Speaking of the flrft fettlement of St. Domingo, " The natives, fays he, were indifcriminately chained together like beads ; thofe who funk under their burdens, were compelled to rife by blows. No intercourfe paiTed between the fexes but by ftealth ; the men perifhed in the mines, and the women in the fields, which they cultivated with their weak hands. Their con- ftitutions, already exhaufted with exceflive labour, were (till fur- ther impaired by an unwholeforhe and fcanty diet ; the mothers ...expired with hunger and fatigue, prelling their dead or dying infants to their breafts, fhriveUed and contracted for the want of a proper fupply of milk. The fathers either poifoned themfelves, or hanged themfelves on thofe very trees on which they had juft feen their wives and children expire. The whole race became extinct. " In another place, fpeaking of the flaves of the Euro- peans in general, he obferves, " That fach hard labour is requi- red of negro women, both before and after their pregnancy, that their children are either abortive, or live but a fhort time after delivery ; mothers, rendered defperate by the punilliments which the weaknefs of their condition occafions them, fnatch fome- times their children from the cradle, in order to frxangle them in their arms, and facrifice them with a fury mingled with a fpirit of revenge and companion, that they may not become th : pro- perty of their cruel aufters.
