Ie eeeordeaee with m long established cus tom, thenatal dey of 8t Pelrick wsa celebrated by the too* ef tUe •• Emerald Isle” of ibia oily, to day. Am eloquent and highly Interest ing dieconrae wee dalifared by the Ref James Beseem, el the Atheoeura, to e Urge and alien Ufa auditory. If wo mistake not, 8k Patrick was a Scotch, same by birth, end educated at Rome, and f is- ited Ireland, with some French AboUa, about tbe ffiflk oemtnry. Prefiout to that lime, the Irish Ware a naUon of learned heathen* of the Dreidical Faith, but were taught Christianity by 8k Patrick, who demonstrated the Trinity by the 8h am rock—three leaeee upon one stem. Sk Patrick erected the present Cathedral of Dublin, and was buried at 8k Column's Kiln la the Hebrides. Fire. Four of tbe Are wooden tenements which, for seeerel years paet encumbered the eligible lots on the corner of Alabama and Loyd streets, were burnt laet night, about 10 o'clock.— Three of the buildings—those occupied by the Messrs. Gaean, as a Grocery, R. H. May, at a Carriage Depository, and G. C. Rogers, as a Lifery Stable—were owned by Maj. Z. A. Rice : the fourth by Messrs. Borage & Bloom field. Maj. Rice’s lose is sbout $5,000—no insurance. The lose of Mr. May, we under stand, Id buggies, is about $3,000, covered by insurance. The building owned by Savage A Bloomfield was insured for $300—loss about $300 Mr. Rogers is fully insured- loss trifling. The Fire Companies were promptly on du- . ty, and worked with n will; but the combus tible materials of which the buildings were constructed end the high elite of the wind, rendered their efforts unaeailing, except to present the spread of thetlaiues. This they sncceeded in doing handi»uiely, and by 12 12 o'olock the city was wrapped in repose. We base not heard how the fire originated. Personal. Capl. G. H. Thompson, of the Georgia Ar my, left this city for Savannah on Saturday laat. We are sincerely gratified to learn that our esteemed fellow cilixen F. A. Williams, who was stricken with paralysis n few nights sgo, is considerably better to-dsy—conseiounseee haring been restored. Sudden Death* Wi regret to learn that Mrs. Hill, wife of Capl. William M. Hill, died very suddenly last night. She retired to bed At her usual hour, and apparently in the enjoyment of her usual health. When the fire alarm was sounded, about 10 o'clock, she arose, but soon alter expired—it is supposed in consequence of the rupture oi a blood vessel, caused bv fright. Mrs. Hill was much esteemed by her acquaintances and friends. Direct Trade and Cotton-Nplimer*’ Con vention. This important Convention will meet in this city on the 19ih instant, when we hope to see a full attendance of delegates from all parts of the Confederate States. Our city Couneil, at lie laat regular meeting, appointed the following-named gentlemen a Committee of Invitation, Ac. t Messrs. 8. B. Robson, T. C. Howard, and A. A. Gaulding. On Tuesday last, the Alabama State Conven- i tion ordered the appointment of a Committee ! of five to attend this meeting. COMMERCIAL. At a chance dog tight in Cleveland last week, chloroform had to be administered to the ‘ upper dog" to make bint release hit hold of his weaker opponent. Immediately alter inhaling the subtle fluid the animal relaxed his grasp, and fell insensible, in which condition he re mained for aome time. Three girls, in Jacksonville, Vermont, braided thirty-six lull sited men's palm-leaf hats in fifteen hours, one day lust Week. The quick est time in which they completed three, was for ty-five minutes. StaiT The “Church of the Immaculate Con ception,'’ in New York, which was ended at a cost of $200,000, ia to he dedicated to-mor row (Sunday.) Twelve Bishops have been in. filed. From the New York Courier and Knqurler, 14th. Fort Sumter. If the present AUmiuislration shall order Fort Sumter evacuated, it will do so because circumstances over which it has no control compel it. It will do so because military men declare that Major Anderson cannot be sue cored unless at a useless sacrifice of life.— While tbe order may be one which will be a source of disappointment to all who have de sired to see the rights of our Goverment main tained, still it will be regarded as something which could not be avoided. Fort Sumter bas justly been regarded as a place which ought to be held as long as the Government had any power to hold it. The honor of this Government bas teemed to have been staked upon holding it. The masterly movement ol Anderson in taking possession of it, and the determination he bas shown to maintain bia position, have also rendered the enabling him to do so a matter affeoting our national pride. There is, then, every imaginable reason why this Fin should not be surrendered to the reb els, and there is no one who would more deeply regret its surrender than our President. The opinion he bas expressed since beslArted from Springfield loave no doubt as to his sen limeuts upon this question. But Mr Lincoln is no fanatic, and when those who bold the highest mili'ary positions shall tell him that the evacuation of the Fort is now rendered necessary, he will undoubtedly yield But while he does so, be will h i*e the satisfaction ot knowing that theact will be the consequence of no deed of his, but a necessary result of the misconduct of Mr. Buchanan, who re fused to re inforce the garrison when it might easily have been done. That wretched mau contrived to escape trouble ; but while he did this, be provided that his successor should be surrounded by unprecedented difficulties. It is to be hoped that during the moments which he now has for reflection, some twinges of conscience may awaken him to a sense of the position in which he has brought his country. While the evacuation of Fort Sumter would be so generally regretted, still it does not fol** low that it would be a total surrender of all that the rebels desire. Some Republican journals have already stated that the giving up of that Fort would bo to yield completely to the rebels and would necesitate an acknowl edgemenl of the Southern Confederacy. This is % hasty and au illogical conclusion. If the Government be compelled to do an act whiob it cannot possibly avoid, it does not follow that it is to neglect to do its duly. It has something to do beyond holding possession of the Forte, and while it will hold these wber ever it possibly can do so, the surrender of one, or even more, would not prevent its col lecting the revenue. The surrender of Fort Sumter would only hasten an event which seems now not far off; and that, is an extra session of Congress.