RIOTOUS PROCV,EDINGS OF THE liE-
FOBi AT PAISLEY.

THE MILITARY COMPELLED TO CHARGE.

[FURTHER PARTICULARS.]
Paisley, Sept. 13, Half-past Twelve, Night.
As was anticipated from the outrages of yester-
day, nod the temper of the mob who hat'l been
loud in their threats of violence, there has been
this day a renewal of riots. The mob began to
assemble early in the morning ; and until their
numbers increased, nothing more offensive than
hissing at respectable persons was offered. About
eleven o'clock, forenoon, the mob commenced by
14 most unprovoked and cowardly attack upon
private Gentleman, who had, on the previous
nights, acted as a Special Constable. He had
accompanied a Lady through the crowd, and,
after seeing her home, he was on his return assail-
ed by a shower of stones, many of which struck
him. He was robbed of his hat, and with great
difficulty reached the Tontine lon, where he took
refuge. Soon after the Radicals proceeded to
demolish windows, and when great numbers had
assembled at the Market-place, thirty or forty
boys came towards the Council Chamber, carry-
ing large stakes pulled from fences, and which, no
doubt, were intended for the use of Hotels more
advanced in years. The Magistrecy and Con-
stables succeeded, however, in preventing the
transfer of these weapons to the• hands which
were destined to wield- them, by a sudden though
hazardous approach) towards the !loth, and the
greatest number of 'the stakes were throw() down,
and taken possession of by the .Pohee Officers.
This, diseppeintment rendered it neetessai y for
the mob to have recourse to their old weapons,
stones and brick-bats, and these were soon
poured in great profusion at the Magistracy,
and Peace Officers. The Riot Act was read, and
the cavalry were paraded at the Cross. Printed
placards were then carrircl in front of the mob,
intimating that the Riot Act had been read, and
a man, who was carrying one of these humaee
notifications, was knocked down,. and -the paper
torn front the board. During an interval of more
titan three hours, every effort was made to prevail
on the crowd to di,perse but they remained ob-
vitiate. At length it became absolutely neces-
sary to call the military hoc) action, but this was
done with the utmost mildness, and if these scenes
are again repeated, no such forbearance will be
instifi ihle. A party of the cavalry, supported by
a detachment of rite SOth Regiment, and preceded
by a strong body of Teciel constables, headed by
the Magistracy, advanced towards the mob in
Moss-street. Solemn warning was given "them to
disperse, and the answer was a shower of i4ones
from the mob. The cavalry were then advanced.
and ordered to charge, and tliecomtables and in-
fantry followed. After this, the cavalry scoured
the streets, and patroles of military and spe-
cial constables have been visiting all quarters of
the town up to this hour. Traoquillity appears
once more to be restored. In the course of the
evening-, a number of the rioters have been taken
up, ,ome of them charged with the capital crime
of reouiimilig titi:1•41;u011Sly assfembied and assault-
ing the Civil authorities after the eatp;ey of the
period limited by tire Kiot A,:t. The prison is so
el omit: fl it: cen,,tqaenee of the commitments, !bat
it tea,. found fleet:B3aq to send off five of the pH-
soneis to tireettoek. We beliete it is determined
to bring the whole of the lioturs who have been
seized to trial, and it will be indispensably ne-
cessary that an awful example be made of those
guilty, The opeui defiance of the law, and the
dreadful state of alarm into which a populous
town is thrown by such a mob, requires exem-
plary retribution.
The patroles were often assailed with stones
from closes, and in two instances were fired
upon by some of the mob, who' were armed
with pistols, awl 'bath secreted themselves in the
dark. The cavalry • and constables, in one of
their rounds, found large pieces of wood placed
across the street for-the purpose, . no doubt, of
bringing down the horses.
A considerable number of the Lieutenancy of
the County have been in attendance all day.
" Paisley, Sept. 14.
" I reached Paisley yesterday, at or bear twelve
noon ; on toy getting to the
.Hi,-,b-street, I ob-
served some people gathering together, consist-
ing of about 30 or 40, and before twenty minutes
past two r M. it was supposed there were not
less. that 20,000 marching through the streets.
The windows of twelve diff,rent houses, were en-
tirely broke out ; not a pane of glass could I see
in either of them. 'the houses beloegiug to the
two Clergymen, the Rev. Messrs. Finlay and
Burns, were iu the same state.
A Gentleman who lett Paisley on Tuesday
moroiog at half past nine o'clock, states, that
" Paisley was then tranquil, but large parties
were assembler) at the corner of the Streets, and
no appearance of going to work."

