DISTRESSING AFFAIR at GREENOCK. E From Ths Glasgow Herald of Monday, April 10 ) " Perhaps there is not a more loyal limn its. Britain than Greenock; and on well establodietl is this character, that very seldom are any military quartered there. Warn with the utmost asttntali... meal, therefore, that yesterday morning we reache d the accounts that a mob in Greenock had amide vrantnn attack ttpim the' Port Glasgow volarifeeio, .aid afterwards broke the gaol, and liberated mime Radical prisoners. The fatal consequences of this attack have been the death of mine men by the fire of the volunteers, and fifteen wounded. The particulars are amply detailed in the following letters received in Glattow last night mud this morning. These letters all .gree in representing that the outrage did not originate in polities% feel ing, in so far at least as respected the inhabitants of Greenock. " We have got uo account of this business from Port Glasgow. but we have heard that the volun teers acted with the greatest forbearance so long as the 'treatment they met with was endurable, and that the (Avers were all in the rear of the party, endeavouring by every means in their power to wake the 'nub desist. " GREENOCK, SUNDAY MORNING, Eight o'Clock. •' I wrote you a rcyburried - lities last night, men tioning the dreadful riot which occurred here yes terday afternoon. 1.0)41 now endeavour to give a more particular account of it. A rumour had gone j broad in the mottling that a putty of Radical prisoners were to lie brought to our prison in the vouttie of the afternoon, and about four o'clock rowds begins to collect in the streets leading to wards Itridewell. " About five o'clock the Prisoners arrived, es corted by the Port Glasgow volunteers, with a drum and fife playing. 1 saw them pass, slid every per son appeared quiet, and merely collected from curiosity ; however, after safely lodging their pri mmer', the volunteers prepared to move homewards, , elien the crowd began to press hard upon them, laughing and hissing. Mr. Deuniston. the Magis trate, went down the street endeavouring to preserve order, but without avail. Ou getting to the Tontine they began throwing stones, and on their reaching Rue-end, after several of the volunteers had been hurt s .o few shot. were fired, which only increased the fay of the mob; they were then obliged to fire in good earnest, and a running fire was kept until they got fairly out of Csrtsdyke. 1 mentioned in inypst that a slumber of the wounded had been sent to the hospital, of these four are since thud, and two mortally wounded ; the others were all severely and dangerously wounded; mid from all the accounts I have been able to col lect, I think the killed and wounded amount to about twenty. I hear there are five dead in town, besides the four iu the hospital. The crowd tore down the iron railings in front of some of the louses for the weapons ; and an immense number :awed in this way, as also with swords and guns, preceded by a piper, set off to attack Port fiias gow ; lint after reaching Mr. Gemmill's gate. they returned, having learnt that an express I. id been sent to Port Glasgow to put them on their guard. In the course of the night detach ments of hussars and infantry arrived ; by which time, however, the streets were quite clear; and although they are now crowded, every thing appears pe, frilly quiet, and 1 trust it is all over. I forgot to titeotom, that the mob broke open the prison. and liberated the Radical prisoners, but no others." •NOTIIIIII LETTER. " GREENOCK, APRIL 9, 1820. • U You will no doubt this morning have ht•ard of the unfortunate outrage in this town yesterday af ternoon and last night, and that too perhaps much exag4erated ; I therefore write this to give you the particulars as correctly as I can collect. Yesterday, 'siren the mail-coach cattle in, the guard reported that t 6 Radicals were to be sent here from Paisley, trader an escort of the Port Glasgow volunteers, to he lodged in our gaol, and that they would pro bably arrive about four to five o'clock. There not heirg any armed fo►ce in town, and kriowitig the disnlfected disposition of tunny of the lower creases, and a great many persons appearing in the streets, apparently strangers, caused an apprehension amongst many of us that there might be some dis turbance should the prisoners come. The Magis trates were applied to on the subject, who replied that it could not be true, otherwise they would have intimation from the authorities in Paisley to pru•.irte accommodation for them, and be pre pared to receive them ; that not being the case, , they did not believe the account, especially as at different times of late they had the same rumour*, which turned out to be unfounded. They, therefore, thought no moreabout the matter, and all went home to dinner at the usual hour of tour o'clock. Before five o'clock the Port Glas gow volunteers entered the town with drums and fifes, escorting a cart