lFrom the ~ York Daily .adr. Of Saturday
COLOMBIA.

In the Caracas paper of February
9th, we are furnished with the whole
speech of the Vice President of CO.
lombia, at the opening Of Congress,
the introduction Of which we have be-
fore noticed.
A minister from Guatemala resides
in Bogota, and the settlement of the
boundaries between the two countries
is a matter of interest, to prevent the
settlement Of foreigners between them.
The Executive has declared the Coast
of Colombia, on the Atlantic side, to
extend as far as Chagres, and his de-
cree is offered to the Legislature for
confirmation. With Mexico no rela-
tons have yet been formed, but are de-
sired.
"With the United States" says the
Vice President, eve maintain the most
friendly and cordial relations" Ar
engagements have been made for extend
ing the new system Of introduction,
but additional funds are required by
'ne coiieSes, as well as general plan
OF study. The navy is to be re-orga-
nized and increased; the army has
been thus far kept on the war footing.
We have received Bogota paper
of Jan, 29th, which contains the Official
account of the victory over the Spa
niards, received the day previous
The Editors say -
whether the world recognizes, or
not, our independence-we have shown
that We are deserving of it,"

Paris, Jan. 24th-By an order OF
the Minister of Marine, the Kings
ships and merchant vessels OF France,
are ordered to be furnished with a
white ensign, enclosed in a large blue
border, which, hoisted at the mizen-
mast, will be the signal for pilot, not
only on the coast of France, but in e.
very par, Of the world. American
ships in the French trade would there
fore probably benefit by supplying
themselves with such ensigns, as sig
nails for pilots in approaching the
French coast.

fears are groundless; for though they

with not having complied with its
