Here most of the principal inhabitants and best-dressed people resort in all seasons, except the period of rains and northern storing, many to make purchases, but more for the pleasure ccilng and being seen,” and to gossip and lounge about till t sunrise they return home—take their “ first’? and go to bed again till “eleven o'clock. At t time, with ships of war blockading the coast and threatening their gates, the market cannot present the same variety as usual; under ordinary circumstance: however, few places of public resort in any part of the | world can present a more motley aud picturesque ap- pemrance. ‘There you may sve merchants of various countries, chiefly “English, American, and French, chatting, with a cigar in one hand and a huge slico of crimson water melon in the other, and the English viee- consul choosing a new straw hat while the commandante of the garrison is drinking cocoa-not _m ‘The small farmers, if one may honour any of the indolent Mexican cultivators of the soil with auch a designation, present an appearance almost as showy, and far more romantic, than the military, and do not’come, for the most part, on business or the display of their produce, so much as to display themselves, ‘The officers of the army are gaily dressed in white and gold, or red and white with broad silver lace; while those of the navy appear in blue and gold,and the artillery officers wear the same but with red facings. ‘The Mexican farmer, when not actually engaged in the disposal of Lis produce in the market, comes prancing across the country on his little mettle= some and highly-caparisoned steed, and dashos into the market-place a4 a cabellero, He pulls up abruptly with a great dust, a great jingling of brass and silver buttons and ornaments; alights amidst the cloud of dust and sand he has raised, like one who has performed kome feat of skill to adaniration, and enters the market with a stately air of graceful vainglory, appearing conscious of general approbation, and anxious to display a gencral courtesy to everybody in return, His diese is almost in- variably of some dark velveteon, slashed in the arms and open at the knees, so as to display very white and fine linen underneath, either very full, or else neatly crimped, worked, and «. His sombreron has a small round crown, with a very large beim, eneireled by a silken cord and gold or silver tassel, A large white hankerehief is often worn under his hat, with the broad augalar points hanging down over one shoulder, His buttons and hooks-and-eyes, and clasps, and buckles, ure very numer- ous, anc most of them are of silver. His horre’s bridle is heavy with silver, and he wears along sheathed | or sword at his side, depending gracefully and th: - ingly from a belt round his waist, and ‘gently swaying beside his left thigh.

Tho most busy among all the visiters of the market aro, of course, the masters of the diferent fendas; and, in fact, of ali the houses of refreshment; the pi prietors of ihe punch-vhops coming to buy lumps of ice for their punch, the ico being brought down to the market by native Indians from the mountain Orizaba. ‘The vegetables are in great abundance, and present a very gay and bright appearance, owing to the crowded number of baskets filled with scarlet and yellow tomatas, and with pepper pickle-pods of all sizes, ind as bright a8 flame. The fruita are large and luscious, the water melons being the most numerous, and after them the pine-apples.” The meat department of the market Is odious, both to the sight and smell.
