These foramina if examined by a microscope will be found to be the open extremities of minute Bronchial tubes; it would be a mistake, however, to suppose that a considerable number compara= =tively of the Bronchial tubes terminate thus by open mouths on the surface of the lungs<s>,<\s> and of the tubules; <s>by far<\s> the great majority of the terminal Bronchial tubes end by plunging into the leaflets, which constitute the ultimate <s>Bronchial<\s> Pulmonary tissue, but some of the make their appearance on the outer and on the interlobular surfaces in the manner described, studding those surfaces at tolerably regular intervals with foramina, and these foramina are in communication by means of the tubular pas= =sages in the subpleural cellular tissue, with the longitudinal channels, which are found in the substance of the Pleura. The blood vessels derived from the pulmonary arteries and veins, which ramify in the Pleura are almost entirely distributed around the walls of these longitu= =dinal channels. Without doubt these longitudinal channels are rudimental repre=
