New York Post,
 Some of these days a clever historian will discover and publish the daily bill of fare which Montezuma offered the nobles of his court. It must have been very excellent. judging from the relics which have survived the clash Of war and centuries. The tamale. the chili con carne and the tortilla are three dishes of which we know considerable. and of late years we have begun to learn something about the sweetmeats upon which the children in the Aztec homes once regaled themselves. They are still made by the Aztec Indians, and more es- pecially the Mayas at the present time, and occasionally a few are brought by travellers in this city.
