Berlin, May 9.  The 7th instant about two o'clock in the
afternoon, M. Sydow, a captain in Prince Charles's Regiment,
preceeded by ten postilions blowing their horns, arriv'd
here from the King's army in Silesia, with the agreeable
news that the Fortress of Breig surrendered the 4th instant. 
By the capitulation the commander is bound never to bear
arms against the King; the garrison is also obliged not to
serve against his Majesty for two years to come.
