The Publick is ignorant of the Contents of the Letters he has brought, the Chevalier having divulged them to none but the Pope, at a private Audience, to which the Cardinal Secretary-of-State alone was admitted. Several Irishmen and Scotchmen, Partisans of the Stuart Family, have since repaired to the Chevalier's Palace, to enquire about Prince Edward, but we can't hear that any satisfactory or clear Account has been given them
