SHEPARD. Th course pursued by the "Standard" to wards Mr. Sliepard exhibits, on the part ol that paper,, a malignity as poisonous as that of a moccasin in dog-days. Its bitterness and malevolence involve not only studied misrepre sentation, but, it is said also, thit crime, gen e rally so regarded among men, that no one was ever vet known to confess to it we mean the crime of ingratitude. The leader in the last "Standard," coupling Mr. Shepard's name with "Internal Improve ments, the Revenue Law," &c, caps the climax of audacity and meanness. In reading the ar ticle, we know not which we were most struck with, the slanderous misrepresentation of Mr. Shepard, in trying to detract from him, or the bare-faced impudence of seeking to claim credit for Mr. Branch, or account of his coarse in re gard to the same. It is false, that Mr. She pard has tried to make political capital, by lug ging internal improvements, and the revenue bill of the last Session, into the canvass. The out of the Democratic party such men as She pard, otWake, and others. Mr. Sliepard is a far better Democrat than any of them. And although we have no particular fancy for De mocracy, yet if we must have a Democrat, we prefer an honest one on principle to a dishonest one on policy ! Nothing that is marked out by the course of political events, in this country, at the present time, is pWiner thin that upon the A- merican party, and on that alone, oan the South rely for the preservation of its constitutional rights, against the current of abolition fanati cism, pandered to as it is by the Foreign and Romislspoils hunters of party. Abolitionism, like every other spirit of evil, is energetic, un. , scrupulous, and untiring. Like the foreign ele' meat and the Romish hierarchy.it haseven been ready to trade with any party in the country, with which it could drive the best bargain. Whilst the two old parties were in active existence, it huckstered with the one or the other, as would STATE ELECTIONS. Alabama, Arkansas, Iowa, Kentucky, Mia ouri and Texas, hold their elections on the first Monday in August ; Tennessee and North Car olina on the first Thursday of the same month. On the second Monday in September, th elec tion in Maine occurs, and that of Vermont on the first Tuesday of the same month. In Ala bama, Kentucky, Texas, North Carolina and Tennessee, members of Congress are to he elected. Foreign and Romish side of the question, by lugging in Mr. Shepard's course on these sub jects, years ago, when he, and Mr. Branch, and most of the leading men of the party, to which they both belonged, took the same ground of opposition to internal improvements, and to taxes for their support. Mr. Shepard has al luded to these questions in self-defence only, by way of explanation, when assailed by the min Lms of Foreignism and Roman Catholicism. Behold the littleness and double dealing of the "Standard," in publishing the resolution of fered by Mr. Shepard in the Democratic Con tention of 1848 1 That was Democratic doc trine when Mr. Shepard offered it and the Grand Ratification Meeting at Nashvills, "Standard" now refers to it for the purpose of Tsnn.

Senate from Ohio and by a like corrupt bar Esq., and resolutions were passed endorsing the Philadelphia Platform. The Nashville Banner says : "The meetine was the largest we have seen since the present canvass commenced, while the epirit that animated the thousands who were present afforded a sure prognostic of a trium phant victory in August. We have not for years seen such a spirit abroad in our land. Never before, during the pending of any of our State elections, have we kaown the people to resort in such vast crowds to the places appointed for public speaking. Even the ladies have begun to turn out in large numbers. Hundreds of them were in attendance at the American cele bration on Wednesday. Then, the interest these mighty gatherings take in the discussion of the great question of the day, the earnestness with which they press around the speaker's stand,, and with which they listen for hours at a time with the deepest attention, are truly wonderful. They seem never to tire of listening. "Not con tent with the four speeches which had been made during the day at the grove, the "Ameri cans" assembled, without previous notice, but spontaneously as it were, in considerable num bers, after night, at the upper end of the Market House, where they heard stirring speeches from Mr. Uatton, of Lebanon, Mr. Colyar, of Win chester, and others. "If the same epirit that is at work here, and in the counties round about, exists in the other Divisions of the State, Gentry's majority in Au