TOWN HALL, WINDSOR.

MONDAY.

THE LATE ELECTIONEERING RIOT.—At the conclusion of
the routine business before the sitting magistrates (Thomas
Clarke, Esq., mayor, and Robert Blunt, Esq.,), the following
conversation took place on the subject of the military dis-
turbance, which occurred in the town on Saturday evening,
between the bench and an elector of the borough.
Elector—May I ask, Mr. Mayor, if any attempts were
made, on the part of the police of the town, to take into cus-
.

tc.,dv any of the soldiers who were guilty of committing the
most flagrant assaults on the inhabitants on Saturday even-

Tile MAYOR—I believe not ; but I was not there.
Elector—Are you not aware whether the police were
ordered to act or not?

The MAYOR—As I was_ not :present: at the time, I really
cannot say.

Mr. Darvill (a member of the town council, who happened
to be present) observed, that if the soldiers had not been
there, there would have been no disturbance.
Mr. Blunt—lt is certainly a great pity the soldiers were
of barracks.

Elector—Do you intend, Mr. Mayor, as the chief magis-
trate, to forward any complaint to the Horse Guards on the
subject of the conduct of the soldiery ?
Mr. Blunt—l don't think, Mr. Mayor, you ought to an-
swer that question.
The MAYOR—If any complaint is made by the inhabitants
to the authorities, it will be attended to.
__

Mr. Blunt said the police acted very well in the business.
Mr. Darvill repeated if the soldiers had not been there, no
disturbance would have occurred. They ought to have been
kept in the barracks.
Mr. Blunt—We have nothing to do with that. (To the
elector)—Were you there ?
Elector—No, certainly not.
Mr. Blunt—Then you arenot competent to give an opinion.
Elector—l can only say, sir, that everybody who had a
regard for life and limb was glad to get home safe.
Mr. Blunt here remarked that he was present during same
part of the disturbance in High-street and Peascod-street,
and that he saw a soldier knock down a man near Mr.
Adam's, the butcher, near the market. Mr. Blunt further
observed that, seeing this occurrence, he went up to the sol-
dier, and said to him, "My good fellow, what are you doing?
You are doing great harm to the colonel's cause, I assure
you ; pray go home."
Elector—But did you not give him into custody?
Mr. Blunt—Oh, no ; I was surrounded by the limb.
Mr. Blunt then observed that he had been to the barracks
to intimate if the military were required they should be in
readiness.

The MAYOR, after observing that it had been rumoured
another row was expected to take place last night, and that
he had in consequence of the report remained in the town till
past ten o'clock, the conversation dropped.
