The rest of the Jews in Europe, Asia, and Africa, as well as a number of congre- gations in this country, still cling to their traditional prac- tices and their ancient rituals. JEWS IN AMERICA. Shortly after the discovery of the New World, a few Jews sought a refuge there from the oppression of the Inquisi- tion, which was then in full force in Spain and Portugal. We know that their first settlement was in Brazil, whither it is said, in 1548, a great number of New Christians were sent as a kin...d of banishment by the Portuguese Govern- ment. There they successfully cultivated the soil, and first planted the sugar-cane. Nothing more definitely is known about their names, numbers, or particular places of resi- dence, and it is not until a good many years afterward that we have any better information about the Jews settling in America. In 1624, a number of French Jews came to Brazil, and together with others who had already lived on the continent for years, formed a new colony with David Cohen Nassi at their head.
