COLONEL FnEMoSr. We noticed in our an
nual saluiaiory, condensing The remarkable e.
vents Of the last twenty-five years, the tall
walking Of the galan, Colonel Fremont across
the Rocky Mountains. We were most happy
TO encounter our enierprising couniryman in the
more civilized region Of Broadway, looking as
veil as a frs,raie specimen Of the genus homo
could. We have often cnyied the Colonel the
exciting pleasure Of his wild adventures, and
the successful issue to which, by his iron Will,
indomitable energy, and unhincbing courage
he brought his hazardous and gigantic scheme
Of exploration and though we rarely speculate
on such matters, we think il would be singu-
lar but by no means improbable coincidence, "
one who has done SO much as pioneer, in the
far-oif regions Of this great country, should, for
time, be called upon 10 preside over the whole
of it.-Nae York Spirit Of the Times.
