 .Will the people of England be conient any longer to look quietly upon Cuba and Porto Rico, producing in value upwards of ten millions sterling of produce annually, oa the one side--and on the unpaid debt of the forty six millions due by Spain to British subjects, on the other side-Cuba and Porto Rico, once so rich and so easy prize--and forbear longer 10 distrain upon ite goods ot their reaifhy, their taiihiesS heir mprinei- pied SpaniSh debtors 2''
