The English Ambassador [Throckmorton] departed from Paris under pretence of going to the Court, and went by a road not far distant from Orleans, at which place his baggage was detained by those who issued out of the city; wherefore it appears that his Lordship, in order to recover it, went into Orleans to demand it from the Prince; but although twelve days have passed since this happened, the Ambassador has not yet quitted Orleans.

This morning I have had letters from Flanders of the 22nd instant, by which I am advised that the English were crossing over to Normandy; and also this morning the brother of the Marshal de Brissac has told me that, by a man of his who left that coast two days ago, he has advice that three thousand English had already embarked for their passage hither, and that other three thousand had made their muster for the same purpose.
