Early Morning Mail Arrives From Several Nations
The Dublin Gazette reports a British packet arriving with mails from Gibraltar and Seville on June 2. Spanish camps around Se Roche are said to be reinforced while new fortifications are planned near the bay. Gibraltar defenses are being strengthened and workers pause to mark out lines for a forthcoming fort. The note mentions troop movements to Italy and to Cadiz, and details a July 6 declaration between Britain and Spain sustaining the Treaty of Seville and the Quadruple Alliance, with Don Carlos’ status and Parma Placentia negotiations.
