Y., with one India Rubber Rim, by the elastic expansion of which all air is excluded. Its advantage will be evident at a glance in auscultation over the carotids, where the pres- sure made by the ordinary unshielded lip of the instrument must cause an adventitious mur- mur; over the jugulars for venous murmur, over or under the clavicle when a patient is so thin as to preclude the complete adjustment of the ordinary instrument to the exclusion of the air; in patients so emaciated as to make it impossible to apply the sounding tube upon or between the ribs, and where it is desirable to locate a cardiac murmur over one or another valve. Extracted from the American Medical Times, October 26, 1861. On Auscultation, Percussion, &c. By Austin Flint, M.D. If you percuss much, you may find a serious inconvenience arising from soreness of the dorsal surfaces of the fingers used as a pleximeter. Several years ago I was obliged to resort to other instruments for this reason. * Various instruments have been contrived as substitutes for the fingers. A disk of ivory, bone, or India rubber, is generally used as a pleximeter. The one which I use is composed of hard india rubber; it differs from those in common use, in the length of the auricles. They are of large size and roughened on their exterior aspect, so as to be easily and firmly held by the fingers of the left hand. Of percussors I have three varieties before me. One consists of a small metallic ball en- circled with a ring of india-rubber, and attached to a small elastic handle of whalebone. I have no doubt that this instrument answers very well, but I prefer a handle which is rigid, not elastic. Another is the instrument known as Winterich's hammer, It consists of a pretty heavy piece of metal, with a cone of india-rubber inserted into it, attached to a flattened handle with spaces hollowed out to receive the ends of the fingers. This instrument is intended to be used by throw- ing up the hammer to a certain height, and allowing it to fall upon the pleximeter. It seems to me that the force of the blows can be better estimated if they are made directly and entirely by muscular action, and if usedin this way, the hammer is too heavy and the form is inconvenient. For several years I was in the habit of using a hammer of steel (with a cone of india- rubber inserted) considerably smaller than that of Winterich's instrument, the handle being round and of a convenient size for striking directly upon the pleximeter. One difficulty which I experienced with this instrument was, the india rubber cone frequently became loose and fell out, or it became too much compressed and required to be renewed. To obviate this difficulty and to secure more completely the great object in a percussor, viz., to bring out a sound which shall, as exclusively as possible, come from within the chest, the instrument which you see me use habitually, was contrived and made, at my suggestion, about a year ago, by Messrs. Tiemann & Co., of this city. It consists of a hammer composed of india-rubber in the form of a double cone. This is firmly fixed in a metallic ring at the centre of the cone, attached to a handle of convenient size and length. It is, in fact, a double hammer, one end of the cone being smaller than the other end. This instrument seems to me to leave nothing to be desired, as regards weight, form, durability, &c. It produces, moreover, as little sound as possible, exclusively of that coming from within the chest. You will perceive that, in the latter respect, the smaller end of the cone is preferable to the larger end. I strike successively with the two ends, and it is evident that a greater share of the sound with the larger end comes from the contact with the pleximeter and not from within the chest. The percussor and pleximeter used by the writer are figured in the accompaning wood-cut. IMPROVED ASPIRATORS. APPARATUS FOR URINARY EXAMINATIONS. Fig.l. INDEX AND PRICE-LIST TO PART II.

STOEHRER'S GALVANIC BATTERY and other Electric Batteries and Electrodes for Medical Purposes. {Extract from the " Medical Record," March 15th, 1871.) A NEW HYPODERMIC SYRINGE. G.TIEMANN & CO We present our readers with a new hypodermic syringe, devised by Geo. Tiemann & Co,, which we think, has decided advantages over others. These advantages consist, for the most part, in the peculiar construction of the instrument, which allows of its being kept clean with very little trouble, in the comparative improbability of its getting out of order, and its non-liability to breakage. As represented in the cut, the glass cylinder is encased in a metal mounting, fenestrated to show the graduations for minims. No cement is used to fasten the parts to each other, but in its stead there are washers at each extremity of the cylinder, which not only insure the exclusion of air, but effectually prevent the annoyance of the glass becoming loose. The instrument can be taken apart for cleaning by simply unscrewing the nut through which the piston plays. The piston is made longer than the cylinder, to allow of the washer bejng pushed through far enough to be freshened, oiled, &c., without the trouble of getting at it in the old way. The two canulated points are made of tempered cast-steel and much tine'' than those usually em- ployed, an advantage in lessening pain on the introduction of the same. For Sale by CEO. TIEMANN & CO.

