Prussian War Actions Report From Upper Silesia and Konigsberg
Dispatches describe a Prussian counterattack at Graiz in Upper Silesia met by stout resistance, forcing retreat with heavy casualties and prisoners. Orders direct provisional defense staffing while reinforcements arrive as Polish ministers reject any terms beyond restoration of hereditary dominions. Konigsberg garrison withdraws, stores destroyed, brass cannons moved, merchants seek protection, and negotiations on trade conditions begin. Paris notes Clermont to Germany’s army and hints at England’s non-viable mediation as Russia redirects toward a German settlement.
