MEXICO.--The editor of the National Gazette, has received the Mexican paper Aguila Mexicana down to the 17th ult. The principal topic in the Mexican capital, was the invasion of the island of Cuba by the joint forces of Mexico and Colombia. A committee of the Mexican Senate, to whom the subject had been referred, had ascertained that the Executive branch deemed it expedient or even indispensable, and the means of the Union adequate to it; and they accordingly reported to the Senate two Resolutions; one, that the Executive should be authorized to form, in conjunction with the Republic of Colombia, a military expedition to assist the inhabitants of Cuba, to achieve their independence; the other, in case of success, care should be taken to establish in the island, "a national representation upon the bases of the public law of the new Republics of America."