Dr. Loring has devised a very elegant modification of this instrument. He has inserted into one disk all the numbers of lenses that were formerly contained in the three disks. The disk of his new instrument has two rows of glasses, each of which, by shifting the disk up and down, can be conveniently placed behind the aperture in the mirror. The glasses of each row can be changed without removing the instrument from the eye. 67 CHATHAM STREET, NEW-YORK. 15 Branch Store, 107 East 28tii St., N. Y. ON THE USE OF THE OPHTHALMOSCOPE. BY JONATHAN HUTCHINSON, Esq., Surgeon to the London Hospital. Some of the simplest applications of optics to the observation of the eye, and the detection of diseased conditions, depend upon the fact that the transparent structures still reflect some light, and more when diseased than when healthy. Thus : Firstly. We examine the reflecting efficiency of the surface of tlie cornea, in order to determine its transparency. In cases in which there is no large opacity, but simply a case of general steaminess caused by an uneven surface, it may be difficult to detect it by direct inspection, but if we expose the eye to the light, and look at the image of the window-frame produced, we shall see directly that this image is blurred and indistinct, like that from a greasy mirror. Secondly. We use what is called the catoptric test to determine the presence or absence of the lens. This depends upon the fact that the surfaces of the lens reflect images. Dilate the pupil well with atropia. Hold a small taper in front of the pupil in a dark room. You will observe, if the lens be present, three images: an anterior one, bright, distinct and erect-from the front surface of the cornea; a middle one, inverted, small, fairly distinct-from the concave posterior surface of the lens capsule ; a posterior one, erect, indistinct-from the anterior surface of the lens capsule. Thirdly. Again, the surfaces of the crystalline lens easily become visible, by the light which they reflect, whenever we can see them oblique- ly. When the lens is in its normal position it is difficult, unless by oblique illumination, to see its surface; but if it is malplaced, as we sometimes find it, by congenital imperfection, or from injuries, then its surfaces, being oblique, become easily visible. Any one not aware of this fact would at once declare that the malplaced lens was also slightly opaque, and erroneous observations to that effect are to be found in some records of such cases. In former days the catoptric test used to be much employed to deter- mine the transparency, or otherwise, of the crystalline lens. Now, how- ever, it has been wholly superseded by another discovery, which in its every-day usefulness is second only to that of the ophthalmoscope itself. I allude to oblique illumination. To accomplish this is the easiest matter possible, and by its aid any one of the slightest skill can, in almost all cases, determine at a glance the condition of the patient's pupil and of his crystalline lens. The smallest dots of pigment on the capsule, the least possible streaks of an incipient cataract, become by its aid conspicu- ously definite. We have no longer any need for the curious, but very disappointing, catoptric test (which fails us just when most needed, /.<?., in slight cases; for the discovery of cataract, in any stage whatever, is 16 F. A. Stohlmann. GEORGE TIEMANN & CO.'S SURGICAL INSTRUMENTS, Edward Pfarre. now perfectly easy. For oblique illumination you need only a candle and a convex lens, say a two-inch. The pupil should be dilated with atropia, and the candle having been placed to one side the patient's head, the lens is held so as to receive its light, and concentrate it to a pencil, which is thrown upon the patient's eye. All the superficial parts, i.e., the cornea, the iris, the pupil, and the lens, may thus be brilliantly lighted up. In addition to the illumination, we may also, with another lens, employ magnifying power, and thus inspect the state of things yet more accurately. Oblique illumination is applicable to all morbid conditions of the cornea, iris, or lens, and to blood-clots in the anterior part of the vitreous or new growths which bulge forwards into the anterior half of the globe. You cannot, however, by its aid, see the fundus of the eye. To do this we must employ another instrument. Here let us ask the important ques- tion, Why is an ophthalmoscope necessary ? Why can we not, by simply looking into the little round box, one inch deep, which constitutes an eyeball, see what is at its bottom ? The answer is, that the eyeball is not simply a box, it is an optical instrument, and it is from its lens apparatus that the •difficulty comes. The rays of light received by the eye are brought to a focus in the retina ; back again from the retina they are reflect- ed, and pass out of the eye, destined to depict somewhere an image of the retina itself. The lens apparatus, however, not only brings the rays passing in to a certain and definite focus on the retina, but it acts on those which pass back, and brings these also to a focus at a certain and definite place. There is no difficulty whatever in illuminating the fundus, any light held in front of the eye will do that, nor have the structures of the fundus any difficulty in reflecting light by which they themselves ought in turn to become visible. The difficulty is in bringing the eye of the observer into the line of the reflected rays ; this without artificial aid is impossible, and hence the necessity for the ophthalmoscope. I have said that every lens has a principal focus, or spot at which parallel rays which impinge upon it are made to meet by the convergence induced. Now, suppose that from this focus the rays are reflected back again, they must pass through the lens in the reverse direction, and will again become parallel. If, however, divergent rays be used, they will in returning be converged and made to meet at another focus in front of it. Inasmuch as the rays were at first not parallel but divergent, the focus at which, after passing through the lens, they meet, will not be at the same distance as that for parallel rays, but at a greater one. The distance will always be in exact proportion to the degree of divergence, and thus the two foci will always bear mutual relations to each other. If one be brought nearer to the lens the other will be further off, and vice versa. Let us call them from this fact, that they maintain mutual relation, "con- jugate foci" You may observe, if you like, that although conjugate, they keep each other at a distance. It is absolutely necessary that you should observe that all the rays of light passing out from the eye take a direction towards this conjugate focus, and that thus an observer who would make use of them to see the fundus must bring his eye into their line. This line, however, is the same that the rays took in passing into the eye, and if you try to intercept those coming out, you will intercept those going in and cut off the source of illumination. Thus if we hold a candle two feet in front of the observed eye, its rays, divergent, will be refracted in entering the eye, and will depict an image on the retina-they will then be reflected and again refracted in such a 67 CHATHAM STREET, NEW-YORK. 17 Branch Store, 107 East 28th St., N. Y. manner that an image of the fundus will be found at the position of the candle flame, that being the position of the conjugate focus. If the observer puts his head in the direction of these rays between the candle and the observed eye, of course he stops the rays which should have entered from the candle, he illuminates only the outside of his own head, and the eye of his patient is left in shadow. If he tries to see by looking from beyond the candle, then the flame of the latter intercepts his view and dazzles his eye. What is wanted is some contrivance to enable the observer to bring his head into his own light. Now .the mirror of the ophthalmoscope does this, a reflecting surface with a small hole in the middle, it practically makes the observer's eye the source of illumination, and brings it into the direction which the rays of light returning to their conjugate focus must take. Foreshadowed by Cumming, invented by Helmholtz, improved by Coccius, Rente, Liebreich, and many others, this little instrument, which has worked such a revolution in ophthalmic science, is thus simple in its essential principle. The ophthalmoscope as in daily use, consists of two parts, a mirror and an object lens, and to these is often added an eye-piece as well. The mir- ror, however, is the essential, the other parts are accessories intended for different special