We have tried to show that they are not instruments, but indicationsâthat they are no more the producers of the vital phenomena, than the shells scattered in orderly lines along the sea-beach are the instruments by which the gravita- tive force of the moon acts upon the ocean. Like these, the cells mark only where the vital tides have been, and how they have acted. < m. " Again, we have failed to discover any satisfac- tory evidence that the endoplast, once formed, exercises any attractive, metamorphic, or metabolic force upon the periplast; and we have therefore maintained the broad doctrine established by Wolff, that the vital phenomena are not necessarily pre- ceded by organisation, nor are in any way the result or aflfect of formed parts, but that the faculty of.
