Auto da Fe at Lisbon shock and royal attendance noted
Yesterday's Lisbon mail reports a Sunday spectacle before the Holy Inquisition with thirty three men and twenty nine women condemned and paraded. Several new Christians faced death or hard penalties for bigamy sorcery and apostasy as the King and Queen observed the sentences. Elsewhere the bulletin covers naval growth in Madrid, intrigues in Constantinople and Stockholm, Moscow executions, Polish church and army debates, and London notes on finance and society.
