"One of the most interesting American visitors that London has seen for some time is un- doubtedly Mr. Henry Collins Walsh, who arrived here a few days ago from Morocco, where he had an exciting series of adventures. Few men seem to have such a relish for exploration as Mr. Walsh. It seems like the other day that we heard of him as a member of a party of Arctic adventurers, and the delights of being shipwrecked in Polar waters were described in a very instructive manner in the book which he entitled, "The Last Cruise of the Mir- anda." He kindly allows mc to reproduce a pic- ture of a young lady whom he met in very exclu- sive Esquimaux society; and to return to the other extreme of atmospheric condition, there is a view of a comfortable desert in Morocco, in which he is accompanied by members of his party, a camel, and a bicycle on the top of the camel."
