M. Daun's head-quarters near Dresden, Nov. 22.  On the 20th,
a body of the enemy, consisting of between 17 and 20,000
men, having advanced to Maxen, with a design to get round
the Imperial Army, they were attacked on three sides at
once. . . [21 lines]  Thus we have taken from the Prussians,
without almost any effusion of blood, 18 battalions, 25
squadrons, 9 generals, 64 pieces of cannon, above 50 pair of
colours, 25 standards, three pair of silver kettle drums,
many tents, baggage, &c.
