st Patrick's Day.

To-day is the anniversary of st.
Patrick, the apostle or patron saint
of Ireland. He is supposed to have
been born in the southwest of Scot
land, between Dumbarton and Glas-
gov. The chief account possessed
of this prelate is from his own writ.
ings, the "Confession." His original
name was Maur or Sacutus, but
changed to Patricus by Pope Celes-
tine in 433, when he consecrated
him bishop, and sent him as a mis-
sionary to Ireland. st. Patrick is
reported to have founded many
schools and abbeys in Ireland, and
to have effected many wonderful
miracles, particularly that of extir-
pating all venomous animals from
the island. The end of his life was
devoted to acts of piety and benev-
olence; and he is supposed to have
died at an extreme old age.

The Sword of Robert Lei

auO O"Osu " nUU0i Luz.
Forth from it's scabbard pure and BRIGHT.
Flashed the sword of Lee!
Far in the front of the deadly fight,
High Ger the brave in the cause of Right,
Its stainless sheen like beacon LIGHT
Led US to victory.
Out of its scabbard where full long
1t slnmbered peacefully
housed from its rest by the battles song,
Shielding the feeble, shifting the strong,
Guarding the right, avenging the wrong
Cleaned the sword Of Lee
Forth from its scabbard high in air
Beneath Virginia's sky
And they who saw it cleaning there
And knew who bore it kelt to swear.
That where that sword led, they would dare
To follow and to die.
Out of its scabbard never hand
Waved sword from stain as free,
NOR purer sword led drawer band.
Nor Drawer bled for brighter land.
Nor brighter land had Cause so grand,
Nor cause a chief like Lee.
Forth from its scabbard how we prayed,
That sword might victor be-
And when our triumph was delayed,
And many heart grew sore afraid,
We still hoped on while cleaned the blade
Ut noble Robert Lee.
Forth from it's scabbard all in vain
Bright flashed the sword of Lee -
It's shrouded now in its sheath again,
1t sleeps the sleep Of our noble slain
Defeated yet without stain,
Proudly and peacefully.

Col. Al. Lane, of Macon, Ca, and
Mr.. Geo. 81. Hazlehurst, of Chatta-
noOga, Tenn, arrived in the city on
Wednesday evening, and spent the
greater portion of the day yesterday
at the Office of Major B. 81. Greene,
chief engineer of the New Orleans
Pacific railway. We learned that
the gentlemen composed the noted
firm of A. j. Lane s. Co., among the
most extensive railroad contractors
in the country, and visited our city
at the instance of Maj. Greene, who
wishes to gain their services in push
ing through the New Orleans Pacific
for the coming fall business. 1t is
we'll known to our citizens that the
unprecedented bad weather has
thrown the work on the road back
at least five months, has been very
detrimental to the contractors, and
it is to reinforce the latter that Mai.
Greene has invited the gentlemen
named to the city. Messrs. Lane &
Co., have large and thoroughly or
ganized railroad force which they
will Immediately place upon the
road, and assist in pushing the work
forward, so as to have the road in
running order by the latter part of
August. By the new arrangements
made, a portion of the rails will now
come into New Orleans and be ship.

will be commenced both ways, that

have said before, by the terrible bad
weather we have had and to expe-

ing the misfortunes himself and con-
tractors have had to contend with
from the start. The Major is a
thorough-going and pushing gentle
man, and seems to know no such
word as fail. We congratulate him
upon his indomitable energy and
pluck.

One of the great advantages in
farming in Louisiana is the short
and open winters, giving the farmer
the opportunity of working nearly
every day in the year, and not hi.
bernating for five or six months of
every year as the Northern farmer is
compelled to do. The advantage of
mild, open, short winters is matter
of the greatest Importance to the
immigrant. It saves him from hir-
ing labor, giving him a much longer
season for doing his work. It
saves him great expense in
carrying his stock over winter. 1t
enables him, with his own labor, to
keep his fencing in better repair, and
his lands in better culture than if he
were restricted to . much shorter
period for all kinds of work. But
there Is another reason why Louisi.
ana is q favorite State for the farmer
immigrant. It is because she is SO
conveniently located; because she
affords such excellent facilities for
the cheap transportation of her pro-
ducts to market. A large share of
the product ia not consumed in
transporting it to New Orleans-the
starting place for an Eastern or for.
eign market. In some States this is
. most serious burden and robs
farming Of most Of its profits. The
great Mississippi and the Red and
Ouachita rivers will always afford a
competing channel for our com.
merce, and the very lowest rates to
the East or to Europe can be OBJ
tanned In consequence. The State
is never afflicted by the terrible
drouths, which destroy vegetation
and leave man and beast in q fam.
ishing condition, as is the case in
some States. With the Mississippi,
Red, Ouachita and many other riv.
ers, and their tributaries, within and
the Gulf upon her borders, there is
generally plenty Of moisture to at
tract showers, and such . thing as
a general failure of crops has never
been known in Louisiana.

