Mount Blanchard, very remarkable
child only 5years old, who seems to have
the power ofcharming birds at will. Hel
mother first noticed this strange fascina-
ton which she possesses about a year
ago. The little girl was playing out in
the door yard among a bevy Of snowbiras,
and when she spoke to them they would
come and light upon her, twittering with
the utmost glee. On taking them into
her hands and stroking them, the birds,
instead Of trying to get away from their
fair captive, seemed to be highly pleased,
and when let loose would fly away q
short distance and Immediately return
to the child again. She then took sever
oil Of them. into the house to show her
mother, wh9 thinking she might hurt
them, took the birds and put them out
doors. but no soonerwas tho door opened
than the birds few intothesroom and Lit
upon the girls head and began to chirp.
The birds remained about the premises
oil tho winter, flying to the little girl
whenever the door was opened. The
parents Of this remarkable child became
alarmed believing this strange power
was an itl-omen, and that much dread
ed visitor WAS about to visit their home.
But death did not come, and during
lest summer the child had numerous
pets from the birds. The child handles
the birds 80 gently that o humming
bird 0noe in her hand does not fail to
retsrn. This winter q bevy Of birds

which sparkle like diamonds. The
parents Of this little child are poor, su-
perstitious people and have been very
retieent about the matter until lately,
fearing some great calamity was about
to befall them.

Iism am convinced. For two years

shoulder and right arm, and last fall
was incapable Of attending to my duties,
and lay many q night unable to sleep on
account oil terrible pains. A few weeks
ago a severe attack Of this trouble struck
me, and this time l concluded to try the
st. Jacobs Oil, l must acknowledge, with
but little confidence In lie merits. 1 freely
confess that the result has completely as.
tonished me. The fret application re.
lieved the pain very materially, and the
continued use Of only two bottles has
completely cured me Of this chronic evil,
and that otter the most eminent physicians

Lent.

Tie Lentsn season began yesterday. In
the calendar OF the Episcopal and Roman
Catholic Churches, Tuesday was shrove
Tuesday. In England and Italy that day
was celebrated as In former years by mer'
ny making, and in France 1t means grand
Msrdi.Gras. It's the day, too, when peni'
tent sinners make their confessions. Ash
Wednesday, which ushers In the Lenten
season, was celebrated Yesterday 10 the
various Episcopal and Catholic churches.
In all Roman, Greek and other Oriental
churches Lent Is observed as the fasting
time before Easter. Under the head OF
last have been considered the doctrinal
and historical questions connected with
the general practice Of fasting. The Lem
ten fast has bsen observed for Q much
longer period than 10 generally supposed
The earliest allusion to 1t speaks Of It as
being an established usage, handed down
from the fathers. The forty.day period,
as commemorative OF our Lords forty
days fast, or Of tho similar pertunctory
lasts OF Moses and Elias, COMMENCES with
Ash Wednesday, between which day and
Easter forty days intervene.
The rigor Of tho ancient observance,
which excluded all flesh and even the SO.
called white meat, Is now much relaxed,
but the principle Of permitting but one
meal, with slight collation. In The even.
ing, is universally retained.
At the Cathedral yesterday, at the 0
o'clock mass, Father Sullivan blessed the
ashes and instructed the large Congrega-
ton present 10 regard to the proper OBJ.
servanCe OF the Lenten season. Hereaf:
ter there will be services at the Cathedral
at 1880 each Wednesday and Sunday until
after Easter.
