AFRICA THE TOPIC or THE DAY.

The exhibition Of results, relics and impc-
mcnts Of African exploration, which opened
Yesterday in London, and to which the
rcscucr Of Emn Pacha has given his name is
certain I'd create Il widespread interest. For
Africa is pre-cmincnty the topic of the day.
If is the al-absorbing and and as yet unsolvcd
problem of the gcographcrS, of the natuIaliSts
and Of the scientists in general. The hcroism
which it has developed in those adventurous
cxploIcrs who have penetrated its darkest
dcpths. and constituted the vanguard OF civil
cation. has appealed TO popular feeling and
aroused enthusiastic admiration in all ranks OF
life. And the jcalouScS which have cropped
up in connection with its partition, the con-
Gicts ON the subject of priority OF possession,
and the necessity of putting an end to the de-
vastating horrors Of the slave trade, have Tor
several months past almost monopolized both
