We see the accomplished Kinkle, delighting au-
diences with his eloquent speeches, and plausible
plans; and raising fifteen and twenty thousand dol
lars night from the pockets of the sage i,ltabf
td,sts OF the western Statesall to be used either
in aid of the American Revolutionary League, or
for some kindred purpose. And these money ora
tors are aided In their schemes, and the people
kept constantly excited by such appeals as this /;
'To THE GERMANS IN AHnRIcA The news brought
to these shores by each successive steamer from Eu
rope, proves that the hour of insmvection 10
therefore, the refuges must organize and dold them

"To our former revolutionary companions we say
Be BE prepared The approaching struggle between
the last for II will only terminate with the annih
aton OF one of the two opposing and irreconciablo
principles"
Add to this the sage reflections OF Mazzini. In
writing to some friend, some member Of this revo-
utionary league, perhaps, he says
"Tweny-four millions of emancipated Italians will

Mr. Roedel to the German portion of the audience
made in New York few days ago:
"BRETHREN: For the first time speak in an as-s
sembly like this We have not all the same language
but our feelings the same they unite us here with
the American people. For the advancement Of these
sentiments we must not only unite with them in
speeches, but also in acts. In our country we have
fought for liberty, and many of have lost in bat
tie fathers, brothers, or sons Here we are free
but not free enough want the liberty Of living.

press is against us in this movement; but we need

Hunger is the excuse for these sentiments. 1t
was the prctence Of hunger that brought the Danes

hunger that brought the Goths and Vandals to

AKRON BURR IN FRANCE.
In reference to my proposition TO absolutely c1-
cluda from the country persons notoriously sedi-
tious, | cannot forbear 10 refer TO the French
government
How admirable was the conduct Of the French
government towards the United States, on the oc.
casion Of the visit Of Aaron Burr He was one Of
those pcrturbed spirits of this world, who, beins
foled at home in his neiarious schemes, and pros
trated under the weight Of public odium, fled for
succor and countenance from his own TO another
country Visiting France whore he expected 10
find among its conbustible elements, ample mate
met at once and promptly, with the frowns OF tlic
Court, marked asa public offender and exilcd
traitor; and we have reason TO know that every
step he took In France was noted by the authori-
ties. Even the French people, while willing to
treat him with their Characteristic cvility, ruther
avoided than courted his presence; and twas only
In the dark corners of the most mysterious and
gloomy parts Of the metropolis of France that he
could hold his reasonable leyees. How admirable
was this conduct of the French government. True
to her neutrality; true to her ancient friendship for
us true to her national dignity and 70 information
al delityshe observed, both in spirit and letter,
not only the obligations Of treaties, but followed
those high incentives Of reciprocal duty by which
princes and nations command the applause OF man
kind
How striking contrast, sir does this case OF tho
fidelity Of France present TO that which we exhib-
tied Of our duty to Austria, upon the visit OF ".
Koseuth TO this country. I forbear, SIR, TO COM
ment upon the turbulent scenes which distinguish
ed that extraordinary advent | forgive si, 70
the spirit Of liberty and to the too msgnanloun ,
generosity Of my deluded countrymen. We w"
grow wiser ms we grow older. Time ana expert
