Prince hletternich is the son of the Austrian Prime Minister, and a lice looking young man. We may here mention a fact, which only re quires to be better known to give a death-blow to tome idle gossiping. The beautiful Princess Ester hazy, who attracted so much admiration at the Coro nation, and for whom the speru:ations of wiseacres ltr iScol so much distinction, is wife-, not sister, to Prince Paul Esterhazy. The Princess, we under stand, is a niece of her late Majesty, Queen Ca roline. - On Wednesday the Lord Provost, ,Magistrates, and Council, ntianiutously voted the freedom of the city to his Excellency, Prince Esterhazy, and to Prince. Aleternich. It was presented to the oon Tuesday, at their hotel in Waterloo-place. PORTSMOUTH, Ava. 31. His Majesty is expected here in .the ensttinp week, accompanied by the Royal squadron.

Lord Cochrane was at Callao, with about six or 7,000 troops. The Royalists at Lima, amounted to hetween eight and 10,000 troops. The Ex-Viceroy did not come home with his wife.

The quantity of straw is said to he large in most parts, but from the spring and early part of the summer being unfavourable, and the subse (rent heating 'loon of the corn by the rains, the wheats have receives!

Barley, pulse. anal tares. are expected to be full crops ; oats more gene rally light, and the hay harvest, northward, has been also light. After-grass universally plentiful. from the rains which fell last month, henetitting equally the turnips and potatoes, both which are now promising (Tops. Of the hops. accounts vary so munch, that they deserve little attention ; the fairest presumption mav he, that the crop will he full as large as at present estimated. Live stork of every kind continues in the utmost plenty, every where fully equalling the demand at most reason-' able and still declining prices. Wool very dull of sale in some parts, in others mending; notwithstanding. a fine sample from Van Dieman's Land has lately fetched theextraordinary price of Ills. 4J. per lb , a price greatly beyond tire best Saxon or Spanish. and a most enema vs.fing specimen of production from that most thriving anti promising colony. The depression among the tr uantry is at no rate mitigated by the prospect of the wheat crop ; and some over anxious speculators go so far. as to auger an inundation of foreign corn in the ensuing y ear ; an apprehension for n Melt, at p res e n t, we can discover very little ground% even should the crop on the ground fall considerably . below an aver age. The cultivators on the Continent are under a Find- Jar depression with our own, and prices sinking daily. Their crops have also been affected in a similar man ner hyatinoapheric vicissitudes. The beautiful weather which .we have bad for sonic time past, will prove im mensely beneficial to the country.-3liddlesex, August 24, 18•11.

Paris papers to the 31st ult. have come to hand, but instead of throwing any additional light on the state of the negociatious between Russia and the Porte, tend only to render it the more obscure, and the privions intelligence more doubtful. Acurdi fig to an article in The .IfuNitegr, on the authority of the .1 ugebtt rg Ga zette, dated Constantinople, July 30. two days after the expiration of the eight days fixed by the Emperor Alexander, as the peremptory listen's' of delay, Baron de Strogonoff, not having received any satisfactory an. swer on the part of the Divan, declared •that his mis. lion was terminated, and demanded from 'the Reis- Effendi passports for Ititnse4 and those attached to the legation. The Grand Seignor hail, at first, refused the finnan necessary fur the departure of the Russian Minister, but, filially, through the intercession of the ministers of the other powers, the Commandant of the Porte was verbally authorised 6 let the vessel, in which Baron Strogonoff was about to embark at Bu jukdere, pass without interruption. Contrary winds prevented the sailing of the Russian legation ; but it is affirmed 'here, that the ship got under weigh in the course of the afternoon of the ,31st, and that Baron Stroginioff safely proceeded on his way to Odessa, whet e he will be very well recei ved. Another article front Augsburg in another paper says, a hope was entertained that the existing differences be tween Russia and the Ottoman Government would be terminated by some desirable arrangement, but the Porte has suddenly revoked a portion of the conces sions which she had previously made. The unexpected turn which the negociations opened at Constaittinopk under the mediation of the ministers of Ansttia and England have thus taken, and the posi he advice that great movements have been made antotigst the troops cantoned on the Profit, as well as in the Ottoman army, under the Juss:ulPaclia, gave occa sion at Vienna to the holding of an extraordinary Council, at the residence of Prince Aletternich, on the I stb of this mouth. When it broke up, various cou riers were despatched to Petersburgh and London, as also to the Uenerals who command the Austrian troops stationed in Transylvania, and in the Bannat of Temes war. These Journals also contain another Proclama tion from the Government of the lottian Islands, dated Corfu, July 22, declaring that /all boats and vessels sailing under the British or the lonian flags, and taking part in the hostilities committed against Oie furbish forces in the seas of the Alorea and of Rome lin. shall, when taken in those unlawful and piratical engagements, be treated as Pirates, wherever they may fall into the power of the British nova( Navy.

