stanced the cobbler, who, we contended, if his mind were so di rected, was capable of attaining as much perfection in fiddling as in cobbling. At this Mr. Rumball affects to laugh. Hatt ever, we will inquire into it. We think it will be gran! it - ed that all men h ave a ca p ac i ty f or d o i ng a ll things, their mindi be trained to any on e o f th e s e thi ngs ; and that the dif ference in men is but in the degree in which they can attain perfection iu any thing. Phrenologists grant, and In fact them is abundaut proof of it, that the train etiarges %% it II exercise like any other part of the body to which continual exertion drives continual large streams of blood. "Practice makes per fect," has also become a proverb. We do not for au instant deny that sonic men are born with greater capacity than others — a greater degree of comprehensiveness; and some with a greater power than other men of exercising their minds—a kind of inuate energy which never lets the mind be iudolent, and that when these two qualities are combined, we have geniuses and men of extraordinary acquirements and . ability. That men, some from accident, some trout choice, and some from a violent inclination which surmounts all obstacles, fre ' quently apply their whole minds to some one study and occu pation; and file natural result is perfection in that to which they apply themselves, in proportion to the zeal and perse aterance of the application. The phrenologist denies this. Un less a Irian has the developed faculty, he never can become eminent in the art which that faculty takes cognizance of. What does this amount to? That a man with very sine.' con structioeoess, for instance, can never build a hut ; yet if he tries to do it, the brain does grow; if he exercises constructirenea the blo.)d will flow there, and constructiveness will grow• till it becomes a big bump, and then the man who never could build a hut, will be able to build palaces ! Therefore p ra ctice creates the faculty. T he cobbler if he fiddl es , ma y as reasonably ex pect to fiddle well as to cobble well, or, in other words, a man has only to turn his attention to anything, whether he has the faculty fora or not, and be will attain perfection in it in pro portion to the intensity of his attention. But the phrenologist will say, he will not be able to give the attention unless he has the faculty ? This we deny, as we shall. show.. What was it irmde Demosthenes an orator b ut t hi s ? What makes . 'the blind capable of doing the same things as those with sight, but that . the brain in its unity devoid of the-means of perception, applies itself with'double intensity to the senses that remain. Again', ac cording to the phrenologist's theory. all Turks must be geniuses in every thing; poets, musicians, engineers, architects; and in the lower propensities must be complete geniuses in that. way, or be the perfection of everythina.vicious., Fur if the brain be as it were a bulb, budding out faculties all over its- surface, which is the doctrine of the phrenologists, the 'Turk who possesses a perfectly round head, must of necessity possess all faculties fully and equally developed. Whilst on the other hand, if we turn our attention to the continent of Ame rica, the Peruvians have their occiput completely flat tened, 'therefore have no amativenes and no philoproge niticeness ; yet the race, continues ! Again, .the' whole tof the forehead is flattened back towards the top of the head, which is cone shaped thereby, and yet these people are not wanting in intelligence or int;llect; but history tells are a high minded, and intellectual race. But what has here become of the faculties of the phrenologist ? It is true, that this shaped head is brought on by artificial means—by compression, but yet, where are the faculties ? They are kept in the bulb of the brain ; like Yorick's starling, they can't get out," but yet they act as well inside the brain as out. Is not this an argu ment against phrenology —that compress faculties as you will, you cannot compress the brain itself smaller, which acts in unity, whether squeezed out of its natural shape or not, Mr. Rum ba!i affected to make very light of Dr. Macartney's fact of a man being no worse - in intellect; for having bad a pitch fork run up his nose, and into the top of the skull, andlosing a quantity of brain, and said, " the reason why his mental faculties were not disturbed was., because the other parts of the brain could perforat their faculties." Just so. But if the phrenological theory be true, the roan's reflective powers, and his perceptive powers, must have been totally deranged, and the rest of his brain only would act was well as ever. Io writing on this sub ject, Dr. Roget, of London, who, we believe, is a member of the new London University, says, "The truth is, that there is not a single part of the encephalon which has not, in one case or other, been impaired, destroyed, or found defective, without any apparent change in the sensitive intellectual, or moral fa cuunlittiyesfs" only poaeffsetehtiesd b