We have another view of the tharacter of Kos suth, which is exemplified' in tlii extract bis low If this be correct, of which wo hvo not tho least doubt, our readers will admit thft wo were right i n pionouncing hira to bo the grcitoat demagogue the world ever knew which wo took tho liberty of doing when he enacted tho piety scope in the city of Washington. M. Kossuth is entirely out of his legitimate line of life ho was endowed by nature Cur the Stage, and if Jiis eminent theatrical abilities had been con fined to the Theatre, ho would luvo entertained, perhttps instructed bis auditors, and his course of life would have been comparatively harmless But for such a iut io move ,itr ,thu circles that control the destiny of enipirq, and be enabled to disturb tho peace of couimuuitics, and create po litical excitements of the 'most extravagant kind, u a scandal to' the Intelligence of the 'twge j when ho docs this, too, by the'uttetanco.oTjlbe most ar rant njnscnae that overfull from mortal lipsand while he has thu taleut to conceal , from etiliglit- ened men the contradictions aud absurdities i!h which his language abounds,' docs he not deserve tho title of a most eminent actor a principal star in the line of demagogues and political impostors 1 Some one will say wo are to severe. My dear sir, you are the politest man thu world ever knew wo suppose you would not bo uncivil to the person who attempted to set fin' to your house, and failing in this, tried to rob you ol'all the mon ey he could lay his hands on more or less. You could not be very civil to such a man ? Then be assured the "measure you would iiit'to" to bucb a man, belongs to tho Magyar ' pressed dowu running over." Passing over his attempt to overwhelm our be loved country iu irre'.rievable ruin come to the efforts he is making to raise money. If a body of nativo American citizens were to go through the country, perpetrating such moneyed frauds and bare-faced financial ipiposturc-all tho power of tho law could not protect them from thu ' higher law" of one ' Judge Lynch." Thi'y would be hunted from society without favor or mercy. This is no exaggeration. Let any reasonable mua ecru - tcnize his specchce. and look into his money trans actions under the rule of ncum and twun, and ho will give a favorable judgment on our coarse. We would not fear to submit the matter to any hon est man in tho country, and stand acquitted or condemned by bis decision. Would that we know how to reach the ear or touch the heart of those deluded and infatuated citizens, who minister to tho deification of Ibbf foreign monstrosity. Men of America in whose veins flow the blood of our hallowed Revolution, how can you bear this desecration of your ances tral glory; this attempt to blast the ripening fruits of your noblo heritage 1 Can yon not draw from thence a glean to Inspire the emotions of na tional pride a spark to illumine the kindling eye of scorn for this auducious tresspasser and his no less insolent coadjutors ! Bui we fear to trespass qq the patienco of our readers, and pause to request them to look on the picturo below.

We believe the Meiporial to tho Commissioners, which wo published'on Tuesday, flmls favor with the community. It embraces a subject of moch importance all our culzcn,.'and not solely to slave owners, as has been suggested. Every man r CUlVill Wl VUf s Miit' i of tend to Insubordination of a very annojing it no worse character. ':A" ' We thluk onr neighboriof tho jerai are very much mistaken In saying that we might as well legislate for piety as for intemperance." Traffic ing in ardent spirits has long been a snbjoct of icglalatton, and in onr State the "disposal of it "by the amaH" is specially regulated by the law ofliccnce. The law cannot engender kind fecl- incs in the heart of man, but It can rightly pre-1 vent him from carrying deadly weapons, oy which his revenge iulght be gratified, and the life or limb of a citizen put In jeopardy. ; No princi ple of municipal regulation oan be clearer than thlv. -'4; It is law ful to restrict the pse or abuse of any article that has a tendency to disturb the peace of society nnd to derange the order of security of person and property for which object society Is formed, and t makes no difference what the arti cle no used or abused is whether bowieiknives, or gunpowder, or rum. But legislation does protect persons in the ex ercise of pirms celebrations-and although thej law cannot make people pious, it may preveut any one from disturbing those that are or profess ; to be so-they aro protected by law in the en-1 joyment of civil and religions liberty. j The question is not whether the Legislature j 0u painting." has a right to make laws In regard to tho use and j iuei.i i don't know how that may bo, but it is disposal of ardent spirits, but how far expediency i ftn admirable thing, inasmuch as it is calculated and justice to all may extcud the regulation of j to incite tho youth of America to the study of tho subject. It is not expedient to make any . history, which they now abandon for works ofQc law unwarranted by public s ntiment. If it were j tjunj anj niisuamed historical novels, which are tho will and dosire of a community that every ony caioulatcl to mislead their readers, imbue other house should be a retail grog-shop, all Jaw j tuom w;tl, faIso information, and viiiato their contrary to this will and desire 'would be inopero-; ta8lo foP ti,0 rccw(is 0f tho past." tivo. The Memorial, as wo understand it, Is in tended to ascertain tho general sentiment in rela tion to the retail shops in this section, In view of tho consequences enumerated, and which are manifest to all. In a free and intelligent commu nity, law follows in the wako of public opinion, which goes before and declares what ought to be done. UNIVERSITY MAGAZINE.

