Father Of Microscopy.

Father of scientific microscopy is the
title given by modern scientists to An
thony van Leeuwenhoek. native of
Delft in Holland. where he died on
August &c, lT23. Although without
the advantages of a liberal education,
Leeuwenhoek was a microscopic OF
remarkable ability, and many impor-
tant discoveries were made by him,
the chief being undoubtedly that OF
the capillary circulation of the blood.
He first sought TO discern this in the
comb of a young cock, the ear Of a
white rabbit. and the membrane Of a
bats wing. and failed. but achieved
success with the tall of a newly
Matched tadpole, in which. he says. Il
could distinctly perceive the whole
circuit of the blood in its passage to
the extremltles of the vessels and its
return towards the heart"
