EASTER DAY IN MEXICO. One of the Most Festive Occasions In the Holiday Calendar. A letter to the St. Louis Globe-Democrat says: In Mexico everything is festivity to day. To the Holy Week of mournful relig ions ceremonials bus succeeded a holiday in which all are participating. The character of the church ceremonials during the last three days was lugubrious in the extreme, but! a stranger the streets of the capital and the suburban pleasure resorts, where the doleful scenes of the Saviour’s passions were presented in nuvst realistic manner, seemed more Vke picnic resorts to which tlie jiopuUition had resorted for a day's pleasure and enjoyment than places 01 penitence and penance. To-day all of sadness and sorrow has be t forgotten, and the whole population ha- anted out in the brightest colors to celebrate one of the most festive occasions in the holiday calendar of the Mexican republic. There are t liree plazas— Be Torres—within the limits of the capital, in which perform ances of unusual merit are given, and at Tlalncpantlu, a short distance from the city, is another. It is needless to say that all the plazas are crowded. That in which your correspondent is seated is fairly filled with the elite of the capital, it having been thrown open to the public to-day for the first time. Diego Prieto, who fought as alternate with Mazzantini, is here as first sword, Juan Moreno, surnamed “The Americano,” is the other. The qttadrilla has entered in exquisite costumes of sky-blue, vermilion, old gold, red, dark blue and silver. The bull is light brown. Ho has disemboweled two horses which have to be removed from the plaza. A banderillero plants a pair of barbs, but in doing so has his forehead ripped open by om- of the. widespread horns of the bull, and, though ho bravely tries to plant another pair, has to leave this plaza with blood gushing from his face. After more play Moreno takes the sword, and Diego Prieto goes to his assistance with the cape. Prieto in playing with the cape is struck by the bull’s horns in the side and face and is removed from the tang, and the quadrillo is left without a captain. Moreno, however, amid yells of caution from the spectators, thrusts the sword to the hilt. The bull bellows with rage anti the enthu siasm is intense. The him does not, die till another thrust is given, aud the attack and defense elicit the wildest applause. A black bull enters for the second round, aud as he plunges into the arena the specta tor exhibit their appreciation of his ferocity by deafening cheers. The pieadores fight on horses whose flank*- and breasts are pro teeted bv leather shields like those which preceded them, and succeed in saving the animals from being disemboweled, but not from being disabled. The bull is a mag nificent fighter, und as the baflderillas do their work a shower of silver dollars and tinsel-covered cigars fall around the mem bers of the troop us Moreno again advances with the sword. Diego Prieto is seen entering the ring with bandaged head ami face, ami wild shouts rent the nir, for even the Americans pres ent, of whom there is a large number, can not help appreciating this exhibition of bravery and courage. Prieto advances with the cape, m,-ikes some brilliant plays, but is finally ordered to retire by tlie Chief of Police, and the admit big spectators are glad to see him removed from danger. The bull, after being stabbed twice by Moreno, falls from exhaustion and is killed by the enuhet ero. The quadrilla is ajrain without its Cap tain when a heavy, dark brown bull entere. The play of the picador is magnificent, and one who fought with Mazzantim alter ids face had been torn with the sand and gravel of the arena, filled with the enthusiasm of his profession and forgetful of all sense of personal danger, flings his sombrero among the enthusiastic spectators, and returning to the charge bus tiis horse turned around and around, but escapes from danger. The planting of the banderillas renders the bull hah; rioably furious, and he jumps high in the nir. Then the banderilla whose fore land was torn by the horns of the first bull again enters the aiona with his head ban daged, and unlike Prieto is allowed to par ticipate again in the performance. Moreno docs not handle the sv rd so well this time, but after several thrusts the bull finally falls and the fourth enters. lie is a lively runner, and rapidly chases the upas around the arena. Koine of the cupas quickly turn him as many as four times withe it running, and he bellows with fury, but will not attack the pieudore.s. The bugle blows and the bull is turned from the areua for his failure to attack the horses. The fifth enters in a fury, but in bis wild run is received by the capns, who twist and turn him tiil he falls on his haunches. One of the picadores is unhorsed, but hangs to the bridle and is immediately removed. The other picador is the next attacked, but re tains ills seat. Then again the other is at tacked, and next the former. His horse shies, and the rider jumps to his feet. The horse fails to the earth pierced to the heart by the horns of the bull. The banderillas ar skillfully plant'd, and the spectators go wild wi’ 'a enthusiasm at tho brilliant dis play of skill. The sword is plunged into the hull's neck, and he drops dead. Another bull enters, which is soon re turn's i to the corral U “cause of his failure to attack the horses. The rain, which has boon falling at this hour during the last week, interferes with the perforriiance, but tho spectator* are scaled with open um brellas and the performances continue. The next bull enters the arena and de votes Ins whole attention to the horses. one of which fails under the rider, end while in the throes of death is repeatedly pierced wit h liic horns of the bull. The swordsman again fail* to do the killing according to the wishes of tin- spectators, and it is only after several ineffectual attempts that the bull is killed by the caehetero. The last bull chases horses and capes around tho ring, and displays such vicious liess that Buenavenda, who has tried tho sword several times without fatal effect, though with great dexterity, escapes away by the arena and tho bull is finally thrown by two lariats skillfully manipulated by two horsemen and is dispatched by the cachet ero. The latest novelty advertised is a bull fight, by electric light, which will take place in a few (lavs in the Plaza do Calon. What tho result of this experiment will be is en tirely problematical, and the novel specta cle of a bull tight by electric light after tlie dosing of the business houses is expected to draw uu enormous crowd. A hill rejieaiing the law licensing bull fighting in fist Federal districts will Is l pre sented in Congress. F.nonnous expense him been incurred in the construction of plazas within and near tile city limit-, and the owneri of the plazas will naturally aritogo nize the rejieai of the law under which they risked their investments. Forty Deputies are said to lie pledged to if* repeal, and every one is asking how much lobbying will Isi necessary to prevent tho passage of tho bill. HKUKKKM.