It is a very neatly executed octavo pamphlet, 6f 82 pages, handsomely covered, and gives indications of being a very entertaing and use ful peiiodical. , A limited number of choice Advertiscmentai handsomely displayed, will bo inserted in the Magazine, at moderate charge. This is altogeth er jprong. Such matter should appear on tho cover only, which might be doubled for that pur pose. Wo arc of opinion that a few pages devoted to tho most prominent events, foreign and domestic the news of the day, In a condensed form, would enhance tho value and Increase tho patronogo of the Magazine, and render it somewhat historical, and therefore more valuable for binding.

" PATENT RIGlrtTiT becoming of The subject of Patent Rights is serious importance to tho people, from tho many abuses that have grown up under the system If the inventions conld ennre to the benefit of the laboring mechanic, whose ingenuity produces im provements in machinery, we would not complain, But it is frequently far otherwise, and whilo tho inventor js put off with a miserable pittance, tho speculator, who has money and means, reaps a rich harvest from the toil of ot hers. It is a fact, almost too incredible for belief that the Inventor lias been called upon to pay a tax to the Patentee, for Improvements which or iginated wtth himself. The speculator obtains from tho unsuspecting mechanic a description of his improvement, add then goes off to Washing ton aud gets a Patent, the profits of which yield a handsome fortune; and instead of saying to the original inventor, "it is but justice that you should share in tho profits of your own Ingenuity and tl ill " tnlls Mm that ha hat nlitninnd a iiatent and ' ' . , ., .. ..i it..j..-.i.- i . , ,,,-,;..,. ... . . t sytt'i" thero Is no rcmtitly for tho stttroror; If lie en. ! aacriflcc, by paying tlio cost of tho liquors the j ters into a legal eontest with tho swindler, he will still bo told he must pay for tho nso of the Pat- ' nt, ajid damages Into tho bargain for the law . allow It and the Court awards it."

' Arrival of the Great German Patriot Klu- I kel Come to Town. j Rjccnlly we have been glorifying and deifying ; all kinds of revolutionary patriots and orators j One as great as any of them has arrived in our aiidst, and has already been holding forth to thu 'German opiiliitiou. Kinkel has come; and ' though no notes of preparation have been souud ; ed, and no military or civic triumphal procession has ushered iu his advent, and no cannon have roared their welcomes from our forts, and no ' great guns of orators have greeted him outside the precincts of the city all which have been j grievous sins of omission and sad oversight yet it is time enough lor the great, graud, bloody Revolutionary Committee in tho Astor House to act, end tiiuo enough for the Common Council to take tho initiative in giving hiiaa demonstra tion of some kind. Better late than never. Kii. kel is tho representative of a larger nation iu Eu rope tbau Kossuth and is a man of finer and more martial appearance, lie is the representa tive of a more numerous nice in this country than Kossuth the Germans, next t tbo Irish, being by far the largest item in our foreign popu lation, while tho Hungarians are like angels' visits few and far between. The lliiiigaiians in (he United States probably number one hun dred mid niiiety-iiine and a half tho Germans between two and three millions. Gt-rimiuy is as much iu need of political regeneration and liln-r-ty, and quite as lUi'ly to bo successful in a icvo luLsoiiary struggle, as Hungary, It is much near er and more accessible ; ami every consideration suggests that, to Jthat country and its rcprcscnta- j live wu lmui,d by far stronger obligations to miiunT iiiiitnri;ii ami in:iunii hiii uih t 10 miv . , - , ' ' (ltlipr hnrimiMin rminlrv 4vi(M,t lr.l.,n:l wlilrh i j r- j Mvm t0 l,avo bcen completely forgotten for tho j present, amidst the host of other claimants for sympathy, and money, and intervention. We call, therefore, ou the Mayor and Corpora lion to give the use of tho Governor's Room, iu the City Hall, to Kinkel, to hold a levee ; also, to take rooms for the German patriot nt the Astor House, and pay for them at the expouso of thu city. This-Is the least they can do; and if they do it promptly, it will make some stoncmeiit for the omission of a triumphal miry or ovation. We call on tho abolitionists, white, black, and grey, to come forward and loud a helping hand. Wo call upon tho holy Alliance of Temperance, with Barnum at its head, to como forward, that, by serving the German cause, they may acquire such an influence as will upset the lagcrbier and tho comer grog-shops. We cull upon tho Protes tant clergy, of all denominations, led on by Rev.
