Fig. most plausible view regarding tlie lymphatics to be:—that they ariseby extremely fine roots in the substance of the membranes and areolar tissue, and in the parenchyma oforgans, where they appear con-tinuous with the final arterialramifications;—as it fiequentlyhappens, that an injection sentinto an artery passes into thelymphatics of the part to whiti*iit is distributed. By some, theyare described as commencing ei-ther in closely meshed networks,interspersed among the bloodves-sels of the several tissues, or elsein pointed closed tubes or pro-cesses, as shown in the marginalfigure of the lymph and blood-vessels in a part of the tail of thetadpole;—the bloodvessels beingdenoted by the corpuscles inthem. In this state, many of theextremities of the lymphatics ap-pear to communicate with pointedor star-shaped cells; but this, ac-cordins; to Messrs.
