The Empress of Austria.

--Advices from Vigo state that the Osborne had arrived there on the 27th ult., to take in coal, after a very rough passage. In the Bay of Biscay, on the 25th, the Victoria and Albert and the Osborne encountered a terrific gale with a very heavy sea. Both ships were obliged to heave to, but as the weather moderated the Victoria and Albert, with the Empress on board, kept her course for Madeira, while the Osborne, with the Imperial suite, was obliged to put into Vigo. The Osborne had received a good deal of damage, but would be ready to start for Madeira on the 28th.
