The MEETING IN WALL STREEr.-The last
attempted demonstration in Wall street was
comparatively failure. II was not nearly 80
large as the preceding one and If they were
to attempt another in the same place the falling
off would be still greater. The operators at
these Wall street meetings are mixture OF the
odds and ends Of all factions in the city. They
are generally well known as played out, broken
down politicians, and their career az such is
ended. That explains their extreme personality
and violence and hostility and bitterness to the
regular candidate for Mayor nominated at Tam
many Hail. They do not oppose him as the
candidate Of the democracy, although be re-
ceived bis nomination at the same time
that the State Senators and other demo-
cratic officers who were elected at the last
election received theirs They oppose him on
personal grounds and assault him in the most
violent way possible, calling him thief, forge,
scoundrel, villain, and such other hard names
Meetings of such character are an utter de-
graduation Of the public voice.

WHERE HAS GEN. WALKER GoNE?-It is
known that Gen. Walker has left our shores in
a swift steamer, accompanied by well equipped
and provisioned flibustering army of some four
hundred men; but the question is, whittier has he
gone? Some suppose that <his destination is
the peninsula of Yucatan, from which rendez-
vous, on some fine moonlight; night he may pos
sibly descend upon the ever faithful island
of Cuba" Others think ii probable that he
may slip into Mexico, cut out Comonfort, and
undertake to regulate the affairs of that repub-
lie upon Anglo-Saxon principles. There are
others, again, who conjecture that his present
mission is the Dominican end of the island OF
Hayti, and the overthrow of the black empire of
Faustin Soulouque. We have every reason to be-
lieve, however, that Nicaragua is the real desti-
nation Of Walker, and that his purpose is, first
to reconquer there all that he has lost and Sc
condly to reduce the surrounding States to sub
mission. We must wait to see how he gets in,
and how he gets out.

INC0MPETENCY IN NoMNATIoNs.-Mr. Tiemann,
the nominee Of the odds and ends of all parties,
is a man without education, force of character
or intellect to qualify him for the post of Mayor
of this city. He is respectable paint manufac-
turer in Manhattanville, and is competent to
buy and sell materials in his business; but he is
utterly without capacity to fill the important
position of Mayor of this great metropolis. On
the other hand, his antagonist has had years of
experience in Congress and in his present post |;
and notwithstanding all the difficulties of his
position and the violent personal assaults made
upon him, he has been the most competent Mayor
that we have had in many years.

New FISHING GROUNDS ron THE LOBBY
From various indications Swallowed forth
through the newspapers concerning the lobby
at Washington and Albany, 1t is evident that
these marauders upon the public plumber are
beginning to look upon the broken and crippled
banks as the principal victims for this winter
lobby operations, State and national. From
Washington we are informed that several mem
bers of Congress have already intimated their
intentions of opening the war upon the banks
In schemes for winding them up or
regulating them. In connection with
these schemes the business of the lobby
gangs will be to regulate their TOLLS and black
mail subsidies; for the banks have still some
assets in specie, stocks, bonds, DC. As for rail

JOE HoxIE's LAST SoNG AND SPEEoH.-Our
friend Joe Hoxie made his first great debut in
politics seventeen years ago in the 'hard cider"
campaign. He there exhausted himself in speak
ing and singing all over the country. 1t was
the only campaign in which his voice and his
oratory were in tune, and the only one in which
he was successful. Ever since that time his vo-
cal Accomplishments have resembled a cracked
organ, and bis success in the political field has
been generally commensurate with them. Joe,
in going into this contest, merely intends to
sing requiem over the odds and ends of all the
half dozen political factions with which he has
been connected during the last twenty years.
We hope he will have good time Of it.

SYMPTOMS OF Row IN THE CANAL last
Col. Forney's old Philadelphia organ, the Penn
syluanian, and his new organ, the Press, are be-
ginning to square off at each other with the de-
liberation of two professional pugilists. The
new Kansas constitution is the nut to be cracked.
Upon this tremendous issue Mr.. Rice, of the
Pennsylvania, takes the side of the Southern
niger drivers, while Col. Forney, of the Press,
plants himself in the front rank of the Northern
niger worshippers. We advise these two de-
mocratic champions, however, to put up their
cutlasses until we shall have had the upshot of
the fight among the Kansas border ruffians. 1t

delphia with the opening of the row in Con-

very capable paint manufacturer, but utterly
unfit for the position of Mayors composed of
broken down politicians from every party in

selves without any organization at all, and
boast without the slightest ability to put their
finger on any capital.

