The City of Mexico.

The city of Mexico is said to be the
finest built city on the American cent?
nent. In some respects it certainly is
so. In the principal streets the houses
are all constructed according to the
stric,est architectural rules. The foun-
daions of the city were laid, and the
FIRST buildings were erected by Cortes,
who did everything well which he at
tempted-from building houses and
writing coupletto conquering an EN-
pire. Many Of the finest buildings in
Mexico are still owned by his descend
ants. The public square is said to be
unsurpassed by any in the world; it
contains some twelve or fourteen acres
paved with stone. The cathedral CO.
vers an entire side, the palace another;
the western side is occupied by row
of very high and substantial houses,
the second stories of which project into
the street the width of the pave
ment; the lower stories are occu-
pied by the principal retail merchants
of the city. The most of these houses
were built by Cortes, who, with his
characteristic sagaeity and an avarice
which equally characterised him in the
latter part of his life, selected the best
portion Of the town for himself
The Presidents palace, formerly the
palace of the viceroys, is an immense
building of three stories high, about
five hundred feet in length, and three
hundred wide; it stands on the site of
the palace OF Montezuma. 1t is diff.
cult to conceive of so much stone and
mortar being put together in less
tasteful and imposing shape; it has
much more the appearance of a cotton
factory or peni:entiary than what it
really is; the windows are small, and
parapet wall runs the whole length of
the building, with nothing to relieve
the monotony of lis appearance except
some very Indifferent ornamental work
in the centre; there are no doors in the
front either in the second or third sto-
ries-no,hing but disproportionately
small windows, and too many of them;
the three doors, and there are only three
in the lower story, are destitute of all
architectural beauty or skill. Only a
very small part of this palace is appro-
priatedtot the residence ofthe President;
all the public Offices are here, including
those Of the heads of the different de-
partments; ministers of war, foreign
relations, finance and justice, the pub
lie treasury, &c. The halls of the house
of deputies and of the senate are also
in the same building, and last and least,
the botanic garden. After passing
through all sorts Of filth and dirt on the
basement story, you come to dark
narrow passage which conducts you 10
a massive door, which when You have
succeeded in opening, you enter an
apartment enclosed with high walls on
every side, but open at the top, and
certainly not exceeding eighty fee,
square, and this is the botanic garden
ofthe palace of Mexico; few shrubs
and plants and the celebrated manita.
