The Continuation of our Weekely NEWES From Constantinople the 10. of Aprill 1632. THe Lord Paul Strasburg Embassador from the King of Sweden to the Prince of Transilvania yesterday arrived here The said Embassador did refuse to be received publikely with pomp and state after the common custome and manner of entertaining of such persons The reason was because he had left a great number of his followers in Transilvania I suppose that the end of his comming into these parts was concerning the Princesse who is sister to the King of Swedens Queene and Bethlem Gabors widow And furthermore to condescend to the request and desire of the Prince of Transilvania The boisterous humors of the military sort and especially the Spahies cannot as yet be pacified nor the differences allayd They commit many insolencies without any respect to Magistrates superiors or great ones Nay not so much as bearing respect to the great Turke himselfe much lesse to the Visiers Their insolent pride is come to that height that there is no other hope left but onely the ruine of the whole Turkish Empire or at leastwise of their persons The Astrologians haue prognosticated a terrible bloud-shedding in this Citie and all matters indeede doe seeme to dispose themselues and bend to such a woefull effect I doe palpably perceiue that our State is farre more dangerous than the same was even at the deposing killing of Sultan Osman The Emperor or great Turke and all his Ministers and Councell are without councell and at their wits end Yesterday the Zebesies those are they that governe and keepe the Munition and Ordnance did massacre publikely one of their Survasies or Captaines and which is most strange even at that time when the Turkes doe keepe their Ramedan or fasting moneth at which time they doe vsually abhorre and abstaine from all manner of wicked insolencies especially from bloud-shedding It is to be feared that after their Bairam a fearefull bloudy tragedie will follow The Lord of mercy preserue and keepe vs and all innocent ones from their cruell and bloudy intentions From Dantzich the 4. of May 1632. Those of Polonia haue so long disputed of the succession of their King that at the last they haue found a reason of resolving the succession by his death The said Kings death befell at Warsaw on the 29th day of Aprill last he dyed of an Apoplexie which indeede he was strucke withall sixe dayes before His death fell out very vnseasonably for Polonia being now envelopped fallen into warres with Muscovia which certainly will cause the States of that Kingdome to hasten the choice of a new King which election is deferred vntill the second Sunday after Whitsuntyde In the meane while the Arch-bishop of Guesnen governes the whole Kingdome for the time being Among the chiefest Competitors for this Crowne the King of Sweden is by all men supposed to be the most likely next to him the Prince Vlad●slaus eldest sonne to the late deceased King then the Prince Casimirus hi● brother by the Fathers side and the Arch-duke Leopoldus But because the last of these is not esteemed fortunate and successefull in his designes of Warre the Election is rather ascribed to the strength power of the first or favour of the second The rather because their States haue recalled him from the great charge which was laid vpon him being Generall of the Armie against the Muscovites as soone as ever they perceived his Father drawing to an end they having established and sent into his roome the Prince Razevill From Madrid the 25th of May 1632. Wee doe heare that the King of Spaine receiues but small content at Barcelone They are a very head-strong people very hardly to be perswaded The Deputies haue alreadie had some bickering with Count Olivarez who being entred into discourse with them vpon some matter belonging to the Voyage they perceiving that he spake of moneyes answered him that they would account with the King himselfe and not with him The Infant Carles hath taken possession of the charge of Generalissimo of the Seas which was provided for him sixe moneths agoe The Ceremony was that he went to Sea some ten leagues with some Gallyes and Gallions and then came backe and made his entry into Barcelonia in state and qualitie of Generalissimo Vnto this great Charge was that given also vnto him of being Vicar Generall of the King which great place doth subject vnto him all the Viceroyes and Governors of that Countrey Lately there was almost raised a great tumult at Lisbon betwixt the Souldiers of the Garrison and the Inhabitants of that Citie Which troublesome Difference Don Fredericke de Toledo could no otherwise appease but by the imprisoning of some of the Souldiers Although the hurt and wrong done was not very great But the insolencies of those people will encrease if they be not timely suppressed It is said that here the Deputies are accorded and agreed to yeeld vnto the King two millions and an halfe in case and on condition that he will be pleased to recall the new imposition vpon Salt But the King before he will condescend vnto that he will presse them to maintaine 30000. foote and 6000. horse Brussels the 12. of Iune I promised you at your last departure to giue you notice of the particular passages of these parts which I will now accordingly performe beginning from the day that the Hollanders invanded this Land Vpon Wednesday being the second of Iune the Prince of Orange came into that part of Gilderland which was subject to the King of Spaine and dividing his Armie laid siege both vnto Venlo and Ruremond and because he might the easier winne the people to yeeld vp those Townes without effusion of blood he sent vnto them conditions of peace consisting of 18. Articles which were so easie and favourable in their behalfes as their owne hearts could desire Amongst which Articles one was That they should enjoy free exercise of Religion without any diminution of such rents as appertained to the Clergie or molestation of those Religious Orders which were within those Townes The Citizens having thoroughly considered vpon these points and finding the number of their Souldiers not sufficient to withstand any violent assault thought best to accept of them Wherevpon those of Venlo delivered vp their Towne vnto
