Tartary [3 TARTARY] was with the usual Ceremonies conducted
to his Audience, wherein he presented his Imperial Majesty
with his Creden=tial letters, and an excellent Horse as a
present from the Cham his Master. He has since entered upon
his business, which tends principally to sollicite the
Emperor not to favour the Great Duke [2 ???] of Muscovy [3
MUSCOVY] in his designs of obtaining the suc=cession to the
Crown of Poland [3 POLAND] for the young Prince [2 ???] his
son, but rather to imploy his Arms to oppose him; affirming
that the Grand Seignior has so far interessed himself in
this affair, that he intends to imploy some Minister to the
Diet held at Warsaw [3 WARSAW] to declare openly against the
designs of the Mosco=vite [2 ???] and to oppose, what may
be, the Election of the young Prince.
  The same Envoye gives out that the Grand Segnior ha=ving

Spanish Salt into his Kingdome, and for the introducing a
Trade of French Salt in the room of it; and that a French
Company might be estabished there for the management of the
Trade. His Majesty communicated these proposals to the
Colledge of Commerce, who upon con=sideration thereof,
returned their Answers to this effect: That the Spanish Salt
was necessary for them, for the support of their Fishing, no
other Salt being able so well to pre=serve their Fish; and
that they could not at all approve of the Establishment of a
French Company, which for several reasons they judged
prejudicial to their Commerce.

 From Warsaw [3 WARSAW] we are told, that the Convocation
there had spent much time in petty and particu=lar disputes,
so that 'twas believed, the short time allo ted for their
Session would pass over without any considerable effect. The
Generality seem to fear lest the Great Sums of money which
'tis reported are remitted from France [3 FR] may have
too great an influence upon the Election, which had
occasioned the proposal of two points: First, that no pe son
should have a Voice in the said Election, unless he would
first take an Oath, thathe had not directly, or indirectly
ta=ken or received any bribes for his endeavour to promote
any person to the Succession, and that he would according to
his conscience vote only for the interest of the publick.
And secondly, that no Candidate should be nominated out of
France [3 FR]. Which proposals, though meeting with
strong op=position and long cdebates, 'twas yet believed
would be at the last agreed to, if they were not already
passed. They farther tell us, that the young Prince [2 ???]
of Moscovy [3 MOSCOVY] and Prince [2 ???] of Lor=rain [3
LORRAIN] seemed at present to have the greatest interest
amongst the Electors; but the latter to stand in greatest
probability to succeed.
  Other letters from the same place inform us, that the
Moscovites had obtained another great victory over the
Tartars and Cossacks, who wereno longer able to keep the
field, in=somuch as they were now craving the assistance of
the Turks, from whom they expected the nomination of a new
General; but as yet that charge was no conferred on any
person, nor was it believed it would be before the next
Spring.

The Deputies imployed therein from the Mediators, have
received an answer from the E=lector, but not in such
satisfactory terms as they expected. The Abbot de Fournier
[2 ABBOT DE FOURNIER] Envoy extraordinary from the Duke of
Lorrain [2 DUKE OF LORRAIN] departed the first instant from
Spire [3 SPIRE] to give the said Duke his Master an account
of what has hitherto been transacted by the Deputies in that

the full hearing of his ob=jections, with the defence made
by the Prince, the whole Diet seemed much dissatisfied with
the same Prussian Depu=ty, and suspended him from his voice

to us the resolution of the besieged to endeavour the
removal of the Turks from their Posts as soon as the succors
shall arrive from Maltha [3 MALTA]
  The Grand Visier [2 GRAND VISIER]has lately received fresh
succors from the Captain Bassa, [2 CAPTAIN BASSA] which has
encouraged him to continue his Siege with much obstinacy;
having raised Terrasses a=bout his own Tent, and ordered
2000 of the stoutest of his soldiers to attend him this
Winter as his Guard. The Ene=my is said to have gained part
of the Out-works of the Fort St. Andre, [3 FORT ST. ANDRE]
where they have planted some Canon; which being opposed by
others from the Town, some small execu=tion has been done on
both sides. The Marquis de St. An=dre Montbrun [2 MARQUIS DE

recovery from his hurt, his Charge being in the mean time
execu=ted by the Duke de Roannez. [2 DUKE DE ROANNEZ]
  Some dayes since the Captain Bassa [2 CAPTAIN BASSA]
having a design upon the Venetian Gallies lying in the Port
of Standia, [3 PORT OF STANDIA] sailed with about 50 Gallies
to attack them, and if possible to fire them in the Port;
but the Venetians having intelligence of his design, came
out, intending to engage them as sea: but the Turks had not
the courage to attend them.
  General Morosini [2 GENERAL MOROSINI] intending the

desiring his exchange: who appearing in a Felucca with a
White Flag before Gio=siro, [3 GIOSIRO] and sending in the
import of his Message by some persons who were sent out to
him for that purpose; he had onely a short return made to
him from the Visier, that he lay there with intention to
take the City, ans not to treat about prisoners: with which
answer he was dismist. Chevalier Grimani [2 Grimani] is
preferred to the Vacant Charge.
  The said General has caused an Hospital to be erected at
Standia, [3 STANDIA] for the entertainment of the hurt and
sick persons which shall be removed from Candia, [3 CANDIA]
and has dispached se=veral ships to several parts upon the
Archipelago, to furnish it with all sorts of provisions.
  The Grand Segnior having admitted the Venetian Am=bassador
to an Audience, refused to hearken to any Treaty of a peace
till they should first deliver Candia [3 CANDIA] into his

 A Merchant ship lately arriving here from the Coasts of
Barbary, [3 BA COAST] informs us, that a great part of
the Countrey under the jurisdiction of the Grand Seg=nior,
[2 GRAND SEGNIOR] is in much apprehension of the intentions
of Tassilein; [2 TASSILEIN] fearing lest his great Victories
and Success, may induce him to turn his Forces upon them;
which obliges them to consult their own security, by
reinforcing their Frontier Garisons, and putting the
Countrey into a posture of defence, and by frequent
exercising them in Arms, to prepare them for ser=vice; that
they may be the better enabled to make oppositi=on upon any
Invasion.
  By the same ship we are farther advised, that three ships
of Maltha [3 MALTA] were lately set upon by four of the
Corsairs of Algiers, [3 ALG AF] who were returning
homewards with two Christi=an ships which they had taken
some dayes before and made prize; but that after a sharp
fight of several hours, the Vi=ctory fell to the Maltheses:
who had the good fortune to sink two of the Corsairs, giving
chace to the other two, and re-taking the Pizes, [5 ope]
which they afterwards set at li=berty.

  Yesterday the Cardinal \Landtgrave\[2 LANDTGRAVE] came
with an extraordinary Train to his Audience, in which in the
name of his Imperial Majesty[2 IMPERIAL MAJESTY], he
acquainted the Pope[2 POPE] with the news of the happy
delivery of the Empress[2 EMPRESS] of a Daughter, which has
been received with all the usual de=monstrations of joy by
all such as have dependence upon, or any kindness for the
Austrian Family; the Swisse Ambas=sadors especially having
for two nights made Bonfires at the gates of their Pallace;
and exposed lights at their win=dows. The Pope[2 POPE]
honouring them with his Order of Knighthood, was pleased in
the Ceremony as a farther ad=dition of his favour, himself
to put on their chains of Gold; ordering the Captain of his
Guards, a person of their own Countrey, to gird them with
their Swords; they have both received and returned their
visits to all the Grandees according to custom, excepting
only that they thought not fit to give the Ceremony of a
visit to the Queen of Sweden[2 QUEEN SWEDEN], she having
refused them a Treatment equal to the Ambassa=dors of

privity and consent of the Hungarian Nobility.
    Fourthly, that he would be pleased to grant and indulge

were by the piety and bounty of several of their Princes

con=strained with the loss of a great number of their people
to quit their posts: in this days service were no prisoners
ta=ken on either side, so that we are left only to guess at
the numbers which were killed and wounded on the Enemies
side, only by some Renegadoes which were since that Action
brought into Town, we learn that there is a great sad=ness
in the Turkish Camp, occasioned by the extraordinary loss of
their best soldiers and many Officers of note: of the
besieged were killed that day about 100 persons and many
wounded, amongst others who in that days service gave

in daily expectation of a larger assistance for the carrying
on of that Siege, to which the Visir is strongly pressed by
the Grand Seignor, who being grown impatient of the length
of it, has by his late Letters in much passion branded the
Visir with the name of Coward and Ignorant, who with all the
strength of the Ottoman Empire, and the expence of so much
Blood and Trasure, has not been able in two years time to
prevail against a single town: which has wrought in him a
great apprehension lest this or some o=ther ill succes may
provoke the Sultan to require his head: which is not a
little encreased upon the late arrival of some Turks in his
Camp, who assure him, that both at \Constan=tinople\[3

people were ready to fall into tumults and disorders,every

which have be=fallen them upon this war, and that the

General had designed to make a lusty sally upon the Enemy,
lying before the bulwark \St.Andre\[3 BULWARK ST.ANDRE], to
endeavour to dislodge the Turks from that post, the issue
whereof we may expect hereafter: they tell us, that since
the before-mentioned assault, the Visier despairing to
effect anything by open force, bestows all his contrivance
upon the Mines, which the besieged are as busily
endea=vouring to illude, and have happily by their
Countermines defeated them in their great hopes of the
success of one of their mines which they had wrought into
the Town.

the ease of the people; besides this, desiring the liberty
of his Secretaries Brother after his long imprisonment:
these his demands being communicated to the Council, they
sent to let him know, that if he would dismiss the people
which were about him and shew his respects to the King and
Council by retiring to \Confuegra\[3 CONFUEGRA], his
Secretaries Brother should be sent to him, but that the
Articles which he pro=posed were of so great consequence and

with success, and return with many heads of the Enemies, and

          They farther say, that the Grand Visier being
informed that the greater part of the French adventurers
were re=imbarked and returned homewards, immediately called
a Council of his Officers, where after a long debate it was
resolved, that the Army should be drawn out, and that an
assault should be made at the same time upon the Bulwarks
\[3 SABIONERA]Sabionera\ and \St.Andre\[3 ST.ANDRE], hoping
that the departure of the French might have much abated the
courage of the besieged, and opened a way to them for an
easie and speedy Conquest; and accordingly 4000 men were
appointed in the night at each place, to fall on with allthe
fury imaginable, which they put into execution, and for two
hours continued the assault with much obstinacy, but they
found such warm en=tertainment in both places, that
despairing of success, they retreated to their posts,
leaving the ground covered with their dead, and carrying off
a great number of wounded men, the besieged having not in
this assault lost above forty men.

confirm the news of the Turks attempts upon the depar=ture

loss of men, only adding that the Enemy having suf=fered
much by their frequent sallies made upon them from the Town,
and by the many Granados and Mortars which fell in amongst
them in their Posts to the great disturb=ance and loss of
men, endeavoured by their watchfulness to prevent the one,
and by well covering their Hutts to secure themselves
against the other, but in both failed of their purpose; the
Town being well reinforced with able men, frequently by
their sallies beating them from their posts, and the
Granados falling in upon them, tearing in pieces their
coverings, and firing amongst them with great execu=tion.

been of late tired out by continual service and hard duty,
in the se=veral posts wherein he had placed them, with
little advan=tage in his Siege, was resolved to manage the
work with greater husbandry, and for his security had
changed his own Quarter, removing towards the River

who had for seve=ral years given sufficient testimonies of
their valour by their good service against the Turks in the
Kingdom of \Candia\[3 CANDIA], amongst others his Excellency
\Leonardo Moro\[2 LEONARDO MORO] from his employment in the

 *IT  369c
          By the same ships we have Letters of no old Date,
which only tell us that our people continue with much
diligence to observe each motion of the Enemy against the
Town, who as yet remain in their posts before the
\Sabionera\[3 SABIONERA] and \St. Andre\[3 ST.ANDRE]
trusting more to their Mines under ground then to their own
valour, though in both they have not had any great reasons
of late to make their boasts: On the contrary, the besieged
had lately so good success in one of their Mines, which all
the Enemies ob=servation could not discover, that giving
fire to it, they de=stroyed some hundreds of the Turks, and
amongst them a Turkish Engineer, in whom they had reposed
much confidence, and whose direction they had followed in
drawing the Line about the Town, and in making of all their
approaches.

