REGULATIONS FOR LENT IN THE do
CESE DE NISAUALl.Y.

/. All week days Of Lent from Ash Wedncs
day ooh Of Febi uary) inClusitely, till EasteI
Sunday exclusively, are fasting days Of Obliga
tions, on which only one full meal is allowed
A cup Of tea or coffee, with a small piece o
dry bread, is allowed in the morning, and 1
moderate collation. in the evening.
2. The precept Of fasting implies that Of ab
stinence from flesh meat. But, by dispense
ton, the use Of flesh meat is. allowed in thil
diocese, once day on all Mondays, Tuesdays
and Thursdays of Lent, except Holy Thursday
and at every meal on all Sundays. BY th'
foregoing dspensation, then, there remain only
three days Of abstinence every weck Of Lent
the Holy Week excepted.
8. The rules Of fasting would be broken by
taking the full meal any considerable time be-
fore noon without, sufficient cause.
4. The use Of flesh meat and fish at the same
meal is prohibited.
0. There Is no prohibition to use eggs, butter
cheese and milk. Lard may be used in pre-
pairing fish aud vegetables on all days Of Lent
This dlspensation extends to all days Of absti'
nence throughout the year.
6. The Church dispenses from fasting (but
not from abstinence, except in special cases ol
sickness or the like) the infirm and valetudina.
rians, nurses and pregnant women, those who
are not twenty years Of age, such as are obliged
to make long and painful journeys and voyages,
and all who, by fasting, would he rendered un
able to discharge the duties Of their employ
ment or would endangcr their health. All
such persons, however, ought to supply the fast.
Ng by good works.
Z. The spirit Of tho church Is, that fasting
and abstinence be Joined with aims, fervent
prayers, and good works, according to each
ones ability. For Prayer is good with fasting
and aims, more than to lay up treasures Of
gold" said the angel to Tobias, xii, g. The
praiseworthy practice Of saying the Rosary
every day in each family is particularly recon-.
mended.
8. Fasting and abstinence ought to be OBJ.
served with penitential spirit; that is, with q
deep sense Of the guilt Of our sins and hearty
sorrow for them, with sincere desire 10 return
to God, and readiness to perform the satisiac.
ton We owe Him for all our trcspasses. Fast.
ing and abstinence in this spirit cannot iai! to
move God to mercv in our regard.
8. According to an indulgence Of our Holy
Father the Pope, Plus lX., the seamen and sol
ders in the U. S. service have only six days Of
abstinence during the year, viz. Ash Wednes
day, the three last days Of the Holy Week, the
vigil Of the Assumption Of the D. v. NJ, and
the vigil Of Christmas.

On New Year evening furious wind storm yisl-
ted this city, and blew with such violence that
peop!e walking through the streets were almost
lifted from the ground The blow was by many
degrees the heaviest we have had in this neigh
boThood for long time, and the cold was about
equal in intensity. Such hardy people as exposed
themselves out of doors paid dearly for their rash
ness Jack Frost cut pitiicssly through overcoats,
muffIers and every other contrivance invented to
keep him Off Every blast from old Boreas sent q
fearful chill rushing through the mouths, throats
and lungs. while the ears were frozen OF entirely
The efforts of suffering humanity to counteract the
combined effects of wind and cold were both ANU
sing and painful. People might be seen rushing
through the streets at full speed, swinging their
arms, Jumping stamping, hallooing, andperform-
ING the most extraordinary gymnastic exercises.
The yery stones of the streets seemed uneasy
under the infiction, and few around in every
direction accompanied by blasts of dust and dirt,
which increased very materially the discomforts OF
animated nature. In doors the wind whlsked
through the chirnies in mourntul manner, ana
whjstIed shrilly between the cracks of doors and
kevholes, besides rattling loose windows and shut
ters in no musical fashion. Altogether the storm
was ouite uncomfortable, and continued with IN
obated force all Friday night, ushsring in the
second day of the new year with increased fury, II
possible.
All Yesterday the temperature was exceedingly
fioid. and the wind blew very violently. At the
late hour at which this was written there was no
sensible decline in the gale ard the cold was more
intense. if anything. Notwithstanding this how
ever. no accidents to our local habitations were
reported. The shipping in our harbor, as'will be
.aen by our marine report suffered to some ex-
tent, and it is apprehended that the disasters at
sea must have been very numerous .-HeTdtd 4Ih.

A new IRox-C1AD INVENTION. Mr. Owen Col

A new IRoy-CLAD INVENTION Mr.. Owen Col
Inns, an enterprising and ingenious mechanic, re-
siding at 70 Mott street, New York, has exhibited
the model of a new iron-cad vessel which he has
recently invented. tappears to be an ingeniously
contrived piece of mechanism, and is at least
worthy the consideration Of the naval authorities
at Washington. The inventor claims that ves-
sci built according to his model is capable of
withstanding any artillery force now in vogue
He contends that four sheets of iron constructed
according to his plan have got more force of re-
sstance than seven sheet of common plate iron !;
that it has twice the resistance of solid plate iron
of the same thickness and almost the same buoy
anc1 as n wooden vessel that it can be applied
to either land batteries, coast harbor defences,
or to mercantile pursuits and that, with good
pair of engines, she could run from seventeen to
eighteen knots an hour.
Not the least important feature in the invention
is that vessel so constructed can be submerged
and pumped out in thirty minutes.

EFFECTS OF THE Cold WEATHER NoRTH.-On
Friday night Jan. l, the Susquehanna river froze
up so tightly that the railroad ferry-boat, with
three hundred passengers on board, was locked
up in the river, immovably tight. Senators and
Congressman in large numbers are on the boat,
in houses near the ferry or returned to Philadel-
phia where they are waiting for a thaw, or some
thing else, to supply tie terrible defects in the
only railroad connection which now exists with
the capitol of the nation, and enable them to get
to Washington. Numerous dispatches are daily
received at the hotels in Washington from these
uufortunates, written mostly to quiet the appre-
tensions of friends.

The North Carolina Times says "The British
schooner G. 0. BigeIo,c, which was captured by
the q. S. Transport Fakon and then abandoned,
made her way into Swansboro near Wilmington,
unloaded her salt, and was about to run the
blockade in ballast, when she was caught and
burnt by one Of the U. s. steamers"
The health Of this department is good. The
weather is mild and pleasant.
