Warlike Preparations Countermanded After Negotiations
News from multiple ports reports that French and Dutch warlike measures were halted. Troops near the city have returned, embargos lifted, and transports partly paid or fully settled. The Swedish envoy Teffin promises reasonable terms to end the Sweden crisis, while Grand Vizir’s deposition shifts frontier affairs. Prince Charles of Lorraine’s army decamps toward Bavaria, and Spain’s Don Philip’s troops engage nearby, with uncertain outcomes. European powers discuss alliances and potential army plans, amid fluctuating frontier control and naval movements.
