If this extraction of caloric exceeds the quantity produced by the vital system, the temperature of the body decreases, until it sinks below the point at which the functions of life can be performed.
When the body of an animal is immersed in an atmosphere at a temperature below the healthy standard, a sensation of coldness is experienced, produced by the passage of the caloric or heat of the body into the colder medium.
It is easy to render this disengagement of caloric and light evident to the senses.
Caloric and light must be disengaged during the process.

This spontaneous nystagmus is greatly modified by the caloric tests, being strongly exaggerated on syringing with hot water, and weakened or arrested on syringing with cold water.
In addition much information may be gained by determining the character of the spontaneous nystagmus, if present, or whether nystagmus can be elicited by Bárány’s caloric tests.
It forms peculiar salts with acids; changes vegetable blues to green; will not fuse; gives out a quantity of caloric when united with water; and absorbs carbonic acid when exposed to air.

Of particular interest are Howard's views as to the formation of dew, which he explains as caused by the particles of caloric forsaking the vapor to enter the cool body, leaving the water on the surface.
