APPENDIX. 
The contrast between the Moorish and Negro characters, is as great, as 
that between the nature of their respective countries ; or between their form 
and complexion. The Moors appear to possess the vices of the Arabs, 
without their virtues; and to avail themselves of an intolerant religion, to 
oppress strangers : whilst the Negroes, and especially the Mandingas, unable 
to comprehend a doctrine, that substitutes opinion or belief, for the social 
duties, are content co remain in their humble state of ignorance. The hospi- 
tality shewn by these good people to Mr. Park, a destitute and forlorn stran- 
ger, raises them very high in the scale of humanity: and I know of no fitter 
title to confer on them, than that of the Hindoos of Africa: at the same 
time, by no means intending to degrade the Mahomedans of India, by a 
comparison with the African Moors,
