Its Observance In the City-First Pa? rade of the Irish Rifle Club-Thc Pro cession-Annual Reunion and Dinner of thc Hibernian Soc I tty-O tb er Ob? servances and Festivities. By the accident of the 17th of March, ia this year of oar Lord 1872, occurring on Sunday, the celebration of St. Patrick's Day will take place to-day in this city, as Indeed lu every portion of the world where Irishmen are found. The memories and traditions of the day were touched upon in the .Catholic Churches In the sermons yesterday, especially at St. Mary's, where the Rev. Father Welch, In the course of au eloquent discourse, al? luded to the life of the honored saint. But the grand outburst of patriotic fervor by which the filial Irishman, at every recurrence of St. Patrick's Day, reveres his memory, will take place to-day. To-day the heart ot every Celt who ls worthy of the name is turned with all the warmth and poetry for which that heart ls proverbial to the traditions of his native isle, and every method is employed to suitably demonstrate the feelings evoked by that one anniversary which serveB at the same time to commemorate the virtues of a pious bishop, and to keep alive In the Irish heart the sentiment ot nationality and devotion to that hope of future Independence as a happy people, which, however discourag? ed, ls still dea^to the Irlshheart. In this city the arrangements give promise (unless Indeed the threatened frowns of Jupi? ter Pluvius should Interpose) of an unusually effective and complete demonstration. They Include a parade of the Irish Rifle Club and the St. Patrick's Society, the annual meetings and the Invariable festivities of the Hibernian Society, the St. Patrick's Benevolent Society, and a host of private reunions iucldental to the occasion. The Street Display will be especially noticeable this year OB ac? count of the first public parade of the Irish Rifle Club, an association lately organized, which serves to revive the memories of by? gone days? when the Celtic portion of Charles- j ton's citizen soldiery, on every occasion, oc? cupied an honored and honorable part. Since Appomattox there has? been no Irish miiilary organization in this city until the formation of | this club, and this initial parade of the new company ls invested, therefore, with an un? usual degree of Interest and significance. The club will assemble at eight A. M., at their armory, corner of George and King Btreets, marching thence to Hibernian Hall, where tiley will be Joined by the St. Patrick's Society, which meets at that hall, at eight o'clock. The two organizations will then form In pro? cession, preceded by the new band of the St. Patrick's Society, and majrch to St Patrick's Church, where high mass will be celebrated at ten o'clock, and an oration delivered bv the Rev. C. J. Crogban, the president of the so? ciety. The Hibernian Society to-day begins the seventy-second year of its existence, and as ls always the case with this Influential and venerable body, will celebrate the day in royal style. The anniversary meet? ing will be held at noon, at Hibernian Hall, in Meeting street, when officers for the ensuing year will be elected, and such other business transacted as may be Introduced. In the evening the society with its Invited guests will partake of euch a least of good things as only the genius of Tully, Inspired by the liberality of the Hibernian Society, can pro ride. The supper will be served at half-past 9even, and a word to the wise ls sufficient to lespeak a punctual attendance of guests and members. The St. Patrick's Benevolent Society ivlll reassemble at 8 P. M. at Bernard's Hall, corner of King and Society streets, where an? other bounteous supply oi good things will be served up to the members and their guests, with the accompaniments of good cheer and good fellowship for which the name and record of | inls society ls a guarantee. The United Irish Association ?Iso holds its anniversary meeting this even? ing at Us hall, No. 18 Hayne street, for the election of officers and the appropriate ob? servance of the day. A feature of the decorations ot the city will be the large Irish flag presented by the late Captain M. Berry, ol the steamship Columbia, of ante-bellum memory, which will be promi? nently displayed from Hibernian Hall, and which, in spite of Us vicissitude of wind and weather In so many annual celebrations of the day, is well preserved, and will form a strik? ing and effective decoration of this noble build? ing. St. Patrick's Sunday-School-Distribu? tion of Premiums. The anniversary celebration of the St. Pat? rick's Sunday-sohool took place yesterday afternoon at the church corner of St. Phillp and Radcliffe streets, at the appointed hour. The weather was most disagreeable, but the church was notwithstanding soon crowded with a dense array of promising boys and girls, varying In size from the lisping prattlers in short frocks to masters and misses of fifteen and Bixteen years. The Rev. C. J. Crogban presided, with