General View of the Ar-terial System. — From theupper part of the crook of theaorta branches diverge, two ofwhich, bending under the clavi-cles, descend along the arms,taking the name of the brachialarteries; and at the point wherethe aorta descends towards thenavel, other branches divergeright and left, descending alongthe legs, where they# take thename of femoral arteries. Thereare numerous other ramifica-tions, as shown in the generalillustration of the arterial sys-tem, where the names of theprincipal arteries are indicated.(See Observations on the Circula-tion, page 23 of this book.)

Although itwould be impossible to give, in a work like the present, figures which wouldconvey any notion of the local distribution of the blood-vessels through thebody, other than the general representation of the arterial system given inPig. 314, it may, nevertheless, be interesting to readers who are not professionallymedical, to see the wonderful structure of the vascular system in some of theprincipal parts of the human economy. Blood-vessels or the Mesentery.—In Fig. 328 are represented the trunk(1) and the innumerable ramifications and anastomoses (2, 3, 4, 5) ot the arterywhich spreads over the mesentery, a membranous structure connected witathe intestines.
