They sent to the City to call a Common Hall the * 1.1 4th of March, That the Commissioners for the Treaty at Uxbridge, might then acquaint the City with the proceedings at that Treaty, and the aversness of the King's party to the peace. They have already set forth a Declaration at Oxford, for the vindication of themselves in that business.

An Ordinance for Provisions for the Parliaments Forces before Pomfret, another for the Essex Forces.

Letters from Colonel Sydenham, and Captain Batten, informed, that Goring had spent much time with 5000 horse and foot, before Melcombe, but had made no honourable attempt, only the night be∣fore endeavoured to cast up a Work before Mel∣combe, betwixt it and the Seas; but Sydenham sent out a party, who beat them from their Work, kil∣led two, and took divers prisoners, and all their Tools, without any loss.

3. The Commons past the List of Officers for the new Army.

4. The French Agent sent a Letter to the Parlia∣ment, of the desires of his Master and the Queen Regent, That the Parliament would continue the Treaty with the King. The House ordered a Com∣mittee to draw up a fair and respective Answer to the Letter, but not to consent to any thing of re∣newing the Treaty.

The Speaker was authorized to give Passes to Delinquents to come into the Parliament, and to compound at Goldsmiths-hall for their Delin∣quency.

The Parliaments Forces in Melcombe, Febr. 25. having regained Chapel Fort, of great prejudice * 1.2 to the King's Forces, they resolved by a Council of War, to fall again upon the Fort, and upon the Town of Melcombe at once in several places.

The same Evening that they resolved to do it, one of Melcombe Souldiers who had been taken pri∣soner, escaped, and gave notice to the Governour of this Design, who got his men in readiness.

The King's men that night assaulted the Line about Melcombe in five or six places, and the Cha∣pel, with great resolution; but were in every place repulsed, and lost about 150 of their men. In which Service, Captain Batten and his Seamen did very bravely: the Enemy retreated back to Weymouth, the Melcombe Souldiers stood still upon their guards, expecting the return of the Enemy, but they came not again.

But the next morning they all drew out of Wey∣mouth in hast, as in a Pannick fear, and marched away both horse and foot to Dorchester, leaving behind the Ordnance they had before taken from the Parliament in Weymouth, and two pieces more, with some Arms; and took nothing with them but some Plunder, and the Parliament Forces posles∣sed all the Forts, and lost but ten men.

The Parliaments Commissioners for the Treaty at Ʋxbridge, came to the Common-hall in London, and acquainted the City with the proceedings of that * 1.4 Treaty, and of the aversness on the King's side to come to a closure of peace; so that now it was of necessity for their own defence to furnish out the Army under Sir Thomas Fairfax; for which end they desired from the City the Loan of 80000 l. to be repaid with Interest.

Upon Information, that the mutinous horse in∣clined * 1.5 to obedience, the Parliament past an Order, that if they submitted by a day, they should be par∣doned, and continued in Service, otherwise to be proceeded against as Traytors.

5. Orders touching Money from the Customs and Excise.

But they did engage, and Langdale's Horse were beaten back to the last reserve; in which Encoun∣ter, Colonel Lambert and other Commanders re∣ceived some slight hurts, the Parliaments Foot there, being deserted by others who did not their parts, and galled by the Garrison Souldiers, who sallied out of Pomfret, were forced to retreat, with the loss of many Arms, an Iron piece of Ordnance, two Carriages, and some of their fellows.

The rest of their Carriages they drew off, over Ferrey-bridge, almost a mile from the fight; which pass was made good by Colonel Morgan and his * 1.11 Dragoons, against Langdale's men.

The same night when this fight was, a party of the Yorkshire Forces fell upon a party of the King's at Houghton, and took 100 Horse and divers pri∣soners.