••
A public meeting of the Radical Reformers was
bat at Meikletil.;gs Muir, about two miles front
Paisley, on Saturday last, and we are sos ry to oh.
serve that ail the Constlltued Authorities—the
Sheriffs, the Magistrates, and the Special Con-
stahles—were grossly insulted, assailed with
stones, brick-bats, &e. and several of them se-
verely hurt.' .windows of the Council Cham-
ber, Court-house, Police-office, &c. were broken
with stores. Abont ten o'clock at night the Riot
Act was read, and ,to express sent tp Glasgow
for a detachment of Hussars. When the Ilitssars
were parading in 'fumigate here, in order to go
to Parsley, a villain threw a stone, which severely
hurt one of the men. Before the arrival of the
Ifiissars at Pakley, the mob had nearly dis-
persed, and by three o'clock on Sunday morning
the streets Lvere cleared by the Special Consta-
bles ; the' Hussars then returned to town. A gen-
tleman, a Mr. Burns, was knocked down, and
robbed of a gold watch. On Sunday, the scene
rat -rico and disturbance was tenewed. The Ma-
gtf-sr.:; ,11(1 every respectable person were hizised
at rtci insulted when going to church. Towards
eeener;g, _the Sheriff- Clerk IY:pute was. knocked
down, kic;:ed, and left insensible ; many respect-
ab,e intividuals were maltreated and wounded;
the witiAows of the Magistracy, Special Consta-
bles, au(' Clergy, broken; the windows of the.i

Coffcp-room and l'*dice office, and almost all the
street lamps, demiished. The Riot Act was
again read, and the military called out. The
`town was t;nce more restored to quietness about
two o'clock in the morning.
Vests's-thy. so early as eleven o'clock, the mob
com:acnced tbrir outrages, by attacking a Gen-
tleman who had ac_t,d as a special
"constable the
previous nights; alter heiug assanl:e tt jib stones,
lie escaped with difficul,y to the Tontine Inn.
Soon after, the Ita,ficals proceeded to denfolish
tt indows.; about 30 or 40 boys brought latge
stakes, nulled fioni fences, towards the Council
Chamber j the 11,11gisiraces and Special Constables
approached the mob, and the stakes were soon in
possessi,n ot tie police officers ; the mob had then
recourse to stones Red brick-bats ; the Riot Act
was read, and the cavaliv, aided by a detachment
of the-80th Itefziment, preceded by the Magistrates
and a sttong body of 'zioeeial Constables, advanced
towards them ; warning was given to disperse,
which was answered by a shower of stones ; the
cavalry char:zed, followed by the infantry and
constables. The mob Ma 3 then dispersed ;,the pa-
troles who went through the different streets dur-
ing the night, were often assailed tvitli stones from
closes, and in two instances were fired upon with
pistols. All was apparently quiet before mid-
night.

