Sweden Navy Ironclad Progress and Rebel Railroad Tale
A Swedish navy ironclad ship construction at Norkoping under Captain Cortlund, inspired by Ericsson designs, progresses with 300 workmen and may launch by May. A front-line letter discusses Gen. Grant’s railroad plan near Richmond, detailing a daring if rough line across fields and fortifications, with earthworks and a safe passage under cover. The piece also blends social reflections on happiness and beauty, contrasting the tale with wartime notes.
