es are happy ones. One thing at least
is true, that ifmatrimony has its cares,
celibaey has no pleasures. A New.
ton, or a mere scholar, may find EN-.
ployment in study; man Of literary
taste can receive in books a powerful
auxiliary; but man must have a bo-
som friend, and children around him,
to cherish and support the dreariness
of old age. Do YOU remember A. VI

From the Investigator printed at
Canonloharie, New York, we learn
that at the Circuit Court of this state,
which sat last week at Johnstown, in
the county Of Montgomery, aquestion

Court to compel the officers of a Bank
to produce their books in Court. Judge
Cowen decided that certified copy OF
a record of the bank books would be
good evidence; but that an incorpora-
ted body could mol be compelled 10 bring
their bookS into Court.

would have surprised us, but in
