Then came ** the good Samaritan," or some such apologue ; and, lastly, I related to them a portion of the life of Christ, and ex- plained to them the object of his death and sufferings. The latter part of my service always seemed to interest them greatly ; but, indeed, they behaved throughout with much attention.
Unluckily, the head driver, who was one of the most zealous of my disciples, never could repeat the responses of the Litany without an appeal to myself, and always made a point of sayi...ng — " Good Lord, deliver us ; yes, sir ! " and made me a low bow.
Like my friend the Moravian, at Mesopotamia, I cannot boast of any increased audience ; and if the negroes will not come to hear massa, I have little hope of their giving up their time to hear Dr. Pope, who inspires them with no interest, and can exert no authority. Indeed, I am afraid that I am indebted for the chief part of my present auditory to my quality of massa rather than that of priest ; and when I ask any of them why they did not come to prayers on the preceding Sunday, their excuse IDLENESS OF THE NEGROES.
