David Logan, of Portland. the Republican

years, is a lawyer of good ability. good
stump speaker and popular with those known
as the " bhovs." He has now beea three

As soon as the nomination was announced
many of the leading Republicans left the hall
in disgust, and, up to the day of election,
took no part or interest in Logan, nor did
they vote. Several causes led to this course
First. Logan's habits for many years past !;
second. his abusive tongue, which made him
many enemies; third. his open hostility to
the late Col. E. D. Baker, and his rejoicing
at the news of his death, struck a deep de-

st. Patrick's Day.

Day after tomorrow recurs the festival
SO dear to large class of our citizens-"St.
Patrick's Day" 1t is the anniversary of
faith, the memory of a sacred past, the feast
of the heart for the freshman every where.
Day after tomorrow, all over the world, in
the four quarters of the globe, under every
flag, there will be Il turning of million ewes
in one direction, of million hearts to one
Mecca-the green Isle of the Sea. There
| will be a display of unaffected, unbought,
undying loyalty, which needs no reconstruc-
ton and knows no parallel. 1t will be the
tribute of love to worth.
But we must not suppose that this occa-
sion is a mere national demonstration, that
st. Patrick's name is only used as a watch
word, while his memory is almost lost in
the dim light of mythical antiquity. No!
the presence of his influence is as actual.
the devotion to his honor as vivid, as though
he had belonged to the present generation.
ST Patrick first and then Ireland
The devotion of his people to this great
apostle is remarkable for its persistence and
filia1 character. His relations with his flock
were not only very extended in duration,
but peculiar in kind. st. Patrick was not
only priest but patriot, not only saint but
law giver; he was at the same time a per
feet Christian and model citizen, a spir-
itual guide and temporal benefactor. He
was second Moses. among his people
Faith chronicles him as a holy bishop, his
tory claims him as great man.
1t is said that his miraculous powers have
blessed the land of his love with exemption
from certain dangers known in every other
country, and it is thought his prayers OBJ
tanned for his people the gift of perpetual
fidelity to the faith-that their land should.
through all time, be the island of saints
Certain it is, that the Irish people have
hitherto exhibited a tenacity of faith nothing
short of miraculous in its persistence under
the circumstances, and it may be remarked
that, whether originally, or through the
prayers of st. Patrick, they have been en-
dowed with natural characteristics eminent
1y calculated to sustain them under perse-
cution.

in 1880, and took her vows in New Orleans in
1852. The sweetness and amenity of her char

OF her religious convictions, endeared her to
the Sisters who were favored with her compan-
lonship After having endured with exemplary
patience the fortunes of a lingering malady,
surrounded with all the aids which the Church
affords her children, at the final decisive mo-
ment, she died without effort, in calmness and
peace, with the sweet, enduring confidence of
a reunion forever with Him whom she had
faithfully served, end to whom she had conse-

his doctrine. is altogether inexpugnable be-
hind his Bible, with his right of private inter-.
probation. You cannot convince him of err
rosynay, You have not the right of convin-
cling him, no, not even the right of attacking
him, since, in holding what you called his
errors he is enlightened by the Spirit of
truth, who, with an inspiration always
equally confOrmable to truth, enables men
to hold the most conflicting and contradic-
tory doctrines. And it is plain inconsis-
tency in Pro testant sects to attack and con-
denim each other as they do, or to attack
Catholics, since Catholics, as we'll as Pro-
testants of any denomination enjoy an equal
right to private Interpretation, and are
equally free to make use of it.
We could show many other inconvenien-
ces, absurdities, and impossibilities in the
Protestant system of private Interpretation
but what we have said is sufficient to prove
good sense, contrary to the social nature |
of man, to the providential action of God
upon man, to the very notion of religion, |
and to the plainest words of the Scripture |
itself; that it paves the way to the most |
foolish fancies and criminal imaginations, |
20 profane, impious, blasphemous interpre-
-atiOns; that it sanctions beforehand all |
errors, and precludes all means of correcting
hem.
Therefore, the Protestant system of pri-
rate Interpretation is plainly wrong the
principle on which it is based is manifestly
alse; all the consequences derived from
hat false principle are necessarily untrue,
md consequently the whole religious fabric
quilt upon that principle has no real foun-
lation, and cannot stand the test of a seri-
'us and conscientious inquiry.

