With a pleasure somewhat similar to that expressed by Gil Bias, when he escaped from the robbers' cave, we quitted Arkeeko. Among all the descriptions of men I have ever met with, the character of the half- civilized savages found at Arkeeko is the most detest- able, as they have ingeniously contrived to lose all HE LEAVES ARKEEKO. 153 the virtues of the rude tribes to which they belonged, without having acquired anything but the vices of their more civilized neighbours. The only descrip- tion ...I recollect that would particularly suit them, may be found in Mr. Bruce's very energetic account of the inhabitants of Sennaar. " It is very singular that Salt, who thus invariably corroborates Bruce in all the principal features of his history, should have been, as we shall shortly see, so completely carried away by the party spirit which existed against him. " Adversity, " it has been justly remarked, " makes men friends ;" but, though Bruce and Salt suffered at Masuah and Arkeeko under the same rod, yet the latter even there takes every oppor- tunity of supporting Lord Valentia in his petty attempt to convict Bruce of " falsehood" and " exaggeration.
