innominata. He dissected the left side of the canal and bladder, and the sec- 

 tion of these parts gave him fig. 4, pi. 10, the explanation of which is as 

 follows : 



A represents the glans; b an elbow, which the ligamentum suspensorium 

 causes the penis to make ; c folds, or wrinkles, of the bulb or of the gulf of 

 the urethra; d the entry or straits of the prostate; e the gulf of the prostate, 

 or the verumontanum; f elbow, or straits of the entry into the bladder; g a 

 section of a portion of the bladder; h a section of the pubis; i the root of the 

 left corpus cavernosum cut through. 



2. He injected another subject with very thick glue, entirely filling the 

 bladder with it through the canal of the urethra, till it was somewhat stretched. 

 He let this injection remain till the next day, and then found it solid and elastic. 

 He cut the parts round it, as he had done in the preceding subject; and after- 

 wards he made an exact division of the injection: he put one half of it on pa- 

 per, in order to have its shape exactly ; and thus he obtained fig. 5, having 

 added, in pricked lines, a pretty exact section of the adjacent parts. 



A represents a section of the bladder; b a section of the pubes; c the cavity 

 of the abdomen; d the peritonaeum; e the integuments of the abdomen; p 

 the space between the pubes and the peritonaeum, taken up by the cellular mem- 

 brane, being the place of the incision in the high operation of lithotomy; g 

 the rectum; h the glans; i the corpus cavernosum ; k the urethra; l the elbow 

 of the ligamentum suspensorium ; m the bulb or gulf of the urethra ; n the 

 straits and elbow at the entry of the gulf of the prostate; o the gulf of the 

 prostate; ppp sort of elbows, or blind cavities, found in it; a the straits of 

 the entry into the bladder. 



Remarks on the Weather, and accompanying three Synoptical Tables of Meteoro- 

 logical Observations for 14 Years, viz. from 1726 to 1739, both inclusive. 

 By Geo. Lynn, Esq. N° 460, p. 686. 



Mr. Lynn having, for 14 years, kept a constant register of the altitudes of 

 the barometer and thermometer, the quantity of rain, the course of the winds, 

 &c. the first 5 years of which have been already communicated to the Royal 

 Society. He now sends the remaining Q years at large, ending Dec. 1739, in 

 the same method as formerly. But, believing it would be of good use, both 

 here and abroad, if the mean heights of the barometer, thermometer, and 

 quantity of rain in every month of the whole 14 years, with the collateral 

 means, both of the months and years, were brought all into one view together, 

 he has ranged them accordingly in a small table. On the whole it appears,
