The Vital Point
Tbe vital point is about the size of the head
of a pin. It is a little spot formed of the gray
substance of tho nerves. Tho vital spot is eitii
atad at tbe point of junction between tbe cere
bral marrow and the spinal marrow. The physi
ologist Lorry is said to havo been the first ob
server of this point, probably because he was tbe
earliest observer who has recorded his observa.
tions in books Sudden death from what has
been popularly called breaking the neck seems,
however, to have induced medical men from very
remote times to suspect the existence of some
such point.
Rough men have often indicted inslant .death
upon children by lifting them up by (ho head.
Caged birds, in escaping from their cages, some
times dash their beaks against the glass of win
dows, and kill themselves instantly by breaking
their necks. The bnllfiDch of n friend of mine,
escaping from his cage during tbe lovo season,
dashed against a pane of glass and expired in
stantly. (in examining (bo bird, I found it had rap
tured the vital point. The guardians of light
houses describe how, during nights of storm and
hnrricaof, they aro continually bearing sea birds
dashing themselves against the ulroog glass of
theirbeacons, and then fulling mysteriously down
dead.
Lorry says, “This place is fonud in little ani
mats between the second and third and
fourth vertebrae, and between the first and sec
ond vertebrae of (lie neck, nud between Ibo sec
ond aud third in animals of greater bnlk.” Lo
galloin describes the spot exuctly: “Ressiration
does nut depend upon tho whole brain, but
really upon a very limited spot upon the medulla
iddongatu, which is eilnaled at a small distance
from (be occipital hole, aud toward the origin of
the pnoumogaslric nerves, or eighth pair." L<j
gallois arrived at this discovery, which deter
mines the function of the medulla oblongata, anil
reveals the primal motor of tho mechanism (if
respiration, ibe central point of tho nervous sys
tem, by culling successive sliqes of the br&ih
until the section of the origin of the eighth pair
of nerves stopped the respiratory movements.
M. Flourens has added minute precision to the
exactitude of the invaluable discovery of his pre
decessors. Tbe vital point, he says, is situated
live milleiuelres under the origin of tho pneunt
ogastric nerves upon the brain of a dog. The
vital point is situated three millemetres under
the nrigiu of the pneumogostric nerve upon the
bra'iQ of a rabbit. Tho bifurcation of the bul}>
or medulla obfongata, forming a V, the vitajl
knot is located at The poiot of the V. It is a gray
corneous point. Tills gray pin’s head like spot
is tho keystone of the fabric of life. Thp
ancients imaglfietl tho Fatal Sisters with tbe dia
ia(T, the spindle and the scissors, presiding suc
cessively over (he thread of life; and the mod
erns have revealed a junction of the nervoup
fibres which a small gimlet nan scoop out
cosily, L-haogiog (hereby, in an iostant, life into
death.
This great fact is easily demonstrated.
“I often,” says M. Flourens. “make tho ex|-
periments by transverse sections.’ ,
“If the section passes abovo the point, the rea
piratory movements of tbe chest persist.
“If the section passesbebind the point of junc
tion of the pyramids, the respiratory
of the face, the movement of tho nostrils and
yawning persist.
“If tho section posses upon tho point of the V
of tbe gray substanco inscribed upon Ibe V of
the junction of the pyramids or pen’s nib, thp
respiratory movemoois of the chest and face are
abolished instantly and altogether.
‘•I often perform the expcrimeni in anoibrr
way.
“I uce a little rutting punch scarcely a mil
lemetre io diameter.
I pluogo ibis cutting punch into tho prolong
ed marrow, taking great care lo adjust the in
strument to the V of (he gray substance. I
thus suddenly isolate the vital point, and the
tespiratory movements of the chest ono ihr rc
apiiutory movements of the faco are suddenly
abolished
The study of Ihe vital point clears up many
dark purzles.
