THE PHRENOLOGICAL ALMANACK.
January.—Calculation is brought
into requisition for the purpose of as-
certaining the amount of Christmas
bills; and Comparison, which is always
odious, comes into play for the purpose
of comparing the amount of the bills
■with the means of meeting them.
February.—Amativeness shows it-
self about Valentine's Day, and the
flame of love resorts to Bath ^post),
to allay its consuming fires. Adhe-
siveness becomes a prominent organ
with reference to Her Majesty's
head, in the shape of postage stamps.
March. — Inhabitiveness becomes
very faint in this month among those
who are not quite prepared to pay
their rents, and who accordingly quit
their habitations before quarter day ;
but Time may be strongly manifested
in the cerebral organisation of the land-
lord, and prompt him to keep pace
with the movements of his tenant.
April.—About the first of the
month Cautiousness will materially fail;
hills will be accepted on the one hand,
and discounted on the other, with the
utmost laxity.
May.—Tune will be predominant in
this month, when the Opera season
July.—In this month Locality,
or Memory of place, will induce many
to recollect Margate with affection,
and Causality will be in great request
bv husbands, who will be called upon
to explain why the usual excursion to
the sea-side cannot be taken.
August.—Marvellousness develops
itself generally throughout the coun-
try, which marvels at the length of
t in : the Parliament has sat, and the
httU amount of business that lias been
got through in the period.
September.—In order to gratify
the organ of Eventuality, or a desire
for the narration of occurrences that is
sure to arise in this dull month, the
newspapers resort to a strong develop-
ment of Size, and give exaggerated
magnitude to late gooseberries, or
early cabbages.
October. — Destructiveness, the
lawyer's great organ, which has been
dormant during the Long Vacation,
comes into new activity at the close of
this month ; and Acquisitiveness, or a
desire for Costs, resumes its playful
influence.
November.—This is the month
when Alimentiveness revels in the
will be at its height, and Combative- e ijoyment of Lord Mayors' dinners
ness will be found in some force at the i and the rest of the feasting which
pit entrance of the Opera. i Imitativeness renders common at tins
Ju.vk.—Colour, Form, and Indivi- 1 period,
duality will be the organs in vogue December.—If Self-Esteem and
during this month, when the Exhibi-
tions of Paintings will be open. Indi-
viduality will have the most powerful
effect, and will send many individuals
to Trafalgar Square to see their own
portraits at the Royal Academy.
Approbativeness can fairly assert
themselves in this month, on a review
of the passing: year, the Christm;is
may he devoted to Mirthfulness, and
will be further sweetened by giving
free vent to the organ of Benevolence.
