The experience Of the past that facts e lAe
present and the aspects Of The future, seem
ed to give emphatic warning to the mem
bers Of the Convention. that the man whom
they should nominate must be one whose
name has seldom been mingled in exciting
party conficts4-who nomination would
awaken no slumbering resentment, and call
to mind no bitter thoughts inherited from
past eventsz~one who has never divided the
State into hostile ranks, and formed between
them gulf impossible from either side
one who is strong in the affections of the
whole people. and for whom any man in the
SIate can vote Such man, we believe the
convention and the people has found in F.
d. RoGKRs He. has earned by his talents
and indispensable integrity and political
consistency a place in the affections of the
wings where he can know no rival, and
where he has nothing to fear.
Weregard the defeat of the Locofoco par
ty at the next election as essential to the
prosperity and honor of the State, and that
it can be effected, we firmly believe, by the
united effort of the Wings. The Wing par
ty of the State forms now, as it always has
formed, the natural antagonists of all reck-
less experiments in legislation, and the ma
tural defender of what experience has shown
to be wise, conservative and safe. Upon
that party. therefore, now deYolves the duty
of presenting a firm, united and unbroken
opposition TO the Democratic party. It
must sacrifice all personal predictions. all
local feelings, all temporary, partial and Sc
condary interests. whatever may be their
nature. upon the altar Of DC State safety.
It must abandohe al private rcsentments,
and set aside everything Bhich may prevent
The cordial, earnest and united exertions
against the opposition factions. These sac
rifces are to be made, and those ends to be
obtained by the Wing party. Let the Wings
but do their duty to their candidates and
to themselves and our success is certain.

WING ExTRAvAGAEcE.--Itapp appears (says the
Richmond Whig) that there will be some
twenty three millions surplus in the treasury on
the 1st of July. This isthe prosperous condi-
ton Wing Administration leaves the coun.
try in; yet we everlastingly hear democracy
prating over wing extravaganza about election
times, and telling the dear people that the wings
are not fit to be entrusted with the public moE-
ey. When did ever a Democratic Administra-
ton leave surplus in the treasury! On the
other hand, they have always left exhausted
Golfers and an accumulated debt. Already the
organs of the party are setting to work to de-
wise some plan to spend the surplus left by the
wings. AS Tie estensible means of making way
with it, some Of them propose to plunge the
country headlong into another war. The peo-
pie need give themselves no concern about the
disposition of this surplus. A democratic Ad-
uinistration can spend it.

Important Facts.

The New York Courier & Enquirer gives
some important and useful facts relative to the
comparative conditions of the blacks in the de
verse sections of The Union. The citation OF
such facts is sign thu the Northern people
are beginning to investigate the subject without
prejudice. But Of late the abolitionists have
run to such excesses--have warred SO openly
against law and gospel-against everything
which ordinarily decent men consider sacred
that even then own sane associates must feel
great apprehension as to the result.
The Courier says that 'in Massachusetts
about one-sixth of the whole number of con-
victs in the State prison are blacks, and yet
the blacks form but one-seventy-four part Of
the population. In Connecticut orethird OF
the eonYicts are blacks, and yet the blacks
form but one-thirty fourth part Of the popula-
ton. In New York one fourth part of the con-
victs are blacks, and yet the blacks form but
one thirty-fifth part of the popalation. In New
Jersey the proportion of black conyicts is one
third: of population one-thirteenth. In Penn
sylvania, the proportion of black convicts is
one-third: of population one-thirty-fourth.
About one-quarter Of all expense incurred by
these States for the support of persons, is Tor
colored convicts."
Another writer thinks that in the physical
condition of the slaves, there is snrer means
of judging. All political economists hold that
the best criterion Of the prosperity Of any peo-
pie is is growth in population. Man multiplies
as the comforts Of life increase. Tied BY the
conclusive test, the physical well being Of the
slaves of the Soulll i made strikingly manifest
Their increase from 1910 to 1850, as shown BY
the last census, was t,Repty-nine and three
tenths per cent n England for the same
period, the rate of increase was but twelve per
cent. In Ireland there was positive decrease
of twenty per cent In France there was an
increaseOf but four and haIf per cant. In.
Prussia 0f only ten per cent. In Russia Of
about twelve FER cent. In Mexico one-sepenth;
and in Jamaica il las positively decreased.
The faet IS nnqnestionalIe attested equally by
statistical dedpeiipn md 81 individual observa-
ton, that the slaves Of the south are the most
comfortable and the hapIlest laboring popuIa-
ion il the world, the white laboring popula-
ton Of our own country excepted
