THE OBSERVANCE or ST. PATRICK's DAY.
While there was no remarkable demonstra-
ton on the part OF our Irish citizens yes
terday in celebrating the anniversary Of
their patron saint, The day was ushered in
with inclemcnt weather, that seems always
the accompaniment OF the 1Itp Of March In
this latitude. And yet the dismal day, with
its cold drilling rain, was agreeable as
compared with the typical 81. Palrick's,
which usually furnishes cold and high
winds driving clouds OF binding dust.
There was no general parade OF Irish cit
liens, though number OF societies met in
the morning at Cathedral Hall and marched
10 the Cathedral, where high mass was ccle-
bracd and IN eloquent and graceful Ord
tion delivered by Right Rev. J. J. Keanc.
The Bishop paid a beautiful tribute TO the
great s.. Patrick, comparing hi forty days
of fasting and prayer on the prominence
which bears the Saints name with the Sl-
viour on the Mount of Olives. lie dwCIt
at length upon the religion Of Ireland,
which has in all time animated her noble
sons. and explained the great love and reye-
ence which lri>hmen had ever exhibited
for the dear Mother Mary and the beloved
disciple John. Erin, be said. had ever, as
Mary did, wept at the foot Of the cross, and
they loved John for lis fidelity to the cruci-
fed saviour. As much as he loved his
mothcrand, the speaker said, in concu-
ding, he had rather see Ireland ever weep
ing in sorrow aud in want at the foot OF the
cross than raised TO the highest pinnacle OF
earthly grandeur by bartering her honor, as
many nations had done, to the mammon Of
unrigbteOusne>s.
A supper was given last evening at Snel.
lipg's by the st. Patrick's Society OF Rich
mond. at which the bounteou>ness Of the
banquet was fairly eclipsed by the parking
fJw Of Celtic wit.

a plea for the Poor.

The ladies OF the City Mission ieei they
would be doing an act OF great ini nstice TO
the citizens OF Richmond, as well as the
moor Of the city who are under their care, II
they failed to make known the emptiness OF
their treasury and inability to carry on
their work through the month OF ApIil
without further help. The City Mission
has been supported since the lst OF De-
eember entirely by voluntary contrl'
buttons, amounting to about $3.50. WIN
this sum it is almost miraculous wDat
has been done. The soup-kettles have
been kepe at work day aud night by the
faithful matron, who receives for her SER
vices Sl5 ger month; and these kettles have
furnished $4,000 quarts OF soup, and with
every quart OF soup two pones OF bread have
been given, numbering in all 10000 pounds.
In addition TO this provision for the poor
who are in good health, 1000 railons OF gro-
ceries have been issued to the sick, and, as
far as it was practicable, the old and sick
have been supplied with red flannel and bed
quilts. The great number OF sick among
the poor at this time Qa some instances

TIE YORKTOWN CENTENNIAL. The York
town Centennial Association, which has re-
Gently been incorporated under the laws OF
Virginia, and which was organized to pro-
mote and secare the proper celebration OF
the one-hundredth anniversary Of the sur
Irender Of Cornwalis at Yorktown, have
established headquarters at the Exchange
Hotel, in this city. On Thursday night
next the Association will formally open
their rooms and fling to the breeze the
French and American flags. The First
Virginia regiment will turn out in honor Of
the occasion, and there will also be inter-
esiing addresses delivered by Governor
HOLIDAY, Hon. \. NJ. Kelley, and others.
Mr. Wagner recently offered the follow
ing resolution in The Board of Aldermen.
1t has not before been published
Whereas the celebration OF the centennial
anniversary OF the battle OF Yorktown
promises to be an event in grandeur and
dignity commensurate with the Importance
OF the day it is proposed to celebrate, and
as our now historic city and capital OF the
State on that occasion will no doubt be
visited by thousands from far and near, and
with the failure OF our State Legislature to
make any provision whatever nor any pos
siblity for making any during the time still
remaining, 1t then becomes us, as patriotic
and public.sprted citizens, to adopt such
means and take such timely steps as Will
lead TO united and systematic action 10 en-
able our city on this occasion to "bd the
welcome" and act the representative
be it, therefore,
ReSotred the Common Council concur
ring). That his Honor the Mayor be re-
quested at some early day to call public
meeting OF our citizens with view OF ma
turing and adopting such preliminary steps
as will lead to a successful accomplishment
OF the purpose herein expressed.

TIAE-HONORED TITLE.-SOme time since
the fact was mentioned in these columns OF
piece Of property which had remained in
the same family, descending from father TO
son, for period OF more than 300 years !;
it being held continuously during that time,
and is still held, in the same name in which
the original grant was made.
We have recently heard Of a case similar
in most respects, only that the present
owner holds by an inheritance which has
come from the female branch of the family.
1t is the farm called Springfield" in Han
over county. owned by Mr.. George Wait.
Records tracing it back TO the grant made
by james the H., Of England, TO John Aus
tin reveal the fact that It has remained in
some descendant Of his family 10 the pres
ent day. We were recently shown plat Of
a survey OF it made by Benjamin Bites, sur.
veyor OF Hlnover county in 1900, which is
still in good preservation. Mr.. Bates was
the father of Mr.. Micajah Bates, for many
years surveyor OF this city. This farm is
on the Chickahominy about eight miles
from Richmond, near Cold Harbor, and j.
one Of the most valuable in that section OF
the State, and Is only a small portion OF the
original grant. On lis soil was fought the
! battle of Cold Harb0r, one Of the blOOdiest
of the war. Grapevine Bridge is just
below it on the ChickahOminy, and
after Mcclellan had been di>odged
farther up the stream he withdrew to-
wards This crossing 30 as to reach the shell
ter OF his gunboatS on James river. The
whole right wing Of Lees army cOnverged
towards this point in the effort to intercept
the Federas. They met here. and the
shock was terrific. Eighteen Federal can
non were captured within fifty yards OF the
dweling-house. Besides the prestige OF
antiquity which hoycrs around and over
the old settlement, it has also the additional
historical attraction mentioned in the annals
Ct the late war. It's associations in this re-
spect will render it famous for long years
TO come.
