Not illustrated. 1795 Excerpt: ... slaves as the court thinks fit to order from the planters, from time to time, are dispersed at posts placed at proper distances on a cordon, surrounding the colony on the land side, in order, as far as possible, to defend the distant plantations and the colony in general, from the attacks of several dangerous bands of runaway slaves, which from very small beginnings have, from the natural prolificacy of the negro race, and the continual addition of fresh fugitives, arrived at such a height as to have cost the country very great sums of money, and much loss of men, without being able to do these negroes any effectual injury. This colony was first possessed by the French as early as the year 1630 or 40, and was abandoned by them on account of its unhealthy climate. In the year 1650 it was taken by some Englislimen, and in 1662 a charter grant was made of it by Charles II. About this time it was considerably augmented by the settlement of a number of Jews, who had been driven out of Cayenne and the Brasils, whose descendants, with other Jews, compose at present one half of the white inhabitants of the colony, and are allowed great privileges. In 1667 it was taken by the Dutch, and the English having got possession about the same time of the then Dutch colony of New-York, each party retained its conquest; the Englisli planters most of them retired to Jamaica, leaving their slaves behind them, whose language is still Englisli, but so corrupted as not to be understood at first by an Englifliman.