#

 *IT  369d
          They farther tell us, that the Visier in revenge
of this loss received, resolved to make his return upon the
Town, and accordingly sprang a Mine neer the Bulwark
\St.An=dre\[3 ST ANDRE], which though it had not the effect
he desired upon the Work, yet he commanded his people
immediately to attempt it with their Ladders, which they
obeyed and fell on with much noise and fury, but they found
such readi=ness and courage in the defendants to receive
them, that after a great loss of men and many of their
Ladders which our men by plain force drew up from them, they
were forced to give off the assault and return to their
posts, to the great trouble and vexation of the Visier, who
does not yet despair of giving a good account of his Siege,
as he has by two of his favourites signified to the Sultan,
but desires a speedy and a strong succur may be sent him to
enable him to carry on the work.

great preparations made for the Carrying on of the War this
Summer against the Republick[3 VE], and for the entire
Conquest of \Candia\[3 CANDIA], upon which the Grand
Seg=nior[2 TGS] is wholly intent; and for that end has made
extraordi=nary provisions of all Necessaries for the supply
of a vast Army which he designs for that service; but 'tis
believed he will n[]t be ab[]e to send such numbers of men
into the Field as was expected: the warm service which they
are sensible of, and the great loss of men they have already
re=ceived before the Town of \Candia\[3 CANDIA],
discouraging others from entring too hastily into that
Employment, especially since the Christian Princes have
shewn themselves so ready to lend their assisting hands for
the supp[]rt of the Veneti=ans[2 VE]: about a thousand
Turkish soldiers[3 TR] raised in \Asia\[3 ASIA] for the
recruit of the Visier's[2 TV] Army, and lying ready at
\Ale=xandria\[3 ALEXANDRIA] to be imbark[]d, upon the News
arriving there of the success of the besieged in the Mines,
and the loss of men su[]tained by the Turks[2 TR] upon some
Sallies made out of the Town, fell into a mu[]iny, and
plainly refusing the ser=vice, disbanded themselves; and had
slain the Bassa who endeaver'd to appease them, had he not
timely conveyed himself into a place of security.

of his incensed Ma=ster; to whom he has given frequent
assurances of perfect[]ing that Wo[]k, is with more
earnestness th[]n ever em=ploied in the Siege, using all his
Oratory for the incou=ragement of his people; hoping by his
many Mines and constant plying of his Guns, to make himself
Master of one of the gates; but has not yet effected any
thing consi=derable: Onely Colonel \Jean Battista Zacco\[2

to have taken a Gallery from the Enemy near \Santo
Spirito\[3 SANTO SPIRITO], was unfortunately buried in one
of their Mines; but the general sending out a strong party,

sacred place.

Tribunal or Court, erected in the Pa=lace-yard, in presence
of the Prince and Princess[2 PPO AND PSPO], with a great
number of the Nobility and Gentry, in which 80 persons were
brought to their Tryal, having a Banner of the Cross carried
before them, supported by the Domini=cans; after a Sermon
preached upon that occasion, the Prisoners were brought one
by one before an Altar raised in the midst of the Tribunal,
and there detained, whilst their Accusation and Sentence was
read. One person only a Priest accused of Sodomy and some
other Crimes, was condemned to be degraded, to forfeit his
Estate and to be sent for ten years to the Gallies. The rest
were accused of Judaisme, of which some came out in black
habits with a Candle in their hands, these hav[]ng not
sufficient proof against them, were dismist, paying onely
their charges. A second sort appearing in yellow Coats, with
a Red Cross, who being accused for that being born
Christians, they had lived after the Law of \Moses\[1 LAW OF
MOSES], which was evidenced against them, were declared
Jews, but promising for the future to live in obedience to
the Pope[2 P1] and the Roman Ca=tholick Church[2 ROMAN
CATHOLICK CHURCH], were condemned only to the forfeiture of
their Goods, and by a stroke on the head with a Rod, and the
sprinkling with Holy water, again received in=to the Church.
Only one of the Prisoners, a Priest, ap=peared in a
Flame-coloured Coat, with his Picture on the forepart of it;
who having sufficient evidence brought in of his Judaizing,
and having confessed that he believed a man might be saved
by either Law, and therefore himself observed sometimes the
one, and other times the other, was declared an Apostate[1
APOSTATE], and sentenced to be degraded to forfeit all his
Estate, and to be farther punisht according to Law, and
accordingly was there presently degraded and delivered to
the secular Justice, in whose Court he was condemned to be
burnt to ashes, and those to be thrown into the River, and
his name to be infamous, which was presently put in
execution, but he choosing to die a Chri=stian, had the
favour to be first strangled.

of the publick peace of the Empire, whivh the Prince[2 ADOLPH JOHANN PFA TY]
has endeavoured to answer, justifying himself upon his
bargain made with him for the County of \Rixinguen\[3
RIXINGUEN], upon which he had advanced a considerable summe
of Moneys, but alledg=ing that the Count[2 COUNT OF
RIXINGUEN] had used several subtle practices, and not dealt
fairly with him upon the Contract, that he had seised upon
the Revenues arising from the County[3 RIXINGUEN], and made
himself the first Aggressor, and could not with reason
com=plain of a return; but excusing the excess committed by
the Soldiers in plundering the Castle, for which they had no
Order; at the last offering for the ending of all farther
controversie to give up his bargain and disanul the
Con=tract, on condition, the Moneys which he had advanced
upon it may be restored to him: 't[]s believed, the

with Men and Provisions for the relief of the Visiers[2 TV]
Camp, who is more then ever earnest in his Siege, intending
to use all his Arts for the gaining of the place before the
arrival of those great succors which are expected this
Summer, which he fears may oblige him to raise it, to his
great dishonour after the expence of so much time, men and
Moneys; to which end he plyes them with his Cannon and
Granados, and especially by his Mines in which he reposes
most con=fidence, and upon all advantages he receives by
them gives furious assaults to the Town, but by the
excellent conduct of the General and Monsieur \de St.Andre
Montbrun\[2 MONSIEUR DE ST.ANDRE MONTBRUN] ( who to the
great satisfaction and encouragement of the besieged, is
perfectly recovered of his hurt) they have hitherto been in

Lightning, which was immediately followed with such violent
tremblings of the Earth, that many Buildings were thrown
down by its violence, and the Mountain a=bove \Malpasso\[3
MALPASSO] opening at the same time, threw up such quantities
of Brimstone, Fire, Smoke, and Ashes, as in=finitely
terrified the Neighbourhood, and seemed to threat=en the
whole Island[3 SICILY] with destruction. This great body of

branch of it falling upon the Lands of the \Anunciata di

every where destroying all things in its way, with several
of the people, who had not timely conveyed themselves to a

immediately their recourse to Heaven, exposing their most
Sacred Relicks as in a time of the greatest dan=ger and
extremity; and to adde to their calamity, and to drive them
farther into despair, some few nights after this first
Eruption, the Mountain above \Buonpeleri\[3 BUONPELERI] sent
forth as great a flame as the other, with such prodigious
quantity of Ashes as covered the whole Countrey; then and
the following days so filling the air, that the day could
scarcely be distinguisht from the night; and all this

which came thence on the 7th of the last moneth[7], the
Master of the Vessel giving this account of the affairs of
the S[]ege; that the Town con=tinues to d[]fend it self with
extraordinary courage and va=lour against the Turks[2 TR],
to which they are encouraged by the Example and Conduct of
the Marquis \de St.Andre Montbrun\[2 MARQUIS DE ST.ANDRE
MONTBRUN], who is perfectly recovered from his wounds; that
the Garrison within the Town consists of about 8000 able
soldiers, and that the Venetians[2 VE] Fleet was able upon
any occasion to assist them with 6000 more, without any
great prejudice to themselves; and that the whole Army of
the Turks[2 TR] before the Town is not conceived to excead
the number of twenty thousand men, that those lay well
forti=fied in their Trenches, but made their most
considerable attempts upon the Bulwarck \St.Andre\[3 BULWARK
ST.ANDRE], against which they had with much labour raised a
high Mount, on the top whereof they had made a Battery, on
which they had plan=ted two Guns of extraordinary bigness,
with which and their small shot they fired continually upon
the Town; by vertue whereof they were encouraged to make
frequent as=saults upon the Bulwark, wherein they had made a
consi=derable breach, on which they had twice lodged
themselves: but by the Mines and Valour of the besieged,
were beaten off with great slaughter; farther affirming that
the besieged being infinitely annoyed by the said Mount, had
with much labour and diligence made two Mines under it,
springing the first of them of 150 Barrels of Powder, with
such success, that the two Guns were buried in the ruins of
the Battery; in which were also killed 800 Turks[2 TR], and
about 400 wounded: after which, the Turks[2 TR] endeavo=red
to restore and repair again their Battery, and had plant=ed
more Guns upon it; but then the besieged firing the second
Mine, wholly ruined the Mount, and freed them=selves from
that great annoyance, with a loss of a great number of the
Turks[2 TR].

were true that they had a General, and desiring to be
admitted to his presence, which being re=solved in, and
presented to him, the Chiaus delivered to him a Letter from
the Grand Segnior[2 TGS] in which he thanked the Cossacks
for their inclinations to submit to his protecti=on and
Gouvernment, assuring them that they should enjoy far
greater priviledges then ever they had from \Poland\[3

Government of \Va=lachia\[3 VALACHIA], and as a testimony of
their obedience to him assist him with 40000 men in his wars
against \Venice\[3 VENICE]; this Let=ter was read to the

and promised their obedience; and at the same time were
opened several Trunks, out of which the Chiaus distributed
many rich vests among the most principal persons of the
Assembly, as Presents from the Grand Segnior[2 TGS] his

expect the issue and success  of his Mines, by which he has
not yet got any considerable advan=tages by reason of the
great vigilancy and care of the be=sieged, who by their

from other parts, we find the Visier[2 TV] more intent then
ever upon that work, and encourag=ing his people to improve
their valour to the utmost, before the forces of the
Christian Princes can be united and trans=ported into the
Island: that for some time he was willing to attend the
success of his Mines, in which he had reposed much
confidence, thinking by this means to be as little
ex=pensive and profuse of the lives of his people as he
could, his numbers being not over considerable before the
Town, and his expectation of fresh forces often frustrated,
but finding little success in these underground designes,
and having lost a considerable number of his men by the
happy firing of the Mines by the Venetians[2 VE], to the
utter ruine of his Mount and battery before the Work
\St.Andre\[3 ST.Andre], in which he lost above 1000 men. He
since in much fury meditating revenge, ordered a fierce
assault to be given to that part wherein they had before
made a considerable breachm which continued for some time
with dubious success and great slaughters, but the valour of
the besieged in the end forced them to retreat, to the great
vexation as well as loss to the Visier[2 TV], and greater
discouragement to his Army; nor had the Christians an easie
victory, but besides the loss of many soldiers, several

the Town of \Candia\[3 CANDIA], were in all of them beaten
off by the great valour and courage of the Defendants, in
which, the loss of the Turks[2 TR] could not be computed
less then of 6000 men; that the Visier[2 TV] after so many
losses and discourage=ments has not given over his hopes
that he shall yet at the last make himself Master of the
place, he has therefore ordered all the labourers about his
Camp to be again employed in raising a new Mount and Battery
in the place of that which was lately blown up by the
besieged, and is so confidently perswaded of the strength of
his Line, that he ordered the Chevalier \Aloisio Molino\[2

from \Canea\[3 CANEA], to whom he assigned the best Quarter
in the Camp, entertaining him with much civility, shewing
him all his Works, and afterwards sent him back again into

for the little advance he had made in his Siege after three
years time spent up=on that one City, with an expence of Men
and Treasure enough to have sufficed for the conquest of
Kingdoms; and that the Visier[2 TV] being much dissatisfied
with this message, resolved to enter upon some considerable
action in his pre=sence, and accordingly drew out the men
brought by the Basta for his assistance, to whom he j[]yned
the choicest sol=diers of his Army, and commanded a furious
assault to be given to the Bulwark \St.Andre\[3 BULWARK
ST.ANDRE] and the Ravelin \di Santo Spirita\[3 RAVELIN DI
SANTO SPIRITA], but they were in both places received with
so much courage and resolution, that after more then an hour
spent in a sharp dispute, the Turks[2 TR] despairing of
success began to retire themselves, but in their Re[]reat
ab[]ut 5000 of them happening to pass over a Mine made by
the besieged of 150 barrels of Powder, it was so happily
fired, that about 3000 Turks[2 TR] were blown up and killed,
and the rest much hurt and disordered, in which confusion
the besieged sallying out, did a considerable execution upon
the rest, and took prison|ers about a thousand of them,
returning with much tri=umph and little loss into the Town.

