The Drowned Bells.
l HIsTLEDOWE.

There is romantic story told of Fora
bury church, the parish in which Rosecastle
and its harbor lie. There were no bells &c
the church, and as the inhabitants heard
the sound of the musical peaIs at Tintagei,
when the winds waited it across the sea.
they became anxious to have some of their
own. Their wishes were warmly seconded
by Lord Bottreaux, who lived at the castle,
and IN due time the bells were cast and
ready to be brought home The vessel
which was to bring the long wished for
freight appeared in sight, and the inhabi-
tants came out upon the beach to watch its
entrance into the harbor. The pilot who had
charge of the ship, hearing the distant
sound OF his own native bells at Tintagel
gave thanks to God that he should be on
shore that night.
''Thank the good ship; thank God ashore
said the captain
May" said the pilot, ''we should thank
God everywhere"
Thou art fool. Thank thyself with
fair wind and and steady helm"
/ So they talked the captain venting his
rage i'll oaths and curses, the pilot firm in
his dependence upon God.
AS the vessel neared Wilpacl Point, clouds
began to rise, and while many eager faces
were watching enc of those frightful storms
came on, in which the vessel became I'M
manageable, struck upon the rocks, and
freight, men captain, all were lost except
the pilot, who was. washed ashore upon a
plank. In the pauses of the storm, which
was long and violent, the clang of the bells
was distinctly heard; and still the buried
bells give their mournful chime in the fire.
