Sxtrncta from a Correspondence of tin-Courier .1 out toil A (tumble in Rio. Eio dk Jankibo, April, 1871. JUo is a great liluco. From the Jiarhor I do not think I ever saw any thing more beautiful than the sur roundings. From tho city nothing ran bo prettier than tire harbor. The su gar-loaf, which guards tho entrance, is less than three-quarters of a mile from tho fort on the other sido, thus mak ing tho ontrnnee quite narrow. Once in, tho harbor runs off thirty milos or moro to tho haso of long ranges of mountains, and is in no place less than three miles across. There are seven ty islands in its waters, some of them mountains iu themselves. Nothing but hills and mountains back of the city are to be seen, from tho bay. Jbe peak of ‘‘Corcovatlo” rises bold and perpendicular somo thirty-live hundred feet, hack of tho city, while the blue tops of tho ‘‘Sierra dos Orgoaes,” when not covered with clouds, can be seen at the further end of the bay. Across the bay from liio nro the suburbs of “Victherohy” • aud “Praia Grande of Domingo.” These are connected with Eio by a line of Now York ferryboats running eveiy twenty minutes. Both sides of tho bay are lighted with gas, aud nothing can bo prettier than to soe from ship-board out in the stream these long lines of lights close to tho water’s edge, as regular as the foot lights on the boards of a theater. THE NEGEOES. The first thing that attracted my at tention, on on shore, was the wharves, built of solid granite with stops leading to the water’s edge. They will last for hundreds of years. Now York might well be proud of suchstrc tures in her harbor. There is no equal to it in the United States. Next earno the nogToes —tall, muscular fel lows. They are as fino a specimen of physique as ever I met. The women are well formod, tall and straight, with gaudy drosses from their waist down, au elaborately worked chemise above as white as snow, a many colored tur ban twice as large as a peck moasurc on their heads. They sit at the corners selling fruits of various kinds. All bundles, large or small, arc taking on tho heads of the negroes. I thought the one who got hold of my trunk would have a happy time of it, as it was so heavy I could hardly lift one end of it, but he made nothing of moun ting it on his head, and with a wad ding trot, goiug ovor a hull a mile with it. Tho food of the negroes is “sari na,” made from the “mandioca.” This prepared something like a mush, they roll into balls about tho sixo of a w al nut, and, with tho dexterity of a Chi naman with his chopsticks, throw Into their mouth. What struck mo with much interest was tho marks of their tribes on their faces. They are the true native African, somo of them of but two or three years’ imputation. Some had three perpendicular gashes on tboir cheeks ; others throe horizon tal cuts ; somo horizontal aud perpen dicular. Others wore marked from tho sido of their mouths back to the ears. Some had small cuts an inch or two apart on both sides of the back-bone all the way down. These cuts are ev idently made in youth, and filled with clay or some other substance to pre vent thoir uniting. They are general ly an intelligent-looking race, — I think much more so than tho negro of the States. TBE BTBEETS OF EIO are mostly narrow, not over eighteen or twenty feet wide, sidewalks and all; the gutter being in the centre. There is no curbing to tlio sidewalks, and they aro not raisod abovo the streets. The houses aro of every possible size and shapes from one story to four. There is a general resemblance, in them all. The roofs are covered with tiles ; these aro made of porous clay and re semble a section of stovepipo cut in two lengthwiso. Two of those are laid down, with the cupped part up, then one is inverted and placed over the joint, and all cemented together. It is said to be the coolest and most durable roofing that can bo had in this clim ate, lasting over hundrod years. Ev ery window has a balcony to it; from these, on tho under sides, tin tubes about three feet long, with bell-shapod ends, stand out at an angle of about twenty-five degrees from a perpendic ular, pouring streams of water, during a rain, right on ta tho sidewalks; con sequcntly shower end otlior Laths are cheap. Tho streets, having tho gutter in tho center, and sloping from the houses to tho center, aro, of course, impassable dur ing a rain ; but thero is a stout negro porter at every corner who will take you across on his back for a considera tion. Many of the houses aro very fanciful ornamonted with oijuuro peicco of porcelain or china of various pat terns and gay colors. They are about four inches each way, and aro sot in with mortar in the front of the houses in pillars, festoons and other fanciful ways; sometimes covering tho whole front of tho house. The house in which I am staying has even tho put ty, which