Book Description
Excerpt from The New-Orleans Medical and Surgical Journal, 1853: July, 1853 That the effects of alcoholic beverages on the Ethiopian race are pernicious, is sufficiently proved by the fact, that plantation property diminishes in value in proportion to its proximity to villages, grog shops, or those places where slaves can' procure ardent spirits without leave from their masters. It is 'also proved by the fact, that no sens ible planter, although he may have more land than he wants, will die pose of ever so small a lot, even at an extravagant price, for fear that a grog shop or grocery, where his slaves can obtain ardent spirits, will be erected on it. Hence, for many miles together, through the plant. Ing region, the weary traveler often finds no resting place or tavern. The owners ofthe soil will not sell land enough to build a public house upon, for fear that his negroes will become' corrupted by the facilities that such places generally afford, to the easy attaiment of ardent spirits. Samuel Davis, Esq., opposite Natchez, has four times as much land as his negroes can cultivate; 'yet neither love nor money can Induce him to sell a single piece, the'size of a town lot, for fear that a grocery or retail liquor store may be established on it to corrupt his negroes. The Parish of Concordia and a few private individuals own a few lots, opposite Natchez, constituting the little village of Vidalia, consisting of a court-house, jail, lawyer's offices, a printing press of one of the best papers in the South, and two hotels. Yet Mr. Davis cannot be pre. Vailed Upon to enlarge Vidalia, by selling lots. Although ofi'ered New Orleans prices. If he were to do so, he knows Very well that grog shops would Soon be erected upon them, and his negroes would become worthless, from the facilities of obtaining alcoholic beverages.