FEAST OF ST.. JosErH.-This feast is ordina-
rlly kept with great piety by our Catholic pop
nlation, and we think the approaching festival
will be celebrated with ut least equal feryor
as any that has preceded it. In this connection
it may not be amiss to alludc to an error pre-
vailinS among some Catholics, who are ill
informed0-lt7~is, that St Joseph's day claims
exemption from being kept the other days of
Lent-that a special relaxation is accorded
There is no foundation for such method of

in growth, and an excessive energy OF en-
!thasiasm verges upon'it tho iextravagant.A -
1.-THE Irish people have their wen: known
fanlfs, thoroughly ventilated and generally
Exaggerated, but at any rate they are, open,
not secret, faults. They arise from an ex-
i'cess which can be tempered, not from o de-
lfciency which can never he supplied--from
an impulse originally generous, not from the
1 depravity Of deliberate malice. =. - -
This energetic vitality of the race gives
it the elements OF tenacity, progress, and
domination Physically, they are able to
endure any hardship, undergo any labor,
and encounter any climate. Morally, no
amount Of oppression, wrong, or even ridi!
crle can crush them. Their vitality takes
the form of courage, and the Irish soldier
needs no eulogist; it crops out in the spirit
of adventure, and on-b board the foremost
| ship Of an Arctic exploration you viii find
| an Hishman at the masthead, trying to get
the first glimpse of the North pole In en-
terprise they are with the foremost, ard
| take bold lead in colossal schemes of COM
merce and improvement.
The restless energy of their character
must take the shape of action, and they
naturally become the pioneers of civiliza-
ton. They construct railroads, dig canals,
and build cities. Not afraid to labor. they
are competent to devise, and prosperity fol-
their faith is the chief object of their en-
thusiasm and they become missionary race
in their wanderings. Wherever they go,
the church, the schoolhouse, and the con-
vent spring up directly, endowed with the
same purity and strength Of piety in every
land and under every climate.
Thus nations are organized by the energy
America is closely allied with Erin, and Aus
tralia is an enlarged counterpart of Ireland.
What strange fatality, that while the
mother sends forth her children with the
boon of civilization in their hand to found
great empires in the new worlds, she should
remain SO humbled and so scourged herself!
England, cold and naughty in her pride,
frenzied in her fanaticsm, has thought to
crush out the people of ST. Patrick from
their island, OF his faith from their hearts.
But in the providence Of God this blird zeal
has been but the means of planting their
colonies on every shore, and of scattering
the seeds of his faith among every people,
This persecution has been like the tempest,
which rudely tears the germ from its parent
stem to be scattered abroad and fructify the |
earth.
Noble destiny of a chosen people! Let
them but be true to their love of st. Patrick,
and they will make him, in his influence, the
apostle of a far vaster field than he evangel-
lied by his works. Let them be true to |
their own hearts, and wherever the sham
rock shall be worn the Holy Trinity will be +
adored in truth.

CHURCH OF ST. VINCENT DE PAUI.-The in
defatigable Father Foltier, whose zeal in every
good work is known to all our readers, proposes
to give concert on st. Joseph,s day, 18th inst,
at the above church, Third Distrit, in behalf
OF his new church. The programme, which will
be found in another column and the gentleman
under whose supervision the entertainment is
to be given, is in itself sufficient to command a
large attendance; but the superadded motive
that prompts the affair should make success
certain. Perfect arrangements have been made
to accommodate passengers, by prior under
standing with the railroad company.

MISSION AT GRErNA.-We are glad to state
that the mission given by the Rev. Fathers
Giessen and Translator, in the st. Joseph's
Church, Gretna, was very successful. About
six hundred persons approached the Holy Sa-
craments, of whom several had neglected their
duties for years. To-day, the same Rev. Fathers
will open mission at Baton Rouge. We wish
them God-speed in this new field of their labors.
