Tho Cuban Questi0u-Rumsrcd Action Of
spain.
LONDON, Sept. II. 1859.
The London star radical organ to-day states that
the dinculty between the United States and Spain
on the Cuban question Is In . fair way OF settle-
mont The rumor OF o proclamation guaranteeing
religious liberty ana freedom OF eiecron shortly
to be issued by the Spanish governments u better
omen; but II the reports OF the conduct Of the mill
tary government In Cuba are true, the concessions
must be prefaced by one more essential namely.
that the Cubans be permitted to live TO enjoy them.
Position OF the United States Towards Cuba.
LONDON, Sept II, 1869.
The London telegraph has an editorial to-day on
the relations existing between Spain and tho United
States, wherein 1t says:-The recognition Of the
Cubans would place Warrington In the wrong on
tho Alabama question. With what consistency csn
rights be granted wandering guerillas not fornid-
able enough for blockadef II England desired TO
put the accusers Of her policy out Of court she
should encourage the policy ascribed to President
Grant We prefer to take the question on the broad
grounds Of common interests. War between Spain
and America would be material injury
that would DO equally apportioned. Tho ship.
ping Of the latter would DO prey to
privateers and her commerce, with the pronts,
would pass to neutrals. The reduction OF the
national debt would be arrested, internal reorgsn-
ization checked, and public discomfort would revive
with tho growing burdens. Spain would lose
Cuba, but continue Spain. With her obstinate
tenacity OF resistance her great undevelOped re-
sources. her power to attack American trade. and
her comparative invulnerabllity to retaliation,
nkr~ft tor
years be more loss than gain; would be entansled
In war combining maximum cost and minimum
glory. Such considerations cannot pass unregarded
at Washington, since there Is still ground for the
hope that peace may be preserved.
The London Examiner on the subject OF Spain and
Cuba, has the followng:By the history and analogy
there Is no longer physical impeachment to the
representation of Cuba In the Spanish Cortes. Elk
pedlency recommends IT, but for Cuba. Is 1t not too
lates II not sold or surrendered her own inhabi-
tants must in some form DO mortgaged TO tho
Americans with the certainty that once In pawn,
she will eventually become theirs 1t is better for
Cuba that this should be &c. and 1t Is BETTER perhaps
for Spain.