not go to prove, that the whole brain in its injury in degree, and that a small part of the is capable of all the functions of the whole brain, as proved by Flourens, in hi s e x p er i me nts; and that injury on l y affects or i mpa i rs its power? anal that on the " Newtonian doc trine of deduction from facts" the phrenological theory falls to the ground: Mr. Rumba!' challenges the opponents of the ',phrenological hypothesis to bring forward facts as Gall and Spurzheint have done, and then they will be entilled to deny their theory. This has been done over, and over again, and triumphantly, but this affects not the phrenologists; they go stumbling on, blinded bye theory with which they are fully pus ,sessed, and having which, they think, they alone can see. We :brought ferwarda few facts, tending to show the unity of both .the cerebrum, and the cerebellum in their senarete functions, and we will bring - forward a few more. The phrenologists have given the faculty of amativeness to the cerebellum. M. Flourens' experiments on pigeons tended to show that it was the brain which regulated motion ; that on cutting a small portion of it away; the pigeon staggered, but could walk; on cutting more, that it had to balance itself with its wings and tail, until at length, as he took a - way more, anti more, it became incapable of any motion, though its other faculties of hearing, seeing, &c. were not at all affected. Therefore, this is the brain o f motion., Now, then, as to itj being the orgao of amativeness. The frog of all reptiles, has been found must unequivocally to exhibit this feeling, and in the frog the cerebellum has been found so exceed ingly small, that its very existence has been, till lately a matter of:dispute. Now, this is the best defined organ the phrenologists have. Either it is the organ of amativeness, or it is not ; if it. is the organ, the frog is amatice without it, and must therefore have some other faculty for it, and in that case phrenology is wrong; and if it is not the organ as the frog would lead us to conclude, the phrenologists' theory says it is, and is therefore wrong. At the late meeting of the British As sociation, Dr. Carlisle exhibited several remarkable malforma tions of the human cerebellum. He produced the cast of the cerebellum of a female of weak intellect, which was remarkably small; not larger than the size of an ordinary walnut, and which was completely inferior to the cerebrum. or- buried beneath it, and therefore could give no actual derelopement of the organ of amativeness, but - the female exhibited unequivocal signs of the possession of the faculty to an extraordinary degree. The small cerebellum therefore-did not show the want of amativeness in this instance, which is contrary to phrenology. The woman was wanting in intellect and she was wanting in cerebellurrs,and the natural conclusion would be, on Gall's theory, the cerebelr Tuns was therefore the•organ of intellect, Dr. Carlisle produced another cast of-the cerebellum of a can, one half of which was completely deficient, and the other half very small; and yet there was surgical evidence to prove that the animal passions of the individual were strong. Dr. Carlisle also cited a great number of cases in which there was a deficiency of cerebellum, and attlie , same time the-existence of extraordinarily strung animal passions. What do these cases tend to prove? that the theory of the phrenologists that the passion of amativeness is Indeed in - the cerebellum is not on the Newtonion principle of deduction from facts. 'the phrenologists state that the skull is formed on the brain and takes its shape, and that therefore the protuberances on the skull indicate similar developments of brain underneath. This we deny as contrary to anatomical fact. The skull is much thicker at the parts where ossification commences, nut!' protuberances will appear there where there are none underneath. The anatomist also discovers a large frontal sinus, or receptacle for the blood from the brain, the size or which must be according to the size of the arteries which supply the brain, and therefore the space which it occu pies between the brain and the skull the phrenologist cannot tell, and by consequence, the brain underneath it is not deve loped in its exact shape on the skull. Mr. Humball cited an instance of extraordinary affection in a mother for her san, and on her death an abcess Was found in her organ orphiloprogeni tireness. This was conclusive that the phrenological theory ,was right. In his Tuesday's lecture he cited a case which came under his own observation of a man who , fancied he was Ott Tuesday evening Mr. Rumbalt delivered his fourth lec ture en phrenology at the Medicallnstitution, mount-pleasant. In commencing his lecture,,he ssh! lie had given what were called the propensities and sentiments, some common to man and animals, and some peculiar to man alone. Ile had not classified them as yet, and he almost regretted to classify them at all, because ciaesification assumed, a priori, what veinal neil to be