Glasgow, March 10. On Saturday evening last, about twelve
o'clock, the inhabitants of this city were greatly alarmed
by the military drums beating to arms, which the citizens
took for the fire drum. Their fears however were soon over,
when they came to understand, that it was a sudden call for
the military to march directly for Greenock, in order to
quell a mutinous disturbance, occasioned by the sailors
insisting to have wages from the day they went on board to
proceed on their account.
