Empress of Russia to treat with French court over war
From Petersburg April 18 reports say the great canal to the Volga is clear of ice and ships bound for Persia depart. Moscow dispatches note the Empress awaits signs of French good offices to resolve conflicts, with Britain and Vienna pressure shaping policy while negotiations limp. Baron Tyrawley’s arrival alters tone. Swedish Danish accommodation returns. Madrid discusses Cartagena squadron. Paris flags a royal succession puzzle with several candidates eyed for the Seals and hints Cardinal Tencih may go to Lyons.
