The Rhode Island American, And General Advertiser

Prince Saunders, an African, late of this town, but now in the service of Christophe, King of Hayti has recently compiled and published in London, a work entitled Haytian papers, with a preface by himself. To the work is prefixed a portrait of the Editor, which is an excellent likeness. The publication consisting principally of official papers, which serve as a tolerable history of the kingdom, is designed to vindicate the claims of Hayti to be ranked among civilized and enlightened States. It is quite creditable to the authors of the individual papers, and we think few persons will examine the volume without some surprise at the degree of talents and intelligence that it discovers. There is a copy of the work in the Boston Athenaeum, presented by the Editor.
