STRASBURQ.
Alter the Nnrrrnr The 3rnt Library and
ll h tirrwt Cathedral, aad Maw thrr fared.
A correspondent of the New York Evening
Post writes as follows:
THE NEW CHCBCH AND THE CITT. LIBRARY.
The destruction of the great library con
tained in the New Church was the complaint
of every Btrasburger we met, rich and poor.
For Alsace this library was the great point of
connection with the literary men of Germany;
every year hundreds of German scholars
Visited the city to pursue investigations amid
its literary treasures. Who is to bear the
blame of its destruction has yet to be proved.
First of all, a valuable collection of two hun
dred thousand volumes ought not to be placed
in a fortress; then, secondly, General
Uhrich was notified of the bombardment
twenty-four hours before it commenced, and
it is soid (but not proved) that he never
notified tho citizens of this fact; thirdly,
the city authorities knew as well as General
Uhrich himself that the library was in
danger from the very first; and the fact
becomes very apparent that the city
alone is guilty of great negligence in not
placing the books in the vaults of tho citadel
or other place of safety, at the commence
ment of the bombardment. The New Church
was the largest place of worship in the city.
It is now nearly a wreck. The high walls
Wdone are standing. The interior is filled
Rrith brickwork and debris to the height of
several feet. The remnant of the library,
Us far as yet discovered, consists of a few
baskets full of scorched leaves and parch
ments, and molten antique settings of book
.bindings. JLhese crisp black remnants are
all that is left of the once celebrated Stras-
burg library, or libraries, for the New Church
contained under its roof three collections of
books. The City Library proper, the Library
jof the Protestant Peaainary, and the Schocpflin
collection of books and antiquities of which
'latter somebody saved either the pistol or
"sword hilt of General Kleber.
j The oldest of these collections, the Trotest
!ant Seminary Library, founded in 1531, con
stained, it is estimated, over a hundred incu
rables, and over four hundred works printed
before the year 1520, and many very rare
works relating to Alsace. The City Library
jjwas a greater loss. It contained collections
'from the old cloisters of Alsace, and many
'manuscripts and rare printed works. The
latter of the three libraries was the creation
(of the celebrated historiographer of Alsatia.
iJohann Daniel Schnepflin. The details of the
loss will be already familiar to most of your
readers, and I can therefore spare myself the
.trouble of giving the great literary losses in
'detail. You hava also, doubtless, heard of
.the letter written by the director of the Stras
jburg Academy, Ilerr Zeller, to the Napoleonio
lex-ilinister of Fublio Instruction, Krame,
in which he complains of the
German vandalism in destroying the
library, and proposing certain measures for
getting a new library. The minister replied
in a bombastic letter, telling the rector that
Strasburg should have a new library, and
also a monument should be erected, telling
the devotion and heroism of the inhabitants
of the city to all future generations. Both
letters are too long for quotation. They
have, however, called upon both parties well
deserved ridionle in Germany, and more
especially on Hector Zeller, who apparently
thinks the greatest loss that Strasburg has
suffered during the bombardment is the loss
of its books, and not the human life. Ger
many will soon repair the damage she has
done to the library, and we doubt not a new
one will soon be established.
' The New Church, an ancient building,
dating from the thirteenth century, formerly
belonged to the Dominicans. The Protestant
Gymnasium was formerly a Dominican clois
ter. This, too, is partly destroyed. The
edifice has also some natural historical con
nections which deserve to be mentioned.
The great roof was always the meeting place
or the numerous btrasburg storks before
their departure for Africa. They met some
time in August, and disturbed the whole
neighborhood by their incessant disoussions
about their intended departure. At last they
finished talk, and departed. This year they
went a week or two earlier than usual, being
frightenedfrom their favorite feeding ground
by the German soldiers on the glacis. The
old tower of the church used to be oconpied
by jackdaws and pigeons; I heard the cawing
of the former and the cooing of the latter
still tip among the walls. Like the cats
among the battered and deserted houses
about the Porte de Lieres, they have stuck to
their homes in spite of all the dangers which
have been threatening them. The houses
around the New Church are in comparatively
good condition. A single shell caused the
destruction of the whole collection of books
on the night of the 24th to the 25th of Au
gust.
THB MINUTER.