purposes. Without troubling you with details respecting the various modifications of the instrument, I will now describe the use of the simplest of them-a reflecting mirror slightly concave, and with a perforation in its centre. Having placed the patient's head in such a manner that the light (a lamp, candle, or gas-light) is on a level with his temple, and slightly behind it, and his face, as a consequence, in shadow, the observer sits in front and applies the ophthalmoscope mirror to his own eye. He should keep both eyes open that he may see where the light falls, and then move the mirror until the light falls full on the pupil of his patient. In a moment he will perceive the first fact which this instrument reveals, that the fundus is not black, as it has always appeared to be before, but that it is of a brilliant fire-red. He will, however, see nothing of the fundus distinctly, only a general red reflex. Now at this point the student must stop awhile and use his mirror, to inspect, first, the transparency of the cornea, and next, that of the lens and vitreous, and to do this lie must make the patient move his eye in various directions. After a little prac- tice he will be able to manage his light well, and to throw it with precision wherever he may wish, and to keep it steadily on any given part. At a first lesson he may even, with advantage, practice for awhile by illuminat- ing the second button of the patient's waistcoat. Tact in directing the light having been obtained, we may now proceed further. Instruct the patient to look, not full in your face, but over one shoulder; if you are inspecting his right eye, over your left shoulder. You will, when he does this, notice at once that the tint of the light reflected from his fundus is changed, that it is no longer fire-red but canary-yellow. The reason of this is that a different part of the fundus is exposed to view, that, namely, of the optic disc itself, which is much lighter in color than the rest. The area of yellow is very large-occupies, indeed, the whole of the field, while we know that the disc itself is very small. This proves that the objects thus indistinctly seen are immensely magnified. Magnified by what ? By the patient's own eye, which, as we have said, is equivalent to a lens of one-inch focus. Hitherto, we have seen nothing distinctly, but if the observer now brings his head very close to his patient's face, he will be able with more 18 F. A. Stohlmann. GEO. TIEMANN & CO.'S SURGICAL INSTRUMENTS, Edward Pfarre. or less facility to observe the details at the bottom of the eye, the trunks of vessels of the retina, the optic disc, etc., etc. All these will be seen very large indeed, being still magnified by the patient's eye. What he sees now is equivalent to type looked at through, a one-inch lens, placed exactly one inch in front of it. [It is plain, then, that we cannot see the fundus of the eye without optical aid. Of such aid, we have our choice of the inverted and of the erect. Both are seen much magnified, the latter much more so than the former. For ordinary purposes the inverted image is used. It is seen very easily, and it brings a large field into view at once, so rendering the observer much less liable to inconvenience from slight motions of the patient's head. The examination of the erect image is chiefly useful for the inspection of detail, and even for these it requires great practice.] Next I will attempt a few suggestions by which beginners, and those who use the instrument but seldom, may best hope to avoid mistakes. 1. Always indulge yourself in the use of atropine, and by its aid both enlarge the patient's pupil and paralyze his accommodation. Experts can manage without, and may sometimes smile at those who are obliged to use it, but the increased facility which it gives is such that no beginner should neglect it. The objection that it causes the patient inconvenience is a very trivial one. What the patient wants before all things is, that a correct opinion should be formed, and to this end he is quite prepared to make a little sacrifice of convenience. For want of the use of atropine I think I have known even experts overlook things which would have been apparent at a glance had it been used. 2. Always proceed on system. Examine the eye first without the object-lens, and ascertain the state of the cornea, lens, and vitreous. No mistake is easier to make, or more frequently made, than by the immedi- ate employment of the inverted image to overlook the fact that the media are not perfectly transparent. With strong illumination you can look right through a slight opacity in the cornea, lens, or vitreous, and observe only that the retina and choroid are seen indistinctly. Many a diagnosis of "hazy retina" ought to have been "opaque vitreous." It is like criti- cising the beauty of a prospect, and declaring that it looks dull, when you have forgotten to observe that the window wanted cleaning. If you have any doubt as to the state of the cornea or lens, examine them by oblique illumination before going further. Many opacities in the cornea are so slight that you overlook them on naked-eye inspection, and also with the ophthalmoscope mirror, but find them directly by oblique illumination. Need I add that you must be very particular that your object-lens, when you use it, is quite clean. Any stains on it will be seen as if on the patient's retina. 3. Having completed your examination of the media, still proceed on system. The next duty is to estimate the length of the eyeball. A patient may come complaining that he is rapidly losing his sight, and you may find that it really has become so defective that he cannot read the largest ordinary print. You hastily assume that he must have some disease of the deep parts, some form of amaurosis. You proceed to ophthalmoscopic examination, and again hastily employ both mirror and object-lens, and it is quite possible that you may overlook altogether the fact that the eyeball is much too short and the patient hypermetropic. In high degrees of hypermetropia, if sudden failure of accommodation happen to occur, the defect in sight may often be so great as to draw the attention quite away from the right scent. I have already described the 67 CHATHAM STREET, NEW-YORK. Branch Store, 107 East 28th St., N. Y. 19 method by which we ascertain whether an eye is abnormal as to length. For the benefit of the mere novice, I may, however, here add, that when- ever, without the object-lens, any of the details of the fundus-vessels, disc, patches, etc.-are easily seen, he may be quite sure that the globe is either too long or too short, or that the lens is wanting. If these objects are seen very easily, and the image very bright and beautiful, then, in all probability, it is an inverted image, and the eye is myopic. If only large trunks of vessels have been seen, and these not easily kept in view, then probably it is the erect image, and the eye hypermetropic. 4. Still proceed on system. Having ascertained that the media are clear, and that the eyeball does not materially deviate from its normal length in either direction, you may now examine in succession the optic disc and its vessels, the retina, and choroid near to it, the yellow spot, and lastly, the outlying districts. I must mention each of these separately. 5. The Optic Disc. Note its shape, its margins, whether definite or otherwise, its color, and its level. Observe whether the vessels upon it are seen sharply or not, and look particularly as to how they conduct themselves at its margin. Distinguish between artery and vein, and note the size of each. It is a common mistake with young observers to pay attention to the vein only. In the healthy state the disc should be round, and its choroidal rim distinct and sharp ; the vessels on its surface should be seen with beautiful clearness, and the difference between vein and artery, as to size and color, should be readily distinguished. In the centre, or near it, and close to where the trunks of the vessels dip back, there will be seen a bright white patch. This white patch may be large and very conspicuous in some eyes, and small in others, whilst still the eye is not in the least diseased. As regards the vessels, you must distin- guish between the large branches of those destined to supply the retina, and the minute ones which give a general pink tint to the nerve itself. The latter may be much diminished, whilst the former retain their size. Amongst the more common peculiarities displayed by the disc in a state of disease, we have- 1st. The formation of crescents by its side, or of irregular circles around it in myopia. 