South America, but the best disposed to receive the evangelical law,
most constant after having embraced it, and the best adapted to
honour Christianity. These people lived divided into various villages,
of which the most populous had the name of the nation. It is not
known what were the number of those villages, which the Jesuits
reduced to seven; and on this account were denominated reduçōes,
or reductions, also missions. The names of these seven celebrated
missions, are the following, with the number of inhabitants in each at
the period of their conquest by the Portuguese in 1801:—
INHABITANTS.
St. Francisco de Borja 1,300
St. Miguel 1,900
St. Joam 1,600
St. Angelo 1,960
St. Nicolau 3,940
St. Lourenço 960
St. Luiz 2,350
St. Francisco de Borja, which is the most southern, is two miles
distant from the Uruguay, and five leagues from the confluence of
Ibicui. It suffered much by an invasion from the Minuanos, a little
before changing its dominion. It has many white people.
St. Miguel, situated twenty-five leagues distant from the Uruguay,
and thirty east-north-east from St. Borja, is the most easterly, and is
considered the capital of the province. A great portion of it was
consumed by fire, which its inhabitants set to it in 1756, when they
saw the combined armies arriving in order to deliver the province up
to the Portuguese crown.
St. Joam is three leagues north of St. Miguel. Its mother church is
in the centre of a vast square. In the time of its prosperity it had forty
streets.
St. Angelo, which is the most northerly, is six leagues to the north
of St. Joam.
St. Nicolau, formerly capital of the various reductions upon the
right bank of the Uruguay, is situated near that river and a small
brook which falls into the Paratini.
St. Lourenço is six leagues to the west of St. Miguel.
St. Luiz is upon the road which goes from St. Lourenço to St.
Nicolau, nine leagues to the east of the latter place, and ten to the
west of the former. All these reductions, otherwise missions, and
which we ought to call towns, as they have a senate, took the name
of the patron of their mother churches. The whole were and yet are
upon the same plan, the houses of earth, with straight streets, and
verandas on the sides, which protect them against the rain and heat,
similar to the missions of the Paranna, with which in equal steps they
reached a flourishing condition, and fell with them into a state of
decay.
Each place has its peculiar Guaranitic dialect, differing little from
the others. Many of these Indians understand the Spanish and
Portuguese, and express themselves tolerably well in both
languages. They exercise almost all the requisite manual
occupations and various mechanical arts with intelligence; likewise
manufacture coarse woollens and cottons. Matte is the only article of
exportation.
In each mission, when governed by the Jesuits, there was a
school for reading, writing, and speaking the Spanish language by
royal order. There were many Indians who could read Spanish books
which they did not understand, as the masters or curates artfully
refrained from uttering a word to them, but in Guaranitic. In
consequence of which, these crafty preceptors were charged to fulfil
the royal determination, by a decree of 1743, but which decree had
not the desired effect.
CHAP. VIII.
PROVINCE OF ST. CATHARINA.
Boundaries—Colonization—Productions—Mountains—Mineralogy—
Phytology—Zoology—Rivers, Lakes, and Ports—Towns,
Parishes, &c.—Agricultural Establishments—Population—Islands
—Delightful Climate.
This province, which is a dismemberment of that of St. Paulo,
subsequent to the latter receiving the addition of a part of St. Amaro
and of St. Vincente, comprehends the island which gives it the
name, and a territory of sixty leagues from north to south on the
neighbouring continent, reckoning from the Sahy, which separates it
from St. Paulo on the north, to the Mampituba, which divides it from
the province of Rio Grande on the south; on the west it has the same
provinces, the heads of the cordillera, running parallel with the sea,
constituting a boundary on that side. Its greatest width does not
exceed twenty leagues, occupying the Beira-Mar, or sea-coast, of
the greatest portion of the ci-devant capitania of St. Amaro; and lying
between 25° 50′, and 29° 20′ south latitude.
A period of one hundred and twenty years elapsed without the
donatories establishing any colonists in the island of St. Catharina,
which, for some time had the name of Isle of Patos. King John IV.
gave it, in the year 1654, to Francisco Dias Velho, who was
assassinated by an English pirate at the time the establishment
began. In consequence of this disaster, the island long remained in
its primitive state. Eventually, various colonists from the Azores were
established in it, at the cost of the crown.
The climate is delightfully temperate and salubrious, with the
exception of certain marshy situations. The face of the country is
mountainous, watered by numerous rivers, and overspread with
woods. The soil is fertile and well adapted to the culture of
mandioca, Indian corn, rice, sugar, coffee, flax, and vegetables.
