Young Nimrod informs us that the tubercled rhino (mentioned p.240) having seen at Mr. Routledge's depot in Calcutta is not the Javanese or Soonderbund rhinoceros, but is an altogether new and distinct species. One of these beasts has since been shipped for England, and so we may look out for the observations of Mr Frank Buckland and other naturalists on the subject.
