This however was declined, and the Governor had to warn the negroes, as his predecessor had done, that the law would certainly be carried into execution by an adequate force, a threat which of course would have been useless if not backed by the presence. of an adequate force. The Governor therefore ordered an additional force to be sent to the place, so as to overawe any attempt at resistance which might be made. He at the same time got a Baptist minister who had used his influence on a former occasion to do so again, and doubtless his arguments were materially aided on both occasions by the presence of the adequate force. But the Governor's comments are worthy of attention: --"This case affords an illustration of the necessity in this country for a strong and efficient police force. Hartlands is within a few miles of Spanish Town, and I was able, therefore, to bring from Kingston a sufficient number of constables; but were a similar difficulty to occur in a distant part of the country, it, might be impossible to collect a sufficient force, and the apparent weakness of the Government would be a direct encouragement to the negroes to resist the law." So that it is manifest that the spirit of rebellion-was still so strong among the negroes, that they could only be restrained by the presence of an adequate force. And the late Governor, it was forgotten, had not such a force during martial law. The ordinary military force in the colony was but small, and the presence of the naval force more or less casual, and it will be seen that the present Governor stated the necessity for an increased military force in consequence of the disaffected condition of the negro, population. It must be manifest...

Download or read book The Natural Moral and Political History of Jamaica and the Territories thereon Depending written by James Knight and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 2021-05-19 with total page 740 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1737 and 1746, James Knight—a merchant, planter, and sometime Crown official and legislator in Jamaica—wrote a massive two-volume history of the island. The first volume provided a narrative of the colony’s development up to the mid-1740s, while the second offered a broad survey of most aspects of Jamaican life as it had developed by the third and fourth decades of the eighteenth century. Completed not long before his death in the winter of 1746–47 and held in the British Library, this work is now published for the first time. Well researched and intelligently critical, Knight’s work is not only the most comprehensive account of Jamaica’s ninety years as an English colony ever written; it is also one of the best representations of the provincial mentality as it had emerged in colonial British America between the founding of Virginia and 1750. Expertly edited and introduced by renowned scholar Jack Greene, this volume represents a colonial Caribbean history unique in its contemporary perspective, detail, and scope.

Download or read book To Hell With Paradise written by Frank Fonda Taylor and published by University of Pittsburgh Pre. This book was released on 1993-11-15 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the course of the nineteenth century, Jamaica transformed itself from a pestilence-ridden "white man's graveyard" to a sun-drenched tourist paradise. Deftly combining economics with political and cultural history, Frank Fonda Taylor examines this puzzling about-face and explores the growth of the tourist industry into the 1990s. He argues that the transformations in image and reality were not accidental or due simply to nature's bounty. They were the result of a conscious decision to develop this aspect of Jamaica's economy.Jamaican tourism emerged formally at an international exhibition held on the island in 1891. The international tourist industry, based on the need to take a break from stressful labor and recuperate in healthful and luxurious surroundings, was a newly awakened economic giant. A group of Jamaican entrepreneurs saw its potential and began to cultivate a tourism psychology which has led, more than one hundred years later, to an economy dependent upon the tourist industry.The steamships that carried North American tourists to Jamaican resorts also carried U.S. prejudices against people of color. "To Hell with Paradise" illustrates the problems of founding a tourist industry for a European or U.S. clientele in a society where the mass of the population is poor, black, and with a historical experience of slavery and colonialism. By the 1990s, tourism had become the lifeblood of the Jamaican economy, but at an enormous cost: enclaves of privilege and ostentation that exclude the bulk of the local population, drug trafficking and prostitution, soaring prices, and environmental degradation. No wonder some Jamaicans regard tourism as a new kind of sugar.Taylor explores timely issues that have not been previously addressed. Along the way, he offers a series of valuable micro histories of the Jamaican planter class, the origins of agricultural dependency (on bananas), the growth of shipping and communications links, the process of race relations, and the linking of infrastructural development to tourism. The text is illustrated with period photographs of steamships and Jamaican tourist hotels.
