The celebrated phrenologist, Doct. R. K. Burhaus has arrived in Dubuque, and proposes to form a Phrenological Class. The Doctor has delivered two gratuitous public Lectures, upon this new and important science. His remarks in relation to the moral, intellectual and physical education of man, so intimately connected with Phrenology were very interesting, and instructive. We hope that none of our citizens who have leisure, will neglect to avail themselves of this opportunity to obtain information respecting a science which addresses itself not only to our speculative opinions and abstract ideas, but also to the practical business of life.
