The DANGERS or TOWERING AMBITION
Some Of our contemporaries including few mag
unanimous politicians, are mourning over the sui
den fall of George Law from his late dizzy po-
ltical height down to the bottom Of the deep sea
Of political obscurity They think that we should
not have thus cruelty, at single blow, demolished
the god Of our idolatry. We think differently.
George Law was public man Of our manufac-
ture To get him up in the political world, he
cost us six months Of hard work, an a,
ful expenditure Of brains, and many thou
sand dollars in paper and printing wasted
upon him. When we visited Europe last yea
we left him great man-strong on his legs, up
right in his position-his brow touching the sky
and his shadow covering the land; when we re-
turned, we found him down in the dirt, sur
rounded by clique Of hungry suckers who had
persuaded him to set up business on his own ac-
count, and to kick from under him the solid plat
form which, at vast expense OF time, labor and
money, We had built for him 70 stand upon The
suckers that bad gathered around him had Aa,-
tered him into the idea that he could stand upon
his own bottom.
We are now satisfied that he has behaved
meanly and shabbily in various ways-that he
has encouraged the absurd idea that he had
bought up and controlled the NEw YoRk HERALD,

THE WAR on MAYOR wooD.-Our amiable
contemporaries Of the Tribune cannot get over their
hostility to Mayor Wood. They are continually
harping on that string. II is little singular,
however, that the particular act for which the
Mayor is thus opposed was the result of letter,
in white and black, from the principal 7tilerne
philosopher himself This is strange ct Of in
consistency on the part Of the philosopher
against the Mayor There is something mys-
terious about II. We should like to see that
letter, under which the only appointment abso
lutely at the discretion Of the Mayor was deter
mined In favor Of the philosophers views
Perhaps, however, the real policy Of our philoso-
pliers, in their opposition to Mayor Wood, may Be
TO aid in bis reelection, upon the theory that the
people Of this city uniformly 20 contrary to the
advice Of the Tribune in reference TO Corporation
Affairs and according to that sound old maxim,
that "onc good turn deserves another"

MYSTERIOUS MOVEMENT OF Col. FREMONT
Our distressed Fillmore cotemporary the Hon.
BOBBY Brooks, has made another terrible dis
covery, which has thrown him again into a
shaking ague. He can't sleep Of nights on &C
count Of the late mysterious disappearance OF
Col. Fremont from the city for few days The
discovery is that Fremont has been
off to Canada. He went North-he went
towards Canada-he must have been to
Canada; he couldn't have missed Canada
supposing he travelled due North only half the
time he vas absent The conclusion, therefore,
is that h has been to Canada. But why Canada?
Why should he 60 of, ,ncog., to Canada at this
crisis? There's the mystery, which has not only
thrown BOBBY Brooks into shaking ague, but
which has excited the most fearful emotions in
the mind of the extraordinary Stephen H. Branch,
the great Panama hunter of alligators, the great
expeditionist in search of the birthplace OF the
Chief of Police, and the shining light of Alder
man Briggs as his exclusive candidate for Mayor
1t is difficult to say whether Branch, Briggs or
Brooks is most excited, amazed and bewiljb ed
at this late mysterious journey Of Fremont,
which must have been to Canada.
1t 80 happens, however, that this mystery, like
all the other mysteries concerning Fremont, is
easily solved. Col. Fremont has been on visit of
q few days TO the wooded and mountainous regions
of northern New York. His object was q little re-
Taxation of mind and body from the pressure OF
the numerous visitors from all parts of the Union
an almost continuous throng, day and night, at
his house in Ninth street, for some months past.
He selected the wild forest regions of northern
New York, as the best adapted 10 his objects o.
relaxation, retirement and vigorous manly
exercise in the pure air Of the noun
tains, to which he has for 50 many years
been accustomed. He comes back as fresh
and elastic az if just in from an exploration OF
the wilds Of Oregon, the defles of the Sierra Ne
vada, or the romantic mountain lakes which fringe
the western border Of the Great Basin of Utah
On this visit, however, he has not been out of the
United States at all. lie has had no occasion to
go to Canada. The Free pure air Of our own
free mountains free exercise, recreation and rest
we're the sole objects of his late mysterious jour
ney ard these having been achieved he has re-
turned home. Let BOBBY Brooks, therefore
cease to roll up the whites of his eyes, and let
the excitable Branch take good sweat and sleep
OFF the nightmare Of this mysterious and imagi-
nary journey Of Colonel Fremont to Canada.

When our magr A6cent idol begun thus to betray
his mean INST ncts, we thought it time to demolsh
him and tn'e batch of suckers that were bleeding
him TO d'sath. He was political experiment Of
ours politician Of our manufacture-we made
him. and surely man may do what he pleases with
his own. Thus, having let him down from his
lofty decisions, he is at liberty to resume his
proper functions of buying and selling rail-
roads, steamboats,, Aldermen, Congressman, Cabi-
net officers and other vendible articles; but he
will have learned this good lesson that it is dan
gerous to play the buyer and seller with an indie
pendent journal, which has nothing to ask and
nothing to fear of trading politicians big or lit
tie. We dare say that the suckers that have in
fated George Law with the idea that he owned
the HERALD Office, have feeced him of at least
hundred thousand dollars. He has cost us,
perhaps, not less than twenty thousand, so that
in cutting him down to his original dimensions
there will be saving on both sides In relieving
him of his suckers our charity cannot be ques-
toned. The prisoner is discharged.
