THE Memo RAcE.-Bayard Taylor, wri-

"Those friends of the African race who
point to Egypt as proof of what that race
has accomplished are wholly mistaken.
The only negro features represented in E.
gypt sculpture are those of slaves and cap
tives taken inEthiopian wars of the Pharo-
abs. The temples and pyramids through
out Nubia, as far as the Daref and Abysin-
ia, all bear the hierOglyphy of monarchs,
and there is no evidence in all the Valley
of the Nile that the negro race ever attain
