ST. PA FRICK'S DAY.

-.0..,

Yesterday being the Anniversary of the Festival of St. ['Africk,
it was celebrated, as formerly, at the Freema.ons' Tavern. At had
pa.t sit o'clock the Marquis of Dammam's took the chair. Antal
the distinguished guests we observed, on the right baud of the No.
hie Chairman. the Earl of Wicklow and Load Pitnike:t ; and tioug
hit left band, the Marquis of Loodoodeary and Lord' Godench.
The gallery was unusually thin of the fairer rex.
After the grace of ". Nun Nubia." the Noble Chairman row—.
I have a toast to propose," sent the Marquis, which, a, the
Pr.-side:trot this Society, I sin lu daty humid to give; anal, behave
I give you this sentiment, I ought to state that the Society has ais.
coved our hundred guineasi the amount tat has Msjeny's most v...
curio bounty to it. • I therefore lave to propose to you, Gautier
men, to drink In bumpers,' ilia Majesty's heath. and loos foe to
bin e."

This sentiment was received wills four times far ; but certainly
not with that entitusia•m which gladdened the olden times, for the
words 0 confound their politica, ' iu " God save the King," struck
the assembly in the character of a warning voice.
After the toast of " the Duke of Clarence, and the rest of the
Royal Family," there followed the glee, of " Now, the bright
morning star, the words from. Millen.
" The navy," with three times three, followed nest, with the
noble song called Ruk, Britannia;" alter which " General
Lord Hill and the Army" was given from the chair.
According to the lteport, which was read by the Secretary, the
increased funds of this Society had enabled them heteely to wilts
all the children, and yet SOO were waiting for admission.
Cuaranast—The next twat I shall give, Gentlemen, ie. 4. the
Benevolent Society of St. Patrick." 1. lately have elated time
schools, and I entertain as &obi but that they will ultimately be.
able to compete with that excellent institution, the Walsh Cliaritif
School.

The children were introduced, opt, however, so nauseously as
fornicrly, and dressed not as heretofore in peen, but brownish cloth.
After the toasts of the " Lord Lieuknant of Ireland." and
" Prosperity to Ireland," and also 'ha " Patronesses of St. Patrick,"
The Noble Curium/in said, that be bad to propose the health of
an individual whose very name commanded respect, but concern-
'. g whom he was incoopetent to speak in adequate terms. The
aentiment he wished to propose was, " The health of his Grace
the Duke of Wellington, who now presided at the bead at his Ma.
leafs Goverentent."—Dranl with three times three.
The Marquis of LONDOSOKIIST said. that he &It great pleasure ie
attending the meeting, and complimented the Chairman as an Irish
L.ndlord.

The Noble CHAIM/AI (his health having been drank) expresard
his conviction tbat there was nu country which was so grateful for
the benefits they derived from the residence of their latidlerds as
the Irish, and be was happy to rank several Noble Lords aiming
his acquaintance as resident Nobility in that tummy. But he wished
on this occasion to abstain from politics. as, whatever might be the
question, sound education wuuid enable the people to enjoy the
bb snap, or endure the privations, of the conststutioa.
Vt.count Gommieu's health being drank, be expressed his min
entice that, understanding it to be the duty of the Uentieniar, tat
Nobleman, who presided at one Anniversary to attend at the en-
suing, he had met the &city this day; but he stood upon still
higher grounds, became he felt a warm and intense interest. in the
concirass ut a Society, which was noble iu its tidal's. discreet in its
management, and unbounded in its befievoledte. 'lllth these feel.
tugs be partook of the kind festivities of the day. and spun that
account would abstain (tom politics.
" Lord Ilunkett's health" constituted the ant toast. when lib
Lordship said. that his heart was so fell that he vivid not trust
kinisell in dilate on the subject stlU nearest to it.
Atter the subscriptions were announced, the " Memory of their
Royal Highnesses the Dukes of York and Kern," and also ot the
iklarqu sea ut Hastings and Cholmoudeky," were drank in silence.
The Marquis ut LONDOUDZIIII V said, that he did not wish to din
curb their political harmony, but he was glad, neon his conadence,
that it was reserved for an Irish soldier to give peace to Ireland. If
that consummation, so devoutly to be wished, should be coneeded.-
lie hoped and trusted that the .people of the sister kingdom would
know how to appreciate the bouu.
Mr. O'Comumes health being drank, he regretted the necessity
he was under of returning thanks. and deprecated all allusions so
politics. Gratitude, grateful though be felt, had nothing to do MO
politics, except as being a sense at tut use benefits. • His heart best
