While at Acapulco, visited the Castle, where
we found some FIVE or ak British sailors detained
there for q month or more from the English Bark
Timsndrs, and l have reason to believe very
Justly confined by the authorities at the insEgeton
OF the Captain; we also found confined in the same
Castle sixteen Mexicsns, all chained together in
one room. with one large OK chain attached to
their snkles-here we also saw the stocks where
at times are confined the prisoners either by their
feet, or so arranged as to conine their necks if
need be-the room wherein were confined the 10
black Mexicans was perhaps 20 feet by 40, with
one small window and grated door which commu-
Dicstes with room Of similar dimensions, occupied
by the six British saiIors-thus giving the latter the
full benefit Of all the delitrous air consequent upon
their close quarters.
The streets Of Acapaco are swept daily by
prisoners chained together two andtwo. 1t is the
cleane,t city ever vas in, and stood out 10 bold
contrast with the lie and dirty city OF Panama.
At Acapulco there were about one hundred for.
signers waiting passage for San Francisco among
others, we took off ttco young ladies', daughters Of
Captain Porter who had been detained there four
monthr waiting a chance to Join their parents
who bad left them there nearly six months
previous, for the purpose of learning the Spanish
language expecting that in ttco months they
would get passage. Instead OF thatthey were ds-
tanned SIX months nearly, and when they came on
board they found it difficult to converse huenily
and readily in their native language. CHANNISG.
