Gon save TnE Qcees . Another Proclamation commands the election of the sixteen Scottish Peers on the 15 th inst . [ The following appeared in our Second Edition of last week . ] _» FRIDAY , Joxe 26 . HOGSE OF LOUDS . —The Earl of JI _* _-lhs > ivort being interrogated by the Marquis of Clanricarde , stated that no correspondence had taken place wilh the government of Prance , in reference to the withdrawal of the extradition biB , bnt that government , acting in the friendly spirit which had characterised them in their relations with this country since the present ministry had come into office , bad . stated , when they found the opposition against tbe bill so severe thai they would not persevere in requiring the execution of the convention . The purpose of the bill was to carry out a convention agreed to by the late government , and he had naturally anticipated their support .
Lord Campbell believed , had the bill in question passed , _England wonld no longer have been a free asylum . The Xew Zealand Bill passed through committee . Several other bills having been forwarded a stage , their lordships adjourned at half-past eight o ' clock . HOUSE OF COMMOXS .-On the further proceeding of the Metropolitan Burials Bill , Lard Ebrixgtox moved a proviso to prevent buildings being erected in private burial grounds closed under the act , which was opposed by Lord J . Manners , and on a division lost by 80 votes against 21 , after which the measure passed . The General Board of Health Bill waa read a third time , and passed . Lord 3 . _Rrsszix moved concurrence with tbe Lords '
amendment to the Corrupt Practices at Elections B : ll , explaining that though those amendments would impair the efficacy of the bill , they would not destroy it , and that , therefore , it would be better to take itas it waa rather than risk the loss ofthe measure for the present session byreturning it to the Lords with their amendments struck out . Mr : Secretary Waxpole defended the conduct of the government , who were neither responsible for the bill nor the alterations which the Lords had made in it . The requirement of a joint address of both houses , as the preliminary to a commission of inquiry into any alleged case of
corruption , was a constitutional check npon a government desirous of making nse of the power which a majority in the Commons gave them to disfranchise boroughs opposed to them . Mr . T . Duncombe contended that government were responsible for the amendments , Lord Derby having adopted them after he had accepted the bill as brought in . Mr . Belt , believed the bill would be inoperative , and stated that , notwithstanding its anticipated passing , he had heen offered boroughs at various prices from £ 500 to £ 3 , 000 . The amendments were ultimately adopted . The house adjourned at seven o ' _cloes to Tuesday next to twelve .

A _SURGEOX COMMITTED FOR _MANSLAUGHTER . Yesterday ( Friday ) an inquest was held at Wellow , a village in the neighbourhood of Bath , before J . _Whitmore , Esq ., deputy coroner for the Northern Division of Somerset , and a respectable jury , upon the body of a woman named Ann _Nokes , thc wife of a labouring man residing in the village , who had died on Monday morning last , in consequence ( it was alleged ) of the gross neglect of the medical man who attended her in her confinement . The evidence occupied several hours , but the facts may be briefly stated . The poor woman ( the deceased ) was forty-five years of age and the mother of eleven children . On Sunday afternoon last she was taken in labour with the 12 th
child , and there being peculiar circumstances in her case , the woman in attendance upon her sent her husband for Mr . Bourn , a surgeon , residing at Radstock , a village a few miles off . That gentleman appears to have come as early as possible , and remained nine hours in attendance upon her , during which time he removed a part of the infant . At four o ' clock in the morning , however , he received a message from Mrs . Parker , the wife of a
yeoman hying a few miles off , requiring his attendance _nudersundar circumstances , and by whom his services had been bespoke two months previously . Strange as it may appear , he immediately resolved to leave tbe poor woman he was attending to go to his richer patient , on the plea that he _aTb o _™ be ' poke b _* *&*¦ _» ker but not by Mrs .

A Cruel Stepmother. At The Clerkenwell P...
