living and resides in New London, Conn.,
He is now seventy-6ve years of age, fine
specimen of an old a.fashioned ship master

oned by Brstsh man. of war, and, on being
released. he determined afterward to have
his credentials of citizenship always with him

the date and place of his birth, and figure
of hand pointing to the American flag
These credentials are indelible, and will re
main until his strong arm shall mouder into

Gen. Grant has sent to the President
the names of Generals Sheridan, SickleS,
Schofeld, Thomas and Mel Dwell, as
Che five Commanders Of tho five Ds.rictl
into which the South has been divided
by the new Reconstruction law. Ii is
not known yet whethert he President
viii approve these selections.
Per CONTRA tits stated that the story
so generally circulated that Gen. Grant
has recommended officers for district
commanders in the South under the
Reconstruction law, is wholly unfound-
ed. These commanders are to be ap-
pointed by the President He has not
yet asked Gen. Grants advice, and the
General is the last man who would force
his opinion in such matters upon the
Executive. The President and his cab
met have considered the question ofap-
pointments, and will doubtless ask the
views of Gen. Grant before reaching a
final decision. When this is done, Gen.
Sickles cannot however, be recon-
mended as one of the FIVE commanders,
for his rank in the Regular Army is
only that of Colonel, and they must all
be at least Brigadiers. We give both
reports, any how, for what they are
worth.

Sc. Patrick's Day.

Next Sunday, March 18th, is St. Patrick s
Day. We append the following sketch Of
Ireland patron saint from the new Ameri-
can CycIeposdid:
Patrick { (Patricus) Saint, the patron saint
of Ireland, born, according to most autbori-
ties, near the site Of Fitzpatrick, at the
mouth of the Clyde, in Scotland, in 372.
died at Down Ulster, probably in 464. At
the sge Of l6 he was carried captive to Ire
land by band Of maraudsrs, but made his
escape after SIX months and reached Scot
land. Carried off a second time, and again
escaping. he resolved TO become mission
ary to the Irish, was ordained in Scotland,
and after long preparation was consecrated
bishop. Having tpreviously, according To
some accounts, VISITED Gaul, aud perhaps
Italy, he passed 10 his chosen field of labor,
about 432, and preached the gospel with such
extrasrdinary effect that, although not abb
soluiely the first to introduce christianity in
to that country, he has received the credit
of its general conversion. He baptised the
kings Of Dublin and Munster, and the seven
sons Of the king of Connaught with The
greater part of their subjects, and before his
death had converted almost all the whole is
land to the faith. St. Brenard testiles that
he fixed his Metropolitan See at Armagh, and
it appears that he appointed ether bishops
with whom he held councils to settle th q
discipline of the Church which he had plan
ted. In his old age he wrote his Confess
ion," the authenticity of which however, is
doubted. 1t may be found in Sir James
Wards edition Of the words of st. Patrick,
(S vo, London, 1861 The Roman Catholic
Church keeps his festival on March 18th. A
popular legend ascribes to him the banish-
ment of all venomous creatures from the is
land, by means of his cresier, or staff, which
Ralph Rigden, in his "POlychronicon,
mentions as being kept with great venera-
tiou in Dublin in 1860.

Of 5000 majority, an entire Union dele

The Spring Election .

The Spring election in this State, for
town and city officers, takes place on
the first Monday, being the LIST day oi
April We trust the Union men of this
county are wide awake aad moving in
the matter. The copperheads are un-
usually active, wherever they have the
slightest chance of success; and it is to
befeared that they may carry the cleo
ton in localities where there is really a
majority against them, simply through
the supineness of Union men. A
great many very good men in our pnrty,
who make it point to interest them
selves in State and National politics, do
not seem to regard local elections as
important but let them go by default.
A little reflection should convince them
that this is fraught with danger. Such
policy persisted in would in. time
weaken the strength of the party and
finally render it powerless to accom-
plish any good, no matter now large
the issue. We believe in that policy
which. organizes as thoroughly for a
township election as for Presidential
campaign; and would therefore urge
upon the Union men in every township
to neglect no measure, however trifing
it may appear, which viii promote their
success at the spring election. A COM
plete canvass by school districts and
wards is essential. 1t requires but lit
tie time, and when it is accomplished
you know. precisely what work has to
be done to insure success. Experience
has demonstrated that it is the best
plan in nominating candidates for local
Offices, to steer clear of compromises
and coalitions with the opposition--to
refuse all offers to trade and dicker--
and to resolutely denouuce all the cant
about 'not making it party issue"
Wherever Republicans enter into such
arrangements with the Democrats, they
invariably lose strength and gain moth
ing. The better way, it seems to us,
everywhere and always is to go into an
election as Union-Republican organ
ization, and eight it out on that line" "
if IT takes ten years.
The Republicans in Fremont have
organized Club and will hold two
meetings week until election. With
proper effort we can carry the city and
that effort will be made, without a
doubt. We again urge upon the Union
men of the county to effect an early
and thorough organization.

The reports from Europe by the cable
have been more than usually interest
ing for the past week. The Fenian agi-
tation in Ireland has been resumed and
actual hostilities have taken place. A
force, admitted by the Government to
number from one to four thousand, had
fuN possession of the district adjoining
both Dublin and Cork, having made
simultaneous attacks upon police and
military stations, tearing up railways,
obstructing roads, and cutting off tele-
graphic communications. 1t also ap-
pears that they were under fair disci-
pline, committing no outrages upon pri-
vate individuals. Fenians are swarm
ing IN the mountains and other natural
strongholds, aud command tie situation
IN the four counties of Cork; Waterford,
Tipperary and Limerick, not yet taken
either of these principal towns. The
movement thus far seems to be mere
guerrilla warfare, in which the masses
ofthe eeasantry neither take arms with
1he insurgents, nor offer any aid to the
Government against thsm.-The re,
organization of the subordinate posts in
the Derby ministry has been completed
The funeral of "Artemus Ward" took
place on the 9th, his remains being at
tended to the grave, in Censal Green
Cemetry, by large concourse of friends

How TO Take Care ola Piano.

We copy the following plaiE and simple
directions for the proper care Of pianos from
cotemporary: at should be remembered
that the piano forte is susceptible TO the
change of temperature and when tuned in
one temperature will be out OF tubS in
another. Good and well made piano fortes
will stand in tune if they are tuned at proper
periods. Many people, as they wish to avoid
expense will let their Instruments remain
long out Of tune, which is a great detriment
to Them, IS they are less likely TO stand well
after having been SO left. Ne will oHer a
few hints in reference to the matter. a
piano forte ought Justly to be tuned twice
year, at least. First when YOU commence
with q Ere in the room; second. when the
fire is discontinued. by folioEiHg this
course you have the best guarantee that The
instrument will remain in tune for the lorg.
est period Of time. Again, the instrument
should not be suffered to remain below con-
CERT pitch; if il is for years tuned below, it
will hever after stand up 10 the pitch with
cut CREST deal of labor, il, indeed, il ever
stand at all. Many otherwise beautiful in
struments are nearly or quite ruined for want
of proper attention to these simple facts
Yet il will never answer for professional

the people wi ii suspect him impediately Of
selfish motives and say that he is planning
for his own advantage. Owners Of piano:
fortes who ere not acquainted with the Ds-
ture OF the instrument ought TO bear these
facts 10 mind, when, by yearly outlay Of a
