Nature Paints of Negroes.

A writer in Progress Artistique, in discussing the music of south Africa, says tile races living there possess to an astonishing degree the faculty of assimilation and imitation. They re- produce with surprising fidelity the songs Of hir;is, cries of animals and the various sounds of nature. Child-people, they receive in their otherwise obtuse brains Impressions of freshness and vivid intensity. Their long solitary wandering upon hills and prairies, unit ed with feetirg association with for eigners, results in 2, species of melodic nature plaints, as one might imagine, a developed monkey music.