A CRUEL STEPMOTHER . At the Clerkenwell Police Court , James Murphy and Mary , his wife , were charged with excessive cruelty towards James Collins , aged ten _yea'Mbe _stepson of tbe former prisoner .-The boy ' s person was _. exhibitedin court , and was one mass of severe cuts and bruises , and excited a sensation of horror . It appeared that he resided with the prisoners in _Ormand-yard , St . Andrews , _£ _, bor , P * _? the inhabitants were constantly alarmed by his loud cries for help . On Saturday last they again tieard his piercing cries , when information was given to Toomes , 150 _& , who toofe the prisoner into _custody .-The boy , who seemed to be half starved , gave evidence as to acts of cruelty by the male prUoner , who was fined £ 3 , or one month a imprisonment , and the female prisoner was discharged with a " assaulting the police-terrible retaliation .
A _4 the same Court John Toomey , a well known desperate character , was charged with assaulting the police , and attempting to rescue the above prisoners . The prisoner was severely wounded on the head by a blow from a constable ' s truncheon . A medical gentleman , who witnessed tho affray , said he did not come forward to defend theprisoner , whose conduct was exceedingly violent , but for the protection ofthe police , whose forbearance and behaviour wero most praiseworthy up to the time of the blow upon the prisoner ' s head with the truncheon' A crowd of persons were ready to assist if -necessary , and there was
no necessity for such violence being used . As a surgeon , he wished to impress upoa the police that striking a drunken man on tbe head with suoh a weapon might lead to most dangerous consequences . — -John Sheenan , 4 * 12 A , an active officer , said that the prisoner was exceedingly violent when he went io Toomes ' s assistance . The prisoner bit and kicked at him , and unless his brother officer had struck the prisoner the consequences might have been fatal to him { Sheenan . )~ Mr . Corrie told the prisoner that he was a most dangerous character , but in consequence of the severe punishment he had already received he would merely fine him 10 s „ otherwise , ho would have sent him to prison with hard labour for two months .
ASSAULTING THE " _© OLICE . At the same Court John Shaw , a young man of powerful appearance , was placed at the bar before Mr . Corrie , charged with having assaulted the police , and also with a violent assault upon Margaret O'Keefe , a young woman with whom he cohabited , by which she was so seriously injured that her life is placed in imminent danger . —Mr . Corrie said he would remand the prisoner for a week , and gave instructions to the constable to make inquiries at the hospital daily and report her state at this court , with the view that her deposition might be taken . James "Welsh , John Gorman , and Mary Welsh , tbe wife of the former prisoner , were charged with having been concerned in the following daring outrage and assaults on the police . The male prisoners _appeared with their heads bound up and covered with marks of violence . —It appearod from the evidence of Caleb Davis and Job Lewis , officers of theE division , both of whom were severely injured , the former having had his arm nearly broken , and who was otherwise so hurt that ho is disabled from duty , that on
Tuesday evening they received information that a desperate affray had taken place . in _Selina-place , _Somers-town . They repaired thither and found the neighbourhood in excitement and confusion , while the male prisoners were fighting with every one indiscriminately . Welsh escaped into a _houseandboltedhimsetrin . In attempting to apprehend him , he wrested Davis ' s staff from him and beat htm with it on his head , arm , and side unmercifully , while Mrs . Welsh had a broom , which she used desperately , and Gorman was also very violent . Welsh and his wife called out , " Kill the , " and it was not until a reinforcement of officers arrived on the spot thatthey could be taken into custody , when they resisted violently all the way tothe station house , where they were locked up .- —Mr . Corrie thought it a savage and lawless outrage , and fined Gorman 20 s . or three week ' s imprisonment ; Mrs . Welsh ho fined 10 s ., or one fortnight ' s imprisonment ; but Dames Welsh he would remand for having aasaulted the olScer Davis until the result of the . injurie * inflicted upon htm could satisfactorily be made known .
