owing to similar philanthropic sentimentalities,
also break down when they

357 “ Parable”—It is well known that the
earlier coloriists of Barbadoes, Montserrat,
and some other W. Indian islands,
were Irish exiles. Odd to relate, while a
few of their Negro slaves actually speak
Gaelic, many have acquired the
“ brogue!” An Hibernian, fresh from
the' green isle, arrived one day at the
port of Bridgetown, and was hailed by
two Negro boatmen who offered ta
take him ashore. Observing that their
names were “ Pat” and “ Murphy,”
and that their brogue was uncommonly
rich, the stranger (taking them to be
Irishmen) asked—“ and how long have
ye been from the ould counthree?”
Misunderstanding him, one of the darkies
replied, “ sex months, y’re honor.”
“ Sex months ! . . . *. only sex months,
and turned as black as me hat ! ! J— ! ! !
what a climate ! Row me back to the
ship. I’m from Cork last—and I ’ll
soon be from here !”
Every one laughs at the verdant
ignorance which believed that a Celt
could be transmuted by climate into a
Negro in 6 months. All would smile
at the notion of such a possibility withip
6, or even 60 years. Most readers
will hesitate over 600 years. Anatomy,
history, and the monuments prove that
6000 years have never metamorphosed
one type of man into another.
