NEWS FROM THE ARMY  
SIR,  
SInce my last unto you, dated the 18. of this instant month, We have received further Orders from the General, for removal of our quarters towards the Western Road, which was accordingly done, several Regiments being now quartered about Reading, Windsor, and the rest of the adjacent towns. Our train of Artillery is come from Oxford to the General's headquarters, and divers soldiers designed for Ireland ●re again joined with us. Some rumours in the army of high particulars, but I will wave them, and rather clip the wings of such suggestions, then to have them dispersed for advancing of discord But I trust to the great Jehovah of Heaven, that if a further breach doth arise betwixt the Parliament, City, and Army, that He will be pleased to close it up again, and firmly knit the hearts of all in those silver thrids of amity, that so the glory of God may be exalted, His Royal Majesty advanced into his throne, and peace & truth established within his Majesty's Realm and Dominion.  
We have received advertisement at the Head quarters, that a party of horse are advanced nearer towards your City; but (I say now, as I said before) I hope with no evil intent; Our agitators sits close (being two out of every Regiment) and what ever they conclude upon, the army gives their whole assent.  
We have received some advertisement of a Letter sent to the General, from both houses of Parliament, to require him to deliver the King, to the Commissioners now resident with his Majesty, and so to be conducted to Richmond, and to require him to withdraw his Army forty miles from London, to forbear recruiting his Army, or to possess any new towns, Castles, or Fortifications; but the army hath declared their unwillingness to resign up the King, until such time that they have received satisfaction and redress of their former grievances proposed to the honourable houses of Parliament; yet thus much I dare presume to say, that his Majesty's residence in the protection and power of the Army, doth not a little embolden them in their present design, but it doth also promp them up to high conditions.  
For other particulars, I shall refer you to the enclosed, and remain  
Your affectionate friend, T. Nichols. Redburn June 21. 1647.   

Postscript.  
UPon the close of this Letter, I received information of a Messenger arrived at St. Albans, sent by the Parliaments Commissioners from Newmarket, with Propositions to the General. 1. To know his answer to the Votes of both Houses, concerning the disposal of his Majesty's Royal Person to Richmond. And secondly, that He would be pleased to send them a speedy answer, for further satisfaction therein. The said Messenger further intimated, that there was a late conference betwixt his Majesty, and Mr. Peter's the Minister; at which conference, his Majesty told the said Mr. Peter's, that he had often heard talk of him, but did not believe he had that solidity in him he found by his discourse, after his Majesty had ended his discourse, Mr. Peter began with these expressions. Humbly desiring his Majesty that He would be pleased to hear him preach; his Majesty replied, no, not as yet, but he would have a further Conference with him another time, and so Mr. Peter withdrew.   

A Declaration set forth by the Right Honourable the Lord Mayor of London, concerning the Trained Bands, and Auxiliaries, belonging to the said City.  
These are to declare and make known unto all, that in the beating up of the drum and sounding of the trumpet, the intention is, for the suppressing of tumults and outrages (such as are and may be committed, for the preservation of the peace, and for the defence of the Parliament and City.
