The objects of this Journal 'are to preserve ? from oblivion the most interesting of the very ? i numerous facts confirmatory and illustrative of s the truth of phrenology; to record the history w 3 and progress of the science; to 6how its true 3 i bearings on the education (physicial, intellect " , tual, and moral); on the nature and treatment , i * of insanity; on jurisprudence and criminal leg- !. ~ ? islation; on mental and moial philosophy; and j- to point out various applications to the im- J provement of the institutions, manners, and Jl ? systoins of society j of j Original essays on phrenological subjects als s will form part of the Journal, and also reviews f I of phrenological and anti-phrenological works; f j and, as often as practicable, we shall transfer | i to its pages, the best articles in the fcdinburg m. - Phrenological Journal.
