IXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM PARIS, MAY 31.

" Amongst the distingnished persons arrived at Pa-
ris since the permission BONAPARTE granted to the
Emigrants, may be numbered M. NECKER, and M.
CALONNE -; it is to be- presumed that the good
counsels of these Financiers will bc solicited, in
order to put upon a more solid and regular establish-
, ment the state of the public revenues, which has
great occasion for able assistance.
" The unseasonable frost which took place within
this fortnight, not only in the environs of Paris,
but also in the fertile province of Burgundy, has
been already attended with serious efFeCts to the
poor; the common wines have increased in price
very considerably,., and if the apprehensions now
-entertained of the Vines being in a great measure
destroyed, be justified, the whole Community will
suffer much inconvenience ; the poorer sort of Bur-
gundy and similar wines, constituting the chief
beverage of the Public at Paris.
" The time allowed for colle&ing the votes of the
Citizens. in Paris, respeaing the eleaion of NAP U-
L EON BONAPARTE, Consul for life, expired a-few
days since. It is said, that at the closing of the Lists,
not more than t 8000, names were inserted, and
amongst them, three Citizens had -the courage to
write a legible Non—One very cautions hero, wrote
between two columns, as follows, Mn foe, je 71' OM
sais rien, oui et non.—" In good truth, I do not
know any thing about it—yes and no."
" Citizen MARESC ALCH I, the Minister of the
Cisalpine Republic, gave, last Wednesday, the
most magnificent Diplomatic Dinner, that has been
:,een at Paris for some time. All the Foreign Mi.
nisters were present, and a particularly good under-
standing seemed to prevail between Citizen TALty.
RAND, and the Cisalpine Minister.—The dessert of
fruit was the most recherche', and the most expensive
that can be I,,nagined.
" BONAPARTE remains with his family at Mal-
maisim, but his. whole time, even there, is given up
to public affairs. _

. .
" Very constant communications are kept up h:.-
tween this Country and Switzerland, where affairs
begin again to wear a serious aspea. The abilities
of KuHN Will, most probably, prove insufficient to
resist the influence of the French Republic ; and we
may be allowed to predict that ere long, a Consti-
tution will be presented to these Sons of Liberty,
similar to that which the Cisalpines have been corn.
pelled to accept• We shall attend to the circum-
started which nay present themselves, and lead to
a corroboration of the ideas we now-Fmertgin on the
subjel."

At the Thames Police-Office, on Wednesday, Jo-
seph" Bolsover, Jan Lill, and William Masters,
were charged, on the oath of William Holcro, one
of the Surveyors belonging to that Office, that about
one o'clock on Wednesday morning, he being on duty
near Tron.gate, and seeing the Prisoners, whose ap_
pearance excited his suspicions, he rowed towards
them, giving prders to his men, Watts and Laraway,
then in the Thames Boat, to board them ; upon
which BOlsover knocked Watts down, and afier-
wardi picesented a loaded• pistol at him, which
fortunately missed fire. Lill, the other prisoner,
seized a scull, threatening to beat his brains out ;
upon which Legat and another waterman went
into their boat, and, with the assistance of ano-
ther Police Boat's crew, who by. this time came
up, they were all three secured ; and, on searching
Bolsover, two more loaded pistols, one of which was
a four barrelled rifled one loaded, was found upon
him, together with a bundle of picklock keys and
skeletons, to break open the locks of the ships'
hatches to come at the cargo to plunder. In
this conflia the party threw 'several things over
the side of the boat impossible for 'the Officer
to recover. The resistance that one Of them 'Made,
after he was in custody, was elctremely violent, and
in which scuffle one of the Police Watermen was
plunged into a strong ebbing tide, and with much
difficulty saved. The prisoners Bolsover and Lill
were ordered for re-examination, anti Masters en-
larged by friends coming forward to be responsible •
for his appearance on a second examination,
Four Footmen were apprehended on Tue'sday
morning at the Union Subscription House, in Pall_
Mall, charged with assaulting the Military who
were' stationed there to keep the Court-yard clear.
The offence of two of them being trifling, they
were admired to bail in 201, each, hut the other
two, whtit:e offence was aggravated by their indeed.
