FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

FRENCH PAPERS.

The Palls Papers of Monday contain no intelli-
gence of importance. The following are extracts
from the ilfessager des Chambres of Tuesday :

" VANNES, JULY 14.—Ninweea Swiss, almost
all of them officers, have been arrested in this town.
They were pointed out by a telegraphic despatch.
It is said they intended to attempt an insurrection
in Bretagne. The vigilance of the Government has
prevented them from beginning to carry their plan
into execution. One of the recruiters, who came
post to Vannes, and is supposed to be a person of
importance, has been arrested, just as he was walk-
ing with an individual whose residence had been
subjected to a domiciliary visit. This must have
led to no result of consequence, except the removal
of a bundle of papers which was contained in the
portmanteau of that individual. The arrests con-
tinue, in the midst of perfect tranquillity, and to the
great disappointment of the Carlists of the country.
" PARIS, JULY 18.—General Dubourg was ar-
rested on the 14th of July, at five o'clock in the
morning, in a medical establishment to which he
had retired on account of his infirmities. He was
still in bed when the summons was announced to
him as suspected of a plot tending to overthrow the
Government. His first order was converted by the
Juge d'lnstruction into a mandat de depot for a plot
against the safety of the State, and the distribution
of cartridges.
" We have spoken of the arrest of several supe-
rior officers at the Hotel des Invalids. Besides M.

Rinant, Secretary to the Governor, we hear to-day
of writs issued against MM. Delisle, Col. Rousseau,
and Bengeons, Adjutant-Major.

" It is affirmed-that the'Government has taken
measures to proscribe, according to Article 132 of
the Penal Code against false coinets, the persons
who have been concerned manufacturing, intro-
ducing, or circulatiug in Paris five-franc pieces with
the effigy of Henry V."

There was a further slight depression in the
French funds on Tuesday-the real cause, the stag-
nation of business in Paris, and the general holding •
back of bona fide capitalists ; that assigned by the
jobbers was, that Holland was going to war with
Belgium; but there was no foreign news in the French
capital on Tuesday to justify any alarm.
Donna Maria of Portugal was permitted to laud
at Brest, after two days' quarantine. She set out
with a suite of forty persons for Cherbourg, on
Monday, to reside with her step-mother.
The French troops in Algiers had something like
a battle w'th a host of Bedouins, who came down
upon them at Belida. The French loss was 500 men,
the Arabs some thousands.
