culation, the viscera, the
secretions, and all their physiological and pathological phenomena, as
demonstrated in my experiments, which reveal the entire physiological
and the entire psychological life, with the anatomical apparatus of
their intimate union.

The experiments on intelligent persons, by which these discoveries
were made and demonstrated, have been repeated many thousand times.
They have been officially presented during many years in medical
colleges, and sanctioned by scientific faculties as well as by
committees of investigation, none of which have ever made an
unfavorable report. They have been tested and demonstrated so often
that further repetition appeared needless, since the unquestioned
demonstrations produced no result beyond a passive assent; for men's
minds are generally so firmly held in the bondage of habit, fashion,
and inherited opinion, as to be incapable of entering freely upon a
new realm of intellectual life without pecuniary motive; and
investigating committees accomplished little or nothing important, the
reason having been, as assigned by a distinguished and learned
secretary of a medical committee in Boston, that the subject was too
profound, too difficult, and too far beyond the knowledge of the
medical profession. In the presence of such unmanly apathy my
demonstrations were discontinued, as I found that only a few
high-toned and fearless seekers of scientific truth, such as the
venerable Prof. Caldwell, President Wylie, Rev. John Pierpont, Robert
Dale Owen, Prof. Gatchell, Dr. Forry, and a score or two of similarly
independent men and women, have spoken to the public with proper
emphasis of the immortality of the discovery and the greatness of the
total revolution that it makes in science and philosophy,--a
revolution so vast as to require many pages to give its mere outline,
and several volumes to give its concise presentation. The subjects of
these volumes would necessarily be Cerebral Psychology, Cerebral
Physiology, Psychological Ethics or Religion, Pneumatology, Psychic
Pathology, Sarcognomy, Psychometry, Education, and Pathognomy. A _very
concise_ epitome of the whole subject in 400 pages was published in
1854, as a "System of Anthropology." "The New Education" was published
in 1882. "Therapeutic Sarcognomy"--the application of sarcognomy to
medical practice--was published in 1884, and the "Manual of
Psychometry" in 1885.
