VAUXIIA 1.1.. G AR DENS, LONDON.—Mr. Green made another
ascent in his balloon on Saturday afternoon, from these grounds,
and was on this occasion accompanied by Lord Dudley Stuart.
The gardens were well attended. The aerial ship, it is posi-
tively- asserted, will ascend with Count Lennox, his wife, and six
other persons, in the course often days or a fortnight.
AI I 1 ITA RY DISGRACE. —A private of the 92d reolment,,„ now
stationed in the barracks at Perth, was drummed out of the
corps this week as being an irreclaimable thief. He had suf-
fered corporal punishment, it is said, oftener than once hefore,
without effect. This inveterate delinquent, whom the military
thus kick off, rather than have -the dishonour of his society and
the 'danger of his contamination, is a native of Perth.

tween them as to certain pelts of the town that they should

poxP? No! take my advice—do the plain work first, and then I
will teach you the way to come thelanr,y. ziftorwißds."
