{ The following appeared in our Second Edition of last week . ] FRIDAY , Jose 26 . HOCSE OF LORDS . —The Earl of Malhe _. boht being interrogated by the Marquis of Clanricarde , stated thafc no correspondence bad taken place with the government of France , in reference to the withdrawal of tbe extradition hill , but tbat government , acting in the friendly spirit which bad characterised tbem in tbeir relations with this country since tbe present ministry had come into office , had stated , when they found tbe opposition against the hill so severe , that tbey . 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 would no longer have been a free asylum . The New Zealand Bill passed through committee . Several other bills having been forwarded a stage , their lordships adjourned at half-past eight o ' clock . HOUSE OF COMMONS .-On tbe further proceeding Of the Metropolitan Burials Bill , Lord Ebrixotox 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 was read a third time , and passed . Lord J . _Rrsssix moved concurrence with the Lords ' amendment to the Corrupt Practices afc Elections B : ll , explaining tbat though those amendments would impair the efficacy of the bill , tbey would not destroy ifc , and that , therefore , it would be better to take itas it was rather than risk the loss of the measure for the present session byreturning it to the Lords with their amendments struck out . Mr . Secretary Walpole defended the conduct of the government , who were neither responsible for tbe bill , nor the alterations which the Lords had made in it . Tbe 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 upon a government desirous of making use of the power wbich a majority in the . Commons gave tbem to disfranchise boroughs opposed to them . Mn T . Duncombe contended that government were responsible for the amendments , Lord Derby having adopted them after he bad accepted the bill as brought in .
Mr . Bell believed the bill would be inoperative , and stated tbat , notwithstanding its anticipated passing , he had been offered boroughs at various prices from £ 500 to £ 3 , 000 . The amendments were ultimately adopted . The bouse adjourned at seven o ' clock to Tuesday next to twelve .

A SURGEON COMMITTED FOR MANSLAUGHTER . Yesterday ( Friday ) an inquest was held at Wellow , a village in the nei ghbourhood of Bath , before J . "Whitmore , Esq ., deputy coroner for the Northern Division of Somerset , and a respectable jury , upon tbe body of a woman named Ann Nokes , the wife of a labouring man residing in the village , wbo had died on Monday morning last , in consequence ( it was alleged ) of the gros 3 neglect of the medical man who attended her in her confinement .

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 tbe 12 th child , and there being peculiar circumstances in her case , the woman in attendance upon her sent her imfiband for Mr , Bourn , a surgeon , residing at Rad-Block , a village a few miles off . That gentleman appears to have come as early as possible , and remained nine hours in attendance npon her , during which time be 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 living a few miles oft . requiring his attendance _-Mto sL ___ _iar circumstances , and by whom his services had Seen n . _'poke two months previously . Strange as it may appear , he immediately resolved to leave the pcor woman he was attending to go to his richer patient , on the plea that he had been bespoke by Mrs . Parker but not by Mrs . Nokes . _afanK _° _t \ i j gone * a meEsenser was despatched to Mr . wc __! __ - - - _ r ° mfr _Norton , who immediatelv attended , and _ThVWwl t the " 0 Pera * i _«>** left unfinished by Mr .