holds the glass in tho, wind ows, gilded. • tVKALTH AND PEOPLE. There is a great deal of wealth in Bio, and the people are very intelli gent. In fact I believe they are nat ural linguists. I have seen several boys, not over sixteen, who speak En glish, German, Spanish, Portugese, French and Italian. In fact, almost every Brazilian of any education speaks French. It is a part of their education. When I look back at the States and see how few persons of mo derately fair education speak anything but English, and the poorest sort of that, I cannot but acknowledge that tho Brazilians are far ahead of us ia that respect. THC WONDERFUL OEOVE OE TALUS so often read of. I hardly know how to describe this garden. There are one hundred and ten palms in two rows—a fine gravel walk about forty feet wide running between them. These palms, set out as straight as an arrow, arc crossed at one end by an other path w ith übout as many palms on each side as in the first row: tho whole forms the letter T. A fountain from the aequeduot which supplies the city plays in tho center of tnis grove. Tho trees are perfectly straight, with no brachoß until near the top, where the wholo - cluster is. The whole tree is, I should say, about seventy-five high ; tho upper part of the trunk is peifectly green, tho lowor part is bot tle shaped. Every variety of palms is to he found in this garden, l'lots •of flowers between every walk, and of the brightest colors ; most of the waks are lined with hedges, trimmod up to square corners, fiat on the top, and are a little larger than at the ground. Those hedges are a perfect lino iu thoir trimming. So true and perfect are thoy that I first took them for blocks of wood cut out and painted green. Every kind of tropical nuit is found in tlris garden. Tho orange, lemon, pino apple, coi oanut, bread-fruit, mango, fig, guava, cflju banana, plantain, and I don’t know’ how many more, whose names I do not remember and the fruit I never saw before. Bowerscover ed w ith running vines, having scats un der them, were filled with humming birds of gayest plumage. Bamboo cane, in spotp, was grow ing so thick that a mouse could not liavo crawled through tho clusters. Tho canes wore forty foot high; somo of them, and per fectly straight Think of a fishingqiole as straight as an arrow, thirty or for ty long, not as large ns your wrist at the butt, with a perfect taper down to nothing. This garden is about one fourth as large as Central Bark, Now York, or about as large as Boston Common. Like tho park, it is not fin ished yot. A lino of horse cars ran to it from the city. This line is owned by somo New Yorkers, pays 40 per cent a year dividend, and tho stock can’t bo bought for money. Although negroes and whites are on an equality here (I mean the free negioes,) no man can ride in tho cars unless ho has on a cra vat and collar. The “Passeo Publico’’ is a smaller garden in the city on th 6 lino of cars. I am not sure it is not more beautiful than the “Jardin Botanieo.” The shade in it is exquisite. With a pool of water filled with fish, and swans, ducks, storks, cranes and fla mingoes swimming about, the place of fers moro attractions than any other in Eio. This garden is on the hay. A sea wall twenty foet high protects it from the water, againsi which the waves dash in stormy weather w’ith considerable forco. Near tho top of t’ri3 wall in tho garden is a platform about forty feet wide, laid in mosaic, wdth marblo blocks. Gas lights ariso from tho wall, and are suspendod from brackets on tho other sido of the walk. It is a beautiful promonado, and is generally crowded of an evening. From this place there is a viow’ of the bay, the open son, the suburbs across tiro bay, and all the surrounding scen ery. A moro beautiful place I think I never saw. There is still another public place in tho city, in which, on a pedestal full thirty feet high, is a very fine equestrian statuo of Pedro the First. It is a very finely executed peice of work, and is a great ornament to tho city. I think it was dono in England. Moot of tho trade of Ilio is with England aud Franco. BRAZILIAN CUSTOMS. Many of tho customs here, to an American, are very singular When you call on any oao at their house, instead of knocking or ringing a bell, you enter the house, go to tho top of tho stairs, and clap your hands threo times. When one calls anotlior on tho street, instead of say ing halloo or calling tho name,ho says ‘‘hush,” leaving off the first h. Ladies do not go to tho stores, as in tho States. The men do all the shopping, or itiner ant peddlers call at tho houses. I saw a young married woman a few days since at a window, aud was told she haJ not put her foot on the ground in two years. That would, not suit an American woman very well. TTIE MARKET. is quite a curiosity. Thero you can got any kind of fruit, fruits of tho Em piro and fruits from tho river Platte, such as apples and pears, bananas, &c. Orangos are of eourso plontifui and cheap. The finest of beef is sold at ten cents a pound. Fish of any kind, and all kinds abound. I havo never seen such a fish markot, such a variety—oysters, crabs, lobsters, in fact anything from a shrimp (of which there are thousands hero) to a shark, of which there are a few. Monkeys, parrots, birds of all kind, earthern ware, grocories, in fact anything that ono wants, and a good deal that they don’t, is to bo found in the market.