Mail from Flanders brings distant fleet movements
Sunday reports a mail from Flanders announcing the Marquis de Squillace’s arrival from Madrid. Two warships enter port from Cartagena, with seven more ships of the line and various escorts to convoy four thousand troops to the Bay of Honduras. Pinks from the Levant report armaments at Constantinople, debated as targeting Malta or Egypt. Local forces march from Paderborn toward Lilienthal and Ham, with Huffars near Bodinfeld and Scheller hunters moving to Dortmund. News notes a Guarthar town nearly reduced by fire or accident.
