It is to show that statistics, -capable of affording complete _practical_ results when wanted, have -scarcely made a beginning in the colonies. It is to show that when the -Colonial Office, with great labour and no little cost, has collected, -and I, with the same, have reduced these materials, they are incapable -of giving all the beneficial information expected. The material does -not exist, or, if it does, it is in a very _undeveloped_ state. Such -as it is, I have tried to do the best I could with it. And this is the -result. - -Several years ago, before Sir George Grey returned to his government -at the Cape, I had a conversation with him on a subject which had -dwelt very much on his mind, viz., the gradual disappearance of the -aboriginal races from the neighbourhood of civilized communities. One -of the points raised in the discussion was the probable effect which -European school usages and school education might exercise on the -health of the children of parents and of races who had never hitherto -been brought under education. - - -Colonial school returns. - -It appeared of great importance to ascertain, if possible, the precise -influence which school training exercised on the health of native -children. And I applied to the Colonial Office for aid in carrying -out such an inquiry. The Duke of Newcastle entered warmly into the -subject, and offered at once to call for any information which might -throw light on it. I had a simple school form prepared and printed, -copies of which were sent by the Colonial Office to the Governors of -the various colonies. Returns were made from a large number of schools, -but as no information has been received from many more, I presume the -school statistics did not afford the means of supplying the required -information. {4} - -I have received, through the Colonial Office, filled up returns from -143 schools, in Ceylon, Australia, Natal, West Coast of Africa, British -North America, the results of which are given in the accompanying -series of tables. - -[Sidenote: pp. 20 to 26.] - -Table A. gives the name and date of opening of each school, the numbers -of years included in the Return, the average number of native children, -their sexes and ages for quinquennial periods, together with the -mortality for the period included in the return. The results of this -table for all the colonial schools are given in the reduction Table A. -a., which states the total average attendance for all the schools in -each colony, together with the total deaths, arranged in quinquennial -periods, so far as it could be done. This table merely gives the -general numerical results; but as the periods vary considerably it has -been necessary to reduce the data under one common denomination, to -obtain the absolute annual rate of mortality. This has been done in the -Tables B, C, D, E, F, which show the years of life and the mortality -for each sex and age. - -[Sidenote: p. 26.] - -Table A. a. shows that the average attendance of all ages at these -schools has been 7,485 boys, and 2,453 girls, making a total of 9,938 -as the number of children on whom the rate of mortality has been -obtained. A small proportion of these children, only 672 boys and 422 -girls, were under 5 years of age. There were 3,546 (2,651 boys and 895 -girls) between the ages of 5 and 10. Between the ages of 10 and 15 -there were 3,268 children, viz., 2,288 boys, and 980 girls. At the age -of 15 and upwards there were 1,391 boys, and only 156 girls, attending -school. - -The total deaths, for the various periods, on this school attendance -were 451 boys and 132 girls, of all ages, besides 79 boys and 39 girls -who are returned as leaving school _annually_ to die at home. It is -important to remark that, out of a total average school attendance of -9,938, only 235 boys and 82 girls are stated to leave school annually -from ill-health. - -[Sidenote: pp. 27, 28.] - -The relative mortality of boys and girls attending these schools is -shown by Tables B. to F. - -The death rate, it will be observed, varies considerably in different -colonies. It is least among the native children at Natal, where a -little more than five males per 1,000 and three females per 1,000 die -annually. The Ceylon schools give a death rate of 14 1/2 per 1,000 per -{5} annum for boys and about 3 per 1,000 per annum for girls. But, -including deaths among children who leave school to die at home, this -rate would be nearly doubled. - -The Indian schools in Canada afford a total annual death rate of 12 1/2 -per 1,000 for both sexes; but the mortality of girls is nearly double -that of boys. - -The Sierra Leone schools afford a very high rate of mortality, viz., 20 -per 1,000 for males, and 35 per 1,000 for females. - -The Western Australian schools yield the highest death rate of any, -nearly 35 per 1,000 for boys and 13 per 1,000 for girls. - -These death rates are of course only approximations to the truth. But -on any supposition they are very high. - -It is important to compare these death rates with those of children of -the same ages at home. But we have only the means of doing so for 5 -years of age and onwards. The home rates are given in Table E., which -shows that from 5 to 10 the total mortality of both sexes is 9·2 per -1,000 at home. From 10 to 15 it is 5·3 per 1,000. Above 15 the home -mortality is 8·4 per 1,000. Making allowance for native children dying -at home, we shall be within the truth in assuming the mortality of -native children at school as double that of English children of the -same ages. - -[Sidenote: Table G, p. 29.] - -The next point of the inquiry is to ascertain the nature of the fatal -diseases. And here we find a remarkable difference in the returns from -different colonies. Thus out of 190 deaths in the Sierra Leone schools, -all except 8 are due to small pox, measles, and hooping cough, scarlet -fever, and other forms of fever. - -In the Ceylon schools these same diseases, with the addition of -diarrhœa, dysentery, and cholera, give rise to 261 deaths out of a -total mortality of 341. In contrast with this great prevalence of -miasmatic diseases, the West Australian schools yield only 2 deaths -from children’s epidemics, out of a total mortality of 9. - -In the Natal schools three children died of miasmatic diseases out of a -total mortality of 16, while in the Canadian schools there is only one -miasmatic death out of a total mortality of 27. - -The adult natives at many of the colonies are considered specially -subject to tubercular diseases, more particularly consumption. This -class of diseases is indeed supposed to be a main cause of the gradual -decline and disappearance of uncivilized or semi-civilized races. {6} - -The facts, as regards these colonial schools, are as follow:― - -Amongst the Sierra Leone children there is only one death from -consumption and one from scrofula reported out of a total of 190 -deaths. In the West Australian schools two of the nine deaths arose -from consumption. In the Natal schools there was one death from -consumption and one from scrofula out of 16 deaths. But there died -seven children of other chest diseases besides consumption. The Ceylon -schools yielded seven deaths from consumption, five from other chest -diseases, and one from scrofula, out of a total mortality of 341. - -[Sidenote: Table S, p. 47.] - -These figures, so far as they go, show comparatively little liability -to consumptive diseases among children in these colonies. But there is -a native training institution in South Australia, in which a very large -proportion of the mortality is due to tubercular diseases. Scrofula, -phthisis, and hæmoptysis are returned as having occasioned 69·6 per -cent. of the total mortality in the institution, among males, and 61·9 -per cent. among females. When we cross over to Canada we find that, out -of a total mortality of 27, 16 deaths arose from consumption and five -from scrofula. Indeed all the specified deaths arose from tubercular -disease except one solitary death from fever. - -I will next describe shortly the method of the school education, with -its probable influence on the children’s health. - -[Sidenote: pp. 30 to 39.] - -The facts under this head are given in the form of notes to each school -return. I have had them thrown together, for the sake of comparison, in -Table H., the general results of which are as follow. - -Many of the school houses are described in the returns as of bad -construction, and ill situated for health, and the ventilation very -insufficient. Some of them are unfavourably situated for free external -ventilation, or their local position is damp and subject to malaria, -the results of which, as well as the results of general defective -sanitary condition in their vicinity are evidenced by the great -prevalence of miasmatic diseases, such as fevers, diarrhœa, dysentery, -and even cholera, among the children. - -The period of tuition varies considerably, from two up to ten or more -years. The school instruction is generally five; in a few cases, six -days a week. At a few stations {7} nearly half the year is allowed for -holidays. But generally the holidays are from two to six or eight weeks. - -In most of the schools there seem to be no play hours on school days. -When play hours are allowed these are from half an hour to two hours. -At about a dozen schools only is there any out-door work combined with -instruction. The largest amount of this work is given in the Natal -and Canadian schools. Out of the whole number there are only nine -schools at which there is any attempt made at combining the elements of -physical education with the school instruction, and even where this is -done the measure is partial and inefficient, being confined to a few -exercises or simply to bathing. The obvious physiological necessity of -engrafting civilized habits on uncivilized races gradually through the -means of systematic physical training appears to be nowhere recognized, -except at New Norcia (Benedictine) school, Western Australia, -on the return from which there is the following very important -statement:―Gymnastics are stated to be necessary to prevent sickness, -and the reporter proceeds, “The idea of bringing savages from their -wild state at once to an advanced civilization serves no other purpose -than that of murdering them.” And the result of the out-door training -practised at this school is said to have been hitherto successful “in -preventing the destructive effects of this error.” - -[Sidenote: Appendix II. p. 62.] - -Confinement appears to be peculiarly injurious to the aborigines of -South Australia, for the Governor states that he “almost always finds -it necessary to release prisoners before the expiration of their -sentences, as death is apt to ensue from any prolonged confinement.” -Even partial confinement in schools, he thinks, injuriously affects the -native constitution. - -Another very important observation bearing on the necessity of careful -consideration of habits is recorded on the return from one of the Natal -schools. It might be supposed that one of the most obvious duties -in bringing native children to school would be to clothe them, but -nevertheless clothing an uncivilized child requires care.† In their -natural state they expose themselves to torrents of rain which, runs -off them, and they are easily warmed {8} and dried at the hut fire. -But it is stated that, when clothed in flannel and jersey, they get -chilled by the rain, and that pulmonary diseases ensue as a consequence. - - † People have been asked to assist in making - clothing for the Kaffir - tribes whom missionaries were going out to address, - that the feeling of decency might not be offended in - addressing the naked. - -The method of conducting colonial schools appears to be based on our -home system, without reference to physical training or other local -conditions affecting health. This fact, together with the high rate of -mortality, is the most prominent result of our inquiry. And although -there is not sufficient evidence to show to what extent the school -education increases the mortality, there is strong reason to believe -that it is a cause. By far the greater part of the mortality is the -direct result of mitigable or preventible diseases. - -In all the schools within or near the tropics the miasmatic class of -diseases occasions most of the mortality at the earlier periods of -life. A considerable proportion arises from small-pox, showing bad -management of children, and that vaccination is either neglected or -imperfectly performed. The other fatal diseases are mainly those which -in this country are connected with bad drainage, deficient and bad -water supply, overcrowding, and want of sufficient house accommodation -and cleanliness. In the Canadian schools consumption and scrofula -appear to occupy the place of miasmatic diseases. But there is nothing -in the school education, as described in the returns, sufficient to -account for their special prevalence in these schools. The causes must -probably be looked for in the close foul atmosphere of the native -dwellings in a climate where warmth is more likely to be sought by -closing every opening capable of admitting fresh air than would be the -case in warmer latitudes, together with exposure and other conditions -depressing to the general health. - -Although these returns show the necessity of making systematic physical -training and bodily labour at useful occupations an element absolutely -essential and never to be neglected in the training of uncivilized and -half civilized children in civilized habits and trains of thought, -there is nothing to show that education properly conducted tends to the -destruction and disappearance of native tribes. - -The general result may be summed up in the following words: “Educate -by all means, but look carefully at the problem with which you have -to deal, and above all things never forget that education everywhere, -but more {9} especially with uncivilized tribes, must always include -physical training and useful work.” - - * * * * * - - -Colonial hospital returns. - -Besides this statistical inquiry into the condition of schools, I had -forms prepared for colonial hospitals into which natives are received -for treatment, in order to compare the school diseases with those -prevailing among the adult population. They were sent to the colonies, -also by the great kindness of the Duke of Newcastle. And returns have -been received from the following hospitals:―Free Town, Sierra Leone, -Cape Coast, Natal, Mauritius, Colombo and Malabar, King William’s Town, -Kaffraria, and from two native hospitals in Canada. - -[Sidenote: pp. 40 to 53.] - -These returns were applied for as affording the only means of arriving -at a knowledge of the prevailing classes of diseases among natives and -of the relative mortality from each class. Abstracts of the returns, -showing the mortality on the admissions for different sexes and ages, -and the relative per-centages of mortality from each disease, are -appended. (Forms I. to Y.) Of course the results can be relied on -only so far as they represent the proportions admitted and dead from -each disease, taken on numbers often hardly sufficiently large for -statistical purposes. On account of the smallness of these numbers, I -consider the results as only approximations, which I give because there -is nothing better to be had. The tables do not enable us to ascertain -directly the state of health or rate of mortality of the native -population; but they afford us in an indirect manner a considerable -amount of important information as to the diseases from which natives -suffer. The hospital statistics appear to be very much in the same -unsatisfactory condition as they are in many of our home hospitals. -With these reservations the mortality statistics of these hospitals -show a very high death rate upon the numbers treated. - -[Sidenote: Table L, p. 41.] - -Thus, in Free Town Hospital, the mortality to admissions among males -is upwards of 20 per cent., and among females 18·6 per cent. of the -admissions.† - - † The admissions are obtained by adding the - deaths to the recoveries, in the absence of more definite - information. - -[Sidenote: Table T, p. 48.] - -At the Civil Hospital, Port Louis, Mauritius, the mortality is 21·3 per -cent. for males, and 38·8 per cent. for females. {10} - -[Sidenote: Table V, p. 50.] - -In the Ceylon hospitals it is 20·7 per cent. for males, and 18·1 per -cent. for females. - -[Sidenote: Table P, p. 44.] - -At Natal the mortality is much lower, being 12·8 per cent. for males -and 6·6 per cent. for females. - -[Sidenote: Table N, p. 43.] - -In Kaffraria the mortality for males and females is 21·8 per cent. - -[Sidenote: Table X, p. 52.] - -In the Canadian hospitals it is 12·3 per cent. for males and 14 per -cent. for females. - -These high death rates can be attributed only to one or more of -the following causes:―Defective stamina in the population, delay -in applying for medical relief, bad and insufficient hospital -accommodation, or defective medical treatment and management of the -sick. The exact influence of each of these elements could hardly be -appreciated without local inquiry. But the tables enable us to obtain -some insight into the matter. - -[Sidenote: Table M, p. 42.] - -We find, _e. g._, that in the tropical districts the miasmatic class -of diseases occasions a large proportion of the mortality, _e. g._, -at Sierra Leone 20·4 per cent. of the total mortality among males and -6·8 per cent. of that among females is due to small-pox; that 34 per -cent. of the mortality among females is due to dysentery; and that 19 -per cent. of the mortality among males is due to periodic fevers. The -mortality from miasmatic disease in this hospital is no less than 43·9 -per cent. of the total mortality among men, and 43·1 per cent. of the -total mortality among women. - -[Sidenote: Table K, p. 40.] - -At Cape Coast Hospital the admissions from miasmatic diseases, at -least those recorded, amounted only to 9 1/2 per cent. of the total -admissions, and no deaths are attributed to this class of diseases. -This is quite sufficient to show the imperfection of the hospital -records at this station. - -[Sidenote: Table U, p. 49.] - -At Port Louis Hospital, Mauritius, the miasmatic deaths from dysentery, -diarrhœa, cholera, continued fevers, and rheumatism amounted to 54·9 -per cent. of the total mortality for men, and 47·9 per cent. of the -total female mortality. - -[Sidenote: Table W, p. 51.] - -Dysentery appears to be particularly severe and fatal amongst the -natives in Ceylon, for the returns show that 43·6 per cent. of the -men’s mortality and 30·1 per cent. of the women’s were due to this one -disease. The miasmatic class generally gave rise in these hospitals to -64·3 per cent. of the total deaths of men, and 60·1 per cent. of those -of women. {11} - -[Sidenote: Table Q, p. 45.] - -In D’Urban Hospital and Grey’s Hospital, Natal, 41·1 per cent. of -the men’s mortality arose from continued fever, and 6 per cent. from -dysentery. This latter disease occasioned all the deaths in hospital -among women. These two diseases are the only ones of the miasmatic -class which proved fatal. - -[Sidenote: Table O, p. 43.] - -Miasmatic diseases appear to be rare among the native patients at King -William’s Town, Kaffraria. Only one of them, dysentery, produced a -fatal result, and it gave rise to no more than 6 per cent. of the total -deaths of men and women conjointly. - -[Sidenote: Table Y, p. 53.] - -The same diseases appear to be rare also in the Canadian hospitals, -where they occasioned 12·3 per cent. of the men’s mortality and 17·3 -per cent. of the women’s. The prevailing types were diarrhœa, periodic -fevers, and rheumatism. - -[Sidenote: Table M.] - -If we take the other points of comparison, supplied by tubercular -diseases, we find a remarkable difference in the proportion of -mortality in different colonies. Thus, the death rate from scrofula, -phthisis, and hæmoptysis, at Free Town, Sierra Leone, amounts to 3·2 -per cent. of the total deaths from all causes among men, and 2·3 per -cent. among women. In this hospital other chest diseases give rise to a -mortality of 2·4 per cent. for men. - -[Sidenote: Table K.] - -At Cape Coast Hospital no deaths are registered from any class of -tubercular or chest affections. - -[Sidenote: Table Q.] - -At D’Urban Hospital and Grey’s Hospital, Natal, there was a similar -absence of mortality from these diseases. - -[Sidenote: Table W, p. 51.] - -The Ceylon hospitals afforded also only a small mortality, 0·7 per -cent. for men, and 1·1 per cent. for women. There was, however, a -mortality of 1·3 per cent. for other chest diseases, among men, and -1·7 per cent. among women. In striking contrast with this comparative -exemption from a class of diseases to which the disappearance of the -native races has been to a large extent attributed, we find a very -considerable increase in the other hospitals. - -[Sidenote: Table U.] - -At Mauritius the mortality from scrofula, phthisis, and hæmoptysis, was -8·7 per cent. of the total mortality among men, and 3·7 per cent. among -women. Other chest diseases furnish a mortality of 3·6 and 1·8 per -cent. among men and women respectively. - -[Sidenote: Table O.] - -At King William’s Town Hospital, Kaffraria, the mortality from -tubercular diseases, for men and women {12} conjointly, was no less -than 70·6 per cent. of the total deaths, and from chest diseases 11·7 -per cent. - -[Sidenote: Table Y.] - -Both classes of disease afford a high death rate in the Canadian -hospitals. For the tubercular forms this amounts to 44·9 per cent. for -men, and 41·3 per cent. for women. The other chest diseases give rise -to 30·6 per cent. of the total hospital mortality for men, and 24·4 per -cent. for women. Three-fourths of the whole hospital mortality among -men, and two-thirds among women, were thus due to some form or other of -chest disease. - -Much has been said and written on the pernicious effects of the use -of intoxicating liquors by uncivilized races. Diseases of the brain -and nervous system, and liver diseases, are those which, at home, -are generally supposed to indicate the greater or less prevalence -of habits of intoxication among the people. Let us inquire to what -extent admissions and deaths from these classes prevail in the various -colonies. - -[Sidenote: Table M.] - -At Sierra Leone brain and nervous diseases occasion 5·7 per cent. of -the total admissions, and 12·7 per cent. of the total deaths among -men, and 9·2 per cent. of the admissions, with 21·6 per cent. of the -deaths, among women. Liver diseases afford only 0·1 per cent. of the -admissions, and no deaths. - -[Sidenote: Table K.] - -Cape Coast Hospital affords an extraordinary contrast to this, for -there we find that, although brain and nervous diseases and liver -diseases occasion no more than 4·8 per cent., and 2·4 per cent., -respectively, of the admissions, all the deaths arose from them. - -[Sidenote: Table Q.] - -The Natal hospitals show a proportion of admissions from brain and -nervous diseases, of 5·7 per cent. of men, and 8·3 per cent. of women. -But no deaths and no admissions from liver disease. - -[Sidenote: Table O.] - -The King William’s Town Hospitals, Kaffraria, show no admissions from -either class. - -[Sidenote: Table U.] - -At Mauritius the admissions from brain and nervous diseases were 3·5 -per cent. for men, and 2·7 per cent. for women, and the deaths 6·1 per -cent. for men, and 1·9 per cent. for women. Liver disease is so rare as -to be scarcely appreciable. - -[Sidenote: Table W.] - -A similar remark applies to the infrequency of liver disease in the -Ceylon hospitals. In these hospitals, the admissions from brain and -nervous diseases are 1·6 per cent. for men, and 3·2 per cent. for -women. And the deaths 1·5 per cent. and 3·1 per cent. respectively. -{13} - -[Sidenote: Table Y.] - -No liver diseases were admitted into the Canadian hospitals. And the -brain and nervous diseases afforded 6·5 per cent. admissions, and 2 per -cent. deaths for men, with 5·2 per cent. admissions and no deaths for -women. - - * * * * * - - -Results. - -These are the statistical results of this inquiry. To the extent to -which the data are imperfect, the results are of course unreliable. The -numbers are often much smaller than are required for such purposes. I -have used them because the best obtainable, even with the assistance -of the colonial governments; and the first lesson they teach is -the necessity for assimilating the colonial registration and vital -statistics to those at home. But, with all their defects, when these -statistics are examined, they bring clearly into light certain great -general facts. - -As regards the schools, they show us that the educational idea in the -colonies is just as deficient as it is at home, and that it is attended -with worse physical consequences. - -No account appears to be taken of the past history of the races on -whom it is desired to confer the inestimable blessings of Christian -civilization. Our teachers go among them just as they would into -English villages. They collect the children who, together with their -ancestors, have spent most of their existence in active out-door -habits, into all classes of structures, good, bad, and indifferent, -apparently without regard to the effect of local conditions on their -health. In all probability the children are set together as close -as they are placed in one of our Home “Model Schools,” without any -reference to children’s epidemics or other fevers. This is not done -without great risk, even with children of English birth. But to do -this with children taken from their open air habits in uncivilized or -semi-civilized communities is to incur the immediate danger of losing -the most hopeful pupils by diseases, which, under a more rational -system, might in all probability be avoided. - -The education appears to be confined simply to head-work, and no -provision is made for sustaining the health by physical training, while -it is in danger of exhaustion by a cerebral stimulus, perhaps applied -for the first time in the history of the family from which the child -has sprung. It is true that cerebral disease forms only a small part -of the school mortality; but the diseases from which the mortality -proceeds in the tropical schools are {14} the result of overcrowding, -defective ventilation, and other local sanitary evils, all of which are -augmented by sedentary occupation. - -The remedy for this is obviously to improve the school-houses, to give -more attention to space, to ventilation, and to the locality where the -school is placed, and above all to make physical training an essential -and important part of the school system, never forgetting that the -habits of generations cannot be suddenly broken through without danger -to health and life. - -In as far as concerns the effect of the schools on the disappearance of -native races, the returns contain no appreciable evidence. Education, -if properly conducted, together with the improved personal, physical, -and moral habits consequent on it, ought everywhere to be conservative -and not destructive; but to be so it should be conducted, as already -stated, with a full knowledge of the physiological effects of altered -habits and the influence of these on health. - -The hospital returns, so far as they can be relied on, show in the -tropical colonies a large mortality from diseases arising from bad -drainage, bad water, imperfect agriculture, want of cleanliness, and -from other bad habits. Bad, overcrowded, unventilated dwellings must -also in these colonies, as at home, bear their proportion of the -blame. Thus mortality arising from mitigable or preventible causes of -an external nature occasions in all the colonies by far the greatest -part of the death rate in hospitals. Incivilization with its inherent -diseases, when brought into contact with civilization without adopting -specific precautions for preserving health, will always carry with it a -large increase of mortality on account of the greater susceptibility of -its subjects to those causes of disease which can to a certain extent -be endured without as great a risk by civilized communities born among -them. - -The hospital returns throw little light on the causes of the -disappearance of native races, unless these are to be found in the -great prevalence of tubercular and chest diseases in certain of -the colonies. This is especially remarkable in the returns from -Australia, Kaffraria, and Canada. But why this class of affections -should be so much more prevalent in the temperate than in the tropical -colonies could only be ascertained by careful local inquiry. One -thing is certain that, in those colonies from which complaints of the -disappearance of native races have come, {15} tubercular and chest -diseases appear to occasion the largest amount of hospital mortality. - -The discovery of the causes of this must be referred back to the -colonies. Anything which exhausts the constitution; above all -things, foul air during sleep, will engender these diseases. Open -locality, healthy winds, active daily occupation, are by themselves no -safeguards, if the nights be spent in unventilated cabins. The Alpine -climates of Europe are known to be the most free of any climates from -this tribe of diseases. But even on their healthy mountain slopes -scrofula in all its forms prevails among the peasants, engaged during -summer on the high pastures, when they pass their nights in the close -unhealthy chalets there. - -It is possible that a tubercular taint so engendered may be the cause -of the whole evil, and it is to this point that the inquiry has brought -us. - - * * * * * - -Appended to the school and hospital returns from each colony, there -are very interesting notes, giving generally the impression of the -reporters on the nature and causes of disease among the aboriginal -population. These notes, the chief portions of which I have appended, -confirm the statistical evidence; but they afford little additional -light on the causation. - -The decaying races are chiefly in Australia, New Zealand, Canada, -and perhaps in certain parts of South Africa. They appear to consist -chiefly of tribes which have never been civilized enough or had force -of character enough to form fixed settlements or to build towns. Such -tribes have few fixed habits or none. But the papers show that they are -naturally, in their uncivilized condition, possessed of far stronger -stamina, and that they resist the effects of frightful wounds and -injuries far better than civilized men. This latter fact tells strongly -against any natural proclivity to diseased action. But we nevertheless -see that when they come in contact with civilized men, and are, as -a necessary consequence, obliged to conform themselves to a certain -extent to the vices and customs of their _civilized_ (_!_) neighbours, -they perish from disease. - -[Sidenote: Appendix II., pp. 62–3.] - -The evidence contained in these notes unfortunately proves that the -pioneers of British civilization are not always the best of the -British people. Many of them, it is to be feared, leave their own -country, stained with vice and vicious habits, ready for any act of -oppression, ready {16} to take any advantage of the simplicity of the -poor aborigines. Such people have introduced everywhere the use of -intoxicating drinks, together with the diseases as well as the vices of -their own depraved standard of civilization. Where the races are found -most rapidly decaying, there the married women are found living in a -state of prostitution and exposed to its diseases. And we know where -such is the case, decline and extinction are inevitable. - -This appears to be a main cause of the falling off in births; while the -other evil habits introduced by Europeans destroy the stamina of the -adult population and raise its rate of mortality. With the facts before -us, imperfect as they are, we need feel no surprise at the gradual -extinction of these unhappy races. But we should draw from them an -argument for doing all that can be done to lessen these evils, and to -remove, as far as practicable, any causes of disease and death which it -may be in our power to remove. - -Complaint of such things, in some form or other, runs through the whole -of the evidence regarding these aboriginal populations, who appear to -be far more susceptible of the operation of causes of disease arising -out of imperfect civilization, than are civilized† men; how much more -so must they be to such dreadful causes as those indicated above! - - † Meaning by “civilized,” men who can live together in a city or - village without cutting each other’s throats. - -There is a strong presumption that, if aboriginal races are left -undisturbed in their own country to follow their own customs and even -their own vices, they will continue to exist as they have hitherto -done, in a slowly increasing or stationary condition. But there is no -reason to doubt the evidence contained in these papers that certain -races require very little disturbance in their primeval habits to pass -into a state of decline. - -The great question at issue is, how this is to be arrested. - -The facts appear to point to such remedial measures as the following:― - -1. That provision of land should be made for the exclusive use of -the existing tribes; but this, by itself, would be simply preserving -their barbarism for the sake of preserving their lives. And the -question naturally occurs whether Moravian settlements or settlements -conducted on entirely similar principles, under whatever Christian {17} -denomination, might not be introduced for the purpose of wisely and -gradually winning the people to higher and better habits. - -2. A good government which really understood its responsibilities would -put down with any force requisite that most accursed of all British -habits, the sale of intoxicating drinks to those who never knew them -before. On the heads of these traffickers rests the blood of thousands -of their fellow men. - -3. Although a large proportion of children have died while under -school instruction, there is no proof that education, if properly -conducted, tends to extinguish races. And it _is_ possible that by -educating outcast native children, these tribes, with whatever mental -constitution endowed, may be spared to contribute their quota to human -knowledge and advancement. - -4. The school diseases, however, indicate that education should be -conducted in a very different manner from what it is in England. -Physiology would teach us that it is not safe to take the child of -uncivilized parents, and to submit it all at once to the restraints of -civilization. What is wanted is a careful study of what can and what -cannot be done with safety. Time would seem to be a great element in -the education of these children. There should be as little interference -as possible with their born habits and customs. And that interference -should take place gradually and wisely. The probability is that if -children could leave school in health, with sufficient training to -enable them to enter the pale of civilization, their children would be -the more able to bear the required development of the mental faculties. -In any case, physical training, and a large amount of out-door work, -are essentially necessary to success. - -5. We all know how difficult it is to preserve health among dense -populations in our houses at home. We may hence infer how much more -difficult it is to draw together numbers of uncivilized or partially -civilized people, within the same boundary, or under the same roof, -without great risk to health and life. Bring a healthy family from the -open country into a narrow crowded London alley, and the little ones -will die, the elder ones will be sick for, perhaps, the first time of -their lives, and the parents will fall into confirmed ill health, to -say the least of it. - -Our home experience hence teaches us the extreme importance of -favourable sanitary conditions, whenever an {18} attempt is made to -bring the uncivilized within the pale of civilization. - -Every society which has been formed has had to sacrifice large -proportions of its earlier generations to the new conditions of life -arising out of the mere fact of change. Only by the greatest care and -by the adoption of every requisite improvement can London itself bear -the rapid increase of its population without danger from pestilence. - -This destroying principle is now at work in the colonies where races -are decaying. And its results can only be diminished by assimilating -the new conditions, involved in the change, as nearly as possible, so -far as healthiness is concerned, to the open air activity to which the -people have been for generations accustomed. - -These are the results of this inquiry. Defective in many particulars -though they be, they are still sufficient to prove that, on the local -authorities of the colonies, there rests a responsibility in the -face of public opinion in Europe, of the very gravest kind. It is a -matter for state interference. It is impossible to stand by, while -races are disappearing, of whom it can be said that the “Australian is -the finest model of the human proportions in muscular development,” -that his “head might compare with an antique bust of a philosopher,” -that his “perceptive faculties are peculiarly acute,” that he is an -“apt learner,” and “possesses the most intense desire to imitate his -more civilized brethren in almost every thing;” that the Australian -aborigines are “possessed of mental power on a par with their brethren -of the other races of man; that they are perhaps superior to the Negro -and some of the more inferior divisions of the great human family;” -that they have “keen perceptive faculties, with a considerable -deficiency in their reflective faculties, and a certain want of -steadiness of purpose in their characters which appears the great -obstacle to be overcome in reclaiming them and bringing them within the -pale of civilization and Christianity.” - -These statements are from a report on the subject, made by a select -committee of the Legislative Council of Victoria in 1858–9. In this -report occurs the following passage, with which I conclude on account -of its authority, appealing from its facts to the better feeling of the -colonies, with the hope that the time is not far off when such a stigma -as it affixes to the empire may be wiped away. - - “The great and almost unprecedented reduction in the {19} number - of the Aborigines is to be attributed to the general occupation of - the country by the white population; to vices acquired by contact - with a civilized race, more particularly the indulgence in ardent - spirits; and hunger, in consequence of the scarcity of game since the - settlement of the colony; and, also in some cases, to cruelty and - ill-treatment. The great cause, however, is apparently the inveterate - propensity of the race to excessive indulgence in spirits, which it - seems utterly impossible to eradicate. This vice is not only fatal, - but leads to other causes which tend to shorten life. - - “Mr. Thomas, the guardian of Aborigines, states in evidence, that - one morning he found five drunken blacks lying buried in the mud at - the Merri Creek, which being followed by pulmonary attack, death, as - is invariably the case, ensued. It may be remarked, that consumption - forms a fruitful cause of mortality amongst them, in addition to the - other causes enumerated. - - “It would appear that they have materially degenerated since the - advent of the whites, as Mr. Thomas has said ‘the young die two to - one in proportion to the old; I have some old people yet.’ The rapid - settlement necessary upon the country being occupied by flocks and - herds was more unfavourable to the Aborigines than if it had only been - gradually taken up for agricultural purposes. - - “Your Committee are of opinion that great injustice has been - perpetrated upon the Aborigines—that, when the Government of the - colony found it necessary to take from them their hunting grounds and - their means of living, proper provision should have been made for - them. Had they been a strong race, like the New Zealanders, they would - have forced the new occupiers of their country to provide for them; - but being weak and ignorant, even for savages, they have been treated - with almost utter neglect. - - “With the exception of the Protectorate, which was an emanation of - the Imperial Government, and which seemed to have been only partially - successful, little or nothing has been done for the black denizens of - the country.” - -Every colony where the native races are declining could furnish some -such report as this. The injustice has been a common one, and so should -be the remedy. {20} - - - - -APPENDIX I. - -TABLES showing the MORTALITY and CAUSES of MORTALITY among ABORIGINES -in COLONIAL SCHOOLS and COLONIAL HOSPITALS. - - -TABLE A.―ATTENDANCE and MORTALITY at COLONIAL NATIVE SCHOOLS. - - +────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────+ - │ Sub-table A1, SIERRA LEONE, WESTERN AUSTRALIA, and NATAL.

