PATRICK'S DAY.—Friday, the 17th inst., will be celebrated as the birth-day of St. Patrick, the patron Saint of Ireland.— Historians differ not only as to the day of his birth, but also as to the place of his na tivity. His Laptismal name was Succuth, but at the time of his ordination by St. Germain it was changed to Magonlas ; and it was not until his appointment by the Popo to the bishopric of Ireland that be had conferred upon him the name of Patricius. It appears from the most authentic records that Patrick was born in Wales about the year 372. The book of Lecan says his mother was a Frank. She was sister of St. Martin, Bishop of Tours. Patrick, with his father, mother, brother and live sisters, em barked from Wales for Brittany, probably to avoid the dangers and distresses which a country exposed to hostile in vasions must ever be in. The Irish under Niel! the Grand, soon after in ended Brittany, and among the number of captives they made, was Patrick and two of his sisters. This invasion of Brittany happened A. D. 388, at which time Patrick was sixteen years old. He lived in slavery seven years, and after his redemption and return to his friends, he averred that in a vision he saw a man coming to him from Ireland with letters, the beginning of which was vox Ilibernigensium; and that while perusing it, he heard the natives call to him for instruction. From this time forward he determined to consecrate his life to the Church, and to convert the 'rish. On the death of Palladius, the first bishop of Ireland, Pope Celestin, appointed Pat rick to succeed him. His missionary suc cess was wonderful. lie converted and baptized the King of Munster, Dublin and Connaught, while their subjects almost of writer forsook the faith of the Druids and embraced Christianity. It is recorded that during his mission of sixty-one years in Ireland lie consecrated three hundred and sixty-live bishops and ordained three thousand priests. Ile made Armagh the primacy of all Ireland and founded a uni versity there which was the chief of all the Christian &seminaries on the island, which rank it maintained for centuries—having at one time no less than seven thousand students. Many miracles are recorded as having been wrought by St. Patrick, one of the most notable being the banishment all VellOMOus reptiles from the island. l le died according to O'Halloran, at Down, in Ulster, in the year 453, aged about 1.2.0 years. In explaining the doctrine of the Trinity to the Irish Druids, it is said that he pluck ed from the ground a leaf of the shamrock and showed them how the three leaves were united and yet were but one. From his day to the present the shamrock has been an emblem of Irish nationality and Chris tianity. The genuine union of the three leaves of the shamrock, and the unnatural 1110011 of England, Scotland and Ireland, aro' thus ciiiitrashiii by a favorite Irish lat : The till:mi. - wit', the RAJ,. and Ihe Thiiitle 1,111- i/1114i, Have long RS emblems of 11111011 entwined; :it oh: they 1 . 1-gard lot the emerald stein.

Mr. Zahm was born on the ]nth of November 1757, on the same street, though not In the same house, In which Ito died, Ile learned the trade .of a brush-maker, and married in IsuS, shortly after he was out of his apprenticeship. lie opened a shop in Prince street, next door to his late residence, and by industry, coin /Illy, anti strict integrity's won the respeu Mail who knew him, though his earnings at that tittle were barely sufficient to com fortably support hie young Just prior to the breaking out of the war of 1517 , by the advice and with the assist ance of Sillllo Wealthy ;Helots who appal elated his industry and honesty, he Was induced to invest largely in the purchase of imported bristles. The subsequent em bargo greatly enhanced their value, and laid the foundation of Ids fortune. Fur inure than half a century he followed his trade oti l'ri lice street, above orange, hav ing retired from business less than ten years ago. While quite a young man he took posi tion among the more prominent a n d active citizens of his day.

When the ques tion of introducing water into the city was first agitated, Mr. %Aim was elected as a friend of the measure, and aided aterial lv in its accomplishment. While a Councilman he was frequently a member of the more important cool minces, particularly of the Finance Com- I ininee, and from the care with which he guarded the city funds, and the skill with which lie almost always carried his point in opposition to excessive appropriations, he acquired from his friends the soubriquet of "the watch dog," while his opponents called Into "old allyrand." in politics he was not a partisan, but neither party could deleat him in his own ward, and he WILY frequently elected to Councils Willie/La rtppltsl lanai. lie was elected and re-elected several times as a Directer of the Pour, and was for Many years a useful member of the School Board. lie was also ant active fireman and was for a king period Treasurer of the • Friendship Hose Company. - Ile was from his youth a consistent member of the Moravian Chinch, which he attended regularly, and to the sup port of which he contributed liberally. We heard an anecdote this morning Whion I is well calculated to illustrate the practical Hirai of his Christian charity. Many years ago a reverend clergyman called upon itim to subscribe to a missionary fund, but Mr. I Zahin did not feel inclined just then to con tribute. As an inducement to get him to do so the minister informed him that he had but a few dam before called upon a poor widow woman in Litiz, a n d that she hail given him the last silver half dollar she had in the world. tier liber ality, he said, was an example well worth Milo w ing by others, particular , ly by those who had been blessed with an abundance of this world's goods. "And did you take the widow's half-dollar'?" in q i red Mr. %all m , with some warmth. " t if course I did; it was the widow's mite." "'Then sir, 1 Will not give you one cent: the act was a scandalous one ; you should have put your hand in your own pocket and given the widow a few half-dollars, as I shall ilm" For years past, it ha, been the custom of Mr. %Aim, upon his birthday, to givo bounteous dinner to the inmates of the Chil dren's Home, and we believe he has set apart a fund to be devoted hereafter to the same charitable purpose. Another fact exemplifying Mr. Zaffin's practical and genial benevolence is this: Neveral years ago he divided his estate equitably among his heirs—retaining for hunself only a sufficient income to meet all ordinary and contingent expenses, includ ing his charities. If at the end of the year a balance remained, it too was to be divided amongst his relatives at the annual birth day gathering. s:otwithstanding, his advanced ago his health was quite good until a few montsh ago, :tiid he retained his mental faculties to the last, and died in the full assurance of a happy hereafter. Peace to his ashes. (Soon mist EmzmikdirrowN.—Mr. A. Harrowlt of the above place, we think can beat the county for largo tobacco. Ile do livered 4,201 Ois gathered front 11 acres of ground.
