Blockade duty is not pleasant service,
and while no one with these fleets com

might De made to provide the warships

be highly appreciated, as ice is almost

of the feet is good on the whole.

ENGLAND SAYS SAIL IN

London, June 2S.-The St. James Gazette
this afternoon, commenting upon the pros

coast of Spain, says:
THE reception of the news evidences a
change in public opinion, which, at the
commencement of the war, thought
Europe should notify the United States
that the war must be confined TO Ameri-
can waters. 1t is now recognized that the
Americans are fully entitled to make war
in their own way. and they are indeed
driven to retaliate upon Spain in this
manner, owing TO the tactics which Spain
has chosen to pursue
