Both the hippuric and benzoic acids will disappearfrom the urine of over-driven animals. I could notdetect a trace of either in the urine of an ox whichhad been driven up from the country to Smithiieldand killed a few hours after. Neither of these acidswas found by Boussingault in the urine of pigs, evenwhen their food was varied. The large amount ofcarbon appropriated by these animals in their enor-mous accumulations of fat, probably interferes withany considerable excretion of this element by thekidneys. 205.
