Rhinoceros in Boston

The Rhinoceross now in Boston, is about four feet and a half in length,is
only fifteen months old, and weighs about two thousand pounds. He was
obtained from the Rajah of Benares, about six hundred miles distant from
Calcutta, who parted with him reluctantly to an individual who bought
him out. The well known natural antipathy between this beast and the
elephant, was shown on the passage. &ere was an elephant on board,
which was sick, and he was taken from his place of confinement to move
on deck; but as soon as the rhinoceroe scented him, he became furious and noisy, and the elephant, cowed by his cries, retreated to his cage. It is
e t dth at the latter is always killed or conquered by the rhiuocem, w h w
power ia irresistible, both for attack and defence.
