W. MDCXLVIII The DESIRES OF The Lord Jnchequin in Jreland to the Parliament of ENGLAND With a relation of the affaires and conditions of that Kingdome as it was certified by Letters from Dublin SIR ALl things here are still in a distracted condition and all sorts of provisions very scarce and hard to come by Wee looke upon England as a storehouse or reserve on which we confide as the chiefest earthly meanes to keep and preserve us from utter ruine and destruction but the disturbances which are noysed to be in England is a great discomfort to us and a sadnesse to every well affected heart The Lord Jnchequin still keepts compliance with the Rebels and the conditions made between them are as yet on both parts kept unviolat●d the Rebels to shew that they confide in the Lord Incheqin have delivered and surrendred up into his Lordships hands many of their holds and places of strength some of them being of consequence Also it is with confidence said that the Lord Inchequine desires to make some overtures to the Parliament of England and to desire the Parliament for moneys and an ordinance of Indempnities Also the Lord Inchequine pleads that what he did was to act by that faction and partie of Catholikes in Ireland which did acknowledge the King of Englands right and title there to destroy the other that are for the King of Spaines interest in that Kingdom but whether the Rebels will begin and fight with the King of Spaines party it is not yet known but what their intentions are a little time will make appeare Here hath lately been a fight at Sea betweene some Waxford Frigots and certaine Barks which were laden with corne and provision the Waxford Frigots after a short encounter tooke five Barkes laden as aforesaid and the Passengers are come to this C●ty not any thing worth April the 18. a party of the Rebels attempted a garison of ours named Kildare and with eight scaling Ladders so large that 8. might goe up a breast they ascended the Walles halfe an houre afore day Some got into the towne but were presently put to the Sword the Rebels beaten off and three or foure score left dead in the place besides many others mortally wounded which got away on our part two Lieutenants and a Serjeant were slaine and about twenty common Souldiers and Captaine Dison wounded one of the Lieutenants was Lieutenant Brewerton We have yet great hopes that if convenient supples come from England much good may be done this Summer against those bloody Rebels for if the Protestants party were but thorowly furnished with provisions and some aditionall Forces whereby th●y might be able to ingage with the enemy upon all occasions or to keepe the Rebels close within these places which they command the famine would consume them all sorts of livelyhood is so exceeding scarce amongst them Many of the beast which they have dye so extreamly with a Murraine which is amongst them that all sorts of Cattell will be very scarce many of ours dye also Collonell Jones intends to improve his utmost ability against the Rebels and hopes to give the Parliament a good account of his proceedings this Summer Dublin The Copy of a letter from Bristoll relating the condition and state of that City Sir THe state of the things is something unsetled here as wel as in other places which makes the Malignants bold to say do somethings which may prove cleerly prejuditiall to the Kingdome if not timely prevented Here are some royalists privately listing with whom many take part they declare there undertakeings to be for God and King Charles the Auxilleries do not yet comply with them nor take part against them also the Trained Bonds are not so carefull s●it were fitt they should to suppresse them but let things as it were hang at hazard and suspence but if p●ivate mettings and listing● of Malignants be not supprest by some speedy course it may cause sad effects both here and in other parts of the Kingdom and then those negligent people when they feele the smart will wish they had prevented those Messengers which they may then suffer if they wil wi●fully neglect the prevention thereof having opportunity and power so to do Bristoll April 19. 1648. It is reported that Poyer is beaten and 16. of his Colours with many prisoners taken A letter containing a perfect Relation of the condition and state of things in South-wales with the Declaration of the Earl of Ca●berie Sir Richard Price and others against Poyer who have deserted him although formerly of the Kings Army and how the Welch Smiths have cut down their Bellowes and many left their Habitations upon advance of the Parliaments Forces SIR THe Malignants from many places do yet come in unto Poyer use their indeavours to strengthen him and what they can they perswade the Welch to assist them and to that end many lyes and fiction are scattered and spread abroad the better to animate and incourage the simple misled Welch to joyne with them as that the City of London hath declared against the Parliament and that the Armies are divided and ready to ingage the one against the other with many to this purpose but it is hoped that their assistance wil not be nothing so great as they expect for the ●a●● of Carbery who hath once been ingaged against the Parl. and formerly a Commander in the Kings Army ●s also Sir Richard Price others have withdr●wn themselves out of their society and also out of that Countrey which may happily by their example move others to do the like The Earl of Carbery and others have likewise declared their d●slikes of their undertakings and would not have that there should be so much as any suspition that they will either joy●e with them or associate with them for they do declare and ingag● their honour that they will neither joyne with them nor assist them neither shall any of their f●i●nds as farre forth as they can perswade or hinder them but on the contrarie they will ingage with and assist the Armie against them His Lordship hath also voluntarily explained many other tokens of love and good affection to the Parl. and Army Yet the more 's the pitty some of those parts are universally bent to oppose the Parl. and Army what forc●s soever comes as appeares by this for as the Parl. forces march forward they make away and carry away with them their wives their Children and drive away their Cattell with what good● they have or can get together and are fl●d into he Woods and into the Mountains lea●ing their houses empty many of their Smiths are also gone they themselv●s having cut ●own their Bellowes before they went for they being a●pi●efull mischievous people have in many places spoiled and carried away what they conceive may be of use to the Parl. Forces and in some places there is neither a Horse● shooe to bee bad nor a place to make it if one would give 40 s. to have an Horse shod Therefore some extraordinary and unusuall course must bee taken to end this trouble and bring downe the stomacks of these litle lesse then barbarous people It is supposed and reported that Ma. Gen. Laughorne is come in unto Poyer but whether it were he or not we cannot tell but the Welch l●tly shot off all their Guns to welcome some person of quality The Welsh care not for fighting but upon passage and scarce then nei●her except they have a good opportunity for the Welsh hav● alwaies been observed to be cowards and seldome act but upon advantage Colonel Horton hath taken fifty of the Welsh Souldiers prisoners whereof ten are Gentlemen and were taken fortifying a house at Broshock for whose exchange a Drummer hath been sent into Wales unto Poyer This present Munday being the 8. of this instant May it was commonly rumored up and downe the Towne that there hath beene another late fight in Wales betwixt the Forces commanded by Colonel Horton and the Forces commanded by Colonel Rice ●owell and that Colonell Horton hath obtained a great Victory taken 16. Colours and divers prisoners The truth whereof few daies will make manifest Imprimatur G. M. FINIS