with five Radicals in it, who were immediately lodged in gaol. The sound of the drums and fifes naturally drew toge ther a large concourse in the streets. Mr. Dennis ton, one of the Magistrates, happened to come by chance into the square, and went to the gaol, when some persons (sold to be strangers) threw itorne stories at the volunteers, who fired two shots in the a:r with intention of iotimidation; this, however, had }he contrary effect, and co Mr. Deoniorou re. wonstrating with the crowd, he was i ns .ri ct i, an d with difficulty rescued from amongst them. The volunteers theft marched off, and gut the length of Rae-erid s when the mob began pelting them with . %tulle., by which several were severely cut. Thus roi.milerl a file of them faced round and fired gst the crowd, when several people fell. This, i3i,tead of repelling the multitude, exasperated them inure. They continued attacking the volunteers, oust the volunteers continued firing in their own defense. till they got through Curt's-dyke, by which firing Milli resistance a ~umber of people were killed and wounded. By this time the Jus. ta..l. of the Peace, stud others of the respectable in. liabitents. came t•. the spot, and used every means to apprise the fury of the mob, and they became quiet for h. little. The special constables (the only defence we have in the plat) were ordered to assemble at seven u'cl.,..k. bat the people getting from their work, rod infuriated with the accounts if so minty peo. '~~r~r .... ~ . •I•" . • . -.r ... ii ple tilled and wounded; essenahkd in a large body, aud• began an attack on the gaol; the MP' gistrates and justices of the 'Peace got, into the yard ; nod defended it as lung as they could, but it getting ter dark, and assailed with - artivrerii of stoner,- Li retire; and the mob succeeded in breaking open the gaol and rescued the five Radicals. but not any of the ether 'Fhey-Fatit beir o'clock the town was as-quiet as river I saw it. "At far as can he ascertained there see Moe people 4d ed and fifteen Wounded, se'rerol of whom can't rtev vet. About 11 . 111 o'clock an expresi was sent toff to Paisley and Glasgow for some military, and by one o'clock this toorniug a troop of isomers arrived, and about nine o'clock some riflemen and other soldier, by steam-boats front Glasgow ; bat since last night the town is as quiet as usual, and I hope will continue so. No blame whatever is attached to our Magistrates, who did every thing iu their power to preserve the peace. For a con iidcruble time the alarm was great, feariag they might attack private property, but no such thing was attempted, not even a pane of glass broke, ~or was any iusult offered to any of the inhabitants." •NOTHEU. LETTER. S• GILLR/1001. APRIL g. " On account of the crowded state of Paisley gaol, in consequence of the numerous appreheu slops occasioned by the recent disturbances there, it was considered proper to send door five of the ifrisosiers to Greenock, and yesterday afternoon they arrived here escorted by the Port Giese* volunteers, and were safely lodged in prison, im mediately after which the escort prepared to re. turn homeward.. A considerable crowd had col. Ircted to witness the arrival of the prisoners, but 110 disposition was 'hewn to awnoy the military in the execution of their duty till they were about to return, when some stones were wantonly thrown among them ; this annoyence rather increased as the volunteers repassed through the town, and after turning the corner of Cathcart. street, the latter fired some of their pieces, in order to intimidate the assailants, whets too piere sons were wounded. It appears, that instead of diminishing, the attacks of the crowd were there by increased, till at length a sort of running fight ensued, which unfortunately continued until the volunteers were almost clear of the suburbs of the town. In the encounter three persons were killed on the spot, and upward. of 18 badly wounded, of whom six have since died in the infirmary, win. ther nearly the whole of the wounded h.►d been carried, tinder the directions of the medical gen limn' of the town, who came most promptly t• the spot, and were unremittingly active in render ing their professional assistance. Many of the vo. lunteers, it is understood, were materially hurt in the affray. " Later its the evening a crowd again collected at the square, and there being no military stationed here to restrain them, urged on by a number of fellows who were at renger. to the towm commenced an attack on the outer gate of the gaol, which they broke open in spite of the earumt l'inonstrancea of five Magistrates, and many of the most respects able inhabitants, to desist from. their unlawful en terprise. They then proceeded to force the limit door of the gaol. in wltiCh they were equally sues Cetera% Mid libeinted the five men brought dorsi from l'aii , iey; who immediately escaped., NI other prisoners were suffered to Truman. After ►his