proved ion any science, and that all about that science was perfectly known and established. As in cheinistry, names had been obliged to be altered, because they had been given in as sumptiou of facts, which had afterwards been proved to be false hoods; so it was in anatomy and physiology, and every science where men had assumed what they could not prove. Ile would show how the iutcl:ectual faculties were classified and how etas sificatiots in • the present state of science ought to be avoided. Man had feelings given to him to defend him from harm, to lead to his individual security, his individual pleasures, and also to lead to the qualification of his wants and luxuries incidental to him as cone OF many, These feelings could only be raised by perception of objects calculated to raise them; there fore main had perceptive faculties. They had plenty of proofs that all perceptions. were carried into the brain before they could be made perceptions; that the senses were the mere in struments which the brain made use of to collect its information, and carry forward its mandates.. Throughthe medium of these senses, roan cause to the knowledge of surrounding objects. It was uecessary that he should be able to understand their form, size, weight, colour, number, and the order in which they were placed, the space they occupied, and then that be should be able to form them into au image; because every individual body bad these properties : these were properties of matter. It was necessary that man should form these things into an image; and then it was necessary, if they wished to elevate him above the lowest brute, that he should ascertain how these things were, and.why these things were, that he might then derive gratifica tion.by the applicaterin of his intellectual faculties to. his exter nal sensations. Man had all these powers. He could perceive forme but some men could perceive it is ith very much greater nicety, than others. It was a primitive faculty. pewit*, the 'celebrated wood-engraver, had a wonderful perception aroma.. Sir Wafter Scott and Mrs. Radcliff each. betrayed. in their wri tings a wonderful perceie ion of furor, so much so, t hatpin could sit down and draw (ruin their descriptions • but not so Byron, he gave the expression, the soul, the mind, but said nothing about form; and so it was with all their works. Lord. Byron's eves were almost a defonnity, they. were placed so near toge ther. Bewick's eves were declared to be the widest apart that were ever seen. The organ of form was situated immediately above the root of the nose, and enlarged the part exactly above the nrise, though the nose itself need not be wide. But he , should not be surprised if; some day, this were not found . to be' a faculty, either item want of experience or judgment. There were taanr three which required to be substantiated. It was not only necessary that man should. see the form of a thing, but its size; because two things of the same form might be rife very different size. He knew a lady who would tell the height of the column of any church within. two or three feet, whilst many could not at all tell you the dimensions. There was a faculty, forsize. He was sorry to doubt:, but they had space again. as • he should sirow, which they would suppose was included in size. The.y would find some sportsmen. who could telt exactly when a bird was within range, and others who could not tell whether it was or nut. Size was supposed to enlarge the eyebrow for we- s e, and downwards, exactly opposite the organ of form. Theo came weight. Some men had no ronception of the weight of aehing if they did not see it. This faculty was said to make a good billiard player. He had found that all go o d billi ar d players had weight exceedingly well developed. This faculty was situated next to size in the centre of the eyebrows. But they - must each take a marked bust before they could make them. selves acquainted with all about phrenology. Everything in nature had a colour that had light upon it. it was, therefore, necessary that man should have rte faculty of perception of colour. There were some painters who could never discrimi nate colours in the same way as Reubens and Titian. Mr. , Rum :all here related an anecdote of a young man who was .dismissed from his situation in. a draper's shop owing to the strange mistakes he made from a aunt of the faculty of colour. He once sold a person . some scarlet plush to m a tch some green unarentienaldea; and h a ving one time left his top-coat at.an inn, and, on going to inquire for it, told the wai ter itwas either a snuff-brown or an olive-green. lle had visited the Blind Asylum in this town, and had feund that all persons born blind, or. who had become blind before they were four years old, had the organ of colour exceedingly small indeed. This was a striking tact. Colour was placed in the middle of the eye under the eyebrow. The next was the organ of number. Some savages could not remember to any extent. The negroes men had been said not to be.able to number beyond 5. Newton possessed