THE DECLARATION AND Resolution of the Emperor of Germany , touching the King of Scots ; and the Debates and Proceedings of the Christian Princes , Dukes , Marquesses , Earls , Lords , Noblemen , and Agents , at the great Meeting at Regensburgh : With Their Answer unto His Message , for Supplies against England . HIs Imperial Majesty the Emperor of Germany having received a message from the King of Scots for a supply of men and money communicated the same to the General Assembly , consisting of the chief Princes , Dukes , Marquesses , and Nobles in Europe , who after several Debates upon the Propositions presented by the Lord Wilmot , returned Answer , That no moneyes could be raised , for that their present condition was such , being brought very low by the late warres , they were not in any capacity to a●●ist their friends , neither with men and moneyes , the present exigency of their own Affairs requiring timely and speedy preventions of future Insurrections and Commotions ; yet so far would they condescend , That at his own Charges they would give liberty to raise a number of men , if desired . The like Answer is returned by the King of Denmark to the Lord Wentworth ; who having represented these sad Tydings , by way of Aviso , to His young Master , his Majesty of France was earnestly solicited to supply his great wants and distressed condition with a considerable sum of money , and other Utensils of war , &c. But Cardinal Mazarine declared , That it was no wayes feasible for the Crown of France , to be aiding or assisting him in the least , during their present Distractions and Commotions ; for that it might prove a Design very pernicious and destructive to the great work in hand , by reason that the enemy were very potent , and his Maj●stie not in a condition at present to fight them . For indeed certain it is , that Conde is chief Master of the Field , and that he hath besieged the famous City and impregnable Garison of Roeroy , and that he is likely to carry it , by reason that General Turene dareth not give him battel , being far more n●●erous then the Kings party , and consists chiefly of old forces , bravely resolved , and well disciplin'd . And several Challenges hath his Highness sent to the Kings General , daring him to an Engagement ; but refusing to answer him , the said Prince sent word by a Trumpeter , That seeing he would not come out of his Trenches to fight that before it was long he would see him in the Plain of Saint Denis neer Paris , where he doubted not but to be with his Army very suddenly , consisting of 27 resolved horse and foot , no wayes inferiour to the valiant and approved English Red-coat . To which Gen : Turene replyed , That it might easily be discerned , by his high and lofty language , with what people he had lived , and held correspondence of late dayes . But the Duke of York , so called by the Monsieurs , not being satisfied herewith , returned this Answer , That for the prevention of further effusion of blood , he desired that they two might dispute the Quarrel ; but not permitted . A Letter from Holland . SIR , THe English fleet , by reason of the foul weather , are gone off this Coast , and Dewit taking an opportunity thereby , sailed out of the Texel with sixty men of War to convoy their Fleet into the East Countrey , and to endeavor getting home the East India ships , who still remain at Copenhagen . We hear that young Vantrump is before Leghorn with the Bonadventure and seven men of War , and that he hath blocked up Mr. Elger an English Merchant . Since which time ; it is advertised , that divers others are joyned with him , so Report makes him 35 sayl , and that he intends to divide into two Squadrons , the one to ply at Leghorn ; the other , up to Barcelona ; so that keeping in the Trade way it is very difficult for any shipping either to pass up and down the Straights ; yet we do not hear of any more then one English ship takën of late , which was purchased at a dear rate ; for she fought it out to the last man , and buried within the curled Ocean above 200 men before she was taken . But our Letters from Malaga the 7 dito advise , that the ship called the African was safely arrived there ; notwithstanding , in her way , she met with a whole squadron of the Hollanders ; but it pleased God she brake through them all , and safely arrived at her wished for Harbor , though she received above 100 shot in her sayles and tacklings , and yet not one man either killed or wounded . Bril Septemb. 10. 1653. We have received ●dvertisements , That part of the English Fleet are attending the motion of Dewit , and that the rest are designed upon another excellent Atchievement . Withall , that 35 Prizes are brought into Yarmouth , Alesborough , and Harwich Roads , lusty Vessels , but their lading not so considerable , being for the most part laden with Salt , French wines , Brandies , and some Vinegar , all homeward bound from Nantes and Rochel . From whence , we hear , that there hath been a very great Earthquake in Natolia , where a Mountain had over-whelmed a whole Town , to the loss of much Treasure , and above ten thousand persons were buried in that heap of Earth , to the great astonishment of many hundreds in those parts .
