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.

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.
