The Curious History of the Bill sos St.
Michaels in Charleston, South C,.'iroltna
—A Touching Episode,
Mrs. Petigru Carson, the daughter of
the late distinguished James L. Be tigru,
ol South Carolina, contributes to Ap
pleton's Jotirual, an interesting aoi :ouiit
oi old St. Michael's Church, ;iii< I the
crime of bells that once sounded in its
steeple a carillon as sweet a;i 1 louts
from the spire of Antwerp Cat he dral.
Tnese bells were connected wi th the
Revolution, but, having escaped the
perils of the siege of Charleston lay the
British in 1780, they were dest ro yed
nearly a century later by a tniselha nee
of the war ot secession. But we' it ust
let Mrs. Carson tell the story oif tl leir
fate after Sumter :
“Time went on, and Charlestons be
hind her defense of sand resisted ti ll the
eil'oi ts to carry her. During th, s five
hundred (five hundred and fort y-i ix)
I days ot bombardment, all the lov /er
part of the town had to be abandon ed.
Houses and churches were shatr.t jr- ed,
the cannon balls tore up the vervgnr ve
yards, and the bones ot the dead we re
scattered. Yet t lie spire of St. Mieb aei "s
was untouched. Perhaps the cannot. '-
eer tried to spare it—per haps goo 1
angels guarded it. But what neithe r
the ma ice ol the enemy nor the spiti :
of fortune did, the people themselves
effected. For the hells were ta/cei i
down and sent to Columbia, to be cas t
it'ilo cannon. Gen Beauregard, perhapt i
shocked at the deseeiation, pronounced '
them unlit lor the purjtose; and tlie
f ate which heaped up at Columbia for
i uile-Keeping every thing of value iu the
State, there detained the bills also.
Then Slterman’s army passed through,
leaving its true/; ot lightning. A party
ol halt drunken soldiers, out lor a lark
and for plunder, weie accosted by a
negro who otl'ered lo show them the
bells wir.eh had rung in secession.
‘Never,’said she men, •shall they play
that tun,' again,’ and they smashed
them in'so a hundred pieces. "
“Sad wtis the return to the desolated
homes rind the meeting in the dumb
church, to which no miracle might now
restor e the voice ol the chimes they
loved . i
“Jiut they were men of pluck still, '
and , as soon as hud shaken themselves (
am i provi led tor the first pressing ne als, i
tli ey resolved to tax themselves to the I
u tmost lo get anew crime.
“scarcely had the rector bread, and
the vestry and congregation were all
very poor, but they wrote Cos C. R. I’lio
h au, ol Loudon, to inquire Cue cost ol
anew set. This gentleman bad lived
so long iu England as to have become
almost an Englishman, with a lair En
glish wile and bluff handsome English
children, but bis heart stirred at the
recollection of the dear old voices that
hud called him to childhood, and lie un
dertook the task with a loving zeal that
brought about the most surprising re
sults. There was tl record at Charles
ton ol where the hells came from. But
Mr. Prioleau searched the drirectory
lor the oldest founders of the city, and
went troui one to the other, until at
Meures & Cos., White Chapel, London,
a tinii which lias been in existence three
hundred years, he found, by patient ex
amination, the record of bells east for
St. Michael’s Church, Charleston. S.
C., in 175 H. The proportions ot the
metal, and sizes ot the hells, were en
tered in the books and the present
Mears engaged to turn out anew set,
which, when hung, should make the
Charlestonians themselves thuiK. they
heard their veritable old bells. But
Air. Prioleau was not content with this;
he wrote but k to have ull the fragments
that could he found sent out, ami tins
was done. Meanwhile, Meares found
still in their s.-rviee un old man ot sev
enty-six, who had been apprentice I
under the very foreman who, more than
a hundred years belore. had east those
hells, and he, stimulated by Prioleau’s
generosity, never rested ull he brought
to light the very original molds lor the
castings. Into them the new metal was
orbited with careful distribution of the
broken fragments, so as to make the il
lusion a reality. All that was wanting
to make up the cast Air. Prioleau added,
and the reward of his perseverance
and generosity was to send to the wes
these new bells, which are the very old
ones still. Again did the congregation,
with tears and thanksgiving, receive
the bells troin this, their tilth voyage,
acrors the Atlantic, and hung them up
in St, Micael’s steeple.
