bria, which lett New York on Saturday last,

known member of Baltimore society, and a
daughter of the late Charles Carroll McTavish.
She has gone To Europe TO enter the Convent of
Carmelite Nuns at Brussels Belgium Though
Miss McTavish had considered the matter OF
entering q convent for some time IL was not
until a few weeks ago that she determined 10
forsake the world. She corresponded with the
professors of the converts of the order in Balti-
more and ST Louis, there being but three OF
them in this country, The third being at New
Orleans, and finding that the converts were
full, the number OF nuns at each convent being
limited, she communicated with the prioress OF
the convent at Brussels, and the result is her
departure for that city Her sister, Miss Virgil
MIA McTavish, went with her from Baltimore
steamer. A seamstress accompanied Miss
McTavish on the voyage. When Miss McravIsh
entered society few years ago she gained a
position AS one OF its brightest members and
held a place in the esteem OF her many friends
to which she was entitled 10y her beauty, many
graces and requirements. As defendant OF
Charles Carroll, OF Carrollton, her fathers
side, and OF Gen. Winfield scott on her mo-
ther's she inherits many of the qualities which
have characterized those families for several
generations in this country. Though Miss
McTavish has become OF rather a retiring dis
position since forming her resolution To enter
upon cpnvcntual life, her m ny friends will no
doubt be surprised at her intention, which Was
