We should now proceed to examine the stnlefstructure of ture of the testicle, as a eland. The Cord is the Cord.., '. & composed of arteries, veins, absorbents, and tee excretory duct of the testicle,---which are all bound together, by cellular membrane and the fibres of the Cremaster. The Spermatic Artery being very small, is the most difficult to discover. The veins are very numerous, and easily seen. The manner of showing the absorbents will be described presently. As the Vas »berens feels like a piece of whip-cord, compared to the other parts, there will be no difficulty in finding it." The cord should now be cut through, at Hs exit from the abdominal canal. Before we attempt to demonstrate the course of the vessels which convey the semen, we should inject some vas Deferens mercury into the vas deferens. The quicksilver will very seldom pass into the tubuli testis, but will generally reach as far as the rete testis. After the injection is made, we may remove all the parts of the cord, except the vas deferens.
