This Week the Commissioner of the Princes and States of the Empire have held an
extraordinary Assembly about that which yet remains of a full. Execution of the Peace
of Germany, reduced all unto fourteen Points; the which (with the means by them devised
for a speedy Redresse of all disorders) being put into from; certain Commissioners
of the Protestant Princes and States, were nominated deliberate upon them, as
they did yesterday, for the fist time, within our Town-house. The same commissioner
have also sent their Answer to the Prince Palatine of Swethland, concerning the
Restitution of Frankendale; to this effect: viz. that there appearing, for the present
no gentle means to get it back again; and it being not be siegeable without most certain
Breach of the generall Peace, they be feech him to finde out some Qualification, or to
accept of other Towns in th' hereditary Countreys of th' Emperour (who upon those
terms will most willingly part with them) and to prevail with the Alleys of the Crown of
sweden, to condiscend unto it, that th' Execution of the said Peace may not be retarded
by occasion of this only Variance; and that th' Empire almost ruined by these Wars,
may be in some sort recovered: Not doubting, but that, in time not only Frankendale,
but also Hombourg, Landshutt: and Harmmersticin will be restored: upon all which they
attended the Resolution of that Generalissimo.
