ROYAL SURREY ZOOLOGICAL GARDEN&
LAST' WEEK BUT TWO.
EXTRAORDINARY AND NOVEL ATTRACTIONS,
On MONDAY, TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY, and TrtURSDAY,
throughout the Season, the Gardens will open with the following
attractive Novelties :
THE PICTURESQUE GROUNDS—FEEDING OF THE
ANIMALS—UNRIVALLED MENAGERIE.
MODELS of VENICE and LONDON in rho OLDEN TIME
Painted b Damson and Telbtn.
uy tilts unnvaiied production is beyond all
farmer ecedent ; the artist, the amateur, the casual observer
are all struck with its extraordinay beauty and fidelity of delinea-
tion, and are unanimous in pronouncing it the most wonderful ex-
hibition ever witnessed. To view it only as a vehicle for the terrific
display at Dusk is unjust ; it should be seen in the calm stillness of
the quiet Evening, with its Towers and Steeples reflected in the spa-
cious Lake, to be fully appreciated.
Beethoven's celebrated Battle Sinfonia, descriptive of an En..
gagement between the French and English Armies.
The Evening PROMENADE CONCERTS on Mondays, Tues.
days, Wednesdays, and Thursdays conuucted uy Mr. Godfrey,
are uprn a scale more than usual excellence; but words fail in
doing Justice to the awful representation of
THE GREAT FIRE 01. LONDON.
Its fearful characteristics are truthfully pourtrayed, but at the same
time so beautifully blended with the Wonders of the Pyrotechnic
Art, mat delight is predominant over terror; and the Thousands
who nightly crowd the Gardens hail it with acclamations, and admit
that :'outbliy, the Unrivalled Pyrotechnist has achieved a matchless
triumph.
The Gardens and Zoological Collection are in the most perfect
state, cud combining so many and interesting features, are by far
the most attractive lounge in or near the iretro;solis.
Doors open at Nine—Feeding of the Animals at Half-past Four—
Concert at Half-past Five.—Conflagration at Dusk. Admittance,
One Shilling.

LAST WEEK.—THE NAPOLEON MUSEUM.

RENEWAL OF THE SURREY' TOLLS.—The public
hal%) been greatly astonished at the renewal of the
Surrey tolls, notwithstanding the recent destruction of
the gates and bars, and the general supposition that the
tolls were abolished by Act of Parliament. In the
Borough-road, a small wooden toll-house has been
erected, and the old gates have been restored. On the
toll-house there is printed an announcement that, on
Sundays, such charges (mentioning the amounts) will
in future be made for horses and carriages, which, it
appears, are claimable by the Borough, under a local
Act. Tolls aro also still charged at the gate leading
from London-bridge to the Elephant and Castle, which

new trust.
