Y,'e copy this report from the St. Louis
Democrat of Friday:
In these progressive days, when female
lecturers are received with so much lavor,
and the fifteenth aiueuaaieut is hailed as
the dawu of a new era of (quality, it will
not appear strange that a colored "iady, all
the way from San Domingo, should be found
upon the rostrum talking iiitellieenUy upon
matters affecting the interests of both'whites
and blacks.
Haddme, E. C. L. Parqu i, who !c< : -red
last night at the Temple, was born in the
Island i,( Hayti. Her father was a Carib In
dian oi Hayti, aud her mother a negn a* i f
Madagascar. She therefore unites in her
self the blood of two races and ot two hemi
spheres. tiler father was a sea captain, and
commanded a vessel in the Alncsu trade.
He saw a comely young negress -ai Mada
gascar, sud becoming smitten with her
charms, tcok her onto with him and made
her his wife. A few days after giving birth
to her first child she died. Mrs. ParquiTs
father was killed in one of the revolu
tions cf the country, and the lecturer is the
Last of ht r family.
Mrs. Parqua is apparently about twenty
five years ol age, a widow, and about tile
si oj ot Anna Dickit.aon. bhe somewhat re
sembles Miss Dickinson in the earn-st ve
hemence of her manner, but the black via
ter hae a more music-., voice than the white
erte, and is more of a natural orator. In
completion she re-emoles a "Cuba six''—
a d..rk olive, clouded iu spots. .She has a
weatth of very black and glossy hair (not,
woo!), which cur s like the ti ndnis of a vice,
and hangs over the back brain in a tangled,
yet graceful mass, forming a huge natural
•waterfall. The high chec£ bones and
straight nose proclaim the Carib blood,
wuile the large mouth and prominent teeth
are derived from Africa.
The lady waa arrayed in a fashionable ;
|
robe of chaugei.o,e si.k of orange and :
green which wed su.ted het complexion. |
The sleeves came a little b' low the ctbow, ,
and being wide at the bottom allowed the
frilled undersleeve to be seen. She wore a ,
ve f? huge lace couar. .asteued at the front |
a yellow bow, and her waist was c-n- j
circled by a Yellow ribbon. Her feet were
encased in the thick-soled leather shoes.
and her dress trailed behind, after the sly
ot M.ss Anna Dickinson, but was not so stiff.
A chemise with heavy frills at the bottom,
and a petticoat of red flannel were occa
sionally visible. Like Miss Dickinson she
spoke without notes, and u=ed no desk or
table, fcilie wore wnite kid gloves, and
spoke with a foreign accent on some words.
Hereuuuciatiou was clear and distinct, and
at times she became quite eloquent when
speaking of the wrongs of the black race.
■s The audience was quite meagre—there
being less thau an hunured persons in the
hail, and these were principally colored,
with a small sprinkling of white .adies^and
three or four white men. ^
THE WOODSON* FAMILY,
who are of the pure, unadulterated African
race, volunteered aud furnished vocal and
instrumental music. Throe of the Misses
Woodson sung some choice ballads iu good
taste, aud played on the piano.
The lectubk.
The subject of the lecture was "Eight
Years on the Borders of the Carribbean
Sea." The lady was .introduced by Mr.
Moso3 Dixon, a yellow man of intelligence
and iuterprise, who acted a-manager on the j
Occasion. I
We have room for only a brief synopsis of
the lecture. The Hayti. n lady commeoceu

... • . • , i „ ,
fche gave aa interesting tea oi th -history
ot Hayti, the island vhicli Columbus ca!i,d i
Fan Domingo, and the French Dominique, i
• On lauding at the island, the first object
2 >on will notice is the palm tree, the m.-i^t
beautiful and ,tLe most useful tree in the
■world; the leaves growing twelve feet m
length, and the tree inrniahinga berry us. d
iu fattening hogs. The ileuses are built
without windows or doors, and hr-' is never
needed except in cooking. The first sound
you will .hear -^ill probably be the tom
toms of the idolaters—a soil of drum,
beaten with sticks. Some have husIi
calabashes filled with stones, which
they rattle as they go about. Two > ersoua,
a man aud a woman, enter a circle; a strug
gle for a piece of money ensues, and the
woman gets it. She described the different
kinds of idolators—the Carib, who worships
only animate things, such as birds aud
goats, aud the African, who worships wood
and stone. The former cia-s will probablv
select a bird as an idol, and during that
year all birds of that species are regarded as
eacred. The next year a goat will probably
be selected. The idolaters have magnificent
temples in the mountains. The idolators
sometimes sacrifice infants. An African
mother, threatened with danger, or sick near
unto death, will promise to sacrifice her in
i
j
:
i
j
f
unto death, will promise to sacrifice her in
fant if her life is spared. The infant is taken
to the templo, and its throat cut with a
(knife, and the blood is caught in a goldeu
vessel and preserved on'the altar."This,
said the lecturer, is called superstition,
bfit she found a great deal of su
perstition iu America. They suppose
the priests hoid. good and evil in their
hands. You go to the priest and tell him
that such a one has done you wrong. He
■will tell you to come on Friday to the temple.
You go, aud find him surrounded with wnite
chickens and black cats, and a cloud of
incense arising from the altar. He will
. give you a sword or a knife, and tell you the
slightest scratch from it will be the death of
your enemy. In lact, he has poisoned the
steel, for they know every poison perfectly
vrell. They sometimes put a person to death
without any one knowing the means. Thev
will stroke your head in a soothing manner',
and you will tall dead as !f i-n a fit—the
pi test hit 3 powdered poison in his hauu.
The climate of Hayti is perpetual spring.
