The Religion Of Paying Debts.-One of our
religious exchanges has the following strong re-.
marks on this subject. They drive the nail in to
the head and clnch it:
"Men may sophisticate as they please. They
can never make it right, and all the bankrupt
laws in the universe cannot make it right for
them not to pay their debts. There is q sin in
this neglect as clear and as deserving church
discipline as in stealing or false swearing. He
who violates his promise to pay, or withholds
the payment of debt when it is in his power
to meet his engagement, ought to be made to
feel that in the sight of all honest men he is a
swindler. Religion may be very comfortable
cloak under which to hide, but if religion does
not make man deal justly, it is not worth
having"

I'M. GODDARD has arrived at the acme of Rro-
nautis achievement in Paris. He has come
down in parachute on horseback! Two years
ago to 60 up Oh horseback was marvel. The
parachute was immense and the cords extending
from its edges to the frame work that sustained
the horse, were hundred feet long The
umbrella was, by some coutrivanee, opened
before the cord of connection with the balloon
was cut in order to avoid, under the peculiar cir
cumstances of the descent, the rapid fall that
ensues till the silk unfurls The aronautab above,
his brother, let him off at the height of mile;
the descent was easy and gentle.

Precocious.--A Texas paper furnishes the
following:
A good deal has been said of late about the
precocity of American youth! but all that we
have seen of them is completely outstripped by
Mexican "boy" of San Antonio. He attempt
ed to give in his vote at the late election, but
from his youthful appearance his vote was chal-
lenged, and it was proven on oath that he was
but l3 years of age. The Ledger says that he
has wife, and child one year old, and for the
sake of gratifying curiosity, the editor of that
paper was led to consult physician on the sub.
ject, and was assured that this "boy" could not
have been exceeding eleven years at the time of
his marriage.

EARLY RISING REQUIRED WILL. In the will
of the late Mr. James Sergeant of Leicester is the
following clause:
GAS my nephews are fond of indulging themselves
in bed in morning. and as wish to prove to the
satisfaction of my executors that they have got out
of bed in the morning, and either employed them
selves in business, taken exercise in the open air.
from five till eight o'clock every morning, from the
9Th of April the 10th of October being three hours
each day; and from seven till nine o'clock in the
morning from the 10th of October to the 9th of April
being two hours every morning; this is to be done
for years. during the first seven years, to the
satisfaction of my executors, who may excuse them
in case of Illness but the task must be made up when
they we'll and if they will not do this, they shall
not receive any share of my property. Temperance
makes the faculties clear and exercise makes them
vigorous. 1t is temperance and exercise united that
alone insure the fttest state for mental or bodily
exertion."

We acknowledge the receipt from the publisher,
W D. Cooke Of copy of the Revolutionary History
compare favorably with any work done at the North;
ir fact the execution is beautiful addition to
the History of the State. These compilations are in
valuable. The researches of men so learned as
Hawks, Swain and Graham, could not fail to disen-
tomb from the records of the past evidence enough
to place North Carolina first in the ranks of patriot
ism, and to bring to light facts for the establishment
of her claims which her supneness had permitted to
be in darkness.
The compilation contains the Lectures of Rev. F.
L. Hawks, D. D., LII. D., before the Historical Soci
ETY. of New York having for its subject the Mecklen-
burg Declaration of Independence. The lectures Of
Hon. D. L. Swain, L. D., before the Historical So
ciety of the University of North Carolina, the SUBJ
ject the British invasion of North Carolina, and the
lecture of Hon. w. A. Graham LII. D., before the
Historical Society Of New York upon the same SUBJ
ject to which, is prefixed account of the battle
of Alamance The work is prettily illustrated with
Engravings, and should command an extensive SALE

OUR SUBSCRIPTION LIST.

Various unfounded rumors having been put in cir
ation in relation to subscription list, we deem
due to our friends to state the facts
During the last three weeks, ending on Wednes-
day the 18th, we had lost just forty and received
brty-six new subscribers This includes discontin-
uances and new subscriptions from all quarters. We
have also received most encouraging letters from
friends in various parts of the State, coupled with
,surances that our list shall be materially increased
friend, for example, writes as follows from Hall
fax County:
"I requested the Postmaster at this place to write
YOU to discontinue the Weekly Standard, because
received it so irregularly; but for fear you might
think that disapproved your in the late cam
paign in the Raleigh District, now, by way of en-
dorsing your course, send you what is due the
Weekly, which is $4 and 81 in advance for the Semi
Weekly. So long as you stand upon Democratic
principles you need not fear, for the Democracy will
sustain you"
This is one letter out of many which we have re-
ceived of similar character. Another friend writes
frng to obtain others to make up the loss.
What we say to one we say to all-our list is in
easng, and our business is better now than it has
ever been before. The threat to break us down has
expended itself in thin air. Our equanimity has not
been in the slightest degree disturbed; we stand on
principle, and fear nothing We hope, for the good
of the cause to add to list by hundreds during
the approaching Fall and Winter. Give five thou
sand subscribers, and we will promise in return to
show some good results from our labors in the cam
paign of 1854.

ANDREW Johnson.

This distinguished man, a native of this City, has
been elected Governor of Tennessee by more than
three thousand majority. His majority in Greene,
the County of his residence, was 1,o13-four hun
dred and eighty more than Gen. Pierce received.
"We have returns, says the Nashville Union, of the
10th inst "but from about twothrds of the vote of
the State, yet enough to know that Andrew johnson
has been chosen Governor of Tennessee by major
ity of more than three thousand the largest major
iy any candidate has received for the Office in ten
years. He has achieved this unparalleled victory
over the most splendid orator and popular man of
his opponents, against the combined assaults of the
whig press and the whig speakers, and with but
lukewarm support from many of his own political
associates. Never were the wings more confident of
success while the democracy disheartened by sue
cesson of defeats looked upon the contest as almost
hopeless"

W The Goldsborough Republican and Patriot
offers the following sound advice to the democracy
of this District:
Our success in the late election has been fatter-
ing to the extreme if except the Fourth District
where dissensions worked defeat and only remains
now for every Democrat to stand firm to the princ
pies of the party set forth in the Baltimore plat
form, and we will come in the field next August with
augmented forces and prepared to achieve victory
1t need not-it caunot, be concealed, that our oppo
nents exultng in dissensons are looking to them
as the cause of defeat in the next campaign and
are vainly we trust, looking forward to cheap and
an easy conquest In this they will certainly be disap
pointed if principle continue the guiding star in
party. In the late contest, through which we have
passed, we may easily learn that Democratic princi-
pies still in the ascendency in the State and that
we have nothing to fear from general engagement
with the enemy, at any future time. The Raleigh
District will, we hope lay aside their family dssen-
sions and become united What is past among them
is deeply to be regretted but cannot be recalled. If
the question of distribution was made test in that
District tomorrow, We have every to believe
that the Democrats, to man, would vote against it
On this subject then let all unite and the COM
bined forces of the enemy WILL in vain essay de-
feat"
