BLACKHEATH.—The Assemblies held at the
Green Man hotel dosed for the season on Monday evening
with a brilliant assemblage. They were uniformly well
and elegantly attended, and kept up with great spirit.

- -
TWO privates of the 72d Highlanders were,
on Monday last, drummed ont of their regiment at Canter-
bnry ; they had robbed the apartments of their Colonel
during his absence in Lendon, for which they received
600 lashes each. On their recovery, it was determined to
expel them from the regiment, and accordingly, having
been stripped of their uniforms, and dressed in plain clothes,
with ropes suspended round their necks, and led by the
the culprits were paraded round the bar-
younger hoyu of the regiment, the drums beating the
rack-square, andarck' drummed into Northgate, when they
went set at liberty, as unworthy of serving any longer in
the regiment.—Sussex Advertiser.
The country around us wears the most invit-
ing and cheering aspect; and in every direction rich ver-
dure and fertility, the gladdening earnest of plenty and
abundance in due season, present themselves. The young
wheats have recovered from their sickly hue which they
assumed, from the effects of the continued wetness of the
earlier period of the Spring, and now show vigorous mad
healthy ; the Lent grain is also, in most districts, above
!z-round, and reported to be going on favourably. The
prospect of a heavy crop of grass was never more flatter-
ing, and an early and prolific hay harvest may justly be
anticipated. Reports vary as to the likelihood of a crop of
::
fruit ; in seine places the blossom is spoken
of
uannpdrperomiry sing,
whilst in others it is stated to be looking
well......Herefoixi Journal.

INTERIOR OF A NUNNERY : A NUN TAKING
THE VEIL.—We have just seen a print of this striking cere-
mony, published by MooN, Boys, and GRAVES. It is from
a painting by GRANET, and is well worthy of attention.
The solemn aspect of the conventual chapel, the gable dress
of the Nuns, and the fine reach of perspective extending
up the whole length of the aisle, aro pourtraysd with much
effect. The Nun herself too who is in the act of kneel-
ing, while the Abbess or some assistant is cutting off her
ringlets, has a very impressive appearance. There is (if
we may use the term) a devout wretchedness about her,
highly characteristic of the ceremony she is undergoing.
On the whole, the print is an excellent one.
GRAND ENTERTAINMENT BY THE DUKE
AND DUCHESS OF ST. ALBANS.—A splendid entertain-
ment was given to a numerous and highly distinguished
