Which done, D'Harcourt himself went down the Donau, on his original scheme, with the remainder of his forces, now likewise become inadequate. He is to join with Feldmarschall Thorring in the" And does it, as we shall see presently!... MUNCHEN, 5th MAY. "Rumor of D'Harcourt had somewhat cleared Bavaria of Austrians; but the reality of him, in a divided state, by no means corresponds.
He was very high and arbitrary upon everybody; Anne and Anton Ulrich suffering naturally most from him. They took counsel with Feldmarschall Munnich on the matter; who, after study, declared it a remediable case.
Aide-de-Camp canters up a third time: 'Feldmarschall Munnich is for trying a scalade; hopes General Keith will do his best to co-operate! 'Forward, then! answers Keith; advances close to the glacis; finds a wet ditch twelve feet broad, and has not a stick of engineer furniture.
Friedrich snatches his glass, not with picturesque object: "See, yonder is Feldmarschall Browne, then! And pushes down into the Pascopol, into the hollows and minor troughs, which hide Browne henceforth, till we are quite near.
Moritz, still very busy, answered slightly; and Friedrich repeated louder, "Don't you hear that I congratulate you, Herr FELDMARSCHALL!" a glad sound to Moritz, who ever since Kolin had stood rather in the shadow. "You have helped me, and performed every order, as none ever did before in any battle," added the grateful King.
The old Feldmarschall Schulenburg whom we used to hear of once, whose Nephew, a pipeclayed little gentleman, was well known to Friedrich and us. For the rest, I do not think he feels this out-manoeuvring of the Russians very hard work.
This Wolfersdorf was himself a Pirna Saxon; serving Polish Majesty, as Major, in that Pirna time; perhaps no admirer of "Feldmarschall Bruhl" and Company? at any rate, he took Prussian service, as then offered him; and this is his style of keeping it. A decidedly clever soldier, and comes out, henceforth, more and more as such, unhappily not for long. Was taken at Maxen, he too, as will be seen.
Feldmarschall and relief will be here with despatch! and withdraws, Lacy and he, to the edge of the Pirna Country, there to be well out of harm's way. Lacy and he, it is thought, would perhaps have got beaten, trying to save Dresden from its misery. Lacy's orders were, Not, on any terms, to get into fighting with Friedrich, but only to cover Dresden.
The Captain Wartensleben, fellow-recipient of the mysteries at Brunswick, is youngest son, by a second marriage, of old Feldmarschall Wartensleben, now deceased; and is consequently Uncle, Half-Uncle, of poor Lieutenant Katte, though some years younger than Katte would now have been. Tender memories hang by Wartensleben, in a silent way!
Far on our left, or what was once our left, Ziethen with all his squadrons, nay Hulsen with most of his battalions, continued steady on the ground; and marched away at their leisure, as rear-guard. "It seemed," says Tempelhof, in splenetic tone, "as if Feldmarschall Daun, like a good Christian, would not suffer the sun to go down on his wrath.
