London Briefs on Court Moves and Naval Preparations
London reports indicate Her Majesty’s youngest brother may join the Lisbon court in a high military post under Portugal. Parliament signed thirty five bills by commission while Stafford residents petitioned against an election result. An extra duty on foreign manufactured cloth is proposed. Navy yards receive orders for several armed schooners. Baron Bompart reports ship stocks and work for crews, with several Genoese and Marseilles built vessels in varying condition. Fortifications are being rebuilt to form a new citadel and stronger defenses around the town, amid a bustling dockyard with many artificers and a thriving academy. A Lisbon mail from the Duke of York packet arrived, with fleet news including Indiamen and expeditions, while several packets and ships are noted at Lisbon and Falmouth.
