|  The moral and intellectual character of the Africans is widely different in different nations. | | In disposition the Negro is joyous, flexible, and indolent; while the many nations which compose this race present a singular diversity of intellectual character, of which the far extreme is the lowest grade of humanity. | | The Negroes have little invention, but strong powers of imitation, so that they readily acquire mechanic arts.
