Glanders in the lungs of the horse assumes a great variety 
of anatomical features, according to the mode of evolution of 
the lesions. While the acute forms are manifested by exten¬ 
sive and diffused alterations, similar to those attending pur¬ 
ulent infection, those of a chronic nature are essentially 
characterized by diminutive and limited neoformations of a 
tuberculous appearance. 
The works which have been devoted to the special study 
of the lesions of acute glanders , are but few in number. J. 
Renault* has shown that they consist of the presence of 
confluent centers of pneumonia, analogous to those of pyemic 
infection. The alveoli are filled with white globules ; the en¬ 
dothelium of the vesicles is no longer present; the alveolar 
walls are infiltrated with embryonic cells; atranslucid sheath,
