The Bell "Great Paul. /"

DR.. Stainer, the organist Of St. Paul's
cathedral, sends to the London Times
some particulars respecting the large
bell for the cathedral now being finish
ed at the foundry of Mr.. Taylor, at
Longborough. "Big Ben," DR.. Stalner
says, sinks into comparative insignifi-
canoe by the side of "Great Paul"
which will take rank among the six or
eight heaviest bells in Europe. At
present her position cannot accurately
be assigned, as she has not yet passed
the scales; but it will probably lie be-
tween the great bell of Olmu'z, weigh
ing II tons IS cwt., and that of Vienna,
weighing II tons IA cwt. The casting
was successfully accomplished between
the 23d and 29th ultimo. DR.. Stainer
says that "when the tone was produced
by swinging a heavy ball Of iron against
the sound. bow of a musical note BOOM
ed out which was impressive beyond
description" The bell is 8 feet 10
inches high, and 9 feet 634 inches IN
diameter. The note is E fiat, the up
per partials B fiat, f fiat and G being
just audible with the sonorous ground
tone. The cost of the bell and hoist
ing it into its place will be about
$4,000, and it has been decided to
use it for the first time on Easter Sun
day next.

We sometimes wish that nature had de-
signed us for hired girl, instead of an editor;
so that we could have been independent. In

BOB INGERsOLL AT THE GRAVE OF A
CHILD.

One of Col. Ingersoll's admirers re-
quested him to say a few words over
the grave of his little girl, the friend be-
ing one of Col. Ingersoll's followers.
The following sentences from the ad-
dress will not sound harsh to the most
orthodox ears:
"Why should we fear that which
will come to all that is? We cannot
tell, we do not know, which is the
greater blessing-life or death. We
cannot say that life is not good. We
do not know whether the grave is the
end of this life or the door of another,
or whether the night here is not some
where else dawn. Neither can we
tell which is the more fortunate-the
child dying in its mothers arms before
its lips have learned to form word, or
he who journeys all the length of life's
uneven road, painfully taking the last
slow steps with staff and crutch. 3
"Every cradle asks US Whence 2
and every coffin 'Whither!' The poor
barbarian weeping over his dead can
answer these questions as intelllgently
and satisfactorily as the robed priest
of the most authentic creed. The
fearful ignorance of the one is just as
consoling as the learned and unmean-
ing words of the other. No man, stand
ing where the horizon of a life has
touched grave, has any right to pro-
phesy a future filled with pain and
tears. 1t may be that death gives all
there is of worth to life. If those we
press and strain against our hearts
could never die, perhaps that love
would wither from the earth. May be
this common fate treads from out the
paths between our hearts the weeds of
selishness and hate, and ! had rather
live and love where death is king, than
have eternal life where love is not.
Another life is naught, unless we know
and love again the ones who love US
here.
"They who stand with breaking
heart around this little grave need have
no fear. The larger and the nobler
faith in all that is and is to be tells US
that death, even at its worst, is only
perfect rest. We know that through
the common wants of a life-the needs
and duties of each hour-their grief
will lessen day by day, until at last
this grave will be to them a place OF
rest and peace-almost of JOY. There
is for them this consolation: The dead
do not suffer. If they live again their
lives will surely be as good as ours.
We have no fear. We are the children
Of the same mother, and the same fate
awaits us. We, too, have our religion,
and it is this: "Help for the living
Hope for the dead"

.
Mahone's abuse of power is yiel-
ding its natural fruit. Success has
uncovered only his selfishness and
love of revenge. Everything has
been made to serve his autocratic
purposes. The result is that he
has been forced on the down
grade. He will need now, if he is
to be saved, to abandon speedily
the course that he has followed all
winter and to reinvest himself, if
only for reasons of expediency,
with the conciliatory and appa-
rently unseltish qualities which
raised him to prominence.
These are opinions gathered to-
