AER TNE
St. PATRICK'S DAT. —
‘ When Irith hills were fair and green,
And Irish fields were white with daisies,
And harvests golden and serene
Mlept in the lazy summer hages;
When bards went singing through the land,
Their grand old songs of knightly story ;
And heatts were found in every hand,
And all was peace, and love, and glory :
“Twas in the happy, happy days
Wheh every peasant lived in clover,
And if the pleasent woodland ways
One neter mot the begging rover ;
When all was honest, large and true,
And naught was hollow of \heatric;
‘Twas in the days of golden hue
That Ireland knew the great St Patrick.”
** History and Common Fame," it is gen-
erally conceded, says a cotemporary, are and
have been, the greatest liars in the world,
but notwithstanding this kind of admitted
fact, we shall attempt giving an Aistorical
sketch (true as a matter of coliree) of the
great distinguished, beloved and departed
Saint, whose name captions the present ar-
ticle.
St. Patrick was not a native of Ireland,
nor wes he born in Scotland, as many sup
pose, but he first saw light in the neighbor.
hood of Boulogne in the year 387; he was
taken prisoner by the Irish Monarch Nial, of
the Nine Hostages. in 403, when only 16
years old —that powerful [ibernian ravaging
the maratime districts of Gaul at that per
iod, Onarriving in Ireland he was with
other prisoners, sold as a slave and carried
into that section of the country now known
as Antrim. There his duty was the humble
one of tending sheep; and this quiet and
solitary occupatien giving him a capital op-
portunity to think, he formed plans for fu-
ture action At last he succeeded in escap-
“ing to Gaul, and reached once more his boy-
hood’s home. His friends and relatives, as
a matter of course, were delighted to see
+‘ charming Patrick,” and he was placed in
the College of Tours, where he studied diy
inity and fiaally became a Priest. * Patri-
cus ” did not fancy the cloister however:
and resolved (0 return to the country of his
eap'ivity to preach to the heathen, who
darkencd that besutiful land.
He landed in Dublin about the year 423,
and started at once for the region where he
had so long lived as a shepherd. He had fol-
fawers with him, and his party was attack-
«ed by a chiefiain named Dicho as they were
traveling to the interior, being mistaken for
@ band of pirates. But St. Patrick returned
good for evil, and made Dicho one of his
first converts—so that instead of being put
to death by him, he became one of his warm-
est friends and most zealous co operators in
spreading Christianity abroad.
The Saint celebrated divine worship first
n a barn called Subhal Padruc, o1 Patrick’s
barn, and finally lighted fires'on Tara Hill,
in h nar of Easter festival ; and they blazed
too, in the very eyes of the princes and
chieftains. among whom was king Lugaire.
Great was the astonishment of the nobles on
seeing this fire sporting up to the heavens
in sight of the [{alls of Tara, and the Saint
was summoned to the presence of Lugaire.
He addressed the King so eloquently and
ably on the subject of true religion that al
though almost persuaded to yield to his (the
Saint’) belief, he did not quite surrender. —
{le gave him permission to preach, however,
‘and the result was that he built a church on
_ the very spot which had before been devoted
3 to the sacrifices of the Draidical God, Crum
Cruach. Success continued to follow the
footsteps of St. Patrick during the whole
_ course of his exertions to spread Christian-
ity in Ireland—the Druids and others whose
cnmity he had to encounter, offering a less
{forcible resistance than is usual with the
supporters of a tottering system. His con-
verts embraced men of rank and learning
who became, ornaments of true religion ;
churches were erected in considerable num-
bers throughout Ireland, and to give the new
‘system the advantages of organization. the
See of Armagh was founded and it was filled
by St. Patrick himself. Whether he drove
the snakes aod other venomous reptiles out
of Ireland is an open question. We believe
he did, but our readers will have to form
their own conclusions in regard to it.
As to the Shamrock, mest of our readers
are no doubt aware thatit was adopted as
the Irish emblem because St Patrick, in ex-
plaining to the inhabitants the doctrine of
the Trinity, used the trefoil, or clover, as a
familiar illustration of} three injone.”’— Pat-
rive and Union.

ArRo0IoUs MoumpER.—It 1s with much
pain that we are called upon to chronicle
the fact of the murder, in cold blood. of Mr.
James D. Turner, a son of our old and re.
spected citizen Mr. Turaer, of this place, a:
Fort Union, which, we belisve, is in New
Mexico. Tt seems that he was murdered by
three Mexicans while asleep in bed, who
ghot him in the neck and side, ki'ling him
instantly. The murderers were caught and
confessed the deed, and when questioned as
to the canse of the devilish act, gave asa
reason, that Mr. Turner was an American or
Union Man! With thisit seems the auth.
orities were satisfied and the yellow bellied
villigng were relsagad. They have sinse
been pursued by a party of Union men from
the Fort, who have sworn that if they catch
them they will take the law into their own
hands. This 1s, indeed, a heart-rending oc~
currence, and to the paren's and friends of
Mr. Turner in this place, must be almost
unbearable. We feel assured that the kind.
ly sympathies of this whole community will
be with them in their sad bereavement.
o
PorriNg.—The public have a fanny notion
about printers. They think it costs nothing
to puff. advertise, &, and thus, one and
another will sponge an extra puff for some
benevolent advertisement. They forget that
it is the printer's ink that makes nine~tenths
of their fortunes. They forget that it takes
money to pay compositors— to buy ink. type
and paper ; and lastly they forget even to
thank you for working for nothing, by grat
uitously puffing their business.— Berwick

