Mr. England, aid de camp to the earl of Peterborough, is arrived here in 21 days from Barcelona, who says, that count Tholouze has but 25 men of war before that citty, and 15,000 land men; that they had made 3 attacks on fort Montjouy, and 4 on fort Angelo, but repulsed with great losse.
That the lord Peterborough, with a strong body of horse and the prince of Hesse, were on their march to raise the seige, and that sir John Leake was seen beyond Malaga: ’tis said count Tholouze has weighed anchor, but whither to fight sir John or retire, is not known.