It is purely a disease of the brain -and nervous system, generally fatal, except when seen in the very early -stages. As it is generally met with, the patient sleeps continually, -even when standing up, and becomes perfectly incapable of any exertion; -the sufferer will even fall asleep while being fed. I have seen them -last in this state for months, and gradually die of inanition from -want of a sufficiency of food to support life. I have tried all kinds -of treatment, but cannot recommend any more likely to be beneficial -than a prolonged slight salivation, if you can meet the case in the -inflammatory stage or that previous to the sleeping state just alluded -to. - -This and leprosy are the only diseases met with here from which the -European is exempt. - - ROBT. BRADSHAW, L.K. & Q.C.P.I. - Colonial Surgeon. - - Freetown, Sierra Leone. - - -NATAL. - -_Special Remarks._―Of seven of the eight cases of syphilis (native), -Hottentots were the subjects. Here, as elsewhere, they copy European -vices very readily. The Kafirs adhere to their own vices, but are more -slow in copying European manners and habits, good or evil. - -I have met with one decided case of scrofula among the Zulus, and one -only. - -The ages of infants are reckoned by moons, but adult Kafirs (as the -rule) do not know how old they are; the ages given are therefore only -surmised, and cannot be depended on. - -The tendency of disease among the Kafirs is to collapse and paralysis. -No year goes round without deaths from cold and wet, which they bear -less well than European settlers. They are apt to sink under any -serious form of disease. - -Flesh wounds heal well, causing less constitutional disturbance than -among Europeans, but fractured bones do not so soon re-unite. I have -found lime water, a pint or more given daily, promote their union. Lime -is scarce here, and the shells of eggs are correspondingly thin. - -Lung disease is more frequent among natives than white settlers, unless -the latter bring the seeds of disease with them; but I doubt whether -it is true phthisis. I suspect that the lungs of both natives and -settlers are more liable to become hepatized or otherwise disorganized -than tuberculated. In examining the lungs of cattle who have died of -lung sickness, I have found large portions of lung degenerated into -an impervious muscle-like substance resembling beef, while in other -portions the disease has shown itself to be of so anemic a character -as to have proceeded without much pause to suppuration. I believe that -in this climate, subjects of phthisis, who had only small tubercles in -their lungs, would find their further development arrested; indeed this -has been, in many cases, proved to have occurred. - -The lung disease, called lung sickness, in cattle, does not, with -regard to the organ attacked, affect human beings, but the tendency -of the present race of mankind is to anemic rather than acutely -inflammatory diseases. The most destructive modern diseases, influenza, -cholera, and diphtheria, are of an anemic character; other diseases are -now, more than formerly, inclined to assume this character. It is not -that medicine and doctors, but that human constitutions, vary. The rule -laid down by Pinel that bleeding confirms mania is good now; but 50 or -70 years ago, as, perhaps, 50 or 70 years hence, more exceptional cases -did and may again occur than are at present met with. {55} - -[Sidenote: Vide Tables P. and Q., pp. 44 and 45.] - -The mortality from fever will be seen to have been great; but of the -seven deaths recorded, six came into the hospital in a dying state. -One, admitted November 25th, died five hours after admission; another, -admitted at noon, December 11th, died at half-past four a.m. next -morning; another, admitted on the 5th, died on the 6th; another, -admitted on September 19th, died on the 20th; other two rallied by -the administration of wine, sago, &c., but died from two to five days -after admission, again sinking. They received shelter and attention, -and had what chance there was of recovery; and some others, beyond -all reasonable expectation, recovered. The number of Kafir and -druggist-doctored patients thrown upon my hands in a moribund state -is great. Of the cases of fever that I attended throughout, most did -well. The hospital has been occupied somewhat more than three years and -a half, but I have held office as district surgeon in the service of -Government eight years and a half, and I speak of my experience during -the whole term of such service. - -In giving names to complaints, I have not set down diarrhœa or even -tænia, of which many instances have occurred, but these instances have -been incidental or symptomatic. Tænia has been discovered and treated -in cases of patients who had wounds, &c., and this frequently. There is -no complaint so generally prevalent among both natives and settlers. -The tapeworm of South Africa is about two-fifths in width† narrower -than that of Europe. The most effective treatment has been 1 1/2 oz. -sp. terebinth, early in the morning, and one drop of croton oil, or -a dose of other aperient medicine, four or five hours after, _nisi -prius soluta sit alvus_. A less dose than 1 1/2 oz. more disturbs the -system than this quantity, and fails to act. I procured some ethereal -extract of male fern in one case, of which I gave one scruple early in -the morning, and a black draught some hours after. It caused no nausea -or other apparent constitutional disturbance, and a piece of tapeworm -was expelled, still alive, which measured 22 feet long. Turpentine -generally expels them dead. - - † The English assumed as 1 in width, the South African 0·6. - -The fracture that ended fatally was a compound fracture of the left -thigh, and compound comminuted fracture of the tibia and fibula of the -right leg, from a waggon accident. He sunk at the end of two days, -never rallying from the shock to his system, and refusing to submit -to the not very hopeful operation of amputation of the more seriously -injured limb. I have had two cases of injury among the aborigines in -which amputation was necessary, one a little above the ancle, the -other four inches above the knee. In the latter case the leg had been -torn off by the machinery of a flour mill, the knee stripped of its -integuments, and the muscles above the knee stretched and contused, -so that I felt myself obliged to operate high up, lest a second -amputation should become requisite. The case occurred a few months ago. -Both cases did well. I have represented my wish in both cases that an -artificial leg and foot should be sent for to England, as it would be -a convenience to the parties, and also have a good sanitary and social -effect upon the natives. The cost of the cork or other artificial two -legs, black imitation toes inclusive, would not, I should think, exceed -30_l._ Their aversion to operations necessary to save life would thus -be in some measure overcome or lessened. - -The natives who have become Christians evince some of the -uncomfortableness and maladroitness that are incidental to a state -of transition, but, perhaps, less than might have been expected. The -premises I go upon are, perhaps, scanty and insufficient, but I am -inclined to think that among Christian Kafirs more children die in -infancy than among the unchristianized natives. This is not to be -depended upon, nor can I, generally speaking, say much that is definite -upon the subject of physical or other differences between Christian and -other natives. - -The natives hitherto, as the rule, have not shown the appetence for -alcohol which the North American Indians so early, and so fatally -for themselves, acquired. There are cases of elephantiasis among -them; they are subject to skin diseases. These and other trifling -diseases or cases of injury seldom appear at the hospital, or only as -accompaniments of injury or other disease. - -Prior to the completion and occupation of Grey’s hospital, a row of -cottages was rented as a hospital; prior to this the gaol and hospital -were under one roof. - - SAMUEL GOWER, M.R.C.S. Engl., &c. {56} - -_Change of Diet and irregular Habits._―There is one very striking -difference between the semi-civilized native and the one fresh from -his original habits and mode of life. The one is more subject to -inflammatory diseases than the other, from which the former does not so -readily recover as the latter. Wounds and injuries of a very serious -character readily admit of reparation; for instance, a native falls -on a stake, which penetrated (by the side of the “sphincter ani”) the -bladder; he walked 10 miles, and arrived at hospital with a pendulous -coagulum at the mouth of the urethra. The catheter was used; urine and -blood escaped, and continued to flow for a day or two; in a week he -returned home quite well. - -_Civilization increases the proneness to Disease and the facility -to succumb to its Power._―Skin diseases are more prevalent among -the natives than the settlers. Phthisis carries off a great number; -exposure to extremes is the cause. The subject requires to be treated -at full length. - - ED. W. HOLLAND, M.R.C.S. - - -MELBOURNE. VICTORIA. - -[Sidenote: Vide Return, p. 60.] - -Mr. Thomas, who has for 20 years been the guardian of the tribes -contiguous to Melbourne, furnishes a statement, showing during that -period 210 deaths as compared with 28 births, and, as he adds in a -note, that of the children born most died before the first month was -over, it cannot be expected that these tribes, now reduced to only 35 -individuals in all, will be long in existence. - -Making every allowance, indeed, for the effects of European vices, -and especially of intemperance, by which quarrels are fomented, and -exposure to cold and damp and disease produced, there is, it must be -confessed, something mysterious in that deterioration of the savage -which succeeds the introduction of civilization,—and which can hardly -be more forcibly described than in the language of the old man quoted -by Mr. Goodwin,―“before white fellow came, black fellow could run like -emu, but now supposing big one run, then big one tired, and plenty -heart jump about.” - -Physical prostration, in fact, seems to follow the attempt to imitate -the customs of civilized society; and, as I had abundant opportunity of -observing in British Guiana among the Indians, the wearing of clothes -and adoption of a more settled mode of life detracts from skill in -hunting or fishing without imparting sufficient knowledge of or taste -for agricultural pursuits to afford a livelihood in exchange. - - HENRY BARKLY. - - -1. Although the aborigines of this colony are liable to the usual -diseases of Europeans, I invariably found years back that they seldom -had the common diseases, as rheumatism, &c., &c., to the extent -Europeans have. Yet I may state, that eight-tenths of the mortality -amongst the aborigines of Victoria arises through intemperance, -bringing on pulmonary disorders, pleurisy, pneumonia, disorders of -the chest, consumption, &c., which carries them off so speedily that -the ablest medical treatment, when available, seldom saves them. I -may safely state that when their respiratory organs are once affected -recovery becomes hopeless. I have witnessed this so invariably within -the last 10 years, as to look forward for death as soon as they are -afflicted in the chest. - -2. The aborigines, however, were not so affected in their respiratory -organs years back as at present; they have only been carried off so -precipitately since they have become slaves to intoxicating liquors. I -have known blacks, years back, to labour under diseases of the lungs -for nine or more months, but now seldom so many weeks, and often not so -many days. - -3. There is a peculiarity even in their pulmonary disorders to the -European; there is not that straining distressing coughing which -Europeans labour under; the phlegm comes free without much exertion and -pain to the invalid, but accompanied with blood. - -4. Wounds of whatever kind which do not affect a vital part are -more readily cured than in white people. I have seen most desperate -wounds inflicted by their weapons, that would have kept Europeans -for months invalids, healed in an incredibly short time, and to the -astonishment of medical men. Wounds, whether by accident or otherwise, -are immediately attended to by their doctors; if in the fleshy part of -the body, they suck the blood from the wound, and continue sucking it -till blood ceases to be extracted. If little blood comes from {57} the -wound they know all is not right, and will put the patient to pain by -probing the wound with their lancet (a sharp bone), or place the body -or limb in that position as to compress the opposite part to force -blood. They know well the consequences of stagnant blood or matter, -especially in the upper parts of the body. When the wound is thoroughly -cleansed they leave the rest to nature, clap a lump of pidgerong (a -kind of wax oozing from trees) on the wound; should there follow a -gathering, they open the wound afresh, and see all right, and again -cover it over with the pidgerong or gum. - -5. _Rheumatism._―Their general remedy is friction. If very severe -about legs or thighs, the doctor gets a good mound prepared of ashes, -excavating the ground 18 inches, made solely from bark, which never has -any grit, but mere ash. If lumbago, the patient is laid on his stomach, -the doctor rubs most unmercifully the hot ashes on the part affected, -as a butcher would in salting meat; if in thighs or legs, the patient’s -feet are put into the mound of heated ashes, about half way up his -legs, where he sits whilst the doctor is rubbing the hot ashes on the -parts affected. During this process the doctor is incantating, blowing -occasionally a portion of dust into the air with a hissing noise. When -sufficiently operated upon, the invalid is wrapped up in his blanket. - -6. _Boils._―The blacks treat boils and swellings thus:—When hard, they -lotion the part well with decoction of wattle bark; when obstinate, -they boil wild marshmallow, and poultice; if the tumour softens and -does not break, they apply their sharp bone lancet. - -7. _Eruptions on the Skin._―The aborigines are deeply afflicted with -a disorder called by them bubberum, white men call it itch, but it -is in no way like it; it appears as a raised dark scab, and spreads, -joining each other, till it in severe cases covers almost all the lower -extremities. It seldom affects the head or upper parts, but I have -known it almost cover the thighs and downwards, so as to cause them -much difficulty in moving about. Their native cure for this distemper -is to grease the parts affected every night and morning with wheerup -(a red ochre) mixed with a decoction of wattle bark. I knew one -instance of this disease becoming most distressing to a white man in a -respectable position who was continually cohabiting with black lubras. - -8. _On Burns._―Through their imprudence and carelessness they often get -severe burns, which they cure by dabbing the parts over with melted -fat, afterwards dash the parts affected over with a pulp made of -oppossum fur and dust of the wheerup. - -9. _On Dysentery._―The aborigines of Australia are very subject to -dysentery, but not to the fatal extent as Europeans; their remedy -of this disorder is drinking plentifully a decoction of wattle bark -and eating gum through the day, and pills night and morning made by -themselves of wattle bark and gum. - -10. _Pains in the Head, Bilious, &c._―If of long standing, the patient -is compelled to lie on the back; the native doctor puts his foot on -the patient’s head above his neck as long as the patient can bear it, -till water literally gushes from the patient’s eyes. However rough this -treatment, I have known this operation to give relief, and the patient -cured. - -11. _Disorders of the Lungs, Spitting of Blood, &c._―The blacks study -much the colour of the spittle in those affected in the lungs, and -know well its stages. When the patient begins to spit blood, there is -much attention paid to him; should this increase, which generally is -the case, the native doctors have a consultation. When once the black -doctors hold a consultation, they will not let the patient take any -more medicine from the whites. The invalid is laid down on his back, -is held firm by three or more blacks, whilst the native doctor keeps -continually pressing with his feet, even to jump, on the patient’s -belly. I need scarcely state that this cruel practice brings on -premature death. - -12. _Venereal Disease._―Though this disease in the first instance -must have been contracted from the whites, the native doctors have -prescribed a cure, which, though simple, I have found efficacious. -They boil the wattle bark till it becomes very strong; they use it as -a lotion to the parts affected. I can state here from my own personal -knowledge of three Golburn blacks having this disease so deeply rooted -in them, that the then colonial surgeon, Dr. Cousin, on examining them -said life would not be saved unless they entered into the hospital, -and an operation performed, which they would not consent to. After -18 months these three blacks returned to Melbourne among the tribes -(two {58} were young, the other middle aged,) perfectly cured, and -the blacks assured me they had used only the wattle bark lotion. Dr. -Wilmot, our late coroner, also saw these three blacks whilst in this -state and after their soundness, and in his report upon the aborigines -stated “however violent this disease may appear among aborigines, -that it could not enter into their system as it did in European -constitutions.” - -13. In the aboriginal primitive state in times of sickness, as -influenza or other diseases prevalent, they invariably carried fire -about with them wherever they went; this was of bark only; a thick -bark, which they provided for the day’s journey. - -14. _Fevers._―The aboriginal doctors’ treatment in fevers is strictly -the cold water system; no matter what kind of fever it may be, cold -water is the remedy, accompanied with prohibition of animal food. The -doctors have a quantity of water by them, fill their mouths full, spurt -it from the mouth over the whole of the patient’s body, back and front, -and for a considerable time to the navel, then with their hands throw -it over the face and breast; then lay the patient on the back, breathe -and blow at the navel, incantating continually while operating. If the -patient be young, the doctor will carry him, and plunge him or her -into the creek or river. The adult patients will voluntarily, by the -assistance of their friends, plunge themselves in three or four times a -day. The blacks obstinately persist in this mode of treatment, although -they find generally death is the result. I was not a little surprised -to find many years back that this also was the mode of treatment among -the natives of the South Sea Islands. As soon as fever attacked them, -they crept to the banks of the Yarra, and plunged themselves in three -or more times a day, as the aboriginals of Australia. I was called to -witness their habits when a party of them were enticed over by the late -Mr. Boyd; they were located at Mr. Fennel’s (Mr. Boyd’s agent) by the -banks of the Yarra. - -15. I attach to this report on the diseases of the aborigines the -opinions of 29 gentlemen, situated in various parts of the colony, who -one and all bear testimony to the awful mortality amongst them. - - _Names._ _Diseases._ - - Mr. Orr Intemperance and venereal. - ″ Lane Scorbutic. - ″ Templeton Intemperance and venereal. - ″ Sherard Intemperance and exposure. - ″ Shuter Consumption and decline. - ″ Wilson Intemperance and exposure. - ″ Feskin Bronchitis, pericarditis, psoriasis, and intemperance. - ″ McLeod Intemperance and exposure. - ″ Ormond Consumption, venereal, and intemperance. - ″ Cook Syphilis. - ″ Aitkin Liver complaints; intemperance; rheumatism. - ″ Skene Syphilis, consumption, and rheumatism. - ″ Beveridge Pulmonary consumption and venereal. - ″ Allen Influenza. - ″ Craig Influenza, consumption, and intemperance. - ″ Gilles Intemperance. - ″ Strutt Intemperance and violence. - ″ J.