2d. A jagged condition of the choroidal rim, indicating either the commencement of crescents, or the previous occurrence of inflammation (neuritis). 3d. A hazy semi-opaque appearance of the structures in which the retinal vessels run, by which the latter are in part concealed and rendered indistinct. In this state the margins of the choroidal rim are concealed, and the disc appears to be much increased in size, and to be limited by a shaded, indistinct edge. This " woolly" condition implies neuritis. 4th. The disc may be too red or too pale. The pallor sometimes amounts to absolute whiteness, sometimes it is blue-white, and sometimes it is a dirty gray tint. Sometimes the pallor affects the whole disc surface, and at others only a part. If only a part, the third next to the yellow spot is that usually affected, and in commencing cases this is always the first to suffer. The pallor may indicate mere anaemia, with, perhaps, primary atrophy, or it may indicate an anaemia and atrophy which are secondary to inflammation. It requires much experience to decide this point. Sth. The disc, instead of being on the same level as the rest of the retina, may be pushed backwards, or cupped as it is called. This cupping- will be recognized by carefully tracing the main trunks of vessels and 20 F. A. Stohlmann. GEO. TIEMANN & CO.'S SURGICAL INSTRUMENTS, Edward Pfarre. observing whether they curve on passing over the choroidal margin. If tiie cup is well marked, the vessels will bend so much that they are lost sight of at the edge of the disc, to be found again on its surface, looking much smaller and paler than those in the retina, and requiring a little movement of the object-lens to bring them well out. Cups of this kind imply intra-ocular pressure, the characteristic of the disease known as glaucoma. With them pulsation of the vessels may often be observed. Having carefully studied the disc, your attention will next be directed to the retina and its vessels. The retina ought to be almost perfectly transparent, but in dark eyes-and particularly in members of the dark races-a 'delicate haze, or bloom-of-plum appearance, may be observed in it, especially near to the yellow spot. You ought to be able to trace the retinal vessels with the greatest ease. If this cannot be done, then inflam- mation of some kind or degree is present. The grand characteristic of in- flammation, as far as the retina is concerned, is opacity. This opacity may vary from the merest haze to that of the dense white or gray pellicle. By this haze the trunks of the vessels will probably be more or less concealed, but if the deeper layers of the retina are affected, their concealment may not be much. You will remember that the retina consists of three princi- pal layers-that of rods and bulbs, which is close to the choroid, and probably fed by it, that of nerve cells, granular matter, etc., in the middle, and that of nerve-tubes (derived from the optic), etc., which is innermost. It is in the latter layer only that the arteria and vena cen- tralis run : these vessels have nothing to do with the deeper or outer layers. The inflammation may affect chiefly either the inner or outer layer, being in the one case a neuro-retinitis, in the other a choroido-retinitis. In some cases of retinitis, as in that which attends Bright's disease, hemorrhages are very common. The yellow spot is recognized almost as much by its negative features as by any distinctive peculiarities. It is situate a little to apparent nasal side (inverted image) of the optic disc, and is exactly opposite the observer when the patient looks at the ophthalmoscope mirror. No large vessels cross it. It is more highly pigmented than the neighboring parts, and also often looks rather hazy and indistinct. It is here that the deposits characteristic of Bright's disease are earliest seen. The choroid is the tissue which gives color and glow to the fundus. It may vary exceedingly within the,limits of health, and its variations will cause apparent haze, or otherwise, in the retina. Before trusting yourself to any ophthalmoscopic descriptions whatever, examine carefully the differences in the eyes of fair and of dark persons. In the latter you will find the choroidal epithelium full of pigment, and showing dark mapped- out areas, which might easily be supposed to be morbid, whilst the vessels of the choroid are concealed. In the fair-complexioned eye the leashes of vessels will be seen with marvelous brilliancy and beauty, and the sus- picion of atrophy will be suggested. It is much more common to see the results of inflammation in the choroid than to trace the early stages of such. The results are perma- nent, and very conspicuous. The epithelium may be absorbed in large patches, usually with masses of black pigment remaining. The absorp- tion may implicate deeper layers, and be attended by atrophy of the vascular rete and exposure of the sclerotic. The patchy condition in a case of choroiditis disseminata may be compared do that of a piece of well-marked tortoise-shell. Inflammation of the choroid in patches is usually of syphilitic origin. 67 CHATHAM STREET, NEW-YORK. 107 East 28th St., N. Y. 21 Branch Store, Atrophy of the choroid, independent of inflammation, is frequent in advanced states of myopia. Inspection of the outlying districts of the fundus is easily done, by making the patient look upwards, downwards, etc., strongly. It should never be omitted; for not unfrequently changes may here be discovered which will be the key to the case. It is here that the dots of pigment, characteristic of retinitis pigmentosa, will be first found. Here also, in syphilitic inflammation of limited degree, patches may be sometimes found when there are none in the central parts of the fundus. Having mentioned some of the chief morbid conditions to be expected, I will now specify some of the errors into which novices with the instru- ment are likely to fall. Like all other instrumental aids-and the stetho- scope is a prominent example-the ophthalmoscope must be expected to lead to many mistakes. It is difficult to use, and requires long experience before the observer can trust his own interpretation of what he has seen. Want of familiarity with the varying conditions which may be met in health, is a main cause of error. Thus a well-pigmented choroid in a dark complexioned person may be easily misapprehended. A very large physiological cup maybe taken for "white atrophy," or for a glaucoma cup ; a margin of black pigment at the edge of the disc may be attributed to disease; and alterations in size of vessels, which are peculiar to the individual, may be supposed to imply anaemia or congestion. It is pos- sible, also, in a highly pigmented eye, to mistake the yellow spot itself for the remains of a blood clot. As to the common error of fancying the retina hazy when the appearances are due to opacity in one or other of the media, I have, I think, already said enough. Degrees of vascularity are especially difficult of satisfactory compari- son. You will hear one authority assert that the disc or retina is con- gested, when another will declare that they are quite normal. Let me warn you against the diagnosis of "congested retina." In four out of five of the cases in which the words "hyperaemic retina" are used, they are probably employed in error. Both in the optic disc and in the retina, the size of the vessels may differ widely and be still within the bounds of health. Just as one person may have a florid cheek and red ears, and another pale ones, yet both be in good health, so may the color of the optic disc and the size of the retinal vessels differ. The conditions of the circulation in the retina are such as to make any condition analogous to erythema of the skin simply impossible. If you find the retina visibly reddened, be sure that it is not simply "congested," but stained by effusion, in fact, inflamed. The individual arteries are too far apart to give any general red color to the whole. The interpretation of congestion must rest on the enlargement of their trunks only; and this, which is a comparative question, is very difficult to estimate. The old notions as to active congestions preceding inflammation, must be abandoned for the retina, as elsewhere. We now know that cell changes are the essential factors in inflammation, and that it is these that induce vascular changes. I do not by any means deny that the optic disc and retina may in some cases contain too much blood, and yet show no trace of inflammation ; but I feel sure that these conditions are far less frequent than they are thought, and I warn the beginner against the fatal facility of explaining amblyopia by discovering congestion.-Clinical Reports of London Hos- pital, 1867-8, p. 182 22 GEO.

