Excerpt from The Conquest of Mexico, Vol. 2 Cortes dashed TO the assistance OF his secretary. The Anonymous Conqueror on p. 23 tells of horses being killed by maquahuitl blows on the head and breast. Such statements, supported by the Codices telleriano-remensis, Vaticanus A, Baranda, and the Lienzo di Tlaxcala, prove that horses were by no means always armour-plated.

Excerpt from The Conquest of Mexico, Vol. 1 From the outset, however, it was evident that the charm of such an adventure might be complicated by the necessity for an unusual amount of archaeological impedimenta, my objec tive being ancient Mexico, not modern Mexico, where almost every trace of the old splendour was long ago obliterated by Christian zeal. The Gods have fled that country, and now one finds some of them sitting in ghostly quiet in the British Museum.

Not illustrated. 1922 edition. Excerpt: ... Mexico. It would have much facilitated reference to his plates, if they had been numbered-- a strange omission! Page 29 (*).--The caciques, who submitted to the allied arms, were usually confirmed in their authority, and the conquered places allowed to retain their laws and usages. (Zurita, Rapport, p. 67.) The conquests were not always partitioned, but sometimes, singularly enough, were held tn common by the three powers.--Ibid., p. 11. Page 29 (*).--The Hon. C. A. Murray, whose imperturbable good humour under real troubles forms a contrast, rather striking, to the sensitiveness of some of his predecessors to imaginary ones, tells us, among other marvels, that an Indian of his party travelled a hundred miles in fourand-twenty hours. (Travels in N. America [New York, 1839], vol. i. p. 193.) The Greek, who, according to Plutarch, brought the news of victory at Platsea, a hundred and twenty-five miles, in a day, was a better traveller still. Some interesting facts on the pedestrian capabilities of man in the savage state are collected by Buffon, who concludes, truly enough, "L'homme civilise' ne connait pas ses forces."--(Histoire Naturelle; De la Jeunesse.)

(Herodotus, Hist., Urania, sec. 98, nec non Adnot. ed. Schweighauser.) Couriers are noticed, in the thirteenth century, in China, by Marco Polo. Their stations were only three miles apart, and they accomplished five days' journey in one. (Viaggi di...