THOMAS, - Guardian of Aborigines. - - -{62} - -SOUTH AUSTRALIA - -Having travelled much in Australia, America, and the West Indies, -and having also resided on the Coast of Africa, where I penetrated -a considerable distance into the interior, traversing the countries -between the Gambia and the Senegal, and ascending the former river 600 -miles, I was consequently frequently brought into contact with numerous -aboriginal tribes of very different characters and descent, and under -varying physical and external circumstances. - -I have, however, never seen natives whose general habits and physical -conformation impressed me so completely with the idea of a perishable -and doomed race as the aborigines of the southern portion of this -continent. - -I may add that as I almost always find it necessary to release native -prisoners before the expiration of their sentences, because death -is apt to ensue from any prolonged confinement, I cannot but think -that even the partial confinement in schools injuriously affects the -native constitution, so nearly do they approximate to the lower animal -creation. - - RICHARD GRAVES MACDONNELL, - Governor. - - Adelaide, - Nov. 23, 1860. - - -The aboriginies of this colony (South Australia) have not a very wide -range of disease from which they suffer. - -I have never seen a case of small-pox, scarlet fever, measles, or -hooping cough, and I was officially connected with them for 18 years. - -Fever occurs, but not frequently, as they have no confined badly -ventilated dwellings. - -Diarrhœa and dysentery make their appearance in the hot weather, and -from five to ten per cent. of the cases prove fatal; these attacks -occur most frequently during dentition, as with the Europeans. - -The brain and nervous system are seldom attacked primarily. In their -native state they indulge in no stimulants, and are not guilty of -overtaxing their mental powers. - -Consumption is common amongst them; and in every death that I have -seen in the school children, there have been tubercular deposits in -the lungs. The same occurs in the adults who have been six months and -upwards confined in gaol; in fact, they cannot survive confinement in a -prison beyond two years. Confine them two years and they will waste and -die in a few months after liberation. - -The most fatal disease that has come under my notice is the venereal, -contracted by contact with the Europeans. Males and females suffer -alike from it, and die generally of secondary effects. - -As a race the aborigines are dying off and disappearing before a more -highly civilized people, and must eventually disappear altogether. The -venereal disease on the one hand, and the fact that the women are apt -to become prostitutes, and in consequence cease to bear children, on -the other, are reducing them at a very rapid rate. - - M. MOORHOUSE, - Late Protector of Aborigines. - - -It is universally admitted that they are fast decreasing in number, -and the cause of this decrease is attributed by most witnesses to -their partial assumption of semi-civilized habits; where formerly -they clothed themselves with the skins of animals taken in the chase, -contact with Europeans has so changed their habits that they now, in a -great measure, depend upon the scanty dole of blankets issued by the -Government, which supplies, it appears from evidence, have been most -irregular. Great suffering has been occasioned, especially among the -aged and infirm natives, by the insufficient and ill-timed supplies, -both of blankets and provisions. Disease appears to be induced by this -partial and irregular clothing; pulmonary complaints prevailed to a -fearful extent during last winter, aggravated by, if not entirely -attributable to, this cause. - -This decrease in their numbers is attributable to many causes:― - -1st. From infanticide, to a limited extent. - -2nd. From certain rites performed upon young men of some tribes, -impairing their physical powers. - -3rd. From the introduction among them by Europeans of a more aggravated -form of syphilis than was known to exist previous to our occupation of -the country. {63} - -4th. From the introduction and use of intoxicating liquors, a habit of -using which to excess is prevalent among the natives, who, despite of -existing laws to the contrary, are frequently aided by Europeans in -obtaining supplies. - -5th. From the promiscuous intercourse of the sexes. This is proved by -evidence to be carried to such an extent, not only between themselves, -but also with Europeans, as, in a great measure, of itself to account -for the infecundity of the race. - -6th. From the disproportion of sexes. - - GEO. HALL, Chairman. - - -WESTERN AUSTRALIA. - -The question raised by Miss Nightingale, “Can we civilize the -aborigines without killing them?” naturally arises from the fact that -wherever Europeans have taken possession of the country of savage -races, the latter have gradually disappeared before the face of the -“white man.” - -This state of things, I believe, may be traced to the three following -causes:― - -1st. The acquirement by the aborigines of the love for intoxicating -liquors. - -2nd. The immorality of the women with the “white man,” preventing their -bearing children. - -3rd. The introduction of diseases more fatal to them than to the -Europeans, arising from their exposed lives, and general objection to -submit themselves to proper medical treatment. - -It will thus be easily seen that the aborigines do not, in reality, -gradually disappear before the advantages of civilization, but rather -fall victims to the vices and diseases introduced by the advent of -unprincipled Europeans among them. - - JOHN FERGUSON, - Colonial Surgeon. - - Perth, Nov. 17, 1860. - - -It is quite certain that the natives die in quick succession in the -districts inhabited by Europeans, and it appears not less certain that -a great many of the deaths are attributable to their having lived -among us. But it is not civilization that has caused their deaths; -it is rather the vices of the Europeans which they have imbibed, and -the ignorance and recklessness of results in the natives themselves. -They are mere children in understanding, and if their present wants -are gratified they care not for the future. As an instance:—There is -a stringent law prohibiting the selling or giving intoxicating drinks -to them, but they willingly yield to the assistance offered to them -by unprincipled sailors and others to elude this law made for their -benefit. The men become intoxicated, and misery and wretchedness are -the consequences to a portion of their families, who die prematurely, -but not before their vicious habits have injured many besides -themselves. There are many individuals in all countries who neither -regard the laws of God nor man, and these unfortunate people might -have been of the number, even if they had been civilized, but the -probability is, that there would not have been so many victims if -they had been rescued as children, and been taught what was right and -really civilized. To live such a life as they now lead in towns among -Europeans is not being civilized. - -Not one of the Annesfield school children have ever shown the slightest -wish to return to the bush; and from their parents and other relatives -visiting them they have had opportunities enough to do so, if they had -chosen to go. They duly appreciate civilization, and it has not injured -the health of any of them, but, on the contrary, several that were ill -when they came have improved in health. - -It can scarcely be said that the civilization of the aborigines has -been attempted in Western Australia. Five or six schools have at -different times been established; some of these by private societies -or individuals, and the remainder by Government. But there has been -no organized system adopted, such as is necessary to the carrying out -any great work. How little can any single school do! In the Annesfield -Government Institution it has been the aim to prove that the natives -are capable of being made useful members of society, and, what is -more, that they are capable of understanding and embracing the great -truths of salvation; and the result is fully satisfactory. But this -institution is limited to 24 children. - -The aborigines are like so much material without capital or tools -to fashion it. For in a country such as this, where there are so -many profitable {64} ways of employing money and labour, few can be -found willing to furnish either of these requisites for this work -of benevolence and unsought justice. It is said that nothing can be -effected among the adult natives. But the colony has now been in the -possession of the English 31 years, and if the then parents had been -induced to give up their children for training, or even if they had -given them up three or four years after, when they had got to know us -as a friendly people, there would now be few of them in the settled -districts but such as would have had the opportunity of being civilized. - - ANNE CAMFIELD. - - -CEYLON. - -In reply to Miss Nightingale’s question, “Whether we can civilize the -native people without killing them?” it is gratifying to be able to -assure her, that in Ceylon the native population, both of Singhalese -and Tamil race, instead of declining and dying off before the European -settlers, is rapidly increasing, and that the number both of our -schools and scholars would be far greater than it is, if only we had -the means of maintaining them at command. - - J. COLOMBO. - -The steady increase of population, however, except perhaps in the -remotest districts, which education in any form has not yet reached, -inclines me to believe that schools, whether conducted on the native -or English systems, have proved an unqualified benefit to the people, -and that, instead of inducing or extending disease of any kind, many of -those enumerated in Miss Nightingale’s list being unknown in Ceylon, -they have, by even temporarily withdrawing those who by reason of their -tender age are most subject to the injurious consequences of bad habits -and premature exertion, secured for them a remarkable immunity from the -prevailing diseases of the country for the remainder of their lives. - - C. P. LAYARD, Govt. Agent. - - -[Sidenote: See Tables V. and W., pp. 50 and 51.] - -The principal civil medical officer has prepared returns to show the -diseases of the Singhalese and mixed races, and of the Malabars. The -deaths among the latter are in the proportion of 20 per cent. against -8 per cent. among the former. This remarkable disproportion in the -mortality may be accounted for by the starving condition in which -the Malabar coolies generally arrive in this colony; their uncleanly -habits; their abstinence from animal food, and, as a consequence, -the low standard of their vital organization; and exposure without -sufficient clothing in the cold climate of the hills. They sink rapidly -under attacks of diarrhœa, dysentery, and anasarca. - -The diseases which are most prevalent and fatal among the native races -are such as are incidental to this climate, viz., fever, chiefly of -the intermittent type, bowel complaints, and anasarca, while cases -of scrofula and consumption, to which Miss Nightingale alludes as -prevalent “among those converted to Christian civilization,” are -happily seldom met with. - -The Commission states, in reply to Miss Nightingale’s question, “Can -we civilize these people without killing them?” that those diseases -which are supposed to be attendant on European civilization are not -common among the native inhabitants of the colony, and that, so far -from the natives dying out before the march of civilization, the native -population is on the increase in the neighbourhood of the larger towns, -while it is only in the remote and less civilized districts that -the population is decreasing, and this from causes which are being -gradually removed by the spread of education. - - C. J. MAC CARTHY - - -It will doubtless be satisfactory to Miss Nightingale to learn that -scrofula and consumption are not common diseases among the native -inhabitants of the colony, and that, so far from the efforts made to -civilize the people having the effect of causing the extinction of the -native races in this colony, the natives in the neighbourhood of the -larger towns are rapidly increasing in numbers, while in some of the -remoter districts where schools are as yet unknown the population is -decreasing. Amongst the causes of this decrease may be mentioned the -hateful practice of polyandry, now happily forbidden by law, and the -want of proper sustenance, the result partly of imperfect means of -cultivation. A better state of things is gradually being brought about -by {65} the spread of education, and by this very civilization which -is said to be likely to cause the extinction of the native races. - - J. F. DICKSON. - - -_Remarks by the Rev. Mr. Ondoatjee._ - - -MATURA. - -In reference to the reasons which induced Miss Nightingale to enter on -the present field of inquiry, it may be stated that the conversion of -the natives of this island to Christianity, so far from its exerting -any fatal or injurious effect on health and life, has vastly improved -their condition socially as well as physically. Christian civilization -is doing much for them; and the only hope we have of raising the people -from that state of moral degradation in which they are found throughout -the country is by imparting to them the knowledge of Christian truth, -which never fails to produce the happiest effects on their habits of -life in general, though it may occasionally happen, that by intercourse -with foreigners, vices inimical to longevity are learnt by the -aborigines. On the whole, however, it cannot for a moment be doubted -that it is to the introduction of Christianity, and, along with it, of -European science and European literature, that we have to look for the -gradual amelioration of the condition of the races that inhabit this -island; and, consequently, it appears to me that no effort should be -spared to extend the benefits of a sound Christian education (giving -it as much as possible a practical tone and character) throughout the -length and breadth of this beautiful and interesting country. It must -be admitted that there has been but little done as yet in the island in -the way of Christian civilization; but those who are in a position to -compare the state of things at present with what it was 20 or 30 years -ago admit that there are signs of progress to be seen in various parts -of the island, and surely this as a ground of encouragement is not to -be despised or underrated. - - W. C. MACREADY, - Acting Asst. Agent. - - Matura, 20th December 1860. - - -MAURITIUS. - -[Sidenote: Vide Tables T. and U., pp. 48 and 49.] - -This return contains the numbers of admissions to, deaths and -discharges from, the civil hospital, during the last six years, of the -creoles and Indians, which may be taken to represent the aboriginal -population of this island, although few, except the creoles, are really -natives. It will be seen that the rate of deaths is very large, and -this, without explanation, might give rise to false inference as to -the healthfulness of the island. The general death rate of the Indians -throughout the island for 1859 was 25 per 1,000, or only 2 per 1,000 -above that of all England for 1858; and, when it is considered that -all, or almost all, the Indians are agricultural labourers or servants, -and from the nature of their labour much exposed to casualties, such a -death rate points to Mauritius as (what it is) an exceedingly healthy -locality. Why then so large a mortality as 22 per cent. in the civil -hospital? The answer is readily given by the fact that the same -prejudice against hospitals exists among the Indians and creoles here -as among the poorer classes in England, but in an exaggerated degree, -and consequently that a very large proportion of absolutely hopeless -cases are admitted; so much is this the case, that in 1860, out of 696 -deaths, no less than 108 died within 24 hours after admission, and -nearly one-half of the deaths occurred within the first week. - -In this return two epidemics of cholera are included; one of very -severe character in 1856, and a smaller one in 1859, which carried -off above 306 patients. The most fatal diseases, it will be seen, are -dysentery, diarrhœa, phthisis, dropsy, and fever. The greater number -of the cases of dysentery admitted are old worn-out cases in the -last stage of emaciation, filth, and misery; many of them abandoned -by their friends, picked up by the police, and brought into hospital -to die. The greater part of the cases entered as diarrhœa in former -years were undoubtedly either dysentery or phthisis; the latter is -as prevalent (if not more so) among all classes of inhabitants as in -England. The cases of dropsy depend on the same causes as in Europe, -but many cases are seen which present scarcely any morbid change in -any of the organs. Fever is of very low type, and true typhus and -typhoid are not unfrequent. Although many of the Indians and creoles -are habitual drunkards, cases of delirium tremens are very rare. -Leprosy is a frequent and fearful disease among creoles and Indians, -but the frequency is not shown in the return, as, until {66} lately, -all the cases of leprosy were sent to a ward for that purpose in the -lunatic asylum. This disease rarely occurs among Europeans arrived from -Europe, it is more frequent among creoles of European parents born in -the island, and very much more so among the mixed African race and the -Indians. Tetanus, both traumatic and idiopathic, occurs very much more -frequently than in Europe. - - P. B. AYRES, M.D. Lond., - Surgeon in charge. - - Civil Hospital, Port Louis, - 22d June 1861. - - -CANADA. - -Diseases of malarious origin are most numerous among Indians as well -as whites, the former comparing favourably with the latter as far as -health is concerned. - - R. H. DEE, M.D. - - -MANITOWANING. - -[Sidenote: Vide Tables X. and Y. pp. 52 and 53.] - -As regards the diseases it is easy to perceive that some predominate -over others; for instance, chronicus rheumatismus, worms, porrigo, -bronchitis chronica, phthisis pulmonalis, and others. These, of course, -in a great measure originate from the careless and dirty habits of the -semi-civilized Indians, along with their daily exposure to all sorts -of weather without having different clothing to wear in winter from -that which they have been in the habit of using during the summer; in -addition to which, their living principally upon corn and potatoes -(fish not always being procurable), which induces the production of -worms, and at the same time being a sort of food very unsuitable for -children. Scrofula is universal amongst them, and in a great measure -is produced from their near intermarriages; and it is quite a common -circumstance for a boy of 16 or 17 to marry a girl of the same age, -and very often much younger; hence the offspring of such parents -must necessarily be weak and degenerate, and in consequence of their -hereditary debility more liable to the attacks of illness. Again, those -Indians uncivilized living at a great distance in the interior, and -who come down occasionally to trade with the Hudson’s Bay Company, I -have always been given to understand were for the most part generally -healthy, much more so than those of the semi-civilized tribes. I myself -have had but little communication with them, as they seldom visit our -island, but the officers of the Company’s service, with whom I have -become acquainted, have always expressed but one opinion upon the -subject. - - DAVID LAYTON. - - -In running over the diseases for the last five years, many cases of -common occurrence, not of dangerous or severe nature, are omitted, -from the fact that no particular inventory was required, so that the -enclosed number of cases are merely taken at the time of attendance -from their symptoms and necessity for peculiar or active treatment. - -You are aware that the Savnia Indians are principally Christians, or -call themselves such, although living in a half-civilized state. For -one portion of the year they are living in warm comfortable houses, -while provisions and the necessaries of life are easily procured by -them; during this period they are happy and contented, little sickness -prevailing. The other portion of the year, from a peculiar propensity, -I suppose inherent in the race, _they take to the bush_, while their -living in wigwams, scant of clothing, provisions hard to be obtained, -exposed to all the vicissitudes of climate, wet feet, &c., as a natural -consequence _intermittents, remittent, and other fevers, rheumatism, -laryngitis, bronchitis, pleurisy, pneumonia, phthisis pulmonalis, -follow invariably_. - -_Their diversity of diet_ and method of living has a most pernicious -influence in causing dyspepsia, worms, and most other ills to which -the alimentary canal is liable, while congestion of liver, lungs, and -irritation of bladder are of very frequent occurrence in a mild form; -_from this cause_ the whole tribe suffer, even to children of a year -old. - -What may have been their ailments while in a heathen state I cannot -say, not being in attendance on them, but from what I hear of the -number of deaths at that period, from variola before the introduction -of vaccination, exposure, scant clothing and diet, and changes of -climate, &c., it must have been enormous; to draw any definite result -or give an average of deaths from their former and present mode of -living would be impossible on my part. The few families of {67} -_Christian Indians_ on the reserve who live as _whites_ are just as -healthy, and increase in numbers equally, while the whole tribe, as -they are at present, increase yearly. - - THOMAS W. JOHNSTON, M.D., - Savnia, C. W. - - -NEW ZEALAND. - -As to the sanitary state of the native population, I regret to state, -not only from the information of several gentlemen with whom during -my mission I had an opportunity of conversing, but also from personal -observation and inquiry, that they are by no means in that healthy -state which one would be led to expect when compared with the advance -they have made in other respects. In the former it would appear that -they are retrograding, and this decline is especially visible in -and near the European towns, and easily attributable to causes, the -prevalence of which is more or less detrimental to any body of persons, -but felt in a greater degree in a mixed community of Europeans and -natives. In illustration of this, I may mention the comparatively few -births, while from the census it will be seen that a greater equality -of the sexes prevails than was generally believed to be the case -throughout the entire districts; and perhaps, therefore, the most -favourable conclusion to form is, that the native population is not -increasing, or, in other words, that, taking the deaths and births -into account, it is likely to remain stationary for some time to come, -unless swept off by some unusual and fatal disease. - - H. TACY KEMP, - Native Secretary. - - Wellington, - 15 June 1850. - - - LONDON - - Printed by GEORGE E. EYRE and WILLIAM SPOTTISWOODE, - Printers to the Queen’s most Excellent Majesty. - - - - -TRANSCRIBER’S NOTE - -Scanned page images of the original book are available from -archive.org, search for sanitarystatisti00nigh. Original spelling and -grammar are generally retained, with a few exceptions noted below. -Original page numbers look like this: {35}. Footnotes are left near -their original locations. The transcriber produced the cover image -by editing the original, and hereby places it in the public domain. -Quotations extending through more than one line of text were printed -with a left-quotation mark at the head of each line. These have been -converted to modern quotation style. Ditto marks have been sometimes -removed, by replacement of the mark with appropriate text. The book -was printed with sidenotes, many which pointed to a specific table in -Appendix I. Those which were semantically headings, were converted to -headings. - -Page 14. Comma was inserted after _personal_, in “the improved personal -physical, and moral habits”. - -Page 20. Table A, which originally spread in small print over about -6 1/2 pages, was split into three distinct tables (A1–A3), on the -Colony Headings in Column 1. Sub-table A1 comprises Colonies Sierra -Leone, Western Australia, and Natal. Sub-table A2 covers Ceylon. -Sub-table A3 covers Canada. Then each of the three sub-tables was split -into two Parts after column 13, with the first column repeated in each -Part. - -Page 26. Table A. a. was split into two parts after column 11, -repeating the first column in both parts. - -Page 29. Table G. was split into two parts after column 11, -repeating the first column in both parts. - -Page 30. Table H was split into three tables, (H1–H3), on the Colony -headings in column 1, the headings being the same as for Table A, see -above. Then each sub-table was split after column 7, repeating column 1 -in both Parts. - -Page 36. In Table H, there are five succussive rows headed by -_Milagria_ _Dehiwella_, _Attidiya vernacular school_, _Weligampittia_, -and _Dandogame_. In column five, the corresponding entries were 5,″, -- -, ″, and ″, respectively. In this edition, the spaced hyphens have -been converted to an em dash, and the three ditto marks are made “5”. -There is ample room for debate about this judgment, however. - -Page 40. Tables I and K each had three tall RIGHT CURLY BRACKETs -intended to combine the information in two or three table cells. This -edition removes the brackets, and combines the information into one -cell per bracket, by the use of the word _or_. Other tables containing -tall brackets were handled in the same way. ¶ Furthermore, in Table -K, in the second column opposite _Rheumatismus acutus or Rheumatismus -chronicus_, there were three spaced hyphens; also in the last row, -2nd column. The rest of the data in columns 2–4 were either numbers -or em dashes. The meaning of the spaced hyphens is not clear to the -transcriber, and all such, even in other tables, have been converted to -em dashes. - -Page 41. Table L was split into two parts after column 13, retaining -the first column in both parts. Same for Table P, page 44, and for -Table R, page 46, and for Table T, page 48. - -Page 50. Table V, column 2, opposite _Chest diseases_, changed “20 7” -to “20·7”. Also split the table same as for L, P, R, and T. Table X, -page 52, was also split. - -Page 59. In the table, _Phthsis_ was changed to _Phthisis_. - -Page 65. There is in the printed book a centered heading in italics -“_Remarks by the Rev. Mr. Ondoatjee._” The sidenote adjacent to -the paragraph following is “MATURA.” There is no other mention of -“Ondoatjee” in the book. Without understanding the significance of -this reference to “Ondoatjee”, the transcriber has made both of these -headings of the same level (h3 in html code). - -Page 66. In the sidenote, _MANATOWANING_ was changed to _MANITOWANING_. -Also, _ana verage_ was changed to _an average_. - - - - - - -End of the Project Gutenberg EBook of Sanitary Statistics of Native Colonial -Schools and Hospitals, by Florence Nightingale - -*** END OF THIS PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK SANITARY STATISTICS *** - -***** This file should be named 52653-0.txt or 52653-0.zip ***** -This and all associated files of various formats will be found in: - http://www.gutenberg.org/5/2/6/5/52653/ - -Produced by MWS, RichardW, and the Online Distributed -Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net (This file was -produced from images generously made available by The -Internet Archive/American Libraries.) - - -Updated editions will replace the previous one--the old editions will -be renamed. - -Creating the works from print editions not protected by U.S. copyright -law means that no one owns a United States copyright in these works, -so the Foundation (and you!) can copy and distribute it in the United -States without permission and without paying copyright -royalties.

