LANCASTER DAILY INTELLIGENqil, THURSDAY, MARCH 17, 1881.
ST. FATKICK'S HAT.
Seme Account of the Great Apostle and tne
Introduction et Christianity Inte Ire
land: Before HU Day.
St. Patrick's day in the morning opened
, raw and cloudy, but, for a wonder, net
stormy. There is no special observance
of the day in this city, though in many of
the larger cities parades, diuners, orations
and ether festivities are being bad.
It is net known positively where or
when the great apostle was born. Beth
France and Scotland claim him.
He was born about the year 372. At the
age of sixtecu he was captured by a band
of marauders, carried te Ireland, sold into
slavery and escaped to.Scetland. Carried
off a second time and again escaping, he
visited Italy, became a devoted Christian
and was Gnally sent by Pepe Celcstiu, in
the year 432, as archbishop of Ireland,
where h'.s preaching was se effective that
the whole people were seen converted
fiem Druidism te Christianity, and he
was recognized dm ing his life as the great
apostle, and after his death, which occur
red at Down, Ulster, in 464, as the patron
saint of Ireland.
It is net true, however, as many people
suppose that Christianity was introduced
into Ireland by Patrick, and that until his
arrival, the natives weie ignorant and
illiterate heathen. On the contrary, they
were long before the time of Patrick
among the most polished and enlightened
people en earth, and it is te this fact that
their ready acceptance of the truths of
Christianity as enforced by the wendciful
eloquence of the illustrious preacher, is
attributed.
O'llalleran, in his History of Ireland,
offers many curious proofs te show thai
the history and religion of the Jews weie
well known in Ireland long before the ir ir
carnatien of Christ, and that the Christian
religion was iu a Heutishing condition in
Ireland long before the arrival of St. Pat
rick. During the long reign of Cormae,
which terminated A. I). 239, the historian
informs us that Cormae, "aided by the
light of reason and assisted by some pious
Christians for there is no doubt, as we
shall show, hut that Christianity made
some pregicss in Ireland before this time
he became convinced of the absurdity
of Druidism and disclaimed it. That lie
dicda Christian we are furnished with two
strong proofs. Fiist, though he was choked
by a bone of a salmon sticking across the
(esophagus, which weuldn t be pushed
either up or down, yet he made a dying
icquest net te be iuteried iu Iteilicli ua
Iliegh, the royal sepulehie. as he wished
net that his ashes should mix with these
of his heathen anccsteis. Secondly, the
place of his interment wa, near three cen
turies alter, sought for and found out by
St. Celutnb.i, who Mid thirty masses ever
it, and a chapel was .seen after erected
there. It v.vre absurd te suppose that this
renowned apostle of the Picts and of his
own bleed, would celebrate masses for the
s ul of Cormae if it were net known that
hi died a Christian." Page 123.
Further en (page 140) the historian con
tinues : 4 At a very early period Christian
ity was pi cached iu Ireland. The constant
enmity between this country and ancient
Keine, prevented any kind of friendly in
tercourse. This dectiiuc came net im
mediately from thence here but from the
churches of Asia Mansu
etus, an IiUhmau. the flmt bishop and
patron of Teul, and canonized by Lee IX.,
is saitl te have been a disciple of St. Peter
St. James, the son of Zubedcc, it is af
firmed, also preached the gospel iu Ireland.
Te me it would rather seem that Mansu
ctus and the ether early Christians weie
rather the disciples of St. Jehn the Evan
gelist." It was net until the year 431 that Pepe
Celcstiu sent P.illadius, arch deaceu of the
Reman church, as archbishop and apostle"
of Ireland. His mission was attended
with no gieat success, and en his death
Patiickwas appointed his successor, aud
landed ifi Ireland iu 432, and en visiting
Munstcr, some years later, found many
chinches aud monasteries which had been
established long before the Reman pout ill"
was known as mch, or his autheiity ac
knewlcdgcd.
THE PANTOMIME. "
A I'acltcd Heuse and Fine Shew.
One of the largest audiences of the sea
son was 'drawn te the opera house last
night by Teny Deuier's pantomime troupe
Every seat iu the house was occupied and
standing room could scarcely be had at 8
o'clock. The performance, as usual, was
first class, and a better pleased audience
was net at the opera house this year. The
pantomime of "Tickled : or, Humpty
Dutnpty Newly Hatched," was given.
