An extraordinary feature in the career
of bells is their undergoing the process Of
baptism before being used. This cere.
mony is performed by the Roman Cath
olics at the present day, who say that
the bells thus receive power to act as
preservatives against thunder and light

more Of jovial than religious charac-

that, in a few months, the trees will pre-
