One object OF this workwil be TO OK
cite and encourage spirit of inquiry,
aud to assist in such investigation as
may tend TO settle the following. among
other similar questions;
/. That the magnetic forces not on
ly pcrvade all matter, but that every
living being has peculiar magnetic ma
ture.
2. That these forces are the means
of motion and sensation.
). That every Mental and Physical
organ, and every muscle has its CORES
ponding magnetic poles.
4. That the magnetic forces from
the different organs which terminate in
the face, and by means Of which the va
rious expressions Of Fear, Hope, Love,
and Anger, ETC., are expressed in the
countenance, & the muscles & limbs are
made 10 obey the human will.
5. That these organs may be excl.
ted separately, or their action modified
by magnetism, as the condition of the
patient may require.
6. That this magnetic nature is gov
erned b, laws peculiar to itself; and may
be communicated from one person 10 an
other.
z. And as TO what these laws are,
the number, location and functions OF
the different organs; the location of the
corresponding poles of the Mental and
Physical organs, etc.
The subscriber has been engaged for
some time in course Of magnetic cere-
brai experiments, the results of which

should prove 10 be true, all must admit
that they are immensely important, as
much so as any discoveries ever made
illustrating the Physical or Mental ma
I lures of MAN.
The matter will be illustrated ey nu-
merous engravings, some Of which are
now ready for use, the whole render
ing the work one of surprising interest,
and every way worthy of patronage
from the curious and scientific. who
wish TO understand the mysteries Of hu.

designating those features in the human
face where the magnetic courses ter
inmate from the different physical and
mental organs, thing never before
1 known; and thus will be seen the only
true explanation of Physiognomy ever
given to the world. In a word, the
work shall be filled with new and yalua,
bic matter on every question relating to
the Physical, Mental, and Magnetic ma
lures of man; explaining the phenome-
ma of Sleepy walking, Somnambulism,
Monomania, Insanity Madness, Dream
ing and Manatcism; the whole design
ed to exhibit the claims Of these sub,

to assist them in ascertaining how far
Magnetism has been, or may be, used as
a medical agent.
In furnishing articles for its pages.

tlemen Of the highest responsibility in
their profession.
