Rotterdam reports privateers forming in Dutch ports and in Caratao and Surinam to target enemy trade if Aix-la-Chapelle talks falter. A drowning woman near St James's Park and a pistol attempt in Holborn are noted, plus naval movements from Bengal to Lisbon and France's East Indies rumors doubted for credibility.