gust will be counted by thousands. I We are authorized to announce that the Hon. Kenkxts Katnsr, by invitation, will ad dress the people of Franklin county, at Frank linton, on Monday next, the 16th, at 11 o'clock, in defeuoe of the principles of the American party, and in vindication of himself front the assaults made upon him in connection with his coarse in the State Convention of 1835, and the late Philadelphia Convention. It is understood that Mr. Branch, or some one for him, will reply to Mr. Ratner. NEWS ITEMS OF THE DAY. State Bonds For Sale. The Public Trea surer advertises, in another column, the sale of the following Bonds, issued by the State of North Carolina, viz : $90,000, dated Jan. 1, 1855, running thirty years ; $15,000, dated July 1, 1855, running thirty years ; $5,000, dated Jnly 1, 55, running twenty years ; and $129, 000, dated Jnly 1, 1855, running ten years, in all $239,000. Erratum. In the article in oar last, headed the "Beginning of the end," we alluded to a dis cussion between Messrs. Shepard and Branch, in Nash, in which the Internal Improvement question was brought up. The discussion re ferred to took place in the edge of Franklin, bordering on Nash, a large number of persons from the latter county, however, being present. We make this correction to prevent any quib bling upon the part of the opposition. ject is to prejudice Whigs against him. The charge of the "Standard," that Mr. S. denounced the Democratic party of the last Legislature for passing a revenue bill, is wholly untrue, and the Editor of the "Standard does not believe it, when he asserts it although he may have been so informed by some of the gossiping news mongers, who trot to his office daily and hourly to retail slanders against honest men. It is Mr. Shepard that has been assailed, be cause of his want of zeal in behalf of internal improvements, many years since, when it was the creed of his party to be opposed to the sys tem. By way of defence, he speaks of his dread f of high taxes, and refers to the revenue bill of the last session, as Bome realization of his fears. This, in explanation, is what the "Standard" calls "denouncing the Democratic party." But w is not this covert attempt to bolster up Mr. Branch as an internal improvement man the very ne plus ultra of impudence itself? What has Mr. Branch ever done for internal improve ments in this State except to pocket thousands of dollars as President of the Raleigh and Gas ton Rail Road T What public service did he ever perform what sacrifices has he ever made what evidence has he ever given of being in favor of internal improvements, except to pocket the aforesaid perquisites of office ? We well recollect how his appointment, as President of the Raleigh & Gaston Road, merely as the re ward of partisan service was regarded in this community. Others had lost their money, exert ed their energies, spent their time, incurred odium, in building the road in the first instance, and in resuscitating it, when it was prostrate. But no sooner was it revived, and offices were to be bestowed, than forth comes Mr. Braneb, as the protege of the "Standard," a candidate for the office of President ! ' And who was Mr. Branch' ? What, we repeat, had he done or said or written to entitle him to the place ? What claims did he present? None whatever, except his be ine a bitter and unrelenting partisan. He c, - had, in fact, just become a eitizen of the State. He was not identified with the road or the com munity, "beyond the small amount of stock ne cessary to make him a Director. His appoint ment as Director, and election as President, was a purely party arrangement, in defiance of the wishes or interests of those who had spent their means, and incurred sacrifices for years, in be half of the road. And now, forsooth, after having reaped the profits of the office, he is to be white washed and paraded throagh the Counties of the District, where internal improvements are popular, as a real, Simon pure, internal improve ment man ! Suppose internal improvements were as unpopular as they are now popular, gain, abolition and Democracy sent Chase to the Senate from Ohio, and Stunner from Mas sachusetts. Owing to the rivalry of the two old parties, and their great anxiety to hold political power, abolitionism, holding the balance, has from time to time stepped in and controlled the pol icy of both. This fell spirit of fanaticism had effectually abolitionized both the Whig and Dem ocratic parties of the North. Douglass, in his speech at Chicago, explaining to his consituents his reasons for introducing the Kansas bill, stated that his purpose was, by destroying