ZOOLOGY. 



The next singularity which we shall notice in this 

 astonishing quadruped is the great number of spots which 

 amount in the whole to about four hundred. These 

 are of different sizes and mathematical forms such as the 

 square, octagon, circle, oval, pentagon and hexagon almost 

 as if they had been drawn by a mathematician with his 

 compasses and square. 



The public will no doubt consider themselves as 

 much indebted to the liberal generosity of Mr. Bul- 

 xock, in procuring the view of this gigantic animal 

 which is certainly the tallest in the known world. At 

 a considerable expence and exertion, he has obtained it 

 from abroad and finally preserved it here : it will long 

 remain, an example of a variety in the quadruped 

 divisions, though once supposed by sceptical minds to 

 have been wholly invented by fabulous travellers.
