Viele Vögel waren hier, einige auf der Suche nach der Nahrung sind, während andere gaben ihre glückliche Gefühle in harmonischen Konzerte vent. Das Haus selbst mit Reben bedeckt war, der eine Masse von blühenden Rosen überbordenden mit Parfüm. Was für ein tolles Fest, die ich in diesem friedlichen Ort hatte! Zum Abendessen gab es einige andere Gäste, darunter die Witwe von Sir Thomas Stanford Raffles, Gouverneur von Java, die meisten Superior Frau, und ihr Gespräch mit Dr. Horsfield war sehr interessant.

. Audubon and his journals [microform]. Birds; Zoology; Oiseaux; Zoologie. THE EUROPEAN JOURNALS 255 and cypresses from America. Many birds were here, some searching for food, while others gave vent to their happy feelings in harmonious concerts. The house itself was covered with vines, the front a mass of blooming roses exuberant with perfume. What a delightful feast I had in this peaceful spot! At dinner there were several other guests, among them the widow of Sir Thomas Stanford Raffles, governor of Java, a most superior woman, and her conversation with Dr. Horsfield was deeply interesting. The doctor is a great zoologist, and has published a fine work on the birds of Java. It was a true/«;«//;/dinner, and therefore I enjoyed it; Sir Robert is at the head of the business of the Carnatic association of India. Friday, June 2. At half/ast seven I reached Sir Thomas Lawrence, and found him writing letters. He received me kindly, and at once examined some of my drawings, repeating frequently, " Very clever, indeed! " From such a man these words mean much. During break- fast, which was simple enough and sans cMtnonie, he asked me many questions about America and about my work. After leaving him I met Mr. Vigors^ by appoint- ment, who said everything possible to encourage me, and told me I would be elected as a foreign member to the Athenaeum. Young Kidd called to see me, and I asked him to come and paint in my room; his youth, simplicity, and cleverness have attached me to him very much. June 18. Is it not strange I should suffer whole weeks to pass without writing down what happens to me? But "[ have felt too dull, and too harassed. On Thursday morning I received a long letter from Mr. Lizars, informing me that his colorers had struck work, and everything was at a stand-still; he requested me to try to find some persons here who would engage in that portion of the business, and he would do his best to bring all right again. This * Nicholas Aylward Vig
