"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 color
se1nsen of all nations and those cast upon their
shores in distress We have perused the book in nd
vance of its publication and find that it gives life
like picture OF Pereira the vessel in which he sailed
the storms she and her wrecked condition
when brought into the port Of Charleston, s. O. to-
gether with the imprisonment of Pereira, several sea
men belonging to the New England States, and two
French seanen; the prison regimen, character OF the
Charleston police and the mendacity OF certain ON
cias, who make the law medium OF peculatioD. The
work is replete with incidents OF Southern life and
character pointing Southerners to the things that call
for correction Mt 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
commercial man, and philanthropist."
