European naval action and court notes from Paris to Ceuta
From the Paris Gazette July 6 and Madrid June 18, reports reach Ceuta of Moorish forces at Tetuuan repelled by galley and shore artillery, with about 150 slain and minor Spanish casualties. A trading vessel with Jews from Leghorn and 4000 pieces of eight was seized. Moors reinforce with 500 slaves and construct new works. Other items: Neapolitan ships in port, prizes taken near Sicily, Modena borders, royal marriage in Modena, and Paris mint decrees curbing notes and disciplining coin traders. Parliament debates money scarcity and diamond restrictions, with arrests and royal mandates.
