The Principles of Static Induction.—The application of the prin-ciples of static induction, as demonstrated in the machine devised b}- * I have lattly liad one so divided, wiiich works admirably. t This opinion is supported, moreover, by tbe faet tliat some manufacturers of thesemachines give to their purchas«rs explicit directions respecting the drying of the plates. 652 LECTURES ON NERVOUS DISEASES. Iloltz. is diflicnlt to fully explain without devoting more time to thegeneral subject of electrical induction than is deemed wise. It may l)eroughly summarized, however, as follows :— Any body when electrified has the power, to a greater or lessextent, of exerting (even through an intervening substance, which inthis instance consists of a plate of glass) a peculiar effect upon theelectrical state of anot
