From Hungary, Octob. 28. 1621.  
IN Hungary, affairs go not very well for Bethelem Gabor, and the marquis of jagendorff, are already in Moravia, and make themselves Masters of the field, winning one place after another with great speediness: yet nevertheless the treaty of Niclausburgh goeth forward.  
The accord between the Duke of Bavaria and Count Mansfield is broken off, wherefore the Duke of Bavaria followeth him foot by foot.  
They in Franckendale behave themselves very brave and manfully, and if other places had done the like, it would not have been in the Palatinate as it is.  
Even now, I have news, that Count Mansfield is arrived at a place called Necker, within four miles of Heydelberg: and it is thought that Franckendale will be aided or succoured by him, next Monday or Tuesday.  
At Newenmarik, the jesuites and Capuchins preach openly in the Castle, and Parish Churches.  
From Pr●staw in Silesia, the 17 of Octob. 1621.  
Although the purposed Diet in Silesia was deferred by the Lords and States of the Country: yet is it appointed again by the Emperor and Duke of Saxony, that it shall be kept, and begin ere October be finished, because all manner of preparation belonging thereunto is in a readiness, and already set forward.  
The marquis of jagendorff was in Silesia with 20000. taking one place after another, and so went into Moravia to the Prince of Transiluania, to whom came 10000 of Walachia, who spoil and burn all they meet withal, so that it is reported, that these forces together, are very near 50000. I mean Bethelem Gabor's, and the marquis of jagendorff.  
Glaty is not as yet taken, but holds out still.  
Out of Poland, news is come, that there were slain in the last conflict between them and the Turks, 20000. Polonians, and at least 40000. Turks and Tartars.  
It is also certain, that the marquis of Brandenburg arrived in the end of September last, at Warschan in Poland, whom the King of Poland met, with 500 Heiduckens, and many horsemen, and so the said marquis very shortly after received the feoud of the King.  
Out of Prussia the news is, that the King of Sweden hath taken in Riga, or Rigwe, and that the King of Poland is gone for certain, as resolved to meet with the Turks army.  
In Silesia, it is likely it will be very dangerous to live and continue, and therefore many of them are about to buy land in the Country of Brandenburg, fearing it will fall out very ill with them in their own Country.  
The Lord of Do●…n is come unto jagendorff, with 3. Companies of foot, and 4. pieces of Artillery, and so put a Garrison the rain, from whence he went unto Trappaw, and took with him the Ordnance that were in jagendorff, getting a great booty by the way.  
In Moravia there is like to be an uproar, and the Wallachiens will fall directly to the marquis, whereupon they suspect the marquis in the upper Silesia, who would march thorough their Country with 8000. Hungars and 6000. Dutch, which hath caused a great fear amongst the Soldiers on all sides.  
From Vienna, 25. Octob. 1621.  
After that Captain Reuber, contrary to his oath, had surrendered up the Town of Scalitz, Bethelem Gabor went forward with his forces all along Moravia, and as soon as the Soldiers which lay in Strafnitz perceived his coming, they made themselves masters over their Captains and Commanders, hurting and wounding some of them, especially one of Haugenitz very sore, because he would not yield unto them, and afterwards they threw him out at a window.  
Thus when they had bound all their Captains and Commanders, they delivered them and the Castle up unto Bethelem Gabor, who would have put them all to the sword; but by the means of the marquis of jagendorff they were saved: yet a great fear was raised in the Country by this means, that the treaty of Niclaus●urgh should have been deferred: but since there arrived 9000. Silesians in Moravia, it is begun.  
In the mean time, the Hungarians did set upon Holl●schaw, the Lord Cantilar of Bohemia, and the Lord General, with their followers, and took away from them what they had: notwithstanding, the Earl of Emerid, Titzio, and five other Hungarian Lords are come unto the Treaty, and shall (no question) have what the whole country can afford.  
Three days ago there was put in prison here, an Italian, called Cro●la, with his son and servants, for coining certain pieces of money, amounting to the value of a thousand pound.  
Bethelem Gabor and the marquis of jagendorff, have taken in most places on this side the Marsh, and our forces have likewise taken in the best quarters on the other side all along, till you come to Randisch, where they mean to remain on both sides, until a Treaty of peace is concluded.  
