On the morning: of Friday, Octoberi 12th, 1492, Rodrigo Triana, a sailor on the Pinto, one of Christopher Columbus's vessels, first saw the land which Colum- l-us sought. At present many people in many places are celebrating the four hundredth anniversary of that discov- ery ; and in! st of them are giving Columbus great credit for his wisdom, l is energy, his skill. and for many other - qualities which enabled him to voyage, at-tms unknown seas in search of ncwi worlds. But Mr. A. P. Dunlap under- giVe quite another character to the great explorer. It is Well known that in recent years attempts have been made to induce the papal authorities to canon- ize Columbus; and that on investigation the requtst was refused. Mr. Dunlop undertakes, and with some uppearapcc oi'succoss, to show that the great navi- gator should be placed, not among the saints. hut in the opposite category. It has been said that the land was first sighted by Rodrigo 'l‘riana, a sailor on the Pinto. The Queen had promised 10,000 maradevis to him who should first see land; but Columbus swindled Triana out of the money by pretending that he had seen a light on shore at ten o'clock the previous night. Clearly it was impossible that he coald have seen the light, because the vessels were sail- ing briskly before a fair breeze all night, and the log shows that between ten o'clock at night and the moment in which the discovery was actually made, the vessel sailed fully fil'ty miles. Besides, the Pinta was considerably in advance of Columbus's own ship. The discoverer carried home the most abom- inably false accounts of the land be had discovered. He represented that gold was in common use among the natives, though in fact there was very little there. He said he inhaled the odour of rich spices in Asia, and the nightingales were so numerous as in their flight to darken the sky. He said there were two islands lying opposite one to the other, of which the one was inhabited sohly by women of aWarlikc nature, and the other solely by men. He pre- tended that the land he had discovered was part ol Cathay or China, and that the had sent an embassy to the ‘i Grand Khan." But the worst part of his record is that of fiendish cruelty to the poor people whom he discovered. The West India island were' peopled by simple confiding savages. Columbus’s tit-st work was to reduce them to slavery. Washington Irving says: “ He had with him twenty bloodhounds, fearless and ferocious. When once they had seized their prey nothing could compel them to relinquish their hold. 'The horses, urng on by their cruel riders, bore down upon the unarmed and defenseless people striking them to the earth and trampling upon them. The horsemen dealt blows on all sides, with spear or lance, and the blows were not returned. None of vthosc butchered and terrified Indians made the least resistance, while the bloodhounds, scarce more savage than their masters, sprang upon the naked bodies of the prostrate and the fleeing, dragging them to the earth and tearing open their bowels. Those who escaped the slaughter were sold to slavery worse than death.” Since the World began no more horrible scenes of massacre and slavery have been witnessed than those which Columbus caused in the West India islands. So merciless was the slavery, so fierce the m: score, that in as few years the original inhabitants Were completely exterminatcd, and the conquerors were compelled to import accrues to till the soil. Wherever the Spanish arms were carried there the most horrible atrocities were perpetrated. Blood flowed in torrents, and the name of religion was called in to sanctil'y massacres oi'. the most revolting descrip- tion. Columbus was the author of this policy of murder and slavery, and he Was the worthy predecessor of Cortez . and Pizarro. v--._..___.. -mâ€" 1892. FALL. 1892.
