HERBALISTIC REMEDIES. - In former
days,if a member of the household became
indisposed, the family head, under in
structions from the gray haired dame, went
TO the forest or the field, to gather herbs
or berries, from which were quickly made
invigorating extracts, which ere many days
brought the patient safely around, and
saw the family gathering once more with
out a missing member. How is it now
The slightest indisposition brings the
family physician with his handsome
carriage. He feels the pulse, examines
the tongue, looks very grave, writes few
lines of ;eroglyphics, charges big fee,
and leaves, only to return the next day and
find his patient mercurialized sufficiently
to be really sick. a week or two of attend
ance follows, and therein lies the secret Of
wealthy physicians Compare the
physique of the present age with the past,
aud the story is complete. Reader, dis

CANDLEMAs DAY.-The feast of the Purifica-
ton of tho Blessed Virgin Mary occurs to-
morrow. Our readers know of the beautiful
custom prevailing throughout the Church to
bless candles on that day. Multitudes of the
faith al havo tho habit of keeping such eau
dies in their houses, while they leave many in
the churches Offering for the of the
altar. 1t is to be hoped that all Catholics will
remember the necessity of illuminating their
affairs with good deal of splendor on many
occasions and take q pleasure of making an
Offering to that end according to their means.

Unequal Education.

Our contemporary, the New York Tablet,
has in Its last issue q reprint of an article
on Unequal Education" taken from the
Evangelist, a Protestant paper of that city.
The Erangelist argues at considerable
length that education should be addressed
as directly to the soul as to the intellect,
and complains that SO great preponder-
ance is given in public schools to the mere
acquisition of learning. 1t is strongly
opposed to that system of education which
leaves no time, or makes no provision, for
spiritual training.
This is certainly great advance on the
part Of an influential Protestant organ, and
betrays an awakening sense of the short
eomings of the fatal plan of education
which is running tho moral character of the
American people. But we hepe that the
Ecansslist will 60 even further in it's ideas.
1t claims now that schools ought to be dis
missed early on Wednesdays and pupils
RENTED to the instruction of their Sunday
school teachers. Why not recognize the
whole truth at once and be convinced that
spiritual and intellectual training ought to
gohand in hand every moment of the school
day. The whole influence of the teacher, his
allusions, his illustrations, his manner-all
should tend to fill the mind and heart of
his pupils with a reverence for things holy,
This is the real spiritual training with out
which a certain amount of examining with
catechism and Bible history will not
amount to anything.

(Ofcial)
Regulations for Lent for tho Diocese of Natchez.

(OfhCial1
Regulations for Lent for the Diocese of Natchez
During Lent we allow the use of flesh meat
On all days except Wednesdays and Fridays,
Che Ember Days and Holy Saturday.
The law of abstaining from flesh meat is bind
ing on all who are not exempted by reason of
bad health necessty-even on children,
from the age of seven years; and parents COM
nIit mortal sin every time they allow their
shildren to eat meat when it is forbidden.
AL persons are bound to fast who have
reached the age of twenty-one years, unless
lawfully exempted on account of hard labor
OF bad health-concerning which they ought
to consult their pastor or confessor, and accept
from him some other good work to be per-
formed in place of fasting.
Mothers, either bearing children or sucking
them, would do wrong to fast.
The law of fasting requires that q person
should not eat more than one full meal in the
day, and not until midday, or near it.
A collation. may be taken in the evening, but
1t should not exceed the fourth part of an
ordinary dinuer, or at most eight ounces.
When meat is allowed on week days in Lent
persons who are bound to fast cannot use meat
except at the one principal meal. On Sundays
it may be used at every meal.
1t is not allowed to eat flesh and fish at the
same meal in Lent-not even on Sundays.
In the morning, the drinking of coffee, etc.
is not forbidden, but there is no permission to
eat, unless it be SO little that the law is not
presumed to notice it.
Sometimes, also, persons whose health or
occupations would not allow them to fast
vigorously, may, by eating q small amount, be
enabled to observe the fast in part. In such
cases it is laudable.

DEAD.-A private telegram to us from
Carson, brings the sad news that Hon.
James S. Slingerland, ex-Lieutenant
Governor Of this State, died at his resi-.
dence in that city at 2 o'clock this morn
ing. The funeral is to take place at l
o'clock p. M. tomorrow. Mr.. Singer
land has been much afflicted with infiam-
atory rheumatism at various times, and
for several weeks previous to his death
be was confined to his bed. We presume
this disease has finally been the cause Of
his death. This sad intelligence will
fall like shadow of depressing gloom
upon large circle of the community,
for few men had more warm and true
friends than Mr.. Slingerland, and all will
deeply synpathize with his beloved and
worthy family in their sad breave-
ment. Mr.. Slingerland was true, gen.
tlemanly, genialhearted, whole.souled
gentleman; talented and honorable; nat
urally affiliating with and almost full
member of the press; upright and eff
cient in the discharge OF his duties Us o
public officer, and though not given to
the accumulation of worldly wealth, he
leaves behind reputation and name
which wealth could not purchase. A
long and last farewell to Slingerland,
and eternal repose to his genial soul in
