lPROM OUR SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE
COPENHAGEN, July 26-NOtwithstanding the
official declaration of neutrality in the present war on
the part Of the Danish Government there many peo
pie who believe il TO be only temporary measure, and
that as soon as the French feet appears off the coast
they will force the Danes to throw of the mask OF neu
traity and take part in tie against Germany. They
would then just be placed in the same alternative as
they co years ago, when Nelson took away their
feet for their determination TO remain neutral In this
case however, IL is the French that have got the start
and enjoy moreover the advantage Of knowing that the
sympathes of the Danes in favor Of the French

these words. 81 We separate WIFI tlt Stcduy HOf'
that when we called upon TO defend the
rights and the honor of king and country, our
present work the time Of peace has not been performed
IN vain" Notwithstanding all this il is an undoubted
tact that the camp has moi been broken up and the Nest

GKorsoer Faedre'qdet goes stil further and states
that within the last days the general feeling In this

open flames The DaG6'ade rather ma!iciousy preends
