A Little true forraine newes better than a great deale of domestick spurious false newes, published daily without feare or wit to the shame of the nation and beyond the liberty of Paris pasquils : vnto which is added a letter written by the lieutenant of the Tower to the Parliament in defence of himselfe and may give satisfaction to all men.

An extract of an other Letter sent from N. N. in Brazeil hearing date the 1. of November. 1641. to his friend dwelling in Rochel, in the Ship called the Burning of Troy, which by reason of the great winde was forced to run into the Texel, and arrived there the 2. of Ianuary, 1642.

COncerning the affairs of Brazeil, they go on very successefully: the 16. and 26. of August our Admirall Iol with 21. Ships and Pinnaces, and 3000. men hath taken the great and populous Citie of Loundo de S. Paulo in Angola, together with six Forts, seven Ravelins, two Batteries, fifty nine Brasse, and sixty nine Iron peeces of Ord∣nance, 13000. weight of Gun-powder, 300. weight of Match, 2200. Bullets, and obtained a good number of Negros, a good quantity of Merchant goods and victuals, the List whereof is expected, 30. Ships, amongst which are four great

ones, and 20. small vessels, some whereof were laden, from the said place, are yeerly sent away, and sold about 16000. Negros, by Gods assistance it will yeerly bring to the Company 60. or 70 Tuns of Gold, so that the Spaniards will be now wholly destitute of Negros in the West-Indies, &c.
