Itsoon became manifest, however, , 1 . , 4-11 1 Fig. 273.—Oliver Cromwell. that it was noticeable only ^ among very first-rate men (men of the very highest excellencein their several departments), and that search must be madefor some common property of mind which, however directedby other causes, Avould always lead to eminence. It appearedto us that this property was deep, close meditation, intenseconcentrated thought, eminently cogitative, in fact; and, therefore, Ave .adopted this term, which permits to have in-chided in it all serious thinkers, whatever the subject of tlieiico:itations.

But what ? Why areRoman-nosed people energetic, warlike, and aggressive ?Why have the Greek-nosed nations been builders of templesand palaces, adorned with columns and statues ? Why areSnubs weak, and Celestials inquisitive and impudent ? Why, in short, has any particular nose its particular character ratherthan any other ? That there is a physiological reason why in each of theseinstances, we are quite certain; but that we can in all casespoint out the muscular or the nervous connection on which itdepends, is not so clear. On these and other points in Physi-ognomy, we may, without shame, confess ourselves still learn-ers ; but such light as we have been able to draw from ourextensive reading and observation, we shall gladly throwupon the subject.