the Missouri compromise of 1820, to enable Con gress to prevent the organization of any more slave States, South of 36 degrees o0 minutes Thus, this very Kansas bill, which Douglass' friends at the South pretended was for the ben efit and protection of Southern rights, was, by way of pandering to Northern fanaticism, para ded at the North as an anti slavery measure. And whilst Douglass was describing it as an anti sla very movement at the North, the "Standard," in piping its imitation of the cuckoo note of the Washington Union and Richmond Enqui rer, was denouncing every Southern man as a traitor, who dared express his opinion against the policy of the bill. And so, in regard to most of the questions that have agitated the country for the last ten years. The spoilsmen and party-tricksters, who have been trafficking on the most vital in terests of the-Country, have represented them one way at the North, and another at the South. They have done this to keep terms with their abolition co workers at the North. This is the course the "Standard" and its abolition allies are now pursuing towards the American party That paper and its Northern comrades un derstand each other perfectly. The game is to denounce Americanism at the North as pro. slavery in its tendencies. This is to conciliate the anti slavery sentiment of that section. On the other hand, to denounce it as anti-slavery in the South. This is to alarm the sensitive ness of Southern men in regard to their pecu liar rights and interests ! We propose to enlarge upon this subject in our next. Russian Engineers. The French officers con-1 fesa that the engineers in the Russian army are equal to any in Europe. Their army in the Crimea ia said to composed of their finest troops, and their riflemen to be "dead shots." Search,' Seizure and Destruction. The Saratoga Republican of the 5th says : No at tention was paid here yesterday to the search and seizure clause of the Prohibitory Liquor Law ; but the 'destruction' portion of the euact ment was most rigidly obeyed." According to Austrian advioes, about 22 Rus sian ships, steamboats, gunboats and transports have succeeded in eluding the English cruisers in the Sea, of Azof, and are safely moored in the mouth of the Don. It is stated that the Russians feel satisfied that a want of success on the' part of the Allies for one month longer will bring about au alliance between Russia, Austria and Prussia, in fact a new holy alliance formed against the "revolu tionary, infidel West." There have been seventeen deaths in Lexing- ington, Ky., from cholera, since the 29th ult. Ten of the cases were colored. - A colored man, formerly owned by the Hon. Howell Cobb, of Georgia, arrived at Detroit on the 3d by underground railway. Gen. Quitman has declined a nomination for the Mississippi State Senate. Ripe peaches from Indiana are selling in Cincinnati. In Norfolk, during June, there were thirty- five deaths, including 13 colored and 22 whites. A good joke is told at the expense of Mayor nail, of Brooklyn. His honor had given out that he intended to enforce the liquor law at all hazards on the 4th. nis first official act on the morning of that day was to review the mili tary, and the occasion was one offering an ex cellent opportunity to do what he promised the soldiers, as they filed paBt the Mayor, taking out a whiskey bottle, and taking a horn, right under his eyes! People who wanted to see whether the police would be called upon to ar rest the military, it is needless to add, went away disappointed I Telegraphic Connections. By June 1858, there is but little doubt now that New York will be annexed by Telegraph with London, and with all the great Capitals of the world. Connection with St. John s and Newfoundland is expected by September. Efforts are making to induce the Collins line of steamers to land there after that time. !

The American steam ship Pacific arrived here this morning at 6 o' clock, with Liverpool and London dates to Sat urday the 30th ult. The news by this arrival, from the seat of hostilities, consists wholly of the details ot the recent repulse ot the allies by the Russians. The total loss of the allies on the loth was over 5,000 men ; but the army was nevertheless in good spirits, and preparing for another assault. The English and French reciprocally blame each other for the disasters at Sebastopol. ine allies retain possession of the Round tower, the Cemeteries, and the Mamelon. ine cholera bad appeared among the French troops. UoTtschakofir s despatches state that the allies7 fire had weakened, and that the allied troops, which crossed the river. Tchernaya, had returned.