the tumult gradually subsided, and at ten o'clock hurl totally ceased ; nor hey tbit' tranquillity of the town been since interrupted: Early this morning detachments of troops arrived from Paisley and Clasen. " It may not be superfluous to mention, that the crowd, in assailing the military, were most probably excited by the ratoloin impulses of the moment. Nothing of the kind was anticipated preetuas to the arrival of the latter." " Lord Elgin's troop of Mid-Lothian cavalry, ac companied by Sir John Hope, the Commandant of the corps, marched in here on Saturday in the high est style of tltninnent, and we observed none more loud in their praise than the gentlemen of our own troop of light horse." " M LTO N, APKIL S. " This town has been placed in a state of alarm and anxiety during the whole of this week, in con. sequence of the arrival of different corps of yeo manry cavalry, and the constant patroles which traversed the streets daring the nights, and this anxiety wan more strongly excited in consequence of there being no avowed or evident cause fur such precautionary measures. other than what arose from a placard which had been posted in se veral p.irts of the town last Sunday morning. On Friday our streets exhibited a scene of adorns, anxiety, and confusion, which stand* without a pa. rallel in its entails: detachments of littnars•mid yeo manry succeeded each other with rapidity through the unreels, accompanied by infantry; 611 the Atom* leading to the town were soon completely blockaded, so as to present the possibility of either ingress or egress. A search then commenced fur anus in the mast suspicious depertmeuts, when. to the infinite credit of the inhabitants, not a - weapon of a dan gerous nature was discovered, except such as are to be hound generally throughout the country in the most peaceable times. We rejoice to say tine utmost tranquillity prevails, and that the operatives of every kind have resumed their former wise and industrious habits. Yesterday, 11 prisoners were brought here from Strathaven under a military es cort ; they still remain iu custody at the Barnacles, used reported they will be sent off far libbis. burgh Castle this day."

The hope we expressed yesterday that the ac count which we then published of the unhappy occurrences at Greenock, on Saturday, the Bth instant, might prove unfounded, or at least much exaggerated, has not been realised. Nine of the populace, we lament to say, lost their lives on that melancholy occasion, sod the wounded, so far es they have been as yet ascertained, amount to - ten or twelve. Greenock is said to have hitherto en joyed in excellent a reputation for the goad con duct of its inhabitant+, and their ready obedience to the laws, that it has not been thought necessary to quarter troops in the town, and consequently the guard of the prison and the tranquillity of the place have been intrusted exclusively to the civil power. The expectation of seeing some state prisoners brought into the town under military escort, naturally collected a great crowd in the streets, but no apprehension seemed to have been en tertaitsed by the Magistrates that this circumstance would lead to any unpleajaat consequences. When the five Radicals entered the town in a cart, under the escort of it detachment of the Port Glasgow volunteers, no other feeling appeared to have been excited among the crowd than curiosity, end in deed the strength of the detachment, being about eighty men, might reasonably be expected to deter the populace from manifesting any hostile disposi tion. This principle of prudence, however, did not continue to infioence the people, for no sootier were the prisoners lodged in the gaol than the' populace pressed round the voluineers, 'lining and hooting, and ut length began to throw brick bats ■nd stones at them; the troops for some time endured this treatment with exemplary patience, but the populace continuing to enclose thews, they felt the necessity of adopting decisive immures, and a few shots were fired far the purpose of M. tinshleting their penectriors. The crowd, how• ever, were not to be thus deterred, and as Ahoy persevered in their•outrages spinet the troop,: if* latter were finally compelled to fire with ball air. bridges upon the •people. The tiring was continued wail the Manteca evseissted the town. snd• the consequences were such as we have stated. Tice ~ a • , - ' town brio' thee leftleibill Military protection. the popolace. in revenge for their loam. attacked the civil power, which they defeated, and opening the prison doors, liberated the fire Radicals who leery, but, strange to tell ! did not permit the other prisoners confined in the same gaol to escape. So far as the accounts hitherto received enable us to judge of this lair, the conduct of the troops see►ni to h■re been, if not highly meritorious, at least lice from the remotest pouibility of censure. They were assailed in the discharge of no very pleasing