The Breslaw Gazette, under date of Kaliscb, 17th,
says—" The works of the fortifications of Warsaw
are now being carried on with extraordinary activity ;
a sufficient number of masons cannot be procured.
The works in the other fortresses and at the dykes of
the Vistula are also proceeding rapidly, and as these
works are connected with those of the railway from
Vienna to St. Petersburgb, the want of workmen is
severely felt."
