It represents, on amagnified scale, six lobules of the liver, and was made from a drawingunder the microscope of a section of the liver of a cat, partially injectedthrough the portal vein, and also through the hepatic. Mr. Kiernau has deduced interesting patliological inferences fromthe anatomical arrangement of the liver which he conceives to exist; Fie?. 168. Fig.
