Our last advices from Europe mention, that the Emperor of Germany has lately issued orders for dismantling the Austrian Barrier, as it has been long called, the fortified towns of Brabant, in Flanders, by which the Dutch troops who, according to treaty, have garrisoned those towns, are at liberty to act elsewhere. All this looks like a perfectly good understanding between the Emperor and the Court of Versailles, since those towns were meant as a barrier against the power of France.
