The principal conditions upon which the mental manifes- tations are found to depend. These are mainly as follows : I. The size of the braest, other conditions being equal, is found to be the measure of the aggregate amount of the mental power; and the relative size of the several organs of an individual, indicates the proportional strength and energy of his corresponding faculties. It should, however, be remembered, that the amount of one's mental power, depends even more upon these "other conditions," such as hi a organization, or the vigour of his constitution, the condition of his nutritive organs, the state of his health, his temperament, the amount of excitement under which his various faculties act, his education, habits, diet, &c, than upon the size of his brain alone. Accord- ingly, in consequence of different degrees of health, rest, fa- tigue, excitement, &c, the manifested quality or amount of a man's mental power, will vary twenty, forty, and even eighty per cent., whilst the kind or quality will differ little if any. Hence, both in proving phrenology, and also in apply- ing its principles, the province of the phrenologist is to point.
