IRELAND's ANNIvERsARY.-The celebration
of Saint Patrick's day on Wednesday last,
passed off to the satisfaction of those who took
part in the festivities. The procession formed
at the appointed hour, and proceeded to Saint
Patrick's church, where High Mass was cele-
brated, and glowing tribute paid to the life of
the departed Saint by Father McNaboe after
which the procession was reformed and re-
turned to Turn Verein Hall. Hugh Farley
Esq. of Columbia there delivered very elo-
quent and feeling Grafton, which was listen
ed to with satisfaction creating great enthusi-
asm among his hearers.
The day was most unpropitious, it was
raining nearly the whole time, which deferred
large numbers living away from the city from
coming to take part in the celebraton-al-
though the number attending was small the
ball in the evening was very agreeable one,
the company present enjoyed themselves so
we'll that nearly oil remained until daylight
the next morning. During the day and even
ing the best of order and propriety was
every thing connected with the
celebration passed off in q very creditable
manner.

THE SENATE AIMING AT SUPREME POWER
The New York Herald sees, in the continued
refusal of the Senate to repeal the Tenure-of-
Office Act. an intention to monopolize the
patronage of the Government: and convert
itself into Star-chamber tyranny. 1t says:
The Tenure-ot-Ofice law. so promptly re-
pealed on the part of the House by the pas
sage OF Buffers repeal bill, " sticks" in the
Senate. Why? Because Of the power which
this Tepure-of-O Office law gives the Senate over
the President and his removals from office.
Before the enactment Of this law, which was
passed to head off Andy johnson, the consent
of the Senate was only required on Executive
appointments. The President could remove
Tom. Dick or Harry, aud that was the end of
the party removed. subject. however, to q
restoration by the Presidents reconsideration
of the case. But under this new law the
President must submit, not only his appoint
ments, but his removals and bis reasons, to
the Senate, and if the reasons given for re-
movsl be voted insufficient, the removed
officer is restored, as in the case of Stanton as
Secretary of War. Thus, under this law,
Vice-President Colfax, as President of the
Senate, may WELD power in the matter of
Executive removals ard appointments greater
than the power of the President himself
Under this condition Of things, the House of
Representatives becomes u mere tidewaiter to
the Senate.

Cabinet Complete

T.. Il. Washburn has retired from the Cab
met and has been succeeded by Hamilton
Fish Of New York Mr.. Fish has had ex-
perience having occupied several high posi-
tions-as member of Congress. United States
Senator and Governor Of New York. 0flate
years he has spent much Of his time in for
eign countries. He is undoubtedly better
qualified than Mr.. Washburn for the State
Department.
George S. Boutwell, of Massachusetts, is
now Secretary Of the Treasury in place of A. T..
Stewart who could not hold the place assign
ed him, in consequence Of being engaged in
active trade. Mr.. Boutwell, was originally a
merchant. then lawyer, has been Governor
Of Massachu setts two terms. and WAS the first
Commissioner Of Internal Revenue and for
the last few years member of Congress. He
is radical and used bis best efforts to i'm
peach Andrew johnson.
John S. Rawlings the new Secretary OF
War, in place of General Schoheid was
Grants Chief Of staff. Before the breaking
out Of the late war he followed the legal pro-
fession. lie was an Elector on the Douglass
ticket in 1860 in Illinois, but has never filled
political Office. The relations existing be-
tween him and the President, for the last few
years have been of an intimate and friendly
character to which it is conceded be is indebt-
ed for this appointment.

SPRING.-After an unusual period of dry
and pleasant weather of an entire months
duration we have been visited with much
needed rains. 1t is rare for this section to
enjoy such delightful genial and warm days
as we have bad during the month of March.
Vegetation was beginning to require mois-
ture, and would soon have suffered but for
the timely showers of the past week, which
bled those of April more than March,
The farmers elongated faces have shortened,
and now are covered with smiles. Spring

subject to any prior right the miner may have.
requiring such mining right tc be proved up
and substantiated within ressonab BILE time,
and where no mining right exists at the time
OF preemption, the settler to have all the
minerals and metals contained in the claim.
II such laws should be adopted. it would en-
able the settler to get what the farmers Of
this region have never had, q good title.
Then with feeling of safety they would inn
prove and beautify their farms, with the sat
isfaction of knowing that they were investing
their labor and money in something that
possessed an intrinsic value. They would
willingly pay their taxes, freely sid projects
for opening means of communication to en-
able them to put their produce in market.
All this can be done aud not interfere with
the miners interest, be could be at work also
adding the benefit of his labor to the CON-
munity We must rely upon the soil, not on
the mines Of precious metals for future pros
perity. There are those now living who will
see the mineral section as prosperous and
permanent as any other portion of the State,
which will be when the spirit and ideas Of
the men of forty-nine have passed away.

The PAcIFIc Mutual LIFE INSURANCE Con-
PANY.-We would call the attention of our
readers to the advertisement of this Compa
ny. Although year has not elapsed since
commencing business it has already met
with wonderful success issuing policies for
the first eight months amounting to nearly
two millions of dollars. They offer equal in
ducements with any of the first class eastern
companies, and claim that it is more advan-
tageous for persons to insure in California
company than with an eastern company, for
the reason that the rates of interest are much
greater here than in the East. The benefit
derived by the insured depends upon the ac-
tual mortality and rates of Interest obtained,
it cannot be doubted that the advantage is
with them-Besides by paying insurance to a
California company the money remains in
the State giving the benefit of its investment
to our people. Another advantage over cas-
tern companies is that all policies issued by
the Pacific Mutual Life Company are exempt
from execution where the premium paid does
not exceed five hundred dollars annually.
The Directors and cficers of this company
are we'll known as men of integrity and good
business qualifications, and are entitled to
the confidence of our people. Being based
on a solid foundation with superior advanta-
ges, no better company can be found by those
desiring life insurance.
