Prohibitions on Dress in Constantinople and Far-Reaching War News
The London Evening-Post reports from Constantinople that prohibitions on dress remain active by the Sultan’s order and the Vizir maintains power while the Grand Seignor grows more vigorous. The text notes the death of Aly Pafcha Echim Ogli and succession by Muzur Aga. It mentions the Russian squadron near Cronstadt, two 80 gun ships launched at the Admiralty Wharf, and Prussian military movements around Dresden with Daun’s forces near Landes-Crane and Itzenplitz near Dohna. It concludes with scant prospects of new campaigns in Westphalia as Prince Ferdinand’s HQ sits at Munster.
