PAY ALLOWANCES, AND EQUIPML'NTS.
(CIItCtiI.AR) Wax-Orrice, May 12, 1820.
The Officers, Non.sontraissioned Officers, Drummers, and
Men; are to receive, during the period of training, the same r4-ts
of Regimental Pay and Allowances as the Militia recei,.ed v:l.i.e
they were last embodied.' The Officers will receive an ai1...v..-
ance for the carriage of their baggage, at the rate of nine-p.:: ce
per mile, from the place of their residence, if within the cot'
or If not within the county, then from that border of clinic o:sit
county which is nearest to the place where they m-y happen to
be when summoned to attend.
The Men will receive the usual Marching Allowance front the
places float which they shall proceed to join, provided such places
be nut more distant front the place of assembly than :he parishes
for which they are respectively enrolled: and the like allow-
lances will be made to the Officers and Men cn being dismissed.
Instructions will be given to the Paymaster as to the rates of
the said Pay and Allowances, and as to the triode of drawing
' for, and Issuing the Ante, but no Officer or Man will be cond. d
to pay for any period of absence, even though absent with leave,
sinless ha sha.:l have joined the Regim..nt during the period of
assembly.
The permanent Non-commissiored Officers and Drummers
are, of course, fully clothed and equipped for duty ; it is, there-
fore, only necessary to provide for the Equipment of the addi-
tional Noncommissioned Officers and Drummers, and of the
Private Men; and a sufficient quantity of the following articles,
namely, one coat, one waistcoat, one pair of grey trowsers, one
pair of short-grey gaiters, one pair of slices, one cap, one shirt,
one pair of short stockings, one stock and clasp, one turnscrew,
one worm, one picker, one brush, one knapsack, will be beat fur
this purpose from the public stores.
The small articles of necessaries, such as shoe-brushes, &e.
are to be provided out of the regulated stoppages from the pay
of the Men during the period of training, according to the Act
of the 42d Geo. 111. cap. 90. sec. 96.

The articles so provided out of the stoppages are to be taken
away by the Men on being dismissed; the other articles of
clothing and necessaries are to be lodged Carefully in the
regi-
mental stores for use on future occasions.

It is not thought necessary, at this season of the year, to fur-
nish great coats for the whole Corps, it being expected that those
now in the regimental store, or in wear by the permanent Non-
commissioned Officers and Drummers, will be sufficient for the
proportion of the Men on guard. -
As May net be in possession of the Pay and Clothing
Act for the Disembodied Militia for the current year, I inclobe
a printed copy thereof tqr your information. I have, &c.

MAAJOILOUGH4ITIUMM--Ittors.--Yesterclay, pats, ilackenere,
Thomas Dobbs, John Mildew, John Walling, John Clayton, 'lla-
mas Chandler, and Edward Sidney Augured (some of them very
decent young men), were brought up by Plank, Wales, Jefferits,
Valentine, and other Officers, charged with riot, ind making a
desperate attack upon the house of Lord Sidmonth, on Thurs-
day night last. The facts are briefly these:—On Thursday night
last, an extensive mob of persons left South Andley.street, and
on their road down Hill-street broke the windows dile
inha-
bitants, and, crying, " lights!" made a great riot. On arriving
in Berkeley-square, they demolished the whittle of the windows
on the west side. In Clifford-street they stopped opposite Lord
Sidmouth's residence, where a party bad been entertained. They
assailed the house with stones, mud, and other missiles, and com-
pletely, demolished the whole of the windows. The inmates
were naturally alarmed for their safety; and Lord Exmouth,
who was one of the party, made his appearance, and addressed
the mob, requesting them, as reasonable men, to desist from
their violent proceedings, and retire to their habitations. They
abused his Lordship, especially Mackenzie, who was resolutely
taken by Plank and Wales, the Officers. The violence of the
mob. not being abated, but increased, Lord Exmouth intimated
that he and the other Gentlemen were armed, and that Girth, r
outrage must necessarily urge them to nse their arms. His Lot ti•
ship was hooted s when he, with the rest of the party, sallit
forth. on the mob, and they were ultimately overpowered sod
dispersed. M'Adams, while his Lordship was pursuing some
fellows, was exciting the mob to violence against him, and be W.. 9
taken by Valentine.—A similar attack was made at the,blarqui,
of HertfOrd'i, in Manchester-square. In Portman-square the co.-
duct of the mob was so infamous, that the Officer' using their
cutlasses, some of the rioters were desperately wounded.—Tl•e
Officers proved the above circumstances, and were corroborated
by Captain Wilson, of the 20th Light Dragoons. They were
all ordered to find bail.—The Magistrates held a conference.
and, in order to pursue necessary steps for the preservation a
she public peaix and also the property of individuals, Messr,.
Lee and Smart, the High Constables, were sent for, and re-
ceiver/ instructions to have extra Parish-officers, 12 from each
Parish, one of whom should be stationed at the above Office, for
the purpose of conveying necessary intelligence to the I'ulice, if
the outrages were repeated.
