Excerpt from A System of Phrenology The controversial portions of the first edition are here almost entirely omitted. As the opponents have quitted the field, these appmd no longer necessary, and their place is supplied by what I trust will be found more interesting matter. Some readers may think that retributive justice required the continued republication of the attacks of the opponents, that the public mind, when properly enlightened, might express a just disapprobation of the conduct of ibese who so egregiously misled a; but Phrenology teaches us forbearance; and, besides, it will be misfortune enough to the ia dividuals who have distinguished themselves in the work of min representation, to have their names handed down to posterity, as the enemies of the greatest and most important discovery ever communicated to mankind.

Excerpt from System of Phrenology I have been requested to prepare a corrected edition of this work for the American press, and with the greatest satisfaction have complied with the solicitation. The United States stand in an enviable position as a nation. To a territory almost boundless, a soil in the highest degree fertile, and every variety of climate, are added what no other people on earth enjoy, a constitution entirely free, and social institutions calculated to encourage the boldest exercise of the human understanding. They require only, in addition, a sound and practical system of mental philosophy, to enable them to attain to a moral and intellectual preeminence commensurate with their physical and political advantages. Phrenology professes to be such a system; and as such I present it to their consideration. The great discoverer of it has been for several years numbered with the dead, and to him alone belongs the glory of having presented this invaluable gift to mankind. His illustrious colleague died lately in the arms of American citizens: They did honor to him, to themselves, and to their country, by their generous conduct towards him while alive, and the reverence paid to his memory when dead. We who remain profess to be only humble disciples, made wise by the wisdom of our masters, and shining with a light reflected from their brightness. In proclaiming the value and importance of their doctrines, therefore, we assume no merit to ourselves; we simply invite others to partake of a moral and intellectual banquet which we have enjoyed with the highest relish, and found to conduce to our happiness and improvement.

Excerpt from A New System of Phrenology III. In the examination of the truth of a new doctrine, much depends on the spirit in which it is taken up. Truth is not learned intuitively: it is not always to be found by slight study it Often evades those who form beforehand a theory that it must be in such or such place, and start out determinedoto find it there. In science he only h a fair prospect of attaining the truth who begins by ubting everything - the old and the new - and then going no fur ther than he can find solid foundation in fact. I am will ing - I even desire, and for the sake of science demand, that you, reader, shall make a sceptical investigation of phrenology before believing it, but I demand also that. Pre vions to that investigation you shall make an examination, equally sceptical and strict of any Opinions, which you may have, hostile to the new doctrine.

Excerpt from Phrenology Consistent With Science and Revelation How very vague and imperfect are our efforts to rea lise conceptions disassociated from the evidence of the senses! And how fluctuating their nature with the changing character of the mind in which they originate! Men differ for ever when describing their ideas of spiri tual or abstract existences, each moulding his conceptions to the peculiar constitution of his own mind, and creating a system, imperfect as a representation of himself, and still less to be regarded as a transcript of the experience of another.

Excerpt from Outlines of Phrenology: Being Also a Manuel of Reference for the Marked Bust The aim of this small Volume, is to convey a brief but comprehensive view of the elementary notions of Phrenology. The details of this science are considered in Dr. Gall's work, in my own publica tions, and in Mr. Combe's System of Phrenology. Illustrative observations are also contained in the Transactions of the Edinburgh Phrenological Society, and in the Phrenological Journal of the same city. The various extensive collections of casts in London, Edinburgh, Paris, &c. Furnish ample evidence of the data on which phrenology is founded. I hope that be fore long they will not be wanting on this side of the globe. Nature is constant and ever within the reach of those who would examine {or themselves, and by self-exam ination, obtain self-conviction of truth.

Excerpt from Phrenology Made Easy: A New System of Mental Science Multum in parvo, much in little, is the author's motto in the preparation of his work. I have endeavored to present in a simple and comprehensive form the underlying principles of what mayjustly be said to be the most accurate system of mental science which has yet been presented to the reading public or taught by teachers, taking the liberty of introducing several new features in the way of grouping and explaining the various faculties previously discovered and located in the head, and at the same time to present a conception of a har monious development, which my observations have proven to me to be the true one, which is also apparently more in ao cord with Nature's universal rule of order, symmetry, and balance, than that heretofore advanced. I arrived at this conception after years of observation and study toward the one particular end, realizing that it is as impossible to teach or to arrive at any thing like accurate conclusions in regard to character from a study of the head without first having a standard of excellence or harmony, as it is to measure grain without having a standard bushel measure. I was greatly aided in my studies by two courses of instruction (in 1881 and 1884) taken in the American Institute of Phrenolog'y in New York city; but I remained as much in the dark, in regard to this special point when I graduated as I had been when I en tered, personal observation and study from life having taught me that the head presented by them as their ideal did not in a number of particulars correspond with the true proportions as discovered to accompany a harmonious character. I hope I have made the following explanations clear enough to leave the'impression that there is at least a strong plausibility as to the correctness of my assumptions, and if the study of the principles hereinafter set forth be followed by careful obser vations with the view of testing the accuracy of my standard, I believe that it will be universally indorsed.

Excerpt from Practical Phrenology Phrenology is derived from two Greek words, which signify mind and discourse. It has grown up out of a most laborious collection and comparison of facts, in accordance with the Baconian, or inductive system, relying for its truth upon the uniformity of natural laws.

Excerpt from Essays on Phrenology: Or an Inquiry Into the Principles and Utility of the System of Drs; Gall and Spurzheim, and Into the Objections Made Against It The following are the circumstances which have led to the publication of this volume of Essays. My first information concerning the System of Drs Gall and Spurzheim, was derived from No. 49. of the Edinburgh Review. Led away by the boldness of that piece of criticism, I regarded the System as contemptibly absurd, and the authors of it as the most disingenuous of men. After this, however, in 1816, I accepted an invitation from a friend to attend a private dissection of a recent brain, to be performed by Dr Spurzheim. The subject was not altogether new, as I had previously attended a course of Demonstrative Lectures on Anatomy by Dr Barclay.
