Hague, Sept 3. Of all the wars that ever were made, none
was carried on so agreeably, as that in Italy has been since

politeness: The officers of both armies familiarly visit
each other from Quistello to Quingentolo, and vice versa.

this time a day, gives balls, opera's, comedies, and what
not? every day in his quarters at San Benedetto; and
sometimes the German generals assist thereat. . .
