Sriss Bell Ringers.-Thc editor Of the Cncin-
natl Enquirer, who has seen them, and heard their
music, thus describes them. "lhe band, or COM
pany, is composed of seven members, all young
men apparently nearly of the same age. Their
costume is of the better order of Swiss Peosantry'
They place themselves in row behind table,
the surface Of which is cushioned, so that when
a bell is laid down it will make no noise by falling
over. Before them are placed tOriy-tTo bells,
ranging in size from the smallest sheep to the
largest COW bell, and of much the same shape
The clapper of the bell is regulated with spring,
40 ,ha, il cannot touch the sides without it's shaken
They play all the popular music Of the day, from
the most difficult overures to the simple airs OF
Yankee Doodle and Lucy Neal. They execute
without notes, and one of them acts as instructor
arranging piece Of music, which they practice
until they become perfect. They run through the
whole scale from the lowest to the highest and
frequently bell is passed from one end of the table
10 the other, Just to make note and then passed
back gain, without atn medllng with the harno'
nv or order Of the tune"
