, with a high pommel and cantle, which are frequently of solid silver, the stirrups, the long spurs, and the clumsy bit, all of the same costly material. Over the horse's back is stretched an anquera, or cover- ing of stamped and gilded leather, or of black fur adorned with gold. Every variety of gaudy colour, uniforms of scarlet and gold, large Mexican hats with 256 MEXICO.
gold ornaments, and stamped leather boots, complete tlie cavalier's equipment. The seat in the saddle is a wretched one t...o English eyes, its form compelling the rider to lean with his body forward and legs thrown back, with tlie toes only just touching the stirrups, which hang behind the girths : yet the Mexicans are admirable horsemen and manage their steeds with much grace and ease.
At evening the streets are all alive again. The bright fires shine out from the braziers that keep hot the tortillas and ragouts sold in the open air. Boys run- with blazing torches before the carriages on their way to the theatre ; officers press their way to the cafe or the gaming tables ; whilst in the Merchants' Arcades a gossipping crowd collects to discuss past or future revolutions.