Many small donations -($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt -status with the IRS. - -The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating -charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United -States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a -considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up -with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations -where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND -DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular -state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate - -While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we -have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition -against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who -approach us with offers to donate. - -International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make -any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from -outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. - -Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation -methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other -ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To -donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate - -Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works. - -Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project -Gutenberg-tm concept of a library of electronic works that could be -freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and -distributed Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of -volunteer support. - -Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed -editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in -the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not -necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper -edition. - -Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search -facility: www.gutenberg.org - -This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, -including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary -Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to -subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. - diff --git a/old/52653-0.zip b/old/52653-0.zip Binary files differdeleted file mode 100644 index d5f5b61..0000000 --- a/old/52653-0.zip +++ /dev/null diff --git a/old/52653-h.zip b/old/52653-h.zip Binary files differdeleted file mode 100644 index 97d31ce..0000000 --- a/old/52653-h.zip +++ /dev/null diff --git a/old/52653-h/52653-h.htm b/old/52653-h/52653-h.htm deleted file mode 100644 index 0f4a332..0000000 --- a/old/52653-h/52653-h.htm +++ /dev/null @@ -1,14438 +0,0 @@ -<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" - "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> - - <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" - xml:lang="en" lang="en"> - -<head> - <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8" /> - - <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1" /> - <!--helps display html correctly in mobile devices--> - - <meta http-equiv="Content-Style-Type" content="text/css" /> - - <title> - Sanitary Statistics of Native Colonial Schools and Hospitals, - by Florence Nightingale;

