I make | this allusion to the length of your forbearance because I am convinced that natural events—that circumstances unseen now will lose to Spain her hold upon Cuba. and how much more certain must be her Jos when the great and the good of the land unite in vast power to drive her and her hired myrmidons whence they came? There must be anend to oppressivu, for the traai- pled on turn at last. There must be an end to her sway | over Cuba, for Cubans have said it, and the course of potural events—particularly Spain’s own perfidy to her colony—will assist them in the object they have vowed to axcomplish : The policy of Spain will lose her Cuba for the simple reason—did none other exist—thut Cesaus are governed by Spanish laws which are inapplicable to their condition, aid in the mating of which they hd uo voice.
