Book Description
Excerpt from Brazil, the Home for Southerners: Or, a Practical Account of What the Author, and Others, Who Visited That Country, for the Same Objects, Saw and Did While in That Empire This little book lays no claim to literary merit. It is a plain, true story, for honest, true people. It is written for such Southerners as are seriously contemplating expatriation, from manly motives. No attempt has been made, at giving reasons, why any should leave this country. If those into whose hands it may fall, have not already good, and sufficient reasons, for quitting the United States, I should be the last to furnish anything of that nature. On the contrary, if any simply propose to themselves to seek a country' where they can accumulate more rapidly, the first advice I should venture, would be, that they should remain where they are. Not that I believe they could not improve their pecuniary condition by emigrating to Brazil, but because this is an unworthy motive from which to leave one's country.

Not illustrated. 1866 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER X. OFFICIAL REPORT NO. 2. OF REV. BALLARD S. DUNN, OF NEW OBLEANS, TO THE MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE, ON A PORTION OF THE PROVINCE OF SAN PAULO. Illustrious Sir: I have the honor to submit the following report of my second tour of observation. On the 9th of January, I embarked on board the coast-packet, " D. Affonso," supposing we should leave at 3 P. M., as advertised; but from some cause we did not go until the next day at 9 A. M. After a most unpoetical voyage, in a slow, and comfortless steamer, we reached Cananea on the afternoon of the 13th at 5 p. M. Here I found Sr. Ernesto D. Street, Inspector General of Public Lands; who promptly forwarded your Excellency's orders to Director Smith, at his residence, twelve miles interior, in the Colony of Cananea, who as promptly obeyed; reporting at my lodgings, early on the morning of the 15th, with the gratifying intelligence that he was ready, with good animals, to conduct me to the colony, and farther, when desired. Duing the two days that I remained in the village of Cananea, I obtained some very curious information. I believe it is not generally known, that this, next to St. Vincent's, some distance north on the coast, is the oldest European settlement in the Western Hemisphere. It is matter of record, that the Portuguese landed here in 1535, and at that early date gave to the island the name of Cananea, or Canaan. The church here is very ancient, being now in its two hundred and sixty-fifth year. The island of Cananea is about sixteen miles long by five miles wide. It has one mountain, several springs of excellent water, and the soil in places produces well under a poor system of culture. The harbor is excellent, but the village is insignificant, and in a very delapidated...
