Mercurius Publicus : COMPRISING The Sum of Forraign Intelligence ; WITH The Affairs now in Agitation in England , Scotland , and Ireland . For Information of the People . Published by Order of the Council of State . From Thursday June 14 to Thursday June 21. 1660. Naples , May 15. 1660. DOn Emanuel Caraffa , Field-Marshal-General of the N●apolitan foot , hath mustered his men this week , in order to ship them away upon the Prince of Montosarchio , being designed for the service against Portugal . In consequence of the Peace betwixt the two Crowns , our Viceroy hath set at liberty all the French that were prisonere of War in several places of this Kingdome , and hath so favourably used them , that they have reason to be very well satisfied of him . Rome , May 2● . 1660. The 15 instant , the Pope came again hither from Castel Gandolphe , and the next day , being the White-Sunday , he held Chappel at the Quirinal , where the Mass was sung by the Cardinal Barbarin . Venice the same date . By the Letters from our Fleet , we have no confirmation of the reducing of the Isle of Negroponte , but they say only that Seignior Bembo , the General of Candia , hath sent thither four ships , with some Companies of Souldiers , to hasten the taking of the same . A great quantity of Bisket is preparing here for the forces that are to pass from Provence into Candia for the service of the Republick . Vienna the same date . The Emperour having received the confirmation from his Ministers in Prussia , of the subscribing of the Treaty of Oliva , hath sent advice thereof to all the Princes of the Empire . He hath likewise dispatched two Expresses , the one to the Grand Seignior , and the other to the Bashaw of Offen , to complain of the hostilities exercised by the Turks in Hungary , enquire into their design , and declare unto the said Bashaw , that unless he will speedily draw off his Army , his Imperial Majesty will endeavour with his own to force him out . In the mean while , the Turks continuing their devastations in the Country , order hath been sent to the General of the Imperial Forces quartered about Cassubia , to be ready to march , and in case of need to joyn with Prince Ragotzky , to whom a Gentleman hath been also sent , to con●ult with him about the means how to make a stout resistance to those Infidels , and hinder them for the future to make any irruption into Hungary , whither the 500 horses lately come from Bohemia have been sent , for the use of the Artillery . Rome , May 24. 1660. The Pope is returned hither from Castel Gandolphe in much better health , then he was gone from hence , yea , and is now better then he hath been in a long time . The French here are very much displeased at the design which he shews to have to transfer the Chappel which the Colledge of the Cardinals holdeth every year in the Church of St. Ives , to that of the Sapience . The Queen of Sweden hath sent already part of her Retinue , and is to follow shortly . Stetin , May 29. 1660. The Swedish Commissioners in Prussia having sent advice to the Governour of Wismar of the conclusion of the Treaty of Oliva , he caused the same to be published in the said Town , together with the cessation of Arms , which is also very punctually observed by the Imperialists ; and yet General Wurts our Governour hath lately caused much cattel to be carried away by his men out of the lower Pomerania . Flensburgh , May 30. 1660. The Danes do still very much annoy the Town of Tonningen , having yet lately burned two fire-houses thereabouts , because the Inhabitants had with their Canon forced two Ships to retire , which General Eberstein had caused to come neer the place to block it the straighter ; and unless the Commiss●rie●a● Gluckstad , where they are still assembled , do speedily agree , it is feared they will come to greater hostilities . Lubeck , Iune 4. 1660. The 26 of the last , the Governour of Wismat having shipped eight hundred men , they landed in the Isle of Fameren , which is divided from Holstein by a small arm of Sea , and having chased some Danish horse , and forced the foot to run to their forts , they begun to plunder the Travellers ; but an Imperialist Captain , with the Militia he could gather coming upon the Swedes , they retired in such haste , that they could not secure their booty . It is feared that irruption may cause some obstruction in the Treaty between Swedeland and Denmark , the ratification whereof was expected . Genoa , May 29. 1660. A ship arrived this week from Lisbone , doth confirm the great preparations that are now making in Portugal against the Spaniards , and that they were working with great assiduity about the fortifications of the said Lisbone , as well as of Evora , Villa Viciosa , and other places upon the ●iver Guadiana . Turin , Iune 5. 1660. Their Royal Highnesses have made choice of the Count of ●a Trinite to go and complement the Duke and the Dutchess of Parma , who as we heard from thence lately , were preparing to go and assist at the Christening of the Duke of Modena's Son , who was lately present incognito with his brother Prince Almeric , to all the rejoycing made in the said place of Parma . The forces which our Prince is to afford to the Republick of Venice , are to go march very suddenly , expecting only the Commissary that is to come from thence with the necessary ●●rks and provisions ; but not above three troops of ho●●e , each of fifty men , could be made up of the ten that were remaining on foot , the rest having been disbanded , upon their refusal to serve in Candia , whither they were designed . Ierpignan the same date . Yesterday , the Kings Order for the restitution of Boses , Cap de Quieres , Sean d' Urgel , and Belvore , arrived here . The subjects shall remain in the Boussillon , where the Bishop of Orange , and Don Michel Salva● , the Spanish Commissioners are expected , for the regulating of the limits of Cerdagne , and of the 35 villages that are to remain to the French . Aix , Iune 8. 1660. The third Squadion of ships going to the assistance of the Venetians , is ready to set forth to Sea , with the rest of the supplies prepared for them , being of seven or eight hundred men . The Duke of Merco●ur hath sent a Gentleman in the Kings name to Tunis , to demand the liberty of the French slaves there . He took occasion for that , of favourable conjuncture of our Ships upon the Mediterranean , who do much alarum the said Tunis , and it is thought that consideration will induce those Infidels to release them sooner then otherwise they would have done . Thursday , Iune 14 at the House of Lords . The House this day read several private Petitions , and referred them to a Committee : They had likewise under their consideration several things belonging to his Majestie Revenue .

The substance of the Speech was to acquaint his Majesty how highly pleasing to the Vniversity his returne to his Kingdom was , and that that Vniversity having for so long time been honored with his Majesties presence , they could not but be more acquainted with his Princely vertues and so be more deeply sensible of their and the whole Kingdoms sufferings in his so long absence .
