The New Hampshire Gazette

By advices from Paris, we are assured, that the merchants, of the most considerable trading places throughout that kingdom, have drawn up petitions (many of which have been already delivered into the French king's own hand) praying that a PEACE may be concluded with the ENGLISH, even if it be on their own terms; and it is said very favourable answers have been given to several of the principal merchants.

The same letters add, that the populace had rose at Paris; that it was with the greatest difficulty those tumults were quelled; and that it had not been effected had not some of the chief officers interfered. & assured the outrageous rabble, that a peace would soon be brought about with the English; after which, they began to disperse; but don't seem quite satisfied, as they appear every day in scattered parties.
