In the “Proceedings of the Royal Society” for 1866, Dr. Montgomery has recorded some very remarkable observations made by him on the behaviour of “myelin” when brought into contact with water. “Myelin” being a term of various applications, it is necessary to state that the substance indicated in Dr. Montgomery’s statement is an alcoholic extract of yolk of egg. A small quantity being placed on a microscope-slide, and covered with thin glass, is brought under observation by a tolerably high object-glass.
