-evils than
the former. The spirit tramehas n more
brutalizing cfiect; it more etlectunlly
blights all the natives energies, it ruins
his constitution, and, through the habits
it gives rises to, his lands are left as des-
olate ss alter a slave raid.
What are the most characteristic Eur-
opean imports into tot Africa? Gin,
rum, gunpowder and no. What Enr-
opean articles are most in demand? The
same. In what light do the natives look
upon the Europeans? y, as makers
and sellers of spirits and guns. What
largely supports the governmental mach-
inery of that region? Still the some ar-
ticlen.
The ships which trade to Africa are
loaded with gin but of III proportion to
more useful articlns; the warehouses
along the coast are filled with it. The
air sonms to rock with tbs vile atoll. and
every hut in redolent with its fumes.
Gin bottles and boxes meet the eye at
every step, and in some places the wealth
and importance of the various villages
are measured by the size of the pyramids
0! empty gin bottles which they erect to
their own honor and glory and the envy
of poorer districts. Over large areas it
is almost the sole currency, and in many
parts the year's wages of the negro fec-
tory workers is paid in spirits, with
which they return home to enjoy a few
dsys oi fiendish debauch.—Contempor-
sry Review.