I need not poiot oul bow it expUins 1 lie cases of
sudden death from what is called breaking (he
neck. Tbo hangman who understands hie busi
ness adjusts the knot so ns to dislocate ihe ver
tebra:, and tear the vital junction asunder. -Tho
knowledge of this point fs very important to
coroners and their juries, and all persons having
occasion to distinguish between suicides rdu
murders. .. •*
When the root of the pocutDOgaHirir nerves
ore tarn,'lentb is inslnotaoeous: and this rup*
lure require* marvellously litilo to aacoropliah
it. HujcMps are mistaken for murders by per
sons vtlio do doi know how easily suicides cm
kill themselves with (heir feet resting, cr with
their bodies lying upon the ground. Nothing
more is needful than force enough to tear the
breadth of a pin’s head of norvotis fibre The
hangman's work i 9 commonly spoke of as an
a&phyxia which it only is when bunglingly
dune I on<;e knew übenerolcal olcrgymnu, who
hating been a surgeon before he entered the
church, and knowing the secret of hanging;
showed his affection fora pcnitcut culprit con
demned to death for a small offence, by attending
him upon the scaffold, and by himself adjusting
the knot of the rope in the way needful to
secure the instantaneous) rupture of the point
of Life.
Tbo functions of (be vital spot, while explain
ing the suddenness of many deaths which are
con9taDtly»deeaied mysterious and suspicious,
explain also the prolongation of life for consid
erable periods, sometimes after the most fatal
and frightful wounds. What l have said nbonl
the vital point explains what used to ho when 1
was there, anil perhaps still is, one of the stand
ing wonders of London. There used to be sev
eral oatiDg-houses in the city famous for turtle
soup; and, of course, tbero are plenty of them
sUll. But at the doors of the houses which ex
hibited the wonder there might bo bcgu lying
upon a layer of sawdust, at the bottom of a
basket, the living bead and neck of n turtle, tbo
flesh of which was said to be already made into
soup, and served up to tbo gastronomes inside.
The head was undoubtedly alive. The eyes were
olive and moving. They seemed dimly, vague
ly, and feebly to ask from the epcctaiora if not
an explanation of Lho phenomenon, at least,
why aud wherefore the bead had been served In
this way. Persons hardy enough to pul their
fingers into tlio mouth were assured of the vi
vacity of the severed bend by receiving n good
pinch. ! for one atn guiltless of having ever
eaten any of the soup; nevertheless lam still
hnuutedby those reproaching eyes, although !
am sure I could exclaim, “Thou cans! not tmy
I did It.’-*
The physiologists long siuco reversed the won
der of lho London cooks. Tho cooks displayed
heads alive and bodies soup, and tho savans dis
played heads dead bodies alive. Ilcdi cut off the
head of a turtle whicheurvived-C days,’ Flourcs
bad some salamanders which lived several months
without their heads. LegalUos says birds have
been known to walk and run with their heads
off.
Tho explanations are very simple. The vital
point is close to the head in all reptiles, and es
pecially in tho bntrachian reptiles; and the Lon
don cooks, when cutting off tho head, cot off tho
vital point with iL The physiologists do just
the reverse. When the physiologists sever (he
beads of frog, turtles, or salamanders, with a
view to show the roptiles living withouL their
heads, they are careful, by cutting above the
vital point, to keep it attached to the body.
One more explanation and I have done. The
newspaper correspondents who wirote home ac
counts of the battle of the Alma, challenged phys
iologists to explain how a soldier, the length of
whoso head from-the front to the back had been
traversed byn bullet, was able to walk down the
hill to wash his head in the river. (Similar facts
have long been well known. Men hove lived
many years, well, sane, and healthy, after their
skulls have been cleft to a considerable depth
on one side.
The records of physiology aro full of marvel
ous survivals after the most terrible wonnde;
and their number will be increased continually
as tho spread of science diminishes fear and in?
creases courage among mankind. Hope will
more and more help the healing art, when it is
koown how nature triumphs over the most dis
mal disasters which leave noscatbod the vital
point that all-iroportant but well protected
pin’s-head point, where alone tho prick of a
pin is death.— Uousthold IFerij.
pEMOCttATio Split is Obmon.—The regular
Democratic organization in Oregon being pro
slavery,.aereral members of the late legislature
have tilled a convention, to bo held in Eugene
city,' to organize a National Democratic party of
tbo Douglas stripe. A letter from Oregon to ft
"CalifornTavpaper says that the call elicited exten
sive co-operation.
