about 1000 barrels of oil on board the

by much pompousness of expression, in which,
among other things of nearly equal note, the
following grandiloquent sentence occurs:
"Are you not aware that if the heavens
should fall, Russia could prop them up with
her bayonets? The English may be good
mechanics and artizans, but power dwells
only with Russia. No country ever waged
success sful war against her. Russia is the
