Lords of the Admiralty and Ironclads Sail from Plymouth to Gibraltar
The Times prints a long letter from its on board Agincourt correspondent detailing the voyage of the Lords of the Admiralty and the ironclad squadron from Plymouth Sound to Gibraltar. The letter says evolutions were preliminary to the main maneuvers planned between Gibraltar and Lisbon. The Daily News covers the flying squadron from England to Bahia and extols the efficiency of officers and men and the ships’ sea-going qualities.