OrriciAA documents have been discovered, in
which it appears that Yeh, during the short
period of threemonths, put to death nolesstban
the enormous number of 20,000 human beings. M
This is afact beyond doubt, thedocuments taken
: showing tbo.names of every .man and woman,

Porcupine Hunts.—Daring two or threw
evenings we had great fun near the town of Pie-]
lermaritsburg, in blocking out porcupine, il
nearly ran over one on horseback one da j, and
narrowly escaped getting his quills in my
horse’s legs. They spread their quills wide,
and ran backwards very fast, tbns presenting a
j ehrvaux-de-frize anything but agreeable. This
one dodged about round me, nowrunningthrongh
I the grass quite fast, then stopping and backing;
j so that I could with dfficulty keep my usually
| well-behaved shooting-pony from actually turn
-1 ing (ail, and in consequence fired both bullets
! wilhont any satisfactory result. In a few min*
: utes he came to his hole, a place big enough for
I a man to live in near tho entrance,.(hit had ev-
I idently formerly been occupied bysome able ox
| caTator, probobly an ant-bear. I could not get
at tbe “fretful'' in this retreat, but on arriving
at home consulted with my Kaffirs, who agTccd
that we would gel some dogs, and go out soon
after the moon rote. We did bo, armed with
knob-kerries and aasagie-’. and. placing two 1
sentries over the bole, we sent the dogs on tbe
traces, having discovered that he was out for
the night. We soon heard the yelping of the
cur?, and ran lo the spot. The porcupine was
coming along in a great fuss, with tho dogs all
around him; assagies and sticks were hurled at
him, while he dodged amongst the Kaffirs’ naked
legs, who jumped about with wonderful activity.
A blow on the noso at lo«t finished him.—Sport

Tin: Lakes of Minnesota.—A correspondent
of the Minnceotian supplies that paper with a
table giving the dimensions of ninety-threo
Lakes in Minnesota, comprising tho larger num
ber of those most known. Thousands of others
of smaller extent are distributed over the surface
of the country, and a great many of a mile or
two in length have been omitted for want of
a namo. Tbe largest Lakes in the State, ac
cording to this table, are—Red Lake, in Pembina
county, thirty miles long by twenty wide; Dig
Slone Lake, thirty mile* long by three wide;
Mille Lac, twenty miles long and fifteen wide;
Lao Traverso, twenty-five miles loDg by three
wide, and Leech Lake, twenty miles long by
eleven wide. Most of the list, however, are from
one and a half to six miles loDg, aud from one
to three miles wide. The water ia all Ihcse
Lakes is perfectly puronnd sweet, and they ere
all of great beauty of shore aud surroundings.
The Lakes of Minnesota form a distinguishing
feature of (lie country, and lend fin air of ro
mance to the country.
The Missouri I’rcc-Soilcr-s emboldened and
animated by their success in the commercial and
political capitals of that Slate, proposo lo try
their band in tho State election, coming off in
Angpst. The Jefferson City Enquirer, of the
10th, says :
Old fogyism is no more, the charm is broken,
the death knell is ringing in their ears! They
have lost their grasp in this county and city.
We bid farewell to the stand-still principle, and
give a hearty welcome to tbo party of progress
and enterprise. It is our pleasure to congratu
late the citizens of the Slate, the citizens of our
county, and of our little nourishing city, that
there is a spirit in tbe land that looks more to
the progress of the county than to tho intrigue
of partizan wire working.
Let the union party all over ibo Stale look to
tbo interest of tbe country, and act upon tbe
principle that will give rise to tbeir name, and
success will crown their efforts with glory in
August next.
Tob editor of the Southern Democrat, who af
fects a fondness for birds, boasts of having re
ceived from a lady “two very remarkable swal

he is never sa/ixoVrf with two swallutr*. — Lou. ./our.
