J.riroug'n I aided by ordinary sensory impressions, traversing sensory 



motor ancl { nerves and coming from the moving members, e.g., by feel- 



►-eTisory j jngs of tension and pres.'-ure from the nius-cles (' musicular 



W/entres. j souse'), and feeliugs of pressure emanating from the skin. 



/, Milller and Hamilton. 



5. Through impressions of tension and pressure trans- 

 mitted by ordinary sensory nerves from the moving mem- 

 bers, e.g., from muscles, from joints and from skin ; and 

 possibly, in addition, through certain * unconscious ' impres- 

 sions passing by special afferent nerves from the spinal 

 motor centres. Bantiayi. 



6. Through impressions of tension and pressure emanating 

 from the coiitracting muscles, transmitted by ordinary sen- 

 sory nerves of muscle to sensory centres. Landry. 



7. Through cutaneous and articular impressions alone.

On tlie other hand, in regard to the existence and nature of any- 

 thing like a distinct 'muscular sense,' we meet with the following 

 different views : — 



1. That there is such an Endowment: though opposing notions 



are entertained as to the source of its impressions and as 

 to its seat. 



a. Its impressions (becoming symbols of ' weight' or 

 * resistance ') are derived from muscles through 

 sensory nerves, and its seat is on the sensory side. 

 Hamilton, Landry, &c. 



h. Its impressions are derived from muscles through 

 motor nerves, and its seat is on the motor side. 

 Leives. (Allied to this, though each differing 

 somewhat therefrom, are the views of Wundt 

 and Bain.) 



2. That there is no such Endowment. 



a. That impressions giving notions of * weight' and 

 ' resistance,' and knowledge of the position and 

 movements of a limb, are not derived from 

 muscles. Schiff and Trousseau. 



I. That the above impressions are only in part 

 derived from muscles, and, as those having such 

 an origin are for the most part of the * uncon- 

 scious ' type, that there is no endowment worthy 

 of the name of * muscular sense.' Bastian.