Wheat and barley are likewise grown in some districts. All the
hortulans of the south of Europe prosper here, particularly onions.
Mountains.—Camberella, which is upon the southern entrance
of the port of the capital, is the highest mountain seen from Santo to
the Torres[18] or Towers. The mountain of Bahul is a land-mark for
navigators.
Mineralogy.—Calcareous stones, granite, pedras d’amolar, or
whetstone. It is said there are indications of gold and other metals.
Phytology.—The oak tree is here more diversified than in the
mother country, and excellent for building. The sassafras, cedar,
loiro, pau d’arco, and those called guarabu and grapecique, are
trees of precious wood, well adapted for cabinet work; likewise the
tree denominated here pau d’oleo, having the grain close and nicely
waved. The Brazilian pine is numerous in various districts. There are
a diversity of medicinal plants; likewise the plant that nurtures the
cochineal, which has been fully described by many writers. It is an
insect, and feeds upon the leaves of the opuncia; its size is so
diminutive at first, that it scarcely can be seen, but it soon moves and
fixes upon a part of the plant, from which it does not remove, and
becomes gradually covered with a white skin, so that the body, which
is scarlet, is no longer seen. In three months it arrives at maturity,
and is not larger than a small pea; there are various modes of
cultivating it, and great care is required to keep off other insects
which destroy it. This is an article of considerable commerce and
might be cultivated to a great extent in the Brazil.
Zoology.—Cattle do not abound in consequence of the
mountainous nature of the country. Amongst other wild quadrupeds,
are well known the deer, the tamandua, the monkey, the boar, the
ounce, the anta, the paca, and the quaty. Amongst numerous
species of birds are remarked the parrot, the macuco partridge, the
rola, or turtle, the guara, and various sorts of the humming bird
called colibri, or beija-flor. The lakes abound with wild ducks and
geese. An infinite variety of beautiful butterflies are seen in this
province, to delight the eye, and engage the research of the
naturalist. The air appears filled with floating flowers.
Rivers, Lakes, and Ports.—The first are generally of a short
extent. About three miles north-north-east of the Towers is the mouth
of the Mampituba, about one hundred fathoms wide, which was
called for some time the Martim Affonso. It is not more than seven
leagues long, being formed of various streams that descend from the
cordillera; its current is violent, but sumacas, or smacks, ascend with
the tide twelve miles to the port of Forquilhas. By its northern margin
it receives the waters of a lake, which is about five leagues long, and
one broad, extending parallel with the sea-coast as far as the
Campos das Lagoinhas, from thence it has another outlet to the sea,
by a channel called Arroyo Grande.
Near the situation denominated the Conventos, there is a serro of
rock moderately elevated, and terminating in a platform near the
beach, about six leagues distant from the Mambituba. Six miles
further, the river Ararangua enters the sea, and is navigable for the
space of five leagues to the Tres Portos, where it is one hundred
fathoms wide, and deeper than at the bar, having a rapid current
from the month of June to September. Three leagues beyond the
preceding, the river Urussanga disembogues, being more extensive,
and much more rapid when its waters are high; no vessel can enter
its mouth, in consequence of the sea breaking with great violence
upon a bank which crosses it. Higher up it is wider, and has four
fathoms of depth in some places. This river communicates with a
large and deep lake, where the boto and other large fish are seen,
which come up from the ocean; it lies northward of the river. Five
leagues further is the rock of St. Martha, where the coast changes its
direction to the north. Three leagues to the north of the Morro, or
rock of St. Martha, is the spacious bay of Laguna, formerly the river
Da Lagoa, (of the Lake) which is the mouth of the river Tubarao, and
together the outlet of various lakes, prolonged in a chain parallel with
the ocean, and at no considerable distance from it. This river rises in
the serra that bounds this province, and its current is rapid from April
to September. Canoes proceed up it a distance of eight or nine
leagues to Porto da Guarda; but sumacas do not pass the mouth of
the river Capibary, which joins it by the left bank, and is navigable for
a space of eight leagues to Pouzo Alto. On the northern margin of
the Tubarao is the outlet of the great lake Laguna, which is five
leagues long from north to south, near two at the greatest width, and
is of sufficient depth for sumacas, as far as its northern extremity. On
the southern bank of the Tubarao, in front of the outlet of the
Laguna, is that of the lake of St. Martha, which lake is a quarter of a
league square. On its southern side the lake Garopaba discharges
itself, is about the same size, and one league distant. Into the latter
the outlet of the lake Jaguaruna disembogues, which is two leagues
further to the southward, and a little larger. The three together afford
a passage to large canoes, as far as the river Congonhas, which is
not considerable, and empties itself into the western margin of the
latter lake. They are comprehended under the name of the lakes of
Camacho, and abound in fish.
