SECOND -EDITIO N.

IMPORTANT INTELLIGENCE FROM
• HOLLAND.

We have strong reason to believe that the unpa.
rallelect tysanny which the French have extrcise,i
Hogand has at length driven the people to despaa.
port; and that a serious insurrection has taken place.
'Sendai, sliest the Sracut.a.roft lugger arrived in
the Downs, with intelligence to this effect. Rottu.
1 dam is the principal scene of action.

Another account states, that the populace risen
upon the Garrison of Rotterdam, and had take.. pr...
session of the batteries and ports. It adds, that the
French troops had been disarmed there and at oth,r
places, and that the insurrection was spreading
very fast.

A Gentleman who left Holland on Saturday
and arrived in town yesterday, states, that before he
came away, he heard a report that the Amsterdgm
post had been stopped, in consequence of a seniors
insurrection in that City and in Dort.

Since writing the above we leers, that other re.
counts have been received from Holland. which
confirm the intelligence th .t a serious insurrection
has broken out in several parts of that country. All
communication between Holland and Walehefeft
had been cut off for three days, and it is inferred by
the people at the latter place that the Dutch peeque
have overpowered the military. It is also said that
' iasurrectionary movements have appeared in Prance,
1 and that for some time past there have been murmurs
among the higher ranks. as well as the people in p.
neral.
