A Letter from Major Robert Holmes, Commander of the Heneretta, sent unto Baron Battavella in Spain.  
My Lord,  
BEing appointed by comm●nd from His Royal Highness the Duke of York, to wait on Your Excellency with one of His majesty's Ships, the King of Great Britain, I think it fit to let Your Excellency know▪ That I am safely arrived upon the Coast, and intend to Anchor at Gatharia Road, where I hope to hear from you, and in order thereunto have sent my catch, to bring Your excellency's commands. I did intend to put in to Passage; but finding the entering of the Harbour so narrow, I dare not venture with a Ship of this concernment without Your special Order; and if Your Excellency think not this place convenient, be pleased to appoint any other, and I shall immediately set sail towards it, if wind and weather will permit. The enclosed Letters were given me by Count Constang, and Monsieur de Ovietta: I shall humbly beg Your Excellencies pardon for not waiting on you with them myself.  
My Lord, Your excellency's most affectionate and humble Servant, Robert Holmes. From on Board the Heneretta, off of Cape Martin Chegoe, Aug. 8. 1660.

Two days ago arrived here from Sweden, the Pa●sgrave of Su●zhach, and the Prince of Anha●; they intend to stay here some few days, to wait on the Queen of Sweden, and then to return into Germany. The confederate Forces are now at last broke up in Holsten, being appointed to quarter this night at Rensburgh, and to morrow at New Minister; and those 600 horse which were said to continue in Holsten, are likewise to withdraw on the 21 instant, and to follow after the rest.

Vienna, 25. Aug.  
Letters which the last Post from Gratz, intimate, that his Imperial Majesty was to proceed on his journey for Carin●hia and ●rain at the beginning of the next month, accompanied only with few of his Court, and resolved to go so far as Triest on the Adriatic Sea coast, where the V●netians are a preparing of several Nav●l divertisemen●s and curiosities, to entertain his Majesty; which it so, than his majesty's return would not he so sudden as otherwise was expected. The Venetians pursue their Lev●e● in these parts, with much eagerness, and get a number of good soldiers of the Bava●ian disbanded Forces into their service. The Estates of Nether-Austria are to Assemble here the next week: We are advertised from Hungaria, that the Count of Serin, upon Order from his Imperial Majesty, hath withdrawn his Forces from the Fort of Canischa.   

Venice, August 6.  
Two of our galleys, with many armed B●●kes, are lately arrived at Ancona; the Turkish pirates upon information hereof, retreated out of the Gulf with their Booty: But others are since gone to the Isle of Elba, where they have plundered the Town of Piumbino, and carried away many slaves, together with the Nuns of the Cloister in that place. The Turks having received a supply of 4●0 horse in Canea, they have so far made their approaches to the City of Candia, that they begin to annoy it with slinging of fire into it; But ours, to relieve the place, have drawn their Forces together about Cerigo. Here arrived lately a Turkish galley, which was mastered by 170 Slaves, who all had their liberty and a piece of money given them.

Hague, September 20. S. N.  
The Lord's States of the Province of Zealand, to the number of twenty six, having been fetched up with several Coaches to their audience with the Lords' States of Holland, Monsieur Adri●n Vet, Pensioner of the States of Zealand, made a very eloquent and large Speech, wherein he remonst●ated to them, those motives and reasons which induced his Principals to settle and establish the Government of these Provinces upon their ancient Foundation, under a Lieutenant or Captain Admiral General, for which trust they had nominated his Highness the Prince of Orange, according to their resolution taken on the seventh of this month, desiring the States of Holland would be pleased to concur with them therein: In order whereunto, a conference is to be held b●tween the Deputies of those two States, to endeavour a joint condescension to, and ratification of the premises. What the result of it will be, a short time must discover. There is no certainty yet of the Ambassadors going hence for England, and it is thought that they can hardly have their dispatch these six weeks.   