With this number we commence
the Twentieth Volume of this paper.
Nineteen years is quite long time
for country paper to continue 10
existence in this State, and that too
under the same editorial control and
proprietorship, yet this is a fact with
the Bossier Banner. We have had
many things to contend against in
that long period-war, radical rule,
financial revulsions, &c.,-but we
kept right along, whether the skies
were lowering or bright, never miss
ing an housekeeping its suspen-
sion during the late war. Never
have we begun volume when the
prospects were 80 flattering for a
realization of the bright hopes with
which We set out on our journalistic
career on the morning of the End of
July, 1859. It is exceeding crafty.
ing to rs to be able to make this
statement. Our patrons are assured
that their favors are appreciated.
Since 1861 Louisiana has seen
many dark days, but the Banner has
always tried to point out the silver
lining to the clouds, and now that
the State that it loves is emerging
into a season Of peace and prosperi-
ty, flatters itself that in its measure
and by its chosen methods it has in
some degree assisted in attaining
this wished for result.
It has at times been no fun in
running this Democratic journal
during the years of Radical pro.
scription. Its proprietor has seen
days when he could almost have
wished himself in other business
Unlike some other papers it never
sought to achieve popularity for the
hour BY deception and panderiug to
passion and prejudice, or to gain
favor BY fawning and flattery.
The Banner will continue in the
path marked out for it. As it has
been in the past 30 will it be in the
future "only more so.n In conclu-
sion, friends, may you live long and
prosper, as we expect to do ourself.

ducts of the United States, that go
to make up much of our foreign ex-
ports, it is after all our manufac-
lures that yield far the largest profit
to the people Of country, since the
great staples, such as grain, pork,
beef, butter and cotton, cost about
as much to produce as they bring in
the market Of the world. A pound
of cotton manufactured into cloth,
or pound of iron into fine cutlery,
watch springs or other articles or
mechanisms, represents to a far
larger degree the diverse labors of
those who have been employed in
producing them, and afford profit to
much larger number of people
than bushel Of wheat, a bale of
cotton, or a pound of gold or silver
dug from the bowels of the GARTH
1t was one of Horace Greeley's IA
vorite maxims that country should
consume all its grain at home and
sell all its wool and cotton, either
spun into yarnor woven into fabrics.
That the theory was abstractly
true seems perfectly certain by the
result of the experiments in cotton
weaving now in such full tide of
success in South Carolina and Geor
gia where the profits are reported to
be nearly double the best results of
the Lowell and Manchester mills in
New England. If we recollect right
the South Carolina cotton mills
claim to start with saving of SS
per bale on their matter alone of
freights from the cotton fields to the
New England mills. They also
claim to be able to secure labor at
more reasonable rates, and food to
feed their workmen cheaper than in
the East. Be that as it may, it is
logically reasonable to affirm that it
is more profitable to a cotton State
to work up its raw material at homs
and eujoy both the profit; - any, Of
raising the staple and manufacturing
it into goods, since the freight is no
more on bale Of cloth than on one
OF raw cotton of like weight, while
the per cent. the freight bears to the
value of the two articles is far lower
on the manufactured than on the un-
manufactured. We therefore hail
with pleasure the rapid increase of
spindles in the South and the multi.
plication of cotton seed oil mills that
is adding yet more largely to the
profit of cotton growing in the
Southern States. Moreover, with
diversity of labor introduced here
we will be far more self:sustaining
and independent than now or here
tofore. If, however, any of the
Southern States find that it is bet
ter for them to raise cotton and ex.
change it for meats and grain she
can do so of course, but she had far
better send a bale of cotton drill or
muslin to Illinois in payment for her
meats or grain than the crude cot
ton fibre, and if she chooses to print
as we'll as weave her cotton cloth
she adds another branch of indus.
try, and consequently another profit,
to her artisans. The South is
awakening to this matter, and we
hope will act upon it with the intel
lect it possesses.
