4 Storm in the Hinsalayas.

Byron has told us, in words which will
live forever in the pages of school-books,
what storm at night among the Alps is
like; but its utmost strength is as nothing
to the tropical wrath of the Himalaya.
As the sun goes down red and anglily be-
hind the great rock castles overhead, you
become conscious of an unwontedly thick,
close feeling in the keen mountain air, and
dead, ominous silence, as if all nature
was holding its breath at the approach of
something terrible. Darkness falls like a
curtain over earth and sky the moment the
sun has dipped behind the mountains,
while the sinister hush ell around seems to
intensity itself hundred-fold. Then sud-
denly everything becomes as light as noon
day. The books and papers scattered
about the table, the dark mountains outsiIe,
the flying figures of few belated noun
taineers rushing towards the nearest shell
ter, are all terribly distinct, for one mo-
ment in binding glare, and then blotted
out again. Then follows q thunder-clap
which seems to split the very sky, and in
stantly the great battle of the 6 .aments
begins in earnest. The wind howls and
shrieks, rattling the doors and windows rs
If it would dash them in, and shaking
even the strong timbers of the walls till
they creak and groan like those of storm
beaten vessel. The thunder roars and
bangs overhead. ant. the great bullets of
rain come hammering upon the metal
roof with sound like the roll of mighty
drum, and flash after fash lights up the
pouring sky and tossing forest, only to
plunge them into deeper darkness.
And then the terrific uproar ceases as sud-
denly as it began, and the clouds roll away,
and the full moon bursts forth in all her
splendor, and no sound breaks the stiffness
save the dull, distant roar of swollen tor
rent, or the muffled reverberation of some
rock bounding from ledge to
ledge down the black, unfathomless depths
below.
