Wild Beasts Far Sighted.

A curious communication has been made
to the Academic de Medicine by M.
Motais, of Anglers, whose works on the
various diseases Of the eye are highly es-
teemed. He has closely examined the eff
feet of captivity on hesight of wild beasts,
such as lions, tigers, etc, and asserts that
all animals in savage state are far sighted.
The same remark applies to man in an un-
civilized state, and even to those who,
though civilized, follow avocations which
oblige them to remain constantly in the
open air, such as sailors or farm laborers
The same faculty subsists in Gagged ami
mails when they have been taken after the
age of 6 or months; but when born in
captivity, or kept in cages when very
young, they become near sighted. which
NJ. MOtais attributes to the narrow space
in which they are confined, and the train
ing which obliges them to follow the eye
of the keeper or tanner to obey his will.
The near sightedness of school children
may, in his opinion, be ascribed to the
same cause.-the habit Of concentrating the
sight on one point, and the fact that the
power of the visual organ becomes modi-
fed according to tie requirements to which
it is subjected.-Murray's Magazine.
