Now I am not one to be swayed by the pre vailing current ia Whatsoever .hacnel that mav chance to run, but I am al ways open to conviction upon any sub ject if the. points at issue have merit enoucth to command attention. In the question of Phrenology it is gratifying to believe that the brain is not a mass of the same proportions and outlines ' in each individual, and that these littlo perceptible difference point out traits peculiar to ones own self. Now if the brain Is tho great5 fountain from which springs every thought the agency by which every acti -n is directed; does it not seem probable that each characteristic may have its own department ? The laws of nature are all systematic, and beautifully minnte in their functions. Why then should we believe that the brain, this unique work-shop should have been left in a state of eonfusion,( It is evident such ;s some limes the case,) hut gen erally speaking tl ere are seraratc and distinct sentiments which are fixed, and if there were no especial departments for them in the brain j wouM this b j the case? Then if these sentiments arc more frequently called into action, why . 13 it not reasons Wc to suppose that "they should bo enlarged, as our muscles which are most frequently ex ercised increase in proportion ?
