Overview

Excerpt from Algeria: The Topography and History, Political, Social, and Natural of French Africa The regeneration of man is daguerreotyped in characters of light, but we are blind to God's photographic art the age of reason and the reign of love is rapped out by unearthly hands on our parlour tables, but we are deaf to the summons of the seventh heaven. To tunnel the Atlantic and electrify China were thought sober prose, and shares in a gas - company at J eddo would be at a premium to-morrow; but to irrigate the desert, set free the Poles, and make Europe Christian, is too much for our faith.
