CrnTIFIED BANK CHEcKs.--A subscriber to the
New York Journal of Commerce puts the following
question to that paper:
ga draws a check on the City Bank to the order
of b. and the bank certifies the check to be good.
buys the check, and remits 1t to a western city
About seven months have expired, and nothing has
ever been heard Of it, has it ever been present-
ed to the bank for payment. A fails IN business,
in the mean time, owing the bank; and the bank
supposing the check to be lost, claims the right to
place the amount of said check to the credit OF A.
Is the position of the bank correct!"
To which the Journal Of Commerce makes the iol-
lowing reply:
"When a bank certi6es check to be good, the
obligation to pay il 10 transferred from the drawer
to the bank; and the latter ia much bound TO pay
it, whenever presented by bona tide holder, as to
paw one of its own notea. If the check 10 lost or
inislad, the amount may be recovered OF the bank
upon sufficient proof and surety, in the same man
ner as upon lost bank note If the original drawer
of the check should, in its absence, claim the
amount as due him from the bank, proof OF the GER
tificate having been issued by the bank will be a
sufficient bar to his recovery"

Journal says:
'sMany persons who have got out their wheat
cav that it yielded considerably more than they an
ticipated at the time of reaping. One gentleman,
who sowed sixty bushels, and calculated upon max
ing seven hundred bushels, after measuring, finds
that he has made over nine hundred. Another,
who estimated his crop at five thousand bushels,
finds that he was under the mark by nearly one
thousand bushels In every instance where the
crop has been measured the turn out has been far
better than was anticipated, and what is still better,
the quality of the grain is unusually fine.
s'Since our last issue we have had glorious
rain. which has been general. The earth has been
Thoroughly wetted. The late corn and potatoes
will be much benefited; vegetation has greatly re-
vived. Previous to this rain the ground was SO
hard as to make ploughing difficult.
.sThe approaching fair of our county Agricul-
tural Society will be grand affair. The commit
tees are industrously engaged in perfecting the
arrangements. We expect to see in Rockville on
that occasion such crowd as was never witnessed
in our town before"
