Children brought up on the coarse rough frontier were also spoiled by slavery. The girls caught less coarseness from slavery and less roughness from the wilderness. They were thus, in a way, superior to the men. In old Louisiana before annexation to the United States the lives of the women of the well-to-do were taken up mainly with the supervision of their servants and in exaggerated devotion to their children. Tho they were personally attractive and of natural intelligence they appeared but little interesting to the French traveller, or indeed to their husbands. Quadroons attracted the men.

This brief view of the southern French colony is useful in two ways: it shows the origin of the unique social institutions of New Orleans and it illuminates by way of contrast the English development on the Atlantic coast and helps us to appreciate the distinctive quality of the English institutions from which the American family derives its main features. There was apparently less solidity and seriousness in the French territory. The Puritan blood of France, or, if that be too strong a term, the bourgeois fibre of the nation, was by shortsighted intolerance excluded from French America, and English America profited by the Huguenot strains. Thus the foundations for the modern, as contrasted with the medieval family, were laid on the Atlantic coast rather than in the valley of the Mississippi. By the same token England was destined to possess the continent.
