Naval and political updates dominate, including Keppel’s succession concerns, Westminster electors, and trade impacts from Mediterranean, Irish, and American commerce declines amid war. A Scilly letter warns of French frigates threatening homeward-bound ships and a Portsmouth dispatch notes fleet movements.