Gee. II. Adams, the unrivaled young J
clown, was m the best el humor, and
his acting almost convulsed the audience
with laughter. life is certainly the bet
clown new befeic the public, and is capa
ble of making any one laugh. He is very
active and his act en stilts iu the second
pai t was simply wonderful. Jehn O. Hall
supported Mr. Adams admirably as pant a
loon. William Eunice is a very getd
haricuuiii, and Mis Victeria North
a sprightly and fascinating columbine.
A great many new tricks were shown
and they were all well worked. Tuere
were two acts iu the pantomime, and be.
tween them the specialty people were seen.
These artists have been carefully selected
and they are certainly very strong in their
lines. Charley Schilling's musical act was
first-class. Prof. W. 11. Few is a capital
ventriloquist. Instead of having wooden
liguics Mr. Few had his hands dressed up
iu comical costumes and had them talking.
The living automata of Mens. and Mile.
Tisset weie very funny, and the audience
was puzzled te knew hew they were work
ed. Miss Alice Celeman played very well
en the'banje, cornet and xylopheti3. Lit
tle Tedd's balauciug act was clever, as
was his tumbling. Jehn aud Joe Sparks,
the Irish comedians, were excellent ; their
act is new, and they were received with
storms of applause. The Rnmurez treujie
played a number of fine instalments and
made very pretty music. The lest act
was given up entirely te pantomime, and
the clown, pantaloon, harlequin and col
umbine were seen iu many funny acts
The music of the orchestra, under the
leadership of Win. Nunn, was a feature
of the show. The whole show was geed
and it is by far the best company of the
kind that visits this eity. The company
appears iu Columbia te-night, aud the
citizens of that town can rest assured that
they will have a treat
During the stay of the company in this
city, Mr. Adams, the clown, and his wife
were the gucs of Dr. S. T. Davis.
Sudden Death at Oxford.
William S. Harlan, a highly re
spected citizen of Oxford borough,
died Monday evening about nine o'clock.
He was about retiring for the night
when he fell forward en the fleer
and expired in a few seconds. He enjoyed
a large circle of friends and was highly es
teemed in the community. He held the
office of notary public and was en the
streets the day before he died. He was
between 50 acd CO years of age.
Fire This Morning
Between one and two o'clock this morn
a frame ice-house belonging te Jehn Best,
and situated in the yard of his iron works
en the corner of Piuni street and the Pen
nsylvania railroad, was destroyed by fire.
The building is supposed te have been set
en fire, although it is very close te the
railroad and may have caught from a
spark. The fire companies were promptly
en hand and they saved a considerable
portion of the structure. The less will be
about $30, and there is no insurance.
Mayer's Coart.
His honor had five customers only this
morning and of these only one was committed.
COLUMBIA NEWS.
OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENCE.
Market this morning was rather dull.
In last evening's performance one of the
showmen publicly slandered our towns
man Mr. F. 6. Bletz. This style of doing
things does net pay in the long run.
A rolling mill boy named Ladenbergcr
was sent te Lancaster this morning for
larceny in charge of Officer Fisher.
Mr. Geerge Smith, a Pennsylvania rail
road engineer, is a deserving fisherman.
He get his tackle together yesterday and

Rev. Themas B. Barker, of Lancaster,
will officiate this evening in St. Paul's
Episcopal church.
Mr. Harry Tregear, a former resident of
Columbia, but at present of Philadelphia,
was visiting friends in town yesterday.
The Pennsylvania railroad ticket agent
at this place has received orders te sell
excursion tickets te Yerk te-day, for the
lecture ei Rev. Themas Guard, provided a
party of twenty-five can be raised.
St. Patrick's Day is here, but the
wcather accompanying it is exceptionally
geed, t. e. geed for the day. We have had
no hail, rain, snow or high and cold winds
as yet, bufrthere is still plenty of time.
Ne observance of the day has yet taken
place iu Columbia and we have net heard
that anything out of the usual order will
apiiear.
Teny Denier's Humpty Dumpty panto
mime company will appear in the opera
house this evcuing, and will probably be
giectcd by a large audience, as pantomime
performances always take. The company
has a geed band with it and iu a street
parade this morning it drew quite a large
following.
