In this case they are not arranged end to end in lines, but their attenuated extremities are interposed between the lateral surfaces of the cells situated above and below them; while the parenchyma cells, if, as is usual, they are arranged in lines, stand one upon another with flattened ends, their cavities

The route he proposed to take wasdifferent from that pursued in his former voy-ages.

This dependence of the structure of one cell upon that of its neighbours, becomes the more piominent the more the reticulated foimation prevails in the secondary membranes, and it disappeais in propor- tion as the spkal structure becomes more distinctly evident. Therefore where the pits are scattered irregularly they correspond accurately in form and position

Intercellular passages occur mostly between parencliymatous cells; they are frequently absent from prosenchyma, or when pre- sent, are, at least, very narrow. They are closed in most places at the surface of the plant, since the parenchymatous cells which form the outermost layer of the plant are, in general, and in all parts growing under ground or in water without exception, accurately in contact at their angles ; on the other hand, on most organs ex- posed to the a