ALLEGED _CONSPIRACY AGAINST A SERVANTGIRL . At tho Thames Police Office Catherine Tierney , a decent < looking _servant-gir ) , eighteen years of age , who appeared overwhelmed with grief , was brought before Mr , Ingram , charged with stealing four gold pins , value £ 2 , the property of Mr . Samuel Acock , a timber-merchant , of No . 1 , York-street East , Stepney . —It is necessary to stato that Mrs . Acock , the wife of the prosecutor , and lately mistress of the prisoner , was fined 5 s ., on Monday , by Mr . Ingram , for ; an assault on the girl , who afterwards proceeded — in company with a young woman—to the prosecutor ' s house to fetch her box away , and hence arose the present charge . —Mr . Acock said that the prifoner had been in his service for a short time up to tbat day week , when she left . ' On Monday evening she called at his house for a box containing her clothes , and when sho brought it down stairs he intimated that he mnst search it and look over the things . She obieoted to it , and said she would not
allow her box to pe searched . An officer was then sent for , and all her clothes were turned out , and when the girl had done picking them up again , a small red box was found on the oil-cloth where her clothes had been . It contained four gold pins . He had last seen the box seven or eight days ago , or it might be more . When he accused the _[ _irisoner of stealing the box and its contents she cried and sobbed , and said sho was innocent , and had never seen the properly before . —After hearing several-witnesses , Mr , Ingram _sairf this was a case of conflicting evidence , and he would send it before a jury , lt was imputed to Mr . and Mrs . Acook that they bad entered into a conspiracy to prefer a false charge against an innocent girl . That court was not the proper tribunal to try Buob a question . He would take one responsible surety in the sum of £ 20 , for the prisoner ' s appearance on the next Friday , when the depositions would be completed , and the prisoner committed for trial . —A gentlemen quite unacquainted with the prisoner , who had heard the oase , offered himself as bail , and was accepted .

At the same Court Henry Ready , about fifty-five years of age , who carries on the business of a wholesale tallowchandler and melter , was charged with assaulting his wife , who was in a very bad state of health . —Mr 3 Ready , who appears to be a few years older than her husband , stated that her private residence was in Regent-street , Mile-end . On Wednesday last , in oonsequence of having been confined at home a good deal , she went out for a few hours in the evening , - and on her return home a few minutes past ten o ' clock , ahe found ber husband reading a newspaper . There was nothing provided for her supper as she expected , and sho remarked that she was bo faint , tbat she required something more than bread , which was on the table . Her husband replied that he had had nothing else , and there
was nothing more for her . ahe cut a slice of bread and butter , and partook of that with a half-pint of beer , and while finishing the last drop of it , he took up his own pot , which had contained beer , and threw it at her , but it only struck the lower part of her dress , and did not hurt her . He then , without saying a word , took the poker from the fire-place , and struck her several heavy blows with it ; ono blow fell on her knuckles , and broke one of her fingers , the second on her wrist , and the third on the top of her knee , and the blood flowed from her fingers and knee . — Mr . Ready , jun ., Baid that Mb father had been in the practice of beating his mother for many years with his fists , and throwing things at her . —Mr . Ingham said on this evidence he could not do otherwise than commit the defendant for trial for assaulting and maliciously wounding his wife .

Ewins , George-yard , Hattonwall , was charged with the following shocking cruelty to a horse . —Potter , 84 D _, deposed , that at seven o ' clock , he saw the prisoner driving along Paddingtoh-streefc , having in bis vehicle a mare , which he kept flogging in a most unmerciful manner with his wip . The poor animal was in a very weak condition , and blood was running from it in a ' stream . Witness called to the prisoner to stop , which he did ; and , on the mare being examined , it was found that owing to the severity of the lashing inflioted one of the teats had been cut off , in adding to which there were
numerous wounds upon the belly and legs . At the spot where the prisoner was stopped there was a great quantity of blood upon the ground . ; and the excuse which be ( prisoner ) mado for his couduct was , that he wanted to get to the Great Western . Railway in time for the train . Witness then conveyed him to the station-house , and took his horse and cab to the greenyard . Witness produced the whip , the thong of which was nearly covered with blood . —Mr . Long went out to look at the poor animal , which had been brought up to the front entrance of the court , and on his return remarked that -a more gross case of cruelty had scarcely ever come under his notice . —The prisoner was fined 50 s ., or a month ' s hard labour in the House of Cor .

