Rev. JAlEs A. DuNoAN.-We had the pleasure oi
hearing this gentleman yesterday morning at
Trinity Church. where he preached to large and
intellectual congregation. We noticed among the
audience u large number Of ex-Confederate Off
cials, who had learned to appreciate the Reverend
speaker in Broad street Methodist Church in Rich
mond. His text was, eye are Christs," and he
elucidated the great truths contained in the text
with admirable analytical power. Last night he
preached to q very crowded house in the Citadel
Square Baptist Church, from the text in Eccle-
siastes. xii, /: Remember thy Creator in the
days OF thy youth, while the evil days come not,
nor the years draw nigh, when thou shalt say,
have no pleasure in them."
The Young Mems Christian Association, to
whom this discourse was more specially directed,
was very fully represented. Mr.. DUNCAN designed
this as Introductory to series Of sermons ad-
dressed to young men. Tonight the topic will be
s'The heroism that obtains honor from God" }" and
is to be preached at Bethel Church. Tuesday
night he will preach at DR.. SMITHS Church. on
s:The man that makethdot God his strength"
The sermon last night was ono Of great power
and eloquence, and kept the audience spell-bound
for nearly seventy-iye minutes.
The following clergymon assisted in the services:
Rev. G. p. GADsDEN, Rev. E. ]. MEYNARp1E, Rev.
J. r, W1aHTMAN, Rev. W. S. BOWMAN, and Rev.
Luc1us Cu1HBERr, the pastor of the church.

ST. MIcHAEL's BEL1s.-Smce tie arrival of these
bells the steeple has been thoroughly overha uled
and tho belfry furniehed with new floors and the
different improvements necessary to perfect ths
hanging Of the chime completed. In examining
the different floors in the steeple it was found that
the joists were greatly decayed, and complete
renovation was necessary. This has been effect
ed, aud the floors in the bery and clock story are
now composed OF new material, and are prepared
to defy Father Time for another century.
Every effort has been made by the contractors
to have the steere in fit condition to receive the
bells on their delivery, and tho delays have been
occasioncd only by the necessary preparations
Five Of the bells are now released, and if the col
lections taken up in the different churches only
equal the expectation of the parties interested, the
Custom House will be speedily called upon to de-
liver their prey and the community be sladdened
by the sounds of a free peal.
It is proposed in the new arrangement TO swing
the bells, and not as heretofore pull the clapper
The new plan has many advantages, but it is con-
tended that in playing the tunes the same sympho-
ny cannot be preserved, and the swinging Of the
bells will injure the steeple. Time will prove which
theory is the most correct and as the preparations
are very forward there is no telling at what mo-
ment the welcome sound of naturalization may be
heard, and the pleasing intelligence conveyed that
the bells are free and once more loud-mouthed
members of the body corporate.
