Causes assign'd for predations by Spaniards in the British trade
A correspondent argues Spain acted with France's instigation more than her own will to injure Britain. He asks how Spain, weaker by sea, risked war, suggesting a dangerous precedent of English missteps encouraged Spanish violence. The writer links depredations to French plunder in the Mississippi scheme and Britain’s loss of reputation, urging accountability and warning that corruption at home could empower enemies.
