The author states the subject of this lecture to be, “an inquiry into the mode by which the propagation of the species is carried on in the common oyster, and the large fresh-water muscle.” After noticing the agreement of these animals, in the circumstance of their ova becoming the nuclei on which pearls are formed, he observes that they disagree in the process gone through before the young is completely formed. The mode of propagation of the oyster he regards as more simple than that of many plants; and the processes, as gone through in much shorter time.
