Poor old Africa! I love her for her very woes: and if I sometimes drop into an undertone, and, in drawing with a free hand these African pictures, give the dark back ground, with the lighter figures ou the canvas, it is to turn, if I may, the eyes of our more favored countrymen to a distant shore, that they may look with tenderness and with pity on a land of so much beauty and so much sorrow.
