Let's correct and reformat it properly:Portuguese policy of Mr. Grand pre
The Colonial Secretary will not - as your Excellency did not write by this morning's Steamer, receive your promised letter until tomorrow night at Sconest.
My hiat comes on the next morning, and as it is for Ilander, I cannot afford to lose it, particularly since what I did was done in my character of Attorney General and Justice of the Peace.

It seems there was an OCR error in "Fortuguese" which should be "Portuguese", "Sconest" is unclear but left as is due to rule 7, "hiab" is likely "hiat" which is still unclear, possibly "dispatch" or another word, and "Ilander" is also unclear. "cannot" was capitalized, which was corrected. The text was reformatted into proper paragraphs.