occasion a Member of the House called \Galeski\[2 GALESKI],
publickly accused Segnior \Pazzi\[2 SEGNIOR PAZZI], Great

of Senators, and the Sieur \Gelinsky\[2 SIEUR GELINSKY]
Grand Huntsman of the Kingdom of Bribery, of the Equestrian

that the House was with much difficulty moved to give him
time till the next day to fortify his Charge.

( contrary to the ancient Custom ) two ranks of Benches were
set up behind the Senators seats for the reception of the

disgusted, went away, saying they would return when those

again what farther proof \Galeski\[2 GALESKI] was able to
bring in a=gainst the beforesaid accused Members, but
finding nothing material, he insisting chiefly upon common
Report, the Mareshal declared that these accusations did not
at all preju=dice the Honour of \Gelinski\[2 GELINSKI], and
so threw it out of the House, and 'tis believed Segnior
\Pazzi\[2 SEGNIOR PAZZI] will not only be cleered by the
Senators, but that satisfaction will be also required for
the scandal.

attended, see=ing at last the Cross which is usually carried

 *IT ??? From \Sardigne\[3 SARDIGNE] we are advised, that
the Duke \de St.Germains\[2 DUKE DE ST.GERMAINS] Vice-Roy of
that Isle[3 SARDIGNE], who was falsly reported to be dead,
having thought himself able enough with 4000 men which he
had under h[]s Command, to revenge the death of his
Predecessor, according to his private Orders from the Court
of \Spain\[3 SPAIN], imprisoned some of the principal Lords
of that Island[3 SARDIGNE], and in form of Ju=stice caused
two of them to be publickly executed; which ex=ceedingly
enraged all those persons who were engaged or al=lied to
them in blood or other ties of friendship, who by several
arts engaged the rest of the Nobility in their quarrel,
which they secretly undertook to revenge; but undeavouring[5
OPE] to put it into execution, could not act with so much
privacy, but that the Vice-Roy being informed of their
designs, endeavoured to arrest the most active persons of
the Conspiracy; which occasioned an Insurrection of all the
rest; to whom joyned a considerable part of the peo=ple, in
so much as within the space of four dayes a great part of
the Island and above half the City of \Cagliari\[3 CAGLIARI]
was got into Arms: whereupon Letters were immediately
di=spatched from the Vice-Roy into \Sicily\[3 SICILY],
\Naples\[3 NAPLES], and \Mi=lan\[3 MILAN], pressing for a
speedy assistance for the suppression of this insurrection,
which threatned the loss of the whole Island[3 SARDIGNE]; in
return whereof Don \Pedro d'Arragon\[2 DON PEDRO D'ARA SP]
Vice-Roy of \Naples\[3 NAPLES] immediately embarked 600 men
for his as=sistance; and the Governour of \Milan\[2

\Finale\[3 FINALE], to be transported for the same service;
and 'tis believed that the D. \d'Ossune\[2 D. D'OSSUNE] may

themselves nearer the sea, having great apprehensions of the
Mines which the be=sieged have so often fired to their great

melancholly and dissatisfied, and held frequent Coun=cils
with his most confident friends about the present
emer=gencies; that he was grown suspicious of the forces
about him, bu[5 OPE] for his security had committed the care
of his per=son to the Guard of 8000 Turkish soldiers[2 TR],
having dismis=sed many Renegados and Greeks[2 GR], but yet
had ordered that they should be transported into \Canea\[3

brought to their knowledge, they fell into a mutiny, and
with their swords in their hands protest=ed against that
service, openly declaring, that nothing should induce them
to bear arms against their own Countrey.

for intelligence, they have hopes that they are now freed
from all apprehensions of the Turks[2 TR] invading that
Countrey this Summer; that the Turks[2 TR] had indeed gotten
together 16 or 20 thousand men, but of these a great part
were immediately disband=ed, and of these no small numbers
diseased and unfit for service; the rest by an express order
from the GrandSegnior[2 TGS], commanded to march into

pleased to succeed the Crown, and as to his own particular
he should neither exclude the Prince of \Conde\[2 PRINCE OF

a Traytor: He has taken money, and would have more. But the
Bishop of \Cracovy\[2 BISHOP OF CRACOVY] appeased the noise,
by crying alowd, Let \Conde\[2 PRINCE DE CONDE] be Excluded;
all the rest of the Bishops following him in the same Vote,

placed himself, not vouchsafing to stirre his Bonnet, or to
take any notice at all of the Assembly; this want of

the Envoye observing, in much anger he told them he knew how

CHASTILAN OF POLAND] has moved in the Diet, that several
points may be insisted on as obligatory to the succeeding
King;
  1. That he shall habit himself according to the custome
  and fashion of that Kingdom[3 POLAND], and if he be not a
Native, shall
  as soon as may be learn the Language.
  2. That he shall not hearken to any proposals of
mar=riag[],
  or at farthest, take a Wife without the consent of the
States.
  3. That when married, the Queen shall not interest her
  self or meddle in affairs of State.
  4. That the Salick Law[1 SALICK LAW] shall be in force in
\Poland\[3 POLAND] as
  it is in \France[3 FR], so that no Female shall
succeed to the Crown.
  5. That whoseoever shall be elected to the Crown, shall
  engage never to resigne it, to which some others desired
  might be added, that only the natives should be preferred
  to Offices and places of Trust, and that for the future no
  foreign Minister should be permitted to continue long
  within the Kingdom[3 POLAND], as had done the Resident
from

spent near 30 years in the Kingdom.

us, that the Enemy continued to press the City on all parts,

on the side of \St.Andre\[3 ST.ANDRE], where his Excellency
Segnior Cavalier \Cattarino Cornaro\[2 CAVALIER CATTARINO
CORNARO] the Proveditor extraordinary of the Ar=mata, whilst
he was diloigently on that side taking care for the defence
of the place, was unfortunately killd by a Gra=nado, to the
infinite loss and grief of the whole Garrison, he having by
his great Valour, Vigilancy and Conduct been extraordinarily
instrumental in the preservation of the City, and his name
terrible to the Turks[2 TR].

themselves with much greater slaughter of the Enemy, but
that Segnior \Juanne Morosini\[2 SEGNIOR JUANNE MOROSINI]
the new Proveditor was lately arrived with a strong Convoy
and above 3000 able soldiers, amongst which were those sent
by the Prin=ces of \Brunswick\[2 PRINCE OF BRUNSWICK],

landed a large supply of all sorts of Provisions and some
Moneys, which had added no small courage to the Defendants,
which they abundantly testify'd by their shouts, and the
frequent discharge of their Artillery upon the Enemy, who
are now grown hopeless of any success of their so long
siege.

the Mareshal of the nobless re=tiring themselves protested

them, said, they should soon make choice of new Mareshals;

himself, till they threatening to oblige the Bishop of

appeared in the field with the two Mareshals, and according
to custome de=manded three times, that if they were agreed
upon the Election they should name the person, which they
did with great acclamations, accompanied with the discharge
of all the Cannon in the neighbouring parts: about 8 in the

which in this conjuncture of time might provoke the
Christians within his Territories to give him some
disturbance, has ordered Commissioners to be sent to all the
parts of his Empire, to make enquiry how the Christians have
been dealt with by the several Bassa's and other Officers of
the respective Provinces and countries, empowwring them to
punish such officers as shall be convicted of any unjust
proceeding against them, the Sultan desiring they should in

themselves; and has given Order to all his Bassa's who have

the Town, by his Courage and Vigilancy encouraging the

in=telligence with the Enemy.

entertained the Captains and Of=ficers with much respect and
honour, disposing of the soldi=ers into convenient Quarters
for their repose, and order=ing them to be well furnisht
with all necessary refresh=ments after their Voyage; that
the soldiers seem with impatiency to desire to show their
Valour upon the Enemy, by some sally or other attempt, for
which the general has promised to give them a fair occasion;
and that with this ad=dittional force the Garrison is said
to consist of about 14 thousand able soldiers, a sufficient
number ( as 'tis hoped ) to entertain the Visier[2 TV] upon
any assaults he shall make upon it.

Army, intending if they succeed and prove victorious, to put
him=self into the Town and to new fortifie it; but if they
fail in the attempt, then to with-draw to a greater distance
from the Town, and to put the Army into the best posture he
is able to attend the landing of the forces designed thither
from the Christian Princes for the raising of the Siege; for
which end and purpose he has ordered the soldiers to be paid
their arrears, and has made choice of \Mustapha Bassa\[2

12 thousand men to be in readiness for this service, with

of Courage in this last attempt.

opportunities upon the besieged, had with much silence drawn
his strength together, ordering them to fall suddenly upon
the battered and most ruined parts of the Town in the midst
of the night, hoping to find the Venetians[2 VE] at such a
time indulging themselves with sleep and less careful for
their defence, and consequently that an easie way might lie
open to his people for the Conquest of the place. The
Turks[2 TR] in obedience to his Commands, marched up the
breaches with as much silence as was pos=sible, and being
ready to assault, fell suddenly on with loud cryes and all
the Terror imaginable, but to their astonish=ment they found
the Garrison in such readiness to receive them, that after
some time spent in a vain attempt, they soon found by their
great loss of men, that all their farther obstinacy would
onely turn more and more to their own ruine and therefore in
some disorder retired them=selves within their Line.

before in=tended upon the \Sabionera\[3 SABIONERA] and

terror into the minds of the Turkish[2 TR] soldiers, is an
account given them by their spies, that the guard and
defence of those places is committed to such sol=diers, who
some years since had given great proofs of their courage on
many occasions in \Hungary\[3 HUNGARY] during the late wars

finding that the Turks[2 TR] pressed hard upon them,
especially at the Bulwark of \St.Andre\[3 ST.ANDRE],
resolved to endeavor to re=move them, and accordingly made a
strong sally, with so much courage and success, that in

and ruined a Breast-work which they had thrown up at the
foot of the Bastion, and forcing the Enemy to observe a
greater distance, had time to re=pair a considerable breach
which the Turks[2 TR] had made in their Retrenchment about
the neck of the Bastion, but that the greatest confidence of
the Defendants is in the arrival of the succors which they