A DESCRIPTION OF MECHANICAL APPLIANCES FOR IMPROVING THE CON- DITION OF THE DEAF, BY ENABLING THEM TO HEAR MORE DISTINCTLY THE HUMAN VOICE, MUSIC, AND SOUNDS GENERALLY. In view of the very limited remarks on Ear Trumpets, even by the best authors on Aural Surgery, and in answer to the many inquiries respect- ing them, we will attempt to describe in these pages the most useful kinds, hoping thereby to meet the wishes of many of our friends who have ad- dressed us on that subject. Fig. 219. ® <5 e *». TIEMANN&CO.N.Y. The smallest auricular or Hearing Instruments are Silver Cornets, Fig. 219, a, b. They will prove efficient in cases of obstruction of the meatus auditorius, by reason of contraction, -or the presence of polypii. Keeping the canal open, and admitting air to the tympanum, they will sometimes start its dormant functions. As they come in contact with inflamed or otherwise diseased structures, they ought to be made of gold or silver, and never of inferior metal. Fig. 219, c, represents an ARTIFICIAL TYMPANUM. In order to diminish the evil results occurring from perforation of the drum, it has been recommended by 'Toynbee, of London, to insert an arti- ficial one, and thus close the opening. The instrument consists of a thin plate of vulcanized India-rubber, about one centimeter in diameter, in the centre of which a fine silver wire, about an inch long, is fastened. This wire has a ring on its outer end, by which it can be easily removed. This artificial membrane is pressed against the remains of the natural one, caus- ing sometimes truly a magical effect. (Vide Toynbee on Diseases of the Ear, Philadelphia ed., page 191 and others.) Patients should never apply them, before they are properly instructed by their physicians. Fig. 220. EAR TRUMPETS. So called on account of their similarity in form to the well-known mu- sical instrument, but, in principle, the very reverse ; for, whilst the latter produces and emits sound (air waves), the Ear Trumpet, on the contrary, absorbs, concentrates, and conducts it. They are made in various forms, and may be said to consist of three parts : 52 GEO. T1EMANN & CO.'S SURGICAL INSTRUMENTS, F. A. Stohlmann. Edward Pfarre. EAR TRUMPETS. Fig. 221. The mouth, the neck, and the ear piece. The mouth, or large opening, is turned toward the speaker. The larger this part of the instrument is, the greater its power will be. The neck, conical in shape, connects the mouth to the ear-piece. Fig. 222. Fig. 223. Fig. 224. The neck may be made of various lengths; in a straight line, also in curves, or angles, without impairing the power of the instrument. The Ear-piece is simply the small, well-rounded open extremity, of proper size to fit the auditory canal. THE DIPPER TRUMPET, Fig. 225, is the most powerful instrument, best adapted to hear public lec- tures, or sermons, and will be found efficient where the smaller-sized trum- pets have failed. Fig. 225. Fig. 226. They differ from the ordinary Trumpet in shape and construction. The mouth-piece is closed by a perforated metal plate. The neck is at a right angle to it and reaches clear inside, in a curved line, nearly striking the bottom. Air waves passing through the little apertures of the mouth- piece, will touch the bottom, which, being in form of a parabola, reflects them toward a common centre. This common centre is the neck of the in- strument. All of the waves being forced into this channel and conducted to the ear, will operate with increased power. Like the common Trumpet, they are made in various forms to suit the fancy of the patient. (Figs. 225, 226, 227.) The power of the instrument is not dependent on its form, but bears minute relations to size, increasing or diminishing with the other. 67 CHATHAM STREET, NEW-YORK. Branch Store, 107 East 28th St., N. Y. 53 EAR TRUMPETS This instrument is constructed on the Dipper principle. The mouth- piece is of rather large proportions, varying from eight inches to one foot in diameter. It rests on an iron base, on a swivel, so that the opening of the mouth can be turned easily to any direction. The neck is a long, taper- ing, elastic tube, the collapsing of which is prevented by a spiral wire in- side, and is overspun with silk or mohair. The ear-piece is made of horn, hard rubber, or ivory. It is intended for the use of very deaf persons, who wish to hear the general conversation in their parlor, or who desire to attend public lectures, church, or concerts. The instrument is placed on the floor, near the patient's seat, and the mouth directed toward the speaker, while the ear-piece is held in place by the patient. The dipper- shaped instrument will reward the person accommodating himself to its rather awkward form, as the sound is conveyed by means of it more dis- tinctly than by any other instrument. THE EAR OF DIONISIUS. THE CONVERSATION TUBE is of the same general construction as the trumpet. The mouth-piece is small, about two inches in diameter. The neck, about a yard or more in length, is made of spiral wire covered with India-rubber, and overspun with mohair or silk, being very flexible, and terminating again in the ear- piece. This instrument will convey the merest whisper, so that a third person can not hear the conversation carried on by means of it. It may be worn suspended around the neck, or rolled up and put into the pocket, but it is not so well adapted for general use as the Trumpet, being more in- 54 F. A. Stohlmann. GEO. TIEMANN & CO.'S SURGICAL INSTRUMENTS Edward Pfarre. EAR TRUMPETS. Fig. 229. tended for use among friends and members of a family. The person who wants to convey his thoughts to his deaf friend speaks through the bell-shaped opening at one end, whilst the deaf person holds the other end to his ear. The tubes are sometimes made eight to twelve feet long, so that the mouth- piece may be passed around a whole circle of friends, without obliging any one of them to leave his seat. THE AURICLES G.TIEMANN &C0. N.Y. consist of two Ramshorn-shaped trumpets, connected by an adjustable spring, passing over the crown of the head. They are flattened on one side in order to fit closer. The mouth-piece, being above the ear, is pointed forward ; the neck passing back and downward close to the ear, tapering toward the ear-piece, which is made of soft rubber or ivory. They are very easily concealed, especially by ladies, who can dress their hair over them, and are most desirable for such persons who wish to hear and carry on general conversation without being necessitated to use the Trumpet; for instance, Lawyers, Ministers, Teachers, Shop-keepers, and others. Fig. 230. Closed. Open. TELESCOPIC TRUMPETS, very portable, and trumpets in the shape of WALKING CANES, Fig. 231. and numerous other forms of more or less merit have been made. Fig. 232. In the foregoing, we have described the wwZ acoustic instruments to aid in hearing. All magnify and increase sound, but in the same way as a person obliged to use spectacles will have to suit the focus to his eye, so a deaf person will find one trumpet better suited to his special case than another. 67 CHATHAM STREET, NEW-YORK.

