Olmutz, March 15.  We have receiv'd this confirmation, that
the enemy had abandon'd the fort of Jabluncka, upon the
frontiers of Hungary: that they had withdrawn the troops
which they had sent to Teschin; and that the King of Prussia
had order'd the Army to assemble upon the frontiers of this
province, in order to begin the operations of the campain: 
the mean time our Hussars successfully continue their course
into Silesia.  A regiment of them a few days ago had a
rencounter with a large body of Prussian troops, over whom
they gain'd the advantage, kill'd about a hundred and took a
standard and two kettle-drums.