JUDGE BY His ACrs.-The opponents of Wood,
the regular democratic nominee for Mayor,
make great many vague charges against him
in reference to his action during the three
years of his tenure of Office and after his being
twice elected. These charges are all vague,
personal and absurd. There is not a single
positive charge against his official conduct that
is tangible, or capable of being turned to his dis
advantage. We ask the guerilla press Of the
odds-and-ends of all parties to name any official
act of Woods, during the three years that he
has been Mayor, which betrays the excessive
turpitude that they attribute to him, or shows
him to deserve-as they think he does-being
sent to the State prison, or being hanged or
puillotined.

which the opponents Of the democracy are as
sailing its regular nominee.
AS for the Wall street meeting, it was unique
and ssa geaeris. We do not think that there has
ever been such meeting held in this city as
this anti-Wood meeting since the same mer-
chants met on the same spot near quarter Of
century since to denounce General Jackson
as murderer and an adulterer because he
would insist on removing the government de-
posts from the rotten banks in which these
merchants were interested.

RHETORIC IN IIIGH PIACEs.-Recordg Smith
occupies the distinguished post of Criminal
Judge of this city. IL is respectable and ele-
waited station. AT the recent odds-andends as
sembage in Wall street, he picked up and used
the choice epithets of philosopher Greeley-such
as forger, scoundrel, villain, thief, and so on. If
il was Recorder Smith that made the speech In
Wall street, which is attributed to him. he must
have mistaken the place and the occasion, and
must have supposed be was sentencing some

BRIGHAM YOUNG's NEXT MovE.-We have
expressed the opinion, from the present rebel
lious attitude of the Mormons, coupled with the
Northern exploring tour last summer of Brig
ham Young, that he has made up his mind to
maintain his dictatorship over Utah this winter,
if possible, and, with the return of favorable
weather, to be off to the British possessions
north of Oregon. 1t has, however, been sug-
gested to US that southern movement would
be more expedient, and that Sonora, in Mexico,
will probably be the seat of the next encamp-
ment of the Salt Lake Saints
Sonora Is thinly inhabited. The Mexicans
could offer no resistance to the forces of Brig
ham Young; and instead of repelling them, it
would be, perhaps, the best policy of Mexico to
invite the Mormons into Sonora, as pretty
sure defence against the savage Apache In
dams and the California flibusters. Sonora,
too, affords q very inviting field for a people
combining the Industrious and luxurious habits
of the Mormons No country possesses a
finer or more genial climate-it has a vast
area eminently suitable for cattle and sheep
ranges and its gold and silver mines are
by many explorers supposed to be filed with
fabulous riches. It is cut of from the rest
of the world by intervening deserts, and
yet it affords practical emigrant and CONNER.
cial communication via the great Gulf Of Cali
fornia, An extensive desert region of six OF
seven hundred miles lies between the present
camps of Mormondom and the province of So
nora; but over this desert they may readily pass
without suffering from the want of water, by
moving for the Colorado river and descending
along the banks of that stream, or within striking
distance, to the head of the Gulf.
With the advantages indicated, we should not
be surprised if the next exodus of the Mormons
were to be in the direction of Sonora. Brigham
has cut the Gordian knot. He must evacuate
Utah-he has, doubtless, resolved upon an early
evacuation. He cannot get away by water-he
must go by land. His most feasible route in
vites him into Sonora, and that country is full
of resources which, in the hands of the Mormons,
would pay handsome dividend to Mexico. We
hope that our government, forthwith and the
Mexican government, when they get one, will
encourage the Mormons to settle in Sonora.

THE GLASS BALLOT BoxEs.-For some days
there has been good deal said about the glass
ballot boxes used at the late election in accord
ance with clause in the Metropolitan Police
bill of April last. How the contract was given
out and who was the real contractor have
been subjects of much discussion; and docu-
ment has been published for political purposes
pending the coming charter election, setting
forth one side Of the question, and alleging that
the contract for the manufacture Of these
boxes was fraudulently made-that the price
charged was more than three times the actual
cost-that the number ordered was considera-
bly, more than Is required; and furthermore
which is the gist of the whole afiair-that Fer
nando Wood is interested pecuniarily in the
transaction, through the medium of his brother
Benjamin. This document il part of the pro-
ceedings in a suit in the Supreme Court asking
for an injunction restraining the Mayor and
other officials from paying for the glass ballot
boxes. We publish to-day all the papers in the
case, showing both sides of the question, and
putting the boot on the right leg. They are
very interesting, as indications of the shifts to
which politicians will resort in time Of need.
