CHAPTER VIII.

A BUSINESS MAN IN TENOCHTITLAN.

! Xow, the Chaican, was supposed to be th:

richest citizen, exciusive of the nobles, in Tenochtitlan. Amongst other properties, h« \ovued a house on tie eastern side of the |Tlatelo tianguez, or market-pl.ce; which, j Whether cousidered architecturally, or with jre.erence to the business to which it was devoted, or as the device of an unassoilzied heathen was certainly very remaikable. lis |p rtico had six great columns of white marble jalternating six others of green porphyry, with a roof guarded by a parapet intricately and tastefully carved; while coushioned lounges, heavy curtains, festooned and flashing with cochineal, and a fountain of water pure enong» for the draught of a king, all within the columns, perfected it as a retreat from the suliry summer sun,

The house thus elegantly garnished was not a meson, or a cafe ora theatre, or a broker's ottice ; but ratner a combination of them all, and therefore divided into many apartmeuts; of which one was for the sale of beverages favourite among the wealthy and nobi Aztecs —Bacchic inventions, with putque fo chief staple, since it had the sanction of

fantiquity and was mildly intoxicating ; janother was a restaurant, where thir jcusine was only excelled at the roya {table; indeed, there was a story abroad that

the king had several times borrowed te ser- vices of the Chalean’s artistes; but, whether derived from the master or his slaves, the shrewd reader will co clude from it, that the science of advertising wss known and prac tised as wel! in Tenochtitian as in Madrid. Nor were these all. Under the same roof wre rooms for the amusement of patrons— itor reading,smoking and g+mes; one in esp. cia | for a play of hazard cailed tofologue, then very | popular, because a passion of Montezuma’s. tinally, as entertainments not prohibited by the teotuctdi, a signal would, at any time, summon a minstrel, a juggler, or a dancing- girl. Hardly need I say that the establish- ment was successful. Always ringing with music, and of nights resplendent with lamps, it was always overflowing with custom.

** So old Lepajs wanted yon to be a mer- chant,” said tne Chalcan, in his full, round voice, as, comtortably seated under the cur- tains of his purtico, he smoked his pipe, and talked with our young friend, the ‘Liiuancan,

** Yes. Now that he is old he thinks war dangerous.”

‘* You mistake him, boy. He merely thinks with me, that there is something more real in wealth and many slaves. As he has grown older, he has grown wiser.”

* Ag youwill. I could not be a merchant.”

“Whom did you think of serving ?”

‘* The ’tzin Guatamo,”

‘“*T know him. He comes to my portico sometimes, but not to borrow money. You see, I frequently act as broker, and take deposits from the merchants and securities from the spendthrift nobles; he, however, has no vices. When not with the army, he passes the time in study; though they say he goes a great deal to the palace to make love to the princess. And now that I reflect, i doubt if you can get place with him.”

** Why so?”

‘‘Well, he keeps no idle train, and the time is very quiet. If he were going to the frontier it would be different.”

** Indeed!”

** You see, boy, he is the bravest man and best tighter in the arm); and the sensible fellows of moderate skill and ambition have no fancy for the hot place in a fight, which is generally where he is.”

“The discredit is not to Mother !” said Hualpa, laaghing.

The broker stopped to cherish the fire in his pipe—an act which the inexperienced consider wholly incompatible with the pro- found reflection he certainly indulged. W hen jnext he spoke it was with smoke wreathing his round face, as white clouds sometimes wreathe the full moon.

**About an hour ago a fellow came here and said he had heard that Iztlil’, the Tezcucan, had challenged the ‘tzin to go into the arena with him to-morrow. Nota bad thing for the

tieir shields hung up in a portico on the other side of the square yonder ; after which they are understood to be the challengers of an equal number of warriors who dare become champions of the god or gods in whose honor tne celebration is had. Think of the approv- el skiil and valor of the foe; think of the thoussads who will be present ; think of your own inexperience in war, and of your youth, your stature hardly gained, your muscles hardly matured ; think of everything tending to weaken your chances of success—and then speak to me.”

Hualpa met the sharp gaze-of the Chalean steadily, and answered, *“*I am thought to nave some skill with the bow and maguahwitl. (ret me the opportunity and I will fight.”