the Prince of Orange vpon Friday Iune 4. and those of Ruremond the Sunday following It is said that at the celebration of the Sacrament the Prince gaue order vpon paine of death that the Souldiers should not molest nor deride the Catholiks in the time of their publike Procession This is a thing which gaue the people no small contentment and which will not a little advance the Hollanders in their after conquests if they continue firme in this resolution Wee haue newes that Graue Ernest of Nassau was slaine before Ruremond with a Musket-shot as he was alighting off his horse The Prince of Orange having placed strong Guards in the aforesaid Townes continued on his march forwards hath since taken in a strong Castle with two other wall●d Townes and as it is reported is now come before Maestricht where Graue Iohn de Nassau is readie to entertaine them with Canon-shot having lodged the last weeke 4000. men within the Towne for the better securing of the place It is said that the Spanish Forces are hasting out of the Palatinate and that the people of Leige doe refuse their passage thorough their Countrey because of certaine wrongs they haue lately received by the Spaniards As for Graue Henrie Vanden Berg he hath retired himselfe vnto the Citie of Leige since the losse of his government for all the Dutchie of Gelderland is now conquered by the Hollanders the Towne of Gelders onely excepted Whilst these things were thus in acting the Hollanders who for more surety fished with two hookes put in execution an other enterprise of no lesse important consideration For vpon Munday last being the seventh of this moneth they came vp the River of Antwerp with a great Fleete of ships boates and pontous and disbarking their men about t●n of the clocke in the night not farre from a Fort called in Dutch Creutz-Sconce or Crosse Sconce before it was morning they had so well intrenched themselues that so soone that the day appeared they mounted their Canon and began to batter the Fort continuing the batterie all the day following in which time they made two violent assaults though both times repulsed and vpon Wednesday the Souldiers of the Fort finding no succour comming and their Captaine being slaine delivered it to the Hollanders by accord who now are in possession of it Some two houres after the deliverie of this place Don C●rlos de Coloma having no notice thereof marched out of Antwerpe with some six thousand men of foote and certaine Troupes of horse with eight Canon to succour it but finding at his approach that the Fort was taken hee bestowed some shot of Artillerie against it and after hee had skirmished a while with the Enemy seeing no hope as then to dislodge them he made his retreat giving order to the Cavallery to march over the water into Flaunders Thus haue you heard what hath passed in this Countrey within the space of eight dayes all these disasters haue befallen this Land through want of Souldiers to defend it There was about some two moneths since a goodly Armie ready at a dayes warning to march into the field but it was dispersed part being sent to the reconquest of the Palatinate others to the succour of the Emperor and a third part into Lorraine in Monsieurs the French Kings Brother behalfe All I can adde to this former discourse is that there is a generall feare possessing the hearts of the Inhabitants as if they were already in the Enemies clutches We doe heare that some two dayes since the Cardinall de Cueua ranne hazard to be slaine as he was getting into his Coach by a drunken Burger who assaulted and reviled him From Metz the 6. of Iune 1632. Concerning the affayres betweene the King of Sweden and the Duke of Bavaria we haue as yet received no other certaintie but onely that the said Duke is yet considering of the Articles which were mediated by the French King and proffered by the King of Sweden which were these that follow 1. That the said Duke of Bavaria should depart from and renounce and breake off from the League with the House of Austria 2. That he should so dispose of his Troupes and Compnyes and entertaine the same that they should not assist nor encrease the Emperours forces nor the King of Spaines nor those of the Catholike League 3. That he should giue and permit the King of Swedens Forces a free passage thorough his Countryes and for assurance thereof giue some strong place into their keeping as namely that of Ingelstadt or the like 4. That he should contribute a certaine summe of monyes toward the maintenance of his Warre 5. That all places shall be restored mutually that haue been taken from the one or the other during these troubles in Germany Which Articles indeede are very favourable and tolerable and able to accommodate all Neither can they any way seeme harsh to any one who shall consider the Countrey of the same Duke now lying open as a prey vnto the King of Swedens Armie And that at this present he hath no revenues at all A Copie of a Letter written from the field-Armie of the King of Sweden neere vnto Altzeybrugh dated the 5. of Iune Whereas our Army two dayes agoe did march toward the Armie of the Enemie and assault the same not farre from a Cloister neer vnto Steynbach in a Valley We with our Canon haue continued playing vpon the enemy many of our Troupes haue skirmished with some of theirs But the Enemy perceiving that we were stronger then he supposed hee retyred at his leisure and sent before him all his baggage and the most part of his Ordnance and his foot-forces after them and with his Cavallery and some Companies of foot which were left behind kept vs in action to the end that his baggage and Ordnance might be ensured and conveyed In this his retreat our Forces did follow the Enemy close at their heeles and moreover two of the Rhyne-Graues companies of Horse encountered with foure Spanish Troupes and routed them vtterly insomuch that they fled into a wood where they were pursued by our Troupes But by reason that the foot-forces of the Enemy shot so furiously vpon them they were constrained to retyre in some disorder Wherevpon 4. other Companies of the Regiment of Hornech were commanded to succour those two retyring Troupes But they without expecting the approach of them resumed the retreat and so fell vpon part of the Front of their Armie that they caused such a confusion amongst the wagons with baggage that they were compelled to retyre for shelter to Altzey The Enemy durst not so much as follow our retyring Troupes nor the other 4. Companies of Hornechs Regiment but continually seemed to flye from our advancing Army In fine the Enemy left behind them 40. Wagons with baggage and provision and three Cornets And by the high-wayes where they passed doe lie d●ad many Spanish Souldiers and horses which were cut off