The Infest Act of the Installation of the - General Congriss of Colombia, composed of tlfe twenty-two free Provinces has fulfilled my most artiest wishes. The Itepnblie t now founded on the most com plete representation of the people of Cuttilinamarca and , Venezuela, will rise to the summit of their happiness and liberty to which she aspires; anal that the iegiti mate depositories of the Sovereignty of the Nople may . exerc:se their sacred fnnetions, I consider myself flee front all executive authority. Being appointed silent of the State . by the Congress of Venezuela, and the representatives of Columbia, does not make me the President of this Republic, :since by her I have not been chosen. lam tired of hearing myself called a tyrant by my enemies, and if the Sovereign Congress insists (which I am nut afraid of) on my still continuing as President of State, I renounce for ever, from that moment, the glorious title of a Citizen of Columbia, and will actually abantlan the shores of Inv country. SINION BOLIV ‘R. Ills Evrellency, General Santander, slAit appointed the President of Cunglitiatuarea by the Congress of Venezuela, has likewise sent in his reignation to the Conoess. The mischief with which the project was pregnant, of removing. her Al.usisTv's remains. under military escort, by a route to disappoint and irritate the public .feeling, appears every day to he greater titan could be at first conceived. Deplorable as is the hostility pro. dtteed by that Oct ur;.ence between the Life C; cards and the populace, and desireable as it is on all accounts to allay the irritation that exists, tllere are not wanting firebrands to add fuel to the flame, and to excite to steps ultich threaten an extension of the animosity.— Who could have imagined, that in England there could be men so regardless of the pnblic peace, so insensible to the respect due to the tribunals of the Constitution, as to dare to enter into resolutions uhich are virtually in direct opposition to the verdict of a Jury, and calculated to countenance the horrible attempt of introducing among us lawless military sits lence, and of absolving the military of the whole some and necessary control of civil authority .1s if the Life tivas 'ls had not of themselves displayed on the day of the QurrN's funeral, and on other sub- Kequent occasions, a spirit sufficiently hootile to the pest ple, and sufficiently strong of itself to averge their personal wrongs, a public meeting has been held in London to form a subscription to manifest, by remune ration, the sense entertained of their services, and to encourage theta in resulting to their weapons when ex posed to, what they may personally deem, the assaults or insults of the populace. A measure more fraught with evil than this, it is hardiy possible to conceive. Does this consist with the character which these men as slime of the le , Nala !d proccable part q . Mc community ? What a contrast to this are the steps pursued by the hiNli in Ireland, where it is his practice and his boast, for the. purpose of avoiding all occasion of animosity between the military aid the people, to be unattended by a single soldier : No one knows how great a fire a little spark may kindle. The umbrage given at the Civic dinner at Dublin bats already occa sioned a contention, a hick tills the columns of their papers with recrimination, and lays the foundation of incalculabl, The Madrid papers to the 21st ult. which arrived last night, contain stone intelligence from Mexico, which, if relied on, is calculated to excite consider able apprehension in Spain. The Captain of a :whoa Der arrived at Cadiz in thirty-six day, from the Ila vannalt, says, that at his departure 500 men were em barking for Vera Crnz. A letter from the Havannalt, dated July 3, (including the substance of a letter from 31exico,) states this %suavesr to be necessary for the defence of Vera Cruz, which was the depot of 12 or 13 millions in goods and money, chiefly belonging to the merchants at Cadiz. The above-mentioned letter, dated Mexico, 29th of May, states the measures that were taking to encrease and concentrate the Royal troops near the capital. Iturbitle is said to have near 51100 men, including those who went or• r to him from Valladolid ; but this, the letter adds, would not mat ter if the Government has any energy, which it has not . A brie has arrived at Malaga from the Ravannah, the persons on hoard of which say, that before th e y sailed, a schooner lent arrived from Vera Cruz with despatches to tl:e Government, stating that Vera Cruz and lexico were besieged by the Insurgents, and that the crews of all the vessels in the port had been taken to man the batteries ; awl that it was absolutely necessary that speedy aid should be sent Goat the Havannah, the distress being extreme. The sane persons state that it was found impossible at the Havannah to give the aid desired, thought the Govetnusent took every means. - ,By advice* Prow Lisbon, it appears, that on the 7th tilt. the Oovernusent submitted to the consideration of d i e C..rtes, various tlespatrhes from the Illr.tzils respect ing the late changes in that quarter. On the 9th the arrival of Conde dos Arcos was notified to them and nest day they resolved that he shouiti be confined in the tower of Belem until the charges Against him should be solentnly investigated. _ _ _ A vessel whirls arrived on the 2l instant at 31ar veilles, front the Dardanelles, met, on the ttlth ult. near Cape Cerigo. a French rrigate, bearing a Rear Admiral's 114, and a corvette, cords% the Arehice lago. a' Ting sTATEIgns 11.

