" WOERDEN, NOVEMBER 30.
Ig Wednesday the 24th inst. was certainly the most
dreadful day ever known in this town, and which
has been productive of general sorrow and extreme
tnisery. On the lACceding evening, about 250 men.
of the national guards from the Hague, with two
pieces of cannon, appeared before this town, and de-
manded of the French Commanci.int, who had pos-
session of it with about 23 men of his own nation, to
surrender it. This was complied with, and on the
same evening the town received its new garrison. On
the following murning, being the 24th of November,
this tew garrison was unexpectedly surprised by
leery numerous body of French troops from ljtiecht,
provided with some pieces of artillery, and after a
smart skirmish, in which some men fell on both sides,
taken by storm.
4. Now cbmraenced the dreadful plundering, devas-
tation, and Inhuman murders. Titehouses which could
not be opened on account al the doors and windows
having been fastened, were beaten open by artillery ;
cabinets, chests, and boxes were cut and broken open ;
the ready money, uncoined gold and silver, jewels,
linen, and clothing, stolen ; valuable papers destroy-
ed ; classes, china, and other earthenware, broken
and thrown into the streets ; the poorinhabitants,'
already frightened almost to death, and begging for.
their lives, were forced to discover where they had
secreted their other valuables. Death and destruc-
tion had at length penettatod into'-every habitation :

Of the best mothers, of grey-haired ancients, of ten-
der infants, stained the walls of their peaceful habits.
time, and streamed out of the houses along the streets.
d, Four-and-twenty inhabitants of this little tows
ihich had already suffered by the barbarians, were
:ruelly murdered, Without any reason given for such
proceedings. About fifty others were wounded, more
or less severely, several of whom must certainly die
of their wounds. Not even the ministers of any re-
' I%ion were spared, although they had fled to the
