A DECLARATION OF THE King of Scots Concerning the Parliament Crown and Commonwealth of England And the Prince of Cond's Letter to the Councel touching the same c. Inclosed in a Letter from the Court at Paris the first of May 1652. SIR THe King of Scots hath resumed the way of mediation for peace and union between his Royall Majesty and the Prince of Conde proposing as an Expedient that Cardinal Mazarin might be sent away as a Commissioner to treat about the general peace of Europe but the Duke of Orleans seemed to wave it at present until such time that by the advice and counsel of the Prince of Conti he was moved to accord thereunto in pursuance whereof his royall Highness gave his assent That young Charles should be permitted to persue his mediation Whereupon He immediatly sent the Lord Montague with a Message to K. Lewis wherein he declared himself as followeth May it please your Majesty WHereas by sad experience in these our late distempered and unhappy Times We are sensible of the great Miseries and Calamities that are incident both to Prince and People upon the distempers arising between the Head and Members occurring chiefly from the flames of those who are frighted with mortal apprehensions and retain unto themselves diversity of fears and jealousies at the remembrance of those dangers which wise Counsels and great Favourites may suddenly involve them in Therefore having seriously weighed the sad effects thereof and the great devastation that doth befall both Crown Kingdoms thereby which with grief of heart I speak it I humbly offer to your Majesty this Expedient for preventing of these inevitable Ruines That your Majesty will be pleased to consider upon some convenient way for the expelling of the Cardinal though it were but a limitation of time prefixed within your Royal Breast and to satisfie the desires of the people without which little safety can be expected and all hopes of Reconcilement utterly frustrated and taken away The King having received this Message or Declaration returned thanks to his Cousin Charles but withall desired him not to intermeddle any further therein giving assurance that he was resolved to keep and protect the Cardinal Whereupon the Citizens of Paris were exceedingly exasperated in spirit offering to raise 20000 men for the Pr. of Conde against the King but its probable that upon receit of the unwelcome tydings of the great blow given to the Princes forces by Gen. Turein and valiant James Stuart they may change their resolutions for indeed the Defeat was great being managed by a surprisal the exact Relation whereof take as followeth The King drawing near Paris Marshal Turein Generall Hocquincourt and Col. Stuart being to attend the march of the Court with their Armies came along the Rivers of Yonne and Seine And Turein perceiving that if he got betwixt the Princes Army and Paris he might be able to interrupt their communication with the Parisians marched with such care and expedition that he arrived at Chartres while the same time the Princes army removed from Montargis to Estampes And being resolved to set upon the enemy he marched all night and found them daawing up their army near Estampes who spying the Kings army immediatly retired into the Town placing their Foot within the Works and Fortifications but caused their Horse to pass the River Hereupon the two Generals drew up near the Walls of the Town and perceiving a good space of ground not wel guarded betwixt the outmost Suburbs and the Town where they might cut off that part of the Suburbs they attempted that place and began the assault with much resolution and the Town was well maintained by the Defendants but the Kings Ordnance having the advantage of a commanding Hillock did so annoy the Princes party in the Town and made a breach in the Wall so that the Kings forces entred and after a sharp dispute became Masters of the Town seizing upon the Magazine and putting divers to the sword during this dispute the titular Duke of York brake in with the horse doing great execution The Princes party were almost all killed or taken and his own Regiment totally cut off for they denyed quarter The Horse stood all upon a Hill on the other side of the River as Spectators of this bloudy Tragedy and never attempted to relieve the Foot The occasion of the Princes Army drawing out thus was to welcome Madamoiselle from Orleans whence she came to see them This action was the more observable in that the Kings party consisted onely of 2000 Foot and 500 Horse against 6000 of the Princes notwithstanding they had the advantages of a deep Trench a strong Wall and the Town it self The Duke of York for so he is called here commanded the Kings horse who charged so puissantly that his very first Onset sufficiently testified he fought either to Death or Victory for after the first Volley he brake in upon Wirtemberg and the Princes own Regiment doing great execution and making the field resound with shrill ecchoes In this fight was slain Mounsieur de Bloin a Gentleman of irresistable courage Yet notwithstanding the loss whereof could not damp the general rejoycing for so important a Victory Which was pursued with such eagerness of spirit by the aforesaid Duke that the Kings party were in half an hours time exceedingly transported with excess of gladness The King hearing of this Victory sent an Express to young James to hasten to the Court where he was triumphantly entertained and is now in great esteem amongst the French Immediatly after his reception he presented the King with a Narrative of the whole business and a particular List of the Officers and Souldiers killed and taken on both sides a Copy whereof I have hereunto annexed A List of the Officers and Souldiers on both sides at the bloudy Fight neer Estampes about 18 miles from Paris Slain of the Prince of Condes party Monsieur Brook Major Gen.

Godwell Cornet Haveroon Since this great Defeat we hear that the Prince of Conde hath taken the field with his new Auxiliaries and that He hath sent a Letter to the Parliament inviting over the English to his assistance Indeed they are as much desired by the one party as dejected by the other but that which causeth the most admiration is their drawing towards the Sea-coast whose design is said to be for the Port of Bordeaux Several Commissions are given forth by the Scots King to raise forces against England but amongst the rest Sir Geo. Carteret late Governor of the Isle of Jersey hath broken his Articles with the Parl. by his actuall engagement against them for the King having already got 7 Frigats at Sea a Commission to fight and plunder the English He hath lately been abroad with the Francis Patrick and Michael which carry 44 pieces of Ordnance and hath taken a gallant ship bound for Newfound Land wherein was great store of Gold and Silver He hath taken several other prizes and hath brought them to St. Mallows from whence he hath sent a Present of Gold to his Master Paris May the 1. 1652.
