Some days ago we laid before our Readers Come inteieflinfi particulars refpeding this fcirnce, ea traded from the Philofophical Magazine for No vember. In the Number for December of the fame work, ju a publithed, we find the following curious article on the fame fubjed " Pub, Oft. z 4. " C. Asyut!, a native of Italy, and nephew of the celebrated GALVAN I, to whom we are indebted for the difcovery of that ele.lricity called the Cal ',rank, repeated. a few day% ago, in the pretence of the Commillioners of the National Inilitute, sand yeilerday at the Oratoire, in preknee of the Gal. ',attic Society, the principal experiments, in con fequence of which he afferts with j . ullice, that the ideas of his uncle refpeeing animal eleericity ought not to be entirely rejeeted, to adopt, exclu• finely, thofe of Volta, refpefling metallic eledri city. It refults, indeed, from the experiments of C. ALDINS, that there is an animal pile tied an animal circle, as there is a metallic pile and metal lic circle. " The experiments of which we were witnefres, and which prove his opinion in a rigorous manner .ire as follow .- 1. The fciatic nerves of a frog being laid bare, as is ufually done for fubje/ling them to the allion of the arming and metallic circle, be con tented himfelf with bringing together and putting in contaet the macular parts of the thighs and paws of the frog, with the uncovered nerves, and contraftions of the animal, tc, , k place As in the uflial Galvanic experiment. 2d. He took the frog by the paws, holding it with one hand by the mufcular parts, making the nerves hang down ; he touched with a finger of the other hand the nerves thus fuftiended, and the contraaions took place as by the metallic circle and Galvanic apparatus. " 3d. Fot the third expitiment be made bas iffillant hold the frog by the paws, or by the muf ctilar parts, applied his finger to the nertes, with. out giving his hand to the affillant, and the con tra tions did not take place. He then gave his hand to the affiftant, and having applied a finger of the other hand to the nerves, the contra lions took place as in the other expe riments. Thefe ex. petiments were repeated on leveret frogs. "In the lea place feveral experhnents were made on the head of a huge dog, feparated from the trunk, which bad no relation either to the animal circle or pile ; but afterwards they took one of the above frogs, and by putting a fingei into the Epinal marrow of the dog, prefenting with the other hand the nerves of the frog to one of the mufcles of the trunk of the dog, the contraelions of the frog took place as with the Galvanic ap paratus, which, according to the obferiations of the author, leavei.no doubt refpeeting the exill ence of the animal circle and pile. There inge nious experiments will, doubtlets, furnifh to their modell and learned anther, a multitude of other ideas on the animal economy, particularly re fpeaing the nervous fluid, Ike. which I leave his the care and glory to explain. 44 For my part, I came out from thee experi ments charmed and tranfported with admiration at the fimplicity of the means which nature em ploys in its phenomena, that feem to us the moll complex. It appears to me proved, that to per form a prodigious number of its operations, it con tents itielf with one elearic fluid, which it pots in motion at the furface and in the interior of the earth, by a kind of Galvanic piles, which produce, as I have explained in my leaures, a great nom ber of the phenomena of the animal and vegetable kingdom, and that it bas employed the fame agent in the animal kingdom, by organising the nerves find mufcles as Galvanic piles, to execute &oft of the operations of the animal life by the fame agent, and by means of thefe fubftances, the nerves and the ankles, which it has organifed in fuch a manner, that they difcharge, in regard to each other, the fame funaions as the different metals, the contaa of which excites a permanent current of the elearic fluid, which is the moil valuable difcovery we are indebted for to the pile of Volta. _ _ _ _ " It had hitherto been tried without faeces. to excite a permanent elearic current, without frie. tiob, and the machine of Meaux did not accom. plait this end in a fatitfaaory manner. "This permanence of the elearic fluid, for which we are indebted to the Vukaic pile, is a difcovery then no lefs admirable, perhaps, than that of Cl. ti Len ALDINI j and both have given to the natural fciences a ilimulus which will alb:ma future ages if the refults be follow ed, as there is no ?carat to doubt.