On the western side of the Laguna, and near its northern
extremity, the river Una discharges itself, and affords navigation to
canoes for some leagues, as far as the rock of St. Joam. An arm of
this river extends a league and a half to the north, is deep, and
terminates in a morass.
In front of the embouchure of the Laguna is the small island of
Lobos. Four leagues to the north is the point and port of the
Embituba, and two farther is the mouth of the river Piraquera, which
is the outlet of the lake of the same name, otherwise Encantada, four
miles long and one wide.
Continuing onward, the river Embahu is met with, which at its
mouth is only eight fathoms wide, but it gradually increases to more
than eighty fathoms; canoes can proceed up during a day’s voyage.
Two miles farther to the north is the point of Pinheira, which is
followed by the gulf of the same name, being the southern entrance
to the channel of the island of St. Catharina; its southern extremity is
a league to the north of the said point.
Near six miles to the north of Point Pinheira, the Massambu
disembogues, being thirty fathoms wide, and of considerable depth,
but of short extent: Rio Dom Rodrigo was its first designation. After it
follows a small bay, called Brito, and a little farther is the entrance of
the river Cubatao, sixty fathoms wide, up which larger canoes
proceed during two days’ voyage. In the proximity of this river there
are various fountains of hot water, having different degrees of heat:
the most distant one, situated five leagues up the river, possesses
one hundred and two degrees.
After passing various small rivers, the river Maruhy is met with,
as large as the preceding one, and navigable to the place
denominated Guarda. Near this river is the bay of St. Joze. A little to
the north is a straight, which divides the channel into two almost
equal parts; and a little farther is the entrance of the river Biguassu,
fifty fathoms in width, and up which canoes proceed for many
leagues. The first discoverers called it the river of Patos, in
consequence of its constituting a limit between the Indians of that
name, who extended themselves as far as the St. Pedro, and the
Carijos to the north as far as Cannanea.
The large bay of St. Miguel follows; afterwards, the point of
Armacao; and, farther on, that of Ganchos, which lies east and west
of the extremity of the island of St. Catharina, and is to the
southward of the spacious bay of Tejucas, at the farther end of which
the river of the same name discharges itself, being fifty fathoms
wide, and affording two days’ navigation. The surrounding country of
the bay of Tejucas is a morass or marshy plain in the winter, when its
passage is attended with great labour and inconvenience.
To the north of the preceding is the bay of Guaroupas, open to
the north-east, not so large, but sufficiently sheltered and capacious
for the reception of a squadron of ships; the river Bupeba runs into it,
as well as the two Pireques. The intervening land of those two bays
is a peninsula, which extends to the sea, terminating in three points,
and forming two small bays.
Proceeding northward, the next river is the Cambory-Guassu,
rapid at its entrance into the sea, and being twenty fathoms in width.
Nearly three leagues farther is the embouchure of the great river
Tajahy, which is little less than sixty fathoms in width at the passage
a short distance from the beach. It is the only river met with on the
road from Portalegre to St. Paulo that flows towards the east; the
sumacas proceed up only three miles, launches and large canoes
navigate freely as far as the first fall. About one hundred and twenty
yards above it becomes navigable for the space of three days, by
towing, and as many more with the oar, to the next cataract. It rises
between the river Negro and the Correntes, (which run to westward.)
In its neighbourhood there are many small mountains. The principal
confluents which enlarge it are the Rio de Luiz Alves (which comes
from the north-west, runs near the mountain of Bahul, seen from the
sea at a great distance, and is navigable for small canoes) and the
Tajahy Mirim, which runs from the south-west, navigable for canoes
about ten leagues. The whole flow through countries of great fertility.
Five miles farther to the north is the river Gravata, otherwise Iriri-
Guassu, thirty fathoms wide, and navigable for canoes. It is followed
by the spacious bay of Itapacoroya, where there is an establishment
for whale fishing. Proceeding onwards, the Iriri Mirim and the
Camboriu are met with, up which canoes also navigate with the aid
of the tide. Near to the latter is the Tajuba, a river of a similar class.
Three leagues to the north of the Itapacoroya the river Itapicu
disembogues, being fifty fathoms wide, and of considerable depth.
