The Right Rev. Bishop Lynch has
issued the following regulations for
Lent in the diocese of Charleston:
Ash Wednesday, the day of Lent,
falls on the 9th of March.
l. All the faithful, who have com
pleted their twenty first year, are,
unless legitimately dispensed, bound
to observe the Fast of Lent.
2. They are to make only one
meal day, excepting Sundays.
3. The meal allowed on fast day is
not to be taken till about noon.
4. AT that meal, if on any day per-
mission should be granted for eating
flesh, both flesh and fish are not to
be used at the same time, even by
way of seasoning.
5. A small refreshment, commonly
called coAation, is allowed in the
evening; no general rule as to the
quantity of food permitted at this
time is or can be made. But the
practice of the most regular Christian
is never to let it exceed the fourth
part of an ordinary meal
6. The quality of food allowed at
a collation. is, in this diocese, bread,
butter, cheese, all kinds of fruits,
salads, vegetables and fish. Milk
and eggs are prohibited.
Z. General usage has made it law
full to drink in the morning some
warm liquid, as tea, coffee, or thin
chocolate, made with water.
8. Necessity and custom have au-
thorized the use of hogs lard, instead
of butter, in preparing fish, vegcta-
bles, sc.
8. The following persons are ex-
empted from the obligations of fast
ing: Young persons under twenty
one years of age, the sick, nursing
women, those who are obliged to do
hard labor, all who through weakness
cannot fast without great prejudice
to their health.
10. By dispensation the use of
flesh meat will be allowed at any
time on Sundays, and once day on
Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and
Saturdays, with the exception of
Holy Thursday, and the second and
last Saturdays of Lent
II. Persons dispensed from the
obligation of fasting, on account of
tender or advanced age, or hard labor,
are not bound by the restriction of
using meat only at one meal on DAYS
on which its use is granted by dis
pensation. Others dispensed from
the fast for other causes, as we'll as
those who are obliged to fast, are
permitted to use meat only at one
meal

SINGULAR Discovery OF Com

NiNUObAh OlSCOVERY OF COIN. =
Mr.: Samuel Horton, of Rockaway,
n. Y, while engaged in telling some
trees ID the vicinity of Grassy Pond,
few days since, came across a hollow
tree, IN which he found secreted the
sum of $500 in silver. From marks
upon some of the coins, it is evident
that the deposit was made over four
teen years ago.
A census Of Alabama, taken in
1866, shows that the population of
that State has only increased 1000
IN the past six years. The total pop
ulatlon given by this census is 973,-
1856.
"A man in Philadelphia put his mo-
ther' aged seventy-nine, out in the
street, to be taken care of by the
police.
A fruit dealer was told by Detroit
paper that he sold berries in a false
measure. Fruit dealer vas awarded
$1,000 damages.

Prentice, in the Louisville Jomaal,
thus concludes q notice of the late
poet of Idlewild:
Farewell Willis! AS the Hebrew
girl by her loved river sits and listens
to Its melancholy wall, mourning for
glories long since faded, so sit we to-
night by thy fresh-made grave and
mourn for one who was the magic
musician whose ightest strain stirred
our rugged nature and softened it's
stern chords, until only harmony
soft, sweet, delicious filled
our soul. Willis, farewell"

CoLoRED PEOPLE AND THE STREET
CARS. At intervals of about two
months, we are called upon to record
an instance of an obstreperous darkev
attempting to ride inside the street
cars in opposition to the rules of the
companies and the decisions of the
Supreme Court. Another instance of
this kind of conduct on the part of a
colored man happened yesterday, on
a car Of the Arch Street Railway Com
pany, above Broad street. The CO.
lored man being requested to vacate,
refused to do so. The car was put off
the track and the colored individual
allowed to remain inside the motion
less car. A crowd soon collected and
a general discussion on the subject of
the rights of the colorcd people was
lndnlged in. The most emphatic in
expressing an opinion was colorcd
woman, who tdidn't see what right a
nigger had sticking himself amongst
white folks where he wasn't wanted.
and getting the white folks down on
u.s." No further disturbance occur
red, and the colored man soon got
tired of his quiet position and Va
mosed. ed.-Phllalelphia 4dge, 2Sth.

MUCH TAKrNG OF OATHs A West
ern editor who has been a lawyer, in
one OF his lucid intervals, writes the
following:
A practice OF thirty years in the
tribunals of civil and criminal justice
has satisfied MS that any man who will
wllfully and deliberately lie for the
purpose Of benefting himself, or in
Jurlng another, will as readily swear
to that lie. Oaths have been so
cheapened, by being so universally
and unnecessarily required, that they
have come to have no sanctity at all
we would Just as soon take mans
testimony without his oath rs with it..

INDIANS AT CHURCH. Several In
dlans attended the Episcopal Church
of the Epiphany, in Washington, on
Sunday morning, when a sermon was
preached on the subject of domestic
missions, and, without any previous
announcement, $1,000 were collected
on the spot for mission purposes.
The afternoons services, at the same
church, were rendered interesting by
the presence Of large number Of
Dakotas and Ojibways, baptized mem
bers of the church. One of the Oiib-
ways, who is an ordained deacon.
was in the chancel with his surplice,
and made few remarks, in good
English, explaining the condition of
ms tribe, followed by remarks from
Two others, in their own language. A
cholr CT twelve sang two hymns very
credltahly, in their native tongue,
and every Indian present had his
prayer-book, translated from the
Book Of Common Prayer. The
church was crowded to excess.

TROUBLE AMONG DRY GooDs MER-
CHANTS. William A. Putney, mem
Der of prominent dry goods firm
IN Chicago, has commenced three
suits against Claffiin & Co., and Seth
OTIS, OF New York, and his two part
ners, laying the aggregate damages
at 100000, the charges being tres
pass and slander. He alleges that the
defendants in these suits have con-
spired to get him out of his firm, and
have made scandalous charges against
him, IN order to destroy his credit.

The Russian Govcrnmenthas made
another step in advance. 1t has par
italy thrown open to the Jews two
important towns formerly closed
against them. Jewish merchants of
the second and third guild may now
settle at Sebastopol and Nikolaieff.
trade there, and even acquire real
estate. A still greater boon to the
Jews, and one which has also a po-
lltlcal significance, is the offer made
by the Russian Government to the
Jews of Bokhara and other central
Aslatic countries, to take them under
Its protection. The offer, it is said,
has been eagerly accepted by them,
as they were fearfully oppressed by
the Mohammedan rulers and popula-
tlon of those countries.

New YORK DRY GooDs TRADE.
The New York Consmerc,al, in a re-
view of the dry goods trade, says:
Prices are not very firm. 1t is un
certain If any great quantities Of
goods could be disposed of at a re-
duction. Merchants are buying such
amounts as the actual necessities of
their trade require, and are very eau
tlous about accumulating stocks.
Woolen goods do not show the same
improvement. The trade is without
animation, and people have almost
ceased to expect any change at pre-
sent: The auction sales of foreign
goods continue to be quite animated,
but importers are generally submit
Jing to loss on their earlier import
ations. Some goods imported this
season bring remunerative prices,
but generally the dress goods and
spring fabrics can be purchased mere
cheaper than they actually cost to
import.
