Other excursions were made to the volcano of Popo- catapetl, 17, 800 feet high, which is always covered with snow, and which produces large amounts of very fine sulphur ; also to the extensive silver mines of Real del Monte and to the cities of Puebla and Jalapa, the former, the capital of the State of Jalapa, with 78, 000 inhabitants, numerous fine church and convent edifices 120 and fortifications and the ancient Pyramid in its vicinity. Passing Meca-Meca on the journey to Morelia, the capita...l of Michoacan with 25, 000 inhabitants and some commerce, the sacred mountain of the Aztecs comes in view. During my stay in the city of Mexico I was also favored with the kindness of the Minister Senor Romero Rubio of the Cabinet of President Gonzales, having previously been introduced to the then Ex-President of Mexico, Senor Porfirio Diaz, by the late Ex-President of the United States, General Grant, at a banquet given in honor of these two gentlemen by the Mayor of the city of New Orleans. My last trip to the coast was performed from Michoacan to Manzanillo, where I procured passage on one of the Pacific Mail Steamship Company s steamers for San Fransisco.
