Whence it may be reafonably inferred, that the mlnute Bodies or Smell, and the contexturc of the olfaéiory Organ have an efpecialcommenfiiration; and the Efliuxes of Bodies making Appulfes upon the Skin of various parts of the Face and Body, and the Membrane of the Tongue make no imprefli. on upon them' becaufe the Steams of Smell hold no proportion in Figure,and Magnitude with the {mall Pores of the faid parts. But the Atomcs of Smell fireaming out of various things, do incorporate with [he Air,.and being received into the Noflrils, produce the Senfiition of Smelling; as the {mall odorous Bodies do agree in {hape and fize with the minute Meatm- of the olfaé‘tory nervous Fibrils, befetting the Membrane, lining the infide of the Nofirils. The variety of Smells confif'ting of different effluxes of Bodies, are produced by the Figures of the olfafiory Objcéi, of which fome are round and fmoothnnaking gentle Appulfes upon the pores of the nervous Fibrils, whence fweet and plcafant Smells arife, and others are more or lefs unplealant, as confifting oi various kinds of Angles, which do more or lefs grate upon the Mean" ot'olfaétory Filaments, furnifhing the inward Filme of the Noflrils. Hence an account may be given,why the fame Smells are pleafant to fome perfons, and unpleafant to others, as they have different temperaments, and olfactory Organs, affefied with Pores of feveral configurations.