Feavor, which flies up in the head of the diseased, and has
carried off some numbers of their people.

desired that a cause of theirs might be first stated, in
re=ference to an Estate now in the possession of the
Princess of that name[2 PRINCESS ZAMOSKI], Mother to the
present King[2 KPL], who claims it, as inheriting to the
late Prince \Zamoski\[2 PRINCE ZAMOSKI], to which the King[2

interests and pretensions, but the majority of voices
overbearing them, they fell upon the Articles, putting off
this cause till the Diet for the Coronation.

referring the whole affair with that about the Salt to the

          the next point was, That the succeeding King[2

Genera;l of \Lythuania\[3 LYTHUANIA] now possessed by the
Duke \Michael Radzevil\[2 DUKE MICHAEL RADZEVIL], who is
also Vive-Chancellor of the same place, which began to be
debated with much heat, the said \Polobinski\[2 POLOBINSKI]
being seconded by the Family of the \Pazzi\[2 PAZZI], but
the Arch-Bishop of \Gnesne\[2 ARCH-BISHOP OF GNESNE] and the

according to the Kings[2 KPL] promise upon his Nomination,
and that they might be either presently setled in the Estate
contended for, or have a firm promise made them of such a
firm settlement, but a great Rain falling, dismissed the

          On Munday \July\ 1[7] The Director of the Assembly
de=siring to proceed upon the \Pacta Conventa\, the Brethren
\Zamoski\[2 ZAMOSKI] opposed it, plainly saying, they would
consent to nothing, no not the Election of the King[2 KPL],
till their cause was first determined; several Speeches were
hereupon made with much Oratory, but the \Zamoski\[2
ZAMOSKI] perceiving nothing would be done for them, made a
prorestation of the Nul=lity of any thing that should pass,
and went out of the Assembly; the Diet fell then to examine
the Legality of this protestation, which if good would
dissolve the said Assem=bly, but concluded it faulty, as
being not made in due time, and a motion was made, that the
\Zamoski\[2 ZAMOSKI] should be decla=red Rebels, if they
persisted in their protestation, but twas at last more
mildly concluded that they should be sent to one=ly to

another, and with their swords dispute the General=ship of

intelligence, sent to them, requiring them to desist from
their violent pur=poses, lest they obliged him to send his
circular Letters to the Nobless of \Poland\[3 POLAND], to
proceed against them as Rebels of the State, and disturbers
of the publick peace.

which the besieged defended with much courage, and repaired
by night what was beaten down by day; and that they had
sprung a Mine under the Turks[2 TR] battery upon the ruines
of the Bastion, of 150 barrels of Powder, which blew up some
hundreds of the Turks[2 TR], with four of their Guns, but
the besieged  had on the other side lost the Noble \Piero

Conduct, by a Bombe, which breaking, mortally wounded
another Officer, but the Captain-General who was between

that the Turks[2 TR] improving all their force and skill for
the gaining of that City before the great succors should
have time to land had by their Mines and Assaults made
themselves masters of almost all the ruined Bastion \S.
Andre\[3 BASTION S. ANDRE], leaving only a part of an
Orillon to be contended for, which was with extraordinary
courage made good by the Defendants, and many Mines were
sprung on both sides, and attempts made with much slaughter
and various success; but the besieged fearing the event of
this too near neighborhood of the Enemy, resolved to give
them a warm entertainment, and accordingly the Captain
General drawing together a considerable body of the choicest
and most daring men in the whole Garrison, made a stout
sally out from the breach, which the Turks[2 TR] not being
able to endure, deserted their Posts, and gave the besieged
time to cast up a small defence, by which they obliged the
Turks[2 TR] to keep at a farther distance; and though the
Enemy made several bold attempts to disturb them in their
work, they so well made good the advantage they had gotten,
that the Turks[2 TR] were in every assault beaten back with
great loss, and as much despair of success, since in one
action the besieged had taken from them what they had been
many moneths before getting from them.

          By some Turkish Renegados[2 TR] which lately stole
from the Camp into the City, the Captain-General was
informed, that some few ships had taken the advantage and
opportunity of the darkness of the nights to put into
\Canea\[3 CANEA], and had landed above 1000 men for the
assistance of the Visier[2 TV], who reposes but little
confidence in this additional force the men being all of
them such as had never seen the wars, who came not out of

sweetmeats, Fruits, and excellent Wines; from thence he was
entertained with a Play at the Theatre, and afterwards with
a Ball in the great H[  ]; which ending, and the Company
taking their seats, a Curtain was suddenly drawn up at one
end of the Room, wherein appeared a glorious appartment well
lighted and in the midst of it a Table whereon was erected a
Pyramid of excellent sweet meats, which by some hidden
Engine conveyed the Table into the midst of the great Room,
and exposed the Banquet to the Company; from thence the
Prince[2 PRINCE OF TUSCANY] was invited into the Garden
which was extraordinarily lighted, the Fountains all
running, for some time, but then stopping, there brake out
upon a sudden with much noise, great quantities of Fireworks
which filled the air with Rockets, which had not so pleasant
an issue as was desired; for a Guard of Horse being placed
in a part of the Garden, their horses were so terrified with
those sudden fires and noyse, that falling into a great
disorder most of the Riders were thrown to the Ground, and
one of them falling with his rider upon a young Lady a
Daughter of Monsieur \Colbert\[2 MONSIEUR COLBERT], so much
bruised her that she was taken up as dead, and continues

afterwards by the Premier President, and then by the
Chancellour with Speeches,, the latter in the conclusion
demanding the verifying of several Edicts according to His
Majesties[2 KF] pleasure, to which the President answered,
that His Majesty[2 KF] should be obeyed, though none of them
had been communicated to him either by word or writing; the
Edicts were many, tending to the Regulation of Justice,
encouragement of Trade, the suppression of some Officers and
the Creation of others among the rest, one encouraging the
Gentry to Trade without any derogation from their Nobility,
and another for prohibiting all French[2 FR] from
establishing themselves in any forreign Countrey, and
recalling such as are already abroad. The Duke of

Chamber \des Comts\, and the Prince[2 FR PRINCE] to the

Command from the Grand Segnior[2 TGS] to strangle the
Treasurer of the Army[2 TR TREASURER], and to rai[]e his
Siege, and to Transport his forces to \Constantiniople\[3
CONSTANTINOPLE], had returned for answer, that the
Treasurer[2 TR TREASURER] had gained so much upon the
affections of the soldiers, that it was not in his power to
obey his Commands in that point; and as to the other, that
he could not presently raise his Siege without great
dishonour, but would endeavour to prevent the disgrace of it
by proposing a Treaty; and in Order thereunto, sent to the
Venetian Ambassador \Molino\[2 VE AMBASSADOR MOLINO], then
at that time under a close confinement in \Canea\[3 CANEA],
to let him know, that if he continued his former desire of
proposing Articles of a peace, he was ready to close with
him, to which the Ambassador answered, that the face of
affairs was much changed since his arrival, and that he had
no power to Treat without first acquainting the Senate,
which he accordingly did by an Express; the Senate hereupon
dispatched away two Couriers, one to the Pope[2 P1] and
another to His most Christian Majesty[2 KF], whom they
desired as Allies to joyn with them in the Treaty; His most

that the affronts which he pretends to have suffered, and
for which he has required satisfaction, were done without
the knowledge and consent either of the Princes or States of

not reasonable to call them to account for the faults of

the French[3 FR] Army were landed, and were preparing to
make a sally upon the Enemy, but that the same Fregat
touching at \Milo\[3 MILO] found there this farther news,
that the French[2 FR] had indeed sallied, but with ill
success, insomuch as the Duke \de Beaufort\[2 DUKE DE

having onely had the success to regain from the Enemy the
Gorge of the Bastion \St. Andre\[3 BASTION ST. ANDRE]:
passing thence to \Zante\[3 ZANTE], he found that the Sieur

news to his great affliction for the loss of the Admiral.

that an attempt should be made upon the Enemy in two places,
and accordingly the Duke \de Navailles\[2 DUKE DE

Enemy at the \St. Andre\[3 ST. ANDRE], and the Duke \de
Beaufort\[2 DUKE DE BEAUFORT] to sally out at the
\Sabionera\[3 SABIONERA], the forces being thus divided, the
Duke \de Navailles\[2 DUKE DE NAVAILLES] having the Grand
Visier[2 TV] before him, met with much resistance, but yet
the courage of his men prevailing, they won from the Turks[2
TR] the Gorge of that Bastion; on the other side, the Duke
\de Beaufort\[2 DUKE DE BEAUFORT] finding little work at the
\Sabionera\[3 SABIONERA] the Enemy being drawn off from that
side, resolved to partake of the Glory of that days service,
and marched towards the \St. Andre\[3 ST. ANDRE], but taking
a by-way was mistaken for the Enemy and charged by the
French[2 FR], where in a fierce mistaken Fight he was
killed, and about 600 of his men, but this story, however

          This great cloud threatening us with a violent

 *IT  4a \An Account of the late Action of the French
succors in Candia[3 CANDIA],\ \we here publish as it came to
us in a Letter from that place to this purpose\.
             The Forces designed for the relief of
\Candia\[3 CANDIA] under the Command of the Duke \de
Navailles\[2 DUKE DE NAVAILLES], which put to sea from
\Thoulon\[3 THOULON] the 5th of \June\[7], upon a Fleet of
His most Christian Majesties[2 KF], Commanded by the Duke
\de Beaufort\[2 DUKE DE BEAUFORT], after a prosperous voyage
arrived in Candia Road[3 CANDIA ROAD] the 19th of the same
Moneth[7], where salutes having passed on both sides, the
Captain-General di[]patched Master \Castellan\[2 MASTER
CASTELLAN], an Engineer, to give an account both to the
Admiral and General of the condition of the place, which was
reduced to great extremity, the Duke \de Navailles\[2 DUKE
DE NAVAILLES] being unwilling to loose any time in a service
of this Importance went the same night on shoar, where he
conferred with the Captain-General, and informed himself of
the posture of the Enemy, and the whole state of the Town,
and resolved that it was necessary to land his Army, and
immediately gave such effectual Orders, that in two days
time all his forces were safely put on shoar.

#

 *IT  4b
          The Turks[2 TR] were so much advanced, that it was
judged more then an ordinary piece of service to dislodge
them, having taken up their Posts upon the Bastions of \St.
Andre\[3 BASTION S. ANDRE], and \La Sabionera\[3 LA
SABIONERA]; upon consultation it was thought fit both by
ours and the Venetian Officers[2 VE] to attacque them in one
of these two places, and to endeavour to throw down their
Works, and accordingly they resolved to try their fortunes
upon the \Sabionera\[3 SABIONERA], as fitter and more
convenient for their sally, and since we had intelligence
that the Enemy had 7 or 8000 men in that place, the French
General[2 FR] desired, that what forces could be spared out
of the Garrison might be employed for his assistance, which
was readily agreed to; he farther desired that 5 or 600
Pioneers might be employed to throw down the Enemies Works,
and that at the same time a sally might also be made at the
\St. Andre\[3 ST. ANDRE] to divert the Enemy from sending
relief to the other side.

#

 *IT  4c
          The Duke \de Beaufort\[2 DUKE DE BEAUFORT] being
unwilling to be an idle spectator of that days Action,
offered 1500 men out of the Fleet to that service, and to
play upon the Enemy with his ships, which should come up
within Musquet shot, and though he was much pressed to the
contrary, put himself into the head of the French Forces[3
FR], and was willing to receive Orders from the General.

#


*IT  4d
          That day the General having intelligence that all
the Turkish[2 TR] Horse which were in the Kingdom, were
advancing towards the place, resolved to put his design into
speedy execution, and taking that night a view of the Reer
of the Enemies Camp, upon which he intended to fall, after a
Council held, entred upon Action.

