African tribes, or a Sedgwick and Wadsworth under the
battle-field's hail of death, but rather are to be found
everywhere, where a human spirit quails before the tempter, or
wavers in its allegiance to God ? If a painter with the most
consummate art should draw you two scenes?one, that of a Columbus
