Though the Watchman editors do not know whether this Subscriber believes that the soul and body of enslaved peoples are under enslaver's care, they do know that the Subscriber, a LITTLE GREAT MAN (an insult), has over stepped the limits of their power and thus has rendered themselves obnoxious to the country's laws.

Though this Subscriber immorally describes the people of Jamaica, they do describe common punishment and governing protocols inflicted within the institution of slavery.

Alexander the Great (356BCE-232BCE) ruled the Kingdom of Macedon and created one of the largest empires in history that expanded from Greece to northwestern India.

Julius Caesar (100BCE-44BCE) was a roman general and statesman that transformed the Roman Republic and created much social reform. He was pivotal in the rise of the Roman Empire.

The Watchman make reference to Alexander the Great and Julius Caesar, who were two conquerors that never used spiritual monarchy or religious conjectures to control their armies or people. For example, they did not tell their warriors to fight for their countries through the usage of religion. Neither have the Mahometans. However this is not the same for Jamaica. Jamaica's intolerance of religion has tainted the souls of its army.

Now, white soldiers who have fought for Jamaica are being treated with degeneration in a similar manner to how white people in the Americas treated the enslaved.

The Watchman editors confront the subscriber/attorney on their derogatory claims towards enslaved peoples and advises them to redeem their tarnished reputation and uphold their honor and principle -- characteristics someone in the legal profession should contain. The Watchman editor's are able to confront the subscriber and hold them accountable for their derogatory comments, which demonstrates their usage of discourse within their newspaper, in order to persuade anti-slavery ideals to their readers.

The Court of Common Council is the city of London's main decision-making body. The first council was elected in 1273.

&c means et cetera (etc)

The Watchman reports on additional legal situations such as the Court of Common Council's decision to alleviate the Pastor of the Jewish Church's taxes. The Watchman editors praise the contributions and conducts that the members of the Jewish Synagogues have given.

Whiskers is defined as someone's facial hair, or more specifically, beard. In the Watchman's context, a new regulation to maintain ones facial hair in a particular and orderly manner is established within the Army.

The main units of government in Jamaica are organized into Parishes. The Saint Thomas in the Vale Parish was located in Middlesex County. After 1866 it merged with the Saint Catherine Parish. Since 1867 there has been 14 parishes across Cornwall, Middlesex, and Surrey.21 The Saint Thomas in the Vale Parish Regiment could have been a military Regiment that originated in the Vale Parish but most likely expanded and combined with other Regiments after The Saint Thomas in the Vale Parish merged.

The Watchman uses this page (mostly in the last two columns) to briefly report on the news in Jamaica. The editors report on new regulations to maintain Officer's whiskers in the Militia, then they report about a fire and the communal effort to put it out, they write about a "stupid story" regarding the Militia Ball, and they report on the recent consecration of the Burying Ground at Mandeville Church, Manchester. Considering the Watchman editors report on multiple topics, their readers would have been exposed to a variety of subjects and perspectives, which demonstrates that the Watchman does not limit the news it reports on.
