A GREAT CRIMINAL AT LAsr.-We have had
criminals enough in New York, one would
think, and Of black enough character; murder
ers, robbers, authors Of rape and arson, and per-
petrators of all kinds of infamous crimes. But,
if portion Of the metropolitan and the rural
press is to be believed We have just now among
us greater criminal than ever This misera-
BILE wretch is Mayor Wood, and his crime is
proposing to buy $4,000 barrels of -four to pay
for bread for the starving poor this winter. We
have not yet heard what penalty it is proposed
10 innict upon this scandalous monster for this
nefarious crime; but it is evident that hanging,
drawing and quartering would fall short of his
deserts
