Extract of a letter from Dublin, March 18. Yesterday being
the festival of St. Patrick, the day shone forth with a
brilliancy hitherto unknown in the annals of Ireland.  It
displayed the grand ceremony of the installation of the
Knights of the Order of St. Patrick, 
. . . At six o'clock in the morning the drums of the
regulars and volunteers beat to arms, and a little after the
corps took their respective stations. . . [Several
paragraphs on the ceremonies.]