this faculty largely. It was shown. in a swelling out ,of the eyebrow at the outside. George Biddy e at the age of 7 ,y . ears or under, could_ multiply three dines'of ten figures each, amounting to ten billions, in his head sooner than any one could, do. it. on a slates. Some could not multiply. at all : he would. answer for it there were some in that. lecture room who could, not go through their multiplication table. Wherever a man was gifted' with this faculty sere largely the external angle of the eyebroW, nearly on a level with the pupil of the eye, would. he very, much enlarged. They had a.special faculty, whi c h, collected together all these perceptions, and formed them into , au image which the mind could store up, and callback at, any. future period. This_was individuality. If this faculty was very l'argely developed in any person, it looked at images without, lOoking at any anything else. It sees everything, but never -thinks of the relation of one thing with another. Ladies with. this faculty would notice every article of dress in a ball room, but the why or wherefore they could not tell. These were a class of people ever. ready to form images, and the. faculty was developed above the nose. It was also necessary that we should compute time. Men were not always stored with watchesoind clocks, but were obliged to have recourse to their own percep tions of the way in which time passed. They would find a great difference in people in this faculty. Many people had riot any difficulty in the.mechanical part of music, or in the mo dulation of tone, hut had the greatest difficulty in keeping time. But in some people this was a perfect faculty.. Re ‘ knew soma people who could compute distance of time to a' few minutes,, from the sun, and would complete a journey to within five l• minutes of the time,they would. fix for it. Others .had no corn ,pu tation 'of time at all, and were never punctual. This.faculty was ..placed over colours.. By a singular coincidence it was formed.b9 the anterior part.of the convolution which manifested music. The next faculty was order. It was a primitive.faculty. Some people were extremely . orderly, some as disorderly a s cou ld be. Some persons could never keep things in order, and others were absolutely pained when things were not in. order. This organ was placed between number and colour. In those amongst wrnen it was uncommonly manifested, it tended to throw up the eyebrow. Some men, hail eyebrows arched natnrally, towards. the outward side.. Men who were satirical. or witty had that arch. What was it that enabled pigeons to fly thousands.of miles over tracts of water andeountry they. had never, seen.? It was said to be. the faculty of. location tleings in,space. Gall found that when a hey, i'ne never. could find a bird's. nest. again ; but he hatl,a.schoolletiow who never missed to take him to the place. They could not haVe a stronger specimen of this t h an j e aleffinan, the blind traveller. This wasa the organ of locality . , and was situated 'above size. lie thought that space would be a better term thanuize— hut_ it was an organ which wanted to be more accurately defined: 'nose who had it large would find it stretch up to the middle. Of, the forehead like two burns. Where locality exists it. gives a desire to travel, The next quality was eventuality. I' gave the desire- to acquire knowledge. Where they found the f ore h ea d ex ceedingly flat, there they would fi n d a want of th i s power. It was the connecting link between the reflecting and perceptive powers. It was situated above individuality in.the middle of the forehead s He had a patient who fancied he, was twelve miles a f ou l where be was, but who in other respects was quite sensible. After his. death he examined his head, and found that there was a large hydatid, occupying the wh o l e s p ace o f eventuality. Why did not thishydatid -destroy other. pasta of-the mind, and interfere with colour and.form ? Simply because one part ofe he brain manifests one faculty, and.one part another.. Some men had. a powerfullaculty of discriminating sounds., Some men had a muchfiner perception of sounds thau others. Same men, though with as fine ears as other men, could never, discriminate between discord and concord. Mr. Harahan introduced a num ber of instances of this faculty largely developed a llandel for: instance. This faculty was situated in the external angle of the eye, in a direction upwards. Where there was a decided want of this faculty they would not only find the forehead fiat, but sometimes absolutely a (Inflow, lin'tation was:the next faculty which was largely developed in ch ldren. It was situated on either side of benevolence. The mocking bird. had this faculty very large. The elephant was no imitator, but no doubt with other animals had the rudiments of the faculty. He did not know but animals had the rudiments of every faculty. It was in th e amount only that they differed from man. Saille menhad the-powers of memory to such an-extent, that they could mimic every thing they