FRIDAY EVENING, JULY 31, 1846.
FOR GOVERNOR, Li
WUliam A. I GrahainL
OF ORANGE COUNTY, ;
Shepard has placed himself in a position,
on the subject of the Rail Road, fairly ad
mitting his veracity to be questioned. In
thedebate between himself and Gov. Gra
ham, at:Asneville,'he said that he had vo
ted; in ConventionJo-amX the recommen
dation for the State endorsement of bonds
for the Raleigh and Gaston Rail Road. -
About the, time he made this denial the
italeigh Register charged him of voting
for said recommendation. Mr. Shepard
was a delegate in the Convention from
the city of Raleigh, which city was most
deeply interested in the success of the Ra
leigh and fiaston Road. Mr. S. was him
self known to feel a great interest in the
' matter, and it is not at all probable that
the people of Raleigh would have sent a
man to that Convention who was so op
posed to their especial interest. We think
it behooves Mr. Shepard to prove that he
voted against the above recommendation
j certainly, under the circumstances, he
cannot expect that the people will be sat-
THE TARIFF BILL MR. WEBSTER'S
1 CALCULATION. I
Mr. Wkbstek read the following statement
to the Senate on the 16ih inst. The object, he
said, of the Tariff bill was to raise 829,006,X)0
for the service of the year by duties on imports.
It is proposed to raise this amount by ad zaio.
rem duties entirely. These '-duties are arrang
ed by the bill into clauses, being charged re

The average of these, according to the com
mittee of Finance, is 23 J percent. The ques-
'tion, therefore, is what we may justly expect
with an importation this year, as at; that aver
aee the year will Yield a revenue of $23,000,

place, be brought to the amount of, last year's

It is said the free list will be diminished by
transferring several articles to the dutiable lists.
But the main articles still remain free under
this bill. Tea and coffee and specie are .not
taxed, and the value of these imports last year
was 815,914,649. ' Deduct this from the aggre.
