o. 36. DO.--SIDE VIEW.] The crow (cut 34) has very large Secretiveness and Cautiousness in the head, as he is known to have in character. Monkeys, too, bear additional testimony to the truth of phrenological science. They possess, in character, strong perceptive powers, but weak reflectives, and powerful propensities, with feeble moral elements. Accordingly they are full over the eyes, but slope straight back at the reasoning and moral faculties, while the propensities engross most of their brain. SOME MORAL AND REFLECTIVE BRAIN. [Illustration: No. 37. JACO THE ORANG-OUTANG.] The ORANG-OUTANG has more forehead than any other animal, both perceptive and reflective, with some moral sentiments, and accordingly is called the "half-reasoning man," its Phrenology corresponding perfectly with its character. PERCEPTIVES LARGER THAN REFLECTIVES. THE VARIOUS RACES also accord with phrenological science. Thus, Africans generally have full perceptives, and large Tune and Language, but retiring Causality, and accordingly are deficient in reasoning capacity, yet have excellent memories and lingual and musical powers. [Illustration: No. 38. AFRICAN HEAD.] [Illustration: No. 39. INDIAN CHIEF.] Indians possess extraordinary strength of the propensities and perceptives, yet have no great moral or inventive power; and, hence, have very wide, round, conical, and rather low heads. Indian skulls can always be selected from Caucasian, just by these developments; while the Caucasian race is superior in reasoning power and moral elevation to all the other races, and, accordingly, have higher and bolder foreheads, and more elevated and elongated top heads. Finally, contrast the massive foreheads of all giant-minded men--Bacons, Franklins, Miltons, etc., with idiotic heads. In short, every human, every brutal head, is constructed throughout strictly on phrenological principles. Ransack air, earth, and water and not one palpable exception ever has been, ever can be adduced. This WHOLE-SOUL view of this science precludes the possibility of mistake. Phrenology is therefore a PART AND PARCEL OF NATURE--A UNIVERSAL FACT. LARGE AND SMALL INTELLECTS. [Illustration: No. 43. BACON.] [Illustration: No. 44. IDIOT.] THE PHILOSOPHY OF PHRENOLOGY. All truth bears upon its front unmistakable evidence of its divine origin, in its philosophical consistency, fitness, and beauty, whereas all untruth is grossly and pa
