he would have found the eyes just as
opaque as did that gentleman.
The exceeding difficulty and the nee
essary auxiharies in the examination
OF an eye in life, that has for its object
the determination of the condition Of
the retina. is SO great that il is hardly
worth spending the time in discussing
the insuraaountable obstacles to an ex-
animation worthy of the term. under
the conditions as described at James,
town
IT may be of interest to disucuss the
basis for the assumption that inspired
the coroner's efforts at the examination
referred to- The tradition is an old one
and Is allied to others that have long
since been discarded. such as the belief
that the wounds of the victims VIII
bleed afresh il the assassin win but
touch the body, etc. 1t is a myth that
obtrudes itself at intervals and has
done so. for a few centuries. Like
many other myths. it has been inves-
tigated by scientific men, hoping to
lay il for time. The last series of
experiments in this line was conduct
ed in Vienna about 1876, to which will
briefly allude later on.
The eye We may regard as a camera.
consisting of series of lenses and me-
dia, arranged in q dark chamber, the
Iris serving as diaphragm, and the
object of the apparatus is to form on
the retina a distinct image OF exter-
nal objects.
Without entering into the anatom-
ical arrangement of the ret;na too par
ticularly, We may describe it as con-
sisting OF two portions. (a) Elementary:
(b) terminal elements of the optic
nerve. a striking fact is the abundance
OF black pigment In the retinal cpl
thelium. This pigment Is sensitive to
light, but changes induced in it by
light are very slow. 1t is the one re-
ferred to in some of the scientific COM
ments on the foregoing story from
Jamestown, as corresponding to the
material that renders the photogra-
piers plate sensitive. To show that
this is an error as to its being essen
tiaI TO visual perceptions. it will be
only necessary to mention the fact that
this pigment is absent in aIbinos, yet
they have fairly distinct vision. In adj
purplish red pigment. called by some
psychologists visual purple and by
others ..ri,odopsin." This pigment is
highly sensitive TO light.

time in a dark room, or if a newly ex-
cised eye be kept in darkness, and the
image of some bright object, as a lamp

the retina suddenly. the portion on
which the rays fall will be found

retina being the usual purple, giving us
the so-called optogram. Now. IL the
