. The cyclopædia of anatomy and physiology. Anatomy; Physiology; Zoology. Preputial glands of the Beaver. a, the prepuce laid open; c, attachment of the prepuce around the neck of the penis; d, body of penis ; c, e, opening of the inferior preputial glands ; f, i, in, stylets passed into the ducts of these glands ; h, I, o, the glands which on the right side are laid open, to show their internal structure ; p, superior large glandular sac; r, ditto of the opposite side, laid open to show its interior; q, opening of these sacs into the preputial canal. several wide pouches (Jig. 284-. e,f, g,h, i, k), situated on each side of the perputial sheath. The structure of these glands is shown in fig. 28G. ; they are arranged in two sets, of which the lower, three in number on each side (k, /,o), are found when opened, as represented on the right hand side of the figure, to be hollow, the walls enclosing their central cavity being made up of numerous small glandular masses, that secrete a thick yellowish fluid. The upper set consists of two capacious ba^s (p), which, when opened, are seen to have their lining membrane (V) deeply rugose. ' The secretion of these pouches is of a deep grey colour, and, if possible, more disagreeable. Female organs of generation. — The ovaria in the female Rodents occupy the same posi- tion us in other Mammifera, and are chiefly. Generative organs nf the female flare. a, vulva; b, vagina; c, orifice of the urethra; d, urethra; e, f, cornua uteri; g, termination of the cornua uteri by two separate orifices (ora itteri\ into which the probes, h, i, have been introduced; k, I, the ovaria; n, o, Fallopian tubes; p, the anus ; q, anal gland; r, cavity situated between the vulva, a, and the rectum, s. them a somewhat racemose appearance. The uterus is always deeply divided into two long cornua, and this division is in some cases carried to such an extent that the body of the uterus constitutes but a very insignificant part of this viscus, and is ev
