Reported ior HE RECORD.
The Bachelors Club of Lambertville, with
a number of invited guests, celebrated their
sixth anniversary on Saturday evening, the
18th inst, by having grand feast. During
tho evening there were several toasts offered,
and one of the senior members gave a long
history of the Club, stating that it started
with ten members six years ago, but to-day
there were six Of their number married, and
only four who had singly weathered the ups
and downs of this odd world. He was follow
ed by former member, now married, who
stated that he Trad enjoyed himself hugely
while Single member of the Club, and as
there were six Of the former members who
had adopted married life, he hoped the Club
would increase to 500 members. A young
member who had just been initiated stated
that he was surprised to hear these remarks
uttered by that former member. He was ua-
der the impression that those who joined the
Club intended to remain single. He had not
as good an opinion of the Club rs when he was
eujoying the good things on the table. The
statement was contrary to the principles of
The Club. After singing and ;otherrecreations,
the chairman stated that the Club woald ad-
journ, but would assemble again one year
hence, and he hoped that he would not be
grieved BY ha ving to announce further maria
ges among the members as it injured the stated
policy Of the organization. The usual sign
was given and all adjourned.

~ The demand for cut paper patterns, of
the latest and most fashionable designs,
graded to suit all sizes and ages, has so in
creased that a complete and universal sup
ply is necessary. Huff & Swallow are agents
for Frank Leslie's Celebrated Cat Paper Pat
terms, and are ready to supply the demand
The patterns are cut with notches and spefor-
ations to show exactly how the garments
should be put together, where every seam
must be taken, every piait laid, every loop
set, &C. Each pattern is illustrated and fur
nished with such a description as to render the
most complicated easy of adjustment, They
are the cheapest patterns in the market.

RECORDING MARRIAeEs.-By the laws q

RECORDING MARRIAeEs.-By the laws of
this State it is made the duty of every
minister of the Gospel, Justice of the Peace,
or other persons before whom a marriage may
be solemnized, to report it to the County
Clerk that it may be recorded at his office.
The law does not seem to be, generally UNDER
stood and t records are by no means per-
feet. Recently the Rev. Joseph H. Smith,
Rector of st. Paul's Episcopal church,
Newark, on learning Of the, law, brought to
the County Clerks Office list of one hun
dred and seventy marriages solemnized by him
extending over quite u lengthy period. The
law imposes fine of fifty dollars for not
complying with its provisions.