Parson Brownlow at Nashville.
NasnviLLe, March 15. —Parsoyg Brownlow
and his son arrived here to day. He says he
was imprisoned in the common jail at Knox-
ville, on December 6th, n viotation of an
agreement with the Rebel Government, and
confined in a small damp room. He was
there attacked by typhoid fever, when he
was removed to his residence and laid up for
six weeks under a strict guard. Having par
tly necovered, he got a pass from the Rebel
Government, and left Knoxville two weeks
io, bat he was detained. by order of Gen.
Hardee, at Shelbyville, for ten days. He
reached the United States lsnes this morn.

Mr. Brownlow declines starting a paper
here on account of ill health. He will pro-
reed north to publish the story of his martyr
dom. He is not affected by consumtion “as
reported.
Tae UNtoN FerLING AT Nasavinie.—A
frod deal has been said about the dormant
nion feeling in Tennessee. Most of the
statements about this ‘dormant fechng’
have been exaggerated. In Nashville we
ought to find a large proportion of loyal
men ; yet the assertions of those wo have
the best means of ascertaing the facts in the
case are, that loyalty to the Government is
to be found only among the mechames and
laboring classes of the city ; that the mer-
cantile and business men are nearly all sym
pathisers or abettors in the rebel cause. and
can only be made to side with the Gov.rn
ment, by repeated and unequivocal demons
strations of its ability to enforce national
law That this is true appears evident from
the fact that as soon as it became known
that the Federal army was advancing in
Nashville. all the business houses in the
city, with a few exceptions, closed their
doors, and many of the merchants commenc-
ed shipping their goods further South.—
Nearly all the gold and silver coin belong
ing to these merchants has been sent to At
lanta, Georgia,
The streets of Nashville wear a sad and
gloomy aspect. Whole rows of houses,
which two years ago were occupied by 1am-
ilies of wealth and respectability, surround-
ed by all the circumstances that ake
homes happy and prosperous, stand vacant.
and the gaze of the passer by is met instead
of. as in former days. with fine tapestiy |
windew curtains. and neatly polished mar
ble steps, with panes of dust dimm.d glass,
over which the spider has spread his web. as
if to hide from recognition the mournful va
cuity within.

Tre LoNpoN TMks ox THE BLOCKADE. —
The debate in the Britisa Parliament in re.
gard to the Southern blockade is highly in-
teresting, and, so far as the views of the
Government are developed. is going on sat-
isfactorily. But the London Times, the
long and persistent and virulent apologist of
the Confvderates, gives them a stunning
blow, Hear it :
«+ There are in London at this mom-nt not
a few gentlemen whose families and proper-
ty are in the Southern States, and who would
pay almost any sum to be enabled to return
home. to look afier their families in troubie
and their property gomg to ruin ; but after
considering the various alternatives of going
by Canada. by the Bahamas, or by Mexico,
have only come to the conclu-ion "that on+
route is more danzerous than another. and
that they would be more likely to find hem
selves occupying a black hole in Fort Lafay
ete than a family mansion in Georgia or
Carolina. Nor is it possible tn gainsav the
fallible test of the price of cotton. If L rd
Derby or any mercantile gentleman of his
way of thinking has a mind to make his for
tune at once, he has only to bny any amount
of cotton at New Orleans at 5d. a pound.
and. running the blockade. sell 1t at Liver
pool at 121. a pound. But. if that cannot be
done the blockade cannot be so utterly inef-
fectwe.

Tne Remains or Cor. CAMERON SENT
Home. —The remains of Col Cameron, of the
Seventy ninth New York Highlanders, who
was killed at Bull un, have been recovered
and were sent to Harrisburg this evening. —
The party who started out in search of the
remains immediately after th- evacuation of
Manassas was composed of Major A V. Ei
liott and Mr. John Keene, of the War De-
partment, and the Orderlv Sergeant of the
late Colonel Cameron. When they reach
ed the old battle ground. they were led
the spot by a colored man in the neighbor
hood.
The body had been buried with five oth-
ers without a coffin. It was easily recos
nized by certain marks, as the clothing was
to a great extent entire. The hair was al
most perlect, althou:h the flesh had almosi
entirely decayed from the bones. A truss
of a peculiar construction which the Colonel
wore was also found in its proper place on
his remains The corpse was brought to
the city last evening. Secretary Stanton
rendered the assistance in his power for the
recovery of the remams. Tt is not settled
whether the funeral will take place at Har
risburg or Lancaster.

