Tins morning we received Paris Papers to the /7(1 instant. It appears by intelligence from the Hague, that an Amnesty in favour of the Dutch Emigrants has been agreed to by the Legislative Body of the Ea, tavian Republic. The Amnesty is even extended to all those who have borne Arms against the Re_ r ublic, with the exceptio,o, lio,vevet, of those who were inst,rumental in delivering up the Dutch Flect the British Arms in the year 1799. The Maniteur of the I ist contains along ArrL n the subjea of recruiting_the Army, to which is annexed three Supplements, containing the number • of Contingents to be furnished by each Depart :tient, for the purpose of "completing the number of ao,ooo Conscripts, which, by the law of the 18th of May last ➢ were placed at the disposal of Government. An article is inserted in the 1176n;teur of the zoth, which excites in our minds considerable, surprize. It is dated from St. Brieux, and states that thirteen individuals condemned to death for assassination in the Department of the Co to dm Nerd, hay.c taken refuge in the Island of jersey, where, to. ';ether with a ferocious Brigand of the name of DESJADI!.'ZS, they enjoy a special prbredion.— We' know nothing of the truth or falsehood of the statement as to these men being in the Island of Jersey at the present moment ; 'but of this we are firmly convinced, that the British Govern ment neither does nor will grant any prote6ion to persons whom they are called upon to deliver up under the stipulations of the Treaty of Amiens. We say called upon, because it is necessarily implied • that there must he a demand made on the part of - France before the British Government can be 4wAre ofany such persons having Laken refuge in the Tlntninions; and we cannot conceive why a demand is not made in this instance, instead of in, setting the article alluded to in :he illon;teur. .I.c appears by an Article .from Berne, that the Canton of Uri has seceded from the Confederacy formed between that Canton and the Cantons of Sc./71111z and Underwalden, against the Constitu tion of the Helvetic Republic. The intelligence of the EMPEROR of GERMANY having acceded to the Convention of the 4th of June, respelling the Indemnities, is repeated, - and certainly wears the aspett of - probability. . , The health of the ARCHDUKE CHAR.I.Eg is stated to Le entirely re-established.

FRAS7 a of Lovat, i r ;• and for Mr. Fokeispf Culloden, 6.. An Attempt was made, which faired,',Of uniting the two latter parties ; because it was found that some individuals of both, had been engaged against each others Candidate in favour of Mr. GRANT, i n .the event of such a Coalition, and that his success most: have been equally certain by a like majority of four. The .Election, however, , being _keenly con-. tested, some objelions were siarted - the part of Mr. FRASER, against the adMiSsion i of new claim+ ante to vote,in the interest of Mr.' GRAVT ; but theseolijeCtions were over-ruled as frivolous, by a great, majority of the old Freeholders promtscousit attached to all the parties respeCtively.
