Abstract
ANALOGIES between tone and tint are a tempting subject; and sound and light have enough admittedly in common to make it rash to say that the connection may not extend to their effects on the ear and eye; but that your correspondents (Jan. 13th and 20th) are seeking for unity in a direction in which it is not to be found, seems to me to be rendered pretty certain by the very evidence to which one of them, Dr. de Chaumont, appeals (Jan. 20th); I mean by that of “the researches of Helmholtz and others.”
