JAMAICA: It's PAST AND PRESENT SrATE. BY JAMES Nj.


pHILLlfPo


This processes to be a history Of Jamaica. 1t
has many defects in style and several in grammar,
and lays no claim to literary excellence. 1t is
valuable to the missionary more than to the his
torian Its great excellence to us consists, how
ever, in the fair candid and we think most intel
ligen view of the relative effect Of the Slave and
Free System on the Island. He is not a traveller
but has been resident Of the Island for 20 years.
He has viewed the thing with an impartial eye
and there is a aightforwardness and candor in
his statements that commend them to every man.
In this respect, the work possesses great value,
and ought to be read. Sold by Saxton & Miles,