#

 *IT  4e
          First marched out 400 Commanded men, with 50 men
with Granadoes at the head of them, and after them 3 Troops
of Horse, Commanded by Monsieur \Danpier\[2 MONSIEUR
DANPIER], then followed the Regiments of \Gaures\[3 GAURES],
\St. Valier\[3 ST. VALIER], \Lorrain\[3 LORRAIN] and
\Bretagne\[3 BRETAGNE], with 4 Troops of Horse upon the
wings, led by Messieurs \Fontagne\[2 MR. FONTAGNE],
\Jousac\[2 MR. JOUSAC], and \Grance\[2 MR. GRANCE]; the
Regiment of \Harcourt\[3 HARCOURT], \Conti\[3 CONTI],
\Lignieres\[3 LIGNIERES], \Rosan\[3 ROSAN], \Monpezata\[3
MONPEZATA], \Vendosme\[3 VENDOSME], made up the Reserve,
Commanded by Monsieur \de Choseville\[2 MONSIEUR DE
CHOSEVILLE], and 4 Troops of Horse upon the wings, besides a
party of 50 of the Kings[2 KF] Musqueteers, and 100 Reformed
Officers were placed between the first and the second Line
to be ready upon all occasions; the forces which came from
the ships were ordered at the same time to fall upon the
left side of the Trench of the \Sabionera\[3 SABIONERA], and
Monsieur \Colbert\[2 MONSIEUR COLBERT] a Mareshal of the
Camp ordered to assist them.

#

 *IT  4f
          In this Order and with wonderful silence they
marched out, and undiscovered, drew up in Battaille near the
Enemy in a little Plain which led into their Camp; it now
beginning to be day, the Commanded men which were within
Musquets shot, were fired at by the Enemy, whereupon the
General Commanded Monsieur \de Dampire\[2 MONSIEUR DE
DAMPIRE] with the assistance of some of the Guards to fall
upon two Redoubts in the head of the Quarter, which was done
with such courage and success, that they presently took them
and put to the sword all that made any resistance; The
Enemies Lines were then entred and possest by the Regiments
\St. Valier\[3 ST. VALIER] and \Lorrain\[3 LORRAIN], and the
Commanded men with the Companies of Guards pursuing their
Victory, beat the Enemy out of their Trenches, and out of
all their Works, so that hitherto we had all the success
imaginable; although we had not above 300 of the 1500
expected from the ships, nor any of the Venetian[3 VE]
forces sent to our assistance, or the Pioneers promised to
throw down the Enemies Works, for which they had a fair
opportunity.

#

 *IT  4g
          The Enemy having quitted the Camp, drew up upon a
rising on their right hand, and made as if they intended to
charge us, which the General seeing, marched himself at the
head of his forces and twice beat them from their station,
but they rallying again, he charged them the third time so
home, that he gained from them the place where they drew up.


#

 *IT  4h
          After this happened an accident which ruined the
whole success of this days service, for some Powder,
Mortar-pieces and Granados happening to take fire upon a
Battery that was posted by the Guards, forced them to quit
the place in some confusion, but then fancying that the
Enemies Mines were taking fire under them, they with much
terror fled away disorderly, notwithstanding all the Arts of
Monsieur \Castellan\[2 MONSIEUR CASTELLAN], who endeavoured
to rally them; into the same disorder fell the 300 men which
came from the ships, and were not to be stopt by Monsieur
\d'Almeras\[2 MONSIEUR D'ALMERAS], who employed all his
power to oblige them to make a stand.

#

 *IT  4i
          This disorder gave courage to the Turks[2 TR], who
began a fresh to Charge us, the Admiral and Monsieur
\Colbert\[2 MONSIEUR COLBERT] having joyned with the first
Battallion, with the 50 Musquetiers, made a stout
resistance, beyond what could be expected from so small a
body, but by the terror which was imprinted generally upon
the forces were obliged to a Retreat, which might have
turned to a farre greater loss, had not the General made
good a Courtin which much favour'd the Retreat.

#

 *IT  4j
          Our body of Reserves was invested by several
forces which after a slight skirmish only which passed at
the Bastion \St. Andre\[3 BASTION ST. ANDRE], were sent to
the assistance of their Companions in the \Sabionera\[3
SABIONERA], who likewise followed the ill example given
them, and retired with disorder.

#

 *IT  4k
          The General shewed much courage as well as Conduct
in this days disaster, and with 3 or 4 Gentlemen only made
good his Retreat, passing through a body of the Enemy; but
if all parties had acquitted themselves according to what
was at first designed, might in probability have that day
put an end to the Siege.

#

 *IT  4l

Great Guns with some visible loss; the wednesday following
they appeared neer \St. Annes Lane\[3 ST. ANNES LANE], but
with no better success then before. On Friday the 2d
instant[7] about 7 in the morning they laid a great Ambush
within the Palisados of the western Cave, with intention as
we supposed to have intercepted our Guards upon the
Relieving, which being done by the Governours Order but once
in a fortnight, defeated them of their design, but the Enemy
being discovered by the Barking of Dogs which are purposely
kept there by our people and soldiers, with much readiness
appeared with their Arms and Granados to oppose them; which
they taking notice of immediately withdrew, but not without
many shot and some men killed, whom they were seen to drag
away between the Palisados and the sea; the same morning
between 9 and 10, they appeared on the other side of the
Town between \James\[3 JAMES FORT] and \Monmouth\ Forts[3
MONMOUTH FORT], seeming to have some intention to assault
\James Fort\[3 JAMES FORT], whereupon the Lieutenant
Governour ordered about 150 Foot under the Command of [

two Forts, where they entertain'd the Enemy with their shot
for the space of an hour, and forced them to retire, as is

quality. as is guessed by the Peals of shot which were heard
from them that Evening, supposedly at their Funeral.

the French[3 FR] succors, which though it was attended in
the beginning with as much success as could be imagined, and
as much slaughter to the Enemy, yet by the accidental firing
of some Powder and Granados, so great a Terror was fixed on
the French soldiers[2 FR], that falling into a general
disorder and confusion, the Turks[2 TR] had the opportunity
of rallying and pursueing them with some considerable
execution; but the same Letters tell us, that the next day
about 200 of the French[2 FR] sallying out of the Bastion
\St. Andre\[3 BASTION ST. ANDRE], and giving a great Allarum
to the Turks[2 TR], brought them in great numbers to make

they gave fire to three Mines, with extraordinary success,
blowing up great numbers of the Turks[2 TR], and some
Officers of the greatest Quality, and destroyed a
considerable Battery. They farther tell us, that upon the

that in case he had no hopes to free the Town from the

accordingly embarquing the remainder of his men which were
scarcely a third part of what he had carried out with him,
the rest of them being either killed on fight or since dead
of their hurts and the diseases of the place, and that he
thought fit to return home with the rest, since he was
unable to go through the work of succouring the place: That
the Turks[2 TR] daily gained upon the Town, and had made
themselves Master of the first Retrenchement, and were
passing on to the 2d, but that about 2500 men were

\Chambourg\[3 CHAMBOURG] without any Communication of any
thing of considerable importance of the affairs of that

readiness for his return from \Candia\[3 CANDIA], either
upon the arrival of fresh Orders from his most Christian
Majesty[2 KF], or several ships with Provision and
Ammunition for the necessary supply of his men, was returned
again with his forces into the Town, and that a fresh sally
had been since made upon the Enemy with some considerable
success, insomuch as the besieged beat back the Turks[2 TR]
with much slaughter, and regained from them some ground
without the first Retrenchment, to no small incouragement of
the besieged, though with considerable loss to the French[2

surprised at the news of the intended return of the Duke \de
Navailles\[2 DUKE DE NAVAILLES], to which he the Duke was
inclined for several reasons which he had reserved only for
the Kings Ear[2 KF]. The King[2 KF] seems much dissatisfied
with several sea Officers employed in that expedition, but
defers the effects of his anger towards them till their
return; in the mean time to shew his zeal for the carrying
on of the work in the defence of the besieged City, he has
ordered 20 men to be drawn out of each Comany of his
Regiment of Guards which are to be Commanded by several of
the Captains chosen for the employment, which are said to be
the Sieurs \de Bitaut\[2 SIEUR DE BITAUT], \de Langhure\[2

ordered to march to their Rendezvous at \Thoulon\[3

so great, that they thought fit to give over the design and
convert their whole or most part of their strength on the

they have made themselves Masters of the first Retrenchment,
and were now attacquing the second, they find it a work of

whereof, the General had Order'd the Church of St.

          That the Enemy had apply'd themselves with much
eagerness to take in the 2d Retrenchment on that side, but
the Defendants had given Fire to a Mine which they had made
under that Bulwark, and divided it into several branches,
which had wrought such effects, that besides the many
\Turks\[2 TR] killed, it ruin'd a considerable part of their
Works, and, with the Ruines it made so divided 400 \Turks\[2

Prisoners, and brought into the Town: And , that this
success had encouraged the Besieged to make a sally upon the
Firing of another Mine under the Enemy about the same place,
in which they made an incredible slaughter of the \Turks\[2

progress towards the sea side, and  by degrees to attempt
upon the \Arsenal\; but, the Defendants fearing the issue of
the Design, made a stout sally upon the Enemy in favour of
several Mines they first sprang, to the destruction of many
of the \Turks\[2 TR], forcing them to quit their Designs,

 *IT ??? On Saturday last arrived here an Extraordinary
Courier from our Ambassador in \Rome\[3 ROME], giving us
notice that the Auxiliary forces which were sent from
\France\[3 FR] and other parts were imbarked, and after
three days lying at an Anchor for a fair wind were put to
sea, in number 88 sail of all sorts in order to their return
home, leaving the Garrison in a great apprehension lest the
Turks[2 TR] taking courage from this desertion might make
some extraordinary attempts for the forcing of the place;
this advice gave no small trouble to the Senate and this
whole City, who expected with much dread to hear by the
next, either of the surrender of the place upon
Capitulation, or the taking it by storm with all the Rage
and Fury of an incensed Enemy; this apprehension had so
strongly wrought upon the publick, that as in a time of
greatest fear and calamity, they forbad their publick Feasts
and Entertainments which were designed for the new elected
Captain-General and Procurator, but whilst we were in
greatest expectation of this ill news, we received advices
from two ships from \Ceffalonia\[3 CEFFALONIA] and \Zante\[3
ZANTE], one arriving there in 12 the other in 15 days from
\Candia\[3 CANDIA], that since the departure of the French[3
FR] succors, the remaining Garrison defended it self with
extraordinary courage, but these reports not satisfying, we
have since received a fuller assurance by Letters from the
place brought by a vessel which left \Standia\[3 STANDIA]
the 28th of \August\[7], which gives us this account.

#

 *IT  3b
          That the Turks[2 TR] being filled with courage and
grown confident of success upon the departure of the
Auxiliary Fleet, resolved to loose no time, but immediately
in two great bodies fell upon the Town at the \Sabionera\[3
SABIONERA] and \St. Andre\[3 ST. ANDRE], promising
themselves an easie victory over those whom they hoped to
have found without Spirit and Courage, and so much
disanimated and weak, as not to be able to make any
considerable opposition, but they soon learnt the contrary
to their own great confusion and loss, finding so stout a
defence made in all places (the Garrison supplying with
Courage and Resolution what they wanted in Numbers) that
after three fierce Assaults they were forced to retreat with
the loss of about 3000 men, the Defendants having that day
lost about 200, and several wounded, that which much
encreased the Enemies loss at the side \St. Andre\[3 ST.
ANDRE], was the firing of a Mine of 30 Barrels of Powder by
the Defendants under the Bulwark whereon the Enemy had
raised a considerable Battery which much annoy'd the 2d
Retrenchment, which was by the said Mine wholly ruined, with
the death of great numbers of the Turks[2 TR] blown up or
buried in the rubbish of the Battery.

