RAMBLE XIX. JOURS a-o the book of clav was bound and closed by the O J v golden clasp of sundown. The hot fever-pulses of busi- ness are cooling under the balmy hand of sleep. The roar of wheels is hushed. Merchant prince, and pauper alike are sunk into forgetfulness of crown and rags. "Old and yet ever new is the night, " muses the rambler, as he glances up and down the long glimmering files of street lamps, and looks overhead into the pomp and silence of the spangled heavens. Every gas-light ...is a bit of primeval sun- shine kindled out of the coal urn, and awakened from the slumber of a million years which carries us back of weird periods of antiquity, and to times which left on the face of stone the delicate footprints of wind and rain, and of creatures long extinct before ever the race of man came on the theatre of action. If God so carefully preserved the ripple marks of long vanished seas, and made so indellibly a record of rock, and fossil, and shell, and stores away so richly for man's use and comfort immense coal fields, surely, as we sit by the cosy fireside, or meditate beneath the gas-light, \ve cannot help Under the Gas-Light.
