Fragmentary dispatches describe a night assault on a Vistula side position, cavalry losses for Count de Munich, and a city entry that favors a western approach. The magistracy seeks a cessation of hostilities via Prussian mediation as troops stir near Coblentz and Sinfheim, with Eugene returning to Heilbronn and Berwick marching toward a Groß Rhine theater.

Liberty and Elections in London and York Upset
A long London letter discusses Tory Whig conflicts over the Excise scheme and Crown power, urging Tory voters to oppose reform. It reports York County election spirits for Sir Miles Stapylton against the excise faction, with pre election polling, declarations at Guildhall, and notes on Alderman Barber’s large tally and city support. It notes further political moves, court appointments, marriages, and Sir James Thornhill’s death and legacy.
