A Declaration of the further proceedings of the Prince of Wales, and the time of his joining with the Scottish Forces in the North.  
SIR,  
we have had a fresh alarm from the Sea, by the revolted Ships. The unexpected landing of near 1500 men, in these parts from Holland, much amuse them; the terror so great to many, that they begin to leave their Habitations, the enemy act nothing as yet, expecting additional forces very suddenly, they have relieved the two Castles of deal and Sandwich, and have l●nded most of their men.  
The D●ke of York is Lord high-admiral of all his Majesties ships, and it is said that he is aboard with these ships, but some say that he is with those that are to follow.  
Prince Maurice, the Prince Electors Pal●atines second brother, is Rear-Admirall as we hear, and is also said to be aboard with them.  
The Officers of the ships that disserted the Parliament, have all their Commands, & further promises, with large Commissions granted to them. There are about 500. of the old Seamen, with some recruits added to those which were belonging to the ships before. There are also Officers for 4. Regiments, that are brought over to be landed here in England, to serve the King against the Parliament, some of which Officers are taken out of the ships that revolted. But those Officers have but thin Companies, for they cannot all make above 1000. common Souldiers.  
And many of them, both Officers and Souldiers are Walloons, such as served under Quartermaster Gen. Dolbier, the great plunderer, that said he hoped this war would last one 7. years, but most part of them are English, there are also some Dutch and French, There are in all the ships 2 or 300 piece of Ordinance, that belong to the Ships, & good store of Ammunition, and provisions for their use by Sea.  
There are also some 4 or 500 arms for those that they brought for land service.  
The Country( not only those that have stood firm for the Parliament, but many others, who have lately appeared against them) seem to be much( not only discontented, but) enraged against those that land; Crying out( with much sense and apprehension of the danger) That foreigners are brought thither to surprise them.  
We hear that Sir Miles Livesey is preparing to draw towards them with what strength he can conveniently march with.  
We hear that his highnesse the Prince of Wales hath declared for the North of England, and doth intend to join with the Scots forces, who are now entred; and that he is to march in the Van of the English Army, and hath sent a Commission to Sir Marmaduke Langdale, designing him Lieut. Gen. to his Highnesse, together, with the Earl of Branford, and the Lord Wilmot, have resolved to unite with his highnesse, Duke Hamilton, Lord General of the Scottish forces, and so to advance towards the Southern Climate,( if not opposed by the way.) But that which doth most support the drooping spirits in these parts, is, the gallant resolution of mayor Gen. Lambert, and his Army, and we hear that he hath lately fought with the Enemy, killed about 50. and took 100 prisoners; but by reason of the Scots sudden advance, he was forced to retreat from Carlisle, and is marching towards Perith.  
On Tuesday July 12. the Prince of Wales, the Duke of York, the Prince of orange, Prince Rupert, and Prince Maurice, dined altogether at one Table in the Hague and it was worth the observation to see so many young Princes, whom distress had removed from their own Dominions, to lay by their sorrows for the present, by meeting altogether with a young Prince, that was so glad to see them. But after dinner, it is said, that the Duke of York took his leave of the rest of the royal Princes, and posted towards Gorith, where he came aboard the constant Reformation, and were entertained with great acclamations of joy, being received, by a great volley of above 100. pieces of Ordinance, and at the same time, all the Officers and Seamen engaged in an Oath and Declaration, to be faithful to him, for the restauration of his Father, and the ancient laws of the Kingdom; a Copy whereof I have here enclosed.  
