Artillery proceeded to the Woolwich long range,
from Loudon, and went through a course of target
practice, when one of the privates namod M'Dougall
met with a severe accident, which ultimately proved

promptly amputated on the spot by Dr. Rice, stir•

announced by
the garrison authorities of Woolwich
,
