Fleet sails for the Bay of All Saints convoyed by warships
Mails from France and Holland report 40 sail under convoy of two men of war bound for the Bay of All Saints. The dispatch notes a planned revolt by enslaved people in Brazil thwarted, and mentions hope to lift the Portugal embargo soon to curb robberies in the city. It also covers Goan unease, alliance treaties, and marginal war news from Silesia, Moravia, and Martinique with regimental and troop movements across Europe.