#

 *IT  3c
          The next day the Garrison received fresh Courage
by the happy and seasonable arrival of the Duke \de
Mirandola\[2 DUKE DE MIRANDOLA] with 14 hundred of his own
men and 600 others lately raised at \Zante\[3 ZANTE] for
this service, with large quantities of Provision and
Ammunition, and a considerable sum of Moneys for the payment
of the soldiers; with this addition, the Garrison is said to
consist of 10000 able men, with which strength, together
with what the Senate are daily sending after them, the
Captain General doubts not but that he shall be able to
defend himself till the next Spring, and to this end has
made some considerable progress in raising a new and 3d
Reternchment with other defences, a particular account
whereof, with the state of the place, we daily expect from
the Generals own Letters which are on their way hither.

other ships for another Convoy, upon whom are to embark
several Companies which were left behind by the Procurator,

their Patrouilles to prevent any violencies; which with the
care taken by the Magistrates in banishing all idle and

#

 *IT  5b
          A Courier from \Venice\[3 VENICE] brings letters
to the Venetian Ambassador[2 VE], imparting that the Duke
\de Navailles\[2 DUKE DE NAVAILLES] having Embarked his
forces in order to their return home, was put off to
\Standia\[3 STANDIA], where for some days he expected the
opportunity of a fair Wind, which offered itself the 27 of
\August\[7], on which day he set saile, but that before his
departure General \Morosini\[2 GENERAL MOROSINI] being
sensible of the advantages which might be probably given to
the Enemy by their departure, had made some Overture to the
Grand Visier[2 TV] of a Treaty for an honorable surrender,
but finding that nothing would satisfy him but a submission
to his discretion, was resolved to defend the place to the
uttermost, and had prevailed with the Duke \de Navailles\[2
DUKE DE NAVAILLES] and the Popes[2 P1] Nephew General
\Rospigliosi\[2 GENERAL ROSPIGLIOSI] to lend him 400 men
till the arrival of the fresh succors daily expected, under
the command of the Duke \de Mirandola\[2 DUKE DE MIRANDOLA].
That the Turks[2 TR] immediately upon the departure of the
Ships made three Assaults upon the place, in which they were
beaten  off with much slaughter, and the loss of 200 men
only of the Defendants. Some reports are since spread abroad
that the place after their success in the assaults, made
honorable conditions for a surrender, but as to that point
we as yet suspend our belief.

addresses, giving and receiving the usual Presents, and that
after a long conversation, in which the Caymakan professed
the Grand Segniors[2 TGS] desire of renewing the Alliance
between both Empires, he was dismist with much satisfaction,
but observed that in all their discourse, which continued

considerable quantity of land was overflown, and that the
City of \Amsterdam\[3 AMS HO] on Sunday last it so much
threatned the most principal Digue, that the Magistrates

fortifying thereof; which (had it failed) would have brought
most parts of that Country under water.

meeting with our Commissioners, the Chancellour communicated
to him the Moderation that was ordered to be used on our
part, but then told him it was expected that those of
\Liege\[3 LIEGE] should take off their Tariff, with which
the Provost replyed, that this was not agreeable to the
promise made to him, and that it was time for him to return
home, since he had spent so much time to so little purpose,
since they required a thing which he could not have the
confidence to propose to those that employd him; but this
notwithstanding, tis not believed this affair will end thus,
but that some expedient will be found out to dismiss him

 *IT ??? On Sunday morning last, being \St. Michaels\ day,
His Majesty[2 KPL] went to the Cathedral in the Castle to
His Coronation, through an extraordinary Throng of People:
The Arch-Bishop of \Gnesne\[2 ARCH-BISHOP OF GNESNE], who,
as Primate of the Kingdom, was Principally concerned in the
performance of that Ceremony, was seated by the High-Altar
in his Pontifical Habit, and by him the Bishop of
\Gujavie\[2 BISHOP OF GUJAVIE], \Cracovie\[2 BP CRACOVIE],
\Plesco\[2 BP PLESCO], \Premistie\[2 BP PREMISTIE],
\culme\[2 BP CULME], \Kiovie\[2 BP KIOVIE], \Luccovie\[2 BP
LUCCOVIE], \Cumeniez\[2 BP CUMENIEZ], and \Posnanie\[2 BP
POSNANIE]. Upon the Altar were 3 Cushions of Cloth of Gold,
on which were placed the Crown, Scepter and the Diadem, and
by them lay the Sword. The Bishops were placed in a Semi
circle before the Altar; on the \Epistle\-side within the
Quire, against the Wall, was a Cloath of State, with an
Oratory for the King[2 KPL], and in the midst of the Quire
before the Altar was Erected a Throne, and over it a Canopy
of State for that Ceremony. About 10 of the Clock His
Majesty[2 KPL] came into the Church, preceeded by Officers
of His House, and many Senators and Principal Noble-Men, and
was at the Door received by the Bishop of \Kiovie\[2 BP
KIOVIE], who gave him the \Holy-Water\, and the Bishop of
\Cracovie\[2 BP CRACOVIE], in their Pontifical Habits,
attended by all the Canons of the Church. The King[2 KPL]
being entred took His Seate on the side of the Quire, and
immediately Masse began with the Ceremonies of the
Coronation, according to the Printed Ceremonial. As soon as
His Majesty[2 KPL] had put on His Royal Habit, He was by the
Bishops of \Cujavie\[2 BP CUJAVIE] and \Cracovie\[2 BP
CRACOVIE] attended to the Throne in the midst of the Quire,
where the Crown was put upon His Head, with a general
Acclamation of all the Assembly, and immediately a
Distribution was made of several Coppies of Printed-Pieces
composed in Praise of the King[2 KPL], and at the same time
the Grand-Treasurer flung a great Number of Medalls amongst
the People. This Ceremony ending, the Feast attended His
Majesty[2 KPL] in the Hall, where a Throne was Erected, with
a Table Raised 5 Steps above all the rest for His Majesty[2
KPL], at whose Right Hand were placed the Popes[2 P1]
Nuncio, and the Emperors[2 EA] Ambassador, and on His Left
the Dutchess the Kings Mother[2 KPL M], and the said
Ambassadors Lady; below this Throne was a Table, where were
Entertained about 40 Ladies of the Greatest Quality; and on
the other side of the Hall was another long Table, at which
were plac't about 50 Persons Bishops, Senators, and other
Lords, but the Arch-Bishop of \Gnesne\[2 APB GNESNE] thought
fit to absent himself, to prevent all Dispute with Publick
Ministers about Precedency.


#

 *IT  3b
          The next day His Majesty[2 KPL] rode in State to
the Great Place of the City, where was erected a Scaffold
cover'd with Scarlet, and on it a Throne with a Cloth of
State of red Velvet for His Majesty[2 KPL]: the Order of the
Cavalcade was as followeth. First Marched a Company of
Lances of about 90 Persons, 30 of them Persons of Quality,
each of them excellently mounted and habited, and attended
by 2 Gentlemen, these were all alike Armed, with Back,
Breast and Pot, and a great \Tigers\ Skin upon the left
shoulder, only the Attendants distinguisht by 2 great Wings
of Black Feathers fastned to their Backs. After these
followed 200 of the Nobless well Mounted, and richly Clad.
Then 2 Trumpetters in the Kings[2 KPL] Livery, followed by
the Senators and other great Lords, to the number of about
60 Persons, and amongst them the 3 Brothers of Prince
\Lubomirsky\[2 LUBOMIRSKY BROTHERS], who in gallantry much
surpassed all the rest, except only the Standard-Bearer who
was covered with Jewels. Before the Standard Rode the Bishop
of \Posnanie\[2 BP POSNANIE], and the Vice-Chancellor of
\Poland\[2 VICE-CHANCELLOR OF POLAND], preceded by 4 Lords,
each of them bearing a Cushion of Cloth of Gold in the left
hand, whereon were borne the Crown, the Scepter, the Diadem,
and the Sword; After the Standard came the Emperours[2 EA]
Ambassadour, attended by 6 Pages and 20 Footmen in Rich
Liveries, and next the Grand-\Treasurer\, all the way
casting Medalls amongst the People. Then came His Majesty[2
KPL] richly Clad, and Adorned with the Crown-Jewels, before
whose Horse marched 12 Pages in their Rich Liveries, and
about Him 12 Halbardiers, with Cassocks in the Kings Colour,
and rich Halberds; after them His Majsties Guards of Launces
well mounted and Equipped, and then 12 of the Kings[2 KPL]
Footmen in Livery, and a Rich Coach of His Majesties. In
this Order His Majesty[2 KPL] Rode to the Grand-Place,
where, having Ascended the Throne, He put on the Royal
Robes, and took His Seat, before whom the Consuls and
Citizens of \Cracovie\[3 CRACOVIE], after a Solemn Speech
made upon that Occasion, took the Oath of Allegeance and
Fidelity, which done, His Majesty[2 KPL] made 12 Knights, 4
of them Citizens of \Cracovie\[3 CRACOVIE], 2 of
\Dantzick\[3 DAN PL], 2 of \Thorne\[3 THORNE], 2 of

went into a House nera the Place, where, with the Dutchess
His Mother[2 KPL M] he was divertised with Excellent
Fireworks. That Day the City of \Cracovia\[3 CRACOVIA] made
His Majesty[2 KPL] a Present of 1000 Ducats in Gold, and the
\Jewes\ of the Town the like, which Example will be followed
by \Dantzick\[3 DAN PL], and all the other Cities of this

Town of \Candia\[3 CANDIA], upon more Honourable Terms then
could easily have been expected from an Enemy whose losses
have been so great before the place, and his hopes raised do

 *IT  4b
          There is lately arisen a dispute between the
Pope[2 P1] and the Governour of \Milan\[2 GOVERNOUR OF

since been informed of several Convents of disorderly Monks
in the Dutchy of \Milan\[3 MILAN], was pleased to give order
for their suppression, allowing some small Annual Pension
for the maintenance of the present Religious persons of the
said Convents during their lives, designing to imploy the
Revenues of these dissolved Convents for the assistance of
the Republicks of \Venice\[3 VENICE] Wars against the
Turks[2 TR]; this the Governour of \Milan\[2 GOVERNOUR OF
MILAN] opposed, affirming the disposal thereof, did of Right
belong to His Catholick Majesty[2 KS] his Master, the Pope[2
P1] much dissatisfied with this unexpected opposition,
Orders the Cardinal \de Litta\[2 CARDINAL DE LITTA] the
Archbishop to pronounce the Church Censures against his
opposers, and sent several Officers to collect and dispose
of the said Revenues; those Officers were seized on by the
Governours[2 GOVERNOUR OF MILAN] Order, who also gave the
Cardinal to understand, that if he persisted in this
Practice, he should be forced to send him into \Spain\[3

highly exasperated by this procedure, has sent his
Complaints to his Nuncio at \Madrid\[3 MADRID], of which we

wrote a severe Letter to the Viceroy[2 VICEROY OF NAPLES],
and encouraged the Bishops to persevere in their opposition;

himself much upon the danger threatned from the Turks[2 TR],
and exhorting the Assembly to take some speedy and timely
care to prevent the mischiefs which otherwise may spring
from this too near neighbourhood and conjunction with the
Cossacks[2 CO]; which done, the Archbishop of \Gnesne\[2 ABP
GNESNE] made an elegant speech upon the same subject,
representing and laying open the necessities of the publick
and the present ill state of affairs, showing how much they
were concerned to make a timely application to the neighbour
Christian Princes, to joyn their assistances for their
common interest against the Common Enemy, exhorting all
persons of the Kingdom to contribute what they are able for
the payment and encouragement of their Army, to whom he
intended by his voluntary Contribution to give a good
example; but adding, that if he found the Generality
inclined to consult rather their private passions and
interests then that of the publick, he knew as well as any
how to retire himself out of the Kingdom[3 POLAND] that he
might not be an Eye-witness of the succeeding evils, but
this discourse, how pathetick soever, had not the effects
which his zeal expected from the Assembly, for the next day
the Nobless refused to discusse any publick affair till they
had first satisfaction given them in three particulars.
  1.  That the deputies from the several Provinces might
      be better and more conveniently lodged, without
expence
      as in former Diets, and that they be reimbursed in the
Moneys
      layd out by them on that account.
  2.  That about 18 of the Deputies who have judgements
      of Infamy against them may be refused the liberty of
their
      Votes till they have first purged themselves.
  3.  That since a former Law was made for the Sequestration
      of all vacant Governments for the recompensing
      of such of the Nobless as had lost their Estates by
the
      late troubles in \Ukrania\[3 UKRANIA], they desired
that an Inspection
      might be made into that affair, and the revenues
arising
      from the said vacancies disposed of according to the
true
      intention of the said Law, all of which points tis
feared may occasion many heats to the dissolution of the

