BEAUTIFUL NIGHTs.-The evening begins
now TO gain upon the day, and night falls
before business can be conveniently de- :
patched. IL is seldom, however, that we
have more charming nights than are now
vouchsafed to us. Even the lovely nights
lit by the harvest moon. cannot vie with the
soft radiance with which the Queen of ni,ht
now enlightens her realm. Nor does the
season pass unimproyed; although numbers
are kept within doors, yet the streets after
night are yet quite lively.
