London, Feb. 24.  Yesterday the Society of Ringers, called
City Scholars, rung a compleat peal of 7040 clinques on the
twelve bells at St. Michael's Cornhill, in 5 hours and 27
minutes; being the greatest performance of the kind ever
known.  it is remarkable, that three or four of the
performers are under 20 years of age, and the whole company
that rung this peal ( 4 persons) were very hearty and well
after it.
