Yesterday morning, about 12 o'clock, the Duchess of Glocester and the Princess Auogusta left tovwn together for the residence of the Roval Duchess, at Bagshot, where it is expected their Royal Hiighnesses will stay some time. Another Cabinet Council was held yesterday afternoon at two o'clock, at the Foreipn-officc, whieh vwas attended by all the Cabinet Mitnisters in town. The Cabinet broke up at half-past four o'clock. Prince Polignac, the French Ambassador, was engaged yesterday at the Foreign-fflice, transacting business with Mlr. Secretaiy Canning, previous tohibi departure for Paris, His Excellency also transacted business with the Chancel- lbr of the Exchequer yesterday. The Ministry of Vienna, which last year so magnani- mouslyl issued its interdict against the visit of two or three .English ladies, and an English patriotic peer, has published a fresh decree to guard Austria from the contamination of constitutional politics. On this occasion, however, the list of prohibited individuals consists not of English, but of Italians and -re"ncb. At the head of the list is M. Du- vrger de ilauranne, a moderate Royaligt and member of the last Chamber of Deputies... Who will heneeforward be thdught worthy of a passport, to that paradise of virtue and good Government ? The Baltimore Federal Gazette of the 11 th of November, which wasreceived yesterday,togetherwithlNeiv York papers to the 16th ult., brought by the Canada Packet, containsan account of a battle in Peru, with a decisive result in favour of the Independents; but it is evidentlv erroneous, and a mere version of that report circulated same weeks back, on the authority of a letter from Carthagena. Since the opening of the campaign, the only action fought has beea the affair of Junin, between the cavalry of the contending parties, on the 5th of August. NO authentic accounts of military operations in Peru of a date subsequent to this bave reached England. A letter received yterday from Quilca, a small port in Peru, and dated thel9th of August, men- tions as a report, that. the Royalists in Potosi had dleclayed against Ferdinand, and that the Asia and Acifiles had ar- rived at Chiloe, Both these events, however, are too vagaely stated to acquire any authority. The former ap. pears to refer to the contest between Olaneta and Valdez, of which our readers have been already apprized, Another letter from Quilca, of the same date, states that an Ameri- can ship, captuired for smuggling on the coast by a Spanislh brig, had been carried by the latter through the blockading squadron into Callao, where she was conidemned. Letters were received yesterlay from Monte Video, by the Doris frigate, dated the 2d of October. They merely mnention that. the electionts were proceeding there for re- turning deputies to the Congress at Rio Janciro, andl con- tain Ho intelligence worth quoting from Buenos Ayres or any otlher part of South America. A report has just reached us, that one of the worthy members for our county, J. A. S. Wortley, Esq., is sooni to be called to the Upper House, by the title of Baron Warncliff?- iVake- field papcr. The Montreal papers state that anotlier large timber-ship, of Rreater dimensions than the Colo,tbus, is building at the Island of Otleans.