whom was the Rev. John Moore, D. D., the president of the Sunday-school, the Rev. S. Carew, vice-president, and Messrs. P. J. Kruse apd J. T. Kanapauarthe secretary and superintendent. The exercises were opened by the hymn "St. Patrtck," which was sung by the children with much fervor and effect. A programme had been distributed among them with printed choruses of the various hymns, which enabled them to join In the singing to the enjoyment of all present. The report ot Superintendent Kanapaux, In con? coction with that of the secretary, was next read. The report showed the continuing and Increasing prosperity of the Behool. Four hundred and forty-two children, two hundred and fourteen girls and two hundred and twenty-eight boys, were now upon the rolls of the school, being an Increase of eighty-seven pupils, as compared with the number of the last anniversary. Of these, the average num? ber attending was three hundred and sixty four, the average of the number absent having been largely Increased by the'yellow fever sea? son. The award of medals and premiums fol? lowed, varied at Intervals by the sweet notes of | the organ and I he chorus ol youthful Blngers. The examination In Bishop England's cate? chism was concluded on Friday, and thirty? nine girls and seven boys were reported as en? titled to the medals In their respective de? partments. Their claims was decided by lot, when the medal was drawn by Miss Julia Meredith among the girls, and Matthew St?ren Hmong the boys. The premium?, consisting of | Handsomely bound books, Ac, were then dis? tributed among such of the pupils as had at? tained a certain number of good marks, but the very large number of these prevents our jiving the names. In conclusion the presid? ing officer. Rev. C. J. Crogban, delivered an affectionate and appropriate address to th?? iuvenile assemblage, and the exercls?' werg concluded by the singing of ^ b^auLifui hymn, "As the Dewy - ^ Qf EveQlng>" During the exerces the ch(irch wa3 crowde(l with spectators, p a? tne occasion seemed to | excite a deep arjd general interest among the residents of tho parish. St. Patrick's Day and Its Memories. THE SHAMROCK. Tom Moore, la the exuberance ot his poetic fancy, thus enwreathes the Shamrock in sparkling verse : Through Erin's Isle To Bp ort awhile As Love and Valor wandered, With Wit the sprite Whose quiver aright A thousand arrows squandered, Where'er they pass A triple grass Shoots up with dew-drops streaming, As softly green As emerald'a seen Through purest cryatal gleaming. Ob, the shamrock, the green, Immortal sham? rock, Chosen leaf Of bard and chief, Old Erin's native smamrock ! Says Valor, "See, They spring for me, Those leafy gema of morn.ngl" Says Love, "No, no, For me they grow, My fragrant path adorning !" But Wit perceives The trple leaves, And cries, "Oh I do not sever A type that bleeds Three godlike friends, Love, Valor, Wit forever ?" Ob, the shamrock, the green, immortal sham? rock. Chosen leaf Of bard and chief, Old Erin's native shamrock r So, firmly fond May last the bond They wove that morn together. And ne'eranay fall One drop of gall On Wit's celestial leather I May Love, as shcot Els flowers and frnlt, Of thorny falsehood weed 'em; May Valor ne'er His etan 'a d rear Against the cause of freedom I Oh, the Bhamrock, the green, immortal sham? rock, Chosen leaf Of bard and chief. Old Erin's native shamrock I A MAN FOUND DEAD.-At half-past six o'clock yesterday morning, Sidney Single? ton, a colored member of the police, stopped at his residence, No. 24 Nassau street, while on his way to the upper Guardhouse to make his report. Upon pushing open the gate he found the body of Jeremiah Aiken, a colored man, in a Eitting posture In the corner be? hind the gate, with his head thrown back against the fence. The body was yet warm and limber, but no pulse could be felt. Sin? gleton immed ately reported the case to the upper Guardhouse. From the statement of ( the inmates of the house, lt seems tbat the dead man lived there, and returned home at half-past ' ten o'clock on Saturday night with a strange man. The lat? ter called aloud to the family, and a small boy having been dispatched te open the gate, found Jeremiah leaning against lt alone. AB the gate was opened, Jeremiah staggered in and fell down lo the corner of the fenoe. Be? ing unable to move him, the boy left him there, and he was found by Singleton as stated. The deceased was employed in a grocery and liquor store at the corner of America and Am? herst streets, and was frequently drunk. It ls supposed that he was so on the night in ques? tion, and that the terrible exposure to the weather aided in finishing him. On the back part of his head 1B a wound, which seemed to have bled freely, and was covered with matted blood and bair. An Inquest was held over the body yesterday afternoon, at the hospital, whither lt was conveyed. Hotel Arrivals-March IO and 17. PAVILION HOTEL. J. N. Champion, Le Roy, N. T.; Mr. and Mrs. Chas.
