The spin-fluctuation effect in the Se-substituted system Fe$_{1+\delta}$Te$_{1-x}$Se$_x$ ($x$ = 0, 0.05, 0.12, 0.20, 0.28, 0.33, 0.45, 0.48 and 1.00; $0<\delta < 0.12$) has been studied by the measurements of the X-ray diffraction, the magnetic susceptibility under high magnetic fields and the electrical resistivity under magnetic fields up to 14 T. The samples with $x$ = 0.05, 0.12, 0.20, 0.28, 0.33, 0.45 and 0.48 show superconducting transition temperatures in the ranger of 10 K$\sim$14 K. We obtained their intrinsic susceptibilities by the Honda-Owen method. A nearly linear-in-$T$ behavior in magnetic susceptibility of superconducting samples was observed, indicating the antiferromagnetic spin fluctuations have a strong link with the superconductivity in this series. The upper critical field $\mu_0H_{c2}^{orb}$ for $T\to$ 0 was estimated to exceed the Pauli paramagnetic limit. The Kadowaki-Woods and Wilson ratios indicate that electrons are strongly correlated in this system. Furthermore, the superconducting coherence length and the electron mean free path were also discussed. These superconducting parameters indicate that the superconductivity in the Fe$_{1+\delta}$Te$_{1-x}$Se$_x$ system is unconventional.
