Mail from France and Malta naval engagement report
Yesterday arrived the Mail from France and Lisbon with letters from Mazagaon about Trinitarian Monks, their travel and enslavement rescue, and Arab robberies. Malta reports the St Vincent warship clashing with a 46 gun Algerine vessel, hours of cannon fire, and the Algerine surrender after eleven hours. 178 of 357 Turks remained alive, with 25 Christian slaves freed to France. Further notes cover London diplomacy with Walpole returning to Compiegne, court trials in Old Bailey, a Wardens case at the Fleet, and miscellaneous financial quotations and stock listings.
