up from bottom of long para.:]  Gen Wunsch acceded to the
capitulation, after a vain effort, with three regiments of
horse, to break through the Imperial posts that surrounded
them.  Thus we have taken from the Prussians, without almost
any effusion of blood, 18 battalions, 5 squadrons, 9
generals, 64 pieces of cannon, above 50 pair of colours, 25
standards, three pair of silver kettle drums, many tents,
baggage, etc.
