There is no doubt that Cruz has made an armistice with Iturbide, by which the latter engages ~not to commit hostilities against the district reader his command, till an answer comes from Spain to the demands of the Independents. Perhaps the same may happen to us, and in some respects it would not be amiss, as it would give time for fresh troops and the new Viceroy, so much desired, to arrive from Spain. lisrbide is said to have 4,500 or 5,000 men, including those whn went over to him from Valladolid : this would not matter if the Government Madan, energy, which it has not.

Paris Pipers of ‘Veduesday and Thursday lasi have arrived at our office. 'Flory confirm, in wan , degiee, doe ititclfigeirce already published in tin; paper on.Sotturday, that the answer of the Party to ttae Wri ts : a wn was :woolly presented to planer STROGONOFF on the day fixed for receiv ing the decision of the Divan; lout that the Baron, euirsidering the terms of it evasive, and calculated mere}): to gain tune, declined to accept it, and em harkid ton board a vessel prepared for his reception. In this point of his actual embarkation, a variety efaccounts coming from several parts of the Conti nent concur; but there seems to be some doubt of his Inning sailed from Constantinople. The delay, however, is attributed solely to the prevalence of contrary winds. Tlw Iffokiteur contains an article from Constantinople, winch states that the Baron had auttnely sailed bor Odessa, and that Count trro EWA Et N. who is appointed to the torto ni:nod of a corps of the Russian army, bail left Odessa to repair to los headhunters, in eontemplation of en immediate invasion of the 'Turkish provinces. The Porte complain., it is said, bitterly of the Ambassador's abruptness. mild i. resolved to transmit its answer directly to St. Petetaburgh. Unwilling alike to sanction the departure from Coosteniistoplk , , or to give Idiot any additional rause of diapleastire, the Tarlosh Government refused to grunt him the p.esports he reiluiled, but at the same time F ~ r T "'e'' R ", 1 issued isdroctions that he should be 'mattered to travel as be pleased without any molestation, and that his ship should be allowed to pass without under going the formality of inspection. This event discountenancea all the hopes which were pre viously entertained of the continuance of peace. The concurrence of Austria in the views of Kitimat cannot be doubted; but the determination of tit! other Powers is as yet a matter of mystery and of deep interest. The expectation of a war has alrealy exercised a very• Unfavourable influence upon the Austrian Government securities, nor has our own Intuit heti', free from a similar impression. We hope that no circumstance will occur in ;he ap proaching conflict to induce the !Ukiah Govern ment to take a part in the *quarrels that may arise upon the Continent.

The Andromache frigate, Captain SIIERRIFP. with about one million of dollars on board, from Lima, arrived on Saturday at Portsmouth. She left the port of Callao on the gth of April Imo, leaving there the Owen Glendower frigate. Hon. Captaiu SPENCER, and the whole of the Chilian fleet, under Lord COCHRANE. His Lordship's force was in a most efficiem stale, and an attack on the town of Callao was daily expected to be made. Lima had not surrendered to SAN MARTIN'S army, but so straitened were the Royalists in all their re sources, that its daily capitulation was expected, together with the whole of the province. The An dromochi-called at Valparaiso, and left it on the Bth of May ; reached Rw Janeiro on the 4 ist June, after a favourable passage round Coe Horn. She left Rio Janeiro the 15th July, and has brought to England, as passengers, Lady COCHRANE and her two children, and the wife and family of the Ex ' Viceroy of Peru. The Saperb, 74, Captain A.

The occu. ration of this post secures the fatuous mines of Potosi, La Paz, and Cochabamba, whose valuable productions are is. traduced into Lima through the Province of lance. The spirit of the natives of these two provinces slay be best in ferred from the following paragraph, extracted from the his tory of the South Americas .Revulation (the author of which resided in Lima); in which it is altirwied, that these four places are, without doubt, those that have suffered most from the Revolution ; the uatives have undergone every hards►ip, and yet in no part of the world is patriotism more affirmed. Si Ricafort has 2,000 troops in Jamas, from whose rich asd well-cultivated valleys the capital re ceives crest supplies; this, with Roaming', situated es the other side of the Cordillera, are completely in a state of revo. lotion ; the Spaniards maintain themselves only at the point of the bayonet, and, on their entry a month since, the lu. diens, collected in a great number on • precipice near the passes,watcbed the Spaniards, and immediately they approach ed, they threw immense gulpas, or large stoner, down the height, by which and slings, they killed and ►outed the whole force. It is not improbable that the Patriots in the Sierra (which joins this province), with this feeling prevailing amuse the Indians, will dislodge Ricafores division, in which ease Lima would be molly reduced fur provision.. It is ra ther singular that the adjriniug province of Ruaticavelici should he entirely addicted to the Royal cause " In lima ■nd its environs the disposable force may be 7,500, under the intrusi►e Viceroy, La Serna, and his con stituent General, Camel:re, who promoted • mutiny in the garrison of Agaapuipsio, in order to depose the legitimate Vier-King, Lientenant•General Duo Juaquiu de la Przuela, which wok place on Ilse morning of the 29111.1anuary.—A peremptory order was sent lulu him to abdicate within two hours, saying, that it was the wish of the troops that he should be deposed; there being no alternative, he soigne(' his resignatiou, soul La Serum took the command, without, strange as it may appear, a single voice of the people. The chief instigators in this conspiracy, besides La Scrim, were Cante►ae, the Marquis of Valleumbruso, mid a Colonel &nine; the two latter went in the brig of war Magpie, for Spain, with the information, but were captured off Rio de Jaheiree by the Ruesios Ayrian privateer Heroine. From the incommunication of the Andrummehe, it is not possible to say bow far the existing Government may be popular; but it is certain that all she officers have been forced to re linquish half their pay to defray the expenses of the troops , and provisions Lave beronse both scarce and exerssivety dear. It is said, on good authority, that it was the intention ill hazard a battle to relieve the inhabitants, mad the result must decide the fate of l'eru. The camp at Agwipuquia is broken up; from the number of officers and soldiers shot there, it hax beau deservedly called the Santo ()trio, or, the is qui~ition.

