St. Patrick's Day.—This is the an ni**r**ry of Ireland's Patron Saint—the great Apostle, whoso namo and memory is so dear to Irishmen of every ereed and in every land—St. Patrick. The early history of the Saint is clothed with much of the vagueness of the legendary period in which he lived, but etill enough is known of him to make his career oue of great interest to his countrymen and to the members of his religious faith. He was born in Haul (France) about the year 387. In the v*ar 430. Xiall. one of the great Kiuirs of Ireland, invaded Gaul and Brittany, and among other prisoners cap tured our Saint and took him back to Ire land. whero he became first the property of four brothers; and subsequently of a man named Mileho, who put him to minding his tlocks. lie remained in this captivity about six years, growing in those great virtues which afterwards rendered him one of the greatest Saints of the Church. At the end of six years he made his escape, but was agaiu taken prisoner and held a captive for about two months, it is thought at Bordeaux in France. While there, he was called, in a vision, back to Irclaud : and having been conse crated Bishop by Pope Clement I, he set out for the land of his adoption und the scene of bis future missionary labors in 432. being theu in his 4;>th year. He arrived at Tara, the seat of the Irish Monarchy, on Holy Saturday, during the Druidical festival of Racli. which was performed in darkness, no light being allowed until “the beacon should be exhibited from the window of the Royal palace: bufr Patrick. according to the primi tive custom of the Church, and regardless of the Royal edict, lighted his paschal fire.” The King was informed of it and went to the Bishop, telling him to advance. This he did, and the King invited him to his Court the following morning. Accompanied by eight Priests, the Apostle entered the Royal household, and boldly made known the truths of Christianity. Many of the sons and daughters of the nobility were con verted ; but King Laoghair was not; he was, however, greatly moved, and gave Patrick permission to preach throughout the entire country. The Druids becoming jealous of his power, told the King that Patrick was an impos ter. Laoghair, to test the question, called a magician and made some propositions which were refused. One was at. last accepted, and resulted in the destruction of the magi cian and the miraculous preservation of one of the Saint’s followers, Bcnignus, after wards his successor. Mauy attempts were made by the Druids to take the life of St. Patrick, but without success. In 452, a malicious idolater named Failge, attempted to assassinate him ; but but Patrick’s disciple and Charioteer hearing of it, changed places in the Chariot, with out telling his master of it, and was killed in his stead. On the 17tb of March, 465, he yielded up his life at the monastery of Saul, in the 78th year of his age. To him has been attributed, among other miracles, the extirpation of snakes and toads from Ireland. But we have no space to give a full account of his virtues and his good deeds. We have simply given from a reliable authority, a condensed narrative of his life, as appropriate to the day, which will, we hope, be of interest to our readers. To our Irish fellow citizens we hope the day may be a pleasant and happy one : aud that in ‘’drowning the shamrock,” they may drown all care and trouble, and rejoice only in peace and prosperity.

New York, March 9. Since our last was issued the steamers City of New York and Java have arrived, with news to the 21st and 24th ult., quoting a decline in cotton, and an advance in American securities. Cotton and gold have both fallen on this news: Cotton yielding but little, as holders are positive an advance in Liverpool must occur on re ceipt of the news of our falling receipts, and are hence strong in their views, which are above those of buyers. Gold has fallen, in sympathy with the rise of 5-20 Bonds abroad, aud the favorable showing made by the lion. Secretary of th« Treasury in his last statement has also served to lower the premium, while the heavy sales by the Gov ernment of its surplus gold has materially assisted the decline. The marked decline in gold, and the reduction in the quotations in Liverpool, would have made a more serious all in Cotton, if the falling off iu receipts had not been so marked in all the ports — more marked than any one. expected, al though we have stated in our Circular that the falling oft' would be abrupt, knowing, as we did. that every Southern holder was pushing forward every jm sible bale to a safq and remunerative market, and that the streams at the South were ceasing to be navigable. The Cotton seized by the Gov ernment has also beeu hurried to the sea ports and depots, aud has formed no unim portant item in <mr receipts. Our exports arc now largely exceeding our receipts, and spintKTs are beginning to renew their stocks. At the present ratio of consumption aud supply, we do not see how we cau get along without a scarcity bring feit for the six and a half "mouths which remain, before we can get the crop of 1866 to Liverpool. Our advices received this week from the South concerning the ffeed mcn continue of- the same tenor. In some places they are working, while in others they are showing the most persistent disre gard for the contracts they have made. The following extract from a letter dated March Ist, from one of the most experi enced and respected men in South Carolina, tells its own story : “Every two or three days something turns up to convince me that it will not do to de pend on the freedmen for raising cotton ; in various instances within the last two weeks, numbers have stopped work and gone away, and that, too, after making con tracts for a year. After full consultation with our i eighbors, we cannot tell whero the blacks have all gone—but it is certain there are tew left iu this section—and I do not think we can, under existing circum stances, raise two million of bales.” We bear of nothing to induce us to in crease our estimate of 2,000,000 of bales as the crop of ISGfi, nor to change our estimate of 2,100,000 as the amount of cotton left in the South at the close of the war, together with the crop raised in 1865. The fall in domestic cotton goods can hardly be con strued to mean that manufacturers fear an excessive supply of the raw material, but it rather indicates a determination among the people to cease paying the enormous profits which manufacturers have been receiving for the past two years, under the admirable working of our so-called Protective Tariff.
