You can scarcely have an idea of it, without having been there. It is a city under cover. You walk all day, and day af. ter day, from one street to another, winding and turning and trudging up hill and down, and never go out of doors. -The roof ia as high as those of our three atory house, and the dim light so favo rable to shopkeepers, come struzelimr down thro' tkylights never cleaned except by the rains of neaven.
