a Male and a Female Dromedary. 11 



within which was a second, quite distinct from the first, very 

 delicate, villous on the inner surface and filled with serum. 



Gall-bladder wanting. In the female the lensth of the 

 duct external to the liver, was three and one half inches. 

 Opening into the intestine eleven inches from the pylorus, 

 without a valve, and very little obhque ; being cut open, it 

 measured transversely, to a small extent at this part, eight 

 lines, but just after receiving the pancreatic duct, it was con- 

 tracted to two. In the male it measured transversely, with- 

 out being cut open, three lines before and four lines after re- 

 ceiving the pancreatic duct. 



The Pancreas consisted of small, flattened lobules, of a 

 dull pink color, loosely connected and intermixed with a great 

 abundance of fat. It was twelve inches long in the male, 

 eighteen in the female, and for the most part from three 

 fourths to one and a half inches wide, there being a second 

 lobe arising from near the head of the first. The duct, in 

 the female, measured two lines across in the body of the 

 organ, when cut open, and terminated in the hepatic duct, 

 two inches from the opening of this last into the intestine. 



The Spleen was a thin, flattened organ, of a crescentic 

 form, the convexity being towards the abdomen ; it adhered 

 to a very small extent to the stomach, and extended into the 

 left iliac fossa ; color dark red, and texture coarse. In the fe- 

 male it was twentytwo and a half inches long, from four to 

 five inches wide, and three-fourths of an inch thick. 



The Kidneys were very regulsir in their form, somewhat 

 rounded, and measured seven inches long, from three and a 

 half to five inches wide, and about three inches thick. Tu- 

 bular portion single, and terminated in an uniform, concave 

 surface, opposite to the centre of which was the opening 

 of the ureter. 



Bladder of the female about the size of a common orange, 

 and empty ; mucous membrane somewhat rugous ; muscular 

 coat thin. — Urethra three and two-thirds inches in length ; 

 transversely, one inch at neck of bladder, one and a half inches 

 midway, and seven lines at opening in vagina. Well marked, 

 dense, longitudinal rugas on whole length of inner surface,