Last night a considerable number of villains who
had collected in the Green, with -a view of joining
the rioters at Paisley, returned to this city about
seven o'clock, abet having been three miles out
Of to►ta, and were joined at the New Bridge by
a crowd of °theta, perhaps in all about 3000, who
paraded the streets, for some time, to the great
annoyance of the peaceable inhabitants. h being
represented to the Lord Provost and Magistrates,
that a riot would take place in consequence of the
cavalry being sent to Paisley, two troops were
brought front Hamilton, and the Magistrates
were •on the alert to preserve the public peace.
At halt-past seven o'clock, information was re-
ceived. that great crowds were assembling at the
Old and New Bridges, and that lamps, win-
dows, &c. were broken on the opposi!e side of
the Clyde. Parties of the Magistrates went out
to see the state of things, and on their return it
was judged proper to go to the Black Bull inn, in
order to observe more distinctly what was going
on. Two troops of the 7th Hussars, the Solli
Regiment, and the Horse Artillery, were ordertu!
out. About nine o'clock, by order of the 1...,:;rd
Provost, the Riot Act was read by Baillie Alston.
In a short time the cavalry assemhkd at the
Black Bull Lin, waiting for orders. During that
period, showers of stones were thrown at the
Magistrates, ivhich obliged them to take.t.helter
in the lobby of the Inn. Every thing was done
to persuade the mob to 'disperse, but to little
eff et, When nothing else could be done, the ca-
valry were ordered to clear the'streets, which they
did with the greatest promptitude, and very few
instances occurred a here any hurt was sustained,
and these were front obstinacy or accidents front
the darkness orcasioued by the lamps being bro-
ken. Almost all the lamps in the Gallowgate, Salt-
market, Kent and Great Hamilton Streets, on the
Bridges, anti in front of the houses on' both sides
of the Clyde, were broken ; and considerable in-
-jury was done to several shops in town, Calton,
as Greeohead, and l'radestown. About 100 per-
sons were apprehended and sent to the Police
Office, sixty 14 whom were afterwards discharged;
and this morning the Magistrates -and official per-
sons are engaged in further investigation.

We have just no..v learned tl►at 220 public
lamps were lust night ►lestroye►l by the rioters,
besides a number of private lamps.

(MORE PARTJCULARS•)

s Mr. Taylor was chosen Preses, and began the
business of the meeting, by enjoining attention
and good order. He then stated that the Re-
fOrmers had no wish for disturbance and revolu-
tion, as. was falsely asserted by their enemies ;
they merely wished a►► end put to all unnecessary
places, pensions, and sinecures, and a proper
share in the legislature of their country.
A number of Resolutions, deprecating the con-
duct of the Manchester Magistrates, were signed ;
votes of thanks %versa given to the most illustrious
Radicals. J. Peacock, Esq. was thanked with
great applause, for allowing the Meeting to be held
on the Muir, and his portrait is to be painted by
the band of a celebrated Radical Reformer, and
presented to him.
One resolution merits particular notice—" That,
as the contest between the Boroughmongers and
the People is of vital importance, hence it becomes
indispensably necessary that the people use every
method in their power to cut off the resources of
those relentless tyrants, whereby they snay be ex-
pelled from their usurped authority, and the people
regain their legitimate rights. That, as glancing
at the vast revenue which the Borougbinongers
derive from tea, tobacco, pnd spirituous liquors,
uonceive it s.. be yart .Jury d 43 ii*Otn
use of those articles ourselves, until a Radical
Reform in the Common's House of Parliament be
obtained. And we hereby strongly recommend
to all Reformers to adopt, as-tar as possible, the
same measures. That Major Cartwright, Mr.
Hunt, Sir Francis Burden, Sir Charles .\Volselev, '
Mr. Wooler, arid other friends of Reform in
London, be respectfully invited to name a day
for a General Meeting of Reformers through-
out the whole Kingdom, in order that the above
Resolution be adopted and carried into effect,
whereby it will become a truly national measure."
An Address to Mr. Hunt was produced and read.
Hunt was panegyrized at great length, and the
Address was carried with a fervent shout of ap-
plause. After a speaker from the east side of
Glasgow bad spent souse tune in making severe
strictures upon the duplicity and unfeeling; con-
duct of the Clergy, the business of the Meeting
ended with the Preses requiring the people to
depatt with regularity -and good order, and go
peaceably home. About the middle of the pro-;
ceedings, a cry of " Hussars" rose, and the peo-
ple fled on all sides, and it. was with some diffi-
culty the Committee could get them rallied, and
order restored. A collection was made, when
the people were reining, for the relief of the
Manchester sufferers. Some light-fingered gen-
try honoured. the meeting with their presence..l
