ST. PArR1cK's DAY-NoRrH and SOUTH.
PHILADELPHIA.

PHILADELPHIA.
The Catholic Standard estimates the number
of men in the procession on the 18TH at 3 ,0OC
and concludes it's account as follows:
Never before in the history of Catholicity
in this city, was such sight witnessed as was
seen on this day. Thousands on thousands of
strong, healthy and energetic men, all an
honor rejecting on the Church, and SO many
pledged to be temperate, sober men, and the
lore good citizens. 1t was o demonstration
that showed not only ho,o strong the Catholics
of Philadelphia are, but also proved to Protes
what good and useful citizens they are, and
how valuable an element in tho body polite
Did Mr.. Froude say that Irishmen, that Cath
olics, could not be useful citizensH He did
say so, but the Catholic Societies of Phiadel-
phia, to their eternal honor be it spoken have
demonstrated its falsity by showing their
thousands pledged to temperance bencvolence
forethought and intelligence.
CHICAGO.
In Chicago, Bishop Foley celebrated Ponti-
fical High Mass at st. Patrick's Church, after
which the various Benevolent and Total Alb
stinence Societies, accompanied by Societies
of other nationalities, prominent among which
were the Poles, numbering 800 men, paraded
the streets. About 6,0O0 men were in the pro-
cession.
ST. LOUIS.
Iwenty-one guns were fred at half-past one
o'clock when the immense procession COM
menced its march. st. Louis has heretofore
been pre-eminently the city where grand pro-
cessions could be gotten mp, and on this Occa-
sion she seemed to have fairly eclipsed herself
10000 is the number Of men estimated to have
been in the procession, Of which John J. FitZ-

REPUBLICAN PURITY-The London T,bJ., ~
the 1st inst, discourses as follows on this AMI
Ject: Tho revelations of fraud and corrupt;or
! IN both branches of the American Cameras.
VIII surprise no one who has apy acouainta,.n
with tho class of politicians in tho IT,;taS
States. There in that country man If .n
unsullied character as could be found in ,,,r
Kingdom of Europe, but their yery yir.ucc
Danish them iuexorably from public life. To
know how to bride, and how to deserve n 1,r;tr
is an almost essential qualification for tho
popular vote, especially since the centlemes.
OF the South were suppressed by tho civil wsr,
and their legitimate influence transferred b,y
Radical legislation to ignorant negroes ana
debased carpet-baggers. Tie completely of tho
Vice President of the United States in tho
shameful transactions recently. disclosed il M
characteristic of democratic society. aS hin

tion, after his exposure, are of Protestant pietr
lie was received, we are told by the deyort
members Of the association =ith moro tbsr
customary applause, though oven o strict partr~
vote could only save him from impeachment is
the Senate by narrow majority of t1,res
The fact occasions us no surprise. Have va
not lately been Informed that the Goyernme,e
OF the United States, with the entire approval
OF its legislative body, proposes to pay into the
national treasury from one third to one-hulf Of
the sum awarded by tho Geneva tribunal
though, after the indirect claims were SiropDa5'
1t was claimed by tho same Government solsIy
as compensation for private interests. and
was therefore either dishonesty claimed, or is
now dishonesty applied When the executive,
of great nation can deliberately lend itself
to acts which in the "effete menarchiesD Of the
Old World would be considered disreputable-
1t is hardly possible that Mr. Colfax, Mr. AmeG-
MIR. Brooks, or any other American notabilitv.
will forfeit tho esteem Of his fellow citizenx,
or lose such social eminence as he is capable
OF attaining, by reason of tnrpitudes which
are far more likely to excite an envious admi-
ration. If in the United States the best coo
purest mon, who blush for acts which tleE .
cannot prevent, since they have no moro Share
than foreigners in the Government of their
country, are found only in private life, tho
recent disclosures sufficiently explain fheic
ostTacisin. When next our rulers hare IN ne
gotiate treaty with the politicians of WsSt,-
ington, we hope they will take warning by tbe
past, and BIO quite sure that to deal with Thea
gentlemen as if they were European stateS-
men is to court REPETITION Of the same treat
msnt which We have already experienced, aaI
which is as little profitable to our dignity A
to our finances"

is on the point Of completion that viii

Board Of Directors intend to issue in

out will pay the interest on the bonds
and 2 q cent, dividend to the stockhold-
ers for the first five years, 3 b cent for

Board, by the excess of dividends,t TO re-

MISCELLANEOUS.
The chambermaid's room entire, stair,
way, floor, windows and everything else,
was carried away by the ice from the
wreck OF the r. p. Walt this morning.
Nothing now remains q the upper works
but the she'll and outside frame work Of
the cabin and the wheelhouse on the
starboard side.
The Park Pointer came down yester-
day with two barges Of wood.
The Little Alps and her barge get 1000
bales of cotton for New Orleans, and
will drop down 10 tbe landing to get few
bales Of compressed cotton to-day, but
where she is going or what she is going to
do with all that cotton is something no
fellah can find out
The Yaeger has laid up three miles
above Mount Vernon, in the Ohio.
In the absence Of other occupation,
some evil-minded genius thought he
would cause the reporters of the St.
Louis press each to wear out pair of
boots, and thereby cause an advance in
the leather market, the other day, by
starting a rumor that the Henry Ames
had sunk above here with all her cargo.
The reporters, however, did not seem
inclined to bull the leather market, so
each sent telegram here, getting a re-
ply in time for their papers next morn
ing. The Ames has as one item of her
cargo $4,000 worth of coffee, con-
signed to Glasgow & Bro, St. Louis.
The Belle Lee came up at noon with
22S bales of cotton and 300 tons of
other freight.
The A. J. White came up this morn
lug in the wake" Of the Belle Lee,
and is at the wharf boat putting out l2l
bales of cotton and 1876 sacks of seed.
The ice was running quite heavy at
noon.
Wednesdays St. Louis Republican
says, regarding the boats aground below
there
The Richmond has spared herself to
the channel, where there is FIVE and a
half feet water, and has barge along
side on which she is tightening, and is
trying to reach the bank this side to lay
up and wait the weather to moderate and
river to rise. The Alice remains in the
same position, with ice piled up high on
her side The W. j. Lewiseame up from
her yesterday with her stock, and will
return to her this morning. From last
accounts there is no change in the posi-
ton of the Great Republic.
