THE HEBRIDEAN CROFTERS.

Tho " Lord of the Islos " and his Tenants,

Tho Story of Highland Evictions,

(To the Editor.)

Sin, —Tl-. tyranny and oppression to which the Skye, Lewis, and Uist crofters or_ small tenants havo been mercilessly subjected during tho past few years, may well bo characterised as little short of tho Star Chamber proceedings which led to the massacre of Gloncoe, tho foulest blot on the otherwiso good regal administration of William 111. No doubt William was docoived in the representations made to him as to the disloyalty of the Maclans of Glencoo, and in a moment of weakness and inconsideration he signed the warrant for the extermination of that sept of the clan Macdonald, who wero then so numerous in the Highlands and islands as to havo exceeded in power that of alt other clans in those regionß. Tho ancestor of the Mactlonalds who settled in Gloncoe was called lan, and his descendants and those who swore fealty to him were, according to Highland custom, designated Maclans. After tho Battlo of Culloddcn tho influenco of the Celtic chieftains had so dogenerated as to have entirely changed the character ol tho feudal system in the land of tho Gael. Tho heads of clans, finding that their prospects of exercising their authority under a Stuatt dynasty were hopelessly wafted to tho winds, and that the bond of union which had previously existed between chieftains and people had been broken, began to engender irrepres sible disaffection in their minds, which shortly extended to nearly all tho clans men. Owing to this mutual disaffection, a Bpecies of antagonism of a very rampant nature has been kept up between tho lairds in the Highlands and thoir tenantry sinco the close of last contury. The landed propiietors, in general, entertained hostility towards those who rented farms and crofts from them, whilst this unhappy compliment was duly returned by the latter. Thus a perpetual warfare has been maintained between both parties. Fifty years ago tho depopulation system, with all its horrors, was inaugu rated in Sutherlandshire, under the notorious Loch, factor to the Duke of Sutherland, ond the wholesale expatriation of Highlanders in that country, to the backwoods of Canada and the wild bush of Australia, had, from that time, been, more or less, tho order of the day in the North-Western Highlands. Tho London "Time."," the lamented Hugh Miller, Dr. Chalmers, Dr. Begg, Rev. Mr Macdonald, of Helmsdale, nnd other philanthropists, promptly and prniseworthily espoused the cause of the expatriated, whose forofathers, for many generations, inhabited the glens and straths from which they wero so ruth lessly expelled in order that their possessions might be converted into deer forests, grouse preserves, and sheep walks. Following the iniquitous example of the Duke of Sutherland's factor, several of the landed proprietors in Skye, including Lord Macdonald, of Sleat, Mr Rep:r<-H Macleod, of Dunrogan, Captain Fraet.. i Kilmuir, and ono or two more, have recently immortalised themselves in tho annals of oppression and inhumanity ; and when the history of the Hebrides comes to be written a chapter thereof must necessarily be de voted to crofter clearances in that quarter — clearances which can only find their coun terparts in the cruel evictions of Ireland, which of late years have culminated in unparalleled deeds of bloodshed in that unhappy island. The Skye crof ter*, who principally reside on tho estate of Lord Macdonald, have beon and are still most shamefully treated.^ Somo years ago they were abruptly deprived of pasturo land for their cattle, which had been held by themselves and their fore fathers for hundreds of years, to make aug mentations to the proprietor's already extensive deer forest, whilst at tho samo time thoir rents wero raised, thoir leases declined to be extended, and such improve ments ns havo been made upon their hold ings refused to be compensated for. It is not, therefore, a matter of surprise that theso peoplo should resist tho reckless and glaringly unjustifiable encroachments made upon their rights and privileges by the hard - hearted proprietor, to whom they had paid rent so long, and to whom they wero still willing to do so, provided justico wore accorded them. True it is that the Skyo crofters did not re sort to anything like sanguinary proceed ings, as in Ireland, being as they wero fully persuaded that such mode of defending their position would bo subversive of all moral and religious obligations, and con sequently highly criminal. They boro their scvoro persecutions patiently, and thus succeeded in enlisting the sympathy of all right-minded porsons. Tho appoint ment of a Royal Commission to investigate the grievances of tho Ilobridean croftors was an acknowledgment on the part of tho Im perial Government that theso loyal, patriotic and law-abiding peoplo wero harshly dealt with and needed to be protected; but had tho (lladstono Cabinet given prompt eltect to tho recommendations of tho Commission, as they should havo dono, there would be no necessity for sending an armed vessel to Skye and Lewis, where crime is practically unknown. This highly injudicious stop was taken at the instigation of a par col of cruel landlords, and is another instanco of tho imbecility of tho Glad stone regime in critical mattors. The civil resistance offered by tho crofters was simply justifiable. Their rights were savagely invaded by tyrannical and unprincipled landowners, just as the roligious rights and privileges of tho Coven anters wore trampled under foot by Charles 11. and hig Episcopal faction, and no ono out of a lunatic asylum could ever blame theso lattor noble defenders of genuine Pro tcstanism and Scriptural Church govern ment for adopting tho course they had done when tho dragoons of Claverhouse hunted them from mountain to hill. Within the last three months Lord Macdonald's factor has so outraged humanity and sympathy in tho United Kingdom as to have raised a howl of indignation against him everywhere. This tyrant has even gone the length of intimating to the Rev. John Dar roch, parish minister of Dortree, that he will not pay his stipend on account of the non-payment of rent on the part of the crofters on Macdonald's estato. As the stipends of all the parochial clergy in Scot land in connection with tho Established Church aro secured to them by statutory power, ratified by the Articles of Union between that kingdom and England, neither Macdonald nor any other Scottish heritor can withhold tho payment of parish burdens. The croftors, backed as they are by powor ful associations in Scotland, England, and Ireland, are determined to stand their ground, como what may. They have inti mated to Lord Macdonald that not only will they steadfastly refuse to pay rent, but that it is their intention to sue him for £2,300 for pasture land of which he had deprived them seventeen years ago. As it is unquestionably the determination of Lord Macdonald and other Skye land lords to drive away the crofters from their estates, the latter should, in order to better their circumstances, make one or other of the colonies the land of their adoption. Now Zealand places 10,000 acres of suitable land at their dis posal, and so generous an offer ought to be accepted. Whilst the climate of the Dominion of Canada is too ebld, and that of Australia too hot, the temperature of the Britain of the South may be regarded as the happy mean between theso two extremes, and therefore the best adopted for immigrants from the Mother Country. The Hebridean crofters aro admittedly the best fishermen in Great Britain, and as the proper utilisation of the unlimited harvest of lish with which New Zealand waters abound from tho Bluff to the North Cape would materially augment our industrial wealth, tho introduction of such skilful ichthyologists would be an immense boon to us.—'yours, etc., J. Hay.
