W THOMAS. Discussing the War, in a Coffee-House, at Copenhagen - sketched by E.T. Dolby, 1854. 'We have been favoured by a Correspondent (Mr. E. T. Dolby) in the Baltic fleet with the accompanying characteristic Sketch...In the centre of the group is seated an old Danish savant, who unfortunately speaks a little English, and invariably bores each new comer with the same question, and jeers at the inability of the English or French to touch the impregnable Cronstadt. No sooner did an English officer, en route for the fleet, present himself at one of the places of general resort at Copenhagen, than the Danish savant mustered his best English, and demanded to know what our Napier will attack first?...the Dane withdrew into a cloud of tobaoco-smoke, only again to emerge to put the everlasting question, and, map in hand, to spare no endeavour to convince his hearers'. From "Illustrated London News", 1854.
