" The present Work contains a great deal of useful infor-
matioh respecting f ama:ca. We have been, considerably-gra-
titied by the perusal, and more so, as the information which
it contains,. instead of being copied from oilier hooks, seguis
to have been, principally' derived from personal observation.
The Author appears to be a judicious and impartial man,
and it is with pleasure that we bestow on his,pertOrmance,
the praise of candour and of truth."
