The Copy of a Letter sent from Mr. Henry jermyn, to a Nobleman in the North, which shows you how busy the malignant party are in their plots and Stratagems. My most Honoured Lord, HAving the honour of an invitation by Madam De▪ Tillet▪ to her House of Bejeare, upon the way we met very happily the Post, I call it my happiness because else I could not have answered your Lordship's desires so instantly as they urged. and it met in such an opportunity, as my wishes could not have made more fortunate, for the Night before I had received Letters from the Lord Finch, which enabled me more fully to your Commands, though I shall but return my Service in your Lordships own Language, but it pleased the Duke when we compared our Letters, to be very merry with that passage where your Lordship says, that you verily believe, that the Parliament will keep their words against their wills, and make the King more glorious and rich then any of his Predecessors, let me assure you his case is spread through the Christian world, yet in no place is more sensibly taken notice of then in France, and I hope ere long you shall find the effects▪ of it▪ which had showed themselves ere this, had not some busy accidents in Flanders, deterred the King's desires, but there is in hand a preparation of nineteen Ships, with such Ammunition and supply, as the greatness of his occasions at home can spare, I have so conjured with Mounsieur Du Hail and his wife, that you shall be assured to have the Bill of exchange for 4000 pounds by a Dutchman, from whom in the interim you shall receive more particular information, and I have dealt as privately as might be, because that you desired the Jewels should not be taken no●ice of, and before I sealed this to your Lordship, I sent my servant away secretly to the Hague, whe●e Van-Derling the Engineer now is, and I am in good hope my Lord, o●r Propostions will fasten. I dare not write your Lordship our hopes and wishes by this return, but I intent to be more large by a Lackey, that shall make shift to see you ere long, be pleased Sir not to forget me, where my Life and Duty is due, and let this assure your Lordship, with what zeal I kiss your most honoured hands, and subscribe myself, Your most affectionate and humblest Servant. Henry jermyne. Bejeare, july, 12. 1642. Several Matters of importance being the most remarkable passages that happened lately at York. THere is daily preparations in the North for some sudden Design against Hull, for there is an excellent Engineer lately come, who hath cast Works and Trenches against the flowing in of any Spring Tides, and something will be done suddenly, and if Hull miss supply, it may go very hard, because a great part of the Town ('tis thought) would start, if they could find an occasion. The Soldiery on this side are very forward, and confident, and in their fancies have shared Hull already, quartered themselves, and disposed of men's Wives and Houses, as in their mirth they do of London. The County of Lincoln, seemed to receive his Majesty with a cheerful Face, and the City presented him by the Major, with a rich Cup, the Commission of Array stands there at a strong posture, and however your penny News at London is scattered, the King's power is not at such a case as they inform you, but like the Prophet's Cloud, enlarges every day. There is come Ships from the Earl of Warwick, to the relief of Hull, and certain Captains discharged by him, are come to the King, and his Majesty dispatched a Messenger to the Earl, to command him to send the Ship called the Lion, which he took, but he returned with the Earl's denial. Most of the People who had their dwellings drowned by the Tides, are come to this side. In Berkeshire 'tis reported there is great combustion about the Commission of Array, a great part being for the King. Here came in this afternoon two Wagons laden with good Money, which made the Cavaliers smile▪ Sir John Hothams' Son they say in a Skirmish with ten Cavaliers, about a Horse taken from him▪ received a hurt▪ in the Arme. Upon, Sunday a supply of Horse; e came from York, the Prince led them very gallantly, and the Lord of Lindsey brought another supply upon Monday▪ There is 4 Regiments designed for Lancashire as they say, upon some news that arrived this night▪ The Country is not, so, drowned as your Londoners believe▪ for the other side of Hull is made very strong with Ordnance▪ and so is all the Shore to Lincolnshire. The last news is, that three lusty Colliers hath brought Ammunition and provision to the King. FINIS.
