^ Human Liver appearing glandulous to the Eye. By Mr. John Brown, Sur- 

 geon of St. Thomas s Hospital in Southwarh. Dec. 13, l685. N° 178, p. 1266. 



The size of this liver was not extraordinary, which rather seemed less than 

 usual, but what was very remarkable, it consisted, in its concave, convex, and 

 inward parts, of glands, which, with the vessels, made up the whole substance 

 of it. These glands contained a yellowish ichor, like so many pustules, and 

 was probably part of the bilious humour lodged in them, though otherwise the 

 liver between the gland was of its usual reddish colour. In the gall bladder 

 was found a soft friable stone. -''^ '■' 



Explanation of Jig. 7, pi. 8-— 'N. A A. are the glands in the concave part 

 of the lesser lobe of the liver. B B B the glands in the concave part of the 

 greater lobe of the liver ; which were of different magnitudes ; though in ge- 

 neral they were much less in the lesser, than in the greater. C C C C the inward 

 part of the greater lobe of the liver, as it was divided. D D D D D several 

 black specks, that appeared inserted in those glands, which were probably from 

 the divarications of the vessels, being divided on opening this lobe. E the gall 

 bladder, which was of a greenish colour. F the vena portae tied up, with the 

 ductus biliarius, &cc. G a particular set of glands, lodged between the former 

 and the vena cava. H the vena cava. I part of the ligamentum suspensorium . 



The convex part of the liver was, in every respect, the same with the con- 

 cave part of both lobes, as to the glands here described. 



On the Strength of Memory. By Dr. fVallis. N" 178, p. 1260. 



Upon occasion of a discourse at a meeting of the Philosophical Society at 

 Oxford, March 24, 1 684-5, concerning the advantage which those may have, 

 as to memory and its application, who want their sight. Dr. Wallis confirmed 

 it by this consideration, that even we, who have our eye-sight, can with more 

 advantage apply our memory, in matters of close attention, by night in the 

 dark, when all things are quiet, than by day, when sights and noises are apt to 

 divert our thoughts. And gave instance in the application of his own memory
