Un Zambo Muerto!" the group opened, and we saw, lying dead upon the ground, one of our horrible antagonists of the preceding night. "Good God, what is that?" cried Rowley and I, with one breath. "Un demonio! a devil!" "Perdonen vos, Senores Un Zambo mono muy terribles los Zambos. Terrible monkeys these Zambos." "Monkeys!" cried I.
I was not quite deformed enough; but they set that right with an artificial hump and made the most of this foot and arm And the Zambos are not critical; they're easily satisfied if only they can get hold of some live thing to torture the fool's dress makes a good deal of difference, too. "The only difficulty was that I was so often ill and unable to play.
He was struck with the great number of Indians, of zambos, of chiños, who were wandering about the streets; these men, who usually took an active part in the sports of the Amancaës, were now walking silently with singular pre-occupation.
This strange mixture of Indians, whites, negroes, mestizos, mulattoes and zambos is accompanied by all the perils which violent and disorderly passion can engender, at those critical periods when society, shaken to its very foundations, begins a new era.
About a quarter of the population consists of Creoles, descendants of Europeans and Indians known as Mestizos, while there is a small number of Mulattoes, and another race, the Zambos descendants of Africans and Indians. Mexico has long been in a chronic state of revolution.

Mayer estimated that in 1850 the proximate actual population was 7,626,831, classed as follows: Whites, 1,100,000; Indians, 4,354,886; Mestizos, Zambos, Mulattoes, etc., 2,165,345; Negroes, 6,600. Only one-seventh of the population belongs to that class, or caste, to which, according to the common sentiment in the United States, dominion over the earth has been given.
"After some time I went down to the silver-mines and tried to get work there; but it was all no good. The managers laughed at the very notion of taking me on, and as for the men, they made a dead set at me." "Why was that?" "Oh, human nature, I suppose; they saw I had only one hand that I could hit back with. They're a mangy, half-caste lot; negroes and Zambos mostly.
There were European Spaniards; Creoles, or children born in America of Spanish parents; Indians, the indigenous race; Negroes of African race; Mestizos, children of whites and Indians; Mulattoes, children of whites and negroes; and Zambos, children of Indians and negroes.
