would have left one or two impressions
upon his memory Intense fear or deep
hatred ; but this animal only evinced
surprise.
I had made uu mv mind what to do
If lie meant lighting, hut I would not
provoke him. "I'eace or war, old fel

stood very square on Ills thick legs,
like a massive billiard-table firm,
bi-o.id, sturdy not moving an Inch. I
saw tlie while of his eyes, Ills great
tu-ks nnd broad teeth, fit to tear up and
lend u tree, his white hornjre.idy to rip
open .i hundred elephants If lliey stood

I could see distinctly uny movement of

A CI.OSKU ACil.'AINTANt'i:.
I sccarchcd the treo well, but found
nothing obnoxious. I was rather In-
tent upon my taik and was silent,
1 which made my new friend unea.y.
Any notison.-e 1 talked, strangely
I enough seemed to please tho huge beast,
, but If 1 cea.cil for a moment he grunted
! and impatiently stumped with one of
his forefeet till the earth vibrated, and
i his face turned upwards revealing Iho
' whole flout of hi. hum. Presently I
got down. As I descended, my friend's
' sat.,tctiiin was great.
1 went down to offer him i-oinu bis
cuit the attention -unicd to nlrasc
him mightily not so much, I thought
I for llu' Mike of tlm liiead as having mo
1 near him. As I offered the frangapani
he rubbed his no.e again.t my head
many times, till 1 put il Inside his
thick lip., when he eiiincheil it ill a
style- that would havelnuclied (lie heart
of a tooth!cs Nillnr. 1 ale more slowly;
he got three shares out of four. I went
up for mole, stud to laku come, for 1
was lliii.ly, but Impatience diew mo
down very soon. 1 gave him the best
half of three bi.cults a small supply
forsuch n garri.on as hh interior; but
my stock- was getting low, and lie
might have thought them dry and In
sipid; but all his deslro appeared to bo
to have me mar him or to hear my
voice talking non.-en.o. Finding that
to sty something, however absurd, was
needful to his pe.iee,I thought of'killing
two birds with ouu stone," and that, as
I had given him folly enough, lie-should
have Mime thing better. I took a hook
frniu my knap.ack nud lead aloud, giv
ing any dialogue in n conversational
tone, nnd I can a..uro Mr. Charles
Dickens, or whom eNu it may or may
iiot;coiiceru,thiit "l'ickwick"never met
with a moro attentive or apparently
gMtilleil li.tener tlian"(.'aptaln Uliino,"
as 1 called my friend,
I cca.cd reading to have a smoke, 1
had not indulged In twenty wlillls
when Captain ltliluo became as Impa
tient as tlio gods of a gallery of a
London theatre. Ho grunted no reply;
gi uiited again, louder nud repeatedly
no notice taken; giunteil very loud
and siiiiiiipc.il furiou-ly amu result ;
then, vt's, by all the gods of all tho
theatres both sides of tlio water, he
fairly wlil-tled, pretty much as they do
when they want "wio'mic," only a hun
dred time, louder. My ears were pierc
ed. "What tlie devil do you iiiako that
lioHo for'." I Hiked, and then c.imo
the low, guttural murmur, eoniparti
lively, Indicating hh Joy that I wits
neither dead or. spieclile.-.. I began to
fancy 1 should haven regular night of
talking, and to feel no pleiiMiru lu tho
prospect. For the prc-ent 1 would Illl
mor him -he might grow sleepy nr
hungry .o I kept up a desultory III"
of arrunt nonsense, between pulls ns
"few and far between" as ho would let
me, ami ho was tolerably at ease.
1 had tilled ami newly smoked out
my mi ersihaiim tho third tlnie,when 1
I ii 1 ii 1 1 tl whether his mamma was
nware of Ids not being at homo? He
was replying In his own murmuring
way, when n row began on thu eastern
lake. Trombones, big drums, thunder,
shrill Hies, uonuey untying, bagpipes,
sharpening of saws, roaring of bulls,
, dylng'groaiis nnd squeaking of unoiled
curt wheels, nil nud sundry, and much
more, in a 'Dutch Medley,' entranced
thu ear. Tho captain turned Ids car to
wards thu wutt'r. and looked up lo mo
with an I kimw-nll-ubout itsortofnlr.
It was plain such rows weie not new to
him; he look thu matter philosophical
ly. Presently came' moro noise, nml
moro still ; moro sounds lu gi eater vari
ety nnd violence; horrors accumulated
fast ami furious. Over thu bank, from
into lake to another, rushed dense mass
os of saurlaus, hippopotami nlul rhino.
cerosi, thickly massed till they became
tightly wedged, nil lighting for prece
dence, roaring, plunging, tearing each
other madly, thu latter goiiug and ills
emboweling tho nearest to them, and
quite reckless whether they were of
their own species or not. Herpents long
and large, bounded through the trees
