Moonlight.

The moon three days old shines till about 7 o'clock, six days old till about 10, nine days old till about 1 in the morning, twelve days old till about 4, at fifteen days old she is full, eighteen days old rises at and at twenty-one days rises at 11 and shines till sunrise.

To enable our readers to understand when to expect moonlight, observe that the new moon passes the meridian ana rises and sets nearly at the same time as the sun. At new moon therefore she rises and sets with the sun, seven and-a-half days after this, when she is 90 degrees in advance of the sun, her time of rising will be about noon, at full moon, when she has advanced 180 degrees, she will rise about 6, and at waning she will rise in her last quarter at about 12.