duty by a violent and outrageous mob, and seem not to bare attempted even to defend themselves until the moment when further forbear ance on their parts must have endangered their own safety. The numbers of the killed and wounded, although much to be lamented, must be attributed solely to the uncommon perseverance and firmness of the popolice„ who, unlike other crowds in simi lar circumstances, were not dispersed by the fire of a few muskets, but continued, notwithstanding a running fire kept up by the retreating party, to press upon the volunteers and assail them with mit* riles until the detachment had effectually retreated from the town. Pity it is that so much heroism had not teen employed in a better cause ; but who can refuse a word of praise to valour under what ever circumstances exerted But to the people of Greenock some commendation is undoubtedly due for the temper and forbearance which they display ed in the enjoyment of their victory. The Magi*. trate, and special constables were completely over come, yet the populace, enraged though they must have been by the occurrences ofthe day, and inflam ed as they might naturally he supposed to have been by the attack upon the goal, yet made no other use of their triumph than to liberate the five Radicals, and instead of turning to pillage, and indulging in any other excess, they quickly retired to their respective homer, and in a very short space of time the town was restored to its wonted tranquillity. A Hamburgh Mail has arrived, bringing papers from various parts of the Continent. The General Assembly of the States of the Kingdom of Hano ver, having completed the business of the Session, was prorogued on the 4th of April. The plague hut ceased in Wallachia and Moldavia. An article from Dresden communicates the atro cious marder of " the distinguished painter and excellent man, Professor KnaaLnau." On the 27th nit. he went out, with the intention of visiting his vineyard in the neighbourhood of Loschwitz, and at five the following morning his body was found by some domestics of the family; stripped almost to nudity, with many wounds in the head. Suspicion has fallen upon the workmen employed at the vineyard, two of whom have been taken into custody, but nothing had transpired to confirm the conjecture of their guilt. The Ktxo, whose particular esteem the deceased enjoyed, has offered a reward, from his private purse, of 1,000 dollars for the discovery of the murderers. Paris Papers of Monday last have arrived. The King of SPAIN, for the purpose of inopiring the Constitutionalists with confidence in his sincerity, and of terminating every partial opposition to the new order of affairs, has issued a decree, declaring that all who shall refuse to swear the Constitu tion sincerely, and without reservation, shall be deemed unworthy the name of Spaniards, be divested of all honours, rights, and privileges, and be rendered incapable of residing within the territories of Spain. By another decree, the red venues of the vacant commanderies, and of such as shall become vacant, are wisely appro priated towards the diminution of the public debt. Perfect tranquillity reigns in every part of Spain. The militia regiments that were sup posed to be in the interest of the Crown ex clusively, have been disbanded, and the marine forces at Cadiz vie with the regular troops all over the kingdom in their attachment to the Constitution. The twentieth conference of the German Mi. nisters assembled'in Congress at Vienna, has been held, and in it are said to have been determined all the points of general interest for which the Con gress had been convened. The result of the de. liberations will be published about the end of April. One of the Paris Papers speaks of an important diplomatic note from Russia., in which that power is made to declare, that it will consider as an act hostility towards itself, any violeuce offered by an armed force to any one of the legitimate Go. vertitnents which are nsittually gwaratiterd by the Holy Alliauce.

Letters received yesterday front Portugal state positively, that the most perfect tranquillity .utsi fortnly prevails in that country, and that no part is there taken in the agitations that disturb Spain. A letter front Bourdeaux states, that on the 15th of March, at seven o'clock in the evening, a great meteoric light was seen in the horizon to the west of that city. The light extended and augmented; its Isrightnesa in proportion as the darkness of the evening increased, and it soon became so brilliant ea to present the appearance of a g t It . - - oc cupied a apace of forty send was at least twenty degrees in height 4 ,. t. the clouds which covered a part of the horiinin prevented the spectators from observing from what point it arose. The light finally diminished by slow degrees, in the direction of south-east ; at nine o'clock it dis appeared, being then due south. This fact merits the attention of astronomers.
