WASHINGTON.
Recognition of the Cuban Republic SENT.
Officially Urged.


WASHINGTON, April l3.-The official
organ contains an elaborate editorial, de-
claring the present time opportune, and
gives reasons for an immediate recognition
of the Cuban Republic. The article con-
tains citations from international law wri-
ters, showing no just cause of ofiense to
commercial treaties entered into with the
Republic prior to the recognition by Spain.
1t declares that our commercial interests
are greatly suffering by the wahin Cuba,
and that the balance of trade against us is
from forty to fifty millions; that complica-
tions heretofore existing no longer exist (;
that England intrigues for the control of
Cuban affairs aud trade; and that recogni-
tion would open a new market for western
grain growers, and provision dealers, ma
chinists and manufacturers from the east
ern and middle States, and furnish occu-
patton for thousands of Southern people,
and tend to restore prosperity and good
feeling of the Southern States toward the
Government. The article is supposed to
express President Grants views, which
foreshadows action by the Government.
Mr.. Boutwell's health has improved. He
was in his seat to-day.
Ben. Butler interviewed the President
to-day.
The Printing Committee of the Senate
which has had under consideration the
management of the Government printing
office for several weeks, find nothing Il

1t is conjectured that the immigration to
the United States will be reduced one third
this year. The New York Express says that
of the Immigrants recently arrived at that
port nearly the whole body have left for
places of distinction agreed upon before
leaving home, the great West, as usual,
absorbing the greatest number. OF one
thousand arriving in New York on Friday
only twenty remained in that city.
