Abstract
IN December 1873, when at Batavia, I received from the Russian traveller, Von Miklucho-Maclay, reprints of two articles upon the East Coast of New Guinea and its inhabitants, of which I made a short abstract for NATURE (Feb. 26, 1874), during my voyage from Jara to Atchin. The following is the substance of one of two supplementary papers on the same subject,1 which have been lately sent to me, by Dr. Maclay, from Johore, on the Malay peninsula; which, it would be imagined, should be all the more interesting, as much which is, to say the least, doubtful, has lately been published about New Guinea and its natural productions.