Planting is done at any time of the year
when there is sufficient moisture. There is
no set time to harvest anything except cof
fee, and that is gathered twice a year,
t-, ... . . ,
Everything IS rriiseu there that lti raised in
tins country, except wheat aud apples
At four o'clock -a tfle mormLc- a cool lend
breeze blows, and it lasts uu.il t-leveu
o'clock, when it dies away, and the heat sets
in, and the people acek the shade; all
business is suspended until two o'clock,
when the sea bre i ze comes :n, aud business
is carried on until nve o'clock, when it closes
for the day.
The lecturer described the vegetable
bread and butter of 'Hayti, and the luscious
fruits; the pracess of cooking, washing, etc.
The Haytieu mode of burying the dead
was described. The corpse is stripped a:,d
embalmed with the mice of the souroraiige,
__ » .At__i4 X __t.__J 1. . _
aud after it is placed in the coffin no one is
afiowed to look at it. Professions! mourners
are emp oyed to attend the funeral, and they
weep aud wail-with the greatest seeming
agony. The funerals always occur at night.
On returning from the funeral the faaiijy of
the deceased invite their friends to a
pleasant party, where cake and wine ate
served.
The marriage relation is as sacred in
Hayti as here. There are two kinds of mar
riages—one among the aristocrats, when the
vows are published by sending notice to all
the principal cities, at considerable expense;
tbe other among the canaille, where tho
parties meet iu the presence of friends, and
stand up on the door and marry themselves
without ceremony; these last named mar
riage* are as logit 1 and binding as those per
formed by a priest.
After giving an account of the national
carnival of Mar(li Qras (Fat Tuesday), the
lecturer proceeded wdn her sketch uf the
history of Hayti. She said they had been
the most peaceful and quiet people of Amer
ica The population consisted of 30,000
mulatto®*, 40,000 whites, and 500,000 black
utiaves. Tne mulattoes induced the slaves
to rise and murder the whites A black
mountaineer named Toussaint L'Ouvuture
led the insurgents, and afterward command
ed the armies of the island.
Iu 1801 Napoleon sent his sister, Paulina,
to subdue the Haytieus, but she was driven
hack with her hosts, and then Rocharabeau
tried it, but met with the same fate. Blood
hounds were employed, and the Dutch sent
nounaa were wpiuveu, »uu mc uuivu
liiirtj skips, fibat Toussaint drove tuem I
j aiid_ do other peopletied thrown tiff their
away. Touseaint went alone, in confidence,
to the camp of the whttos, and was be
trayed and carried a pmoutr to France,
where he waa starved to death in priaon.
Finding he could n it conquer Eayti, Na
poleon acknowledged the independence of
the island.
• We are told, said the lecturer, lhat the
Haytieue are not Christians. Remember,
they have been free only about fifty years.
The race had been in chains a long time,
chains with their own bands. (Applause,
"(itve us time for trial. If at the expiratio
. expiration
of one hundred year? we are not civilized,
give ns another hundred years, and if we
are not civilized by that tinv\ give us still
another century, and if we are then not
civilized no to the standard oi' the New
York Ku-Klnx, why give ns another hun
dred years." (Laughter and applause.)
_ After Toussaint, llhristof ruled four years
then Alexinder Pettier for a short time. J
P. Boyer was elected president i i 1811. and
ru'ed until 1817. He was the Washington of
ld fiis mausole '.in cost several
m. djon dollars in gold. Several presidents
sneev•(!<•<:, one o; whom was only eighteen
K -ra of age. Pou!ouque was elected in
1813, and declared himself emperor the same
year, aud ruled as a despot for eleven years.
J-ffurd succeeded him; be belonged to the
a. a Hie race, but was adopted by an arieto
ot at, and was educated at Paris. He cs
< ited a reyolt against the tyrant, and de
throned him without eheddmg a drop of
blood. He was elected president for fiv
years; at the end of liia term he was about
to do the same that boulouque had done.
He is a Catholic, and made a treaty wish if
Pope, and threatened to sell Iht people into
- Avery i: they would not become Cathodes.
Tw-» presidents were elected, and Jtffurd
exiled th- m. He burned the city in which
ttio lecturer resided, and a spark of fire from
her house destroyed ihe eight of her right
eye. J.fFard robb-.d the treasury of nine
mill on do lars in gold.
Site said the Hsytiens had imitated the
United Slates in several particulars—tin y
had fought with several nations, anil at
last had fought among themselves. A
Judge of the United .States Supreme Court
had decided that black men has no rights
which a white man was bouud to respect,
and a H.iytien Judge hud decided that white
men had no rights that a black man was
bound to respect. (Laughter )
The mulattoes had been banished front
tbe ii-ia-nd. In 1347 the constitution was
revised and the mulattoes recalled, and
their property restored to them, but thev
were not allowed to hold office. In 1867
this disability was removed, tialnave was
the first mulatto ever elected President, and
i 1£ . ,*- a6l t j )e meanes t of all the 20 000 on the
island. Sarjet, the present President, is a
Carib. The nation is progressing. Every
naan in Hayti is compelled to bear arms for
seven years. The President was educated
at Heidelberg, in Germany. The country is
quiet, and will probably remain so. The
people are truly Black Republicans.
Mrs. Parqua announced that her lecture
to-night would bo on the aegro—past, pres
ent and future. She related a backwoods
auecdote, aud retired in the midst of load
applause.
Miss Woodscn then sang a sentimental
song, and Mr. Dixon carue forward and con
gratulated the audience upon tin effort ot
the lecturer. He said he had been advised
to get a church, but preferred a public hall,
for there was no hall in the country too good
for such a lecturer to speak in. or for such
an audience to sit down iu. He hoped the
colored people would turn oat better on
Friday night, and show their appreciation
of talent.
