country can boast of. The lead and iron
are said to exist in state of pure metal

it had been divested of its dross in a fur

pig iron: so says the Philadelphia

DESCRIPTION OF TIE XOCHICALCO,
OR THE.IIOUSE OF FLOWERS.

DESCRIPTION OF TIE XOCHICAICO,
OR THE.HOUSE OF FLOWERS.
An hour after, we reached the base of
the hills which apparently form detach-
ed group in the table land. For many
miles previously we had observed and
repeatedly crossed an ancient paved
causeway, about eight feet in breadth,
composed Of large stones tightly wedg-
ed together, and running directly over
plain and barranca, towards the bill OF
Xochicalo.
The strange mould of the summit OF
the steep hill on the left, as we entered
the group by small valley, had long
drawn our attention, asst appeared TO be
surrounded by a regular rampant; but
incline to think that it may be the natn-
raj formation.
At the termination of the little valley
above mentioned, we arrived at length
at the foot of the eminence which was
the principal object Of our excursion.
The circuit Of the hill Of Xochlcalo,
or the House Of Flowers, may perhaps
measure three miles, and its perpendicu-
lar height about three hundred feet.--
The opinion has becnhazzarded, that the
whole mass is artificial but it is one !
cannot entertain for a moment, as its
whole position and general conhguratlon
show it to be one Of the group, though
there is no doubt but its entire surface,
great as il is. has been subjected to a
general design, and cased from its sum-
init to its base with artificial work, 49,
The decay Of centuries, at the same time
that i has injured many Of the details,
yet allows the general plan to be detec-
ted. Even the broad moat, which enclr-
cled the whole, remains perfectly dis
tinct.
Alighting from our horses at the foot
Of the hill, which is partially covered
with dry brushwood and leafless trees.
we scrambled upward, from one stage e
another, over the crumbling stonework
