This arrange-ment is of especial necessity in case of blindness of one crossings do not in the least disturb the idea ofthe twinity of the Nervous Systems. Dr. B. W. Richardson,the highest authority in the world, says, No fact is more. 102 striking than the complete isolation, the perfect distinct-ness of the Nervous Centres. In view of this very curious precautionary arrangementagainst a double accident, can any one suppose that liabilityto suffocation has not been prevised ? VOIilTOitY AND INVOIilTOBX NEBVOUS SYSTEMS. It must be quite evident that there are two grand do-mains in the Body, under the sway of two distinct sets ofNervous Centres. One of these with its Nerves is namedthe Yolitory and also the Cranio-Spinal Nervous last name signifies that it is divisible into two Spinal System has two long ganglia occupying the cen-tral portions of the whole length of the spinal cords (rightand left, dark spots, Tig. 22). All the spinal nerves properterminate in, and commence from, these long ganglia, butmany of the fibres, spinal by name, form the outer portionof the spinal cords, and extend up to
