Another great and admirable VJCTORY Obtained By his Excellency the Lord Gen. MONK, Against the Scottish forces: With the total routing and dispiersing of General Glencairns Brigade; the number killed and taken; and the pursuing of them above three miles by Major Bridges, and Captain Babington. With several other Remarkable Occurrences, touching the Transactions of Military and STATE Affairs. London, Printed by K. Wood, 1654. Another great and glorious Victory obtained by his Excellency the Lord Gen. Monk against the Scottish forces. THe Lord Gen. Monk having refreshed his wearied Army, near sterling, he again drew forth against the enemy, and upon his advance towards Loughaber, where Middleton lies with his scattered forces, another party of the enemy were discovered: Whereupon a party of five hundred Horse and Dragoons were commanded forth under the conduct of valiant Major Bridges, and resolute Captain Babington, who charged the enemy with such abundance of magnaninity and dexterity of spirit, that they immediately routed them, and embraced the pursuit for three or 4 miles, doing admirable execution and taking about 150 prisoners, with the loss of 7 men. The enemy consisted of about 1500 men, being part of Gencairns Brigade, and going to unite and join with Middleton; against whom, valiant little Morgan is again designed; but the enemy decline engagement. By an Express from Hainant the 27 of July it is certified, That the King of Scots being gone from Peron towards the Spa, was met within a League of Peron by the marshal Thurenne, and de la Ferte, who conducted him as far as the Enemy's Country; whence they returned with the D. of York, who is now made Lieutenant Generalissimo. Soon after the Governor of Cambray of the Spaniards, met the King of Scots, and conducted him to his Lodgings, and there feasted him like a Prince: Since which time he is gone to the Spa. The King of Sweden having sent new Letters of Credence to Monsieur Bonnel his Resident; his Lordship had Audience by his Highness in White-Hall, being attended by Sir Oliver Fleming, master of the Ceremonies, and divers other Gentlemen. And after a very grave and learned Oration, he presented his Highness with the Royal Condescensions of his Lord and Master, To confirm and maintain all things particularly contained and specified in the Articles of Union, etc. After which, the two Deputies from the Duke of Holdenburgh had both Audience by his Highness; and then the Secretary from the States of Venice Unto whose assistance, a gallant Fleet is preparing for relief of the Christians against the Turk: Between whom there hath been two great Naval Fights: but in the first the V netians lost the Galley of Milan, Monsieur Moricivi was killed, and his Galley blown up with powder; but after three days vigorous and lamentable engagement the Venetians became Victors In wh●ch memorable and Christian Dispute, the Turks lost 20 Galleys, five Mahoncs, and six men of war; and the rest were forced into the Isle of Scio, where the Venetians have had a second Victory, and again sunk 6 of their Galleys, and taken six ships, and three Mahones, with the loss of three of the Venetian Galleys. The French go on victoriously with the siege at Stenay; and with as much vigour before the Camp at Arras: Indeed, true it is, great has been their success since the making of the Duke of York Lieutenant General; and that upon his approach within a League of the Spanish forces before Arras with the whole Army upon the way of Douai, where he entrenched upon a design to cut off all provisions from the enemy; the Prince of Conde at first represented his Opinion at a Council of Officers, that the enemy being but 14000 the best way would be to engage them with hopes of success, but his advice was waved. Then the Duke gave them an alarm, and faced them with his horse, which the French perceiving, made a sally with some horse and foot with such vigour and resolution, that they routed the Spaniards at first; but the Prince of Conde coming in seasonably rallied them, and forced the French into the Town again with some loss; in which conflict his Highness fought half an hour sometimes on horseback and sometimes on foot, at the head of the Trench, where the valiant Knight de Crequy, who commanded the French, had his Arm broken to pieces, and was hardly gotten off, and several other Officers and soldiers were killed and taken. Since which time, Marshal Thurene hath presented himself before the Spanish Lines, in hopes of breaking through to relieve the City; but the business proved not feasible, so that they were forced to retreat with some loss. Since that 5 or 6000 of the spanish horse with some foot in the Rear, went to take and fortify the passage of saint Paul, five miles from Arras, and as many from Air, to secure the Convoys sent toward the Spanish Camp, which Gen. Thurene having notice of, pursued them with a body of 7 or 8000 horse, to spoil the design of the Spanish forces. But since that another party of 4000 horse of the spanish Army have been to meet a Convoy, which they have conducted safe into the Camp; which being done, they were presently sent to join with the first party commanded towards the said St. Paul; so that we do expect very suddenly to hear of some engagement between these two parties.
