Aut the buildings in the Zoological Gar- 
den reflect great credit upon the taste of. 
Mr. Decimus Burton their designer: the 
Aviary for Small Birds is the most elegant, 
as well as most extensive of the whole. In 
passing the Western division of that Aviary 
(appropriated to Foreign Birds) the beauty

ridge, from Sumatra, caught, as usual, the 
attention of the party; and the Chinese 
Starling reminded a friend who was with 
them, of an extraordinary battle, among two 
flocks of English Starlings, of which he had 
occasion to be witness.*