A BRUTAL HUSBAND . At the Worship-street Police Court Daniel Stephens was charged with an assault upon his wife . —The wife , a very decent-looking woman , stated that ber buBband had been for a long time paBt in the habit of very cruelly beating her , and was so addicted to drunkenness that he constantly spent all he earned in public-houses , contributing nothing for the support of hia family , and leaving her to get a subsistence in any manner she could . He had not given her a shilling for the last fortnight , during- the whole of which time ho bad absented himself from home , and to protect herself from his violence , incase he should return , sho fastened up the door of the room on the preceding
evening ; at a late hour , however , the prisoner came back again in a state of intoxication , and demanded admittance , and on her refusing to let him in , be forced an entrance by bursting in the door , and the instant he got into the room he felled her to the ground with a heavy blow on the side of her head with a thick stick , and left her _Benseless for a few minutes . —Mr . D'Eyncourt was about to deal severely with the prisoner , when the wife earnestly interfered on bis behalf , declaring that she only wanted protection from his " violence in future , and ho was therefore sent tothe House of Correction for one month , in default of paying a proportionate penalty . THE LAMBETH ELECTION- " SPIRITED "
PARTISANS . Yesterday the hon . G . C . Norton was occupied for up . wards of two hours in investigating a oharge of assault , preferred by __ Mr . William _Ayerst , a blacking manufacturer , carrying on business at 7 , Herbert-place , St . Georges * iew Town , and an elector for the Borough of Lambeth , against James Thomas Lee , a constable belonging to the L dwis > on of police . . On Monday evening last a
A Cruel Stepmother. At The Clerkenwell P...
meeting of the professed friends and supporters of Mr ; Harvey , the new candidate for the representation of the Borough of Lambeth in Parliament , was appointed to take glace at the Horns Tavern , _Kennington-cross , at whioh the honourable candidate was to make _^ declaration of his political principles . Several of the electors who have been , and are , the strenuous supporters of Messrs . D'Eyncourt and Williams , made their appearance at the meeting , and the complainant among the number . Mr . Taylor , one of the ohurohwardens of the parish of Lambeth , took ; the chair , and commenced addressing the meeting , but in a few minutes after Mr . Harvey made his appearancoiK the room , and three cheers were called for him . This call waa responded to , and before the applause had subsided tha complainant ,. Mr . Ayerst , in a stentorian voice called out for three cheers for D'Eyncourt and meeting of the professed friends and supporters of Mr ; Harve _y , the new candidate for the _renreBentatinn _nf th *
Williams . This call was also responded to . This circumstance gave rise to so mueh disturbance that the chairman , supported , it was said , by a majority of the meeting _, called on the defendant Lee to remove Mr . Ayerst , and he was by foroe expelled the room of meeting . —The complainant , who appeared in the dress of a cellarman or bottle washer , with a leathern apron up to his chin , said . that he had been seized by the collar and lugged out of the _meetina by a person whom he believed to be thedefeudant . — Mr . Parry : Sow , Mr . Ayerst , I wish to ask you , as you _appear very much excited , whether you have been drinking anything today ? Mr . Ayerst ( in aloud tone of voice ) : Yes , I have just had a glass of brandy and soda . ( Laughter . )—Mr . Parry : I thought you must have had something , you seemed so " spirited" and excited . —Several witnesses were called by the complainant , all of whom said that the complainant had been treated with
unnecessary harshness . Por the defence an equal number of witnesses were called , all of whom deposed that it was thoir opinion that the complainant had attended the meeting for tho sole purpose of distmbingit ; that his conduot was most noisy , so much so that his expulsion was absolutely necessary , though his removal was at . the desire and earnest request of a large majority of the meeting . One witness described the complainant as such an enthusiastic partisan of Mr : D'Enycourt that at a recent meeting he told that hon . candidate that " if he ever went to hell he should lose a quarter ef an hour iii pulling hira out , " while in Mr . trvey's presence he said , " that if the electors wanted a ff they must go to Lambeth-house . "—Mr . Norton _dismissed the complaint . At the same time hoped ttiat the partisans ofthe different-candidates wouled act during the forthcoming election for the borough with that spirit of fairness and good humour , which were the characteristics ef Englishmen . These remarks were received with loud cheers .

