ENGLISH REPORTS OF WARLIKE PREPARATIONS
PRUSSIA CONCENTRATING HER FORCES
AMERICAN TELEGRAMs TAMPERED WITH
COMMENTS OF THE LONDON PRESS.
LONDON, Tuesday July 70, 1870.
There is no doubt that the Prussan troops are con-
eentrating near Baden and Mayence.
The Paris correspondent of he Pal Mall Gazette
states that many of the dispatches from Pans
to the United States have been delayed or altered
because they contained details of the preparations
making for war; He adds that the regimental bands
are busvpractcing the Marsellaise; and reproduces
fbe report of the Gaulos that the Emperors horses
after special training to accusOm them to artillery
fire have been sent to the frontier He also states
that Deputy Gambetta intends to make speech in
the Corps in which ne viii demand that the Gov
erpment insist on the fulfllment of the Treaty of
Prague and NJ AIago will oppose him in the interest
Of peace.
The TelegraDh saws that "Were Prussia to reply to
the French note exactly in the sense France de-
mands the fact would not guarantee peace an hour"
Referring TO the reported preparations for war on the
part of France The Telegraph regrets that fuller de-
tails of the movements cannot be ascertained. The
introduction of the Treaty of Prague into the con-
troversy, and the report that France will compel
Prugsias observance of it, are denied
The Telenaph says further that the statements
made by the English Ministers last evening in Par
hament discourage all hopes of peace. Even were
Prussia TO reply as France apparently desires, the
tact would afford no assurance OF peace.