The Minster stilllstands in all its grandeur
of Gothio architecture, though Master
Erwin's work has been injured to a very
considerable extent. as a whole, however.
it is preserved to us intact. The beautiful
"lace-work columns on the outer corners of
the facade, and many statuettes, are injured
or destroyed. Higher up, in the delicate
epire, a number of balls have passed through.
and one, in particular, has grazed the point of
the spire, which is now supported with an
iron ligament. Inside, soma pines of the
organ have been injured, and the stained
glass windows are all more or less broken.
ice celebrated astronomical clock is unin
jured, though one of the windows inline-
I diately above it is said to have received a
ball.
It was half-past eleven, and we waited
patiently in the neighborhood for twelve
o'clock, when the Apostles and angels make
their appearance; but, unfortunately, the
concussions have produced a temporary de
rangement of the machinery, and it has
ceased to work. The interior roofing is un
injured, though the tin or zinc covering over
this is totally destroyed, hervice has been
constantly held in tha church. An image of
f the Tirgin in one!of the niches was almost
I buried amid flowers, brought as offerings by
r the people for the intercession of the great
Amother in their behalf.
( The entrance to the tower was open to sol
diers and military men, who made good use
of their opportunity. We found the stairway
crowded with two lines of soldiers, the one
coins up and the other coming down. At
least ten thousand troops must have ascended
during the day. The platform, two hundred
and sixty feet high, is reached without anv
t obstacles, though at the elevation of the roof
Opf the nave a few balustrades have been
knocked away, rendering caution necessary
to visitors. The tin roof was a complete
wreck, but had apparently been the salvation
of the edifice. The shells sent by the Ger
mans possess the property of bursting at the
slightest resistance; and thus in passing
through this upper roofing they exploded
before reaching the vaulting of the nave,
which thus remained comparatively uuia-
l nted. Fires did once or twice break out;
nt watchmen and water were always on
band. The balustrades of the platform are
injured in a few places. The guide's house
is comparatively nnin iured. Ascending higher
the damage is Bomewhat greater, a few balls
having broken away two or three stone steps
and a number of small ornamental columns.
Many soldiers climbed up to just below the
weathercock itself.
No one can doubt for a moment that the
pplendid edifice has been taken good care of
by the German marksmen. The Minster is
the largest building in the city, and can be
Sf en from all the German batteries. At first
Commandant Uhrich persisted in placing an
observatory upon the platform, from which
a t6legraphio wire communicated with the
Leadquarters. All the movements of the
Germans could thus be distinctly observed;
and the probability is that the sacred edifioe
would never have been fired at but for
this. It was also thought that from this plat
form the garrison held communication with
points of observation in the Vosges Moun
tains. The view, as all travellers remember,
is very extended, being bounded on the east
by the Schwarzwald, on the west and north
by the Vosges and the Ottilienberg, and far
southward by the range of the Jura. It was
from hero the watchman had first seen the
French soldiers running into the city after
the battle of Woerth. The city had just then
hardly a thousand men in its garrison, and it
is now admitted that had the Germans known
their opportunity Strasburg would have fallen
into their hands almost without a shot.
ST. DENIS.
The Sepulchre of the French Monarch.
It is to be regretted that at nearly all the
spots where the great contending armies in
Europe have met, the most noble churches
of I ranee are built. Xhe cathedrals of btras
burg, Metz, and llheims are known to every
tourist, and admired, almost venerated,
wherever men have hearts to love beauty of
form consecrated to the spirit of religion.
And St. Denis, adds the Louisville Courier
Journal, is no exception to the list. The
beautiful facade, the portals emblematio
of the coronation of the Virgin and the Pas
sion, the rose window imaging the baptism
of Clovis, and the six hundred statues
of the cathedral at llheims are happily unin
jured, but the fine old Gothic Church of St.
Martin, at Metz, with its towers, its apses
and paintings of the Lorraine sohool, are un
doubtedly like the spires, the clock, and the
high altar of Strasburg in ruins. Its de
fenselessness saved Bheims; but the fortifica
tions which have necessitated the terrible
destruction and loss of life at Metz and
Strasburg will, we are afraid, be equally
fatal to the Abbey of Saint Denis. While
the bells here in hundreds of churches
are summoning worsmppers to praise
and prayer, another peal may be heard in ono
of the most ancient fanes of France the
peal of the cannon. With the exception of
the .brief period of insanity when, at the
commencement of the great Revolution, the
Parisians installed the Goddess of Reason in
the altars of Jehovah, until Robespierre, with
a strange mixture of impiety and compunc
tion, declared that the new republic recog
nized God, the tower of the abbey of St.
