around the forts at Mayence have
been filled with water, and the works
at that place are considered impreg-
nable. The British Government is
considering the question of despatch
ing troops across the channel to pre-
serve the neutrality of Belgium. The
French Government has been notified
by the kingdoms of Wurtemburg and
Bavaria that they will join Prussia.
