St. Patrick's Day. Of all the days
in the calendar, St. Patrick's Day is
dearest to the heart ol the true and
genuine Irishman. Yesterday, the 17th
inst., was honored in this city not only
by the son3 ot the Emerald Isle and
those of Irish desceni, but numbers of
others "wore the green" as a mark of
reverence ior the day and tribute of
respect to that heroic but oppressed
nation. Though scattered throughout
the known world, the Irish never allow
the Day to pass unnoticed. It is cele
brated and honored amid the snows and
ice of the frigid zone as well as 4 amid
thtf gdare and heat of the torrid. ' In all
climes where the light of civilization
shines, the natal day of Ireland's Evan
gelist is observed with all the demonstra
tions of lively joy consistent with true""
piety. For 14 centuries the name of
St. Patrick has been reverenced bynil-
lions of christians, and should the
world see another 14, the leefjng will
be as deep and strong then, as that of
to-day. Z - . .
For the benefit of our readers who
have never read the , history of - Saiat
Patrick, we append the toliowing
sketch clipped from the columns of an
exchange: v 0 f
LIFK'AKD CnAitACTER OF ST. PA1CK.
, i
:The most reliable authorities represent
that St. Patrick vas born about the close
of the fourth cenftiry iu thlat part of
Armbric Gaul near the, present Boulo-gne-sur
Mer. His lather's n&irie was :
Potitious, a man of TTtiihCanu of a
noble family; his motfier?i .namefwas
Cpnchessa, either a sister or near relative
of St; Martin, of Tours. Some author
ities describe Conchessa as uiece of St.
Martin. While yet a mere youtht.
Patrick was twice reduced to slavery
He was barely sixteen When first made a
captive and sold to Milcho, under whom
he served as a swineherd in the moun
tains of, Sleamish, in the county, of An
trim, North of Ireland. A spot is
pointed out even at the present time as
a favorite resort of this saint when
engaged in the holy work of prayer.
Without entering into any . elaborate
display of argument to prove the exact
ness of those places to be all that
popular tradition ascribes them to be,
we may only state that even at the
piesene nour tuey pessess cuaracteneucs
lavorable to the belief of those whose
lives have been spent around them.
Durinir our last visit to Sleamisb. rer
marks " a writer, in company, r with a
young Italian priest, we remember how
enthusiastically the y Levite cried
out, "I believe, I know, that this is the
very spot which St. Patncd trod."
St. Patrick regained his liberty, and
fleeing to France, repaired to the mo
nastery ot his illustrious relative, St.
Martin, where he spent four years pre
paring himself for the work, which he
felt himself inspired by God to fulfil-
viz ,, the conversion of the Irish people
from Paganism to Christianity. In a
vision granted to him by the power of
God he read the wbrds, "The voice ot
the Irish," and at the same time he
heard the voice of the people crying
out to him "Come and walk amons us."
Atter studying for some nine years
under SS. Honoraius and Maximus, he,
by the advice of St. Germanus, his di
rector, proceeded to Rome, and there so-
licited and obtained from Pope Celes-
tiue a commission to preach the Gospel
iu Ireland.
Happy, thrice bles3ed,day when Pat
ricjk lauded at Strangterd in 432 and
baptized Dicho, the- chief of that dis
trict, in the North of Ireland. But
happier far when he visited ' Leogaire,
the monarch of Ireland, when assembled
in the courtly halls ol Tara.
By the laws of the country no fire
was to be lighted before the Bealsinm
(or Baalfire,) but St. Patrick and his
companions among whom was Benig
nus had determined to celebrate the
Feast of Easter, and for that purpose
had pitched their tents and lighted
their fires. Let us here note the reply
ot Druied priests in answer to the in-,
quiry ot the King concerning this
strange violation- ot the law: 41 This
fire, which has now been kindled before
our eyes, unless extinguished! this very
night, will never be extinguished
throughout ah time Moreovjer, it will
tower over all fires of our ancient rites,
and he who bghts it will ere long scatter
your ancient kingdom. " . The King
was enraged. Yet, the next day, Pat
rick preached in the halls ot Tara, and
Leogaire declared, " It is better that 1
should believe than die"
The Saint next visited Breffney, now
the county of Cavan, where the wor
ship ot the Croni-cruach (a large idol)
had existed tor centuries. When the
Saint saw the idol he atltpointcd the
staff of Jesus, and the idol lefl to the
earth never to rise again. Atterlravers-
ing all Conuaught for the space of seven
years, returned again to Ulster, and l
the distiict then known by the name of
Machai received from Daire a grant ol
land at a place called Drurin Sailech
(the Hill of Sallams), upon which the
ancieut Cathedral of r Armagh V was
erected.: --' ';'. ' "-:--; ;.;.:.--.;'.
