Of this work, the translator of Frederic's "Military instructions," 1762, himself an English officer, says :

...can

"Capt. Faucit, of the guards, obliged us, some time ago, with a translation of the King of Prussia's Regulations for the discipline of his army: but those Regulations. only be considered as the rudiments of the art of war, and therefore it is difficult to suppose, that so sublime a genius, as his present Prussian Majesty, could possibly waste his time in composing them. He certainly did not. The Regulations were originally the work of his father, who was an excellent Adjutant, and who, tho' a man of no genius at all, by the discipline of his troops, laid the foundation of his son's greatness."

"The latest and notablest of these [accounts], in regard to Mollwitz, is the Pamphlet of a Dr. Fuchs; from which, in spite of its amazing quality, we expect to glean a serviceable item here and there. It is definable as probably the most chaotic Pamphlet ever written; and in many places, by dint of uncorrected printing, bad grammar, bad spelling, bad sense, and in short, of intrinsic darkness in so vivacious a

humour, it has become abstruse as Sanscrit; and really is a sharp test of what knowledge you otherwise have on the subject. Might perhaps be used in that way, by the Examining Military Boards, in Prussia and elsewhere, if no other use lie in it? Fuchs's own contributions, mere ignorance, folly and credulity, are not worth interpreting: but he has printed, and in the same abstruse form, one or two curious Parish Manuscripts, particularly a History' of this War, privately jotted down by the then Schoolmaster of Mollwitz, a good simple accurate old fellow-creature; through whose eyes it is here and there worth while to look.'