It is to show that when the -Colonial Office, with great labour and no little cost, has -collected, and I, with the same, have reduced these materials, -they are incapable of giving all the beneficial -information expected. The material does not exist, or, if -it does, it is in a very <i>undeveloped</i> state. Such as it is, I -have tried to do the best I could with it. And this is the -result.</p> - -<p>Several years ago, before Sir George Grey returned to -his government at the Cape, I had a conversation with -him on a subject which had dwelt very much on his mind, -viz., the gradual disappearance of the aboriginal races -from the neighbourhood of civilized communities. One -of the points raised in the discussion was the probable -effect which European school usages and school education -might exercise on the health of the children of parents -and of races who had never hitherto been brought under -education.</p> - -<div class="psidenote dwtha"><h3 class="h3side">Colonial -school returns.</h3></div> - -<p>It appeared of great importance to ascertain, if possible, -the precise influence which school training exercised on -the health of native children. And I applied to the -Colonial Office for aid in carrying out such an inquiry. -The Duke of Newcastle entered warmly into the subject, -and offered at once to call for any information which -might throw light on it. I had a simple school form -prepared and printed, copies of which were sent by the -Colonial Office to the Governors of the various colonies. -Returns were made from a large number of schools, but -as no information has been received from many more, I -presume the school statistics did not afford the means of -supplying the required information. <span class="xxpn" id="p004">{4}</span></p> - -<p>I have received, through the Colonial Office, filled up -returns from 143 schools, in Ceylon, Australia, Natal, West -Coast of Africa, British North America, the results of -which are given in the accompanying series of tables.</p> - -<div class="psidenote dwtha">pp. -<a class="apglk" href="#p020" title="go to page 020">20</a> to 26.</div> - -<p>Table A. gives the name and date of opening of each -school, the numbers of years included in the Return, the -average number of native children, their sexes and ages -for quinquennial periods, together with the mortality for -the period included in the return. The results of this -table for all the colonial schools are given in the reduction -Table A. a., which states the total average attendance -for all the schools in each colony, together with the total -deaths, arranged in quinquennial periods, so far as it could -be done. This table merely gives the general numerical -results; but as the periods vary considerably it has been -necessary to reduce the data under one common denomination, -to obtain the absolute annual rate of mortality. -This has been done in the Tables B, C, D, E, F, which -show the years of life and the mortality for each sex and -age.</p> - -<div class="psidenote dwtha">p. -<a class="apglk" href="#p026" title="go to page 26">26 </a>.</div> - -<p>Table A. a. shows that the average attendance of all -ages at these schools has been 7,485 boys, and 2,453 -girls, making a total of 9,938 as the number of children on -whom the rate of mortality has been obtained. A small -proportion of these children, only 672 boys and 422 girls, -were under 5 years of age. There were 3,546 (2,651 -boys and 895 girls) between the ages of 5 and 10. -Between the ages of 10 and 15 there were 3,268 children, -viz., 2,288 boys, and 980 girls. At the age of 15 and -upwards there were 1,391 boys, and only 156 girls, -attending school.</p> - -<p>The total deaths, for the various periods, on this school -attendance were 451 boys and 132 girls, of all ages, besides -79 boys and 39 girls who are returned as leaving -school <i>annually</i> to die at home. It is important to remark -that, out of a total average school attendance of 9,938, -only 235 boys and 82 girls are stated to leave school -annually from ill-health.</p> - -<div class="psidenote dwtha">pp. -<a class="apglk" href="#p027" title="go to page 27">27</a>, 28.</div> - -<p>The relative mortality of boys and girls attending these -schools is shown by Tables B. to F.</p> - -<p>The death rate, it will be observed, varies considerably -in different colonies. It is least among the native children -at Natal, where a little more than five males per -1,000 and three females per 1,000 die annually. The -Ceylon schools give a death rate of -14 <sup>1</sup>⁄<sub>2</sub> -per 1,000 per -<span class="xxpn" id="p005">{5}</span> -annum for boys and about 3 per 1,000 per annum for -girls. But, including deaths among children who leave -school to die at home, this rate would be nearly doubled.</p> - -<p>The Indian schools in Canada afford a total annual -death rate of 12 <sup>1</sup>⁄<sub>2</sub> -per 1,000 for both sexes; but the -mortality of girls is nearly double that of boys.</p> - -<p>The Sierra Leone schools afford a very high rate of -mortality, viz., 20 per 1,000 for males, and 35 per 1,000 -for females.</p> - -<p>The Western Australian schools yield the highest -death rate of any, nearly 35 per 1,000 for boys and 13 -per 1,000 for girls.</p> - -<p>These death rates are of course only approximations -to the truth. But on any supposition they are very high.</p> - -<p>It is important to compare these death rates with those -of children of the same ages at home. But we have only -the means of doing so for 5 years of age and onwards. -The home rates are given in Table E., which shows that -from 5 to 10 the total mortality of both sexes is 9·2 per -1,000 at home. From 10 to 15 it is 5·3 per 1,000. Above -15 the home mortality is 8·4 per 1,000. Making allowance -for native children dying at home, we shall be within -the truth in assuming the mortality of native children at -school as double that of English children of the same ages.</p> - -<div class="psidenote dwtha">Table G, -p. <a class="apglk" href="#p029" title="go to page 29">29</a>.</div> - -<p>The next point of the inquiry is to ascertain the nature -of the fatal diseases. And here we find a remarkable -difference in the returns from different colonies. Thus -out of 190 deaths in the Sierra Leone schools, all except -8 are due to small pox, measles, and hooping cough, -scarlet fever, and other forms of fever.</p> - -<p>In the Ceylon schools these same diseases, with the -addition of diarrhœa, dysentery, and cholera, give rise to -261 deaths out of a total mortality of 341. In contrast -with this great prevalence of miasmatic diseases, the -West Australian schools yield only 2 deaths from children’s -epidemics, out of a total mortality of 9.</p> - -<p>In the Natal schools three children died of miasmatic -diseases out of a total mortality of 16, while in the -Canadian schools there is only one miasmatic death out -of a total mortality of 27.</p> - -<p>The adult natives at many of the colonies are considered -specially subject to tubercular diseases, more particularly -consumption. This class of diseases is indeed -supposed to be a main cause of the gradual decline and -disappearance of uncivilized or semi-civilized races. <span class="xxpn" id="p006">{6}</span></p> - -<p>The facts, as regards these colonial schools, are as -follow:―</p> - -<p>Amongst the Sierra Leone children there is only one -death from consumption and one from scrofula reported -out of a total of 190 deaths. In the West Australian -schools two of the nine deaths arose from consumption. -In the Natal schools there was one death from consumption -and one from scrofula out of 16 deaths. But there -died seven children of other chest diseases besides consumption. -The Ceylon schools yielded seven deaths from -consumption, five from other chest diseases, and one from -scrofula, out of a total mortality of 341.</p> - -<div class="psidenote dwtha">Table S, -p.<a class="apglk" href="#p047" title="go to page 47">47</a>.</div> - -<p>These figures, so far as they go, show comparatively -little liability to consumptive diseases among children in -these colonies. But there is a native training institution -in South Australia, in which a very large proportion of -the mortality is due to tubercular diseases. Scrofula, -phthisis, and hæmoptysis are returned as having occasioned -69·6 per cent. of the total mortality in the institution, -among males, and 61·9 per cent. among females. -When we cross over to Canada we find that, out of a total -mortality of 27, 16 deaths arose from consumption and -five from scrofula. Indeed all the specified deaths arose -from tubercular disease except one solitary death from -fever.</p> - -<p>I will next describe shortly the method of the school -education, with its probable influence on the children’s -health.</p> - -<div class="psidenote dwtha">pp. -<a class="apglk" href="#p030" title="go to page 30">30</a> to 39.</div> - -<p>The facts under this head are given in the form of notes -to each school return. I have had them thrown together, -for the sake of comparison, in Table H., the general -results of which are as follow.</p> - -<p>Many of the school houses are described in the returns -as of bad construction, and ill situated for health, -and the ventilation very insufficient. Some of them are -unfavourably situated for free external ventilation, or -their local position is damp and subject to malaria, the -results of which, as well as the results of general defective -sanitary condition in their vicinity are evidenced by the -great prevalence of miasmatic diseases, such as fevers, -diarrhœa, dysentery, and even cholera, among the children.</p> - -<p>The period of tuition varies considerably, from two up -to ten or more years. The school instruction is generally -five; in a few cases, six days a week. At a few stations <span class="xxpn" id="p007">{7}</span> -nearly half the year is allowed for holidays. But generally -the holidays are from two to six or eight weeks.</p> - -<p>In most of the schools there seem to be no play hours -on school days. When play hours are allowed these are -from half an hour to two hours. At about a dozen schools -only is there any out-door work combined with instruction. -The largest amount of this work is given in the -Natal and Canadian schools. Out of the whole number -there are only nine schools at which there is any attempt -made at combining the elements of physical education -with the school instruction, and even where this is done -the measure is partial and inefficient, being confined to a -few exercises or simply to bathing. The obvious physiological -necessity of engrafting civilized habits on uncivilized -races gradually through the means of systematic -physical training appears to be nowhere recognized, except -at New Norcia (Benedictine) school, Western Australia, -on the return from which there is the following very important -statement:―Gymnastics are stated to be necessary -to prevent sickness, and the reporter proceeds, “The -idea of bringing savages from their wild state at once -to an advanced civilization serves no other purpose -than that of murdering them.” And the result of the -out-door training practised at this school is said to have -been hitherto successful “in preventing the destructive -effects of this error.”</p> - -<div class="psidenote dwtha">Appendix II. -p. -<a class="apglk" href="#p062" title="go to page 62">62</a>.</div> - -<p>Confinement appears to be peculiarly injurious to the -aborigines of South Australia, for the Governor states -that he “almost always finds it necessary to release prisoners -before the expiration of their sentences, as death -is apt to ensue from any prolonged confinement.” -Even partial confinement in schools, he thinks, injuriously -affects the native constitution.</p> - -<p>Another very important observation bearing on the -necessity of careful consideration of habits is recorded on -the return from one of the Natal schools. It might be -supposed that one of the most obvious duties in bringing -native children to school would be to clothe them, but -nevertheless clothing an uncivilized child requires -<span class="nowrap">care.<a class="fnanch" href="#fnlabel-1" id="fnanch-1">†</a></span> -In their natural state they expose themselves to torrents -of rain which, runs off them, and they are easily warmed <span class="xxpn" id="p008">{8}</span> -and dried at the hut fire. But it is stated that, when -clothed in flannel and jersey, they get chilled by the rain, -and that pulmonary diseases ensue as a consequence.</p> - -<div class="dfootnote"> -<a class="fnlabel" href="#fnanch-1" id="fnlabel-1">†</a> -People have been asked to assist in making -clothing for the Kaffir -tribes whom missionaries were going out to address, -that the feeling of decency might not be offended in -addressing the naked. -</div> - -<p>The method of conducting colonial schools appears to -be based on our home system, without reference to -physical training or other local conditions affecting health. -This fact, together with the high rate of mortality, is -the most prominent result of our inquiry. And although -there is not sufficient evidence to show to what extent the -school education increases the mortality, there is strong -reason to believe that it is a cause. By far the greater -part of the mortality is the direct result of mitigable or -preventible diseases.</p> - -<p>In all the schools within or near the tropics the miasmatic -class of diseases occasions most of the mortality at -the earlier periods of life. A considerable proportion -arises from small-pox, showing bad management of children, -and that vaccination is either neglected or imperfectly -performed. The other fatal diseases are mainly -those which in this country are connected with bad drainage, -deficient and bad water supply, overcrowding, and -want of sufficient house accommodation and cleanliness. -In the Canadian schools consumption and scrofula appear -to occupy the place of miasmatic diseases.