saw, This faculty was-situated on each side of the head, between wondei: and beni,elence, going up to venera• tine. After they trail seen objects, it was necessary that they should compare things with one another. This.. faculty gave judgment ; the• want of it led to foriniug hasty sophisms. Wit was the next quality. What was wit. Wit was the discovery of incongruity where congruity was expected, and where you expected things to resemble each other you found a difference. If it was placed at the external superior angle of the forehead. It was necessary man should have the power. to communicate his thoughts to his fellows. It was a power which.anitnals and birds possessed; man only possessed the power of coigning signs and symbols. Language was a faculty which enabled man to speak to his fellow man. There was no greatermistake than to suppose that being full of ideas, and beiug capable ofspeaking w ere. the same thing They vioald...hase one slhossavillewesiuld talk au hour about nothing; another man who was full_of ideas,.l and.yet he was wanting in. the selection of words to.give them utterance. Some men could get up in the House of Commons , and speak against time for an hour, and when their speech was examined it eas absolutely' nothing. 111 all great orators not°. eious fur facility ofespeeeh they wouldfind ahe eyes prominent. Where the eyes were sunken, not because the brows projected, they would find with such a conformation ideas communicated with difficulty. Lavater ascribed this faculty to the month. He said they would find all good speakers with thin lips and long mouths. But Lavater was fancifnl. Wherever. they found language strong, they found the eyes prominent; as in Voltaire. He had now got through the dull part of phrenolOgy—the detail: What was tine use of knowing things unless they knew why such and such thing,' were, and why they happened. Unless- men, asked why things happened they would never be phrenologists.. Thee were laughed at for this doctrine; but when their oppo nents brought as many facts as Gall'and Spurzbeim to prove their theory wrong; they would thenhave some right to lau g h at them. l o np r this faculty h is facultyohltof enquiry into cause an d effect, svels of phi t so pt ty. Those who have had thi faculty largely developed, had a lie ge upper , f ere • s perceptive powers. This organ w as ca ll e d t h e head; but when it retreated in t owards the eyebrow, it showed deficiency of the organ of cansality. • Blind people generally had the refl ec ti ve Powers very.large, because their perceptive f acu l ties cuuld•not highestfrrll apply, in a roofwe sitar ng:t o o n their. ror tilewda the philosopher inn. whi c h was t h e , Thie,f acu lt y .i n i ts highest character to .whicirtnatt could . attain; b ecause h e had shown. them that religion did , not gain knowledge, and misdi reeled, it was the blind.leedlng the blind. The peeceptive facul ties did not reflect, and it was the reflect i ve.faculties which raised us in the scale .of intelligence. It •was these faculti es which corrected religious feeling. Without these reflective f acu l t i es we sheuld all.stop.in the eanie state of sasegeness , in which beasts are. After some remarks.ontbesclassification of the faculties and. sentiments, which he condemned,. till perfect certainty should be, attained. in the. knowledge of the various. organs be exhibited several heads, of the Greek or Caucasian variety of the human sace, and compared them with the heads.of savages. Inane former, the reflective faculties were largely developed; in the latter they were - s h a .-ed off. It would be as imp oss ibl e forameniwith such a formed retreating forehead' to become a philosopher, as for, a monkey. He. might he shrewd and cun nine; but he never could become intellectual.* . THE GOVERNMENT OF CANADA., (From the Morning Herald.) It was well observed by Sir Robert Inglis, last night, that the difficulties of governing Canada would, in truth, only commence, after-the revolt should be put down. Differences of race, differences in religious raith, dif% ferences in social habits, and differences in political fe'eli'ng would, as the honourable baronet observed, make themselves more keenly, felt after the suppression of the laie revolutionary movements, than they had ever done before ! The greatest obstacle, perhaps, to the perfect fusion of the two races of Canadians is to be found in their widely differing systems of law, affecting the tenure and transmission of property. Until' these jarring systems shall be assimilated, the English and French inhabitants of Canada can never become, in truth, one people. Until the, process of assimilation shall be undertaken, although Canada may, nominally, remain connected with England, Canada must continue divided against itself. The-English government, therefore, ought nim, undoubtedly, to establish a system of English law, throughout the whole of our North AmeriCan dominions. We may be told, it is true, that such a course will in-- valve a violation of treaties, and of guaranteed rights; arid