seruice in lieu of them We learne from France that the Duke of Momorancy is gathering great forces against the Protestants of France and that he is appointed to besiege the Towne of Nimis in which the Duke of Rohan is in person As likewise that they make there great warlike preparations by water against the English Moreouer that the English haue slaine and throwne ouerboard many French men and souldiers that were bound for the Iland of St. Martin From Dansicke the 7. of September On the 24 of August after dinner time went the Duke of Holstein into the field to looke out for a conuenient place to inquarter his leger which is separated from that of the Polonians to whom are likewise ioyned the Forces of the two Commanders named Dohnhof●r On the 29 of August about the euening came the King of Poland with many men of note and his Courtiers and followers into this City and was with great state and pompe fetcht into it by our Citizens and well entertained afterwards by our Magistrates The day before were the Ambassadours of the States Generall of the Vnited Prouinces of the Low-Counties which labour very earnestly to make peace betwixt Poland and Sweden gone towards the Polon●an Generall of the Field On the first of September went the King of Poland to see and to view our walls and all our sconces and works round about this City and especially the new raised sconce which the souldiers cal commonly Schenke-sconce by reason of the strength of it and at the same time there were 44 peeces of ordnance discharged besides many muskets both by water and land The King liking these workes exceedingly well reioyced much at it and commended much to his Lords the endeauors and faithfulnesse of the Dansickers saying that they had well laboured and were his loyall seruants and that they had not done as they of Elbingen and others On the second of September went the King of Poland with the Prince his sonne and diuers great Lords besides our Burgemasters and some of our Aldermen early in the morning toward the Fort which is called Weichselmundt and when they had viewed there all things very well our Magistrates did feast very stately both the King and his followers and about the euening there were many pieces of ordnance discharged both in the 12 Ships which lay thereabout and in the Sconces And it happened that about the same time that a Galley of the King of Poland being put to Sea to try whether it could well sayle it encountred with a Swedish ship and had a pretty combat both with it and 3 other for a little while which were afterwards cruelly battered by our ordnance which lay in a sconce neere which the Swedish followed the said Gally The said King hauing seene this sport with contentment returned the same euening againe to the said City and departed from thence on the 4 of this moneth three Postes being sent to him and went directly towards his Army In the weeke which is last past were the Ambassadors together and the Polonians were to propound some articles of peace betwixt Poland and Sweden From Brunswicke the 2 of October We haue nor as yet any other newes from the Deputations day which is appointed to be kept at Mulhowsen but that diuers Ambassadors as of the Emperor Electors Princes and States of the Empire are gone thitherward They of Wolfenbuttel although they are very close imblocked sally neuerthelesse daily forth and slue few dayes agoe many Imperiall souldiers and husbandmen that would stop the water which runneth to the sayd Towne The Towne of Newburg or the Gouernor of it namely the Colonell Limbach hath offered to surrender it vpon certaine conditions to the Duke of Lunnenburg and amongst the rest that the Emperour should grant a generall pardon to them that are in it But if that be refused he will blow vp the said Towne and ruine all that is therein From Verden the 8 of October Both the Imperiall and Danish souldiers make themselues daily stronger and stronger in this Bishopricke The Danish hauing raised a strong sconce at Borcht to maintaine themselues there they haue fired the Towne of Verden and burned it quite to the ground From Newburg we heare no newes seeing that the said Towne being now very strictly besieged the Posts which come from Cullen haue altered their passage and trauelled by the way of Newstadt But it is thought that it shall be surrendred if the Gouernor of it can obtaine a pardon of the Emperor seeing that he hath had it twice before The Imperialists make great warlike preparations to beat the Danish quite out of the Bishopricke of Bremen of which we shall shortly heare more From Stoade the 7 of October This Towne is replenished with Danish Souldiers but they are in great feare seeing that the Imperialists strengthen themselues daily in those parts Our Bishop who is now at Lubecke as likewise the Imperiall Ambassadors which are yet at Hamburg exhort the States of these Lands that they will remember the oath which they haue made to the Emperor The Danish lye yet intrenched neere Crimpen and Lukestadt and we haue not heard that there hath lately any thing of moment beene done by the Imperialists or Danish From Pinnenberg the 10 of October We haue not as yet learned any certaintie how it standeth with Rensburg and with the Imperiall Campe but we expect it daily The Generall Tilly is gone from Lawenburg towards Winsen which is a Castle of the Duke of Lunnenburg FINIS