Still tako every opportunity , where vacant ground occurs , to put in successional crops ; varying ef course the rotation according to the nature of the soil . Carrots , Onions , Parsnips , Beets , & c , fhould now be finally thinned out . Proceed with making trenches for the late crops of Celery . A good breadth of Turnips should be sown ; and a few Horn Carrots , to draw young in the autumn . Transplant tlie various Broceolies and Kales , to get strong before tbeir final planting out . Finish earthing up Potatoes , if not already done ; and make frequent sowings of Lettuce , Endive , Radishes , and similar vegetables of short duration . Wheu dry wiather sets in , go over the whole of the growing crops , and well stir the soil between each plant . Continue sowing Peas , Beans , and French Beans ; the more early kinds of Peas should be substituted for the larger growing sorts .
HARDY FBUIT _GABDEtf . We hear that numerous Peach and Nectarine trees are injured by tha heavy rains and void sunless weather ; in addition , the blight has made sad havoc in this neighbourhood . Continue to follow up our previous directions ; and either use the sulphurator chirged with snuff and sulphur or use tobacco water . Nail in shoots when sufficiently advanced j their chance of ripening will increase by being close to the wall . The same rule should be fol . lowed with other wall trees in general . Wash Cherries frequently , and thin out the fruit of _Morellos , when too thick ; remove those suckers from the Raspberry plots not required lor next season ' s wood , that a larger share of sun and air may be admitted to the ripening fruit -, for thc same reasons pinch off the extra shoots on the Gooseberry and Currant bushes , and as the fruit would now be disfigured by washings of lime or soot water , employ women and children to pick off the caterpi : lars , if you find them still troublesome .
FIOWER GARDEN AND SHRUBBEBT . The present puddled state of the ground will render a complete stirring of the beds necessary , whenever it gets dry enough for the purpose ; making good at the same time the failures by damp _, ing off , which appear numerous enough , more especially with delicate plants . Take up the various spring-flowering bulbs as they get ripe , and dry them preparatory to stowing them away j the beds should ba refilled with plants from the reserve stock ; for an autumnal display proceed with propagating the more desirable kinds of perennials , as double Wallflowers , Rockets , & c _, of which latter the double scarlet is a real acquisition . The American shrubs are now in full bloom , and their beauty ought to obtain
for them a more general distribution , especially when we consider that the more common varieties are not only hardier than the common Laurel , but will even grow where the Laurel would starve . Frequently examine Roses , for causes before adverted to ; remove suckers , and keep closely tied in those supported by poles , or against walls or trellising . When dry weather occurs , the shrubbery borders will require hoeing and raking , to stir and clean the _turface ; peg down the lower branches of shrubs near the outsides of the borders , that they may iu time cover the ground j see that all newly planted trees and shrubs are properly secured _against the action of high winds ; Those whicli have been somo time staked should be looked at , to see the tie is not doing injury by friction , or the swelling of the bark . —Gardener ' * Chronicle .
_JHE FLOATING GABDENS OF MEXICO . According to the Abbe Clavigero , when the Mexicans were brought into subjection to the Call . uau and Tepaneean nations , and _confined to tbe miserable little islands on the lake , they ceased for som e years to cultivate the land , because they had none until necessity and industry together taught tbem to form moveable fields and gardens whicli floated on tue waters of the lake . The mode of forming these of wicker-work , water plants , and mud , may be easily conceived . The boat , or basis , is commonly eight perches long , by three broad . They first cultivated the maize and useful plants only ; but afterwards ' there were among them gardens of flowers and odoriferous plants , which were employed in the worship oi the gods , and served for the recreation of the nobles . ' At
present lhey cultivate flowers and every sort of garden herbs upon them , all of which thrive surprisingly . In the largest gardens there is commonly a little tree , and even a little hut , to shelter the cultivator , and defend him from rain or the sun . When the owner of a garden wishes to change his situation , to removo from a bad neighbour , or come nearer to his own family , he gets into his little vessel , and by his own strength alone , if the garden is small , or with aid , if it is large , he tows it after him , and conducts it where he pleases , with the little tree and hut on it . The part of the lake where the gardens are is a place of infinite recreation , where the senses receive the highest possible gratification . Humboldt says these gardens still exist ; that the bean , pea , apple , artichoke , cauliflowers , and a great variety of other culinary plants , are cultivated on them . — From the Gardiner ' s RccjivL
TO MAKE EHOBABB WINE , To every gallon of water ( rain water is best ) , add five pounds of ripe rhubarb cut into thin slices ; let it stand nine days , stirring it three times a day , and it is well to cover the pah or tub with a blanket or cloth . Stain or squeeze tho macerated substance through a coarse cloth ; to every gallon of the liquor thus procured add four pounds of white sugar , ibe juice of two lemons , and the rind of . one ; then to fine it , one ounce of isinglass to every nine gallons j and this part of the operation maybe thus performed : take about a pint of the liquor , in which melt the isinglass over the fire ; be sure thatit is cold before pouring it into the vessel containing tbe rest of tbe _lumor . That done , cask it . When the fermentation ia over bung it down . Bottle in March ; and tbe following June it will bo fie for use .
