many, Dom Pedro has withered left
arm, due to an accident at his birth.
Notwithstanding this. he has become
quite practiced horseman and cyclist.
Hitherto he has been brought up with
great strictness, and he is far behind
even French and German boys of his
own age. Under the circumstances it
would be preposterous to send out SO
callow and delicate youth to take
part in any, coup d'etat at Rio,
unless he could storm the national
capital with chocolate creams and
blockade Bahia with iced Nesselrode
pudding. those being the two delica-
cies which have hitherto possessed a
far greater interest for him than any
dynastic or political movement.