To -the extent to which the data are imperfect, the results are -of course unreliable. The numbers are often much -smaller than are required for such purposes. I have used -them because the best obtainable, even with the assistance -of the colonial governments; and the first lesson they -teach is the necessity for assimilating the colonial registration -and vital statistics to those at home. But, with -all their defects, when these statistics are examined, they -bring clearly into light certain great general facts.</p> - -<p>As regards the schools, they show us that the educational -idea in the colonies is just as deficient as it is at -home, and that it is attended with worse physical consequences.</p> - -<p>No account appears to be taken of the past history of -the races on whom it is desired to confer the inestimable -blessings of Christian civilization. Our teachers go among -them just as they would into English villages. They -collect the children who, together with their ancestors, -have spent most of their existence in active out-door -habits, into all classes of structures, good, bad, and indifferent, -apparently without regard to the effect of local -conditions on their health. In all probability the children -are set together as close as they are placed in one of our -Home “Model Schools,” without any reference to children’s -epidemics or other fevers. This is not done without great -risk, even with children of English birth. But to do this -with children taken from their open air habits in uncivilized -or semi-civilized communities is to incur the immediate -danger of losing the most hopeful pupils by diseases, -which, under a more rational system, might in all probability -be avoided.</p> - -<p>The education appears to be confined simply to head-work, -and no provision is made for sustaining the health -by physical training, while it is in danger of exhaustion -by a cerebral stimulus, perhaps applied for the first time -in the history of the family from which the child has -sprung. It is true that cerebral disease forms only a -small part of the school mortality; but the diseases from -which the mortality proceeds in the tropical schools are <span class="xxpn" id="p014">{14}</span> -the result of overcrowding, defective ventilation, and other -local sanitary evils, all of which are augmented by sedentary -occupation.</p> - -<p>The remedy for this is obviously to improve the school-houses, -to give more attention to space, to ventilation, -and to the locality where the school is placed, and above -all to make physical training an essential and important -part of the school system, never forgetting that the habits -of generations cannot be suddenly broken through without -danger to health and life.</p> - -<p>In as far as concerns the effect of the schools on the -disappearance of native races, the returns contain no appreciable -evidence. Education, if properly conducted, -together with the improved personal, physical, and moral -habits consequent on it, ought everywhere to be conservative -and not destructive; but to be so it should be -conducted, as already stated, with a full knowledge of the -physiological effects of altered habits and the influence of -these on health.</p> - -<p>The hospital returns, so far as they can be relied on, -show in the tropical colonies a large mortality from diseases -arising from bad drainage, bad water, imperfect agriculture, -want of cleanliness, and from other bad habits. Bad, -overcrowded, unventilated dwellings must also in these -colonies, as at home, bear their proportion of the blame. -Thus mortality arising from mitigable or preventible -causes of an external nature occasions in all the colonies -by far the greatest part of the death rate in hospitals. -Incivilization with its inherent diseases, when brought into -contact with civilization without adopting specific precautions -for preserving health, will always carry with it a -large increase of mortality on account of the greater susceptibility -of its subjects to those causes of disease which -can to a certain extent be endured without as great a risk -by civilized communities born among them.</p> - -<p>The hospital returns throw little light on the causes -of the disappearance of native races, unless these are to be -found in the great prevalence of tubercular and chest -diseases in certain of the colonies. This is especially -remarkable in the returns from Australia, Kaffraria, and -Canada. But why this class of affections should be so -much more prevalent in the temperate than in the tropical -colonies could only be ascertained by careful local inquiry. -One thing is certain that, in those colonies from which -complaints of the disappearance of native races have come, <span class="xxpn" id="p015">{15}</span> -tubercular and chest diseases appear to occasion the largest -amount of hospital mortality.</p> - -<p>The discovery of the causes of this must be referred back -to the colonies. Anything which exhausts the constitution; -above all things, foul air during sleep, will engender -these diseases. Open locality, healthy winds, active daily -occupation, are by themselves no safeguards, if the nights -be spent in unventilated cabins. The Alpine climates of -Europe are known to be the most free of any climates -from this tribe of diseases. But even on their healthy -mountain slopes scrofula in all its forms prevails among -the peasants, engaged during summer on the high pastures, -when they pass their nights in the close unhealthy chalets -there.</p> - -<p>It is possible that a tubercular taint so engendered may -be the cause of the whole evil, and it is to this point that -the inquiry has brought us.</p> - -<hr class="hr16" /> - -<p>Appended to the school and hospital returns from each -colony, there are very interesting notes, giving generally -the impression of the reporters on the nature and causes -of disease among the aboriginal population. These notes, -the chief portions of which I have appended, confirm the -statistical evidence; but they afford little additional light -on the causation.</p> - -<p>The decaying races are chiefly in Australia, New Zealand, -Canada, and perhaps in certain parts of South Africa. -They appear to consist chiefly of tribes which have never -been civilized enough or had force of character enough to -form fixed settlements or to build towns. Such tribes -have few fixed habits or none. But the papers show that -they are naturally, in their uncivilized condition, possessed -of far stronger stamina, and that they resist the effects of -frightful wounds and injuries far better than civilized men. -This latter fact tells strongly against any natural proclivity -to diseased action. But we nevertheless see that -when they come in contact with civilized men, and are, -as a necessary consequence, obliged to conform themselves -to a certain extent to the vices and customs of their -<i>civilized</i> -<span class="nowrap">(<i>!</i>)</span> -neighbours, they perish from disease.</p> - -<div class="psidenote dwtha">Appendix -II., pp. -<a class="apglk" href="#p062" title="go to page 62">62</a>–3.</div> - -<p>The evidence contained in these notes unfortunately -proves that the pioneers of British civilization are not -always the best of the British people. Many of them, it -is to be feared, leave their own country, stained with vice -and vicious habits, ready for any act of oppression, ready <span class="xxpn" id="p016">{16}</span> -to take any advantage of the simplicity of the poor aborigines. -Such people have introduced everywhere the -use of intoxicating drinks, together with the diseases as -well as the vices of their own depraved standard of civilization. -Where the races are found most rapidly decaying, -there the married women are found living in a state -of prostitution and exposed to its diseases. And we -know where such is the case, decline and extinction are -inevitable.</p> - -<p>This appears to be a main cause of the falling off in -births; while the other evil habits introduced by Europeans -destroy the stamina of the adult population and -raise its rate of mortality. With the facts before us, imperfect -as they are, we need feel no surprise at the gradual -extinction of these unhappy races. But we should draw -from them an argument for doing all that can be done to -lessen these evils, and to remove, as far as practicable, -any causes of disease and death which it may be in our -power to remove.</p> - -<p>Complaint of such things, in some form or other, runs -through the whole of the evidence regarding these aboriginal -populations, who appear to be far more susceptible -of the operation of causes of disease arising out of imperfect -civilization, than are -<span class="nowrap">civilized<a class="fnanch" href="#fnlabel-3" id="fnanch-3">†</a></span> -men; how much more -so must they be to such dreadful causes as those indicated -above!</p> - -<div class="dfootnote"> -<a class="fnlabel" href="#fnanch-3" id="fnlabel-3">†</a> -Meaning by “civilized,” men who can live together in a city or -village without cutting each other’s throats. -</div> - -<p>There is a strong presumption that, if aboriginal races -are left undisturbed in their own country to follow their -own customs and even their own vices, they will continue -to exist as they have hitherto done, in a slowly increasing -or stationary condition. But there is no reason to doubt -the evidence contained in these papers that certain races -require very little disturbance in their primeval habits to -pass into a state of decline.</p> - -<p>The great question at issue is, how this is to be arrested.</p> - -<p>The facts appear to point to such remedial measures -as the following:―</p> - -<ul> -<li><p>1. That provision of land should be made for the exclusive -use of the existing tribes; but this, by itself, -would be simply preserving their barbarism for the sake of -preserving their lives. And the question naturally occurs -whether Moravian settlements or settlements conducted -on entirely similar principles, under whatever Christian -<span class="xxpn" id="p017">{17}</span> -denomination, might not be introduced for the purpose of -wisely and gradually winning the people to higher and -better habits.</p></li> - -<li><p>2. A good government which really understood its responsibilities -would put down with any force requisite that -most accursed of all British habits, the sale of intoxicating -drinks to those who never knew them before. On the -heads of these traffickers rests the blood of thousands of -their fellow men.</p></li> - -<li><p>3. Although a large proportion of children have died -while under school instruction, there is no proof that education, -if properly conducted, tends to extinguish races. -And it <i>is</i> possible that by educating outcast native children, -these tribes, with whatever mental constitution endowed, -may be spared to contribute their quota to human -knowledge and advancement.</p></li> - -<li><p>4. The school diseases, however, indicate that education -should be conducted in a very different manner from what -it is in England. Physiology would teach us that it is -not safe to take the child of uncivilized parents, and to -submit it all at once to the restraints of civilization. What -is wanted is a careful study of what can and what cannot -be done with safety. Time would seem to be a great -element in the education of these children. There should -be as little interference as possible with their born habits -and customs. And that interference should take place -gradually and wisely. The probability is that if children -could leave school in health, with sufficient training to -enable them to enter the pale of civilization, their children -would be the more able to bear the required development -of the mental faculties. In any case, physical training, -and a large amount of out-door work, are essentially -necessary to success.</p></li> - -<li><p>5. We all know how difficult it is to preserve health -among dense populations in our houses at home. We may -hence infer how much more difficult it is to draw together -numbers of uncivilized or partially civilized people, within -the same boundary, or under the same roof, without great -risk to health and life. Bring a healthy family from the -open country into a narrow crowded London alley, and -the little ones will die, the elder ones will be sick for, -perhaps, the first time of their lives, and the parents will -fall into confirmed ill health, to say the least of it.</p></li> -</ul> - -<p>Our home experience hence teaches us the extreme -importance of favourable sanitary conditions, whenever an <span class="xxpn" id="p018">{18}</span> -attempt is made to bring the uncivilized within the pale of -civilization.</p> - -<p>Every society which has been formed has had to sacrifice -large proportions of its earlier generations to the new conditions -of life arising out of the mere fact of change. Only -by the greatest care and by the adoption of every requisite -improvement can London itself bear the rapid increase of -its population without danger from pestilence.</p> - -<p>This destroying principle is now at work in the colonies -where races are decaying. And its results can only be -diminished by assimilating the new conditions, involved in -the change, as nearly as possible, so far as healthiness is -concerned, to the open air activity to which the people -have been for generations accustomed.</p> - -<p>These are the results of this inquiry. Defective in many -particulars though they be, they are still sufficient to prove -that, on the local authorities of the colonies, there rests a -responsibility in the face of public opinion in Europe, of -the very gravest kind. It is a matter for state interference. -It is impossible to stand by, while races are disappearing, -of whom it can be said that the “Australian is the finest -model of the human proportions in muscular development,” -that his “head might compare with an antique -bust of a philosopher,” that his “perceptive faculties -are peculiarly acute,” that he is an “apt learner,” and -“possesses the most intense desire to imitate his more -civilized brethren in almost every thing;” that the -Australian aborigines are “possessed of mental power on -a par with their brethren of the other races of man; -that they are perhaps superior to the Negro and some -of the more inferior divisions of the great human -family;” that they have “keen perceptive faculties, with -a considerable deficiency in their reflective faculties, and -a certain want of steadiness of purpose in their characters -which appears the great obstacle to be overcome in -reclaiming them and bringing them within the pale of -civilization and Christianity.”</p> - -<p>These statements are from a report on the subject, -made by a select committee of the Legislative Council of -Victoria in 1858–9. In this report occurs the following -passage, with which I conclude on account of its authority, -appealing from its facts to the better feeling of the colonies, -with the hope that the time is not far off when such a -stigma as it affixes to the empire may be wiped away.</p> - -<blockquote> -<p>“The great and almost unprecedented reduction in the -<span class="xxpn" id="p019">{19}</span> -number of the Aborigines is to be attributed to the general -occupation of the country by the white population; to -vices acquired by contact with a civilized race, more particularly -the indulgence in ardent spirits; and hunger, in -consequence of the scarcity of game since the settlement -of the colony; and, also in some cases, to cruelty and ill-treatment. -The great cause, however, is apparently the -inveterate propensity of the race to excessive indulgence -in spirits, which it seems utterly impossible to eradicate. -This vice is not only fatal, but leads to other causes which -tend to shorten life.</p> - -<p>“Mr. Thomas, the guardian of Aborigines, states in -evidence, that one morning he found five drunken blacks -lying buried in the mud at the Merri Creek, which being -followed by pulmonary attack, death, as is invariably the -case, ensued. It may be remarked, that consumption -forms a fruitful cause of mortality amongst them, in addition -to the other causes enumerated.</p> - -<p>“It would appear that they have materially degenerated -since the advent of the whites, as Mr. Thomas has said -‘the young die two to one in proportion to the old; I -have some old people yet.’ The rapid settlement necessary -upon the country being occupied by flocks and herds -was more unfavourable to the Aborigines than if it had -only been gradually taken up for agricultural purposes.</p> - -<p>“Your Committee are of opinion that great injustice has -been perpetrated upon the Aborigines—that, when the -Government of the colony found it necessary to take from -them their hunting grounds and their means of living, -proper provision should have been made for them. Had -they been a strong race, like the New Zealanders, they -would have forced the new occupiers of their country to -provide for them; but being weak and ignorant, even for -savages, they have been treated with almost utter neglect.</p> - -<p>“With the exception of the Protectorate, which was -an emanation of the Imperial Government, and which -seemed to have been only partially successful, little or -nothing has been done for the black denizens of the -country.”</p></blockquote> - -<p>Every colony where the native races are declining could -furnish some such report as this.

