Whether there is any interchange between the bloodof the capillaries in the gland by exudation or exosniose and the lymph of thesmaller lymphatic vessels, is mere matter of Conjecture, unsupported as yet bynny results of immediate ABSORBENTS and lymphatics. {From Qualn and Wilson,) Nns. 1,1, the under surface of the liver; 2, the gall-bladder- 3, the ductuscommunis cholcdochus; 4, the portal vein; 5, the hepatic artery; 6, the i 37 G HANDBOOK OF HYDROPATHY. descending portion of the duodenum; 7, the pancreas; 8, the lower part ofthe spleen projecting below the great end of the stomach; 9, the stomach;10, the superior mesenteric artery and vein resting upon the transverse portionof the duodenum; 11, the ascending colon; 12, the mesentery; 13, the smallintestines; 14, the layer of peritoneum which connects the descending colon tothe posterior wall of the abdomen; 15, the descending colon; 16, the sigmoidflexure; 17, the rectum. o, a group of lymphatics from the right lobe of the liver, passing to itsposterior border to terminate in the commencement of the thoracic duct;b, b, a second group from the gall-bladder and middle portion of the liver,proceeding along the course of the hepatic vessels between the layersof
