THE PICTURESQUE GROUNDS-FEEDING OF THE
ANIMALS-UNRIVALLED MENAGERIE.

MODELS of VENICE and LONDON in the OLDEN TIME,
Painted by Danson and Telbtn.
The sensation caused by this unrivalled pro.luction is beyond VI
fowler knecedent ; the artist, the amateur, the casual observer
are all struck with its extraordinay beauty and fidelity of delinea-
tion....td re unanimous in prohouncing 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 seenin the calm stillness of
the quiet Evening, with its Towers and Steeples reflected in the spa-
cious Lake, to be fully appreciated.
The Evening PROMENADE CONCERTS on Mon lays, Tues-
days, Wednesdays, and Thursdays cont.ucted uy Mr. Godfrey.
are up n a scale of more than usual excellence; ',tit words fail In
doing justice to the awful representation of
THE GREAT FIRE OF LONDON.

Its fearful •:k iracteristics are truthfully pourtrayed, but at the same
time so beautifully blended with the Wonders of the Pyrotechnic
Art, next delight is predominant over terror; and the Thousands
who nightly crowd the Gardens hail it with acclamations, and admit
that :2outliby, ..he Unrivalled Pyrotechnist has achieved a matchless
triumph.
The Widens and Zoological Collection are in the most perfect
state, and combining so many and interesting features, are by far
the most atirs,:tive lounge in or near the iretro,:oli4.
Doors open at Nine—Feeding of the Animals at Half-past Four—
Concert at Half-past Five.—Conflagration at Dusk. Admittance,

TO CORRESPONDENTS.
The details given in a letter by a Correspondent, relative
to a police case heard 2nd decided on the 15th of list
month, are no doubt of a very painful character, Ind
mug excite general sympathy for the unfortuna! e
woman, but it is difficult to give advice in such mattes s.

party when he is released from prison, let her apper r
before a magistrate and make oath to the fact, and I a

strange to say, is of very common occurrence, while
many persons are transported for much smaller crimes.
