Vol. XIV. (of XXI.)

CHAPTER V
43/46

Britannic Majesty, as we observed, did then, almost simultaneously, in like manner march home; [Adelung, iii.

B, 192, 215; Anonymous, _Cumberland,_ p.
121.]--one goal is always clear when the day sinks: Make for your quarters, for your bed.
Prince Karl was gloriously wedded, this Winter, to her Hungarian Majesty's young Sister;--glorious meed of War; and, they say, a union of hearts withal;--Wife and he to have Brussels for residence, and be "Joint-Governors of the Netherlands" henceforth.

Stout Khevenhuller, almost during the rejoicings, took fever, and suddenly died; to the great sorrow of her Majesty, for loss of such a soldier and man.
[_Maria Theresiens Leben,_ pp.

94, 45.] Britannic Majesty has not been successful with his Pragmatic Army.

He did get his new Kur-Mainz, who has brought the Austrian Exorbitancy to a first reading, and into general view.
