Agitation and political upheaval across Europe and Paris
Reports from PUBSBAY dated July describe rising agitation by the Gostederates and their growing power, with M. Aprettel joining their ranks and Czerni appointed envoy to the Porte. Denmark alters robbery penalties, shifting to fortifications or house confinement with branding, and Paris buzzes over Count Launtgudin’s Rights of France with seized copies. A Bed of Justice is sought by Comme de du Marche to establish a new tribunal, provoking speeches by Advocate-General Perrot and resistance in the Chamber of Accounts.

Woman Poses as Soldier in India Service
From Aberdeen comes a curious tale of a young woman in Edina who, longing to see her brother in the Indies, dressed as a man and joined an India recruiting party. She remained in town with other recruits, then sailed to the Indies, serving six weeks before officers discovered her sex. The India Company sent her back to Aberdeen where she arrived last week.