It appeared that he resided with the prisoners in Ormand-yard , St . Andrews , Holborn , and the inhabitants were constantly alarmed by his loud cries for help . Oil Saturday last they again heard bis piercing cries , when information was given to Toomes , 150 E , who took the prisoner into custody . —The boy , who seemed to be half starved , gave evidence as to acts of cruelty by tho male prisoner , who was fined £ 3 , or one month ' s imprisonment , and the female prisoner was discharged with a reprimand . ASSAULTING THE POLICE-TERRIBLE
RETALIATION . At the same Court John Toomey , a well known desperate character , was oharged with assaulting the police , and attempting to rescue the above prisoners . Tbe prisoner was severely wounded on the head by a blow from a constable ' s truncheon . A medical gentleman , who witnessed the affray , siid he did not come forward to defend the prisoner , -. "hose conduct was exceedingly violent , but for the protection of the police , whose forbearance nnd behaviour were 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 waa
no necessity for such violence being used . As a surgeon , be wished to impress upon the police that striking a drunken manon the head with such a weapon might lead to most dangerous consequences . —John Sheenan , 442 A , an active officer , said that the prisoner was exceedingly violent when ho went to Toomes ' s assistance . The prisoner bit and kicked at him , and unless his brother officer had Btruck the prisoner the _oonsequences 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 _nunisbment he had already received he would merely fine him 10 a ., otherwise , he would have sent bim to prison with hard labour for two months .
ASSAULTING THE POLICE . At the same Court John Shaw , a young man of powerful appearance , was placed at the bar' before 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 ber deposition might be taken .
. James "Welsh , John Gorman , and Mary Welsh , the wife of the former prisoner , were charged with having been concerned in the following daring outrage and assaults on tbe police . The male prisoners appeared with their heads bound up and covered witb marks of violence . —It appeared from the evidence of Caleb Davis and Job Lewis , officers of the E division , both of whom were severely injured , the former having had his arm nearly broken , and who was otherwise so hurt tbat he is disabled from duty , that on Tuesday evening they received information that a desperate affray had taken place in Selina-place , _Somers-town . Tbey repaired thither and found the neighbourhood in excitement and confusion , while the male prisoners were fighting with every one indiscriminately . Welsh escaped into a
house and bolted himsefl in . In attempting to apprehend him , he wrested Davis ' s staff from him and beat him with it on bis 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 that they could be taken into custody , when they resisted violently all the way to the 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 James Welsh he would remand for baving assaulted the officer Davis until the result of the injuries inflicted upon him could satisfactorily be made known .

Ingram , _forjm 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 tbe present cbarge . —Mr . Acock said that the prisoner had been in his service for a short time up to that day week , when she left . On Monday evening she called afc his house for a box containing her clothes , and when she brought it down stairs he intimated that he must search it and look over tho things . She objected to ifc , nnd said she would not
allow her box to be _oearched . 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 . Ifc contained four gold pins . He had last seen the box seven or eight days ago , or it might be more . When he accused the prisoner of stealing the box and its contents she cried and sobbed , nnd -said she was innocent , and had never seen the properly before . —After hearing several witnesses , Mr . Ingram Baid this was a case of conflicting evidence , and he would send it before a jury . It was imputed to Mr . and Mrs . Acock that they had entered into a conspiracy to prefer a false charge against ah innocent girl . That court was nofc the proper tribunal to try such a question . He would take one responsible surety in the sum of £ 20 , for the prisoner ' s appearance qn , the next Friday , when tho depositions would be completed , and the prisoner committed for trial . —A gentlemen quite unacquainted witb the prisoner , who had heard the case , offered himself as bail , and was accepted . . .

At the same Court Henry Ready , about fifty-five years of age , who carries on tbe business of a wholesale tallowchandler and melter , was charged with assaulting his wife , who was in a very bad state of health . —Mrs 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 consequence 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 , she . found ber husband reading a newspaper . There was nothing provided for her supper as she expected , and she remarked that she was so faint , that 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 . She cut a slice of bread and butter , and partook ofthatwitha half-pint of beer , and while finishing the last drop of it , he took up hia own pot , which had contained beer , and threw it at her , but it only struck the lower parfc . of her dress , and did not hurt ber . He then , without saying a word , took the poker from the fire-place , and struck her several heavy blows with it ; one blow fell on ber knuckles , and broke one of ber 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 ., said that his father bad been in the practice of beating his mother for many years with his fists , and throwing things at her . —Mr . Ingham said on tbis evidence he could not do otherwise than commit tbe defendant for trial for assaulting and maliciously wounding bis

