Oneal SIR BY an Expresse yesterday from the Lord Governor Cromwell we hear that he is got safely into the Harbou● at Dublin and hath landed two or three Regiments of the foot the horse being also craning out of the ships as fast as possible they can it s said that his Lordship at his landing were entertained with a great volley from the great Guns in the City And a little before his presence Col. Jones sent forth a party of horse and foot to take in Droghedah who upon summoning thereof the Lord Moor returned a very peremptory answer and disputed the place with great resolutenesse and gallantry insomuch that many many of them were slain upon the place but at last the conflict grew so hot and sharp that the enemy began to article and at last obtained conditions to march away with sword and pistoll upon the surrender of the town with all the Ordnance Arms and Ammunition This action cost us not very dear our losse being esteemed about 70 whereof 30 slain the rest wounded of the enemies about 200. We hear that the Lord Inchiquin hath randezvou'd in Muster about 4000 horse and foot who sending a Letter to Gen. Oneal to know whether he would covenant for the declared King of Scotland c. received answer that he would not engage against the Parl. of England whereupon he advanced with his horse and foot fell upon them in their quarters dissipated part of the foot killed many and took divers prisoners forcing the rest to the Bogs and Woods in which conflict they give out that above 1000 fell under the power of their sword During which action Sir Charles Coot lay not idle in London-Derry but opportunely fore-seeing his advantage sallyed out and fell upon Sir Charles Stuarts quarters killed many took divers prisoners and raised the siege with the losse of 40 men The newes is confirmed from Dublin Ormond hath paid dear of his bowzing Taff Preston and he being met together thought they could destroy the Parl power by drinking healths to their destruction when it s in so many words a Bull whereas Lieu.

Aug. 1649. By Letters from the Hague thus since the late brow given to Ormond by Lieut. Gen. Jones we hear that they are re-bodying about Kilkeny and Muster and that in the said Engagement thirteen thousand of the Princes forces escaped who are gathering together and randezvouzing in severall places but the raising of the siege and defeating that potent power is joyfully rescented by many It is likewise reported that the Princes retinue lately sat in Councell whose result was That new propositions should be sent to the Parl. of Scotland viz. 1 That his declared Majesty would wive his assent for the setling of Religion according to the solemn League and Covenans 2 That he would wholly apply his Ear to the Councell and Advice of the Estates conveened provided that respect might be had to the tender Consciences of those who have adhered to or assisted him But this will hardly be for he must either become a perfect Covenanter or else a despised Prince Many of the Royall party have caused proclamation to be made for Charles the II for the raising of Volantiers but few appears in that engagement Hague 9.

The Scots Resolution touching their King FIrst that prevailing party of Sectaries of England who have broken the Covenant and despised the Oath of God corrupted the truth subverted the fundamentall Government by King and Parliament and taken away the life look upon us with an evill eye as upon those who stand in the way of their monstrous and new-singled devices in Religion and Government and though there were no cause to fear any thing for that party but the Gangrene and infection of those many damnable and abominahle errors which have taken hold on them yet our vicinity unto and dayly to commerce with that nation may justly make us afraid that the Lord may give up many in this land unto a spirit of delusion to beleeve lyes because they have not received the love of truth Secondly Neither is the Malignant party so far broken and brought low as that they have abandoned all hopes of carrying on their former designes against the Covenant and work of Reformation besides many of them in this Kingdom who are as Foxes tyde in chaines keeping in evill nature and waiting opportunity to break their cords and again to prey upon the Lords people That the standing Armies in Ireland under the command of the Marq. of Ormond the Lord Inchiqueen the Lord of Airds and George Munroe who forgetting the horrible cruelty that was exercised by the Irish and English Nations in that Land have entred into a Peace and association with them that they may the more easily carry on the old design of the Popish Prelatical and Malignant party and the Lord of Airds and George Munroe have by treachery and oppression brought the Province of Ulster and Garrisons therein under their power and command and have redacted our Country-men and such as adhere unto the Covenant and cause of God in that Province unto many miseries and straits and are like to banish the Ministers of the Gospell and to overturn these fair beginnings of the worke of God which were unto many a branch of hope that the Lord meant to make Ireland a pleasant Land Thirdly But which is more grievous unto us then all these our King notwithstanding of the Lords hand against his fathers opposition to the work of God and bearing down all those in the three Kingdomes by which it is come to passe that his Majesty hath hitherto refused to grant the just and necessary desires of this Kirk and Kingdom which were tendred unto him from the Commissioners of both for securing of Religion the liberties of the Subject his Mai.
