Archbishop Bayley has issued the usual regulations for Lent to the clergy of the areh- diocese to be announced by them to their re- spective congregations. All Catholics who have completed their twenty-first year must fast unless legiti- mately dispensed, taking but one mealdaily about noon, excepting Sundays, which are bot fastdays. Flesh meatand fish are not to be used at the same meal. allowed in the evening, not to exceed the fourth part of an ordinary meal, at which it is itted to use bread, butter cheese, tegs, all kinds of fruit, salads, vegetables and fish. In the morning some warm liquid, such as tea, coffee, or thin choco- late made with water, and a morsel of bread, is allowed by general usage. Neces- sit, eustom have authorized the use 0g’s lard instead of butter in prepar- permitted food. The use of fiesh meat dispensation at all meals on once a day on Monday, Tues- ay, Thursday and Saturday, with the ex- erplion of Holy Thursday, and the second ard last Saturdays oflent. Persons exempted from fasting are as follows: Persons under twenty-one years of age, the sick, nursing women, all whoare obliged to do hard labor, and all who through weakness cannot fast without great prejacice to their health. The circular states ‘that besides the obligation of fasting imposed by the church, the season of Lent should be a time of earnest prayer, of sorrow for sin, of seclusion from the worl and its amusements, and of generous alins- iving.” Wyn pase al time extends from the first Sunday of Lent till Trinity Sunday, during which €ll Catholics “who have attained the tse of reason” are required to prepare them- selves to receive the communion. Parents are reminded “that Lent fs a proper season ior children to goto their first confession, which y ought to do generally when abont seven yearsof age.” Tight Rev. James Gibbons, bishop of Rich- 1, Bishop Kain, of Wheeling, ani the hop of Wilmington have issued similar regulations. ——_e—— A MUSEMENTS— National Theater.—The Kel- legge opera troupe begin their second engage- meat here lo-night, and their reappearasce me } Will doubtless be creeted with thesame large andierces as before.