In pursuance of the Covenant I have already taken, I AB, d●e in the presence of Almighty God the Searcher of all hearts, solemnly vow and protest, That in the first place I shall hearty endeavour the freedom and Restauration of my sovereign Lord King Charles to all his full and just Rights: and will be have myself faithfully in the service of his Highnesse the Prince of Wales. Next I do vow all true obedince to my Lord High admiral the Duke of york, and that I will conform myself cheerfully to his Highnesse lawful Commands; which shall be for the service of his royal Father: that I will hold no correspondence with the Enemy, But shall faithfully discover all designs that I can come to the knowledge of that nature; and shall endeavour with the utmost hazard of my life to defend and protect his Highnesse Person from all danger; nor will ever give concent to deliver him up without the King his Royal Fathers Command, or his own consent And as I shall be faithful & just in the performance of all this; so help me God, and the conten●s of this book.  

The last great and bloody fight at Colchester.  
SIR,  
Vpon the 14. instant, the Lord Gen. drew out a party to storm Sir John Lucas his house, which they accordingly did, and the same they took another strong place called the Hive, with divers prisoners and Ammunition, and upon 15. day they proceeded to force the Gatehouse, the Church, which were as well fortified as manned; the besiegers fired four piece of Ordinance, which they within speedily answer with four more, the command then given to fall on, and storm the works of the Gatehouse, the enemy throw down the Ladders, the stormers cast in granades very thick, at which the enemy is amazed, amazed, some hold out their handkerchiefs for quarter, others more resolute, fire gallantly; the dispute is very hot for a while, at length they within give back, the besiegers enter part of the Work, and throwing in a hand Granado where some of the Enemy stood to their Arms, it chances to light in their Magazine, consisting of about 4. Barrels of Powder, which blew up about 40. of the Enemy, one of the besigers hurt with that blast, but none killed about 5. in the afternoon they gain all, and begin to dig, pull out the dead bodies of the Enemy finding here a leg, there an arm: Some of the prisoners who had quarter, say they were sevenscore, and yet but 60. taken prisoners, not any could escape the besigers being between them and home; some of their poisoned bullets were sent up this evening for public view: The besieged hereby being now shut up within the City Walls, set the Suburbs round the Town on fire, so fearful and horrid a fight, as seldom the like ever seen in England before; the fire increases from East-street, to North bri●ge( near a mile) and with that violence that it s a wonder to behold.  
Colchester leaguer july the 18. 1648.  
By letters from the Isle of wight, it is certified, that the Kings Majesty inquires much after the proceedings of a p●rsonall Treaty, with which he seems to be much affencted, and doth declare, That he will then so ●abour to satisfy all interests, that he will leav● no party discontented. In rel●●ion to which, the House of Commons have made a furt●er progress therein, and have debated concerning th● pl●ce for the Treaty, whither at London, or t●● m●les distant; London not by any means thought secure, the inconveniences being numerous and destructive, and therefore came to this Resolution, That after the Bills be consented to and signed, as is desired, the King should be desired to name 3. places within 20. miles of Westminster, 2. of which to be at least 10. miles distant from Westminster, where the Treaty shall be, and then both Houses of Parliament shall have liberty to make choice of one of them, as they shall think fit.  
By letters from Ireland it is advertised, that the Lord Inchiquin is actually joined with the Rebels; the Lord Taffe, and he have declared and resolved to bring an Army for England, towards the latter end of this month, and intend to land in the Western parts of this Kingdom; they depend upon some of the Revolted ships for transportation, who gave assurance to the Lord Inchiquin of the sound by letters, long before they revolted, but desired his Lordship to secure others in Harbour, for their number would not be considerable to bring over an Army, 2000. horse are in readiness for transportation, and 4000. Foot, as is reported. Alas poor England! will Irish Rebels, and Scottish enemies, fight for Englands privileges? No: they and both joined in one design for the King and Kingdoms ruin.  
July 18. Letters from Kent say, that a party of colonel Riches Horse marching towards deal Castle, met with some of the Dukes forces who had landed thereabouts, & after some skirmish, and dispute together, killed 5. or 6 of them, and took 20. prisoners, with little or no loss.  
From the North letters say, that the Prince was expected to land at Barwick on the 13. of this instant July, and so to march in the head of the Scottish and English Army.
