SPAIs.The affairs and prospects OF Cuba are the SUBJ
Ject OF greatest interest in Madrid,
The Madrid correspondent OF the London Morning
Chronicle in letter dated September TO- says: now
learn That The English government will not only do
nothing for Spain in the Cuban question: but have very
uselessly and lmpolcly caused much to be signi
ned to the Spanish government which, when is con-
dered that is the unanimous policy OF all parties here
without exception, to retain Cuba at all costs, shows al
any rate that Lord Pamerston sets very little value on
preserving any influence that may have been acquired by
the British envoy at this court II is avore notion in
some quarters that Spain must lose Cuba. and perhaps
the anticipation OF the loss not regarded with feelings
OF very great regret by such parties Nevertheless,
might easily be shown that object OF British policy
would be promoted by change which wo1ld substitute
the and stripes oil the American Union for the ban
ner OF CASTLE. The antslavery cause would certainly
not be promoted by il. The present captain general

slave trade and gradually TO exiingulsh slavery itself

public debt being fulfilled under such circumstances
The prompt putting down OF the Agueo nsurrecton and
the destruction OF the Lopez expedition, will perhaps
give breathing time 10 Spain, which, ii is 10 be hoped,
will be used TO place things in better order in this island
and her other colonies. One practical evil has been the
yision and often opposition, oil the colonial powers
Thus, in Cuba, the captain general finds his authority
at the head OF the finances OF the island by the com
chief OF the naval department. and by the head
OF the judicial department
Gen J. Concha, arriving Cuba. found himself so
hampered Che parties being frequently nominated the
same principle as at one time regulated the appointment
OF chief secretaries OF Ireland, that they TO
look after the Lord Lieutenan that he demanded TO
have supreme powers conferred upon him over every
other authority, and forwarded his resignation 10 his
