The scratching of The Earl for the St. Leger has been an animated topic of conversation ever since the news became generally known last Saturday, and our corres spondent "Augur" supplies some startling facts with re ference to the affair published in his letter to-day. Mr. Padwick, who has hitherto been made the principal scape goat, appears to be wishful to clear himself of the odium attaching to the business, and so much is he in earnest to have all the facts elicited that he resolved to remain no longer silenG under the lash of public criticism, and yes terday (Tuesday) addressed the following letter to the Stewards of the Jockey Club : " To the Stewards of the Jockey Club. "My Lords and Gentlemen,—lt is with much regret I am induced to trouble you on a personal matter, but as an owner of racehorses for nearly thirty years, I feel that I have some claim on your consideration, having been made the subject of much abuse, and imputations cast on me with reference to circumstances which occurred on the late Derby and the forthcoming St. Leger. I have therefore respectfully to request you will cause a strict investigation to be made into all the circumstances in any way relating to the striking of The Earl out of the above-mentioned races, and I readily tender you every facility in my power to render the investigation as searching and complete as possible. " I have the honour to remain, " Yours most obediently, " IlEntY PADWICK. "Doncaster, September 8, 1868." It is to be hoped that the Stewards will accede to this pro position of the owner of Athena. At all events it should gratify all connected with the turf to find a gentleman who has been so well abused coming forward to vindicate him self. It will be perceived that Mr. Padwick not only courts the strictest investigation to be made into the cir cumstances, not only attending the scratching of The Earl for the St. Leger, but for the Derby also. The pro babilities of this affair have been warmly discussed at Doncaster, and there will be a sense of relief if the whole business is satisfactorily cleared up. The following letter was posted in the rooms last night: " Infirmary for Horses, No. 91, Park-street, Grosvenor square, Loudon, Sept. 5, 1868. "I hereby certify that I have this day examined, at Danebury, by request of the Marquis of Hastings, a thoroughbred horse called The Earl, and am of opinion that the said horse is lame from a strain of the suspensory ligament of his near fore leg, and quite unfit to run in the approaching St. Leger race.

A letter from Gloucester on Tuesday says: "The disagreeable controversy as to the use of the cathedral for musical purposes has been strongly revived. The known Objections of the bishop and of the dean and chapter generally have been prominently set forth by their absence. The lady of the bishop (Mrs. Ellicott), who is a dis tinguished amateur and a strong Schachnerite, it is true is here, and Lord Ellenborough, a staunch supporter of these meetings, is doing the honours of the deanery, but the canons and other great guns of the cathedral have been con spicuous by their absence. Canon Murray Browne sticks to the festival flag, and so does Canon Richard Harvey. The son of the latter, the Rev. C. M. Harvey, curate of Hampstead, who is one of the stewards, chanted the service this morning, in the absence of the minor canon in residence. It seemed significant that an amateur from London should thus be selected. There was some idle rumour, indeed, of the surplices having been locked up to diminish the imposing aspect of the choralists ; but if the intention existed it was not carried out, or had been frustrated. Owing to the closing of the cathedral doors when the choir was filled, an angry feeling was created, and one indignant English. man openly harangued the mobocracy gathered near the post-office as to the iniquity of such exclusion, but the effective exhortation of a Gloucester policeman put a stop to what might have been intended as a demonstration of the Beales Charing-cross school. It is, however, impossible to disguise the fact, that the anti-festival movement is assuming disagreeable proportions, but whether a bishop or a dean, or both, can contend suscess fully against public feeling may reasonably be doubted. Her Most Gracious Majesty the Queen and their Royal Highnesses the Prince and Princess of Wales patronise the meeting. The president is the Duke ssf Beaufort ; the vice-presidents are the lord-lieu tenants of the three counties, and the right revs. the lord bishops of the three dioceses; and the stewards are the 106 noblemen and gentlemen whose names were pub lished on Monday. Surely against such an array of patrons and officials the - opposition of a small section of the clergy cannot avail. The influx of visitors, it may be _ added, has been unusually large, and the demand for places unprecedentedly great even for what are regarded as the off days, such as Tuesday and Thurs day, when the schemes are of the `omnibus rebus' class." Theriwas morning service onTuesday, when the sermon was preached by the Rev. Canon Lysons, who protested urgently against the term of " ungodly " being applied to those who considered that the musical meetings best pro moted the objects they all had in view, to assist the dis tressed survivors of the hard-working pastor. The festival, performance at half-past one o'clock commenced with, selections from .Haydn's "Creation," in which Mille: Titiens and Messrs. Sims Reeves and Santley took the solos. An " Intermezzo Religioso " was then per formed by the orchestra, and Wesley's "Confitebor" followed. Then Beethoven's Mass in C was given, and Mendelssohn's 42nd Psalm. Besides the afore-mentioned singers, Miss Edith Wynne, Madame Sainton-Dolby, Mr. Vernon Rigby, and Mr. Lewis Thomas took part in the programme. The collections at the service and the per formance amounted to £167 10s. In the evening there was a concert in the Shire Hall. Some of the festival arrangements are pretty freely criticised. THE LAWS OF EXTRADITION'. The select committee appointed to inquire into the state of our treaty relations with foreign Governments regard ing extradition, with a view to the adoption of a more permanent and uniform policy on the subject, have agreed to the following report, which has just been issued:— "That it is desirable that greater facilities should be given than now exist for making arrangements with foreign States for the surrender to them