148 APPENDIX. No. 17. Phrenological Remarks on three Fuegians.* YoKCusHLu, a female, ten years of age. Strong in attachment. If offended, her passions strong. A little disposed to cunning, but not duplicity. She will manifest some ingenuity. She is not at aU disposed to be covetous. Self- win at times very active. Fond of notice and approbation. She vnll show a benevolent feeUng when able to do so. Strong feelings for a Supreme Being. Disposed to be honest. Rather incHned to mimicry and imitation. Her memory good of visible objects and localities, with a strong attachment to places in which she has lived. It would not be difficult to make her a useful member of Society in a short time, as she would readily receive instruction. Orundellico, a Fuegian, aged fifteen. He will have to struggle against anger, self-viill, animal inclina- tions, and a disposition to combat and destroy. Rather inclined to cunning. Not covetous ; not very ingenious. Fond of directing and leading. Very cautious in his actions : but fond of distinction and appro- bation. He will manifest strong feelings for a Sujireme Being. Strongly inclined to benevolence. May be safely intrusted vidth the care of property. Memory, in general, good ; particularly for persons, objects of sense, and localities. To accustomed places he would have a strong attachment. Like the female, receiving instruction readily, he might be made a useful member of society ; but it would require great care, as self-vidll would interfere much. * Made in London, in 1830.
