THE WAR IN DENMARK: SKETCH OF THE REDOUBTS...AT DUEPPEL, SHOWING THE...OUTPOST SENTRIES..., 1864. CREATOR: UNKNOWN.
The War in Denmark: sketch of the Redoubts Nos. 4, 5, 6, and 7 at Dueppel, showing the Danish and the Prussian outpost sentries - from a sketch taken on the Ruhenberg Hill, by our special artist, 1864. '...since the 17th of March, Ruhenberg Hill, which is not more than half a mile from the nearest of the Danish redoubts..., has been in possession of the Prussians...The Dueppel Windmill and the Redoubts, which are on the brow of the hill, are here seen from the west...In the foreground are four of the Prussian soldiers, who lie under the cover of a low bank of earth, which has been thrown up to protect them from the Danish fire. The hedge that traverses the middle is also lined with Prussians, and they are posted in twos and threes across the field beyond. The Danes, in like manner, by twos and threes, with regular intervals between each station, occupy the next field a little higher up the hill. The hostile outposts are within easy musket-shot of each other. We see the high road to Sonderburg, with its telegraph posts, ascending the hill...This is the ground where the unsuccessful Prussian attack...[on] the Redoubt No. 6, but were repulsed three several times by the fire of the Danish batteries'. From "Illustrated London News", 1864. The War in Denmark: sketch of the Redoubts...at Dueppel, showing the...outpost sentries..., 1864. Creator: Unknown.

THE WAR IN DENMARK: PRUSSIAN TROOPS LEAVING ALTONA FOR SCHLESWIG...AT THE RAILWAY STATION, 1864. CREATOR: FREDERICK JOHN SKILL.
The War in Denmark: Prussian troops leaving Altona for Schleswig - the officers taking a hasty meal at the railway station, from a sketch by our special artist, 1864. 'Under the impression that the allied army is now taking possession of Schleswig to deliver it up to the Prince of Augustenburg, a change in the public feeling in Holstein has, we learn, taken place since it was known that the troops had crossed the Eider. This change is nowhere more conspicuous than in Altona, where the Prussians and Austrians were at first received, not only with coolness and suspicion, but in many of the streets with hoots and hisses. But, now...the enthusiasm of the mob is as much in favour of the allies as it was previously against them...when the celebrated regiment of the Prussian Foot Guards called "Kaiser Franz,"...arrived at the Holstein frontier and entered Altona..., they were received by the assembled populace with loud cheering, and escorted by them...to the terminus, where they were treated with refreshments, at the expense of the town, previous to being forwarded by special trains to the front. In the course of the afternoon several other Prussian corps arrived, and were received in the same way with noisy demonstrations of joy'. From "Illustrated London News", 1864. The War in Denmark: Prussian troops leaving Altona for Schleswig...at the railway station, 1864. Creator: Frederick John Skill. (KEYSTONE/HERITAGE IMAGES/THE PRINT COLLECTOR)

Expedition against the hill tribes on the Punjaub Frontier: view of the Chumla Valley and village of Umbeylah from the position held by the British force on the Goroo Heights, 1864. View of '...a remarkable incident in this brief but stubborn war...The crag picket, which was the key to our position, is situated on the summit of an almost precipitous hill about 700 ft. above our camp...The enemy, knowing well how necessary this position was to the security of the British forces, attacked it thirty-five times...The party occupying the work were...driven out of it, with...about forty men killed and wounded. The 71st Highland Light Infantry...were formed at the bottom of the hill...the order was given to advance...nothing could equal their steadiness, in spite of the murderous fire of the enemy from the heights. The gallant Colonel...who was severely wounded, was the first man to enter the work. The enemy stood a moment, but...the British bayonet was amongst them, and they bolted...closely pursued by the Highlanders...After...the destruction of Mulka, the chief seat of the [Hindustani] fanatics, the rebel tribes surrendered to our forces and sued for peace, which was granted, hostages being taken to ensure the due observance of their engagements'.
