The Doctor's treatment of this intricate, partially undiscovered, and in s measure disputed territory, was hie!) intereeting and instinctive_ Ile opened by explaining what is meant by -class,:/ cation— a grouping together of certain plants or animals according to their peculiarities, for the greater convenience of studying them. in the Animal kingdom. the classification of Carer war, be said, generallyiadopteil—n, Ireriebrata, ",,Moliusea, Artioulata. audßadiata To these treed howeve. —each of which was briefly defined by the brinier—there was another elan. which sem t natu ralists included in the animal kingdom, entitled the Pro tozoa, hut which Ouvier rejected. ega•siz, he said, co incided with envier in this opinion, sad regarded the .class of Proioroor as mule nn of a mixture of particles belonging to the vegetable kingdom, worm-like animal alike, and eggs of small eel nah, formerly what were called zoophytes by the older naturalilts.] I Tim lecturer was himself inclined t include this class In the anima /kingoom, notwithstanding the high authorl. tis, quoted to the contrary. The word Protozoa was de ricei from two Greek words, prolos. ficst, and zoos, an •animal. To simplify this division, it IVAillhdivided by the lecturer into these branthes! the Motors& Minya -da (meaning Groot-footed,) porifera—i. e., spongy—and client°, which were prelim:vane, or many-stomached. The discussion of certain broad lives of eildinetiOtt - Wing titiWCllll the vegetabd: anti 1113111141 ilingoollll3 WWI then entered upon.

In this specimen feet itself we caw how elosely allied and interwoven these Lao great divisions of nature were. The mere presence of motion is no longer regarded as a proof of animal lit., in conArmaklon of which the lectures instanced a member of plants exhibiting this characteristic. As au offset to the fact that, in the main. plants con ennse carbonic acid, and evolve oxygen, and animals rice 41141..40., we bad the very opmdte exhibited in not a few in-tante', in which the habits of plants coincide exactly with those of animals in this particular, among which were all the fungus or toadstool class, and some of the flowering plants, mainly those of the parasitic tribe; and, In fact, certain tarts of the flowers of all plants' gave out Oxygen. The Phyrozoa or plant-like animals were exhibited is diagrams, the reproleutallax_ll wing giveu Be gra etly meg• nifled usder a microscope. The magaifying power brought to bear in securing these Illustrations may be dnferred from the fact that representations of an imalcalat, as larke as a ether dollar, were Amu, of which more than bathe thousand Int/lions are contained in a single drop of stagnant water in which decaying vegetab-e matter was deposited.
