The following notice Of this work is copied from the

"The above is the title of work now in press
founded upon that infamous statute OF South Carolina
by which her citizens claim right to imprison eooyed
shores in distress We have perused the book in ad
like picture Of Perera the vessel in which he sailed
the storms she encountered and her wrecked condition
when brought into the port of Charleston S. c.; to
gether with the imprisonment of Pereira, several
men belonging to the New England States, and two
French seamen; the prison regimen character OF the
Charleston police, and the mendacity Of certain Off
cials, who make the law medium of population. The
work is replete with incidents of Southern life and
character pointing Souherners to the things that call
for correction ut their hands, with force that
cannot be mistaken. The work is written by one who
has taken prominent part in the affairs OF the South
and cannot fail to interest alike the general reader