An Extract of the Resolution taken by the Lord's States of the Province of Zealand on Saturday the seventh of August, S. N. concerning his Highness the Prince of Orange.  
We the Lord's States of Zealand having most seriously and deliberatively ●n divers Sessions considered of the ●enor of the fourth Article touching their Conventions, and the respective eminent charges heretofore successively held by their Highnesses the P●●●ces of Orange of immortal memory; and nearly reflecting on what by these conjunctures of times and affairs ought principally to be observed, as tending to the greatest honour, welfare and service, as well of this S●ate in General, as of this Province in particular: we do once more declare it to be our judgement and opinion (as we have done several times heretofore) that to the beforementioned end and purpose, the chief management of the public concern must be invested and entrusted with certain Eminent men and persons of Quality and Extraction, in pursuance of those several Remonstrances, and Resolutions vigorously set forth in the beginning of the troubles and afterwards, as well by the state's General, as the respective Provinces. And although the misfortune of many intricate occurrences happening in these late years, after the decease of his highness' Prince William the second, in these, as well as in the neighbouring Countries was a great hindrance and could not well allow, that such a Resolution as was necessary and much wished for, touching the appointment and Election of such a chief and certain person, for the Government, should have its desired effect; yet finding, that by God's Gracious and unserchable Providence, those unhappy distractions and troubles are ceased, and taking notice of a more favourable Constitution of affairs and opportunities as to the whole Christian world in general, and these Provinces in particular, which to the redress and resettlement of the State ought to be neglected, and consequently reassuming our beforementioned wholesome Intention of Electing one person or other qualified, who most worthily and with the most confidence could be entrusted with the chief Government of this State in General, and of this Province in particular; We the said Lords' States of Zealand can find no person of more Credit, worth or respect then his Highn●ss the present Prince of Orange, he being not only the offspring of those Princes, who with the hazard of their Estates and blood have laid the foundation of this Commonwealth, and by their excellent and courageous conduct purchased so honourable and glorious a Liberty, which to the Admiration of all the whole world we at present enjoy; But being likewise by blood, affinity and Alliances annexed to the greatest and mightiest Princes of Christendom, by whom this State in its troubles and necessities hath been principally supported, and whose friendship and Confederacies for the time to come will be of most concern to us; considering also his Princely Qualities and virtues wherewith God Almighty hath been pleased to endow his Highness from his very infancy, very well agreeing with the Government and humour of these Nations, who seem to take a special pleasure and well-liking of them, and to promise to themselves much Happiness, Blessing and prosperity; and finally regarding, that the said Prince hath a fair Estate, and large Possessions in most part of the Provinces of this State, and particularly in that of Zealand, whereby it can be maintained, that before all others, he is mainly interessed to endeavour the preservation and welfare of this State. We therefore, being solemnly summoned and assembled, as is usual, upon this present Subject, have resolved and determined, out of the alleged and other weighty respects and reasons, with a general and unanimous consent to declare;  
1. That the Prince of Orange, in behalf of this Province, together with the other Confederates of the Assembly of their High and mighty Lordships the state's General, shall be chosen and nominated Captain and Admiral General of the United Netherlands, with a convenient Commission and Instructions to be agreed and concluded upon between the several Provinces, and a yearly revenue of 100000 Gilders for his maintenance, to be levied upon the state's account, and to begin from the time the Commission is issued out.  
2. To which purpose, certain Deputies are to be appointed by this assembly, to repair to the assembly of the Lords' States General, to tender to their Lordships this point of electing a Governor, and with the best reasons to procure their consent, and a speedy effect of it.  
3. That a tender of the charge of Governor, Captain and Admiral-general of both the Provinces, be presently made to his Highness the said Prince of Orange, with a convenient Commission and instructions to be issued out without delay, to which the Lords' States of Holland are to be required to give their concurrence, that so in regard of their common interests, and according to ancient practice, this affair may be determined pari passu, and with joint advice; and that a Commission be drawn and sealed, as it was done in the year 1647.  
4. Yet in case this appointment of the Prince for the abovementioned places should not take effect with the Lords' States General, and the States of Holland, contrary to the expectation, wish and good intention of this assembly, that then, upon a full report of their Deputies concerning their negotiation, this Assembly will take care, and order affairs so, as may most tend to the honour, welfare and service of the country.  
5. It is the unanimous consent of the said Lords' States of Zealand, that the beforementioned Prince of Orange shall not exercise those eminent charges of General and Admiralship, till his Highness come to be eighteen years of age; which charges (during his minority) are not to be executed by any under the name of Lieutenant, but remain as now they are, which two conditions are to be expressly inserted in the beforementioned Commission.  
6. That presently by an unanimous consent and appointment of all the Members assembled, the dignity and place of the First Noble shall be presented to the Prince, he being the most conspicuous and qualified Nobleman of this Province; yet upon such clauses, restrictions and precautions, as the same dignity hath been heretofore conferred upon the Princes of Orange of immortal memory, without diminution or prejudice of the privileges of this Province, and other the several Members of this State.  
7. Upon the conferring of such charges, honours and preeminences on the said Prince, all possible care and order shall be taken for his highness' Education and Breeding, as may best befit his Princely person and Illustrious Family.  
8. That his Highness shall be allowed at the 16. year of his age, to have access to the Council of State, according as it was practised by his highness' grandfather Prince Frederick Henry, that so his Highness may be instructed in the Fundamental Laws and maxims, and the ancient and Renowned Government of these Countries, and the better learn the humour and inclinations of his good people and countrymen.

