General HawliiiRs, 'ami moved In there wiien 1
was in; my twenties, yoon after eoterlnj the

Jesse Grant. It was a hxvtxc, fine Btore, built
dfep, wiih only a place below for hi.inj; tho
kin, which were tanned at Coviufrton, Ken
tucky. I don't know how General Grunt's
father got into business at Galena, but there
was h Mrs. Lee living there, hull' tutor to Gene
ral Grant's mother, and her house m nest door
to mine.
"'Her favorite topic of conversation was
Captain Grant, or Uiyses, as she pcnerally
called him, who was represented to rie as the
flower of the tloek. He had been in the army,
nt West Poiut, in Mexico, and Mrs. Lee repre
sented that he mado a particularly bandsorue
tRiue on horseback. I had quite a c irloity at
least to se this member of the family; for, up
our way wo liU'J a preat idea of a Mcxicnti-wtir
soldier, tli'; extent ot our heroes being private
soldier of that war. I was sixteen when it
lnokc out, and w;is ulmost crazy to got permis
sion to enlist.
"(Here enter? an aide-de-?amp from tome
department headquarters: 'General ltawliugs,
General lilank is unable to answer pome qui'8

in the following papers, with accounts attached,
Mid he therefore relets them, with his endorse
ment, to the treueinl commandim:.')
"well! General, dirt Grant come at last?'
'Yee; I saw him under these favorable anticipa
tions a few diys after he came. I had previously
teen all his brothcro, nnd not one of them bat
was a eagnclous business man. I looked cau
tiously at Grant, and under liu simplicity saw
the marks ot power, giveu him by nature und
commnnd. lie was not a taunor at Galem, but
a clerk. lie sometimes, at solicitation, sut ou
the store-counter, and related iucidents of
Mexico a country that seems to havo stirrci
Lira to cutb.uslas.tu by IU beauty and resources,
and he holds the same regard for it still. I got
to know General Grant slowly, nnd it was not
till after the beginning ot the war that I found
out that he had any specific liking tor me.'
"(Enter ollicer of the A udilor of the Treasury.
'General Iliiwliugn, the Department wishes to
know if you have any record of the fact as to
whether General Mel'herson, of Ohio, kept his
servants down to the date of his death. His
mother is in need of the residue of the settle
ment of his accounts, but we c'lii'i. pay for those
eervan's by rule till v.e gst testimony that ho
kept them. Of course, lie m ist have done so,
but we want a voucher to cover us.'
"Geneial ltawlmgs: 'I will write to Mijor
Alive, at chicugo, who was with AluPuersou up
to the moment ot his dea'.li.'
"O'.fieer 'It'jou will.')
" 'Well, General, I see you are conghlDg. I
Will a -k the rest another time.'
" 'I am talking too much, but I'll finish. The
war matter grew before Grant had become half
acquainted ia Galena. He was not nu nrtier on
politics, but lie had boon an old line Whig aud
cast a vote in 1850 for Buchanan. I was a Dou
glas Democrat, and took the stump there. Grant
told me that he had a erent admiration lor
Lincoln. He hud real, as they wero made, the
speeches between Lincoln aud Douglas, and
said it was a nice questiou to say who got the
liest ot the argument, We counted on him as a
Douglas Democrat, though all his brothers were
Republican?. Some time during the campaign
John E. Smith, a soldier ot the Mexicau war,
burst upon tho town with a magnificent display
of Wide-Awakes, whom he had drilled secretly.
This morii lied our side a good deal, nnd we re
solved to get up a blmilar organization. We
thought we would elect Captain Grant tho
marshal of it, or In his stead, should he decliue,
John Maltby,' afterward Rrigadicr General.
, " 'I was one of the Committee to call on
Grant. He said that he was beginning business
and should have to decline entering into poli
tics. We therefore rhose Maltby. Grant weut
ou with his store, selling harness, s.iJJlevy, and
hardware, aud got into the firm at lust. Lincoln
was elected. Grant said from that time that the
South would ficht. 1 could not bring my mind
to contemplate this, but the Captain seemed to
be positive, and from that day beaau to speak
ofteuer ot Ins mililat-y education, his debt
therefor to the country, und to talk with mo
upon the capacities of the North to raise troops.
About that time he wrote a letter, so expressing
himself, to a man in Missouri, und this letter
Albert D. Xtichnrdson, unknown to Grant,
found out aud inserted in his book. Wneu
Sumter was attacked, we all looked to Grant,
Hrniib, and Maltby. The former went to work
at once, accepted the presidency of recruitiuf
meetings, and we three, with Ho a ley, utter ward
ou the stall", went toGulena and to Hanover and
raised that company for three mouths' service.
Siity two men out of iu eighty odd afterward
enlisted for the war.
" 'In this se tsoj I saw new encrelcs in Grant.