Cossacks[2 CO], and that the Turks[2 TR] have besides the
Town of \Raschow\[3 RASCHOW], fortified also \Scarrogrot\[3

As yet the Brazille[3 BRAZILLE] Fleet is not put to sea, nor
is it yet resolved whether any ships will part with them for
the \East-Indies\[3 EAI], the Merchants having excused
themselves from furnishing Moneys for the setting out of
ships of strength for that voyage, are the more severely
looked into in the matter of Customes, and a search made
into their Houses for such Goods as have paid none.

#

 *IT 6b

Pope[2 P1] designes hither a squadron of his Gallies, to
conduct to \Rome\[3 ROME] Segnior \Steffano Pallavicinos\[2
SEGNIOR STEFFANO PALLAVICINO] Daughter, the Match being now
fully concluded between her and the Popes[2 P1] Nephew, who
is to have with her the sum of about 200 thousand Pistols,
with which he intends to purchase the Principality of

from him, presently Arm'd out 2 Chaloups in her Pursuite;
who overtaking her in the Road of \Legorne\[3 ROAD OF
LEGORNE], seized her, notwithstanding several shots made at
them from the Fort, which killed some of their Seamen, and
hurt divers others. He intended to have brought hither his
Prize, but, finding some opposition amongst our Superiors,
thought fit to send her away to \Villa Francha\[3 VILLA
FRANCHA].

#

 *IT  7f
          Upon Information brought to our Superiors by an
Express, that the Duke of \Savoye's \[2 DUKE OF SAVOY]
Officer in the Valley of \Oneglia\[3 ONEGLIA], had
Imprisoned Segnior \Carazza\[2 SEGNIOR CARAZZA] Commander of

some hopes that the Disputes arisen between the Pope[2 P1]

about the Revenues of the suppressed Convents may admit of a
Friendly Composure.

#

 *IT ??? Since the peace lately concluded between the
Venetians[2 VE] and the Turks[2 TR], our apprehensions are
encreased, lest the Ottoman force[3 OT] may seek a new
employment by giving us a disturbance in \Hungary\[3
HUNGARY], especially since they press us hard for the
dismantling the Fort neer \Gomorre\[3 GOMORRE], and make
several other demands which His Imperial Majesty[2 EA]
cannot in Honour comply with: but that we may not be found
altogether disabled from making our defence if the Turks[2
TR] should make any attempts upon us, great care is taken
for the repairing all our fortifications, especially those
on the frontiers which lie most exposed to affronts of that
nature; the Count \de Montecuculi\[2 COUNT DE MONTECUCULI]
continues at \Raab\[3 RAAB], from whence he issues out his
Orders for the supply of the Magazines, and furnishing the
several Garrisons with stores of all sorts, in such manner
as may be least sensible and burdensome to the Inhabitants
of those parts, which providence of his has much obliged the
people, and confirmed them in their obedience to his
Imperial Majesty[2 EA].

#

 *IT  8b
          The Emperour[2 EA] having notice that the Turks[2
TR] were dispatching hither an Aga[2 TR] with farther

hither and to return him with such answer as he shall be
furnished with by the instructions which shall be sent him
for that purpose, and if the Aga[2 TR] were already past him

conduct him to the City of \Raab\[3 RAAB].

          The Bishop of \Munster\[2 BISHOP OF MUNSTER] has
lately sent hither an Ecclesiastical person his Envoye, to
impart (as he pretends) several things of great and weighty
importance to His Imperial Majesty[2 EA], but (as is
believed) to endeavour to divert the Emperour[2 EA] from
entring into the League with the Princes of \Germany\[2
PRINCES OF GERMANY], for securing the peace between the two
Crowns of \France\[3 FR] and \Spain\[3 SPAIN].

 *IT  9c
          And from \Ratisbonne\[3 RATISBONNE], that the
agreement made for the Regulation of Moneys is fully ended
and concluded with the approbation of His Imperial Majesty[2

other affair of greater concernment for the security of the
Empire, in which they have agreed upon the number of forces
to be raised both of Horse and Foot, and are now upon the
choice of fit Officers to Command them, to whom they intend
speedily to issue out Commissions that they may proceed to

Hurrican upon those Coasts.

shoar, the \Portland\[4 PORTLAND] and \Nonsuch\[4 NONSUCH]
being to the windward, kept at a distance the better to
secure the Turk[4 TR], should he have endeavour'd to come by

delivered into His Majesties[2 KF] own hand, shall be
admitted to His Majsties[2 KF] presence, it having hitherto
been thought fit exactly to follow the rule which has been
observed in \Turky\[3 TURKY], where the Grand Segnior[2 TGS]
admits none to Audience under the character of Ambassador,
referring all others to his Visier. This first Audience
given by Monsieur \de Lyonne\[2 MONSIEUR DE LYONNE] was in
Ceremonies the same with that which was formerly given by
the Visier to the Sieur \de Beaulieu\[2 SIEUR DE BEAULIEU]
the French Envoy[2 FR], who having been obliged to attend
some time for his Audience,upon pretence of a call to
Prayer, to which the Turks[2 TR] are by their Religion
engaged to submit all affairs of what importance soever:
Monsieur \de Berny\[2 MONSIEUR DE BERNY] son to Monsieur \de

an Envoy sent by the Prince to demand Money, gives us
occasion to believe his Negotiation may be of greater
importance; himself may in few days begin his Journey,

  1. To consider of some effectual method of appeasing the
Cossacks[2 CO]
     fairly to reduce them to their obedience to the Crown
of \Poland\[3 POLAND],
     that so that very considerable Province of \Ukrania\[3
UKRANIA] might be
     recovered out of the hands of the Turks[2 TR] to whose
protection it hath
     submitted it self.
  2. That the Treaty with Muscovy[3 MUSCOVY] might be
encouraged, and a League
     made offensive and defensive.
  3. That instructions be given to such Ambassadors as shall
be chosen to be
     sent to the Grand Segnior[2 TGS] and the Cham of
Tartary[2 CHAM OF TARTARY],
     if possible, to prevent a war with them.
  4. To Order the speedy repair of all their Fortifications
especially upom
     the frontiers.
  5. So to settle the Customes upon Merchandises, that the
Moneys thence
     arising may be collected with a s much ease as is
possible.
  6. To consider of some way of filling the publick Coffers.
  7. To take care for the payment of the Army, and expences
of their
     Ambassies to foreign Princes, but little is yet done in
satisfaction to these His Majesties[2 KPL] desires, only as
to the Treaty with \Muscovy\[3 MUSCOVY], the Commissioners
on both sides are met upon the frontiers, where those from
the Great Duke[2 GDM] have in writing delivered to the
Polish Commissioners[2 PL] the substance of their
pretensions, consisting of 12 points, which being in some

themselves, which is now endeavoured by \Nasokin\[2 NASOKIN]

complaints made by the Spaniards[2 SP] in the Netherlands[3

declaring his intention of compliance with the desires of
His Majesty of \Great Britain\[2 KE], had upon his account
given order for the revocation of the Placards enjoyning the
Residency of the Spanish Subjects[2 SP] upon their Estates
which lay within the French[3 FR] jurisdiction, and for the
taking off the Confiscation of the Estates of the Prince \de
Ligne\[2 PRINCE DE LIGNE] and others, restoring them to the
full possession and enjoyment of their Lands and Goods as
formerly, but hopes that this compliance of his, may invite
the Constable of \Castille\[2 CC] to regulate or take away
the Offices which have been establisht upon the frontiers to
the great detriment and hindrance of Trade, excusing the
passing of his forces with their Convoy through some parts
of the Spanish Territories[3 SP] as a thing which could not
be avoided by reason of the scituation of their Territories
which lay intermixed, but that for the future he should be
willing his Carriages should pass without Convoys, if the
Spaniards[2 SP] would give assurance for their safe passage;
and that as to the dues upon Coals, he had ordered the
Customs to be duly paid: upon this Concession he doubted not
but \Spain\[3 SPAIN] would also think fit to give him a like
satisfaction in the point of the Dependencies of his late
Conquests, which has so long been the Subject of the

concerned as seconds, the two Princes, brethren to
\Lubomirski\[2 PRINCES LUBOMIRSKI], and several other

such exaction, of which the Bassa of \Neuhausel\[2 BASSA OF

Employment,that so he might throw off all other Cares, and
live quietly upon his private Estate, since he finds himself

Equipage and Discipline, in so much, as no Complaints are

date, give us a more particular Account then what we
formerly had, both of the Treaty and Surrender of the City
of \Candia\[3 CANDIA]; assuring us, that the Generalissimo
finding the place reduced to a heap of Rubbish, and by the
\Turks\[2 TR] so farr entred, and the Garrison so
considerably lessened, there remaining only 3600 Men fit for
Service, that it was judged impossible to preserve it from
the Enemy: A Counsel having been called, it was resolved
that endeavours should be used to come to a Treaty with the
Visier[2 TV] for a Surrender, and accordingly Collonel
\Arnardi\[2 COLLONEL ARNARDI] and Segnior \Scordeli\[2
SEGNIOR SCORDELI] the Vice-Chancellor were made choice of to
manage the Treaty; and on the First of \September\[7] sent
out to the Post, on the side of \Giosiro\[3 GIOSIRO], with a
White Flagg, whose business being communicated to the Grand
Visier[2 TV], the Newes was immediately carried through the
Turkish Army[3 TR], and entertained with extraordinary joy,
and Commissioners were immediately appointed to Treat with
them on the Turks[2 TR] side, between whom all that day was
spent, but nothing farther Concluded, then that the next
Conference should be held in an open Field, before the Fort
\Demetrius\[3 FORT DEMETRIUS], where the Turks[2 TR] set up
a large Tent for that purpose. The Treaty was there
continued till the Fifth of \September\[7], and then
concluded upon the Articles formerly Publisht; For
performance whereof Hostages were given on both sides,
particularly, Segnior \Calbo\[2 SEGNIOR CALBO] Commissaty
for Provisions, \De Riva\[2 SEGNIOR DE RIVA] Lieutenant to
the Generalls Guards, and \Zacaria Mocenigo\[2 ZACARIA

were received with extraordinary civility, having a rich
apartment prepared for them, a guard of Janisaries appointed
to attend them whither they pleased, and a Table of 30
dishes a meal allowed them, where they received visits from
the Visier[2 TV] and all the principal Officers of his Army.
This done, the great Officers on both sides gave and
returned visits with much ceremony and kindness; ours
viewing the Turks[2 TR] Lines and much wondring at their
Order and Strength; and theirs as much admiring the ill
condition of the Town, and the great courage of the
defendants which alone preserved them: the following days
were spent in removing of the Stores, Guns and Goods of the
besieged to the Fleet which attended for their
transportation, and on Friday the 20th of \September\[7],
the Garrison marched out without the least disturbance, the
Visier[2 TV] being resolved to win as much fame for his
justice in performing Articles as for his industry and
courage in the war; and the next Friday the 27th of the same
moneth[7], the City[3 CANDIA] being cleansed and prepared
for him, he marched in with his Army; the four principal
Churches he has since converted into Mosques to serve for
the worship of \Mahomet\[1 MAHOMET], the other Churches
turned into Stables for his own horses and those of his
Army; the civility of the Visier has been eminently shown to
all the Venetian Officers[2 VE] of any note, but more
remarkably to the Generalissimo \Morosini\[2 GENERALISSIMO
MOROSINI], to whom he made considerable Presents, with this
Compliment; that however affairs might be ordered, the peace
should have as long a continuance as his Command: the
Visier[2 TV] has been since pressed to transfer the war
either into \Affrick\[3 AFFRICK] against the Emperour of
\Morocco\[2 EMPEROUR OF MOROCCO] who refuses the payment of
the Tribute, which was never refused by his predecessors, or
into \Arabia\[3 ARABIA] upon the like account; but the
Visier[2 TV] seems rather resolved to make war upon
\Maltha\[3 MALTHA] or \Italy\[3 ITALY], for which he
supposes he shall be able to set out a powerful Fleet, and
for this purpose intends to continue with his Army all this
winter in \Candia\[3 CANDIA].