that it will be attended, moreover; with much posi tive loss and injury to classes of individuals. We admit that injury to individuals, and, perhaps on a large scal e , may be the immediate c o ns equence : the necessity must; however, justify the change. There can be no reason, more,over, why Government should not in the circum stances, take into consideration, the claims. of injured parties, and afford to all such reasonable compensation. When a great public good is attained at the cost of in diYiditals, these individuals are, in equity, entitled.taa fair consideration at the hands of the 'That treaties should from time to time be departed froth,. is an inevitable consequence of the imperfect wis dom which presides over all political arrangements; but if treaties are not departed from in a spirit of bad faith, there can never exist ground for much regret upon the subject. It is for the permanent interest of the. French Canadians, as, certainly, as it is for the immediate and perthanent interest of the English Canadians, but that one, system of, property-laws should prevail throughout our, American colonies; above all the interest of the mo ther country, the interest of the empire, as a whole, de mands•the change indicated. If it were necessary, in the circumstances, to plead any other title on the part of England, to effect this great alteration, that other title would be supplied by the result of the late unhappy con. test. The. French Canadians have attempted to.eitange the, relation in which they stood to England. They have failed. England has, at least,. as good a sight in any ciceumstances, to change the relations' which connected her with a portion of her colonists atlas - matters new stand; the law of conquest supplies Englan d -with sufficient warrant: We do not, however, urge argument. It is sufficient, to note,, that this argument'sinfluence, is on the side of the great and beneficial change whicllwe recommend. It is worthy of remark,. at the-same time, that the men most likely to talk, in.theanatter of Canada, of violated_ treaties, are the very men, whose boast-it is, that they are committed in deadly hostility against the oldest and'best guaranteed institutions of England-41M laugh,at vested rights—and find ma t ter o f merr i ment i n the Wridom of our ancestors!"

NATIONAL EIYUCATION; • ( From the Horning Herald.) Wetrust: that no plan of national education, coming from , suck a personage as Lord Brough am , w ill ever re -' ceivethe sanction of the House of Lorry. Ilt he tree is to he judged by its fruits, and we have the highest au. tifority for saying that it should, the " tree of know licr„ge," planted by such !lands, is not one from which the country will ever gather any wholesome fruit. Every reform that L or d Brougham has yet originated, or had muehto do with, has been a blander or a failure. His pre sent' position is still less favourable to any sound and judi cious view of public questions than his former one. Asa whig,.and afterwards a whig-radical, he might have been diSposed, even with all his constitutional temperament for dabbling in mischievous innovations under. the name of reform, to preserve a few remnants of our ancient and unrivalled system of mixed government which gave England its once glorious pre-eminence in the world ; but now he is an avowed radical ; he has taken Wakley's, powders, and " goes the whole hog." Will the House oft Lords, allow such a politician as this to dabble with the education of the people, and thrust his crude,_ ab surd, and mischievous theories on the country as the, emanation of deliberate wisdom There is no question that. a political party exists in this -country, and that though not a very numerous, yet a very•active one, whose efforts are constantly directed to the unhallowed task of unchristianizing the people. The:House of Lords went too far already in yielding- to that mock-liberalism, when they sanctioned the whig ratlical marriage and registration acts, tlrepower of which imposes in certain cases upon 'clergymen of the Church of - England the duty of violating the canons which it is also their duty to obey—while the latter,, by disconnect ing the naming, of the poor man's child from the baptis mal rites, strikes at Christianity in its very source. We hope the House of Lords, which on other occasions, more especially in resisting the attempted destruction of the Irish Protestant Cherch, has deserved so well of the country, will not allow any more measures conceived in a similar spirit of false and demoralisinp, liberalism, come from what quarter they niav, to receive their sanction, and go forth clothed with the authority of law, to un- n settle the Christi a n p r i nc ipl es o f the people and under , mine the best institutions of the country. _Any plan of national education, which is not.esseutially a moral and religious one —any scheme of that sort of which the Holy Scriptures are not the corner-stone, will inevitably produce more mischief than good: The sim plicity of ignorance is better than a vicious k-wwledge --virtue and contentment may co-exist with the former, ' bat the latter begets nothing but disaffection, turbulence, and disorder; it 'breaks down all veneration for things established, and induces a blind pre'stimptuousness in disturbing, for the sake of untried theories, or through a malignant passion for destruction, the very frame-work. of society. We have seen enough of this of late -years —the people were led astray by the delusions and' sor cedes of false prophets. Those of a better nature have renounced their errors, and abjured the doctrines of the. - political impostors.. Those who. sought change to gra tify a malevolent feeling or a selfish vanity have become desperate' through disappointment. The last elections in Great Britain threw up the barriers of 'conservatism round the national institutions. The assailants of those institutions, whether they proceed by open assault, or by sap and undermine, will meet, we hope, in the House of LOrds at least, not only the conrageous but the vigilant' sentinels,and guardians of the altar, the crown, and' the public liberties. Insidious liberalism, with.its education plans, .must,be exposed and defeated, or all that has been , hitherto done to prese rve th e re li g i on and morals England will have been unavailing. HAMBURGII, Jan. 23.—The navigation is completely interrupted. Wind E. a severe steady frost ROTTERDAM, Jan. 26.—There is much drifting ice in Ifelvoet Roads Foway, Jan. 27.—The brig Brandywine Packet. of Sunderland, was lost (with the master, Holman, or Almond, and seven of the crew,) on the coast of Cornwall, on the morning of the 26th instant on her pas3age from Charente for London, with a cargo of brandy. The vessel lett Charente on the 10th, experiencing nothing but a succession of eaNterly gales. On the 23rd. made the Portland Light, and in consequence of the dreadful gale and heavy sea running, was obliged to lay to, drifting to the westward. On the 25th, about eight o'clock in the evening, the Eddystone Light bore E. and by N. then considering the vessel was drifting a fair coast for Falmouth. On the following morning, before daylight, it came to a very thick snow shower, which lasted for some time, and on its clearing off : land was observed close to them, when they endeavoured to wear, be • soon discovered on her lee bow a rock,_ which they tried by all passible means to weather, but could not. She struck about a quarter past six. o'clock in the morning, broadside on, with great violence, the sea making a complete breach over her; and in less than six minutes she bectinle a total wreck. The only one of the crew who saved himself to relate the melancholy occurrence is James Gilchrist, w h o miracu lously escaped. After being once washed overboard he regained the ship, and jumped from the bowsprit end on the rock. The remainder of the crew were washed overboard almost instantly, anti none of them afterwards observed, except Charles Rog e rs, o f Li verpool, who was seen on the wreck by Gilchrist for more than one hour and a half in a must heart-rcudering • situation to the feelings of his poorship mate, who spoke to him from the rock but could render him no as sistance ; at last a sea washed him off the wreck, and he was seen rio remained more, This rock Droves to he the Gwingeas, ofrGorranshaven, about one mile fiom the shore, curd about one mile and three quarte rs almost. d o ofthe ke d l: e exposedad mi n 'P t breaking over him, until two o'clock in the afternoon , when he was fh o t the where-the iritese 01. seaman a .t .the Gilchrist the sea discovered by the Fox, revenue cutter, and rescued from his perilous situation by the boat's crew MEVAGISSEY, Jan. 27.—Yest.rday part of the vessel and cargo of the Brandywine Packet, from Charente. came ashore three miles to I the west war d o f t hi s. a t a pl a ce called Gorran greatest , part of the br an dy w ill b vsa ved LONDONDERR Y , J an . 26.-TheWilliam & Charles, Carroll, from .Teignmouth for Liverpool, was blown up this channel with strong east winds and stow; came up to the quay - 3'esterday to refit ;- lest bulwarks, boats. &e, and his men disab l ed from the severity o f th e weather; the vessel is strained, and making so much water that she must discharge her cargo to stop the leak 6-3 8. 6 - 3 8 8 - 2 10 0 - 3' 3 2 - 3 6 0 -36 0 0 -59 0 0 -52 . twelve miles from the place - where he actually was, and al though he heaid the tower bells he was persuaded he was not in London, though in other respects sensible. On his death he found a large hydatid occupying the space of eoentuallity. " Why," asks Mr. 13urnba11, "did not this by datid destroy other parts of the mind, and interfere with colour and form ? Simply because one part of the brain manifests one faculty, and another another." Dr. Haslem has cited a case , of a young woman, aged twenty, who was mad, and whose. madness wasoccasioned by religious enthusiasm, and a too fre quent attendanceon couventicles. She was continually terrified with the most alarming apprehensions for the salvation of her soul, and sang, wept, and prayed alternately. After•continuing in this state for some time she died. Her head was examined, and it was found that the pia mater, or membrane investing the different convolutions of the brain was inflamed, and.an extra savated blotch, about the size of a shilling, was seen upon the membrane, in the middle of the lateral part of the right lope of the cerebrum. 