Bells Made of Percelaln. In a few weeks the cathedral of Metz will possess the famous chimes of 60 porcelain bells of which so much bas been said. It Is said that the tone of these bells leaves nothing to be desired. As to their solidity, they seem to be of the first orde'. Until now no such use has been made of porcelain, a fact which will make of the chimes of Metz an un-equaled un-equaled curiosity. It Is recalled, however, that at MIssen, where the manufacture of the so-called "Dresden" "Dres-den" china was carried on from 1710 to 1803, there Is a house constructed of that material.