A larger career had opened betoro him. He
dropped a stoop shouldered way ho had of
tvalkin,?, and set lus hat lorwardou his forehead
in a less careless fashion. Yet he uever seemed
to have an ambition above regimental rank, and
all his talk with me was upon the boat place iu
a regiment that I should try lor. He became a
carpet-bagger theu, and I saw him as he left
lialena, wnh his traps iu hand.
" "Kawliugs," he cried, "If I see anything
that will suit jou I'll eend you word."
" "Do, CuptaiDl"
" 'I took my sick wife eastward soon after
ward, and saw in the New York Tribune th'it
Grant had been made a Urlgadier-Ueneral, aud
ftlso found a letter forwarded from him, saying:
'llawlings, I um entitled to a Captain and A. A.
(., I puess you had better ceme and tHke it." I
therefore withdrew from a rccirueiit that I was
raising, and doubtful ot my capacity to be inde
pendently Useful, to iuexpeneuced, I joined
Grant at Cairo.
' 'Ho had an office iu a great bank there, and
I was timnzed at tbe quiet, prompt way iu wh'eh
he handled his multitude of letters, requisitions
and papeis, siltiue behind the cashier's window
hole, with a waste bket under him and order
lies to despatch business us he did it.
"Devond ray friendship for Grant I felt that
I was troiue to be attached to a man en mil ta the
enlarging situation. And to I have regained

Tlio Improvements in Paris.
The Taris correspondent tf un English paper
writes:
"Improvement cer'ainly does march onwards
in 1'ans, and, like other inarches, it costs a great
deal of money, as ou will see by the following
statement of a I'm Is paper, which is, no doubt,
correct: 'Ihe jury of expropiiiition has iui-t
decided on the indemnities to bo given to the
owutrs and tenants of houses in the Kites de la
thauiseo d'Autin. du HeUer, and 'i'allhaut.
required for tho prolonyation of the Boulevard
llausmnrin. The amount to be paid to the
landlords is 11,000,000 lrauc1, and to the occu
ptnts l,5'J2,7j0 fraiiis. Th.j lowest indemnity
10 any owner is 110,000 francs, while others
amount to 1,100,000 fruuue, 1,100,000 francs, and
1,050,000 francs.
"Itmuht be remembered that this street cuts
down und through the best and tho busiest
streets in Paris, it is not wonderful, however,
that we havo furniture, door and window taxes,
It is wonderful to walk about and simply
survey the changes. Any one who looked out of
the w indows of the Grand Hotel six weeks a.40
would not know where he was now. At ouu
end of fho new Houlevard Napoleon (close totha
Francois) there Is already a ten graph otlice, ar.d
at the olher end, although there is only devasta
tion to day, theie will, 1 have uo doubt, be some
gigantic improvement in progress to-morrow.
Yu have hud gn at changes in Paris during th i
Jast ten years, but I believe the changes of th
lat ten weeks will be in'Jni'.ely the most strik
lis to caaiitl trlieU visiipr .j they ull'cct tU)
'qvwr'.r r' which they most icspect and look for
ward to visiting.
' Our renders may remember the day when we
thought that the Palais Jtoyal ( where no'io ly
over goes now), the Kue de Uivoli and the Hue
de la Puis were the only parts of Paris fii to ba
visited by a traveller. Tuose ideas have bi-en
dcj-troyed by boulevards andeas; b.it tho line
de la Puix alwaya held Its owu. T hero were
glittering jewclleis' wares, pretty bonnets, and
other attractions to bi seen through the flue
windows, and fo people naturally Mrnyed that
way; but any one awaking and looking out of
his window nt the Grand Hotel would now be
likely to imagine that linos had eonie auain, or
nt leat that the old Street of Peace had dis
appeared." SCIENCE.

The liritish AociuMou for the Advancement of
Science beean its tliirty-eiuhtli annual session at
Norwich, Knirbiud, on'tlm loth of August. Tho
opening; address, delivered by Dr. Hooker,
Pusident of the Association, at traded muck
atteution iu consequence" of Its bold discu-sion
of controverted po uts. Mr. D.irwin's scries of
pnpers on the fertilization of pluuU and the
new di.-covcrles in physiological botauy, were
elaborately cxpjuuded by Dr. Hjjkcr who de
claied that what I'ur ula's discoveries were to
tel prapky, Darwiu'a would prove to
rural economy. Il'iv'mg thoroughly cx
liaus'ed this subject, Dr. Hooker next
discussed tho portion now held in
tne ei'iciitife vol Id by Mr. PuiwinV theory of
the oritiiu c f species by ualiial rclection, and
contended that ihc treatise was not, as hnd been
asserted, declining in soipntitio favor; but sj far
Iroiu being a thintr ol tfio past, was an accepted
doctrine with every philosophical naturalist,
was elsewhere gaining adherents steaddy, and
wits nn avowed lavorhe with the rising schools
of naturalists. This assertion was borne out by
elaborate statetnen'stnid illustrations, by which
objections taken to tha system on geological,
nstronomical, physical, and meiaphyaical
grounds wetc answered.
