St. Patrick's Day--How it was Commemorated. Yesterday was St. Patrick's Day. Our "Irish fellow-citizens" had intended to celebrate it with more than the usual show, but, when their arrangements for a turn-out were made, the Civic Societies discovered that the 17th fell this year in Holy Week. They therefore determined to postpone their display till Monday next. The Irish military, however, were not so scrupulous.
