FRANCE. A proposition is at present before the French Chamber of Peers, for altering the election law; and considering how deeply the interests of France are involved in this question, and how intimately connected the affairs of that country now are with those of Europe, the matter cannot be regarded with indifference, although, generally speaking, the controversies of parties in France are of little interest in this country. At present the law of elections is so modified as to secure and give permanence to what may be called the revolutionary interest in France.

SPAIN. The Government of this country has published an official declaration, that all those foreigners who are taken int South America fighting on the side of the insurgents will be put to death as traitors; and it is also announced, that the most rigorous measures will be adopted against those who shall supply the insurgents with arms or ammunition, and shall be found otherwise aiding them in their resistance to the mother country.

ASIA.

EAST INDIES. The Madras papers of the 3d of October last bring gratifying ac-" counts from Ceylon. They confirm a report which had previously reached this country, that the pretender to the throne of Candy, and his minister Kappitipols, have been captured. This, as might be expected, has had the most beneficial effect in allaying the rebellious spirit so prevalent among a certain class of the natives. In every province, the people of all descriptions were hastening to submit, and to give the surest

proof of their sincerity by the surrender of their arms.

AMERICA.

UNITED STATES-The New York papers of the 23d January contain a report from the committee on military affairs, presented to the House of Representatives, in which they express the most decided disapprobation of General Jackson's conduct, reprobating the execution of Arbuthnot and Ambristie in the strongest terms, and pronouncing the assumption of power by the Court Martial on this occasion as wholly unauthorized by law, usage, or by any existing necessity. The committee proposed to the House a resolution disapproving of the conduct of General Jackson. The report was ordered to be refer red to a committee of the whole House.

The American papers also furnish us with a copy of the treaty between Britain and the United States, regarding the northern boundaries, and the limits of the fisheries, concluded in London on the 20th October, and ratified on the 30th of January last. The chief points settled by this treaty are the right of the Americans to fish on the coasts of North America and Newfoundland---the line of demarcation between the British possessions and the territories of the United States-and the extension of the existing commercial convention for ten years longer. No arrangement has taken place respecting the ma. ritime questions on which the two powers are at issue, and they have therefore wisely separated this, which is now happily a merely speculative controversy, from matters of practical importance, which required a more speedy adjustment.
