BATAVIA

BUITEN ZORG.

The usual residence of the Governor-General is at Buitenzorg, at a distance of a little more than one hour by railway from Batavia. The population of Buitenzorg numbers about 18,000, of whom 1,400 are Europeans. The botanical gardens near the palace of the Governor-General were made in 1817, and are well known not only for their beautiful arrangement but especially for the great services rendered to science and agriculture under the management of the eminent directors Teysmann, Dr. Scheffer, and Dr. Treub. All experiments for the introduction of exotic plants into Netherlands India are made here, with the result that many useful plants from foreign countries are reared and flourish in Java as in their native soil.