Application of Tieniann & Co.'s Laryngoscope. The Laryngeal Instruments represented on the following pages are de- signed by distinguished Laryngoscopists of Europe and America, and re- commend themselves, on account of their great simplicity, for general use. Before using the Laryngeal Mirror (to prevent deposits of moisture), warm it over a spirit lamp, as the immersion in hot water, recommended by some, favors the decomposition of the silver coating of the glass. Sponge-holders are preferable to Probangs, because the same piece of sponge need not be used twice. Solid Nitrate of Silver is best applied by means of Lente's or other Probes, the extremity of which is dipped into some Nitrate of Silver fused over a spirit lamp, in either a porcelain or platinum cup. In this way a coating of the nitrate adheres firmly to the probe, and the application is safe. The pistons of all Syringes used for the application of solutions should be kept in proper order, by frequent oiling, and by renewing the leather packing whenever it becomes too loose 70 F. A. Stohlmann. GEO. TIEMANN & CO.'S SURGICAL INSTRUMENTS, Edward Pi Edward Pfarre. ON THE USE OF THE LARYNGOSCOPE. BY DR. E. H. SIEVEKING, Physician in Ordinary to the Prince of Wales, and to St. Mary's Hospital. Before speaking of laryngeal pathology as exhibited by the laryngo- scope, let me say a few words anent the apparatus to be employed, the method of using it, and the points to be observed. What do you want to do * In plain English, you want to look round a corner into a dark hole. This sounds paradoxical, but the paradox is solved by the laryngoscope. The light, either of the sun or of a lamp, is received on a mirror attached to the observer's forehead, from which it is reflected on to a small mirror which is introduced into the fauces of the patient, and from this mirror again the light is thrown down upon and into the larynx. The angle of incidence being equal to the angle of reflection, you have merely to place your mirrors in such a relation to one another, as to secure the proper direction of the rays of light, and a perfect and distinct image of the parts illuminated will be visible on the small mirror. The sun can not be relied upon at any hour of the day ; and patients would not, even if the sun were always shining, present themselves when his rays penetrated a given locality. We therefore find it much more convenient to trust to artificial light altogether, and accordingly have recourse to a gas moderator, or a paraffin oil lamp, which are not amen- able to the caprices of the weather. It is well to darken the room in which you make your examination ; but even this is not absolutely necessary if the light is protected by a convex mirror on one side, and concentrated by one or more lenses on the other. Various apparatuses have been devised for the purpose of inten- sifying the light. The lamp should be placed close to the patient's head, on either side most convenient to the observer, and so that the lamp and the patient's and observer's heads are in the same horizontal plane. The patient, sitting erect, should push his head back so as to straighten the neck, and facilitate the introduction of the small mirror. Before attempting to do this, the observer should first ascertain that the reflector is properly adjusted. If he finds that the mouth is fully illuminated, he may fairly conclude that he will be able to throw the light upon the fauces. Beginners generally find a little difficulty in adjusting the reflector, but this is speedily surmounted. Whether you place your mirror on your forehead, or whether you prefer to use it fixed to a lamp, is a matter of little moment. Try both ways, and adopt the one you like best. The mirror I employ has a central uncovered spot. It is an im- provement upon the original mirror employed by the father of laryngo- scopy, Professor Czermak. I admit that with Professor Czermak's instru- ment I had a difficulty in seeing through the central orifice, but with this modification I find it advantageous first to adjust the reflector so that Branch Store, 07 CHATHAM STREET, NEW-YORK. 107 East 28th St., N. Y. 71 I am enabled to see the fauces through the opening, with the eye covered with the reflector, and then I am certain to have the proper axis for both eyes. After you have satisfied yourselves that the lamp and the reflector (which is fixed on the head by an elastic band passing over the forehead) are in the right position, tell your patient to open his mouth widely, to protrude the tongue, and to breathe freely. Some patients will permit you to see into their larynx without in any way fixing the tongue, but this is the exception. As a rule, it is necessary that the patient, or the observer, should take hold of the tip of the tongue with a handkerchief or towel, or to use a tongue depressor, to prevent this "unruly organ" from slipping back. Without this precaution, you very often fail in your endeavors to see below the epiglottis. Your next step, after having got your patient in the proper position, is to warm the laryngeal mirror. This is necessary, to prevent the vapor of respiration being precipitated on, and dimming the mirror; but take care not to overheat it. As a precaution, it is well to test the temperature, by applying the back of the mirror to your own cheek. Take hold of the stem of the mirror as if you were holding a pen ; in- troduce it into the mouth without touching the tongue, teeth, or lips, sinking the hand at first, and then raising it gradually, so as to allow the mirror to form a curve until it reaches the uvula. Almost the whole secret of the manipulation in laryngoscopy consists in this. If you touch the lips or teeth, you tease the patient, but if you touch the tongue, you are certain to excite reflex action, and the root of the tongue will arch up to impede your view. Audacem fortuna juvat. Push your mirror, after having parsed the janitors, well against the uvula, and you will rarely meet with any serious impediment in getting a proper view of the larynx. An unsteady hand creates difficulties which need not exist, by bringing the mirror into contact with other parts than the uvula and soft palate. These are not very sensitive, but if you tease the root of the tongue, or the arches of the palate, you infallibly excite reflex action, which will necessitate the withdrawal of the instrument. Having placed your mirror at an angle of about 45° with the horizon, it is well to rest the little finger of the right hand against the patient's cheek, by which means you will steady the instrument. You then secure a proper illumination of the laryngeal mirror, and by the necessary manipulation, which practice alone can teach, you successively examine all the parts exposed to view. In making the examination and recording the facts observed, you must remember that you are looking into a mirror, which represents the parts in a different relation from their real position. The epiglottis, which in nature is turned from the observer, is represented as opening towards him; the base of the tongue, which is in front of the epiglottis, appears in the mirror behind it; and the vocal cords equally occupy in the mirror a reversed position from that which they really possess. As laryn- goscopic illustrations represent the appearances as seen in the mirror, it is necessary to remember the true relation, in