— Tbe Congress which has just adjourned made no provisions for the position in which the President is now placed. It gave him no power by which be could meet effectually the difficulties by which he is surrounded. It is very easy to pay that he can order vessels to lie off the harbors of the South for the pur pose of collecting the revenues. It is very evident, however, that were he to issue the ut- cessary orders there would be difficulty io ex ecuting them Somethirg, however, must be done or our Government will be deprived of its just dues. The low tariff of the so-called Southern Confederacy will offer inducements to the importation of all our goods through Southern ports. Under these circumstances, then, it would seem that Mr. Lincoln will be obliged to seek relief from CougreM. Even to collect the revenues by siationiug of vessels off the Southern harbors would seem to involve inca>*urev which he caunot resort to without legislative assistance ; and doubtless the best and readiest mode of meeting the dif ficulty, would be for Congress to declare tbe Southern ports wo longer ports of entry. This would at once sweep away obstacles which would otherwise appear insurmountable and would only involve the necessity of stationing vessels off the different ports for the purpose of proventing illegal entries. The operation, too. of the present Tariff is likely (o be atten ded with uo little embarrassment. There seems to be a difficulty in arriving at what is t£«int by certain chussnn it. The hurried manner in which it was finely acted upon, has evidently produced the natural results. It msy be found that some further legislative action will be necessary in regard to it. Viewing, therefore, the position of the Ad ministration from the most favorable points, it would seem that it cannot deal with the questions it roust meet, without assistance from Congress. How to Makk a Coal Firm—If everybody knew how to make a good Cial fire, there would be more comfort inside and less smoke outside the bouses, in cold weather. Before you throw oa the coals, pull all the Are to the front of the grate towards the bars, Dll np the cavity at the back with the cinders or ashes which will he found under the grate, then throw on the coals.

Lee’s Volunteers We snnounced some days ago, on the author ity of an officer of the Company, that Capt. G. W. Lee’s Volunteers would depart the next day for Charleston. Circumstances conspired to de tain them in the city. We now have the author ity of Capt. Lee himself for saying that his Com pany will certainly leave this city by the Atlan ta A West-Point train to-morrow morning at 10 o'clock, «» route for Pensacola. The Fair Thing. Uessbs. Editoxs: In these hard times, when the poor of the city find great difficulty in getting employment at any prices, and when wages are low, and provisions high, it becomes us to look to every means of bettering their condition.— And although the item of fire wood may be con sidered a matter of* small importance, now that the anmmer is approaching, yet it is of suffi cient importance to command our attention now, though winter should never come again. We bay every other article by weight or measure, but wood is put upon us in the hour of necessi ty, at every mall quantity, and at every exhor- hilant price. It is true that those who always have the money aboot them, may lay in their supplies in large quantities by tbe cord, but very few have it in their power to do so, and are l>ound to purchase by the load—any sort of a load they can get—at such price as the tender inercisn of the teller may dictate. Is this fair ? Is it right f The writer of this article is not a sufferer the present season. lie laid in his wood by the quantity, and bas thereby saved fully half of the cost ol wood by tha load. Xow, whet I wish to present lo your mind, and through you to the City Council, is this : It would be a great saving to the inhabitants of the city, especially the poor, to have an Inspector of Wood appointed by the Council at a moderate ■alary, whose duty it should he lo measure and arrange tbe frames of all wood wagons hauling iatothe city, into cords, half cords, one fourth cords, &:c., as the hauler may desire, and to cou- fiacaie all loads which are dificiect in measure, fiilsely packed, or rotten. By this means, every one would know what he was buying, and tbe law* of demand and supply would soon regulate the price per cord. But under the present sys tem, those who are least able to buy, pay about twice as much per cord, as those who ore the : aaroavsa »ao.t nr wn. a. naaaaa ATLANTA, March 18. Tho busineaa of the past week—probably tbe largest ever transacted in Atlanta—closed firm The amount of cars received per Western & Atlantic Railroad for Atlanta Merchants, has averaged seventy-five per day, all loaded heav ily with Produce. Uuusual activity has been displayed by the trade in filling prior orders, and while they could have made advantageous sales, they have, in every ioatance, filled standing orders. Such dealing is creditable, and gives that high tone aud reliability to business which cannot fail to have its due weight with customers, and add* another to the many arguments in favor of At- Irnla as a whole-ale market.
