President Grant has sent a message to Congress about Cuba.

Tie says neither Loyalists nor insurgents obtain great success, while lboth commit great atrocities. He declines to recognize belligerent eights in the latter because they have no seat of government, no 4egialature, no seaports, and no revenue service,—because, that is, -they have none of the things which the South had when recog- -nized by Great Britain. A furious debate arose in the House of Representatives upon this message, Mr. Banks calling on the -Government to declare itself neutral in the war, and General Butler defending the President and objecting to war with Spain. Finally, the House passed a resolution authorizing the President to 'remonstrate against the barbarous manner in which the war is -carried on, and to invite an expression of opinion from other mations. The recent execution of a.Son of Cespedes, the insurgent President," a mere lad, has increased American feeling upon the =subject, but some curious underground correspondence is believed to be going on between Washington and Madrid.