order to understand the drawing correctly. The lateral relations will cause less difficulty than the antero-posterior relations. What ordinarily appears to be the left or right, in the subject of observation placed before us, still continues so. We readily make the necessary allowances here from the habit engendered by custom; but it is different in regard to objects placed in front of each other, and reflected in a mirror, because for this our daily life offers us fewer precedents. Perhaps the easiest way to realize the position of the parts as seen in the mirror, is to imagine yourselves looking at the GEO. TIEMANN & CO.'S SURGICAL INSTRUMENTS, 72 F. A. Stohlmann. Edward Pfarre. epiglottis and vocal cords, through a hole in the cervical portion of the vertebral column. To the beginner I would say, make your first experi- ment upon a case in which you are informed there is no special difficulty ; remember the rules laid down; bear in mind the anatomy of the parts, and the direction in which you wish to carry the light; and, with a light and steady hand, you will scarcely fail, after one or two attempts, to see that which is ordinarily visible by the aid of this instrument. Now, what are you to look for? The first point that always attracts the attention of the observer, after having got the light and the mirror duly placed, is the epiglottis. It is the Cape of Good Hope of the laryngoscopists, and it is at times a difficult matter, a very difficult mat- ter, to round the Cape. You will find that it varies as much in form as the nose, and its position not unfrequently is so prone as to render a good view of the subjacent parts almost an impossibility. Then, too, in irritable persons it undergoes a variety of contortions and contractions, which give it a character for muscularity greater than anatomists show it to possess. Still, as a rule, it serves merely as a land-mark anatomically and pathologically ; anatomically, because its well-known relations tell you in what direction to look for more important organs ; pathologically, because the appearance of the mucous membrane covering the epiglottis is often a valuable indication as to the state of the subjacent parts. Examine the epiglottis carefully, the form, the color, the attachments. It should be perfectly smooth, of a pale, yellowish rose hue, and sym- metrical. Look at the fossa formed by the front of the epiglottis with the base of the tongue, and note the state of any secretions upon or near the epiglottis. In disease you will see its color varying from the dull white of anaemia to every shade of uniform, or streaky and patchy redness. It may present ulcers of varying size and depth; it may be deformed by old cicatrices or congenital malfor- mation ; tumefaction from inflammatory or oedematous thickening of the mucous and submucous layers may present itself; and it may exhibit extravasations of blood, or be more or less bathed in pus, or covered with a mucous secretion. Similar conditions may be discovered in the glotto-epiglottid fossa, or on the glotto-epiglottid folds. In order to see the parts subjacent to the epiglottis, you will have to depress the handle of your mirror somewhat, so as successively to illuminate the posterior surface of the epiglottis; the arytenoid cartilages, with the corpuscula Santorini and Wrisbergii ; the superior thyro-arytenoid folds, or the false vocal cords, as they are also called ; and by turning the mirror laterally, you will examine the right and left sides of the introitus laryngis, and especially the state of the ventricles of the larynx. These are cul-de-sacs intervening between the vocal cords proper, and the superior thyro-arytenoid folds. The state of the ventricles has an impor- tant bearing on the production of the voice, inasmuch as their patulous- ness is essential to the free vibration of the vocal cords, and the due pro- duction of voice. If the mucous membrane of the ventricles is swollen, the pitch and sonorousness of the voice is interfered with, and the more the pouch is obliterated, the greater will be the interference with phona- tion. It is here that various secretions form and accumulate, and you will readily understand why these should more or less affect the voice, as they present obstacles to the passage of the air, or diminish the vibra- tions of the aerial pulse. If the secretions are viscid, you may at times be puzzled by strings of mucus extending across the entrance of the larynx, closely simulating the vocal cords themselves. Little patches 67 CHATHAM STREET, NEW-YORK. 73 Branch Store, 107 East 28th St., N. Y of secretion may also simulate ulcers. The sponge or brush will readily remove such secretions, and show the condition of the subjacent mem- brane. The ventricles, moreover, are the frequent seat of morbid growths. All these points having been noted, you seek the vocal cords themselves. In a healthy larynx the vocal cords stand out, with a clear pearly sheen which is peculiarly characteristic. Once seen, the appearance is not to be forgotten ; and you will often, in doubtful cases of laryngeal disease, rejoice at recognizing this striking feature, because it will prove that the most important part involved in phonation (so far as the larynx is concerned) is healthy. The vocal cords, or inferior thyro-arytenoid ligaments, are mainly composed of yellow elastic tissue, but are endowed with the most marvelous capability of minute vibratile adjustment, subject to the controlling power of the will, exercised through the arytenoid, thyro-arytenoid, crico-arytenoid, and other muscles. It has been calculated that no less than one hundred muscles are brought into action in the ordinary modulation of the voice, but the note which is uttered depends upon the exact degree of tension of two ligaments, at the utmost seven lines in length, which is mainly determined by the two sets of muscles mentioned. You will have a measure of the minuteness of this adjustment when you reflect, that a practised singer is capable of uttering three hundred different notes at will, for each of which, on this minute vibrating cord, a different stop must be applied. The vocal cords are covered with mucous membrane, distinguished from the mucous membrane of the rest of the larynx, which is ciliated, by being squamous. The mucous membrane overlies the elastic tissue of the cords, and is liable-though to a much less extent than the mucous membrane in the vicinity-to congestion, and the various morbid changes which are seen in this tissue elsewhere. An accurate knowledge of the anatomy and physiology of the parts will enable you more fully to appreciate the importance of minute shades of difference in the appear- ance of the parts. A roughness of the surface or a discoloration, which would lead to no palpable results elsewhere, here affects the comfort, the occupation, the life of the patient, and is therefore well deserving the study of the practitioner by any additional physical means that may be Slaced at our disposal. Here, too, we have a good illustration of the ifference between vital morbid conditions, and the condition of the same parts as seen after death ; a difference that you should always bear in mind, as you may otherwise easily be misled into a wrong interpretation of the phenomena presented on the post-mortem table. If you had merely seen the interior of a larynx, removed from the body, you