The French squadron celebrations In
Russian waters are the occasion for some

The VossicIe Zeitung comments on the III
cidents attending the voyage of the French
feet as affording valuable strategic
hints for a future war. 1t notes that the
French ironclads are of deep draught, and

Denmark in the next war, but holds that
the support of the Copenhagen forts would
be rendered futile.
