A Surgeons Experiment.

DR.. de la Pammerais was executed
in Paris in June, 1864, for murder
of the Palmer type. On the night
before his execution, says a CORE
spondent, he was visited by Surgeon
Nalpeau, who, after a few remarks,
informed him that he came in the
interest of science, and that he hoped
for DR.. de la Pommerais' co-opera-
ton, "You know" be said, that
one of the most interesting question
of physiology is as to shether any
ray of memory, reflected or real SEN
sibility survives in the brain of a
man after the fall of the head" At
this point the condemned man look
ed somewhat startled. but profession
al instincts at once resumed their
sway, and the two physicians calm
ly discussed and arranged the de-
tails of an experiment for the next
morning. when the knife falls" /"
said Valpeau, Il shall be standing
at your side and your head will at
once pass from the executioner 5
hands into mine. l will then cry
distinctly into your ear: 'Couty
de la Pommerais, can yeu at this
moment thrice lower the lid of your
right eye, while the left remains
open ?" The next day when the
greatsurgeon reached the condemned
cell he found the doomed man prac-
ticing the sign agreed upon. A few
minutes later the guillotine had done
its work. The head was in Vel
peau's hands, and the questions put,
Familiar as he was with the most
shocking and CHASTITY scenes, he was

looked fixed at him. Again" he
