how to make jquery animation appear slowly

[suavedesign]

Hi,
I am using jquery to make some text scroll in to my web page. I want to know how to make it appear slowly.
This is the script I am using:

$(document).ready(function()
        {
             $('p').animate({"left":"300px", 
                                    },"500");
         });

I tried this, to make it go slower:

 $(document).ready(function()
            {
                 $('p').animate({"left":"300px", 
                                        },"500","slow";
             });

But it seems that it's the wrong way to do it, since it doesnt work.
Whats the correct way to make the animation come in slowly??
Thanks!!
