In this disease the urine is already neutral or alkaline whensecreted in the kidneys. The condition is quite distinct from that of thealkaline decomposition of the urine in the bladder, which is due to localcauses, and in which the large clear crystals of the ammonio-magnesic ortriple phosphates are seen. Stones may be classified, according to the salts predominating in theircomposition, as follows: (1) Uric acid and acid urates ; (2^ Oxalate of lime; (3) Phosphatic; (4) Cystine. Stones of indigo, urostealith, and xanthin have