It is -purely a disease of the brain and nervous system, generally fatal, except when -seen in the very early stages. As it is generally met with, the patient sleeps continually, -even when standing up, and becomes perfectly incapable of any exertion; -the sufferer will even fall asleep while being fed. I have seen them last in -this state for months, and gradually die of inanition from want of a sufficiency -of food to support life. I have tried all kinds of treatment, but cannot recommend -any more likely to be beneficial than a prolonged slight salivation, if you -can meet the case in the inflammatory stage or that previous to the sleeping -state just alluded to.</p> - -<p>This and leprosy are the only diseases met with here from which the European -is exempt.</p> - -<div class="flsignature dwthb"> -<span class="smcap">R<b>OBT</b>.

Here, as elsewhere, they copy European vices very readily. -The Kafirs adhere to their own vices, but are more slow in copying European -manners and habits, good or evil.</p> - -<p>I have met with one decided case of scrofula among the Zulus, and one only.</p> - -<p>The ages of infants are reckoned by moons, but adult Kafirs (as the rule) -do not know how old they are; the ages given are therefore only surmised, and -cannot be depended on.</p> - -<p>The tendency of disease among the Kafirs is to collapse and paralysis. No -year goes round without deaths from cold and wet, which they bear less well -than European settlers. They are apt to sink under any serious form of disease.</p> - -<p>Flesh wounds heal well, causing less constitutional disturbance than among -Europeans, but fractured bones do not so soon re-unite. I have found lime -water, a pint or more given daily, promote their union. Lime is scarce here, and -the shells of eggs are correspondingly thin.</p> - -<p>Lung disease is more frequent among natives than white settlers, unless the -latter bring the seeds of disease with them; but I doubt whether it is true -phthisis. I suspect that the lungs of both natives and settlers are more liable -to become hepatized or otherwise disorganized than tuberculated. In examining -the lungs of cattle who have died of lung sickness, I have found large portions -of lung degenerated into an impervious muscle-like substance resembling beef, -while in other portions the disease has shown itself to be of so anemic a character -as to have proceeded without much pause to suppuration. I believe that in this -climate, subjects of phthisis, who had only small tubercles in their lungs, would -find their further development arrested; indeed this has been, in many cases, -proved to have occurred.</p> - -<p>The lung disease, called lung sickness, in cattle, does not, with regard to the -organ attacked, affect human beings, but the tendency of the present race of -mankind is to anemic rather than acutely inflammatory diseases. The most -destructive modern diseases, influenza, cholera, and diphtheria, are of an anemic -character; other diseases are now, more than formerly, inclined to assume this -character. It is not that medicine and doctors, but that human constitutions, -vary. The rule laid down by Pinel that bleeding confirms mania is good now; -but 50 or 70 years ago, as, perhaps, 50 or 70 years hence, more exceptional -cases did and may again occur than are at present met with. <span class="xxpn" id="p055">{55}</span></p> - -<div class="psidenote dwtha">Vide Tables P. and Q., pp. -<a class="apglk" href="#p044" title="go to page 44">44</a> and 45.</div> - -<p>The mortality from fever will be seen to have been great; but of the seven -deaths recorded, six came into the hospital in a dying state.

The hospital has -been occupied somewhat more than three years and a half, but I have held office -as district surgeon in the service of Government eight years and a half, and I -speak of my experience during the whole term of such service.</p> - -<p>In giving names to complaints, I have not set down diarrhœa or even -tænia, of which many instances have occurred, but these instances have been -incidental or symptomatic. Tænia has been discovered and treated in cases of -patients who had wounds, &c., and this frequently. There is no complaint so -generally prevalent among both natives and settlers. The tapeworm of South -Africa is about two-fifths in -<span class="nowrap">width<a class="fnanch" href="#fnlabel-8" id="fnanch-8">†</a></span> -narrower than that of Europe. The most -effective treatment has been 1 <sup>1</sup>⁄<sub>2</sub> oz. sp. terebinth, early in the morning, and one -drop of croton oil, or a dose of other aperient medicine, four or five hours after, -<i>nisi prius soluta sit alvus</i>. A less dose than 1 <sup>1</sup>⁄<sub>2</sub> oz. more disturbs the system -than this quantity, and fails to act. I procured some ethereal extract of male -fern in one case, of which I gave one scruple early in the morning, and a black -draught some hours after. It caused no nausea or other apparent constitutional -disturbance, and a piece of tapeworm was expelled, still alive, which measured -22 feet long. Turpentine generally expels them dead.</p> - -<div class="dfootnote"> -<a class="fnlabel" href="#fnanch-8" id="fnlabel-8">†</a> -The English assumed as 1 in width, the South African 0·6. -</div> - -<p>The fracture that ended fatally was a compound fracture of the left thigh, and -compound comminuted fracture of the tibia and fibula of the right leg, from a -waggon accident. He sunk at the end of two days, never rallying from the -shock to his system, and refusing to submit to the not very hopeful operation -of amputation of the more seriously injured limb. I have had two cases of -injury among the aborigines in which amputation was necessary, one a little -above the ancle, the other four inches above the knee. In the latter case the -leg had been torn off by the machinery of a flour mill, the knee stripped of its -integuments, and the muscles above the knee stretched and contused, so that I -felt myself obliged to operate high up, lest a second amputation should become -requisite. The case occurred a few months ago. Both cases did well. I have -represented my wish in both cases that an artificial leg and foot should be sent -for to England, as it would be a convenience to the parties, and also have a good -sanitary and social effect upon the natives. The cost of the cork or other artificial -two legs, black imitation toes inclusive, would not, I should think, exceed -30<i>l.</i> Their aversion to operations necessary to save life would thus be in some -measure overcome or lessened.</p> - -<p>The natives who have become Christians evince some of the uncomfortableness -and maladroitness that are incidental to a state of transition, but, perhaps, -less than might have been expected. The premises I go upon are, perhaps, -scanty and insufficient, but I am inclined to think that among Christian Kafirs -more children die in infancy than among the unchristianized natives. This is -not to be depended upon, nor can I, generally speaking, say much that is definite -upon the subject of physical or other differences between Christian and other -natives.</p> - -<p>The natives hitherto, as the rule, have not shown the appetence for alcohol -which the North American Indians so early, and so fatally for themselves, -acquired. There are cases of elephantiasis among them; they are subject to skin -diseases. These and other trifling diseases or cases of injury seldom appear at -the hospital, or only as accompaniments of injury or other disease.</p> - -<p>Prior to the completion and occupation of Grey’s hospital, a row of cottages -was rented as a hospital; prior to this the gaol and hospital were under one roof.</p> - -<div class="flsignature dwthb"> - <span class="smcap">S<b>AMUEL</b> G<b>OWER</b></span>, M.R.C.S.