THe Reader is desired to take notice, That his majesty's Printers having published the Act of Free and General Pardon, Indempuity and Oblivion, in a more contracted Form then ordinary, that it might be of small price; yet notwithstanding some persons have not only presumed to reprint the same, to their very great detriment, but have also committed several gross faults, as in Page 5. they have left out (any of) Page 7. l. 11. (or Acquittances) Pag. 8. li. 19 (the day) li. 43. (Majesties) left out. Pag. 12.

On Monday the third instant, the Accusation against. Col.

Worden in all his majesty's concernments, not only faithful, but so industrious and prudent, as that no Person would be more acceptable for their future Trust. Upon consideration whereof, and that several Lords of the Council affirmed, that in the time of the late Tyrannical Government, the said Colonel was highly instrumental to advance his majesty's interest, and that by their communication with him, their Lives and Fortunes had been in his power; expressing their esteem of him as of a Worthy and Loyal Person, his Majesty declared that He did fully acquit him from the accusation and and imputation he had suffered under, and that He esteemed him a very honest and Loyal Person, and would accord●ngly admit him into his former favour. In earnest whereof his Majesty hath given him the honour of his hand, and his Highness the Duke of York hath gladly received him into his Service, as formerly, to the joy of many worthy and valiant Persons, who had long known the colonel's courage and loyalty, and were sorry a mistake in others should be get any suspicion upon a Person so highly deserving.   

