PHRENOLOGY.
Public attention is solicited to this Science as practised on Christian
principles, by
MR. BUNNEY, 62, REGENT'S QUADRANT.
Phrenology is emphatically the Science of Mind; and it enables persons to
ascertain what points of their character are defective without being
deceived by self-love or flattery, because, the Brain being the agent
through which the mind operates, acts as an index to the general state of
the mind at any particular period: and since _Unhappiness--Ill success
in life--Monomania--Nervousness--Erroneous or Evil Actions--_are all
the results of mis-directed mental energy--so Phrenology is, under Divine
Providence, the means of detecting those slight wanderings of the
intellectual faculties into particular channels, which frequently
terminate in permanent estrangement, or lasting mental misery and
discontent. _Phrenological Advice_, as practised by Mr. Bunney, is an
examination of the state of the mind, through its agent the brain, and a
recommendation of those pursuits which are calculated to restore a
disarranged unity or an unequal balance among the organs or dispositions
of the mind.
Mr. Bunney having examined many thousand heads during the last ten years,
and witnessed the very great success attending Phrenological advice when
rightly administered and properly followed, desires to announce that he is
at home from Ten till Five daily, at his Lecture Room, 62, Regent's
Quadrant, where he will be happy to examine and advise persons as his long
experience in accordance with the Holy Scriptures may render necessary.
Mr. B. is well aware that many persons are deterred from visiting him by
pecuniary reasons, but he begs to add that his invitation is for public
good only, and that he expects no remuneration unless it is perfectly
agreeable to the wishes and circumstances of the inquirer. Having examined
one-half the members of our leading Universities, Oxford and Cambridge
with valuable results to the parties themselves, Mr. B. must consider any
further comment unnecessary.

[1] No one will doubt how much influence Christianity has had in producing
the high moral and intellectual developement of Europeans, to this also we
may trace their great intellectual superiority as nations.