And Xoii, who was a sincerg friend, re- flected a while. ‘* There is peril in the under- aking, to be sure; but then he is resolved to ve a warrior, and if he survives, it is glory at once gained, fortune at once made” ‘Then he Loe and, smiling, said aloud, * Let +s go to

he portico. If the list be not fu'l, you shall

have the arms—yes, by the Sun! as the ordiy Aztecs swear-—the very best in Tenoch- itlan,”

Aud, they lifved the curtains, and stepped nto the tianguez, (the great market-place or square of Tlateloco). The light of the fires uu the temples was hardly mere in strength han the shine of the moon; so that torches had to be set up at intervals over the cele- rated square. Ona an ordinary occasion, with s Visitation of forty thousand busy buyersand sellers it was a show of merchants and mer- cbantable staples worthy the chiet mart of an empire so notable; but now, drawn by bhe double attraction of market and celebration, the multitude that thronged it was trebly greater; yet the order was perfect,

An officer, at the bead of a patrol, passed them witha prisener.

‘**Ho, Chalean! If you would see justice done, follow me.”

‘*Thanks, thanks, good friend; 1 have been before the judges too often already.”

So the preservationof the peace was no mystery.

The friends made way slowly, giving the Tihvancan time to gratify bis curiosity. He found the place like a great national fair, in which few branches of industry were unre- presented. There were smiths who worked in the coarser metals, and jewelers skillful as those of Europe; there were makers and ‘dealers in furniture, and sandals, and plumaje; at one place men were disposing of fruits, lowers and vegetables ; not tar away fisher- men boasted their stock caught that day in the fresh waters of Chaico; tables of pastry and maize bread were set next the quarters of the hunters of Xilotepec; the armorers, clothiers aud deale:s in cotton were each of them a separate host. In no land where a science has been taught or a book written have the fine arts been dishonored ; and so in the great market of Tenochtitlan there were no galleries so rich as those of the painters, nor wasany craft allowed such space for their exhibitions as the sculptors.

They halted an instant before the porch fullofslaves Arapid giance at the miser-

able wretches, and Xoli said, pitilessly, **Bah! Mictian has many such, Let us go.”

(To be Continued.)

A Feare Wanted.

Srr,— Having an hour to spare in Souris the other day, I strolled around to the shore road where the unfortunate sxilor Strople fell over. I was surprised to find no fence on the sea- shore side, and the bank in places forty feet high and nearly perpendicular. The road winds dangerously near the bank in many places. The wonder is not that Strople was ki led, but that some one who does not in- dualge in the ardent was not killed by falling over the cliff before. A ludicrous incident happened near the spot of the recent fatal accident. Some ladies were passing along this road in the winter, and by some mis- chance one of them fell over in the descent. Her clothing acted as a parachute, and a snow bank at the bot om of the cliff supplied a cold

bath -moresafethan pleasant. This road should be fenced immediately.

As soon as it became known that, by the king’s choice, they were the challengers, the young fellows about the palace shunned the sport, and there was danger that the god would find himself with- outachampion.

‘J pray your pardon, Xoli; but you siid, I think, that the iords hang back trom the danger. Can anyone volunteer ?”

** Certainly; any one why is a warrior, and isintime. Are you of that mind?”

The Chalcan tock down the pipe and looked at him earnestly.

** If I had the arms——”

“But you know nothing about it—not even how such combats are conducted.”

The broker was now astonished.

*s Listen to me,” he said. ‘* These com- bats are always in honor of some one or more of the Aztecan gods—generally of Huitzil’, ‘od of war. They used to be very simple affairs. A smaj] platform or stone, of the height of a man, was put up in the midst of the tiangues, 89 as to be seen by the people standing around; and upon it, in pairs, the champions fought their duels. This, how- ever, was too plain to suit the tastes of the last Montezuma; and he changed the ceremony into a spectacle really honorable and great.

Some time previous the quarters of the prisoners taken in battle are -xamined, and twoor more of the best of the warriors found there are chosen by the king, and put in training for the occasion. They are treated fiiriy, and are told that if they fisht and win, they shall be crowned as heroes and returned to their tribes. No need, I think, to tell you how brave men fight when istimutated by hope of glory and hope of life.
