The victory gained on St.- Patrick's day last, by the Apostles of Temperance in London — and at the head of the gallant corps stands the Cardinal Archbishop of Westminster — deserves to be proclaimed with the sound of the highest praise. It is from the Tablet we gather the intelligence of the victory, in its remark " that on Monday (St. Patrick's Day was on the preceding' Saturday) the charges of all descriptions at the police courts in London were lighter than they had been for some considerable time, and there was not a single one which could in any way be attributed to the celebration of the festival on Saturday." The Tablet justly glories in proclaiming this fact, by which, " our Irish fellow-Catho^ lies have taught the inhabitants of London a lesson."
