ANIMAL MECHANISM. 



this purpose we are about to undertake a new series of ex- 

 periments; some new apparatus is being constructed, which, 

 will soon be finished. 



We hope that we have proved to the reader that nothing 

 is impossible in the analysis of the movements connected with 

 the flight of the bird : he will no doubt be willing to allow 

 that mechanism can always reproduce a movement, the nature 

 of which has been clearly defined.