GARDENS _OF VAN _DiEMEH _' s IiAND . The following extract from Colonel Mundy ' _s amusing volume 1 Our Antipodes , ' giving ah account ofthe gardens of Van Diemen's Land , is interesting . The luxuriance of the common red Geranium at this season makes _everj spot look gay ; at the distance of miles the tight is attracted and _doazled by the wide patches of scarlet dotted over the _lundscape . The hedges of Sweetbriar , both in town gardens and country enclosures , covered with its delicate Rose , absolutely monopolise tbe air as a vehicle for its peculiar perfume : the closely-clipped Mint borders , _supplying tbe place of Box , sometimes , however , overpower the Sweetbriar and every other scent of ( he gardens . Every kind of English flower and fruit appears to benefit by transportation to "Van Diemen ' s Land ; wellremembered shrubs and plants , to which the heat of Australia is fatal , thrive in the utmost luxuriance under this more southern climate . For five years Ihave losteightof a rough , but respected old friend—the Holl y , or at most I had contemplated with chastened affection one wretched little specimen in the Sidney Botanic Garden , labelled for the enlightenment of the corn stalks . But in a Hobart Town Garden , I suddenly found msself in the of a
presence full-grown Holly , spangled with red berries , into whose embrace I incontinently rushed to the astonishment of a large party of the brave and fair , as well as to that of my most prominent feature , The Fuchsia—the old original FuchBia gracilis , attainB here an extraordinary growth . Edging the beds of a fine garden near where Hired , there were hundreds of yards of Fuchsia in bloom ; and in the middle of the town I saw one day a young just married military couple smiling in all the plentitude of honey-lunacy , through a cottage window , wholly surrounded by this pretty plant , wbich not only covered the entire front of the modest residence , but reached above its eaves . Here , too , to get back to my botany , I renewed my acquaintance with tho Walnut and the Filbert , just now ripe ; the Spanish and Horse Chesnuts , the Lime tree with its bee-beloved blossom and the dear old Hawthorn of my native land . As for Cherry and Apple trees , and the various domesticated berry bushes ef the English garden , my regard for thera was expressed in a le 6 s sentimental manner . 1 defy any school-bey or midship-mite' to have outdone me in devotion to their products , however much these more youthful votaries may have beaten me in the digestion of them .

When The Committee Ofthe French Academy ...
When the committee ofthe French Academy were employed in preparing the well known Academy Dictionary , _Uuvier , the celebrated naturalist , came one day into the room where they were holding a session . " Glad to see you , M . Cuvier , " said one ofthe forty , " we have just finished a dehmtionwhich we think quite satisfactory , but on which we should like to have your opinion . We have been defining the word Crab , and havo explained it thus :-Crab , a small red fish , whieh walks backwards . '" " Per lect , gentlemen , " said Cuvier , " only , i f you will give mo leave , 1 will make one small observation in Natural History _, ihe crab ! s not a fish—it is not red , and it does not walk backwards . With these exceptions , your definition is ex-Pobxical Si'PPeb . —Moore ' s Oriental Romance was new ; writing down its title , I sent for it , to the Circuiting Library at which I subscribed , bv the verv maid whoso "
