not essential betwe.-ti the mteroee >| i gg ? . k

about ny the e;u aesoive gr.?w;h of those nr. rmedi
atrnctures whidi are obeerved during these so ? ? jive
st?(**s of the egg, Whw we see our hau lay eggs

rapicry. So it i-. with hens, bat not wi uturt! . Eggs
of onr turf lea laid this Spring, nn I oof of which the
young turtles will be bateVed daring t i-i month, or in
rVptembt", have tak.-u seven veins to grow Ut
that state. It takes seven yeail for the oi tri ID e v
of tbe turtle to grow to the condition when it is ready
V; be laid. We have, then fore in that egg a history
a?f seven yean* t?i investigate, changes to itiwestigete
which are ae import nut as the changes winch mko
plec* .n any aniu.al which, after seven years, bis not
yet Completed its growth. The changes, for iiHiin.ee,
which tahe place in the growth of a chi d up to the
period of seven yenu from its birth, ure not mors el
tensive nor structurally more importaal than the
ehanges whi^h take place in Ihe egg of the turt <.
Toeie opens therefoie a new branch of inquiry. Phys>
iology as a leJoBOS has dealt t hit fly with the germ as
eosnething engiatted upon the egg. 1 amnowgoitg
to show that tnis is nut true. Tim egg is the uuim*.i
i'eebf; the ?nibiyo is never separate and distinct frjm
the egg. It is as much the egg a- the butterfly it the
caterpillar. The caterpillar is only the yojng butter
fly?the butterfly which has r...t ye? developed its
wings. These t bangt e are brought about by muSj.
tVatKins of structure wl i.-h are OOLtinuous in the sa:ue
being. The genn is nothing new m the egg; it is only
theegg it*?df sasaming a new condition; it is only
tbe eag atsahT growing into new forms; it is the e^g
wr-elf, tie Constitutive parts of wnio'i present a greater
difference between tbeaaselvea than they d i at en
earlier period. That tf is ehouid be IhUy aradentoo'*,
I must refer to some investigations I made upon the.
egjr of tbe hen and upon the Bggof the ?urtle. I}.,!
perhaps it may be moro easily raced in the ben, and
#0 I will present the fact with referense fo the inter?
nal structure of the egg in the hen. The yolk of a
ten'e egg, when fall grown, presents an internal ma?s
which ie entirely composed of large oil globules, and
there oil globubs OOSBS up iu a sort of channel to near
the surface. [Prof. Agassu tigurel a globe with a
kettle in it, the bottle re presenting th.- internal meat of
rdeegtnoup. eclls and the globe ti e entire yolk.] Ibis
internal maae ha? been .-a led a cavity: but it Is
(Kit a cavity; it is not more limited [separa ed]
from the eubetume of the yolk th*'. the i n ?
ef the young peach bj distinguished from tl e Beab
when they are but one uniform green mass,
fut acrosa tbe yonug peach and vou see that they are
one mass. Now here we have not an internal cavity
bnt a portion of the egg moro oily and the OVter poi
tion in which the albuminaus c-lls arc more numerous,
(ra the bwer side of the egg (always keeping the nose
ed the bottle up) there albiiiunoua oath are larger and
on the upper side sinal er. They are not to serve ae
toed for the embryo; they are an organic rU:n :u:e.
There in as mich structure htre as th re in in any eel
volar p'ant. It his ssuhr not aw Intestinal canal; itbai
only not a heart and blood vessels. It is a cellular
?< tract ure such as we rind for iustanee in tbe funji, iu
the champignon,which are nothink* liut roQsof different
Sonn, containing different ?leinente. in different par'- of
their body. So is the egg Bo Up OBS d of different ele?
ments of different ouality and character. [Pro'essor
stgasres figored cells around the bottle in the globe,
drawing them quite laige in the lower pact around the
t?se of the bottlO| and mach smaller in t'e appet por
t?on; they were a'no larger near the ou'-i le than neai
the bottle.I Now here toward the surface and toward
the base we see that the o Us are no* only sm tl er Ou'
?of a peculiar character. The mteri .r ,s moMoloagi

It was no great merit in one t> knov.
It is only ratuial that the organs which arc

invened a plu'e ia the upper portion of bis gl ibo, rev -
ing it t.n the noae of the bottle,, which hi said repro

It mu*t be obvious tt- n that the egg passed boduy
into a condition when one region of its surft ??? app-ars
snore marked than the other, more limited than it w??
before, and then it is called embryo or ircrui. S->w let