like lightning, hissing hoarsely ns they
went. The birds of night and day were
alike aroused.
At length tho narrow bunk was eiulto
blocked, thoilciiso mass of hugo beasts
swayed to ami fro, ono or moro occa
xlouully fulling over. '(.'apt. ltliluo
now thought It time to interfere ; his
head ami horn went up and down as a
hull moves when hu thinks evil. lie
could see mo plainly, by tlio light of
my lamp as I sat smoking, nnd looking
nt thu light; his looks said, 'you'll seo
smiii! fun presently,' hut he uttered no
sound, Ilu went to work silently, lu
till cases I observed ho reserved Ills
rumpetlngs till victory was achieved.
1 r.nher liked Hint; for silent dogs bite
deepest. Klovntltig mul depressing hts
head and his boll ropo tall, with its lit
tlo tassel tit for a night cap at tho end
of It, ho went oil' deliberately as qofore
butstwrn determination in every step.
If those in his way had not inado their
wills, their last opportunity was gone.
Ills horn made forcible eiitrlcslnto ma
ny Interiors ns lie plowed his way
through tho mass, casting bodies for
wards, backwards, sideways and all
ways, clearing tho path ns If an Irish
man 'to tho manor born' and 'Kuugh-a-biillagh'
was hts family. Tho lightest
went over his head and back sonio
yards behind him, many into tho lake
each sldo ; In threo minutes the bank
was freed of nil tho living ; only tho
dead encumbered It. Then ho plunged
Into the eastern lake, after the scudding
legion beforo him, to tho seat of war.
As the tide of battle surged near or
remote,tho horrible sounds Increased or
diminished. I took tho straps off my
knapsack and haversack, passe'd them
round tho branch nnd my own body, se
curely buckling them. My roer was
laid alongside me, tho inuzzlo towards
my feet, everything ready to my hands
In the event of danger, and after com
mending myself to the care of Him
who was ns much with mo In thosu
wilds as in tho temple, I was asleep In
two minutes.
At sunrise my leviathan friend had
not put in au appearance, I was rather
anxious, fori wished to know why he
sought me. I was sure ho had somo
reason for doing so. As I took eoffeo I
saw his head upon thu lake, llkoasmall
boat with ono mast nnd no sail, the ri
sing protuberance of his hind quarters
like another boat 'in low.' Hu swam
slowly till tho water, or ink, shoaled,
then Iiu limped to the bank, up which
ho got with dlflleulty, and walked ns If
he had four wooden legs without nnk
les or kneo joints, bonding forth sounds
which I thought denoted gladness to
seo m. 1 saluted him with a volley of
nonsense ns ho approached me. I had
gone down to meet him ho seemed in
great pain, but ns pleased us If he bad
found a fortune. Ho was very demon
stratlve, and, being wet, might have
been dispensed with ; but ho thought
otherwise, nnd his sincerity could not
beouestioned. I offered biscuit, but of
that he took no notice; ho rubbed his
head against my hand, nnd placed his
face to my chest. I fancy no animal
can be more clumsy than a rhinoceros
nml, though ho was less so than the an
imals exhibited under that uainuin Kit
rope, his imitations of the movements
of a lively lapdog were highly ludi
crous, but what ho wanted in graco he
mado up in energy, nud, in displaying
it, seemed to forget his pain.
J now saw that ho was not so old ns I
took him, I had seen him at night im
perfectly, llo was but Just at maturity,
and a line specimen of his race, being
what I, for want of a better term, call
the rhinoceros mnJor,clas?ing the inferi
or itnlnial ns tho rhinoceros minor. Jn
height he towered high above thu ordi
nary animals I had seen ho often, which
I liadcha.ed,and been cha-ed by.many
a time. Subsequently a tupo mea.uro
showed he was fully !) feet !1 Inches high
ut the shoulder, at the quarters ten feet
three inches. His proportions wcro
good. Ho had not the distended .stom
ach which is seen In the inferior beast
generally. The peculiar fulds of tho
massive and ponderous hide from the
quarter to thu shoulder,gave an appear
ance, at a distance, of a large 'saddle
cloth; the folds at thu bottom hud a
sort of edge, which gavu it a llnished
and ornamental appearance till huc.iino
near, when it was seen that the whole
was his natural covering. Tho edgu
was darker than tlio centre within. All ; sion of tho eyu will guide them more Wu aro obliged to Inform our corres

that, and it was so plainly depicted
that 1 could have mi doubt upon the

I tib-crved that among all its demon

fondness, ho seemed very stiff nml in
