SERIOUS MILITARY RIOT AT WOOL-
. IV/CIL

WOOLWICH, THURSDAY, 9 P.M.
The town of Woolwich is at this period in a state
of considerable excitement, arising from a serious
disturbance which • has just taken place in the
High-street between a large number of the Antrim
Rifle Militiamen and the Royal Artillery and
Royal Marines. During the whole of the evening
the shops of the tradesmen in many of the principal
streets have been closed; and strong armed detach-
ments of the various corps in garrison are at this
moment parading the town, and numerous prisoners
have been conveyed to barracks. Amidst the ru-
mours which prevail it is difficult to obtain a truthful
detail of the consequences of the riot, but it is certain
that a number of the military have been wounded
and conveyed to hospital, and in more than one in-
stance dangerous bayonet or sword wounds have
been inflicted. It appears that during the present
week a very bad feeling has prevailed on the part
of the artillery and marines against the Antrim
Rifles. It is stated that on Wednesday evening an
artilleryman was . severely ill used by a party of
militiamen, and since that period something like an
organisation appears to have taken place by some
Artillerymen and Royal Marines, who threatened
to be revenged. About six o'clock this evening the
streets were more than usually thronged by sol-
diers ; and from the threats freely used it was
feared that a riot would take place. About seven
o'clock the militiamen, and artillerymen, and
marines, in considerable numbers met. in Hare-
street, and a fight took place. The numbers on
each side increased, arid the combatants assembled
in great force opposite the premises of Messrs.
Henderson, clothiers, ix the High-street, which are
being rebuilt, and near which was a stack of bricks,
with which the parties savagely attacked each
other, large sticks being also freely used in the
combat. Ultimately a strong picket arrived, but
they were unable to quell the I iot, and were them-
selves attacked, the result being that sword wounds
were inflicted. It is also stated that in several
instances soldiers of the picket had their arms taken
from them by the rioters. Immediately on the
news arriving at the garrison, strong pickets com-
manded by non-commissioned officers, were sent out
to secure those who were engaged in the riot ; and
about nine o'clock the disturbance was quelled ;
but the detachments are ordered to parade the town
during the night to preserve order. No damage
was done to the property of the inhabitants, with
exception of some public-houses, at which the
windows were broken and some other damage
occasioned.
