"He formed a small magazine at Duben," says Archenholtz; "and was of a velocity, a sharpness,"-- like lightning, in a manner! Friedrich is uncommonly dangerous when crushed into a corner, in this way; and Daun knows that he is.

Friedrich's manoeuvrings upon Daun--all readers can anticipate the general type of them.

The studious military reader, if England boasts any such, will find punctual detail of them in TEMPELHOF and the German Books.

For our poor objects, here is a Summary which may suffice:-- From Lubben, having winded up these bad businesses,--and reinforced Goltz, at Glogau, to a 20,000 for Silesia's sake, to look towards Kosel and Loudon's attempts there,--Friedrich gathered himself into proper concentration; and with all the strength now left to him pushed forward (20th October) towards Wittenberg, and recovery of those lost Saxon Countries.

To Wittenberg from Lubben is some 60 miles;--can be done, nearly, in a couple of days.