Dv nu)r, Ayr:. 31.—Yesterday, an adjourned Meet ing of the Nobility, Clergy, ()entry, Merchants, &r. who had become Subscribers to the Fund fur the Na tional Testimonial, was held at the Ito:al Exchange, for the purpose of appointing a Committee, for the appropriation and nunagement of the Fnad. At three o'clock the Lord :Mayor took the Chsir. dlr.

Ile then said, that the object for which they bad met was, the naming a committee for the management of that Fond. He had prepared a list, comprising some per sons of rank ; and including also, others of ail classes, religions, and businesses, amounting in all, to fifty seven persons, and to avail any unpleasant feeling that might arise by a supposed distinction or prefer -4 rice, he had arranged them alphabetically. Ilis Lord ship then read the names, and moved, that they should stand as the Com:tatter. This resolution %%is seconded by the Bishop of DERRY. Lord CARFIERRY thought, that the persons to be named on the Conamittee, should be such as would be most capable, by their exertions, of increasing the Funds for the National Testiusonial. There was hut one feeling of loyalty and attachment to the Sovereign throughout Ireland, and it would be well to extend the subscription throughout every county. His Lordship cause prepared with some resolutions to the effect:— That one person, (the High -Sheriff; for instance,) should I.e selected from each of the thirty-two counties in Ireland ; also, one from each of the Cities of Cork, 11 . aterford, Limerick, and Londontlerrv, should also be chosen, and thirteen, the re-inlander of fifty, (4 which number the Committee should cuusist,) to be named in Dublin. This suggestion led to a discussion, in which several gentlemen took part, which ended in adjournment until Saturday, at three o'clock. The Meeting was must numerous and highly re spectable. hi the course of the debate, Slr. O'Connell stated, that if it was determined that a Palace should be the testimonial adopted, be would, in addition to the twenty guineas already subscribed by him, con tribute one hundred guineas more, and fifty guineas a year until the Palace n as finished. Several other gentlemen intimated their intention to give large subscriptions. if a Palace were 'o he erected. The general feeling appeared decisively favourable to a Palace. Mr. SINGEII objected to a Committee to be com posed wholly 41 the Aristocracy; hr thou : Olt that it should he composed of such persons as were likely to pay the largest share of attention to the object. and whom their fellow-citizens knew and confided in. The MosintaineerSlWM-Pacitt, front Leith, moan tared the heavy gale of wind which was so severely felt on the east coast of lirttain on IVednetrlXy last.— She arrived in London on Saturday last at .; r.ss. with out sustaining the smallest injury, and sailed again on the following morning at right o'clock, full of pas sengers.—This Vessel has freptently performed the voyage to and from Leith, within the week, ask i the last in the unprecedented short spare of six days, in an ling the time she stopped at Scarhoro' and Shield., in both wing and coming.
