Note 3 — HUNTING A HOME IN BRAZIL.

Captain Lee informs me that in August, 1864, there sailed from Bahia a vessel containing over one hundred of these liberated negroes in families, men, and women, and children, who were bound for Africa, with the expectation of remaining in that country. They expressed a hope of being able to exert a favorable influence upon the natives, and it would be a very interesting part of their history to know whether they have lapsed into barbarism or have improved those with whom their lot is cast in Africa.
