We have received New York Papers to the 25th ult.]
and Boston Papers to the 2Sd.
Thedomestic intelligence of the United States possesses
no interest. The report of the Administration of the
Navy had been submitted to Congress, but this docu-
ment contains little worthy of notice, being chiefly oc-
cupied with the arrangement of the United States'squa-
drons in different parts of the world; they contain the
particulars of the taking of Puerto Cabello by assault,
on the Bth of November) when the Spanish 'train op-
' posed so brave a resistance, that the city was not taken un-
til the whole of them were either killed or taken prisoners.
Advices from Havannah of the sd, had brought in-
telligence that a report was in circulation there, of the
surrender of the Castle of St. Juan de Ulloa to the

Mexicans, but this account is, we conceive, premature
It appears by Mexican Papers of the Bth of November,
received at Philadelphia, that the new Congress assem-
bled on the preceding day, and was opened by an ad-
dress from the President of the Supreme Executive
•
Department, to which' a reply was made by the Pre-
sident of the Congress. Reports were then submitted
from the four_ branches of Administration, in all of
which the affairs of the country are represented as in a
flourishing condition.
The following are extracts from the United States'
Journals :

FROM A BOSTON PAPER.
WASHINGTON, DECEMBER. is.
The most important fact which I tan to-day com-
municate is, that the Committee on Foreign Affairs are
summoned by the Chairman, Mr. Forsyth, to meet im-
mediately after the House adjourned this morning. I
can do no more than mention this ciraurpstance..
On this subject, the Association, of New York, re-
marks, " We have little doubt, from information ob-
tained from other sources, that the extraordinary call of
the Committee is in consequence of a formal proposi-
tion having been made_ by the British Government to
our Government, to unite in defence of the South Ame-
rican States, against any efforts of Spain with the So-
vereigns called the Holy Alliance."
