SLAVERY PHILANTHROPY.

According to their Own showing there are no
such philanthropists as slave drivers. But for
them the three millions or more of Africans now
in this country would still be sunk in the lowest
bestialiiy, without any of those blessings Of civ
ilization and Christianity which they now enjoy.
1t lie true that many slave proprietors, Of class
in " hose opinion confidence would naturally be
felt, and especially every thoughtful woman who
has grown up among slaves and knows the inst-
tuition thoroughly, will admit that it is not only
full of evils, bit most Involvement and burden
some to the whites still others who incline to a
more mpartiay view Ofthe subject, cay, indeed that
Slavery is blessing to both parties. Among the
latter we may name The Richmond E1eminer,
which AYERS that "by enslaying negroes and i'm.
"portiDg them to perform the mental offices OF
society, We confer blessing upon them; nay,
ION the whites themselves, by obviatiDg the ne
"cessity of enslaving any Of their own race who
care fitted to enjoy municipal liberty" But
there are few among the apolcgists for Slavery
who go to such extreme lengths. All of them
agree, however, that for the enslaved the insti-
tuition is all immense benefacton anu accordingly
the whites can reflect that whateyert costs them,
all that they suffer is for the good OF these poor
negroes, who canno. help themselves and who
need owners and Oyerseers 10 practice self sacri-
fee in their behalf. In this view Slavery become.
TRANSPORTED and endowed with Incompatible
loveness its Haleys and Tom Lockers appear as
the agents of Christian love, and it, Legrees get
moral halos around their otherwise yillainous
and revolving heads Even the tumble-down, de-
caying old towns, and weedy, WORKOUT pianta-
tons of Virginia and Maryland acquire title to
our respect and admiration. They are desola,e,
10 doubt, but that dresry bsrrenress only testi-
fees that they have been devoted to humane and
generous ends and have persisted in the elevation
and improvement Of the brutal, besotted and
hopeless black. And instead of blaming the
slave breeders Of those States for raising stock
for market and even selling of child OF their
own now ard then, We ought rather to applaud
their enterprispg philanthropy. II is all benev
olence all disinterestedness, all selfmcrifce and
noble devotion.

NETWORK STATE FAIR.

The Fair closed last evening. We give the premium
LIST in another column. The number of visitors wa.
larger at one time than the day before though the
number Of single tickets sold did not quite equal
Thursday, being yesterday about 1900. There were
also more city people and great many ladies. We
counted at time around the north gate $50 private
carriages and bugges. The horses, usual, had the
greatest audience. The charge for the privilege OF
sitting down having been reduced to shilling, more
seats were occupied than the day before. The first
prise pair Of horses, owned by Judge Havland OF
Hampstead, L. l., were bright bay, lSi hands high,
FIVE and six years old, own brothers, raised in
Western New-York, and were certainly a. hand
some moving horses as we ever saw IN har'
ness. Severed other pairs were splendid in ap-
pearance, and good as could be desired. The show
Of mules never has been equaled on the east side OF
the Anegany Mountains. Two pair owned by Mr..
Jackson Iron founder of this City, that work hard
every day, we have never seen excelled any where.
1t would be difficult to find four horses Of equal size
and handsome form. Mr.. Bishop Of Jersey City, had
a handsome team Of six, the leaders Of which were
out Of jenet by an Arabian horse. They were
small, but very active, and finely formed. NJ. No

TO BE Considered.

A Convention for the nomination Of State Of
fcers was sitting in our City throughout the last
two days. 1t was composed of delegates repre-
sentiDg not the people of our State generally nor
any portion of them freely aud openly banded to-
gether through devotion to common principles
and common objects. Who we're represented by
it, and what are their distinctive views and pur-
poses, their fellow. citizens are not permitted to
know. Nominating Conventions usually court
publicity and invite attention; this one shrouded
itself in darkness ard the profoundest secresy
Nominations are usually proclaimed as soon as
made, and sent flying on the wings of the wind;
these were designedly kept dark so that the
person who supplied us with such information
respecting them as we gave in our last would not,
for any money, be known as having done so.
Nominating Conventions usually devote slare Of
their time to preparing resolves or other authen
tic expostions Of their distinctive views, which
they are thankful to have published by any and
every journal; but this one keeps all its light IN
der the blacklist sort Of bushel. Other Con-
ventions are prone TO vaunt the superior intelli-
gence and knowledge of those whose views they
seyerally present; Of this ono it is principle 10
Know. Nothing or as near it as possible. And
their success in this respect would seem to be
very decided. We do not know that such State
Convention was ever before held; is it desirable
that there should ever be another
Conventions and Nominating machinery are apt
to be corrupt at best; the great counteracting,
conservative influence is Publicity. Take away
this, and they would generally be sodden in in.
iquity. If the Wing and Democratic State Con-
vcntiops were habtualy held with closed doors,
the delegates thereto being chosen in secret, and
their names and doiDgs all kept in the dark, we
think no respectable man would willingly have
his name before one Of them rs candidate; GER
tainly no one could consider himself hattered by
receiving one of their nominations.
We trust our w-citizens-those Who have
been lured into Know Nothing lodges, as we'll
as others-will ponder these things.