would scarcely anticipate the marked contrast that exists in life between the vocal cords and the adjacent parts, nor would it be possible satisfactorily to determine the mode in which the variations of sound are produced by the vocal cords. You will find that there was much uncertainty as to the theory to be adopted regarding vocalization, even in Miiller's time; and it was not until after the practical introduction of the laryngoscope by Czermak, that the study became satisfactory and the conclusions definite. If I name Czermak, it is not because I do not appreciate the labors of others in this field; but whatever others have done, he certainly has compelled us all, by the demonstration of the comparative facility of laryngoscopic examination, to make it a part of our medical studies. It would be an injustice, in speaking of the subject, not to mention the name of M. Garcia, a well-known singer and amateur physiologist, 74 GEO. TIEMANN & CO.'S SURGICAL INSTRUMENTS, F. A. Stohlmann. Edward Pfarre. who established by laryngoscopic examination much that is now known as to the physiology of the larynx before Czermak had made known his method ; but the pearl that M. Garcia discovered was not appreciated by our profession, and therefore, so far as the medical world are concerned, laryngoscope remained an unknown quantity until the appearance of Czermak's monograph. It is not my object, for the present, to do more than to interest you in the practical employment of the laryngoscope in the recognition and treat- ment of disease ; therefore I do not attempt to lay before you an account of laryngeal physiology-a branch of science which is capable of further development, and which some of you may feel called upon to promote. Allow me yet to revert to a few points connected with the pathology of the larynx, to which I would draw your attention, as illustrating the value of this mode of investigating disease. The practical examination of the numerous cases that present themselves in our hospital, will serve to impress upon your memory and comprehension more vividly what I now merely show you celuti in speculo. I have spoken of various morbid changes seen in or near the vocal cords, showing increased or diminished vascularity, congestive or oede- matous swelling, ulceration, cicatrices, growths, all of which I have myself seen. If you consider the muscular and the nervous functions of the parts, you will expect to see these also materially affected by disease. The plus-evidenced by spasm-is not likely to be very visible, because it will not leave you time for any thing but immediate action to relieve your patient; but the minus of paralytic conditions is frequently observable in the irregular action, or want of action, of one or both vocal cords. It is here that stimulation, and notably the direct application of galvanism, is often of palpable benefit. And you will not examine many larynges before you will satisfy yourselves of the perfect facility with which you may direct the galvanic current, as well as any other medicinal application, to any given part of the larynx. I have not, however, quite done yet. You may see further than the vocal cords. Their under surface can at present only be examined when there is a hole in the trachea, and at least one instructive instance is on record where this mode of exploration was practiced with much benefit to the patient. But these are refinements of practice upon which it is unnecessary to dwell. I now merely speak of the ordinary employment of the laryngoscope, and I wish to remind you, that having explored the entrance to the larynx and the vocal cords, you should examine, as far as may be, the trachea. It is generally easy to recognize several rings of this tube, and you may, when the larynx is capacious and the patient steady, penetrate to the very bifurcation of the trachea. The only morbid condi- tions that I have definitely recognized in the trachea, have been scattered ulcers ; but it is manifest that, especially in those cases in which foreign bodies have slipped through the glottis, the discovery of their exact site by the laryngoscope may, as it already has been, prove of great practical value to the surgeon. There is no better mode of initiating yourself into the practice of laryngoscopy than to examine your own larynges, or those of your fellow- students. By this kind of exercitation, you will familiarize yourself with the use of the instrument, no less than with the healthy condition of the parts. M. Garcia's interesting observations were entirely the result of examination made upon his own vocal cords, and as there is room for a further cultivation of this field of physiology, each of you may be enabled 67 CHATHAM STREET, NEW-YORK. Branch Store, 107 East 28th St., N. Y. 75 to advance science in this direction. But apart from this, the mere dexterity of manipulation will be increased by the practice recommended, and if you know from experience in your own persons how to behave, you will more readily advise your patients what to do, and sympathize with their difficulties. Not every one, however, is a suitable subject for autolaryngoscopy ; the narrowness of the introitus laryngis and the prone condition of the epiglottis, no less than an unusual irritability or the parts, frequently render the process extremely difficult. Various methods have been suggested for the removal of undue irritability, such as the inhalation of small quantities of chloroform, the application of bromide of potassium, or the use of astringent gargles. Every now and then, even after you have acquired sufficient dexterity in the use of the instru- ment, you will meet with cases which present insuperable difficulties. You are then no worse oft than your predecessors were without the laryngoscope. You will have to fall back upon those other symptoms which your knowledge of physiology and pathology will teach you to appreciate, and which this instrument is not intended to supersede.-Lan- cet, April 8, 1865, p. 360.

The instrument is mainly constructed of brass, and is provided with a lamp for kerosene or oil, the wick admitting of an easy adjustment by means of a side-screw. The handle can be folded against the chimney, so that the instrument can be packed in a small compass. The light passes through a convex lens, and can, by means of a sliding cap, be focused at varying distances, from two to five inches. It may prove useful in opera- tions upon the ear, vagina, rectum, and throat, and may be of great ser- vice in operations at night, where a strong and reliable light may not always be obtainable. Haywood Smith's Scissors (see Fig. 321), with adjustable points, possess many advantages, and admit of a wide range of adaptation. As will be seen, it is a long scissors, the blades of which are attached to their respect- ive shafts by universal joints, allowing the said blades to be deflected and fixed at any required angle. As a single instrument it will be seen to be a combination of many, and will doubtless prove of great value to such as are called to operate upon the uterus and throat. The peculiar situations of tumors in these localities very often require a particular curve or angle for easy and effectual manipulation ; and when such necessary conditions can be fulfilled at the moment of the operation, the advantages of the in- strument as a whole are quite apparent. 80 GEO.
