The so called Portuguese , representing tho conquerors of the Indies , are either black , or the recent offspring of the Portuguese of Goa , Damaim , and Diu .
The families of Netherlands descent in New York , which have intermarried with English , are dwindling ; so that as the Hollanders of that state do not , as a matter of caste , marry solely among themselves but intermarry , the Dutch population does not increase proportionally with the English . That considerable populations have failed to establish a permanent mixture with the English , is a matter of history .
