Tan " Roognet MARCH."—Yesterday morning
the ceremony of degrading and drumming a gunner if
the Royal Artillery out of her Majesty's service took
place at Woolwich. The delinquent, named Charles
Hirt, belonging to the bth battalion, only joined the
artillery In 1866, and during a period of barely three
yawn' service he has been guilty of various crimes
against the code of military laws, for which he has suf-
fered two years and seven months' imprisonment and con-
finement In the hospital. On the day of liberation from his
last oonfincroent he robbed a comrade of his great-ooat,
which Le sold, together with his own coat and boots, and
having been tried by a garrison court-martial he was con-
darned to the punishment of fifty ladies, to be dismissed the
Queen's service with ignominy, and to suffer a term of im-
prisonment in ens of her Majesty's gaols. The first portion
of the sentence was carried out about three weeks ago, and
on his discharge from hospital yesterday morning the terms
of the dismissal were complied with. Having been stripped
of his buttons and facings by the drummers of the battalion
he was conducted to the outer gates of the garrison, preceded
by the fifes playing the " Rogues' March," where he was
consigned to the charge of a military escort and conveyed to
Fort Clarence.