It is needless to assure the reader that
the fine old cathedral was lost at the
time of Henry ' and Elizabeth's '"refor
mation" of Christ's religion in Ireland.
But the successor of St. Patrick, the late
Primate Crolly, laid the foundation ot
the new cathedral, which stands higher
and is even grander in point of architec
tural beauty than the old cathedral.
' What a strange verification ot the
words of the Druid priests at Tara.
St. Patrick's apostleship in Ireland
lasted nearly sixty years. During that
time he built or caused to be built a
church for every day in the year. He
also consecrated as many bishops, and
ordained nearly 8,000 priests about
the same number to be found in Ireland
at the present day. It were a very easy
matter to give many and.beautitul out
liuesof the holy liie and career1 of St.
Patrick, but , where is . the hand lit to
write the faintest sketch of the Fesult ol
his labors as manifested in the mission
.arv career of-the Irish saiuts in Europe
or in tne uispersion or ma eniiaren
throughout the world.
Np laud eyer produced ;nch a multi

Not a cbhtury-'passed by, lrom the days

Though we had no procession with
banners, &c, the day was fitly com
memorated by aery handsome
: ' ! -r' . STJPPBB '
at the Yarborough House. Of the ma
terial part of the banquet but little is
needed to be said. Every one at ail
acquainted with the reputation of Dr.
Blacknall.as a caterer, knows that a3 it
came under his supervision, it was all
t.iat it should be in every particular.
At 0:30 p. m. tbeguest weie invited mtoi
the banquet room. Gen. W. R. Cox
was called to the chair. Gen. John .C.
Gorman and Lee, Esq., of Boston,
Were made Vice-PTsideuts, and the
vaXous representatives of the city press
present were invited to act as Secreta-
Alter at, fervent grace bad been pro
nounced by .Father McNamara, ao-: at
tapk was matie upon theanay of tempt
ing. edibles,-nd the onslaught con
tinued with a vim until the "inner man"
ceased to" relish morg.
iT Telegrams were irad' from Judge
Settle aod Capt. T. F.-Lee, regretting
that necessary business (retained them
in Washington City.
' 4 Letters were read from,. Judge Manl y
and C, M- Bubee, Esq. giving, reasons
why they were not present. The, ab
sence of DEj Burje Hay wood, Col. I.
J, Young and ofother invited guests
were acfcbuit.edoVr The first regular
tdast of y theeyemng, the "'Day We
Celebrate,",. waA- responded to by Major
Sea'ton Gatesof this city, in a manner
Which thrilled 1 every Irishman's heart
who,f" heard it. The speech was
a 'most happy one in every
urticular. Speaking of the glorious
past or Ireland and alluding to tne long
array of her Warrior's Statesmen and
Poets is a theme likely to inspire elo-;
queoce, the . gentleman alluded to was
true to the inspiration. His speech was,
as it deserved to be, enthusiastically
applauded.
The song, "I'm leaving Thee, Erin,"
by Mr. Thompson, was well rendered.
Father McNainara's songs, "Wait for
the Wagon" and "Blind O'Leary
his Doy," were irrcettd with uu1
roaiious encores. uThe speeches of Dr.
Grissom, Mayor Whitaker, Gen. Cox,
and Gen. Gorman, in response to senti
ments,were neat and appropriate. The
health of Judge M. E. Manly, of New
bern, was proposed and drank with all
the honots.
We could not stay to hear the other
sentiments and responses thereto,
and if we hadiJio allusion here could be
made to them on account of the late
ness of the hour and the press upon our
columns.) In the next issue the deficien
cies of his notice will be atoned for.
Among the prominent citizens present,
besides those already mentioned, we
noticed Messrs. W. H. Jones, P. Cowper,
A. D. Royster, Dr. II. J. Menninger, Dr,
Grissom, J.P.PrarieMayor W.Whitaker.
William Simpson, J. Pirsson, arid num
bers ol others whose names cannot now
be recalled.
:The tsweet jwusic rendered by
Messrs. Simpson, Pirsson, V. Royster
and William Vaughau was one of the
features ot the evening and contributed
much to the enioyment ot the occasion.
If an attempt were made. "to give an
adequate description of this lestiye
scene, '.lo no space would- be giv
en in this paper to anything
else. We- regret we ; cannot
chronicle the sprightly hon mot, spark
ling witticism, &c.,which flew thick and
fast. On every hand there was joviality
rendered more enjoyable by the hearty
good feeling which characterized it.
The agreeability which marked the
observance of this St. Patrick's Day
will cause many to look forward to the
coming of the 17th ol March next with
anticipations ol enjoying another even
ing ot uninterrupted pleasure, when the
"least ot reason and flow of soul"' min
gle '.so delightfully with the material
enjoyment ot the table.
