His whole fortune depended on Connt Daun’s gétting. no notice that he had divided his army ; and yet the noife of the ¢annon, which might be héard in D.un’s camp, might have givén a fufpicion that his Majelty was engaged with Laudchn.

By, ; Exiralt of Letters frim Marfbal Broglic's Avmy, dated September P 5 Tt is sffured that on the g'h inft. we fhall pafs the Fulda, and confequently the Wefer.

It is faid that the Prince Henry Packet has brought over 70, or 80,000 Pagodas worth of Diamonds, and the cargees of the whole Fleet are reckoned worth nesr two Miilions fterling. - Yefterdsy Governor Cook, who: came home with Admiral Pocock front the Eaft Indies, arrived at his Houfe in Pall-Mall from Bombay. TEAS, from the number of fhips arrived from China may be realomably expected ata moderate price. . It is now tho’t that the French fqugdron, which lstely failed under the command of M. Rochmore, was ut firft defigned to intercept our Eaft India flcet, which is lately arrived. i The Devonthire, Hunter, from Bofton to London, is taken and carried into Galicia. / Adbvice from Paris fay, that the Court upon receiving bad news from Cansdaand the Eaft Indizs, had takena refolition to make, €ven late in the feafon as it is, & great effort in Germiany ; and if that fails them, a fepa= rate Peace will enfue, as the diforlered and diftreCted State of their Finances, snd their total Lofs of credit with foreign cotirts, make it impra&ticable for them to continue the war. Whenever pacific meafures take place, & very grest, if not a total change of the miniftry will enfue. . It is faid the Hle Dumst, on the coaft of France, which our fhipping lately tock, abounds ‘with sll the neceflaries of life; s proof of which, our feamen have already experienced. ; Extral of a private Letter from Waterford, Sept. 132 ¢ A fhip arrived here from Holland on Thurlday morning, the mafter of which (s very honeft man) (ays, that on the Day before he dailed (the 7thinft.) he faw & news paper, wherein it was inferted, thatthe King of Pruffis had fought Count Daun for two Days, killed multitudes, and intirely defeated him : He alfo fays, that he faw an exprefs from the Hague, who told him that he was fent with an account, that Prince Ferdinand had twice sttacked Broglio, and had entirely routed bim with great flaughter.” Qther letters fay, that Prince Henry, the King’s brother, had alfo attacked the Ruffisns snd gained a compleat victory over them.

Thisis fuppofed to he the effect of the advantageous offers which his Pruffian Majefty hath made to the Czarim ; which are warmly fupported by Great Britain. They write from the Camp of the Allies, that Prince Ferdinand wxs retutned to the army from the tour he made fncognito to Magdebourg. General Sporken had the commuand in his abfence. 'The French courier, Jately intercepted, carried a plan of Broglio's operations for the whole camnpaign, and that of a fufpenfion of armd in cafe the fucceis did not anfwer expe&tation. Some letters from Silefia mention, that the Pruflians hid gained confiderable wdvantages in two diffrent ac- tions with the Auftrians, the particulars of which were impatiently expefted. And that the King of Pruffis has deviched 10,000 men into Sixony. : " The French srmy under M.
