foundation for Night Thought Young's by
pethesis of O universe of dust, except that
| each particular atom does not dan &c accord
ing to its own devices, but according to
law. The air on the top of Mount Blanc
contains dust, but the acme aud concentra-
ton OF dirt IS tho atmosphere Of London, in
which 1T is impossible for any one to keep
quite clean, outside or in! Solar light, in
passing through dark room, reveals its
track by illuminating tie dust floating in
the ar IT there were no dust, no track
would be visible. Professor Tyndall, who
has a keen eye toy the beautiful, says that
on day OF TRANSIENT shadows, there was
something almost magical in the rise and
dissolution OF the luminous beams among
the scaffoldipg poles Of the Royal Albert
Hall, in London. Dust is the cause of
the lovely color OF tho azure frma-
ment. In fact, sky blue may be pro-
duced by exceedingly minute parti-
eles of aoy kind of matter. To the
same cause are To he ascribed the effects by
which distance lends enchantment to the
view. Professor Tyndall makes an artif-
cial sky moro perfect than u real one. In
mountainous countries hills at q great dis
lance are rendered almost invisible by
haze. 1t will DO understood that it is not
the ieterposition of tho haze as an Opaque
body that renders the mountains intiistinct
but that it is the light of the haze which
dims and bewilders the eye, aud thus
weakens the detinition of the objects seen
through it. Artists take notice of these
phenomena under the name of AERIAL per-
spective. The hnze varies with tl1e tenn

At certain times and places it is almost as
blue as the sky itself, but to sec its color

produced in tho same manner, and is sub
ject to the same laws rs the armament it
self. We live in the sky, not under it:
