The first letter from Constantinople the 10. of Iune 1622. VVE vnderstand from Tartaria that there is great mustering of men and that they intend to challenge the Throne of Othoman hauing heard of the death of Osman the great Turke for this it stands all that vast Countrey from Russia to the Indian and Atlantick Seas is diuided betwixt three chames of ancient and noble race The first is called Tartar Cham a mighty Emperor possessing the Prouince Mangia besides diuers other great Countreyes The second Tartar Mechrit vnder whom is desertum de lop and many Nations to the Caspian Sea The third is Tartar Chrim discending directly from the Family of Othoman who both by birth and contract may challenge the Imperiall Crown of Turkey if that line shall faile as is thought that he will doe now or otherwise reuenge the murther of the aforesaid Osman vpon the Iannissaries Also the Letters from Venice make mention that some of the principall offenders that layed their hands on the Emperor are fled and that the rest at home are diuided some holding with Mustapha and some with a yonger brother of Osman aforesaid And that Mustapha desires not the Empire longing onely to visit the Temple of Mecha being rauished with the promises of Mahomet They write also that the principall Musty and some Doctors of the Law haue fore-told and presaged the determination and finall end of the Turkish greatnesse perswading the Visirs at the imitation of the Graecians euery one to step in for a Kingdome or more From Persia they certifie vs that notwithstanding through this dissention in Turkey they haue gotten good opportunity to recouer Tauris and other places left the Sophy being much displeased with the insolent murther of the great Turke as one Prince may act anothers part is onely resolued to raise an army to be reuenged on the Iannissaires wherevpon the Beglerbeg of Arabia hath sent him a present of diuers braue Horses From Alexandria we heare that the plague is so great in Gran Cayro that about 80000. there haue beene buried within the space of foure moneths and that the Iewes are flocking in such numbers to the Sea Townes whereby the traffick is much augmented and increased in the Straites From Algier they write that the Pirate begin to erect a Common wealth among themselues and haue written to the Hollanders that if they will vnite with their forces together they will make an notable attempt vpon the dominions of the King of Spaine and begin a possession there It is reported here that at Naples there hath been an attempt made vpon the Viceroy by the Nobility and inhabitants being perplexed with a dearth but they cry out vpon nothing so much as liberty and lye in waite to put some thing in execution These that come from Rome relate that the Pope hath giuen a free indulgence and pardon of sinnes to all them that will serue the Emperour in his wars wherupon many souldiers and great store of money are sent vnto him The Signorie of Venice hath sent lately diuers Gallies at Sea besides some Gulleons towards Candia and fortified the Harbours in Histria and Dalmatia and vpon the continent about Crema and Brescia prouideth all the places of importance with strong garrisons Letters of Millane make mention that there hath beene an insurrection amongst the Grisons whereby diuers Spaniards and Imperialists haue beene slaine and many places forsaken not without great terrour of the rest From Genoa it is certified that some vndertakers haue taken sanctuary or Asylum being denied a protection from Spaine although they say their debts arise for being engaged about the Catholike Kings affaires They write

of Sigism●nd either to banish or dismisse them about which there is great discontent occasioned and heere giue me leaue a little by way of transsition to wonder at this generation why they ouer all the Orders of Religion should so far vary from true Religion as to delight in murther combustion of Kingdomes ostentation of knowledge rapture of visi●ns and especially setting Princes at division yea breaking the band of amitie betweene Prince and Subiect sure I can yeeld you no r●ason for it but this as it fareth with Children who sucking of a froward nurses breast become accordingly froward and pettish in their liues so they having one Ignatius Loyalta a Souldier to their Father of a fiery disposition no doubt according to his name doe immitate him in the fierie and bloody stepps of warre

that the wilde men about the River of Amazones haue rebelled against the Portingals and Spaniards who governe the Country and rule there Much like that vnfortunate mischiefe which hath happened of

Emperours Marriage for heere are many Nobles and Ladies who professe the Gospel and haue their Congregations without the walles of the Cittie to the number sometime of fortie or fiftie Coaches all
