PsYcHoLoGY, BIOLOGY, EFc.-These are mar
velous times we have fallen upon, assuredly. Some
Doctor or Professor at Montgomery Ala, is lectur-
ing on, and experimenting in, what he calls the
science of Psychology, quite to the amazement of
the lin most maliers) very intelligent citizens of
that place. When such man as our grave, speeta-
eled and philosophical friend who presides over the
columns of the Journal, is thrown from his balance
by these novel revelations, lin science , we may
well ask, uho ran disbelieve! He says;
We have been sksptica heretofore on subjects
Of this nature, but must confess, from close OBJ
servation Of the Doctors lectures that if there is
any humbug in them or in his science, it passes
our comprehension We have seen evidence
which, while it startles, forces us to believe. He
can and does control the will and senses of ndi-
vduals, however skeptiea, so perfectly as to make
them see feel, taste, and act as he directs. 1t is
common feat for him to make the subjects who
come under his influence, to see in common
walking stick snakes. babies, (of any color,) or
any thing desired. He intoxicates men cold
water, raises ghosts to order, and we have doubt
from what we saw few evenings since, could
start from his fiery depths the very Old Boy OF
all. We were much delighted on one occasion to
observe number of gentlemen most industriously
engaged in gathering from the floor and eating
with much gusto imaginary Strawberries, and after
wards, with becoming gallantry, handing them
ABOUT 70 tne ladies'. lhe deception was complete
the berries, one Of the gentlemen afterwards in
formed us, were the most luscious he had ever
tasted, and that he could truly boast Of having en-
Joyed the earliest OF the season. We cannot ex-
plain the phenomena, but we cannot doubt the evil
dence of our senses"
This is Psychology. which Mr.. Noah Webster
says is The doctrine of Mans Spiritual Nature"
And now what is Biology! Mr.. Webster answers,
The Science of Lile--a term introduced by Ire.
viranus of Bremen in place of Physiology" You
wish to be any further enlightened on the subject,

who is at present getting up quite an excitement
amongst the lovers of the marvellous.
