LOCAL MATTERS.

ST. PATRIcK's DAY-A NEW CHIEF MAR.
| SuAI. ELECTED.-The convention OF dele
gates from the Catholic societies OF Rich
mond to arrange for celebrating St. Patrick's g
day assembled last night at Cathedral Hall,
in response to the call of the president,
Mr.. r. e. English. Upon the call OF the
| roll it was ascertained that a full meeting
was present, only four delegates being ab-
sent. r.. f.......... ........, .r~a,,-
The president stated that he had uneX-
pectedly been compelled to reconvene the
body in consequence Of a letter which he
had received from MIR. John II. Higgins,
elected chief marshal at the meeting Of last
| Thursday, in which that gentleman stated
that he had reconsidered his acceptance OF
the position, and begged leave to decline
The honor, giving as his reasons that circum,
stances had arisen which would interfere,
80 far as he was concerned, with the sue
cess of the demonstration, and that the de-
mands upon his time were Of such char
aeter as to make it impossible for him to
devote the proper attention to it.
At the conclusion Of the reading OF the
letter Mr.. Higgins's resignation was ..ac-
cepted. -~~.--..~.-~, e. ..
Several gentlemen were then placed in
nomination, but it was evident upon the
first ballot that with but one exception the
nominations were intended as compliments,
inasmuch rs Mr.. William Rankin was
elected by an overwhelming majority.
Mr. Rankin's election was, on motion OF
one OF the gentlemen so eomplimented,
made unanimous; and upon being escorted
to the platform the newly y-elected chief mar
shall thanked the convention for the honor
they had seen fit to confer upon him, and
pledged :, himself. to- use, his best efforts to
make the celebration entirely successful. :
Several delegates spoke briefly but to the
point, urging concerted ard harmonious ac-
tion on the part OF all the societies in order
that, despite the depressing times and other
unfaverable circumstances which might
tend to affect the celebration, it might be
such one us to reflect credit upon the par
ticipants. The speakers were warmly ap-
plauded, and to judge from the enthusiasm
of the convention the demonstration Of the
coming 18th of March is an assured success.

way for a much longer period
AND not exhaust the subject;
for there are so many names
which are really beautiful. as
we'll as very precious from
association. and that is the
secret of our preference tor
particular names.
Names taken collectively may
be- divided into three distinct
classes. There are those
which are very dear, very
pleasant. and sweet to us, be-
cause borne by our beloved
ones; and scared, too, because
some voice which once res
pended to it's music is forever
silent. There are names
which orr disagreesble, and
harsh, and unpleasant, because
they represent something that
is unlovely to US. And there
are names of u negative sort ,
the utterance of which will
execute no special emotion,
for the simple reason that
none we have loved or hnted
have borne them.
After all, then, we love
names only as they are rep
| resentatives Of something we
love. or have loved and the
character is what gives lustre
and fragrance.

q card that does great credit to

denounces az false, the implied as
