BELLS! BELLS BELLS lit seems that
there was a great deal of trouble yester.
day in procuring the ringing of the church
bells in Virginia The Methodist Church
bell was soon secured for service; not so
the Catholic and Episcopalian. Father
Nanogue was away, Father Hickie was
out on a sick call, and Father Riley (who
was the only priest at home) seemed to
think the ringing of the church bell on
such an occasion, and for such purpose,
would be well nigh sacrilegei 1t was
coming twelve, high noon, when a mes
Senger was dispatched to the Gould &
Curry village for Father Hickie. Once
found, there was consent, and the priest
and messenger came walking rapidly TO
give the order. Meanwhile, Father Ma
nogue had returned. and we believe he did
not object; so, though behind the others,
The Catholic bell did ring. We think that
ringing improved the prospects of the
Irish University Fund very considerably
rhc financial prospects, hereabouts. Rev.
Nh. Rising, Of the Episcopal Church,
would not allow the bell of his society to
be rung until there had been obtained the
consent thereto of majority of his (l2)
vestrymen, He said or intimated that
the Law governors of his society were nearly
d:Hded on the Union question, and it
would place him in d.sagreeable position
W; \ certain influential Democratic peace
parishioners TO ring for this kind OF
peace Of Lee had bagged Grant, we
presume these peace men wouldn't have
been suspected of Directing y The con-
sent of the following named yeStrymen
was finally obtained, making the required
majority Col. Turner, Sunderland, Har-
mon, Paxton, Edwards. Van Bokkelen,
and mother whose name was not fur

10 the rhymlug and the Ginning Of the bells
DRAKE's ODE.-This beautiful ode to
the American Flag was recited by Mr..
Warwick, last evening, at Maguire's Opera
House, and was received with thunders of
applause. Frank MAYO also recited e
Pluribus Unum." Both these features
were not on the bills-but the occasion
could not pass without the rendition Of
them. The hearts of the audience swelled
with rapturous applause. Mayo and War
wick are splendid elocutionists, and their
powers have full scope in the pieces
named.
Broken WrNDows.-The windows at
he Franco-American Restaurant, and
those of the adjoining saloons and stores,
were broken by the conclusion caused by
the firing Of cannon in the streets. In
Silver City similar case happened. We
trust that the proper authorities will re-
fund the amount of loss to the respective
parties.
CRowN PoISr MrLL.-The Crown Point
Company have received and are now
erecting the boiler, engine and other ma
chinery, for new hoisting-works. The
engine is twelve-inch cylinder, with two
feet stroke. The boiler is ifty-four inches.
The power IS estimated at about fifty
horse power, and supplies want that the
company has suffered from the start.
