COLUMBIA, S. C. Saturday Morning. March 18, 1870. Celebration of St. Patrick's D?y_Th? Philosophy o? Scsi? Occasion?. The 17th day of March-Ireland's natal day-was commemorated in this city. An association-sooial and benevolent in its features, and called the Hibernian Society of Columbia, was organized. We believe there is genuine sentiment, es well as sound principle, in these asso? ciations based upon national feelings and characteristics. We know that there are some men who would sink all these points, and who fondly dream of that millennium, political, social and reli? gious, when the whole human family shall meet together in "the Parliament of Man" and be united in "the Federa? tion of the world." But whatever may be the tendency of the age to centraliza? tion, yet are we satisfied that we are yet far from that "unification" of which theorists and enthusiasts dream. In His Providence, Qodnot only made differing races, but differing peoples of the same race. And we believe it in a shallow idea wbioh would ignore those divisions, and a rose-water philosophy which would seok to dilute the blood of marked races. Not the feeling of nation? ality is an elevated sentiment, and cer? tain are we that those foreigners will prove the truest and staunchest of the adopted children- of this country, who preserve in their heart of hearts the memories of the virtues of their native land. "We are human, and we esteem nothing that is human foreign to our nature." But still do we believe in the cultivation of the feeling of a marked nationality, with this pr?vido only, that the national virtues be imitated and the national vices be esohewed. We are not unaware of the grandeur of that philan? thropy and the extent of that humanity which, passing over mountains, deserts and oceans, embraces a world in its sym? pathies. But we hold that there isa logical and healthful mode of the grand development. As the circle created by the fall of a pebble upon the suriace of some tran? quil lake, begins with a slight circum? ference bat gradually widens until it breaks upon the utmoat boundaries of the disturbed waters, so the cirole of patriotic feeling should first begin at home before it assumes to draw to its heart a continent or a world. We extract from the columns of the Charleston Neios the following eulogistic remarks by members of the bar of that city upon the life and services of the late distinguished and eminent counsel? lor, the Hon. Wm. F. DeSaussure: When the State Court was convened yesterday morning, Col. John Phillipa arose aud said: Tho intelligence has already boen con? voyed to us of the death of an eminent member of the bar of this State-Hon. Wm. F. DeSaussure. He was the oldest member of the bar of South Carolina. Ho was a gentleman far advanced in years, aud the whole course of his life has been that of a very distinguished nnd eminent counsellor. He was not only nu able lawyer, but an eminent legislator. He occupied a high position iu the Senate of the United States, and was greatly respected iu the Legislature nf his own State. He lived without giv? ing offence, and died, I trust, in peace with his God aud in perfect charity with all mankind. Believing it to be in con? sonance with the feelings of the bar, 1 now move an adjournment of tho court, in respoot to the memory of this dis? tinguished deceased. Mr. Richard Yeadon followed Colonel Phillips, and said: If your Honor please, I ask tho privi? lege of seconding the motion which hat just boen made by Colonel Phillips. 1 was well acquainted with Mr. DeSaus sure. Many years siuee it was my pleasure to serve with him in the Legisla turo. I endorso fully nil my colleague has said in respeot to his eminence, hi; virtues aud his exemplary aud inoffensiv? life. He was the son of the late Cbttn cellor DeSassure, ono of tho most emi neut jurists that ever occupied a positioi on tho bench of South Carolina, and brother of the late Henry A. DeSaussure whose decease we wore called to motin bat two or throe years since, and whicl was marked at that timo by a prope; tributo of respect by the bonah and ba: of .this city. Mr. DeSaussure was ai eminent lawyer, aud one of the mos distinguished in tho land. While hi was most devoted to his profession, lu filled many other positions of useful uess. Ho was a devoted trustee of th* College of South Carolina, aud officiatet as chairman of the executive oommittei of that board. Ho had tho honor o occupying a seat in the Sounto of Hi United