Appointment and recalls amid European court shifts
A lengthy notice from The Hague reports Vice-President changes in the Chan cery replacing Count Telba, and Swedish Minister Hopken tipped to a war secretary post as diplomacy unfolds. Guelderland deputies press for Orange stadtholder terms, while Dutch rulers reshuffle offices and sign a military convention with Brunswick Wolfenbüttel. France assigns Saxe governance for Dutch conquests as Maastricht siege looms, with concerns over Austrian suburbs and potential harsh terms in peace talks. Additional dispatches discuss peace terms on Cape Breton and Luxemburg exchanges, as Allied tensions rise between Britain, France, and Vienna.
