\ Coon ENAMPIE.-We really do not know
anv gentleman who sets better example to
society than the President, in his walk in life
as a man. No other person in Washington is
more regular in his attendance on divine wor-
ship. He is regularly to be seen in his pew on
Sundays, in the evening we'll as at the ser
vices in the day time. This strict observance
of Christian duty is fully borne out in his in
variable conduct and bearing, it matters not in
what society he may be thrown. Our attention
has been called to these facts by reverend
Christian friend than whom other man among
us is more keenly alive to all passing c;rcun,-
stances which tend either to benefit or to in
jufe society We may not inappropriateIy add
that we never before knew an American Cabinet
to he one and all SO scrupulousIy observant of
the obligations resting on them to set good
examples in their conduct in society n.
Those who believe with us that well ordered
societv-a thoughtful, prudent. and conscien-
| tious society, is exceedingly desirable every
| where, will doubtless, agree with us i'll awarding
to these gentlemen praise for conducting them
selves as gentlemen as though at all times
| membering that i'll their position their example
| as men is likely to have due effect those 10y
whom they are urrounded.-H ashsngton Star

HARDENING THE coNsTITUTIoN.-Men talk about
" hardening the constitution" and with that view
expose themselvee to summers sun and winters
sary hardships To the end, i-nformed moth
ers souse their little infants in cold water day by
day. their skin and flesh and bodies steadily grow
ing rougher and thinner and weaker, until slow fever
or water the brain, consumption of the bow
els carries them to the grave; and then they adj
minister to themselves the semi-comfort and rather
questionable consolation of its being mysterious
dspensaton of Providence when in fact Providence
has nothing to do with it. He works no miracle to
counteract our follies.
The best way we know of hardening the constitu-
ton is take good of it, for its more improv-
ed by harsh treatment than fine garment new

AMOUNT OF STATE TAXES For, 1866.

We are indebted to the polteness of the faithful
and efficient Comptroller of Public Accounts, Mr..
Brooks, for the following list of taxes paid by the
different Counties for 1856, under the revenue
law. We have given also the amounts paid in 1854,
SO that the reader may see at glance the increase
in the different Counties. The aggregate increase,
it will be seen, is $s9325 SO.
The returns from Halifax and Jackson not as
yet entirely correct and the amounts may be slight
~ changed when correct returns are received
Johnston County appears to have fallen back but
this is owing to heavy tax paid by that County
last year on collateral descents.
This large addition to the revenue is owing, in a
considerable degree, to the increased tax on mer-
chants and to the re-assessment of lands.

D1D'NT BELIEVE THE BIBLE.-Before the Recorders
Court, at Chicago, few days since, one Mcleod
about to give testimony upon which the prisoner
would have been convicted of larceny, when the de-
fence objected to his evidence being received, the
ground of his non-belief in the existence of Su-
preme Being. A man named Stewart testified that
he had often heard Mcleod say that he believed the
Bible was pack of lies :; that God had control
over him on this earth; and he deied God to strike
him where he then stood, and said other things of
similar import. A Mrs Henderson had heard con-
versation between Mcleod and others, in which Nc
Leod declared he did not believe in Jesus Christ
that the writers of the Bible lied and that he (Mc-
Leod) had just as much power God himself. He
used to cast the Bible contemptuously the floor,
and said he believed in Heaven but not in He'll An
other witness, little girl, testified to substantially
the same facts. The court decided that Mcleod
came within the rule and was incompetent to be
witness. The case consequently fell to the ground,
and the jury were instructed to render verdict of
not guilty, which they did accordingly.