Its origin is far back in the province, and affords navigation to small
canoes for many leagues, without the interruption of more than one
cataract, which is situated ten miles above the mouth. The agitated
state of the sea at the mouth of this river does not permit the
entrance of any description of vessel. Immediately beyond the bar it
forms a lake, called Lagoa da Cruz, two leagues long from north to
south, parallel with the beach, and very narrow. Among the rivers
which enlarge it are remarked the Piranga, which is received by the
left bank, and is navigable by canoes for a space of five leagues; the
Upitanga, which joins it by the right margin, and is only navigable for
six miles; the Itapicu Mirim, that comes from the north-west and
admits of navigation for about fifteen miles; the Jaragua, which flows
from the south-west, and appears capable of allowing small vessels
to proceed as far as a situation about four leagues above its mouth;
and the Braço, which descends from the north-west, and admits of
canoes for the space of six miles. All these rivers run by winding
courses among mountains and uncultivated territories, thickly
wooded, demonstrating the natural fertility of the soil. The Itapicu is
supposed to be the river of Dragons, which the discoverers placed to
the south of the river St. Francisco in this district.
Five miles to the north of Itapicu is the island of St. Francisco, six
leagues long, and in the form of a bow, the right line of which is
nearest the coast; the channel which separates it from the continent
is improperly called the river of St. Francisco. The southern entrance
is denominated Aracary, is two hundred fathoms wide, has only
depth for large boats, and on its outside are the three islands of
Remedios and two of Tamboretes. The northern bar, called
Babitonga, is fifteen hundred fathoms wide and deep enough for
large sumacas.[19] At the end of the sixteenth century it was not
known that the land between the bar of Aracary and Babitonga was
an island; they were thought to be two mighty rivers, the southern
called the St. Francisco and the northern the Alagado. The channel,
or the pretended river St. Francisco, of a semicircular form, enlarges
considerably from both mouths to the middle, where it is three miles
wide, and contains a cluster of more than twenty islands. A great
number of rivers empty themselves here. The nearest to the bar of
Aracary is the Piraque, having a course of five leagues, five fathoms
in width at the mouth, and affords navigation to canoes for three
miles; next to it is the Pinheiros, still smaller; then the Paraty, which
is thirty fathoms wide at the bar, two and a half in depth, and
navigable for about a league. The little river Areas, narrow and deep,
is navigable for two miles. The great river Areas, up which canoes
proceed with the tide for some distance. The river Parannagua,
whose origin approximates to that of the Pirango, an arm of the
Itapicu: coasting vessels proceed up it a short way, large boats about
two miles, and canoes nearly five miles. Next follow the Saguaçu;
the two Erirys; the Cubatao Grande, twenty fathoms wide, three
deep, and navigable for ten leagues to the high rock of Tromba; the
Antonio Felis; the Ribeyrao; the Biguaçu; the Pyrabyréba; the
Cavalinhos, by which canoes proceed for a space of ten miles; the
Tres-Barras, so called in consequence of being the common
embouchure of the three rivers of Furtaenchente, St. Joam, and Tres
Barras, the second only being considerable, (its principal confluents
are the Maria Bachaara and the Farinhas, which come from the
serra of Curytiba, and afford navigation to canoes;) the Barrancos,
Bacuhy, Lamen, Batuby, Fornos, Fernandes, Barboza, and the two
Jaugarunas, the smaller of which is nearest to the northern point of
the bar of Babitonga. The nine last, and several of the others are
small, being only of any note during the spring tides. The whole of
these rivers generally run tamely between low banks, of a marshy
nature, abounding with considerable numbers of the beautiful scarlet
guara bird, which delight the eye of the navigators. In some of these
rivers are found seed pearls of various colours, also large pearls of
an imperfect kind.
The island of St. Francisco is low, watered with various small
rivers, and inhabited; on its eastern side there is a narrow lake, ten
miles long from north to south, denominated the river Acarahy; and
near it another small one. Two leagues north of the bar of Babitonga
is the river Sahy Mirim, and the same distance farther the Sahy
Grande, both inconsiderable, uniting in one stream a little above their
embouchures.
The greatest part of the population of this province is descended
from families who came from the Azore Islands, for the purpose of
colonizing it. Negroes are not numerous, and mesticos still less so.
The aboriginal Patos, whose name the island at first had, penetrated
into the continent. The Carijos were the first tribe understood by the
Vincentistas, and hence their name was given in common to all
domesticated Indians, of whatever nation.
This province has three towns, viz.
Nosso Senhora do Desterro, in the island of St. Catharina,
Laguna, on the continent,
St. Francisco, in the island of the same name;
