Turbulent Times Report from Belgrade to Vienna and Paris

From Belgrade the Turks bring abundance of merchandise and fear continuations in the Ottoman Empire as the Sultan plans large payments to the Emperor before New Year. Fresh Naples letters note troops for Sicily near Naples, except Genoa-bound forces. The Rotterdam Courant reports a forged Quadruple Alliance copy brought for signing by Abbot du Bois. Dutch and French dispatches describe Swedish privateer activity at Dunkirk, cantonal deputies denying aid to France, and Sweden marching troops toward Stromstad with talk of new regiments. Paris imposes a broad ban on vagrants, with penalties and rewards for compliance, while reports of Sicily alliance actions and imperial troop movements circulate.
