dlfcovered at b two perfeft Toly pi , whofe Pedicles or 
Branches,^, bd } continued lengthening till the Morn- 
ing of the next Day, being the ioth of the fame 
Month of September : at about a Quarter after Nine 
that Morning, thefe two Polypi, which were then 
at d ’ d \ began alfo each to divide ; fo that at a 
Quarter pad Eleven, there were at d and d four 
eompleat Polypi-, whofe feveral Pedicles di, di, di, di ,

entirely, or in Part.

whofe Polypi have condantly gone on doubling, 
from 2 to 4, from 4 to 8, from 8 to 16, from 16 
to 3 2': after which I have no longer been able to 
count exaftly the Number of the Polypi. 
I have faid enough, to fhew how the Cluders are 
formed, and how fad thefe fmall Animals multiply :