APPONTMENTS BY BISHOP ATKINSON. 29 July August A correspondent of the New Yorf "Her ald," writing from Oxford, in this State, says : "Thore is a little excitement in political circles here now, by information received from Vir ginia, that Mr. Wise is to make an electioneer ing tour through North Carolina. If he does, I can assure him beforehand that he will find one man who will "milk" out all the eloquence the cloud capped mountains of the Old Domin ion ever "milked" into him. I only wish him to meet Henry W. Miller, or Edwin G. Reade ; after one or two speeches, I think he would get hoarse, and conclude to retire to the Sulphur Springs in his own State to recuperate." A correspondent of the " Standard gives an account of the Hon. Thomas Ruffin's speech at a place called Pleasant Mount, on the 27th ult., and states that that gentleman was in fine spirit. , Doubtless, as he. had no known opposition at the time I , We invite attention to the advertisement of the "American Farmer," in another column There was an error in it, as published in our last. The terms of the proprietors for purchas ing, marking and shipping Guano, are only $ per ton, and not $4, as printed. upposc the system had failed in North Caro lina, despite all the efforts of the public-spirited men of the State does any one think the Edi tor of the "Standard," and the other leaders of the Foreign party, would have been prating about internal improvements ? No, they would have sworn, till they were as black outside as they are unsound inside, that Mr. Branch never was an internal improvement man and that he took the office of President of the Raleigh & Gaston Rail Road, to prevent the place being filled by some one who was in favor of it ! It is amusing to see how hard the "Standard" is trying to mislead the honest and credulous Democrats of the District, by pretending that the emissaries and toadies of Foieignism and Romanism are the Democratic party.. They the Democratic party, indeed ! Jnst about as much the Democratic party, as was the jack daw that strutted in stolen plumes a veritable peacock. Mr. Rayner spoke truly, the otber night, when he said that these men might put on the lion's skin, thinking thereby to hide the length of their ears, aiid to frighten the unwary ; but every time they opened their mouths, the braying of the ass betrayed their true character. Who is the Chairman of the Foreign and Romish Junto in Raleigh ? A renegade Whig. Who is American meeting in Charlotte. The A- merican party of Mecklenburg held a large rat ification meeting on the 5th instant. Able speeches were delivered by Messrs. Wm. John ston, V. C. Barringer, Gen- Young, A. Brevard, and S J. Lowrie. The "Whig" promises a short synopsis of Mr. Barringer's very able ad dress. It contained a very large amount of eta tiatical information, which it is desirable to have disseminated among the people. Whilst Mr. Lowrie was making some allusion to the practices of the Roman Church, an Irish man in the crowd called him a liar several times, At length Mr. L. turned upon him, says the "Whig," with a flood of indignanteloquence, and pointed to him as a fair illustration of wbat he was there trying to prove the tyranny and pro scriptive policy of that Church. This was a land of liberty and free speech, but it was denied to him here by an Irish Roman Catholic 1 The whole house thundered applauses upon the speaker and scorn and indignation upon the interrupter. The folowing preamble and resolutions were adopted as a part of the proceedings of the meeting : Whereas, the National Convention of the American party recently assembled at Phila delphia, after a full and mature consideration of the various conflicting elements of former political organizations, did adopt and promul- gate a piattorm ot principles ana purposes clear, distinct, American and national ; there fore, Be it Resowed: I hat we, the American par ty of Mecklenburg County, Worth Carolina, In ing in the birth place of American Indepen dence, at a public meeting, held at Charlotte, on this the 5th of July, A. D. 18)5, do cordial ly approve of, ratify and adopt the same. Be it further Resolved: That the thanks of the American party of this county be, and they are hereby tendered to our delegates to the Na tional Council for their able and faithful dis charge of the duties assigned them. We shall select some of the letters written to the Committee of Invitation for publication at a future day. We learn from Brownlow's Knoxville Whig that a biography of the late Hugh Lawson White will be issued from the press in course of the coming Fall or Winter. The work will be from the pen of his grand daughter, Miss iNancy N. acott, of Knoxville. The Turner Riot at Columbus, Ohio. The following dispatch, dated Columbus, Ohio, July 7, which we find in the Cincinnati papers, shows conclusively who were the aggressors in the re cent riot at Columbus : "The Coroner's J ury in the case of riot here on the 4th inst , found Gottleib Mayer guilty of Murder in the first degree, and all the .turners in the, procession guilty of being accessory to the murder. They number seventy-three. Foreign Fruit in New York. The N. Y. Journal of Commerce says the market is glntted with West India fruit. Fifteen vessels laden with pine apples, bananas and cocoa nuts, lie at the piers, and have on board, of pine apples alone, about 100,000 dozen, while large quanti ties have already been sold. Prices range at from 2J to 8 