Afc the Marylebone Police Courb Richard Stiff , a oab driver , in the service of Mr . _Ewins , _George-yard , Hattonwall , was charged with tho following shocking cruelty to a horse . —Potter , 84 D , deposed , that at seven o ' clock , he saw tbe prisoner driving along Paddington-streefc , having in his 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 _wbb running from ifc in a stream . Witness called to the prisoner to stop , which be did ; and , on the mare being examined , it was found tbat owing to the severity of the laShing inflicted one of the teats bad been cut off , in adding to which there were
numerous wounds upon tbe belly and legs . At the spot where tho prisoner was stopped there was a great quantity of blood upon the ground ; and the excuse which be ( prisoner ) made for his conduct was , thafc he wanted to get to the Great Western Railway in t . ipie for the train . Witness then conveyed him to the station-house , and took his horse and cab to tbe greenyard , - _^ ine ss produced the whip , _tjj _ e . jgj (> ng of which was _nearlyTchvered with blood . —Mr . i & iij » iwent out to look at th ' e ; pobr animal , wbicb bad been _IjCftjiJjit up to the front entrance of the _courts-and on his _rptpto remarked that a more ' gross case _pf cruelty had _sisarcely ever come under his notice . —The prisoner was fij __ ad 50 s ., or a month ' s hard labour in the House of Cor . reclion .
A BRUTAL HUSBAND . At the Worship-street Police Court Daniel Stephens was charged with an assault upon his wifo . —The wife , a very decent-looking woman , stated that her husband had been for a long time past 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 his family , and leaving her to get a subsistence in any manner she could , He had nofc given her a shilling for the last fortnight , during the whole of whioh time he bad absented himself from home , and to protect herself from his violence ,, in case he should return , she
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 , he forced an entrance by bursting in the door and the instant he got into the room he felled her to the ground witb a heavy blow on tbe side of her head with a thick stick , and left her _sonseless for a few minutes . —Mr . D'Eynoourt was about to deal severely with the prisoner , wheu the wife earnestly interfered on his behalf , declaring that she only wanted protection from his violence in future , and he was therefore sent to the House of Correction for one month , in default of paying a _proportionate penalty . THE LAMBETH ELECTION— '' SPIRITED "

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 place at the Horns Tavern , _Kennington-cross , at which the honourable candidate waB to make a declaration of bis political principles . Several of the electors who have been , and are , the strenuous supporters of Messrs . D'Eynoourt and Williams , made their appearance at the meeting , and the complainant among the number . Mr . Taylor , one of the churchwardens of tbo parish of Lambeth , took the chair , and commenced addressing the meeting , but in a few minutes after Mr . Harvey made his appearance in the room , and three cheers wero called for him . This call was responded to , and before the applause had subsided the complainant , Mr . Ayerst , in a stentorian voice called out for three cheers for D'Eynoourt and .. _ ,.. _.., _ . ___ .. _.
Williams . This call was also responded to , This circumstance gave rise to so much disturbance that tbe chairman , supported , it was said , by a majority of the meeting _, called on the defendant Lee to remove Mr . Ayerst , and he was by force expelled the room of meeting . —The complainant , who appeared in tbe dress of a cellarman or bottle washer , with a leathern apron up to his chin , said , tbat he had been seized by the collar and lugged out of the meeting by a person whom he believed to be the defendant ; . — Mr . P _. rry : Now , Mr . Ayerst , I wish to ask you , as you appear very much excited , whether you have been drinking anything today ? Mr . Ayerst ( in a loud tone of voice ) : Yes , I hav _ just had a glass of brandy and soda . ( L . agbter . )—Mr . Parry ' : I thought you must have had something , you seemed so " spirited" and excited . —Several witnesses were caliod by the complainant , all of whom said that the complainant had been treated with unnecessary harshness . For the defence an equal number of
witnesses were called , all of whom deposed tbat ifc was their opinion that the complainant had attended the meeting for the polo purpose of disturbing it ; that his conduct was most noisy , so much so that bis expulsion was absolutely necessary , tbuugb 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 afc a recent meeting he told that bon . candidate thafc " if he ever went to hell he should lose a quarter of an hour in pulling him out , '" while in Mr . Harvey's presence he said , " that if tbe electors wanted a muff they must go to Lambeth-house . " —Mr . Norton dismissed the complaint . At the same time hoped that the partisans of the different candidates wouled act during the forthcoming election for the borough with thafc spirit of fairness and good humour , which were the characteristics ef Englishmen . These remarks were received witb loud cheers .

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 the various Broccolies and Kales , to get strong before their 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 . When dry wiather sets iu , 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 ihe Iarcer _crowine sorts .

