Migueleti Highlanders in King of Two Sicilies Service
Madrid and Prague dispatches describe Migueleti forces marching toward Madrid as Marshal Duke de Broglio pushes troops to secure quarters. The king seeks to wipe clean historic debts and unite creditors of former reigns. An engagement near Zwickau with light troops ends with minimal losses. Austrian and Polish cavalry regiments are mobilized to reinforce Silesia. A heavy snow melt delays movements while Haddick leads the empire’s army.

Indian Deputy Frustrates Raid At Keowee Fort
Letters from Fort Prince George dated the 24th recount a late attempt by Indians to seize the fort. Two Indian girls appeared at the riverbank. Lt Coytmore, Ensign Bell, Dogharty, and interpreter Forster met the Great Warrior of Chote who sought a white guard to accompany him to the Governor. He swung a bridle three times, prompting 25 of 30 guns to be readied as the moment of contact developed.