Treaty, got together in a great body and made an incursion
into that Province, but finding the Countrey in a posture of
defence, with our Militia's in good readiness to oppose
them, were forced after some small rencounter and losses to
return without any considerable booty, and that the
Morlaichs[2 MORLAICHS] had made a return of their visit, by
a more effectual inroad into the Ottoman Territories[3 OT],
from whence they brought away many Slaves and a booty of an
hundred head of Cattle, but the Proveditor General of the
Province being informed of the disorders, had ordered
immediate restitution to be made of all that the said
Morlachs[2 MORLACHS] had taken, and giving a strict Charge
for the future prevention of farther excursions, having also
sent to make complaints to the Turkish Bassa[2 TR] of the

serach an emploiment to our disturbance; for which end
General \Montecuculi\[2 GENERAL MONTECUCULI] is speedily to
return into \Hungary\[3 HUNGARY] to give such Orders as are
necessary for the furnishing our Magazines,the strengthning
of our Garrisons, and the compleating and reparation of our

\Moravia\[3 MORAVIA] was in danger to be over-run by the

aside all other Interests, and make choice of such a person
to suceed in his room, as might be most worthy of the
Dignity, and repair the faults committed by him during his

Councel held here by His Majesty[2 KPL], wherein was debated
the Marriage with the Emperors Sister[2 PRINCESS ELEANOR];
the Grand Marshal[2 GRAND MARSHAL OF POLAND], and the
General with the High Treasurer seemed not to favour this
alliance, with the Emperor[2 EA], fearing he might not give
us the assistance we expected, if a warr should happen with
the Turk[2 TR], but others of the contrary opinion, closed
with His Majesties[2 KPL] intentions, which were earnestly
though more privily persued by the Vicechancellor, who was
thought the fittest person to be Employed as Ambassador to
\Vienna\[3 WIE TY] to perfect that Negotiation: the King
went since to \Chestokowa\[3 CHESTOKOWA] a Religious Convent
in the midst of a Fort about 18 leagues distant from this
place[3 CRACOVIE], where he intends to expect the Answer
which will be given to his said Ambassador; since this it

of conducting the Arch-Dutchess the future Queen[2

left to the Vicechancellor.

are supposed to be underhamnd fomented, but especially, by
the Turks[2 TR], to the end, that when the Cossacks[2 CO]
have sufficiently weakned themselves by their civil
dissentions, they may with more ease make a prey of them.

his Neighbour Princes, and went afterwards from thence to

Prince Elector Palatine[2 EP], by which last he was Treated
with extraordinary kindness.

          The Treaty which has been for some time
negotiating at \Landaw\[3 LANDAW] between the Prince Elector
Palatine[2 EP] and the Duke of \Lorrain\[2 DDL] is neer
concluded, nothing remaining under dispute but the
fortifying or not fortifying of the places towards the
Palatinate[3 PALATINATE], which are to be given up in lieu
of the Country of \Falkenstein\[3 FALKENSTEIN], though it is
also said that the Bishop of \Spire\[2 BP OF SPIRE] has
protested against this Treaty as having some pretensions to
the places which are to be given to the Duke[2 DDL] upon
this agreement.

 *IT  7c
          Monsieur \de Risancourt\[2 MONSIEUR DE RISANCOURT]
a Minister of the Duke of Lorrain[2 DDL] passing lately by
\Franckfort\[3 FRANCKFORT], declared that his Master desired
nothing with greater zeal then to preserve a good
correspondency and understanding between him and the Empire
with all the Members thereof, he esteeming himself of the
number of them, since he has been taken into the Warranty at
\Ratisbonne\[3 RATISBONNE].

 *IT  7d
          From \Rattisbonne\[3 RATTISBONNE] they write that
the Emperour has sent thither his resolve touching the point
of raising forces for the security of the Empire, shewing

that account, provided they observe the ancient Matricula[1
MATRICULA], promising farther to contribute a full
proportion to the Leavies on condition that the Hereditary
Provinces[3 HEREDITARY PROVINCES] may be comprised in the
general warranty.

#

 *IT  7e
          The fourth instant[7] His Imperial Majesty[2 EA]
said Resolve was taken into consideration by the three
Colledges, but nothing that day concluded, many debates
arising upon the great probabilities of disturbances from
the Turks[2 TR] in \Hungary\[3 HUNGARY], which by this means
may involve the whole Empire in new troubles.

there from the Country, in which he had for some time
divertis'd himself, after which he expected a sudden
Audience, and had some hopes of a favourable one, if any
thing might be guessed from the civility he had received
from several of the Principal Persons of the Court, though
he could not at all boast of his Entertainment on his way,
or his first Reception upon his Entry into that City[3
MOSCO].

their ancient Obedience to that Crown[3 POLAND],
\Dorosensko\[2 GENERAL DOROSENSKO] having it seems gained a
Victory over the other Heads of the Factious People, and

contracted much wealth, and being upon several complaints
fallen into the Grand Segniors[2 TGS] displeasure, insomuch
that his head seemed in great danger; he for some time
fortify'd himself within the strongest Town of his
Government, intending at the first to have made resistance,
but finding the People not at all inclinable to follow his
fortune, but rather to oppose him, he privately embarked
himself with the greatest part of his Treasure and passed
into \Persia\[3 PERSIA], desiring the protection of the
Sophy, but being pressed to commit himself for protection to
the Persian Court[3 PE], the Bassa[2 BASSA OF BOSRA]

absence of Cardinal \Antonio\[2 CARDINAL ANTONIO] his Uncle,
went to the Popes[2 P1] Chamber followed by some others of
the Cardinals, and knocked three times at the door, which
being opened, he three times called the Pope[2 P1] by name,
after which, coming to his Bed side, he with a little
instrument like a Hammer, gently struck him three times upon
his Temples of his left side, and then took away his
Seal-Ring of the Fisher which he wore upon his right Thumb,
and afterwards his other Seal which he broke and then
entring into the Gallery, with a loud voice declared that
Pope \Clement\[2 P1] was dead: after which, the Pope[2 P1]
was the same day embalmed, and then clad in his usual habit,

          The Venetian Ambassador[2 VE] had not long since
an Audience from the Emperour[2 EA] which continued for a
considerable time, after which a Courier was dispatched
hence to the Republick of \Venice\[3 VENICE], shewing them
the esteem his Imperial Majesty[2 EA] had of the forces sent
by him for their service, who had shewn such eminent proofs
of their valour in the defence of \Candia\[3 CANDIA] during
that Siege, desiring the Republick[3 VENICE], that the
remainder of those forces those especially which were sent
under the Command of the Prince of \Portia\[2 PRINCE OF

might have care taken of them in their march, since he
intended to entertain them for the future in his own

are commanded to observe with all punctuality, upon
condition our people may be kept in such good order and
discipline as not to give occasion of disturbance; they also
endeavour to excuse their late proceedings, affirming it was
never their intention to exact Tribute from any places not
included within their own bounds of jurisdiction; and that
all their designs hitherto giving a suspicion to the
contrary, were only fancied to be such from their
endeavours, to oblige the Villages neer \Neuhausel\[3

necessary for the support of that Garrison.

His Highness the Prince Elector[2 EP] and the Duke of

the future secure a lasting peace to both Princes and their
people, which is the rather hoped, since the said Prince
Elector[2 EP] is said to have given satisfaction to the
Bishop of \Spire\[2 BP OF SPIRE] for any pretensions he may
have to any of these places which are to be given up as
equivalent to the Duke of \Lorrain\[2 DDL], which was the
greatest if not the only Obstacle which put a stop to the

to be sent into \Liuonia\[3 LIUONIA], but these orders are

see what effects they may promise themselves from the
Mediation of Monsieur \Heinsius\[2 HEER HEINSIUS] Envoye
from the States of the United Provinces[3 UNITED PROVINCES]
now at \Moscow\[3 MOSCOW], of which they now seem to
conceive great probabilities of success, several reports
being spread abroad that the \Muscovite\[2 MV] is generally

Commissioners have been for a considerable time in
conference on the frontiers upon that subject.

#

 *IT  7c
          From \Poland\[3 POLAND] we are told, that the
King[2 KPL] has by his prudence in the management of affairs
since the rupture of the Diet at \Cracovia\[3 CRACOVIA],
taken so much care for all the concernments of the Kingdom[3
POLAND], that 'tis much to be hoped the great troubles of
that Kingdom[3 POLAND] may yet have a happy issue, and their
Enemies be frustrated of all the advantages they hoped from
their distractions; he has particularly taken care to
prevent a new confederation in the Army, to which their
extraordinaru wants had but too much provoked them, and hath
had several consultations of the best way of raising Moneys
for the payment of their arrears.

#

          He has also in some measure prevented the danger
of Civil broils upon the account of Religion, by confirming
the priviledges of \Prussia\[3 PRUSSIA], and readmitting the
Protestants to a free exercise of their Religion, always
provided, that they attempt nothing against the publick
peace: several able persons are emploid into \Ukrania\[3
UKRANIA] to perswade that Province to return to their
ancient obedience, to which \Dorosensko\[2 GENERAL
DOROSENSKO], who has been considerably successful in several
combats with the other factions, seems very inclinable, and
for the avoiding a foreign war, he sometime since dispatched
an Ambassador to the Ottoman Court[3 OT], from whence
principally that danger seemed to be threatened, to offer
all reasonable terms for the security of the peace on that
side.

proposal about the allowance of his full proportions towards
the Army which was to be raised for the safety of the
Empire; always provided, that all his hereditary Countreys[3
HEREDITARY COUNTREYS] might be comprised in the warranty,
and claim the benefit of a publick protection, but this met
again with such warm debates, that they were not able that
day to come to any resolution upon that point; the greater
part of the Deputies complaining that their instructions
were not large enough to empower them to give their
judgements upon this proposal; it was therefore thought fit
to adjourn the farther consideration thereof to a farther
day, and the Deputies in the mean while are desired to
acquaint their superiors with what has been offered, and to
require such farther enlargement of instructions as might be
thought convenient for the speedy determination of an affair
of so great concernment to the whole Empire.
