Meteobology of the Week. —At Chiswick, from observations during the last twenty-nine years, the average highest and lowest tem> 
peratures of these days are 44.2°, and 34./°, respectively. The greatest heat, 57°, occurred on the 1st, in IS52; and the lowest cold, 13°, 
on the 2nd, in 1631. During the period 110 days were fine, and on 86 rain fell. 
Very recently we recorded a living example of a 
country gardener’s son deservedly elevated for his deeds 
of noble daring and honourable conduct to be the 
associate and the admired of our country’s nobility. It 
is noble and animating to see such examples of the 
gifted son of the poor man elevated upon the pinnacle 
to which he has buffeted his way— 
“ Plough’d to his point against the adverse stream 
and we have this day to place before our readers another 
such example in Dr. John Lindley.
