Is SLAVERY AN EVIL!

Is Slavery an evil! Messrs. Fillmore and Stanly
say it is. We deny the proposition. We hold it to
be blessing to both races; and not only this, but
toned by the Almighty. All the authorities in the
Bible the subject in favor Of it, and there is
not one word in that Book against it.
But let grant, for arguments sake, that it is
evils this time for Southern to admit the aet:
If evil, will Mr.. Stanly do any thing to extend it!
to it, 90 what he can, Representative in Con-
gress, hem it in and thus pave the way for getting
rid Of it
If an evil, what right has the President of the
United States so to declare in public letter! He
says in one breath that the institution belongs the
exercise no control over it in the States but in the
next breath he interferes with this institution by
branding it as evil in the sight of Christendom
William H. Seward occupies the very same ground
And now is Mr.. Stanly, holding as he does this
opinion, suitable Representative for the people o
the Eighth District! Let them answer at the polls
We have no fears for the result. The interests o.
that people, involved in this institution, much
too great leave it at all doubtful what their decis
ion will be. They will decide to let Mr.. Stanly re-
main at home, to noralze as often and as long he
chooses over the " evils " of Slavery; and they
will send to Congress his successor man wht
has never deceived any one on this any other ques
ton, and in whose hands their rights and interests
will be perfectly safe.

The Wings Of Ohio held their State Convention
about the first Of this month"; for the purpose of nom
mating State officers. Hon. Samuel F. Vinton was
nominated tor Governor.
Resolutions were adopted re-afirming the Wing
platform of protective Tariff, encouragement to In
ternal Improvements by the General Government, and
recommending Gen. Winfield Scott as the Whig
candidate for the Presidency. The Resolutions fur
ther compliment President Fillmore, and affirm that,
inasmuch as the compromise measures of the last
Congress were not recommended by Wing President
adopted by party vote in Congress, they are not
and cannot be regard party measures, and there.
fore perfect freedom of opinion shall be tolerated
among Wings in reference to them.
So the Ohio Wings have refused to endorse the
compromise measures, and have nomineted Gen
eral Scott for the Presidency. Let these facts be
remembered.
Gen. SCOTS prospects for the Whig nomination are
frightening daily. He is of the support in
vention of Pennsylvania, Ohio and New York-,he
three largest States in the Union. Seward is for him
Will the North Carolina Wing leaders support
