TIE PoLrcY REGARDING CrBA.-The
Administration has finally settled upon
a definite policy regarding the difficult
ties in Cuba, which is summed up in
the authoritative declaration that it will
recognize neither the belligereucy nor
the independence OF the Republic. This
course has been adopted after mature
consideration. The negotiations, which
will soou be revived, between our Gov
ernment and Great Britain regarding
the Alabama difficulties, have had much
to do with this result, for the reason
hat a compliance With the wishes o.
the Cubans would detract from the JUS
tics and consistency Of our demands
against England. We have good reason
to believe, however, that the Admins
iration will embrace the opportunity OF
the present disturbances for the pur.
chase Of Cuba. So says Washington
correspondent Of the Philadelphis
Pres, of July 2nd.