of persons accused of the commission of crimes in the territory of such States respectively, and who have escaped to this country; and for the surrender by them to the Government of the United Kingdom of persons accused of crimes who have escaped to their territories from this country. That the list of crimes which should form the subject of extradition between this country and foreign countries requires to be carefully considered, but might, with advantage to the public interests, be made more comprehensive than the list of crimes enumerated in the only three treaties of extradition now in force between the United Kingdom and other countries, namely, France, the United States, and Denmark. That a general Act of Parliament should be passed, enabling her Majesty, by Order in Council, to declare that persons accused upon - proper and duly authenticated primd facie evidence of the commission of any of the'crimes to be enumerated in such Act, should be surrendered to any foreign Government within whose jurisdiction such crime is alleged to have been committed, and with which arrangements have been made for the extradition of persons accused of crimes : provided that the evidence should, with the exceptions mentioned in 5 and G Vict. cap. 75, s. 2, mid 29 and 20 Vict. cap. 121, be such as would justify the committal of - the offender for trial if the crime had been committed in England. That every arrangement should be required by the Act of Par liament to be terminable by either party, at any time, after the expiration of a moderate period of notice. That it shall be required by the Act of Parliament that every such arrangement should expressly except from the liability to extradition such persons as are accused of crimes which are deemed, by the party to the arrangement of whom the surrender is demanded, to be of a political character ; pro vided that any person accused of a crime which is deemed, by the party to the arrangement of whom the surrender is demanded, to constitute assassination, or an attempt to assassinate, shall not be included in this exception. That copies of every such arrangement, and of the Order in Council which embodies it, shall be laid before either House of Parliament within six weeks of the issue of such order if Parliament be then sitting, or, if it be not then sitting, then within six weeks of the next meeting of Parlia ment. That every such arrangement should contain an express stipulation, that no person surrendered shall he put on his trial, or detained within the State to which he is surrendered, for any crime committed previous to his surrender, other than that on account of which he has been surrendered, without having been previously restored, or having bad an opportunity of returning to the territory of the State making • the surrender. That it be one condition of such arrangements on the part of the United Kingdom, with respect to any prisoner who shall be ordered by competent authority to be surrendered to any foreign Government, that he be remanded to safe custody for a limited period, say fifteen days, before final surrender, and he be informed, by the authority making such order and remand, that it is competent for him to apply, in the meantime, for a writ of habeas corpus, That upon the hearing of the case, on habeas corpus, it shall be open to the accused to ques tion the bona fides of the demand for his extradition, upon the ground that his surrender has, in fact, been sought for political reasons. That all legal proceedings necessary for the surrender of an offender by the United Kingdom, on account of a crime committed in a foreign country, should originate in an application before the principal metro politan police-court. That the Act 29 and 30 Vict., c. 121, which expires this year, making certain provisions with respect to the admission of judicial or official documents, or copies thereof, in evidence against a person accused of crimes, in accordance with the extradition treaties now in force, should be further temporarily continued. POLITICAL HARMONY. The sittings of the National Convention opened, not with prayers, but with musical performances. For instance, in the Moniteur for the year three it is recorded that at the sitting of the 9th of Thermidor the National Institute of Music executed the hymn to Humlnity, and then the chant of the 9th of Thermidor, followed by a dithyrambic hymn cf Itobespierre's Conspiracy. Girard called for the Marseillaise ; after which and the Invocation to Harmony Tallien mounted the tribune to give an account of the Quiberon Expedition. Our new rejormed Parliament will perhaps take the hint ; making Yankee Doodle precede an American debate ; Off She Goes, a discussion on rifled cannon ; Flow on thou Shining River, introduce the budqet.—All the Year Bound. TIIE SUNDAY LIQUOR BlLL.—Labour and Unity, a monthly journal devoted to the interests of working men's societies, believes that, next to the Irish Church, the Sunday Liquor Bill claims the greatest attention of the working classes at the next and following elections. " One thing " (says our contemporary) " is quite certain we can never be a wise or an improving people unless we first become a sober people ; and every man who is a well: wisher to his country and his fellow man should give tho most strenuous opposition to everything which promotes drunkenness or drinking habits in any degree whatever; and in supporting the men who would go into Parliament with the wish and intention to circumscribe this monstrous evil, the first death-blow will be given to one of the greatest curses which ever did or ever can befall the whole human race." SIMPLE METHOD OF TARING HONEY.—Lift up the box with a screw-driver or chisel, sufficient to draw a wire through to cut any comb that may be attached to the crown board of the stock. Then lift the honey-box away, and place it on a fiat board, without troubling about driving the bees out. Carry it away to a cool shed or room. Darken this place slightly, and half an hour after taking the box place it near a window, or similar outlet, and tilt up that side of the box which is near the outlet with a piece of wood the thickness of a black-lead pencil. The bees will rush out, and make direct for the hive. In the course of half an hour turn the box up, and.remove what few bees remain, by whisking them out with a feather. You are, of course, aware that honey should always be taken in bright weather, and. At miti-day.