The ditissinti of the articles of the Constitution is centiiined in the tortes'. We give this day an account of the progress of the Kinn's visit to Dublin up is W e dnesday last, on which day the Dublin Papers state hii MAJOSTT proposed to visit the Curragli of Kildare. From our private letters; however, we learn, that in *con sequence of the wetness of the weather his MaJairrir postponed his visit to that celebrated race-groiind' uotil Friday Nat. The Marquis of LONDONDERRY, accompar.ied 'by Lord VALLETORT • and suite, Ifit Dublin and passed through Belfast on Satur day se' 'ght; on his way to his seat in the north of Ireland. It is stated in the Dublin ['spirit that his departure was in consequence of an ix presi sent to his Lordship; who was then at glane Castle; by the Austrian Ambassador in Dublin; immediately upon the receipt of divatchri from his Court, which were presumed to be of political im portance. This might be a plausible reason for his Lordship's sudden and unexpected departure for London, bad he proceeded directly hither, but it is not a satisfactory cause for his Visit to his Irish estates. We are rather disposed to CfinclUde that his MAJESTY did not require his further attendance in Dublin, and that his Lordship was very glad to be relieved from it. We have seen letters which give a very different account of his reception dur ing his visit to that City from that which we have read in some of the newspapers. The people of Dublin are repruablied in no small portion of the public press of this country with hypocrisy or fickle ness, in bestowing the most enthusiastic applause upon his Lordship, too lately the subject of their reprobation. The dealers out of this censure should, in justice to the people of Ireland, haie ascertained that their premises were correct. Some friendly Boackirrgharn—and we do Bud there are two or three managers of such scenes from this side of the water now in Dublin —may have contrived, in the ordinary way, to get up the farce of an llama for the Marquis of LONDONDERRY, among a few of the populace ; but the piece, we believe, was soon withdrawn, mud where it did succeed, it was entitled for its good fortune to his Lordship's new title. under which Lord CASTLEREAGH, their old friend, was not at first generally recognised by the lower classes of the people of Dublin. His Lordship and his friends, who know in what manlier lie was received out of doors on Ibis arrival at the home of the Archbishop of Duituts, when he honoured his Grace with his company at dinner, will acknow ledge the fairness of this statement. On Monday the Rosario, Captain MARTAT, •nd on Tuesday the Tyne, Captain J. K. WHITE, re turned to Portsmouth from Cuxhaven. On Tuesday the Eurolits frigate, Captain Rio- LAND, was paid off, and immediately re-commis sioned by Lieutenant PARKER, for foreign service. On being paid off the seamen presented their First Lieutenant (Lieutenant CHARLES PEASE) with a handsome Over cup and cover, and an elegant uniform sword and belt, in token of theivestrem for his kind, officerlike, and gentlemanly con duct towards them during the three years and up. wards the ship was in comwission. The German Correspondent states, that • plan has been submitted to three great Courts (by Baron GAGERN), for the restoration of the Order of St. John of Jerusalem, in the island of Rhodes, or some other island, which shall be separat ed from the Ottoman Empire, iii consequence of the war, which is considered inev t ibie. He proposes to establish three colleges of the Order ; one for Catholics, another for the Greeks, and a third for Protestants. Each college to have a Grand-master, under the protection of three great Powers (p►oba bly Russia, Austria, and Prussia). This project is very well relished by the public, and we shall doubtless shortly see a crusade for the purpose of getting possession of the island of Rhodes. Sir GREGOR M‘GREOOR, whose name is so ititi nudely associated with the transatetions of the war between the colonies of Spain and the mother coun try, arrived here on Friday last front Belfast, in the Eclipse strum-boat.
