THE LIFE OF JOHN JAY : with Selections from his Cor- 
respondence and Miscellaneous Papers. By his Son William Jay. In 2 vols. 
8vo. With a Portrait. 
It would be doing injustice to the American public to suppose that they do not take 
an interest in knowing the characters and actions of those to whom they are in- 
debted for the liberty and prosperity they now enjoy. Mr. Jay, il will be remembered, 
stood high among those who devoted themselves to the service of their country, and 
acquired a title to its gratitude. The present work, casting much new and valuable 
light on our early history, and being, in all respects, worthy ol its great subject, 
caimot, therefore, fail to prove highly interesting and valuable ; and such, in'fact, it 
has been pronounced by ali who have perused it.
