"We arrived here to day, came to off Elsinore, and fired a salute of thirteen guns, and it was returned from the castle with the same number. We have had a very fine time so far on our cruise, and expect to sail to night for Copenhagen. We shall remain there, it is probable, three or four days, and then proceed up the Baltic."