cte. Probably the market was never before so abundantly supplied. Singular Coincidence. It is a Tiote-wqrthy fact, that the unsuccessful assault on the part of the allies at Svbastopol was made on the 18th of June, the anniversary of the battle of Water loo. The intention was, doubtless, to obscure the memory of Waterloo, id a more brilliant and fraternal victory, and electrify the Britisb and rrench nations ; but it was no go. Uses Up. A man got up the other night, and took, as he supposed, a card of matches, and began-to break them off one by one, trying to light a lamp, until the whole card was used up, without accomplishing bis object, when he dis covered he had used up his wife s oomb. The Charleston News seems disposed to ac eept the American Platform, as adopted in Phil adelphia. The editor says "Bat it is not true that the American platform will not command the support of true men in the great Middle States. It has already the largest strength over any other in New To rk, Pennsylvania, Dela ware, New Jersey ana probably Ohio. Its strength at the South is rapidly being assured." The Mobile Tribune says new Four is selling there at $5 per barrel, and confidently predicts that in 3 weeks it will be sold for $3 50 per barrel. It is stated that nearly all the branches of the Bonaparte family will in a very short time be assembled in Paris, round the Emperor Napo leon III, who desires that the several persons bearing his name should form, as it were, aaw ceau near him. Correspondence of the New York Herald. Savannah, Ga., June 21, 1855. Sentiments of the Philadelphia Convention How they Progress Chances of Candidates. As a consequence, the truly- patriotic and conservative platform of principles laid down by the national council of Know Nothings, at their recent convocation in Philadelphia, meets with the warmest and mo6t enthusiastic appro val amongst the Uuion loving and abolition hating men of Georgia. With such a platform and a candidate standing thereupon, who is a practical, sensible, and fresh from the people man, no fears need be entertained as to bow the Empire State of the South will cast her vote. Our people have very naturally become dis gusted with the speculating, old fogy politicians, who have so long a period of time controlled the politics of Georgia one day here and the noxt day there, on the great questions ol the day.- Hence the recent denunciation of the new and Dowerful American or Know Nothing partv bv Bob Toombs, Alex. Stephens, Gov. McDonald, Gov. Johnson and Charles J. Jenkins was to be expected, and is a source of great exultation to the new men who form the American party. Don t be surprised if at the Uctooer election Stephens is found laid uptodry on the same shelf with Her8chel T.Johnson and such others of the old stock as will have the presumption to give Sam a tussle before the people. Who wil be the opponent of Stephens 1 nave not yet earned, but baniuel will in due season trot out Borne fast nag that will take down Alex, to the tune of a thousand or twelve hundred votes. Gov. Johnston will probably be opposed by Judge Nesbit, of Macon, who will most certain- v distance the Governor with ease, as will be decided by the judges. NORTH CAROLINA SIX PER CENT. STATU BONDS.

We have received a lengthy communi cation from a staunch Warren Democrat, (that was,) giving a fluttering account of Mr. Shkpards recent visit to that county. It shall appear in our next. Post Office Waste Paper. The Postmas ter General has issued the following order to correct the "waste paper" delinquencies of the post offices recently made public : "It shall be the doty of the postmaster, or of one of his assistants, in all cases, immediately before the office is swept or otherwise cleared of rubbish, to collect and examine the waste paper, which has accumulated therein, in order to guard against the possibility of loss of letters or other mail matter, which may have fallen on the floor, or have been intermingled with such waste paper duriug the transaction of business. The observance of this rule is strictly enjoined upon all postmasters, and its violation will con stitute a grave offence. Postmasters mast be careful to use, in mailing letters or packets, all wrapping paper fit to be used again : and the sale of any such paper is strictly forbidden by the regulations ot the department. Excommunicated. A correspondent of the Newark Advertiser says that the ministers and members of Parliament, who voted for the sup nression and confiscation of the Sardinian Mon asteries, are exoommunicated under chapter 1 XI. of the Council of Trent, without a special Bull, and that they cannot receive the sacra' rash and illegal orders of Mayor Djw, leaving it to the courts to determine whether the Mayor is guilty of manslaughter or murder.

" "The Custom House rats, or Administration Softs, are looking, as the ship is sinking, for some new lodgings, where snug quarters will be furnished, and good cheer provided, at treasu ry prices," &c., &c. When we abuse the Democratic party, our op ponents say that it springs from prejudice. What can they reply when we point them to the action of Dickinson, ' Uronson, Donelson, and hosts, yes ! hosts of independent National Democrats, who ill unite in condemning this feeble, wicked, yet spiritless Administration mu Herald, Canal or the Danville Railroad, accompanied by proper instructions for feeding and management ; Dut in no case will we be liable for accidents.
