Proposals of Peace and Military Movements Around Maestricht
Reports from Aix la Chapelle and Maastricht describe a suspension of arms, with the Hessians near the Meuse and French forces extending toward Diest to ease troop withdrawal. A potential armistice references Convention terms, while British officials announce preparations for a Holland voyage and a forthcoming peace proclamation. Amid this, privateers pressure French ports and naval activity increases as stock prices and Atlantic affairs register the ongoing conflict’s economic tremors.
