The house-warming 1t ST. Marks Home
last evening was very pleasant affair. It
lasted from O'Clock until 10 O'Clock P. NJ
The house was full of visitors who began to
arrive shortly after the opening hour. Nearly
all made the teur of the interior, and those
not acquainted with the improvements which
have been made, were astonished and at the
same time pleased and gratifed At what they
saw. From top to bottom everything was in
dicative of the ease and comfort which kind
hearts and willing hands have provided for
the elderly ladies who are to be the occu-
pants of the Home. The building has been
enlarged to nearly double its former capacity,
and is furnished with all modern conveniences
common to our best private residences. 1t is
heated throughout by steam. In the centre
of the house a chapel has been located and
elegantly fitted up and furnished. The guests
did not come empty handed by any means,
and one room was piled high with
multiplicity of articles left by generous
givers. The visitors were very handsomely
received by members of the society in atten-
dance. Refreshments we're served in the
dining hall. At s 80 o'clock there was
gathering in the spacious parlors of the Home.
Rev. Samuel Upjohn was introduced and
made some very feeling remarks. He referred
to the inception of the Home and its founder,
the late Allan Lambard, and said that it was
designed to be real home for its occupants.
Rev. Walker Gwynne believed that much
credit should be accorded to Rev. Mr.. Up
john for his labors in establishing the Home.
Hon. J. W. Bradbury and DIR. II. II. Hill
followed with very happy remarks. After a
very enjoyable hour spent in sociability and
conversation the visitors departed well pleas
ed with the new home and its warming

.A.sA ~ uA8thoms IOr Lent
The following rules have been promul gated
for the observance Of season Of Lent:
All the days Of Lent, except Sundays, are
fast days of obligation.
BY dispensarion from the holy see, the use
of flesh meat is allowed, once a day only, on
Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Satur-
days-the first and last Saturdays excepted
The use of meat on Sundays is not limited to
the number of times.
Besides lard, the fat rendered from anv
KIND OF meat may be used in preparing food
on any day in Lent. This dispensation is also
extended to the days of abstinence and fast
fast days throughout the year.
At the evening collation., on account of
long existing custom, the church tolerates
the use of eggs, butter, cheese and milk.
The use of flesh meat and fish at the same
meal is not allowed.
The following persons are exempted from
the obligation of fasting All under twenty
one years of age, and those of advanced age !;
the sick; those who cannot fast without grave
injury to their health; women during preg-
macy, or while nursing infants; and all those
whose duties are of laborious or exhausting
nature. Those who are excused from fasting
are not thereby freed from the obligation of
abstaining from flesh meat, except in cases of
sickness or the like.
During the holy season of Lent, which
begins this year on the 9th of February, it
is the archbishop's desire that some special
devotions, such as the Way of the Cross, or
the Rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary, or
Benedction of the Blessed Sacrament with
an occasional sermon, should be provided for
the faithful. Every means should be used to
remind them that it is a time of penance and
prayer, and that unless the heart is free from
sin and the soul sanctified by the worthy re-
ception of the sacraments it will profit them
little to keep the fast of Lent.

State VS.. Henry K. Hopkins.
The act of recognizing for the purposes of
perfecting an appeal from the judgment Of
magistrate. is performed by the connusors
asserting to the wants of the magistrate,
to the effect that they acknowledged them
selves indebted to the State, in a specified
sum to be paid if the appellant fails to ap
pear and prosecute his appeal. brief
minute of the transaction is entered on the
magistrate record, in order that more full
mem ,randum may be written out when want
ed. The memorandum is not the recognz-
ance, though often so called, and is not
signed by the connusors Strictly speaking
it should not be certified as a copy, because,
being merely certificate of an act of par
ty in court. there is no original Of which
it can be said to be copy.
The attestation, though unnecessary.
cannot vitlate the proceeding, and the court
appealed to still has the official certificate of
the magistrate. that the fact therein describ-
ed did occur before him. and the words, "a
true copy attest" may be treated as surplus
age. Martin VS.. Campbell. 100 Mass. l2S.
Exceptions overruled.
Tnh's of Monmouth VS. of Inh's of Leeds.
In process for settling disputed lines
between towns, the acceptance of the report
of the commissioners by the court is not re-
quirei by the statutes and adds nothing to
its force. 1t is still necessary to look to the
report to ascertain whether the alleged con-
troversy is ended by such proceedings. If
ended, in conformity with the provisions Of
the statute a new petition for the same pur-
pose cannot be sustained. If otherwise,
it may be without any reversal of the prior
proceedings.
The statute requires three persons to be
appointed commissioners. This provision is
peremptory and as it relates to pubic
matter the immediate parties to the process
OF either of them canno. waive it,
In this case but two were appointed and in
their report it does not appear that they did
anything under their commission TO ''ascer-
tain the line, but only determined 1t;
whether in conformity with the line establish
ed by the legislature or by themselves does
not appear. From these defects in the report
il does not appear that the controversy as to
the line, if any existed. has been ended and
the prior proceeding presents no obstacle to
receiving the present petition.
Exceptions sustained.
