The report:

Hambourgh, Sept. 21. The 17th instant the Swedish forces quartered in the Dutchy of Bremen are to meet at a place appointed for their General Rendezvous. The Field Marshal Horne is lately passed the Elve, and 'tis believed intends to be present at the Muster; whither is also going in few days the Queen Christina, before whom the said forces are to be drawn up in Battalia and exercised, which done, a great part of them will be ordered to march out of the Dutchy, to be disposed of to other places, for the ease of the people; leaving only a number sufficient for the necessary Guard of the Countrey.
