AMERICAN POLICY TOWARDS CUBA.

(From the Anglo-American Times.)
The Curl has been writing some sensational non-
sense about the attitude of the United State;
towards Cuba, of which the daily papers availed
themselves for the catchpenny headings with which
the streets were placarded. Had the much later
intelligence from America than the letter on vibieh
the Owl grounds its assertions been looked throng',
-
they would have seen that 4, GRANT had -not runmad ;" that " the feeling against England and ,„"'
France and Spain" was not being worked UP
Congress and in the public press ; and it is.sinalNY.
untrue that GRANT and his friends ardently long
for a foreign war. How can the limes repro:lac°
such a hooting as this ? " The entire feel'
ing pervading the high officials is one of bat:,
red to England, and to France in a less degree'
The Secretary of State, a well travelled, educated,
moderate and conciliatory man of sense, and Senater
SUMNER, work Foreign Affairs at Washington;
Those who know them are aware of the falsehood
marking a paragraph which has been copied iotcy
almost every English paper, and it is lamentable
that such stuff should be believed in Europe'
General Creaez-r, like all generals who have seen
most of war, hates it. He knows that it has been
the indirect means of breeding a dangerous net'
ruption in the Union which will require a veil,
strong and combined effort to eradicate, and be ':
aware that this is not to be accomplished without
producing a convulsion, except by a handling both
skilful and vigorous. It is as untrue also 03t •
his advisers desire war, as that the feeling
of the high officials is one of hatred to England'
Why three of the highest are Massachusetts men'
and a Massachusetts man inspires the foreignt
policy at Washington, while another will represen
the United States at the British Court. The para.
graph would not deserve an answer, had it not boa
copied so extensively, and furnished these sensation
headings. The real position as regards Cuba 0a54.
One,. when the mail left on the 10th inst., of doubt
and uncertainty. Many American journals denied
even the existence of a revolution in Cuba. 1:11„8
New York Times writes that an English gentleno:
had ridden through the island in search of tb
rebellion, but at each village it was declared
to be a few miles further off ; that be never
came up with it ; eventually arriving at Havana:
nah without seeing a shot fired. Another lea
ing Republican paper suspects that the Cab.
revolution, revolution, like the Irish Republic, is quartered l 0
New York ; that most of the military operations
,
are carried on in the neighbourhood of the Ci*
Hall. The 7 ribmie, in an article on the 10th /115t1
answers these sneers, describes the physical fool;
tion of the island, and shows that it is impossib
for the insurgents to carry on regular military °Pe:,
rations there though they hold the interior. GRASI.
policy has been distinctly pronounced—vigorous
ly
to protect the resident American citizens, and a:
vigorously to suppress the expeditions fitting out in
the United States in aid of the insurgents. '5
prepare for both Admiral lIoFF's fleet bn,
been greatly strengthened, and by a telegra;
from Washington last Monday we learn be
to be reinforced by eight more steamers txonyt,
ing 77 guns. A man of war is stationed at the
o,
mouth of the Mississippi with strict orders to l
tercept any supplies for the insurgents. The desti,is
nation of General STONEMAN and his regiment •
been changed from .California to Key West, with
the design, it was thought, of placing them °oto
board the fleet. Both sides .have made strentle
efforts to purchase some of the American monitor
formerly offered for sale, but Secretary BGRIE a
dined to entertain their proposals, though, it
te said, that the two lately sold to Peru have fallen
into the possession of the insurgents. Their agelie
were active in the Union, and pushing bard
some official recognition, but as yet without aril'
success.

Sir Edward Cunard, who died in New York
the evening of April 7th, was the sou of Sir Sall'l/.vo