— Most of tho market women are ne groes, and so tho men for that matter. Did you ever cut a banana ? If not, try it, and you will, by a sharp sight and long stretch of the imagination, seo in it a cross, that is if they aro like thoso here. A Brazilian never cuts a banana on that account. THE WEATHER. Wo have bore at eleven o’clock a soa breeze until night; during the night thero is a land breeze. It is very warm before tho breeze gets in, but the nights are cool and pleasant. Some days, since I havo been here, were a little hotter than anything I over experienced; and yet the ther mometer stood at only 85 degrees.— Now the weather is beginning to be delightful ; by th? middle of April it will be cool and pleasant, and remain so for six or eight months. lam told that this year, summer, which usually begins about the Ist of December, did not eonmunce until the 15th of Feb ruary ; that was only two weeks before wo arrived. The water here is not brought into the houses. At every street corner are largo water cocks, with a large stone underneath, on which to rest the piggin-shaped vessel, holding about twelve gallons. At all hours of the day negroes can be seen here filling these vessels, which they carry off on their heads. Thero arc some few Americans here, but the greatest number of foreigners speaking English are English and Germans. Can you “falla I’of tugozY It is indispensable to success bore. 1 an} studying it as hard as I etui, but I don’t know anything of it yet, save a few phrases. Whether I shall ever master it remains to be seen. I have known of somo who were well edu cated and smart who never could ac quire it. Ido not think I have much talent for language, but I’m going to try it awhile and soe what I can do at it. The black Warren Ordway, which brought us out, has returned. I hated to see it go; it was almost like parting from tho last link I held with the States. I trust one of these days the time will roll around when I can re turn. Ido not want to stay hero fix) long, for those Americans who have been hero any length, of time like tho place so well they do not care to go hack to the United States. 1 think this cliinato will agroo with mo, if it doesn’t get too hot. To-day is warm, the thermometer standing at 88 de grees. There has been no yellow fe ver or cholera here this year, and there are no flies or mosquitoes. Fleas there are in abundance, but they do not trouble mo a3 flies did of old in the States. Eua Dirota is the Wall street of Eio ; it is narrow at both ends, but whore the imperial palaoo is, it widens out to thirty feet with a sido walk about forty. It is odd to see a side walk wider than the street. TUE KMPEEOE PBItBO TIIK 11. has his palace about four miles from the business part of tho city ; he has also a palace on Rua direta, wlioro ho puts up duiing his visits to town. I saw him and tho Empress the first day I came on shore ; he wont by in a car riage drawn by six mouse-colored mules w ith a body-guard of cavalry in front and ono in the rear. They went by as fast as the mules could go. The Emperor did not stop his carriage and got out to shako hands with me, but l excused him as it was tho first day I had been on shore, aud ho did not know that I had arrived. Os course he will make up for it next time he comes. Eio is a great place, and if it was settled by live, active Americans, could bo made tho prettiest place in tho world. The scenery can’t be sur passed, and’the bay is moro than beau tiful. There are six or eight steam ers that come hero every month from Europe, the river Platte, and Ameri ca. But one, I believe, goes to New York, and that takes tho mail. "What I have seen of the Brazilians induces mo to think they are a very pleasant, affable people, intelligent and shrewd. Almost all the ladies play well on the piano, and there must bo quite a num in Rio. I have not seen mueh of tho people or tho country yot, so cannot foim a very coiroct opinion. If I cau learn tho language 1 think I shall like tho people ; and if they wouhl only do as much for Eio as nature has, it would bo one of the greatest places in the world. They have two steam rail roads already running, and, on Satur day there is a general holiday to cele brate tho completion of a third. F. P. JVE 18-* .J « S £i( TISEMEJTTS.