Are you sick, feeble, and

ranged, sud your feelings up
camfortuble! These symp.
toms are often the prelude so
serious ilinwe. Sumo fit of
sickuess ix creeping upon you,
and should be svevied Ly a
timely wee of the right rene
edy. Take Ayer's Pills aud
eleansa cut the disordered ha-

‘They stimulate the functivas

3 the obstructions which make
disense. A cold svttles somewhere in the body, and ob-
| structs ite natural functions. These, if not relieved,
react u themselves and the surrounding organs, pro-
ducing di aggravation, suffering, and disease.
While in this condition, oppressed by the derangements,
take Ayer's Pills, and see how directly they restore tho
natural actien of the system, and with it the Luoyant
foeling of health again. What is true and so apparent in
this trivial and common complaint, is also true Ln uny
of the deep-seated and dangerous distempers, The same
purgative effect expels them. Caused by similar obstruct.
tions and derangements of the natural functions of the
body, they are rapidly, and many of them surely, cured
by the same means. None who know the virtues of these
Pills, will neglect to employ them when sullering from
the disorders they cure.

Dr. Aver: Your Pills are the paragon of all they is

of ulcerous sores upon her hands and feet that had proved
incurable for years. Ier mother has been long griev-

As a Family Physic.
From Dy. E. W. Cartwright, New Orleans.
Your Pills are the prince of purges. Their excollent
(malities surpass any cathartic wo possess. They arn
mild, but very certain and effectual in their action on the
bowels, which makes them invaluable to us in the daily
treatment of diseaso.
Headache,SickHeadache,Foul Stomach.
From Dr. Fdwaid Boyd, Baltimore. *
Dear Bro. Aver: Icannot answer you what complaints
1 have cured with your Pills better than to say all that we
ever treat with a purgative medicine. 1 place great depen-
dence on an effectual cathartic in my daily contest with
disease, and believing as I do that your Pills afford us the
best we have, I of course value then highly.
| Prrrseera, Pa, Nay 1, 1855.
Dr. J.C. Aver. fir: I have been repeatedly eured of
the worst keadacle any body can have by a dose or {wa
of your Pills. It seems to arise from a foul stomach,
which they cleanse at once.

Bilious Disorders — Liver Complaints.
Prom Dr. Theodore Bell, of New York City.
Not only are your Pills udmirably adapted to their pnr-
pose as an aperient, but T find their beneficial effects upon
the Liver very marked fudecd. They have in my prac-
tice proved more effectual for the cure of bilious com-
| plaints than any one remedy I can mention. 1 sincerely
rejaice that we have at length a purgetive which is wor-
thy the confidence of the profession aud the people.
DEPARTMENT OP THE INTERIOR,
Washington, D. C., 7th Feb, 1858,
Sir: I have used your Pills in my general and hospital
practice ever since you made them, and cannot hesitate to
gay they are the best cathartic wo employ. Their regu-
lating action on the liver is quick and decided, comse-
quently they are an adwirable remedy for dernnugenicnts
of that ergan. Indeed, I Lave seldom found a cuse of
bilious disease so obstinute that it did not readily yicid to
them. EFraterually yours, ALONZO BALL, M.D,

Dysentery, Diarrhoea, Relax, Worms.
From Dr. J. G. Green, of Chicago.
Your Pills have had a loug trial in my practice, and I
bold them in esteem as one of the best aperients I knve
ever found. Their alterative effect upon the Hyer mnkes
them an excellent remedy, when givea in small doses for
bilious dysentery and diwrriea. heir sugar-coaling
makes them very acceptable and convenient for the use
of wemen and children.
Dyspepsia, Impurity of the Blood.
From ev. J. V. Himes, Pustor of Advent Churo, Doston.
Dr. Aver: I have used your Pills with extraordinary
success ip my family and among those I am called to visit
im distress. To regulate the organs of digestion and
purify the blood, they ave tho very best vemedy J havo
ever known, and 1 can confidently recommend them to
my friends. Yours, J. V HIMES.

Fyrom Dr. J. I". Vaughn, Mmtracl, Conada.
Too much cannot be said of your Pills for the eure of
costiveness. If others of our fraternity have found them
as efficacious as I have, they should join me in proclaim-
| ingit for the benefit of the multitudes who suffer frem
that complaint, which, although bad enough in itself, is
the progenitor of others that are worse, 1 helieve cas
tiveness to originate in tho liver, but your Pills affect that
organ and cure the disease, °
From Mrs. E. Stuart, Physician end Midwife, Boston.
1 find ene or two large doses of your Pills, taken at the
preper time, are excellent promotives of the natural secre-
tien when wholly or partially suppressed, and also very
effectual to cleanse the stomach and espel worms. They
are so much the best physic we have that I recommend
no other to my patients.

Hoxorep Sin: I shonld be ungrateful for the relief
your skill bas brought me if I did not report my case to
you. A cold settled in my limbs and brought om excen-
ciating newraljic pains, which ended m chronic rhauma-
tism. Notwithstanding T had the best of physicians, the
disease grew worse and worse, until by the advice of your
excellent agent in Baltimore, Dr. Mackenzie, I tried your
Pills. Their effects were slow, Lut sure. By persevering
in the use of them, I ain now entirely well.
