To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The "Perry" was accordingly despatched on that service and in a few months was followed by the "John Adams;" and within eight months, three American slavers were captured ; our legal com- merce, which had been annoyed by British cruisers, was protected; and our merchant vessels relieved from vexatious Custom House restrictions in the Portuguese provincial ports. This joint cruising was continued, "off and on, " for a year or more ; the American cruiser boarding every vessel under American color...s, and the Brit- ish examining her own vessels and those of the different nations with which her government was in treaty. Several French cruis- ers were also on the south coast. The result of these proceedings was, that the slave trade, not only in American, but also in other vessels, languished, in fact, became almost extinct. This may be seen from the following extracts of a letter, by Sir George Jackson — the British Commissioner, dated Loanda, tth May, 1851.