Daniel Somers, a brakeman en Penn
sylvania railroad, engine Ne. 103, had his
right hand mashed at Parkesbnrg this
morning while coupling cars. He was
brought te his home at this place en the
mail train this morning.
Engine Ne. 017 going east this morning
broke the main pin en its left side and re
turned te Columbia at about 12:30 o'clock,
running only one side, and of course dis
ablcd. It will require several days te re
place the broken pin.
The Leuis Martini combination appeared
before a fair-sized audience in the opera
house last evening in " Around the World
in Eighty Days." The performance lell
ll.it and, except where America was coni ceni
plimentally alluded te, called forth abso
lutely no applause. The ill-success of the
company is owing in some part te the
music they had with them. We under
stand the receipts amounted te about $140.
Rev. Themas Guard will lecture in Yerk
this evening and he will be listened te by
a number of Columbians, who are about
completing arrangements for transporta
tion. The central Pennsylvania conference
is new in session there.
Every evening of the week, en the arri
val of the 6:20 train from the east, a num
ber of loud-mouthed boys assemble iu the
ante-room of the posteSBco te the great
annoyance of all persons of mere matuie
years who go there for mail. Net only de
they create a din that lasts as long as they
remain, but the ante room is se crowded
that it is almost impossible te force one's
way through. It is a question whether
one out of a dozen of them has business
iu the office, and we thiuk it would be
well te give the matter some attention
and oust all who cannot explain that they
arc there with some specific object. Mr.
Hayes Gricr, of the Herald, tried e step
the noise last evening, but some of the
youngsters "wanted te knew what he had
te de with it."
Mr. A. M. Rambo.editer of the Ceu'rant,
iu his isuc of this date, says that your
correspondent "can easily be proven a liar
by any one who has authority te open the
ballet-box of the late election First
ward.." This is a brilliant idea en the
part of Mr. Rambo, but it is one that he
knows as well as we knew or as well as
any one else knows can never be consum
mated, as the ba! et-bex in question can
not be opened without an order from the
court, and it is hardly likely -that the
ceuit would order the box te be opened te
find out hew Mr. Rambo voted. Before
the election Mr. Rambo said he would vote
for Jehn A. Slade for school director be
cause lie considered him the best candi
date of either party for the office. It
makes but little difference te us whether
Mr. Rambo lied before or after the clcc clcc
ten. THE ROY BOBBKBV.
The Uun and Seme Other Articles Re-
covered.
William Rexroth, the tramp bookbinder
who robbed Rey's bindery, night before
last, some particulars of which appeared
in yesterday's Intelligencer, was visited
in jail this morning, and asked where the
gun which had been stolen could be found.
He asked for a piece of paper and wrote
upon it that the gnu could be found at
Captain Schuh's Washington house, North
Queen street.
Mr. G. M. Zahm, accompanied by an
officer, went te the Washington house
and was given the gun. Capt. Schuh in
forming him that Rexroth had left it there
after getting twenty cents worth of drink
and saying lie would go down street and
get some change and then call for it. The
gun was wrapped up in a gum coat
which Rexroth had also stolen from
the bindery, and wrapped in the coat
were also some ether stolen tools belong
ing te Mr. Rey. When the prisoner was
searched at the jail several books of geld
leaf were found en him, he having stolen
seventeen books in all. It was also dis
covered that he had drank about three
half-pints of alcohol used in the bindery for
dissolving the colors used in ruling paper
and filled the bottle with water. The
discovery was made when the workmen
attempted te mix the colors, it being im
possible te mix them with water.
The Owl " Captured.
Pettwillc Chronicle.
Saturday night when Themas Ehly, son
of Ceal & Iren Policeman Sam'l Ehly,
and agent for the Oicl, received lus
package of papers he was given an op
portunity te sell a few when Geerge Ochs
CJiiGscated the remainder. Mr. Ochs has
been undeservedly slurred en mere than
one occasion in the dirty sheet and
auethcr libelous insinuatieu appeared in
the last number. The papers te the num
ber of 101 were placed in the cus
tody of Justice Claudy who still holds
them. This number of the publication
is fully equal te any previous numbers for
filthy personalities. JNet content with vili
fying young meu the correspondent at
this place attacked the reputation of a
respectable widow and her two daughters,
a school teacher and a number of young
ladies of eminently respectable fam ilies,
the only foundation for the disgraceful
insinuations arising from a contemptibly
low and morally rotten mind.