States, by appointmcut of th Executive, to fill the unexpired term of : deceased Senator. ? mau of his emi non! character, loaming und virtues i ouo whom it is our delight to honor, une whoso death wo can but lament, cordially second the motion. Geuornl James Simons said: I should not do justice to my ow: feelings, if your honor pieuse-, if I dil not, on this occasion, express my con curt'CDce in the remarks which have jut fallen from my brethren in respect t tho pending motion. At another time will, in the discharge of my duty, spcn more at length than I can ou this, i reference to Mr. DeSaueiure. My ow relations with bim from my infancy have been euch as to enable me to justify all that has been said by the gentlemen who have preoeded me, and especially in re? s peet to his trusteeship of the college. A life-timo of acquaintance, a service of twenty years with him in that board, and an association with him in the Le? gislature, authorizes mo to confirm , all that has been said of Mr. DaSanssuro's merits. I trust the motion will be granted. The motion was granted, sod an order of adjournment was directed to be entered upon the minutes. SUDDEN DEATH.-We regret to state that Mr. Joseph Fant, an elderly and much respected citizen of this County, died very suddenly on Thursday night last, from an apoplectic attack. He was taken ill in the afternoon, while at work on his plantation, and in a few hours death ended his earthly sufferings. This solemn warning should foroibly impress upon our hearts the scriptural injunc? tion, "be ye therefore ready, also." Truly in the midst of life we are in death.-Union Times. AFFRAY.-On Saturday last an alterca? tion occurred between Mr. R. J. Cheat ham, residing near the Tillage and a oolored man in bis employ. High words passed between them, and Cheatham finally discharged his gan, wounding the negro very severely in the throat. He escaped narrowly with his life. Cheat ham was arrested and has given bail to answer an indictment.-Abbeville Press. A SAD ACCIDENT.-A little son of our esteemed friend, A. J. Stokes, met with a very serious accident on Monday last, from which it is fearod he will loee one of his eyes. It appears he was chasing a horse that was loose in the yard, with a whip, when the animal kicked him on the eye. Medical attendance was imme? diately called, bat it is supposed the eye is entirely destroyed.-Union Times. A sale of leaf tobacco at Bichmond, at $151 per one hundred pounds, is men? tioned as the highest figure of the sea? son. Little Bock, Arkansas, is anxious for a Young Men's Christian Association. It needs it badly. The Christian church at Columbus, Miss., was robbed the other day of altar oloths and several other things. Corinth, Miss., has seven saioous and one daily prayer-meeting. If you want a fino appetite and good digestion use Dr. Tut t's Golden Eagle Bitters. "Ohl what an excellent Tonio," is the language of the invalid who uses SOLO? MONS* BITTERS. N21 Dyspeptics should use Dr. Tutt's Golden Eagle Bitters. "Just the thing 1" Such is tho excla? mation of the Dyspeptics who use SOLO? MONS' BITTERS. N21 Dr. Tutt's Golden Eagle Bitters is the best tonio in the United States. "I am strong and healthy, yet to pre? servo my good condition," I uso SOLO? MON'S BITTERS. N21 A healthy and exhiliratiog beverage is Dr. Tutt's Golden Eagle Bitters. The weak and emaciated mother says: "My health and strength is restored by the use of" SOLOMONS' BITTE*??.

SINKING S LOW L, Y-DiBcases that pro? gresa rapidly to a crisis aro not tho only onos to bc dreaded. Canker or dry rot does not blast a tree as suddenly aa a stroke, of light? ning, but unless arreated, it destroys it as certainly; and in like manner chronic debili? ty, although it does not kill with thc swiftness of yellow fever, ia aa euro to aap the springs of life eventually aa any acute disease, if not checked by invigorating medication. There ia something inexpressibly touching in tl I spectacle of premature decay. Languor, pal? lor, omaciation, depression of spirits, and a diatato for exertion, aro its ordinary symp? toms, and they should be promptly met by tonic treatment. Tho boat invigorant and ex hilarant that can bo adminiatercd in a caao of thia kind ia Iloatetter'a Stomach Bittora. The stimulating principle of the preparation rouses tho dormant energies of tho system, and the atrengthening and regulating propor? tion give a permanent and healthful impnlae to thc vital forcea thus brought into play.
