82 The New Phrenology. 



"THE NEW PHRENOLOGY." 

 By Dr. William Calwell. 



The Lecturer said that the general intelligence depends on the 

 general size of the brain, the quantity of grey matter, the 

 texture, and blood supply ; and supported these propositions by 

 an appeal to the evidence from comparative results in animals 

 and in man. He then drew attention to some of the results in 

 the localisation of functions, and showed that the ordinary 

 tenets of the popular phrenologist could no longer be main- 

 tained. 



Owing to the lateness of the hour, no discussion took place.
