by sovereigns leading them to aggressive wars, or repressing 
the aggressions of others. This has been recorded from the 
earliest history of Egypt in the Mosaic record, and still obtains, 
as is described by our enterprising explorers Livingstone, 
Speke, Sir Samuel Baker, and others. This race, consisting 
of many and various tribes, first indicates the execution of the 
second prerogative contained in the divine command. The 
first, “ To increase and multiply/ 3 being amply and fully per- 
formed throughout the whole animal kingdom ; but the second, 
“ To subdue the earth/ 3 has been for the first time exhibited by 
the Negro race in the usual form of subjugation, brutal wars, 
turbulent despotism, and oppressive slavery. 
The history of Egypt must early have exhibited the power- 
ful mixed races alternately, brown or black, in superiority. 
The ancient Egyptian hieroglyphic paintings, exhibited upon 
the pyramids and other ruined structures of ancient Egypt, 
indicate, even before the reign of the Pharaohs, the existence 
of negro sovereigns ; and there are other indications that the 
religion was a compound of Asiatic and Nigretian elements. 
The Brown, or Egyptain race, were evidently Asiatics, con- 
sisting principally of the Brown, and a certain mixture of the 
White races. Connected with these you find along the coast 
some of the Bed variety, which were an advanced class when 
compared with the Africans. This Bed or Brown variety was 
much more fully developed on the western continent of 
America, where the remains of the early structures of Mexico 
and Central America are the great monumental records from 
the earliest date of these races ; exhibiting structures very 
analogous to those of Egypt. 
The great discoveries in other parts of the world also show 
an early extension of the Brown race, as in the splendid monu- 
ments of Cambodia. Although we look to a very early date 
for the chronology of mankind of the sixth pre-Sabbatic day, 
still there must have been several fresh flows of population as 
the world enlarged. Thus we are inclined to consider that the 
Hindoo belongs to a later flow, possibly contemporaneous with 
the Adamic race. It is stated in North America that the Bed 
Aztecs appeared in North America at a comparatively recent 
date; about the 12th century. It is amongst these later races 
contemporaneous with the Adamic that we all enjoy the 
promises to Abraham. 
In opposition to the view of mankind being the offspring 
of a single pair, I would urge in regard to the Yellow, or 
Mongol race, from its very scattered points of existence, 
that neither the race in toto , nor the numerous scattered situa- 
tions where we find the Yellow race, could have originated
