general misconception as to the color of

the Euroiiean aud American races. Europe is supposed
to be peopled exclusively by white men ; hut in reality
• every shade of color is represented oii that continent,
from the fair complexion of the fairest of the Sn cdes
to the dark-skinned inhabitants of the Mediterranean
coast, only a shade lighter than the Berbers, or
Moors, on the opposite side of tliat sea. On the
whole, it seems that the distinction of color, from the
fairest Englishman to the blackest African, has no
hard and_fasl but varies gradually from one
lines,
tint to another. When we turn to America we find
that the popular opinion that all Indians are "red foPvJf^AITS^
men," and of the same hue from Patagonia to Hud-
sou's Bay, is a gross error. It would be cosy to show-
that the American races demonstrate nearly as gi-eat
variety in this respect as nations of the old continent.
There are white Indians aud 'red Indians— Indians as
black as negroes of Guinea, while there are other triljcs
of an olive complexion. Adam was, it would appear,
a red man; WinchcU tells us that Adam was derived
from red earth. Thc'Arabs distinguish mankind into
two races, one red and_the other black. They classed
themselves among llu' i-ed men. Not only was Adam
