“His (Longet’s) experiments to confirm those of Majendie, led him to
conclusions completely opposed to those of Flourens.”--Art. “Brain,”
_Encyclopédie des Sci. Med._, Vol. XIV., 1873, p. 204.
“Experiments on animals of a different species, so far from leading to
useful results as regarded human beings, had a tendency to mislead us.
In seeking to benefit mankind by vivisections, it would be necessary to
have recourse to pathological facts founded on experiments on _human_
beings.”--_Longet, quoted in Fleming’s Essay_, p. 42.

“I now come to the results of stimulation of the central nerves. When
a powerful unnarcotised animal was submitted to the experiment, I
observed that in most cases, the arteria auricularis became smaller
at the commencement of the stimulation. This occurred more surely and
quickly as the animal expressed its sufferings more violently by cries
and struggles. This narrowing of the artery lasted for different, but
always very short periods of time, and then gave place to an enlargement
even during continued stimulation.… This is, however, not always the case
when a great number of experiments are made.… Once it happened that in an
unnarcotised animal, immediately at the commencement of the stimulation
without any signs of narrowing a very powerful distention occurred.
This result appeared in the same animal as long as the sensitiveness
of the nerves remained sufficient to allow the experiment to be
continued.”--_Erweiterung von Arterien durch Nervenerregung, Ludwig’s
Arbeiten_, 1866, pp. 9-10.
