November 29th, Old Leopold is entering Saxony; and in the same hours, Podewils at Berlin, by order of Friedrioh, writes to Villiers who is in Dresden, about Peace, about mediating for Peace: "My King ready and desirous, now as at all times, for Peace; the terms of it known; terms not altered, not alterable, no bargaining or higgling needed or allowable.
