Stomach, and it's intestines, are also diiFerent ; 
it has no tail; it's bristles are much coarser 
than those of the Wild Boar ; and, lastly, on 
it's back, near the crupper, there is an orifice, 
about three lines broad, and more than an inch 
deep, from which flows, very copiously, an 
ichorous humour, of a very disagreeable smell. 
No other animal has an aperture in this re- 
gion of the body : the Civets, the Badger, and 
the Genet, have the reservoir of their perfume 
under the organs of generation; and the Ca- 
nadian Musk Rat, and the Musk Animal^ 
have it under the belly. The liquor which 
issues from the dorsal aperture of the Mexi- 
can Hog is secreted by a number of large 
glands, which are well described by M. 
Daubentonj and by Dr. Tyson. It is unne- 
cessary to give in detail the observations of 
these acute anatomists. It shall only be re- 
marked, that Dr. Tyson is wrong, in asserting 
that this animal has three stomachs ; or, as 
Mr. Ray expresses it, a gizzard, and two 
stomachs. M. Daubenton has clearly de- 
monstrated, that ithas but one stomach ; divided 
by two strangulationSj which give it the ap- 
pearance of three ; that only one of these 
three bags has a pyloruSj or aperture for allow-
