But the place has a rather mournful and desolate aspect, to my thinking, just at present. A sadness as of nrenaature Autumn is over it. I pas- sed. the Houses of Parliament late the other night, and as I stool for a moment on Westminster Bridge o look at the vast, dark, Gothic pile, I thought its darkness and desolation were positively deepened by. -the twinkle of one lonely light in a high and distant window—in the room, I suppose'of !some mournful caretaker or other funct onary. What an awespme time of it .they must have who are left all the Aut -mu nights in th3 care of that wilderness of silent building! Even the old Irish woman, who keeps her little stall of apples and cakes near the members entrance, in Westminster Hall—a poor- old person nearly as well known to the frequenters of that building as the brilliant flower ior 14 Isabella to the swells of the splendid race courses—even she has • disappeared. By the way, howevei, I should say that her disappearance is involuntary, a,nd may illustrate -some of the peculiarities of officsal regulatiore and ?atronage here.
