The 1882 Series of Experiments. 



The following tables exhibit the whole of the results of the obser- 

 vations made during these experiments ; for convenience of reference 

 I have designated them by letters, as follows : — 



Table A. — Quantity, specific gravity, and chemical composition of 

 the urine. 



Table B. — The time of passing, quantity, and composition of the 



faeces. 



Table G. — The total daily discharge of nitrogen by urine and fasces. 



This table requires a brief explanation. In order to distribute the 

 faeces as evenly as possible over the experiment, which, as I have 

 explained before, is very difficult to do satisfactorily, I have assumed, 

 as I have endeavoured to show I have some right to assume, that 

 generally speaking each quantity of faeces represents a day. On this