The Bu●lean forces do daily great hurt, continuing burning and spoiling the Country hereabout Newstadt: and although the chief places are beset with Soldiers, as Hanbach, Prugg, Altenburgh, Eisenstad, and Newstadt, yet they dare not venture upon the enemy, either for fear of discomfiture, or leaving their Towns naked.  
Since our forces left the Schutt and Thombia, and went into Moravia, they have endured great scarcity, and still want necessary provision: for the Soldiers living by provant, and getting none, could neither pass thorough, nor travel any longer, insomuch that many horses died for want of provender, and as many Soldiers for want of victuals, so that they are not able to resist the enemy: beside, the sickness & dearth which is increased amongst them, doth trouble & affright them more & more.  
Out of prague, 27. of Octob. 1621.  
They in Tabor do hitherto hold out, and have only 50. very expert in shooting, so that none dare show themselves before it: all the forces which are hereabouts, were brought together, being about 4000 foot, and 600. horse, who should have given an assault upon the Town, but finding themselves too weak, they desisted: whereupon they determined to undermine it: wherein likewise they failed, by reason of the situation upon a stony and hard ground.  
The Prince of Lichtenstein cannot as yet go forwards with his regiment of foot, and 500 horse, because all the men which can be mustered, are brought before Tabor. Likewise the Duke's forces go not forward, but lie here and there on the high ways side, robbing and stealing from all they meet: and although the Duke of Saxony hath been called upon diverse times by the Emperor to march with his Army into Moravia: yet for any thing we hear, he is not so much as a going.  
The Hungarians all this while are fall'n very strong into Moravia, doing very much hurt, and although the Imperials follow them, to intercept their outrage, yet are they too weak to do any good upon them.  
The Prince of Lichtenstein went yesterday in the forenoon with a few toward Rundis, where the Archduke Charles is to meet him.  
From Neurenbergh, Octob. 26. 1621.  
On Sunday last, there passed by us Monsieur Tilly with 66. companies of foot, 44. troops of horse, 9 Pieces of Ordnance, 1500. wanes, and 5000. horsemen, all which went presently to Forth, where they pitched their Camp and resolved to remain.  
Hitherto they have had provision sent unto them from hence; they did much hurt by the way, and terrified all the Country: Whether he followed with this Army after the Count of Mansfield, who then lay at Rottenbergh, is uncertain, because they suddenly encamped, as (belike) understanding of a new Treaty between the Duke of Bavaria and the Count Mansfield.  
From the Palatinate, the 26. of Octob. 1621.  
The Ritterschaft lieth as yet at Neckerhansen, and thereabouts.  
The enemy before Franckendale, hath got the half moon by Raldenlech already, and they have been upon the wall at Franckendale, but were forced to a retreat by the valour of the defendants▪ they look daily for Count Mansfield, who as it is thought, will quarter himself about Masbach, and then no doubt, as soon as he comes, Franckendale will be aided and relieved.  
Last Friday there was a skirmish betwixt the Spaniards and Captain Obertrant, who carried away with him three Pieces of Ordnance, leaving the fourth in the lurch: all these he took from them very bravely.  
At Manhaime the enemy would have taken the Ship-bridge away, but they were beaten back again with no small loss.  
Last Saturday the enemy made another strong assault upon the Sconce before Franckendale, wherein the English lay, but were beaten off again with the loss of 700. men, whereof some of them stuck so fast in the marish, that they were there cut in pieces. There is a rumour that the Earl of Nederysenburgh was slain with a Piece of Ordnance: some say he was but hurt: but it is sure, that certain chief Captains were slain in that assault. About midnight they made another assault upon the half Moon, and took it with two Pieces of Ordnance, two ton of powder, with certain clothes: but ere they could go quite away, all was recovered, and they lost again many men, besides 300. that were wounded. There were found dead of the English some 80. but it is uncertain how many they brought into the Town with them. Their hope is now in Count Mansfield: for they have sent the enemy word, they have nothing for them but powder and shot: in which, they were as good as their words, as it should seem: for news came presently again, that they have beaten the Spaniards once more from the wall of Franckendale.  
From the Palatinate, the 30. of October. 1621.  
That the Count Mansfield marching day and night, is come into the Palatinate, his forces being 16000 hath joined himself with Sir Horacio Vere.  
Spinola hearing of it, made toward them with his forces: they perceiving him willing to fight, joined battle with him, slaying 3000. of his men; and following him so long as daylight lasted, killed many of them in the flight.
