He states positively that fct Patrick was born at Hely Tours, in Armeric Gaul, in 873. Thcre he spent his early youth until the arrival et the fleets and armies of Niall Necal lach in pursuit of the Reman legions, which bad invaded Ireland and met with fgnomln fgnemln fgnomln ens defeat, Having- disposed of the Remans, the Celts proceeded te ravage the country. The wise monarch Ifiall was assassinated by M.Irish vassal en the bank of the Leire. His naval armament returned te Ireland in S8P. Among the spoils taken back with them were 1X0 children for slaves, nmeng them the boy Patrick. Thus, whlle the less of Niall was a great ene te Ireland, she re ceived an incstlmable blessing in this holy personage, who was then 10 years of nge. His father's name was Calphumlus nnd his mother's Cencelsa, which indicates that they were of Reman extraction. They were both killed by tbe Irish invaders. His bap tismal name was net Patrick, butSuccatb, meaning valiant In war. Jfone of the his torians have attempted te record anything et his youthful history. In IKS) he was sold te tbe petty prince, Jlilche Uuanan, nnd his tbrce brother?, fa the province of Dalaradia..jn -"".JSh of Ire land. en4jirn-BlRuCjfe,? Thls was tbe occasion et his name being changed te .-'"Cetteraig, becouse he served four masters. Milcho, observing hew careful and diligent he was, purchased tbe shares of his thrce brothers, and thus becarae sole proprietor et the boy. He eentblm te feed the hogs en BUev-nur's, and Bt Patrick himself describes this part of his life as follews: "My constant business was te feed the hogs. X was frequent in prayer; the leve and fear of Ged mero and mero inflamed my heart; my faith was enlarged; my spirit augmented; se that I said an hundred pray ers by day and almost as many by night. I arose before day te my prayers, in the snow, in the frost, in tbe rain; nor was I affected by slethfulncss, for then the spirit of Ged was warm within me." It was here that he perfected himself in the Irish language. He completed his six years of servitude, and then, according te tbe law which eecma te have been in force, he was released. He tells us he was then warned in a dream te prepare te return te his native land. Upen arriving tbcre he was again seized and token into captivity, but regained his freedom again in two months history does net say hew. u y Then he enjoyed two years with his rela tives, after which he was warned through n vision that there was work for him te de in Ireland, and that he should return there. . He resolved then te carry out his long cherished wish te attempt the work of con verting Ireland. Te fit himself for this work he spent many years in travel and study. Then, having been clothed with authority from the pep"t he sailed for Ireland with twenty eolaberers, all men of great piety and wisdom. He landed first in Britain and preached for several days with great suc cess. Here he increased his following te thirty-four and proceeded te Ireland, land ing en the coast of "Wicklow, -nhcre he at once began his labors. His first convert was Slncll, a great man in that country, and he seen added the king, queen nnd many of tbe nobility. His innovation was strongly opposed by the Druldical priests, who naturally wished te proscrve the great power they held ever the pcople through their supposed magical and mystifying acts. But legend Rajs that St. Patrick's miraculous powers seen put the magicians te shame. Tbe antagonism of tba Druids was se bitter that, in splte et his bone volence and gentleness, St, Patrick was compelled te cursothelc fertile lands se that they beceme dreary begs; te cune tbeir rivers se that they produced no fish, nnd their kettles se that no flre could inake them boil, and Anally te curse the Druids them selves se that the earth opened and swalleu ed them up Many ether miracles nre ascribed te St, Patrick, prominent among vhlch was the setting en flre, by blowing upon it, of a pile et snowballs and chunks of ice, which he had told his companions te gather when they complained et the bitter cold ene morning. All the