Sir John Cuff Receives King After Spa Return
Yesterday the Speaker of the House of Commons Sir John Cuff, Bart, waited on His Majesty for the first time since returning from the German spa. General Freytag, recently arrived from Hanseatic harbor, was also received. An ambassador from France wired a letter from Rouen. The writer describes a long journey from Paris to Lyons and back, noting Burgundy’s wine shortage and Lyons as a bustling city with poor wine and abundant timber and hemp.
