NOTE."This is the account of a trip taken by a Straits Settlements officer who, having lived some years in the jungle of the Malay peninsula, was recommended to go for a change to Java. The result is that he gives us an interesting sketch of the civil and military life of the Dutch, their treatment of the natives, and their troubles and vicissitudes in the war with the Lomboks, besides his own impressions of the Javanese, and the mode of living and traveling in that country.”

See note under Thurlow for a criticism of this work. Clive Day, in his article on the
the "culture system," in the "Yale Review" for January, 1900, says:
"The book, which is an unlimited eulogy of the Dutch system, was published when
the supporters of the system were rapidly losing ground, and they used it for a party
document. In this way it gained such importance as to call forth en authoritative
refutation of its errors in a ministerial communication to the Second Chamber.
Investigation showed that in some tables quoted by Money not a single figure
agreed with the official records. The colonial department searched in vain for the
source of his statistics. (T. J. Hovell Thurlow, Report on Java and dependencies, in
Rep. of H. M. Sec. of Embassy, 1868, V, VI, pp. 337, 392. London, 1869.) Compare the
criticism of the book in Wordenboek van Nederlandsch Indië (3 vols., Amsterdam,
1869), where it is called a 'touched-up picture.' The writer says that Money got
his favorable impressions of Java at races and stag hunts, and would have judged
differently if he had stayed longer and seen more. It is impossible to accept any
statement whatever on Money's authority."

Thurlow, however, recognizes the value of Money's work in the following terms:
"The figures of Mr. Money are indeed proved to be untrustworthy; but his historical
parallels, his chapters on the culture system in its palmy days, his study of the
native races-in a word, all the valuable, practical, and original portions of his
book-remain unchallenged, and, consequently, acquire additional importance,
while some errors of account and technical misstatements alone are brought to
light."

NOTE.-An additional reason rendering a new report on this subject desirable is the recent submission to the States' General of some papers, prepared with great care by the Dutch colonial office, correcting inaccuracies in Mr. Money's well-known work, entitled "Java; or, How to manage a colony."

The Dutch are far from underrating the value of this book, which maintains, in their estimation, the high place it took immediately on its publication in 1861, but the rigorous official scrutiny to which the facts, and especially the figures, it contains, have been subjected, exhibited errors which have been deemed of sufficient magnitude to require authoritative contradiction in the shape of a ministerial communi

cation to the Second Chamber. The more important of these errors will be shown
at a later period of this report in a series of tables contrasting the figures of Mr. Money
with those on record in the colonial department. In England it will probably be
held that the results of this comparison tend rather to enhance than to depreciate
the value of "Money's Java" as a sufficiently faithful guide to the Dutch East Indian
possessions. The figures of Mr. Money are indeed proved to be untrustworthy; but
his historical parallels, his chapters on the culture system in its palmy days, his
study of the native races-in a word, all the valuable, practical, and original portions
of his book remain unchallenged, and, consequently, acquire additional importance,
while some errors of account and technical misstatements alone are brought to
light."
