a. NOT COLOR BE II EFFECT OF Gil
According to Lord Brougham, on,
fact is worth a cargo Of theories, ani
not n uncontrOvtrtcd fact has ever
been cited to show that color among
the races OF men, is the result Of cii-
mate.
| have heard we'll meaning persons
assert that the NEGROES Of ttir ln,lr
Of bluud, were growing winter, anll
that the change WAS t,c elect vi eli
mate. But these good people forget
that il tie Innate of America can effect
any change IN the complexion Of the
negro, that the negro ought to be turn
ing red instead OF white, for red, and
not white, is the color Of the natives OF
America. Europeans have resided III
America during more than ten, and AZ
ricans have resided here during cighr
generations, and if color be produced
b. climate, then the white and black IA
crs ought to be turning red. But cv,
cry "a lid observer will almi t It IT,
pure FLOODED negro cannot be niackrr
than he is now, while the descendants
of Europeans whose ancestors landed
on our shores centuries ago, are as fair
as are the peoplc. of Great Britain or
Germany. No. The types Of men,,
except by aduIteration never change.
There are to day fair skinned Jews in
Maiabar, whose SUCCESSORS settled there
more than 1900 years ago. Ana cv-
cry traveller who has visited Aries in
the South Of France, will tell you that
there is to be found the beautiful Greek
type in iorm AID .,cature, as clearly
marked as an ancient Ilct'es. or Attn.
ems, or Sparta, and yet it is more than
two thousand years since the Greek
scolonists, from whom the Arlesians
sprung, first landed on what is now the
coast Of France, ON the beautiful Alndi-
: t%errane;Ln.
Many other well authenticated facts
should be cited, but time will not pei
nit me to DO so, and | will conclude
this hraach OF the subject by quoting
an authority which will not he contro-
ycrted. In Jeremiah. 18th chapter and
23d verse, we read: Can the Ethio-
plan change his skin, or ~theleopard his
spots? THEN may ,yc also do good
VINO are accustomed to do evil That
is, good can no more he done by these
who are accustomed to do evil, than
can the Ethiopian change his skin, or
the leopard his spots. There can be
no doubt as to TIE correctness Of this
Interpretation, when it is considered
that God was denonnring judgment
against His people for their wickedncss.
And in the next verse he says: There
fore will | scatter them as the stubble
that passeth away by Tie wind Of the
.w~ildcrncss.'
