St, Patrick's Day.

Last Friday was the day sacred to the memory
of the patron Saint Of Ireland-St. Patrick-who
died 18th of March, A. d. 493. The day was
observed as u holiday by the Irishmen engaged
at work upon the railroad and other public i'm
provements We have heard it said that ST.
Patrick's Day never passes by without rain last
Friday, however, was an exception to the gene
raj rule, not i drop falling during the day.
St Patrick was in many respects remarkable
man, and popular superstition has invested him
with miraculous powers. 1t is supposed that he
was born in Gaul, about the close of the 18th cen-
fury. After some years Of captivity in ireland,
he made his escape and returned to his own coun-
try. Having taken orders and prepared himself
for the work of the ministry, he was sent on a
mission TO Ireland by Pope Celestine in the year
432. Although the Irish were, at that date, a
rude and barbarous people, he succeeded, chiefly
by his own exertiOns, in converting them to his
faith. From that day to this he has held the
highest place in the affections and confidence Of
the Irish people, and the day of his death is OBJ
served as a national festival.

MIR. Letoher,s Snecoh.

We extend to the efficient representative oil
this District in Congress, the courtesy Of publish
ing in our columns his speech on the Wisconsin
land bill. This is the speech which was so IA
vorably noticed by correspondent of the Rich
mond Vhig shortly after it was delivered. Mr..
Letcher has set his face resoutely against all bills
of the kind, and no doubt through his instrument
tally in great degree this bill and another Of
similar character have been defeated in the House
of Representatives.
So far we are highly gratified at Mr.. Letcher's
course. We hope 10 see all land bills defeated
except those which accord some measure of JUS
tice to the old States. Mr. Lecher, however,
continues TO hold to the Virginia Democratic plat
form, that Congress has no power TO appropriate
the public lands directly or indirectly to the pur-
pose of internal Improvement. Here, of course,
all schemes for aggrandzing the new States at
the expense of the whole country, but Wisconsin,
by Mr.. Lecher's showing, has already received
100000 acres of land, and Virginia nothing. 1t
is time for us to get little aid from this common
fund towards the construction of our railroads and
the support of our public charities. If the old
States were united upon the subject everything
desired could be accomplished at this time
Hereafter, when the West has increased in
strength, it will be too late. The friends of dis
tribution in the House of Representatives were
able to incorporate in The Minnesota bill an a
mendment to effect that object, but then the strict
oonstructionists flew the track and rejected the
entire bill.
While Virginia adheres tenaciOusly TO her pla:-
form, other Democratic States are getting rid OF
all scruples The Legislature of Mississippi has
just passed bill deciding to receive their share
of the public lands. a ryder declaring distribu-
ton unconstitutional was proposed, but voted
down. ind, moreover, Mr.. Letcher repeats a
rumor that the President and Cabinet were in IA
yor of the Wisconsin bill, which is in direct con-
fict with the Virginia doctrine.
