ZOOLOGICAL GARDENS.-The Commissioners of Woods and Forests have, in consequence of an application made to them by the Zoological Society, granted an extensive piece of land, on the south side of Regent's-park, to be added to the Zoological Gardens. It has already been railed, and it will be speedily laid out in walks and shrubberies, and in habitations for the numerous animals for which the Society have at present little room. It is also in contemplation to erect a very superb museum on part of it, and to remove their present one from Bruton-street, Grosvenor-square. For the accommodation of the visitors to these new gardens on the north side, a magnificent swing bridge will be made over the Regent's Canal.

ERUDITION.-The following inscription is copied verbatim from a tablet affixed to the vestry of the parish church of Chatton, in Northumberland :-"This vestry was erected for the accommodation and comfort of the parish of Chatton, by the public bounty of its principal inhabitants, A.D. 1821; signalised on its annals by the Coronation of George IV., on the 19th of July, as the Monarch and Father of Believing Protestant Britain, and the instructive fall of Napoleon Bonaparte on the 5th of May, a miserable exile in the island of St. Helena, and once he would have been Emperor, not only of these envied isles, but of the whole inhabitable world." After which are inscribed the names of the vicar, curate, and churchwardens.

Yet were those scenes of joy renew'd,
Endeard by abscence more,
A pang of grief would still intrude,
To think they'd soon be o'er;
What bliss 'twould be if such sweet flow'rs,
. Would never fade away,
Nor leave in gloom their native bow'rs,
Where once they bloom'd so gay.
