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.
