''"A'"!'""'''' 'f" ei i e s ; the artillery was drawn up,
and ail pohible preparations made for an immediate
attack, which nis Majesty had resolved should take
place the next morning; but to the great astonish- .
incut of our monarch and his whole army, he received
011 the lame evening a flag of truce from the Emperor,
with the following milage: “ That his Imperial Ma

Z ftohia sense of humanity led to spare the lives
and b.ood of his innocent fubjeds, and was ready
to fettle the Bavarian affairs upon the principles
piopoied by his Prussian Majesty, in the course of
the late negociation. And that if his Prussian Ma
jesty would appoint a proper person for a frefh ne
gociation, hi s< Imperial Majesty would also call
nea , r hls mi ™ ftd ; arid that all contentions
and deferences ihould be finally fettled and deter

In consequence of this message the King has sent
orders to Count Finkenftein and Baron de Hertzberg,
his two privy cabinet minifiers, to come to him ; and
""A.'" ° m^-hers accordingly set out this afternoon
tojoin his Majesty at his camp near Jarowitz, in Bo

rellored. May Divine Providence grant us the en
joyment thereof many years to come.
