The chapels of the interior are perhaps a little tawdry withtheir profuse gilding, and the main altar is dazzling with gold, havingcost, it is stated, over a hundred thousand dollars. The pulpit isespecially curious, and was carved by a native artist from onyx, whichcame from a neighboring quarry. The floor is of marble, while that ofthe more pretentious edifice at the city of Mexico is of wood, a tokenindicative of more important matters wherein the Puebla cathedral issuperior in finish. The m...ain roof, with its castellated cornice and manypinnacles, its broken outlines, and crumbling, gray old stone sides, iswonderfully picturesque.
Not many years ago there hung from the lofty ceiling a famous and mostbeautiful golden lamp of exquisite workmanship, the intrinsic value ofwhich is said to have been over one hundred thousand dollars. During thecivil war it was ruthlessly broken up and coined into doubloons to aidGeneral Miramon to keep the field while representing the church party. The bells attached to the cathedral are of the most costly character andof superior excellence.
