The body Of Mr.. Wood has been found;

also, person named Lowe, and two
other steerage passengers, making in
all ten individuals, met with watery

ty-eight. The Diamond sailed from
New-York on the 18th December, and
would, therefore, have the Presidents
message on board; but no papers of a.
ny description have been saved. She
was quite upright in the water, and
lay about mile from the land"

LONDON, Jan. a.
RECOGNITION BY GREAT BRITAIN OF
THE INDEPENDENCE OF COLOMBIA
AND MEXICO.
MIR. Canning communicated to all
the Foreign Ministers in the afternoon
OF Saturday last, at the Foreign Office,
that the Cabinet of his Britannia Ma
jesty had come to the resolution of ac-
knowledging the independence of Mex
leo and Colombia. Commissioners
would be sent to those states, charged
with full powers to conclude treaties OF
commerce between them and this coun-
try, founded on that recognition.
The recognition of Buenos Ayres,
which has long possessed settled go
vernment, may soon be expected. We
understand that some further informa-
ton, respecting its extent and external
relations is wished for before recognis-
ing this state. No report from Chill
has yet been received.
We understand also, that Col. Camp
bell and Mr.. Ward were an hour with
Mr.. Canning on Sunday, at Gloucester
lodge, when they received their final
instructions from that gentleman, pre-
vious to their leaving town on We'd
nesday next, to embark in the Egeria,
at Plymouth, for Colombia and Next
co, where they are to reside permanent
iy, the former commission being dis
solved. These gentlemen are charged
with full powers to negotiate and con-
clude treaty of commerce with the
states in question. Mr.. Ward, who
lately married daughter of Sir J..
Swinburne, is accompanied by his lady,
and Mr.. Ball, formerly attached to the
Embassy in Spain, goes with Mr.. Ward
TO Mexico.
