enjoyed a reputation almost human, a reputa
tion kept up by the print* and drawing* which
formerly placed them almost uniformly in an
???*reet position, and by the trick* which those
brought to Europe were taught. But neither
i- the Asiatic nor the African orang formed for
erect progression. If left to thcmnelve*, they
move on the ground most uwknrdly, doubling
their anterior bands, moving in their advauce

the hands, in this Asiatic, reach nearly to the
els. There is a marked difference between
e skull of this specie* and the crania of Hy-
,h??he! ?? and of tho chimpanzee. The inter-
pariecal crest in pithecus sntyru* is a* highly
developed as it is in tho carnivorous tribe, and
the zygomatic arch is widely expanded; nor
J ure those the only points of resemblance. In
the hoolock and in the chimpanzee the skull is
comparatively smooth aud human on its out
ward surface.
Sumatra and Borneo are the principal lo
calities where the ournug outang ha* been
hitherto found; and tho*e which huve been
brought to Europe have exhibited a consider

one can rend without pain
A party from a brig had, it appears, landed

vated, and there were but few trees; on oye of
these trees they discovered a gigantic animal
They approached, and he came to the ground
They pursued, and he made for another tree ut
sumo distance, presenting to his pursuers a tall
man-like figure covered with a fell of shining
brown hair, moving almost erect with a wad
dling gait, sometime* assisting his progress
with his bands, and sometimes by the impulse
of a bough which he held. On gaining a small
clump, he sprang at a bound to a loftly branch,
and passed from one Umb of the tree to another
with the greatest ease aud alacrity. They felt
that, if the country had been well wooded, he
must, in all probability, have escaped; for he
traveled from tree to tree with the swiftness of
a horse on the ground. Confined a* he was to

that it was very difficult to take aim, and it

him without trouble. The tree nodded to it*

prise, saw him gain another, aud they
obliged to cut down nil tho tree* before they
could bring him to the earth. Even then

confessed that the sight was such as almost to
make them question the nature of the act they
were committing. He lay dead before them,
upward* of six feet in length at the lowest
computation, according to the narrative.
We know not what view their worships of
f the learned societies may take of this transac
tion, for there is no telling how far a zeal for
science may carry its votaries, but to the un
learned it must look rather murderous.
The captain, who furnished Dr. Abel with
the details, stated that the creature wa* a full
