iect 10 this noise When etberlzed, are also ena-
bled 10 hear the beatings Of the pulse whenever
they Law their heads upon the pillow. lying upon
the ear. and thus shutting off all external sounds
from that ear. This condition pertains TO about
20 per cent. of those Of whom have inquired
among my patients, during my Investigations
upon this subject, and have never known 1t 10
vary. All who do not hear these sosnds, never
hear their hearts beat under the above circum-
stances.
This hearing Of the pulsation is dependent upon
the anatomical construction OF the internal ear.
In some, the internal carotid artery is located so
near to the tympanu'n, or drum OF the ear, as TO
be reached aud pressed upon by that membrane,
whenever the air is confined within the more ex-
ternal chamber; in others, the artery is too re.
mote to be affected by this means. This TACT led
me to suppose at first, that the noise heard when
etherized was the pulse alone bat the rapidity
OF the beats, being so much greater tnan any
healthy pulse seems to forbid this conclusion, and
connect with il the idea of external noises possess
ing considerable influence in this phenomena
Let the causes be what they may, such are the
facts.
Mr.. F.. a dentist Of good fame, now estab
lshed in Paris, brought his wife TO me on the eve
of their leaving their native country, Tor the pur
pose OF having me extract three teeth Tor her.
The ether was inhaled to entire unconsclousness

advance of the real voyage, and wished hert TO
tell as how she liked Paris. She began to hear
She slept till / removed the teeth, and when she
awoke she said she had travelled by railroad, not
only to Paris, bat over the whole world she mad

noise OF the cars
An Irish woman, who had never heard OF
the ether previous to calling upon me for the
purpose of having a large moar tooth extract
ed took it on being told that she would saiier no
pain, and would, probably have an interview with
her friends IN the old country. Just as us lhhu-

like her TO observe what occupation her friends
were engaged in, If abe succeeded IN hndlng tnem;
/ removed the tooth she moved not muscle OF
the face, but remained as in quiet sleep, Ior
about one minute Upon opening her eyes, she

vessel heard the noise Of steam and machinery,
declared herself unhurt by the operation, and
wished me to see if there was not "dnother room

II appears in this case that the noise IN the ears
served double purpose lst as means 10 get
her to Ireland aud I'd, to suggest to the nina tine

for moment after her return to consciousness
and so strong was the impression she really
thought she heard the noise Of their spinning
wheels across the Atlantic
PARNAssUs IN PuLORY.-A SATIRE. By MOT
LEY MANNERS, Esquire. New-York Adriance,
Sherman x Co-Most of the poets shown up in
this lively satire can afford TO receive more caus'
tic treatment than they find at the hands of this
anonymous author He makes several good points,
which none willlaugh at more readily than his sub
ects in pllory while the coarse injustice into which
he is sometimes betrayed will damage no one but
the satirist He has pretty decidedtaste iorsaucy
language in regard to brilliant celebrities, but on
the whole bis forte lies less in punishment than in
puns A whole volley of the latter is called out by
the mere mention of Philadelphia, aud it must be
confessed, he beats the dros Of that city at their
own weapons.