Continue to follow up ou > - _previous directions ; and either use the sulphuratnr chirged with snuff and sulphur or use tobacco water . Nail in shoots when _. ufficiently advanced ; their chance-of ripening will increase by being close to the wall . The same rule should be followed 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 tor next season ' s wood , that a larger share of sun and air may be admitted to the ripening fruit ; for the same reasous pinch off the extra shoots on _the-Gooseberry and Currant bushes , and as theftult would now be disfigured hy ' washing , of lime or soot water , employ . women and children . to pick oft * the caterpv . _lars , if you find them .. till trouble _. ome .

Tlie 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 _plauts . Take up the various spring-flowering bulbs as they get ripe , and dry them preparatory to stowing them away ; the beds _jhoald bs 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 . Tho American shrubs are now in full bloom , and their beauty ought to " obtain
for them a more general distributiort _^ _especially when we consider that the more common varieties are not only _hardfer 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 _trellistofj . When dry weather occurs , the shrubbery borders will require hoeing and raking , to stir and clean tho > urfac 3 ; peg down the lower branches of shrubs near the outsides of the borders , that they may in time cover the ground ; see that all _. newly planted trees and shrubs are properly secured _against the ' action of high winds ; Tliose which have been some time staked should be looked at , to see the tie is not doing injury _!¦>• friction , or the _Bwellingof the bark . —Gardener's Chronicle
THE FLOATING GARDENS OF MEXICO . According to the Abbe Clavigero , when the Mexicans were brought into subjection to the Cnll . uan and Tepaneean nations , and confined to the miserable little islands on the lake ,- they ceased for some years to cultivate the land , because they had none until necessity and industry together taught them to form moveable fields and gardens whicli floated on the waters of the lake . Thc mode of formingthese of wicker-work , water plants , and mud , may bo 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 wero among them gardens of flowers and odoriferous plants , which were employed in the worship of the gods , and served for the recreation of the nobles . ' At
present they 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 remove from a bad neighbour , or come nearer to his own family , he gets into his little vessel , and by his own strength atone , 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 aro 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 , cauliflower ., and a great variety of other culinary plants , are cultivated on them . — From the Gardiner ' s _Rccird .
TO MAKE EHUBAHB 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 pan or tub with a blanket or cloth . Stain or squeeze the macerated substance through a coavse cloth ; to every gallon ofthe liquor thus procured add four pouuds of white sugar , the juice of two lemons , and the rind of one ; then to floe it , one ounce of isinglass to every nine gallons ; and this part of the operation maybe thus performed : take about a pint of tbe liquor , in which melt the isinglass over the fire ; be sure tbat it is cold before pouring it into the vessel containing ; the rest of the _liquor . That done , cask it . When the fermentation is over bung it down . Bottle iu . furch ; and the following June it will be fit for use . OAKDENS OF VAS D ' _.-MEll ' _s LARD .
The _fallowing _oxtract from Colonel Mundy ' s amusing volume ' Our Antipodes , ' giving an account of the gardens of Van Diemen ' s Land , is interesting . The luxuriance of the common red Geranium at thi . season makes ever } spot look gay ; at the distance of miles the tight is attracted and du _. zled by thc wide patches of searlet dotted over the landscape . The hedges of Sweetbriar , both in town gardens and country enclosures , covered with its delicate Rose , absolutely monopolise the air as a vehicle for its peculiar perfume : the closely-clipped Mint borders , supplyiug the place of Box , sometimes , however , overpower the Sweetbriar and every other scent of the 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 utmoBt luxuriance under tbis more southern climate . For five years I have lost Bight of a rough , but respected old friend—the Holly , 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 myself in the presence of a
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 Fuchsia gracilis , attains here an extraordinary growth . Edging the beds of a fine garden near where Hived , 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 , whieh 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 nnd Horse Chesnnts _. the Lime tree with its bee-beloved blossom and the dear old Hawtlwrn of my native land . As for Cherry and Apple trees , and the various domesticated berry bushes of the English garden , my regard for them was expressed in a less sentimental manner . I 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 ol t . __ m . '