The one is more subject to inflammatory diseases than the other, -from which the former does not so readily recover as the latter. Wounds and -injuries of a very serious character readily admit of reparation; for instance, a -native falls on a stake, which penetrated (by the side of the “sphincter ani”) -the bladder; he walked 10 miles, and arrived at hospital with a pendulous -coagulum at the mouth of the urethra. The catheter was used; urine and blood -escaped, and continued to flow for a day or two; in a week he returned home -quite well.</p> - -<p><i>Civilization increases the proneness to Disease and the facility to succumb to its -Power.</i>―Skin diseases are more prevalent among the natives than the settlers. -Phthisis carries off a great number; exposure to extremes is the cause.

Although the aborigines of this colony are liable to the usual diseases of -Europeans, I invariably found years back that they seldom had the common -diseases, as rheumatism, &c., &c., to the extent Europeans have. Yet I may -state, that eight-tenths of the mortality amongst the aborigines of Victoria -arises through intemperance, bringing on pulmonary disorders, pleurisy, -pneumonia, disorders of the chest, consumption, &c., which carries them off so -speedily that the ablest medical treatment, when available, seldom saves them. -I may safely state that when their respiratory organs are once affected recovery -becomes hopeless. I have witnessed this so invariably within the last 10 years, -as to look forward for death as soon as they are afflicted in the chest.</p></li> - -<li><p>2. The aborigines, however, were not so affected in their respiratory organs -years back as at present; they have only been carried off so precipitately since -they have become slaves to intoxicating liquors. I have known blacks, years -back, to labour under diseases of the lungs for nine or more months, but now -seldom so many weeks, and often not so many days.</p></li> - -<li><p>3. There is a peculiarity even in their pulmonary disorders to the European; -there is not that straining distressing coughing which Europeans labour under; -the phlegm comes free without much exertion and pain to the invalid, but -accompanied with blood.</p></li> - -<li><p>4. Wounds of whatever kind which do not affect a vital part are more readily -cured than in white people. I have seen most desperate wounds inflicted by -their weapons, that would have kept Europeans for months invalids, healed in -an incredibly short time, and to the astonishment of medical men. Wounds, -whether by accident or otherwise, are immediately attended to by their doctors; -if in the fleshy part of the body, they suck the blood from the wound, and continue -sucking it till blood ceases to be extracted. If little blood comes from <span class="xxpn" id="p057">{57}</span> -the wound they know all is not right, and will put the patient to pain by probing -the wound with their lancet (a sharp bone), or place the body or limb in that -position as to compress the opposite part to force blood. They know well the -consequences of stagnant blood or matter, especially in the upper parts of the -body. When the wound is thoroughly cleansed they leave the rest to nature, -clap a lump of pidgerong (a kind of wax oozing from trees) on the wound; -should there follow a gathering, they open the wound afresh, and see all right, -and again cover it over with the pidgerong or gum.</p></li> - -<li><p>5. <i>Rheumatism.</i>―Their general remedy is friction. If very severe about legs or -thighs, the doctor gets a good mound prepared of ashes, excavating the ground -18 inches, made solely from bark, which never has any grit, but mere ash. If -lumbago, the patient is laid on his stomach, the doctor rubs most unmercifully -the hot ashes on the part affected, as a butcher would in salting meat; if in -thighs or legs, the patient’s feet are put into the mound of heated ashes, about -half way up his legs, where he sits whilst the doctor is rubbing the hot ashes -on the parts affected. During this process the doctor is incantating, blowing -occasionally a portion of dust into the air with a hissing noise. When sufficiently -operated upon, the invalid is wrapped up in his blanket.</p></li> - -<li><p>6. <i>Boils.</i>―The blacks treat boils and swellings thus:—When hard, they lotion -the part well with decoction of wattle bark; when obstinate, they boil wild -marshmallow, and poultice; if the tumour softens and does not break, they -apply their sharp bone lancet.</p></li> - -<li><p>7. <i>Eruptions on the Skin.</i>―The aborigines are deeply afflicted with a disorder -called by them bubberum, white men call it itch, but it is in no way like it; it -appears as a raised dark scab, and spreads, joining each other, till it in severe -cases covers almost all the lower extremities. It seldom affects the head or -upper parts, but I have known it almost cover the thighs and downwards, so as -to cause them much difficulty in moving about. Their native cure for this -distemper is to grease the parts affected every night and morning with wheerup -(a red ochre) mixed with a decoction of wattle bark. I knew one instance of this -disease becoming most distressing to a white man in a respectable position who -was continually cohabiting with black lubras.</p></li> - -<li><p>8. <i>On Burns.</i>―Through their imprudence and carelessness they often get -severe burns, which they cure by dabbing the parts over with melted fat, afterwards -dash the parts affected over with a pulp made of oppossum fur and dust -of the wheerup.</p></li> - -<li><p>9. <i>On Dysentery.</i>―The aborigines of Australia are very subject to dysentery, -but not to the fatal extent as Europeans; their remedy of this disorder is -drinking plentifully a decoction of wattle bark and eating gum through the day, -and pills night and morning made by themselves of wattle bark and gum.</p></li> - -<li><p>10. <i>Pains in the Head, Bilious, &c.</i>―If of long standing, the patient is compelled -to lie on the back; the native doctor puts his foot on the patient’s head -above his neck as long as the patient can bear it, till water literally gushes from -the patient’s eyes. However rough this treatment, I have known this operation -to give relief, and the patient cured.</p></li> - -<li><p>11. <i>Disorders of the Lungs, Spitting of Blood, &c.</i>―The blacks study much -the colour of the spittle in those affected in the lungs, and know well its stages. -When the patient begins to spit blood, there is much attention paid to him; -should this increase, which generally is the case, the native doctors have a consultation. -When once the black doctors hold a consultation, they will not let -the patient take any more medicine from the whites. The invalid is laid down -on his back, is held firm by three or more blacks, whilst the native doctor keeps -continually pressing with his feet, even to jump, on the patient’s belly. I need -scarcely state that this cruel practice brings on premature death.</p></li> - -<li><p>12. <i>Venereal Disease.</i>―Though this disease in the first instance must have -been contracted from the whites, the native doctors have prescribed a cure, -which, though simple, I have found efficacious. They boil the wattle bark till -it becomes very strong; they use it as a lotion to the parts affected. I can state -here from my own personal knowledge of three Golburn blacks having this -disease so deeply rooted in them, that the then colonial surgeon, Dr. Cousin, on -examining them said life would not be saved unless they entered into the -hospital, and an operation performed, which they would not consent to. After -18 months these three blacks returned to Melbourne among the tribes (two <span class="xxpn" id="p058">{58}</span> -were young, the other middle aged,) perfectly cured, and the blacks assured me -they had used only the wattle bark lotion. Dr. Wilmot, our late coroner, also -saw these three blacks whilst in this state and after their soundness, and in his -report upon the aborigines stated “however violent this disease may appear -among aborigines, that it could not enter into their system as it did in -European constitutions.”</p></li> - -<li><p>13. In the aboriginal primitive state in times of sickness, as influenza or other -diseases prevalent, they invariably carried fire about with them wherever they -went; this was of bark only; a thick bark, which they provided for the day’s -journey.</p></li> - -<li><p>14. <i>Fevers.</i>―The aboriginal doctors’ treatment in fevers is strictly the cold -water system; no matter what kind of fever it may be, cold water is the remedy, -accompanied with prohibition of animal food. The doctors have a quantity -of water by them, fill their mouths full, spurt it from the mouth over the -whole of the patient’s body, back and front, and for a considerable time to -the navel, then with their hands throw it over the face and breast; then lay -the patient on the back, breathe and blow at the navel, incantating continually -while operating. If the patient be young, the doctor will carry him, and -plunge him or her into the creek or river. The adult patients will voluntarily, -by the assistance of their friends, plunge themselves in three or four -times a day. The blacks obstinately persist in this mode of treatment, although -they find generally death is the result. I was not a little surprised to find -many years back that this also was the mode of treatment among the natives -of the South Sea Islands. As soon as fever attacked them, they crept to the -banks of the Yarra, and plunged themselves in three or more times a day, as -the aboriginals of Australia. I was called to witness their habits when a party -of them were enticed over by the late Mr. Boyd; they were located at Mr. Fennel’s -(Mr. Boyd’s agent) by the banks of the Yarra.</p></li> - -<li><div class="section"> -<p>15.

But it is not civilization -that has caused their deaths; it is rather the vices of the Europeans which they -have imbibed, and the ignorance and recklessness of results in the natives -themselves. They are mere children in understanding, and if their present -wants are gratified they care not for the future. As an instance:—There is a -stringent law prohibiting the selling or giving intoxicating drinks to them, but -they willingly yield to the assistance offered to them by unprincipled sailors and -others to elude this law made for their benefit. The men become intoxicated, -and misery and wretchedness are the consequences to a portion of their families, -who die prematurely, but not before their vicious habits have injured many -besides themselves. There are many individuals in all countries who neither -regard the laws of God nor man, and these unfortunate people might have -been of the number, even if they had been civilized, but the probability is, that -there would not have been so many victims if they had been rescued as children, -and been taught what was right and really civilized. To live such a life as -they now lead in towns among Europeans is not being civilized.</p> - -<p>Not one of the Annesfield school children have ever shown the slightest wish -to return to the bush; and from their parents and other relatives visiting them -they have had opportunities enough to do so, if they had chosen to go. They -duly appreciate civilization, and it has not injured the health of any of them, -but, on the contrary, several that were ill when they came have improved in -health.</p> - -<p>It can scarcely be said that the civilization of the aborigines has been -attempted in Western Australia. Five or six schools have at different times -been established; some of these by private societies or individuals, and the -remainder by Government. But there has been no organized system adopted, -such as is necessary to the carrying out any great work. How little can any -single school do! In the Annesfield Government Institution it has been the aim -to prove that the natives are capable of being made useful members of society, -and, what is more, that they are capable of understanding and embracing the -great truths of salvation; and the result is fully satisfactory.

It -is said that nothing can be effected among the adult natives.

This remarkable disproportion in the mortality may be accounted for -by the starving condition in which the Malabar coolies generally arrive in this -colony; their uncleanly habits; their abstinence from animal food, and, as a -consequence, the low standard of their vital organization; and exposure without -sufficient clothing in the cold climate of the hills.

Christian civilization is doing much for them; and the only hope -we have of raising the people from that state of moral degradation in which -they are found throughout the country is by imparting to them the knowledge -of Christian truth, which never fails to produce the happiest effects on their -habits of life in general, though it may occasionally happen, that by intercourse -with foreigners, vices inimical to longevity are learnt by the aborigines. On -the whole, however, it cannot for a moment be doubted that it is to the introduction -of Christianity, and, along with it, of European science and European -literature, that we have to look for the gradual amelioration of the condition -of the races that inhabit this island; and, consequently, it appears to me that -no effort should be spared to extend the benefits of a sound Christian education -(giving it as much as possible a practical tone and character) throughout the -length and breadth of this beautiful and interesting country. It must be -admitted that there has been but little done as yet in the island in the way of -Christian civilization; but those who are in a position to compare the state of -things at present with what it was 20 or 30 years ago admit that there are -signs of progress to be seen in various parts of the island, and surely this as -a ground of encouragement is not to be despised or underrated.</p> - -<div class="flsignature dwthb">W.

It will be seen that the rate -of deaths is very large, and this, without explanation, might give rise to false -inference as to the healthfulness of the island. The general death rate of the -Indians throughout the island for 1859 was 25 per 1,000, or only 2 per 1,000 -above that of all England for 1858; and, when it is considered that all, or almost -all, the Indians are agricultural labourers or servants, and from the nature of -their labour much exposed to casualties, such a death rate points to Mauritius -as (what it is) an exceedingly healthy locality. Why then so large a mortality -as 22 per cent. in the civil hospital? The answer is readily given by the fact -that the same prejudice against hospitals exists among the Indians and creoles -here as among the poorer classes in England, but in an exaggerated degree, -and consequently that a very large proportion of absolutely hopeless cases are -admitted; so much is this the case, that in 1860, out of 696 deaths, no less -than 108 died within 24 hours after admission, and nearly one-half of the -deaths occurred within the first week.</p> - -<p>In this return two epidemics of cholera are included; one of very severe -character in 1856, and a smaller one in 1859, which carried off above 306 -patients. The most fatal diseases, it will be seen, are dysentery, diarrhœa, -phthisis, dropsy, and fever. The greater number of the cases of dysentery -admitted are old worn-out cases in the last stage of emaciation, filth, and -misery; many of them abandoned by their friends, picked up by the police, and -brought into hospital to die. The greater part of the cases entered as diarrhœa -in former years were undoubtedly either dysentery or phthisis; the latter is as -prevalent (if not more so) among all classes of inhabitants as in England. The -cases of dropsy depend on the same causes as in Europe, but many cases are -seen which present scarcely any morbid change in any of the organs. Fever is -of very low type, and true typhus and typhoid are not unfrequent. Although -many of the Indians and creoles are habitual drunkards, cases of delirium -tremens are very rare. Leprosy is a frequent and fearful disease among -creoles and Indians, but the frequency is not shown in the return, as, until <span class="xxpn" id="p066">{66}</span> -lately, all the cases of leprosy were sent to a ward for that purpose in the lunatic -asylum. This disease rarely occurs among Europeans arrived from Europe, -it is more frequent among creoles of European parents born in the island, and -very much more so among the mixed African race and the Indians. Tetanus, -both traumatic and idiopathic, occurs very much more frequently than in -Europe.</p> - -<div class="flsignature dwthb">P.

These, of course, in a great measure -originate from the careless and dirty habits of the semi-civilized Indians, along -with their daily exposure to all sorts of weather without having different -clothing to wear in winter from that which they have been in the habit of -using during the summer; in addition to which, their living principally upon -corn and potatoes (fish not always being procurable), which induces the production -of worms, and at the same time being a sort of food very unsuitable -for children. Scrofula is universal amongst them, and in a great measure is -produced from their near intermarriages; and it is quite a common circumstance -for a boy of 16 or 17 to marry a girl of the same age, and very often -much younger; hence the offspring of such parents must necessarily be weak -and degenerate, and in consequence of their hereditary debility more liable to -the attacks of illness. Again, those Indians uncivilized living at a great distance -in the interior, and who come down occasionally to trade with the -Hudson’s Bay Company, I have always been given to understand were for the -most part generally healthy, much more so than those of the semi-civilized tribes. -I myself have had but little communication with them, as they seldom visit our -island, but the officers of the Company’s service, with whom I have become -acquainted, have always expressed but one opinion upon the subject.</p> - -<div class="flsignature dwthb"><span class="smcap">D<b>AVID</b></span> <span class="smcap">L<b>AYTON.</b></span></div> - -<hr class="hrclearboth" /> - -<p>In running over the diseases for the last five years, many cases of common -occurrence, not of dangerous or severe nature, are omitted, from the fact that -no particular inventory was required, so that the enclosed number of cases are -merely taken at the time of attendance from their symptoms and necessity for -peculiar or active treatment.</p> - -<p>You are aware that the Savnia Indians are principally Christians, or call -themselves such, although living in a half-civilized state.