V The Escape and RecaptcIie of
Mohdecai'on Saturday. W7e referred
Sunday morning to the escape from the
jail ou Saturday -of Mordecai, one of the
negroes under sentence of death lor be
ing implicated in the Hicks' "outrage.
We staletl lhat the j'ti'or was guilty of
gross neglect in heuig so careless with
prisoners under such a seutence. We
learn that the jail at the time was under
the charge of' a colored man uamed
Evans, who was in the habit of allow
ing the piisoneis to go into the yard, us
in this case, when Mordecai seaifd the
walls and escaped without being seen
Evans is not a sworn r officer, but to his
praise, immediately upon discovering
the escape ol the prisoner, he gave chase
and succeeded in capturing him in the
Western part ot the city. The re-cap
ture of .the prisoner, however, does not
do away with the carelessness allowed
in the management of the pnsouexs.
The School Tax. The Register o:
Deeds in this county, Capt. W. W
White, is now sending out tickets for
the election iu regard to levying
special school tax. The e ection takes
place on the 24th of next month. VY e
have not seen the man who, could tell
what amount of tax it is necessarv to
levy for school purposes in this county,
and we nave seen no one who has any
idea of the, number of wchool disuicis
in the county. In fact, we believe, the
School Committee have never yet laid
oil said districts as they are required to
do. Ip a day or two- we will endeavor
to post our readers upon tins nitittei.
Distinguished Aiuuval. A minia

Death of the Rev.'Wm. Bakiun
ger. By a special dispatch, received
from Greensboro last night, we have
the sad intelligence of the death of the
Rev. .William Barringer, Presiding
Elder of the Hillsboro District, his
death resulting :h"qm the severe fall be
sustained from the second 'story of the
new1 College-building, in Greensboro,
bn!Tuesday last,' an.account of - which
we gave last ; week. The following is
the account of the accident, . as gi ven
by our Greensboro correspondent last
Thursday: . ; ;
."Mr. Barringer was on an inside
Bcafiold of the second stery,; inspecting
the College; ; building when a, mislaid
plank gave way, causing him to fall a
distance, of some thirty feeti' He fell ou
his right side, breaking his right thigh,
spraining his wrist, knocking several
teeth from his mouth, bruising his face
badly, mangling the flesh terribly on
the right side and injuring him in
ternally to ah extent that : it caused
blood to flow freely from his nose and
moutlr" , ' , -.
Hopes were entertained that he might
possi bly ' suryive his jnj uries, but the sad
news of his deatli will .carry grief to the
many thousands in the State' who kuevv
and loved him for his true worth. He
was one of the brightest ornaments in
the North Carolina Conference.
"-'The deceased was some fifty years
of age, and was a brother of our distin
guished townsman, Hon. D. M. Barrin
ger, who has our hearty sympathy in
his present bereavement. -
,"'"." '.- "''- " -.- - ' l '
Bekgeu Famii,y. Last evening a
very large audience greeted this deseiv-
ing troupe at Tucker Hall, and we were
glad to see it, for the performance mer
its patronage in every way. " Each
member ot the troupe did credit
himself or herselt. Miss Nellie Knapp
received encores in her songs, and she
indeed deserved them. Her voice is
wanting in neither culture nor volume.
Miss Anna Berger's Cornet Solo received
richly merited . applause, and her per
formance on this instrument would do
no discredit to the celebrated Levy.
Mr. Sidney Franks in his original char
acter songs was the recipent of frequent
and hearty manifestations of the ap
proval of the audience. As a Violinist
Mr. Earnest Thiele can lay claim to dis
tinction aud has u right to be regarded
as a yiolin Virtuoso. His performance
on this instrument entitles him to rank
high among artists. Another noticea
ble fe iture of the entertainment was the
young ladies'-Silver Cornet Band, and
as the music they rendered was excel
lent an additional charm was inveu to
the novelty. ;; Jn fine, the whole enter
tainment, was ineritorious and we hope
that the troupe may have full houses
during their stay in this city.
Changed Occupation. We learn
that our old office chum, ex-Steward of
the Iusane Asylum,. James II. Moore,
Esq , leaves .this morning for his home
in Halifax, preparatory to entering upon
the duties as Agent of. the popular
North Carolina State Life Insurance
Company. Mr. Moore will also have an
agency in the well known North Caro
liua Fy e Insurance Company. We con
gratulate our friend upon his entering
upon what must be a pleasant and what
we doubt not will prove a prohtaole
employment, as this life insurance has
alreadv obtained a' popularity unprece-
dented in the hist..ry of life companies
in this State. We congratulate these
cornpariies upon securing the services
of such undoubced qualifications as Air.
