Anatomists, consequently, who, by the term air-cell, meant simply the ultimate termination of a bronchial tube; andpathologists, who regarded bronchitis of the terminal extremities ofthose tubes and pneumonia as essentially alike, were nearer the truththan was generally admitted. The researches of Mr. Eainey led himto conclude—in opposition to Dr. Addison,—that the fa^us, prior tothe act of respiration, possesses fully formed air-cells, which are alsosurrounded by capillary plexuses.