world knows that te tit. Patrick is ascribed tbe credit et tbe freedom of Irclind from snakes. Colgan solemnly states that St. Patrick accomplished the feat of banishing the reptiles through the instrumentality of u drum, which he beat with such fervor that he burst the head, and that an nngel at ence oame te the rcscue and mended It. Tbe work of St. Patrick in Ireland will llve as long as the island continues te held its verdant fields and valleys. In c cry part nre flourishing churches and grand cathedrals organized and established by him, monu ments te his fame in this world and gems for his diadem in the Beautiful City, where he is withtbe Master he se earnestly and cflicicntly served. In the year 401 St. Patrick journeyed tc Reme, whero he was received with jeyby the pepe, and confirmed In his aposte'tto of Ire land. He returned te Irelad"in 4C3. 4Ie lived for thirtvyjars nf ter this, mostly in retiremenpbttheugh he did net neglect the Oacerns of tbe church, but, through synods ,-iind ecclesiastical councils, he exercised a general supervision. The number of churches sold te have been established by him is TOO. Tbcse last thirty yeirs of his eventful and holy life were spent, for the most part, be tween the monasteries of Saballum nnd Ar magh. He concluded his ministry and hit llte in the Abbey of Saul, en the 17th of March, 493, in the 120th year of his age, as It supposed. lie was buried at Down. The English invaded Ulster iu 1185, and in llbfl the remains of St Patrick, St. Columb and St. Brigld, en the 0th of June, were, by the pope's nuncio, transferred te e place pre pared for them in the cathedral of Down, af terward called St. Patrick's. It was enacted that the anniversary of the finding of the relics should be regularly celebrated through out Ireland forever. The church of Down and the saint's shrine were profaned by Leenard, Lord Gray, lord deputy of Ireland, in 1538. Thrce years later he was beheaded en a scaffold en Tew tr hill. Londen, for treason, and his ignominious cud was looked upon by Catholics as a judgment from Ged for his sacrilege, RIDDING IRELAND OF THE SNAKES.

PATRICK. till Chair biiiI llfll Tlie Kltclinl of SI. Kiiln. Of ceurse Ireland abounds in memorials of the saints, nnd most of St, Patrick, whoae noted "chair" is a rudely fashioned rock In the Glen of Altudavcn. The tradition h that it was originally n "cromlech" or Druid monument, nud te make it a memorial of tbe fact that the old religion hadliccii driven out I t " hT. r-ATmcic's cuxin. by Christianity, it was fashioned into "St. Patrick's chair." "St Patrick's lxM" nnd quaint old shrlne nttcst the fact, stated by St. Bernard, that the Irish Mint fixed his metropolitan tee nt Armagh; but the con version of Ireland u re rnpld nnd complete that several ether bishops were seen ap pointed and met him in council at Annnglu They ilovetcd nil the Inndt granted thorn te holy purposes, and fervent r.cnl uniting with unselfish piety, the schools and churches founded en theso lands Men bccnme the light of northwestern 1'urope. 8T. rATIUCK'H HUM. AND HIIUINi:. At Glcndnleugh, St. Kevin, wdie lived seen after St. Pali irk, founded u famous ablicy, nreund which a city grew. "St, Kevin's Kitchen," as it is railed, 13 all that remains of the church. The round tower near by was tbcre befere the Christian times, nnd is a puzzle te nutiqu.'iil.uis. "St. Kiernn's Cress," another notnlile rvlle, was put up RemeLTJO years nftcrSt. Patrick. The mis sion of the pnlien mint was followed by JXX) years of progress, glory nnd civilization, in which Ireland sent missionaries te nil the ,'tl imvm hT. kkvin'h kitchen. nclghlwlng lands; then enme the Danes, nnd for iSOU ycirs there was almost continuous war. Scarcely were the Danes expelled when the Nerman came, and the wars of the Conquest follencd. In theso troubled times the country receded almost te the original barbarism. Thus iu Ireland wa h:ie the unique ense of two cms of brightut-ss nnd civilization divided by n long iva of dark ness; and we can only callcr that se much is prcsei ed of the iliij of St. Pntrlrk.
