Depth of Assuringis, however, of more importance than multiplicity of furrows ;and it may be observed that intelligence is not always in pro-portion to the extent to which the cerebral surface is brokenup into fissures and convolutions. Tbe depth of the gray mat-ter is also very variable, and seems to bear an important rela-tion to psychic development. M
