The Great Strasbourg Clock.

Henry c. Wright, in a lecture to the Liberdtor,
thus describes the great clock 10 the Cathedral Of
Strasbourg
The priests and military have retired, and
am sitting in chair facing the gigantic clock,
from the bottom to the top not less than 100 feet
and about 80 feet wide, and Is deep. Around me
are many strangers waiting to see the working of
this clock it strikes the hour of noon. Every
eye is upon the clock. 1t wants minutes of
y. The clock has struck and the people are gone,
except few whom the sexton, or head man, with
a wand and sword is conducting roun1 the build
ing. The clock has struck in this way The dial
is some 20 feet from the floor, on each side of
which is a cherub, OF little boy, with a maet, and
over the dial is small bell-rhe cherub On the
left strikes the first quarter, and that the right
the second quarter. Some so feet the dial, in
a large niche, is a huge figure of Time, bell in
his left. a scythe in his right hand. In front
stands figure of 4 young man with mallet, who
strikes the third quartz: the bell in the hand
OF Time. and turns and gdes, with a slow step,
round behind Time. Then comes out an old man
with mallet, and places himself in front of him.
As the hour of twelve comes, the old man raises
his mallet, and deliberately strikes twelve times
on the bell that echoes through the building, and
is heard all round the region of the church The
old man glides slowly behind Father Time, and
the young man comes on readily to perform his
part, as the time comes round again. Soon as the
old man has struck and II disappeared, another
set of machinery is put IN motion, some ~ feet
higher still 1t is thus There is high cross
with the image of Christ on 1.-THE instant II
has struck, one of the apostles walks out from be-
hind comes in front, turns, facing the cross bows
and passes on. So twelve apostles, figures as large
as life, walk round, bOw, and pass on. As the
last appears, an enormous cock, perched on the
pinnacle of the clock, slowly aLps its wings stretch
es forth its neck, and three times, 50 loud,
as to be heard outside Of the church to some dis
tance, and SO naturally as to be mistaken for
real cock. Then all is silent death No won
der this clock is the admiration of Europe. It
was made in l75l. and has performed these me-
chanical wonders ever since, except about fifty
years when it stood out Of repair"
