ST. VALENTINE AND HIS DAY.

st Valentine was priest of Rome,
who suffered martyrdom in the third
century. Historians differ as to the
year, seme placing it in 270, others IN
500, but agree that he was beheaded
on the14th of February Legend tells us
than his life wasone of singular virtue,
having so little to say of this gocly man,
en deayors TO make amends by dwelling
at length on the ceremonies and festlvl~
ties observed on his day, bnl the good
bishop himself seems to have little or
no connection with the practices to
which the 14th of February has since
been given up. This day is thought 10
be especially devoted to The business of
CUPID and Hymen. Possibly that it is
the season when birds choose their
matts, may be the origin of this belief.
Again; it has been supposed, that it may
have originated from the fact that the

February, and that amongst the ceres
monies practiced, favorite one was to

will be presented to Congress
through Congressman McRae at an

off the back and encroaching or
the town.
