Dispatches from Lisbon report a conference between Don Mello de Carval and Lord Weymouth with plans for recall. Admiralty sent orders to Commodore Proby in the Mediterranean as a land tax resistance spreads beyond Middlesex. Political intelligence describes cabinet shifts, naval plans for Port Egmont, and a tax law crackdown.

A church theft and a major list of Smythian Company officials sparked town intrigue about civic rights and influence.
A chaotic OCR fragment mentions a group called CERBER Us and a plea or order related to preserving comfort, pensions, and freedom. The garbled lines reference a president, kingdoms, and interference with mental freedom, signed by order.

Reports from Trieste detail Ottoman brutality at Patras and Navacino, including the massacre of male inhabitants after a Turkish rally. The English Consul’s son narrowly escaped beheading, while fear spreads as 40,000 Turks march and a Russian victory in the region looms amid other European tensions.
The paper notes that the Letter from Flushing will not be inserted after review. It mentions six Flushing magistrates signed for honourable motives and not removed, contrary to other papers.
