Excerpt from Two Lectures on the Connection Between the Biblical and Physical History of Man: Delivered by Invitation, From the Chair of Political Economy, Etc;, Of the Louisiana University, in December, 1848

Dear Sir: - Born in a slave State, and having passed our childhood and manhood in daily intercourse with the white and black races, it is but natural that you and I should have become deeply impressed not only by the physical but also by the moral and intellectual differences which exist between them: nor is it less natural that a doubt as to their common origin should suggest itself to our minds.

Twenty-five years of unceasing professional intercourse with these races, and study of their diseases, anatomy and physiology, a careful perusal of all the leading works published in the French and English languages on the Natural History of Man, from Camper and Blumenbach down to the present day, and an examination of the earliest known records of nations, both written and monumental, have not only served to strengthen this doubt in my mind, but have ripened it into a firm conviction that tho Almighty in his wisdom has peopled our vast planet from many distant centres, instead of one, and with races or species origin ally and radically distinct.
