proclaimed war against t

that they would annihilate

not, for our brave soldiers

them back to their ow Il
shores.
"Iave they taken Hayana?
Not one gun has been fired
upon our forts, and their
ships, which pretend to main
tam a blockade, fear to come
within the range of the noble

would mean their destruc-
ton. Yankees are towards,
and can do nothing but boast
of what they will do, and
t hen do nothing. Every

them how we'll Il SpanIard

more than boast.
"Whprever the ships OF the

back with disastrous loss,
and their attempts to de

instead in the destruction OF
their ships. Our brave sol

upou every OCCASION achieved
