THE ZEBUS. 229 
Higyptian and Hindoo faiths respectively ; and 
we might think it possible that the breed 
found its way into the north of England at 
the time when the Egyptian Isis had a 
temple in the city of York, and was wor- 
shipped in Paris and Marseilles. 
‘The little Zebus, or T'zebooes, are small 
varieties of their kind, and the larger ones, 
in the possession of the Society, are removed 
to the farm at Kingston. You may observe 
that these Zebus have the same black, or 
erey and white coat, and hump, as the 
Brahmin Bull; and that small as_ these 
Oxen are, they have still the broad nose, 
which, as well as their horns, distinguishes 
the race from both Deer and Antelopes. 
But let us cross the garden once more, and 
take another look at the Samboo, or Samboo 
Deer, from India, which seems a southern 
variety of the Elk; and when we get home, 
you shall read an interesting account of the 
Stags, or Red Deer, in Scotland, where they 
are still wild. As to the size and figure of 
the Stag, you may have seen that beautiful 
animal ; in many English parks it is kept in 
a state half wild and half tame.”