'Co what conclusion does this lead ? Simply that if there be any faculties at all, secretiveness is the proper faculty of veneration, for secretiveness was diseased; and secondly, that there is no.duplicity of organs, or secretiveness ,on the left side would have properly carried on the functions of the part whilst its duplicate organ was diseased on the right, as iu the case of the eyes, when one is•diseased . the other acts far bofh., There fore on both these points phrenology is without foundation.

In our last paper we contended, that instead of phrenology goin g on " the Newtonian doctrine of deductions from facts," ►t was opposed to facts throughout, and - that facts tended .to. prove the brain to be one organ only. and not a plurality of organs. One of Mr. Ritmliall's argument's in favour..of this plurality wa s . that in" genius we - must have men clever in all thing:•, which was not !he fact, if we did not suppose the'brain to be divided into faculties. a nd one of these faculties to be the seat cifgenius, which was'the as one man bad- a. genius for music,anotber.fur perry, &c. We ventured to assert a contrary belief, and in, , the most notorious thieves confined in the Edinburgh gaol and .hridewell ; and of various individuals, English, Scotch, 'aid Irish, presenting an extensive series of. facts subvertuve.of phrenology:" He demonstrated that in fifteen muiderers, se letted chiefly for their notorious blood•thirstinessand depravity, every one of them had the organ of destructiveness absolutely less than the average of ordinary heads ; that thirteen. of them.had it relatively less, when compared with the whole contents of the skull. He further snowed that twelve of these men had the or gan of benevolence more largely developed than the average, that their conscientiousness was also full, and that the skulls ge nerally exhibited no remarkably deficiency of brain before the ear, or preponderance of developeurent in the region to which the animal propensities are referred. He took the measurements of the.skull of Dr. David Gregory, who had been Profressor of I Mathematics in the University of Edinburgh, and who was subsequently appointed Savilian Professor of Astronomy at Ox-. ford, and who was the. distinguished friend and compani on of Sir Isaac Newton, and the learned author of several valuable works on mathematical science, and a man of high moral, and in tellectual virtue. In his skull the organ of destructiveness was'in its real size, larger than the same organ in the heads of the inur deters included in the induction, and in proportion to the gene ralsame Cuinill3iunrsk,ee ogga rt lydesdale, , si s ize Anderson, of the G len, brain, Balfour, larger t Pepe, than h tMor timer e and Divan. His organ of combativeness was. larger than every one of the murderers. His organ of acrinisitireness was the same as Balfour's, and larger thin the same organ in Gordan, M'Kean, and'Haggart, who were noted thieves. His organ of.' secretiveness. was larger than each, of the murderers. Burke had the organ of benevolence in absoluter size ; the same as the professor; four other murderers nearly the sam e, and seven others actually larger; and in proportion to the size of- the entire brain, eleven out' of the twelve had benevolence larger than the learned, and virtuous professor! Clydesdale, an d Kerr, had the organ of conscientiousness larger than the profes sor, and in proportion to the entire brain, Burke, Anderson, Gordan, and several of the others had it greater than the Doctor. Four of the murderers had the intellectual organs the same as the professor, , three nearly the same, and three absolutely larger. Haggart, Scott, Anderson, Glen, Balfour, Macmillan, and several other degraded men, and murderers, had causality, the organ of reasoning, larger than the professor: and the same mem were.fouud to have the animal propensitiesless developed! Mr. Stone then proved, that according to the phrenologists' doctrine of faculties, 'Voltaire should have been a bett er mur derer than Thurtell, and a greater theif than Haggart; and. that Haggart possessed more wit than Sheridan. That Thurtell, with veneration large, benevolence very large, and a dh es i ve n ess very large, must have teen a religious, pious, and amiable man, totally incapable of outraging the laws of God, or murdering one, whom he had so low considered, and called , his friend ! Yet, phrenologists, in the Phrenological Journal, vol. 1. p. 331, have attempted to reconcile Thurtell's actual character with these r!evelopements. according to their theory • and this is it : "The murder committed by Thurtell was a predetermined, cold blooded deed; nothing can justify it.
