Reports are varyous whether Luxenb' have withdrawn and united his blockads or not, but some fanattickly talke that the prince of Br. was to blame that he did not pursue his advantage. Others judge he did enuff to gaine applause and interest amongst the people. Tis still stoutly affirmd that Hide is gon Over (and yt is true) with a prospect of peace ... with the Dutch and Spanyards and roome for the Jermans if they please ..."
