The present condition Of Continental Europe has
awakened and excited, to action, various interests
and influences in this country The fres OF revolu
tion believed by any not to be ogushed ADD
thGt the amo will shortly burst forth rith terribly
increased intensity. The sagacious poll .iciaas Of
the United States sre shaping their course to be
on the popular side here, in reference to tho
struggles that it is believed are to take place there
The shrewd mercn ant is preparing 70. the crisis,
with respee. to the shipments he is TO mako and
his returns. The Hungarian, OF Kossuth Reyalu-
tionay Committee Of this city, would, If they xne
how, do something, but they utterly inefficient,
and should shut up shop Their contrivanco Of
issuing Hungarian, or Kosutb shin plasters, won't
do. IT is said, some originally placed on that
committee have backed out, though no an-
nEnciation OF their resignation has been yet
made by the survivors IL is said, also, that one
member Of the committee made the sale Of forty
thousand rluskets, alluded to by Governor Kos
suth in his speech that we heretofore quoted, and
that the muskets sold were scarcely worth tho two
dollars each, agreed to be paid for them; but we
cannot fully credit this report. Whatever is the
fact. the Hung rian Committee should forth Nth
dissolve, and, unlike the Irish Revolutionary Com.
mttee. should make public erp0,e Of the funds re-
ccived and the amount disbursed. The woysu,icia.
mcnto, or advertisement, Of the Hon. George Law,
in the form Of letter to the editor of the HERALD
given below, covers the whole ground Of relief to
the European revolutisnists, Hungarian, Italian,
Polish. German, and French. The emigyes in
England, it 10 said. have command Of a large
amount of funds Mr. Law ia the man who can
provide them with the needfal implements and mu.

author, and the people Of this country and Of Eu-
rope may be assured that he viii stand up, without
ainchipg, to every word he writes or says. George
Law is the architect Of bis own fortunes. lie is
one OF the celebrities Of the age, and character
that docs not appear in every generation. OF the
Americans who have preceded him, the late Henry
Eckford, perhaps, most resembled him but he is
n some respects superior to Eekford. His talents
are more diversified Mr.. Law is a native Of tho