Westminster.  
And now we can tell News which all the good subjects of three Kingdoms will rejoice at; how that great Instrument of sedition and Firebrand, Hugh peter's, is close prisoner in the Tower of London. The particulars take impartially thus. On Friday last intelligence was given that Peter's privily lurked about Southwark; whereupon Sir Edward Nicholas his majesty's principal Secretary of State, sent two Messengers of his majesty's Chamber in ordinary to apprehend him: That night they entered the house where he lay, which was one Broad's a Quaker in S. Thomas parish, whose daughter Mrs. Peach then l●y in. The Messengers searched, but missed Hugh Peter's, who (according to his custom) had crept into bed to the young woman, where the Messengers modesty forbade their search; she having been delivered but two days before. There lay Hugh; and the Messengers finding a private passage out of that into the house of another Quaker called John Day the cobbler, (thus Quaking runs from house to house;) they searched there also: In the interim Peter's escaped from childbed, leaving behind him his Cane with a R●pier in it, a small pocket-Bible, and a grey Cloak, (for possibly now he was in his Frock.) But on Sunday last about six at night, in a place called the Maze, in the same parish near horse-way Down, at Nathanael Mun a Tape-weavers house, Hugh peter's again lay in. The Messenger Mr. Wickham coming to the door, found it not locked nor latched, but kept fast by the Tape-weavers wife, (how faithful that sex are to peter's!) who thrust her back to the door, till the messenger's strength proved Mrs. Mun was the weaker vessel, and suddenly running up stairs, found that door also kept fast like the other: 'twas Hugh himself, whose shoulder at the door put the Messenger hard to it, for Peter's now thought he thrust for his life. But the Messenger encouraged, in hopes 'twas peter's, whose strength failed, as his fe●r increased, at last the door flew open, where Hugh peter's was found (a true Quaker) trembling after an incredible manner: Yet now (in his wonted way of confidence) he stiffly denied himself to be Peter's, but said his name was Thompson (perhaps Hugh the son of Thomas) threatening the Messengers with an Action at Law for offering to ●ffirm he was Hugh Peter's; and therefore refused to go down with the Messenger, till Mr. Arnold (servant to Mr. Blagge of his majesty's Bedchamber) Mr. Hopkins a good neighbour, and Mr. Harris the honest Constable came up the stairs, who all expressed much diligence and heartiness in assisting the Messenger. And yet after all, he refused to come down (still wondering they would think him peter's,) so as they began to force him down, and then he promised to go along, but first, said he, give me leave to gather up my spirits; whereupon he called for Drink, and drank two quarts (two full qu●rts) of small Beer, for the House had no strong. Then Hugh desired he might speak privately with Mris. Mun, which they denied, unless he would speak in their hearing; after which he said, I will go, but I beg for the Lord's sake that you call me not Mr. Peter's, for, s●id he, if it be known that I am Hugh Peter's, the people in the street will stone me. At last out he came, but suddenly stepped in again, saying, I must speak privately with the woman of the House, (a woman was his chief Confident) and now they had some tugging to fetch him back, in which struggle, feeling his skirts hard, they unrip● them, and found five pieces of Gold and some Silver Medals, and out of his pocket they took his Alm●nack, for which he struggled more than for his Bible. Thence they forced him to the constable's House, where they sent for his Landlord Broad (an old Accuser of honest men) who being absent, his Son-in-law Peach, (whose happiness it was that his Wife had been but 〈◊〉 days delivered) came in his stead, who being asked if he knew that Cloak, Cane, and Gloves, answered, that they belonged to that Gentleman; pointing to Peter's. But Hugh still with his wonted mode●●y denied it, name and ●ll; though soon (forgetting himself) he unawares put on the Gloves, and said, they were his own; and then without more trifling they brought him to the Tower, and delivered him into the custody of the worthy Lieutenant Sir John Robinson (in the blood of whose Uncle, that ever-renowned William late Archbishop of Canterbury, Hugh peter's was elbow deep, and go● the Archbishop's Library of most choice Books, as well as his majesty's Library at St. James') which he hath now turned to a pocket Bible and an almanac. All this while, and at the Tower also, Hugh averred his name was Thomson, and denied himself to be Peter's though there his x Mr. Birch the Wardour knew him and called the man by his name; till at last in private to Sir John Robinson he confessed who he was, and then (with most ingenious modesty) acchsed the Messenger and the rest for taking and bringing him to the Tower by the name of Thomson. So that he who before threatened an Action against those who offered to call him Hugh peter's, doth now accuse them for calling him Thomson. This is St. Hugh, who when our Glorious sovereign was led to Martyrdom, fell so he●vy upon his righteous soul, blaspheming him upon his then Text (Psal. 149. To bind their Kings in Chains, &c.) and may now make himself the Title of his own Book (Called Good work for a good Magistrate) where among m●ny other, he hath these six motions.  
1. That Paul's Church may be pulled down to pave Thamestreet. 2. To d●stroy colleges, since there are none in the Gospel, pag. 4. (for Hugh was expelled one.) 3. That Physicians should take small fees, pag. 33. (What was Hugh's disease?)— 4. That Adultery should be punished with a merciful heart pag. 52. (and not like Butchers.) 5. That all unmarried maids be put to spin, (to prevent the best use of hemp.) 6. That all Records in the Tower might be burned— But the Records still are safe in the Tower, and so is Hugh peter's, where now we leave him.  
Last Monday morning about eleven of the clock, that notorious John Harris (commonly called Major Harris) was executed in Leadenhall-street, over ●gainst the merchant's house where he committed the Burglary by a forged Warrant in the Lord High chancellor's name. This is that Harris who h●d been Conductor to Oliver Cromwel's Forces, and a frequent false Witness against his majesty's good Subjects.  
On Sunday last his Majesty went to Greenwich to refresh himself for some few hours in that Yaugh which was presented to him from Amsterdam; which Yaugh or Pleasure-Boat will scarce be equalled by any in these parts of Christendom.  
On Tuesday (September 4.) the Lord Roberts Nobly entertained his Majesty with a supper at his house at Chelsey.