Denis had for twelve hundred and forty-two
years been a memorial and a sanctuary of
worship.
Jjut independent of its beauty and sanctity,
the old abbey is venerable from historio as
sociations. Since the days of Dagobert it
has been the burial-place of the monarchs of
France, and despite the lapse of time and the
assaults of the Revolution, its aisles and
transept and crypt teem with monuments of
the past. Nepoleon restored it; the Bour
bons, the Orleanists, and the late empire re
paired it; and again the long range of royal
tombs, vacant of their dust, scattered by a
decree of the convention in 1 1 93, decorate
the upper church. There were terrible
weeks in !3. In the course of three days
fifty-one tombs were rifled, and the ashes of
queens and kings and marshals torn up in
every stage of decay, and after subjection to
every species of indi gnity thrown in a heap
into two trenches hastily dag without the
walls of the church. A' soldier with his
sabre cut the beard from the lip of Ilenry of
Navarre, and the body of Turenne, so little
injured by time that the likeness, still recog
nized, was placed in a glass case and ex
hibited as a show to gratify idle curiosity.
1 or twelve years after this sacrilege the
Abbey Church of St. Denis remained roof
less: "By ruin was Us shrine profaned,
By smoke each holy Image strained."
But Napoleon refitted the desecrated sepul
chral vaults of the .Bourbons as a mausoleum
for the new regime. To the vaults below the
high altar have again been carried the burnt
remains of Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette,
the coffins of Louis XVIII and others of the
family. But worthier than these, greater
than most in the long roll of French kings,
here rest, in a rarely visited corner, all that
is mortal of the last Conde, the father of the
Due d'Engbien, who died at St. Leu.
Between 1800 and 1817 more than $ 1,000,
000 were expended in the restoration of St.
Denis, and now, in all probability, a bom
bardment will again destroy the grand old
church. The column erected to the memory
of Ilenry III, assassinated in 158'.); the monu
ment to Francis II, husband of the beautiful
Queen of Soots, surrounded at its base by
weeping angels, like Prometheus by sea
nymphs on the rock of Caucasus, may be de
stroyed, and the effigy of Duguesclin in the
transept be as powerless to protect as the
renown of Turenne beneath the tower. But
if the towers of the abbey be levelled to the
dust, and Prussians march where Paris is since
Lutetia was, the fame of St. Denis will never
fade from the memory of man. It was at St.
Denis, in the time of Charles VII, that tho
oriflanime was raised beneath whose conquer
ing folds the Maid of Domremi led the beaten
hosts of France to victory from Orleans to
Paris. What the Parthenon was to Athens,
the Grotto of Egcria to Rome and Numa, the
cave where Mahomet concealed himself when
the religion of the Koran was confined to his
Uncle Ali, his wife, and a few determined
followers what the ark was to David, the
holy of holies to Israel that is St. Denis to
France.
Historically speaking, Paris itself is but an
outgrowth, a complement of the towns which
Dagobert built. All over France, in the wilds
of Brittany, in the plains of Normandy, in the
fertile levels of Champagne wherever the
real thought and strength of the people hold
eay St. Denis is like the burial place of
Mohammed in Mecca, the high place and
altar of Gaul. The town is protected by a
fort upon the southeast, but is scarcely capa
ble of a prolonged defense. Its 2(5,542 in
habitants must suffer the horrors of a siege or
vield to the first summons of the advancing
errnv. The memorials of the past are not
ekti v obliterated, but as the chivalry of the
middle ages beoomea more nearly crushed
Muth the materialistic spiiit of the nineteenth
century, so the monuments of the past grow
in grandeur, and exert a more powerful inHu.
ti ce upon the destinies of mankind.
"Mun." said Sir Thomas Browne in the
'Iltligio Medici," "is splendid in ashes, pom
oua in the grave, covering himself with a
ialo of immortality, and, god-like, rising
again and covering himself with glory even
in the infirmity of his nature." If St. Denis
falls and France is a republic, the ruin and
destruction of the historio town may flash
like an electrio spark, reanimate France, and
inspire her children with the memory of her
antique valor.
Mr. Morgan, the last of the original Welsh
settlers at London, Canada, died last week at the
age of 85 years.