May they never again be removed by
the rough hand of war, or ever sound
aught else but “peace on earth and
good will to men !”
Burned Relics. —According to the
London Dtiily News, a host ot uncom
mon'y interesting relics were destroyed
at the recent fire in the Royal Monaste
ry and Pulace of the Escuri.l, near
Madrid. Among them were a bur of
the gridiron on which St. Lawrence
was burnt; a pieoe of the sponge in
which drink was given to our Saviour
while hanging on the cross ; some pict
ures of the column to which he was
bound when scourged ; two thorns from
his crown; a piece ol his tunic ; a piece
ofthe manger in which he was born;
the thigh bones of St. Paul : some bones
of the Evangilists, St. Mark and St.
Luke ; the body of one of the Inno
cents slain by the order of Herod ; a fin
ger of St. Lawrence, and half of his
back-bone; the entire bodies of St.
Mauricio, St. Theodores, St. Mercury,
St. William, and others. The heads of
St. Bias, St. Julian, St. Felix, and
others ; a rib ol St. Albans ; the knee
of St. Sebastian ; a foot of St. Phillip
the Apostle; one of the water puts
from the marriage feast at Cana, and
other most interesting relics of men
and events mentioned in ecclesiastical
history.
Pedigree of Poets. Mr. Algernon
I Swnburnehasa theory that only men
of partrician birth can be poets. This
i is tt mere whim. Perhaps Dante, Allie
i ri and Byron may be set down as patri
i cians. But these are almost the only
; men whose names suggest themselves
; on the spur of the moment, and scores
ol poets of the highest genius, but of
plebian birth, rise to the tip of the
tongue. Horace, Beranger, Burns, wlial
sort of a pedigree had any of these men ?
Neit.ier hhakspeare nor Milton can be
said to be of the patrician order. They
were representatives of the middle class
of the class which in every country
has produced the truest poets, the keen
est and profoundest thinkers, the great
est statesmen. Most of the best "Eng
lish poetry has been written by men as
free from a pedigree as Burn's. What
peti gree hail Wor sworth, Colerids;e,
•Southey, Moore, Crabbe, Keats, Tom
flood, or even Scott, except the pedi
gree improvised out of his own inagina
'■ f '°h ? They belonged to the yoeman
i tnd merchant class. Byron and Shelley
' vere the only two men who were enti
t let! to bear arms. Genius is not in
the blood. It often turns up, like wild
h oney, in strange places.
How Politicians York It. —At apo
lit ical meeting, the speaker and audience
were very much disturbed by a man
who constantly called for Mr. Henry.
\\ hen anew speaker came on, this man
biv.vled out ‘Mr. Henry, Henry, Henry !
I c.all for Mr. Henry.’
After several interruptions of this
kind at each speech a young man as
cended the platform and was soon air
ing his eloquence in a magniloquent
style, striking out powerfully in his
gestures, when the old cry was heard
lor Mr. Henry.
Putting his hands to his mouth like
a speaking trumpet, this man was bawl
ing out at the top of his voice, ‘Mr.
Henry / Heniy ! Henry ! I call for Mr.
Henry to tna/re a speech,’
The chairman now rose, and remark
ed that it would oblige the audience if
the gentleman would refrain from any
further talli ,g for Mr. Henry, as that
gentleman was now speaking.
‘ls that Mr. Henry?’ said the distur
ber of the meeting. ‘Thunder / that
crui’t be Mr. Henry ! Why, that’s the
little cuss that told me to holler !
A G )od Wort for Local Papkrs.
—The New York rimes says you might
nearly as well forget your academies
and school houses as to forget your local
paper. It speaks to fen times the
audience your local minister does. It
is read eagerly every week from begin
ning to end. It reaches you all, and if
it has a lower spirit and less, wisdom
than a sermon, it has a thousand times
better chance at you. Leying, as it
does, on every table, in almost every
house, you owe it to yourselves to rally
lioerally to its support, and exact from
it as able high toned character as you
do from any educator in your midst, .It
is in no sense beneath notice and care
unless you yourself are beneath no
tice and care—for it is your representa
tive. Indeed in its character it is the
summation of the importance, interest
and wel are of you ail. It is the ag
gregate of your own consequence, and
you cannot ignore it. without miserably
depreciating yourselves.