Dr. Hooker also spoke of the researches now
in progress among the indicenous tiibas of
India. No limit he said can at present be ns
fcigued to the discoveries which may be awaiting
un adequate investigation of the less known
parts ot the great Indian continent, and he
added that many members of the association
would hear witu surprise that within three
hundred mil ?s of Calcutta there exists o tribe
of savages "who habitually erect dolmens,
meuares, cysts, and cromlechs almost m
gigantic in their proporlions and very similar In
appcerauec and con-.trucuon to the so-called
Druidicul remains of Western Europe." fheii
country is "dotted with groups of huge unpo
lished squared pillars nod tabular slabs sup
ported on three or four rud-i pb-rs. These blocks
some ot which are erected every ye,u' are
detached from the solid rock by successive ap
plications of heat und cold water, and then
transported to the site where they are to stand
by ropes and levels. It i3 almost Incredible
that these facts should have been known for
nearly a quarter of a century wilnout exciting
any active curiosity. Col. Yule described them
as long ago ai 1811, anl Dr. Hooker himself In
spected them in IS.jO. It is hard to say what
light may be thrown on the early history of
maukiuel by the study of these monuments
in connection with the tiabits and character ol
the i ace by which they are actually raised. How
Intact the barbarism 6: this people still ia may
he gathered from the fa'jt that they mstiro
distances by themouthfulsolbetel leaveschewed
in the journey, and hold so loose by the mr
liiitc tic that the sou commonly forgets his
father, and the sister's sou inherits. Dr. Hooker
mentions one fact in connection with their lan
guage which is at leat suggestive coincidence.
Their word for a stone is "man," aud it "as
commonly occurs in 'he names of their villages
and places as 'mnu,' 'inaeu,' 'men' does in those
of Brittany, Wales, or Cornwall.'"
In regard to the study of pre historic archaeo
logy, Dr. Hooker spoke as follows:
"A great number of eminent clergymen of all
denominations hnvc adorned science by their
writines, and rePeion by their lives and there
Is much to prove that professors of religion
need not have that fear ot science by which
many of them seem to be influenced. There
should bo a union in the search alter truth, as it
refers to the spiritual history and coudition of
niaukiiid, of the nrchieologlst, and the religious
teacher. Let eacli pursue the search lor truih,
the archaeologist into the physical, ihe religious
teacher into the spiritual history and condition
of mankind, It will be in vain that each regards
the other's pursuits from afar, and turning
the object-glass of his mind's telescope to his
eye, is content when he sees how smill the other
loots. To search edit the whence aud whither
of existence is an unquenchable instinct of
the human mind; to satisfy it, man in every
age and in every country lias adopted creels
thtit em brace the history of his past aud future,
and has eagerly accepted scknuiic truths that
support the creeds. And but for this unquench
able iustiuct I firmly believe that ueituer
religion nor science would have advanced so fur
as they have iu the estimation of any people.
Scieuce has never, iu this search, hindered the
religious aspiratious ot good aud earnest men,
nor have pulpit cautions, which are but ill dis
guised deterrents, ever turned inquiring minds
from tne revelations of science. A sea of timo
spreads its waters betweeu that period to which
the earliest traditions of our ancestors point,
and that far earlier peiiod when man first ap
peared upon the plone. For his track upon the
sea man vainly questions his spiritual teachers.
Along its hither store, if not across
it, science now offers to pilot him. Each
fresh discovery concerning prehistoric mau is
us a pier built on some rock its tide has exposed,
and from these piers will one day spring arches
that will curry him further over its deeps.
6clence, it is true, may never sound the depths
of tlut sea, may never buoy its shallows or span
its narrowest creeks; but she will still build on
every tide-washed rock, nor will she ever deem
her mission fulfilled till she has souuded its pro
foundc6t dcpth3 and r ached its further shore,
or proved the ono to be unfa'.homable and tho
other attainaole only upou evideuco not yet
revealed to mankind. Jn tho investigation of
these phenomena is wrapped up ftio past and
the futuie, the whence and the whither of m mi's
existence: aud niter a knowledge of these tho
human soul slill yearns and passionately
strives."
The r-iK'Z Canal.
From thi A Ibany Argut, August 27.
We have obtained from General Charles W.
Darling, Fntrineer-in Chief, who has recently
returned from a tour in the ha-t, tho following
interesting facts rr lutive to the Suez Caual: Tno
is rupitily advancing towards completion, and
in tho month of Oe'ober, lt'GO, the caual will be
navigable tor ships o tho largest dimensions.
The principal stations are Suez, where the canal
commences, El Guisr, Grand Chalouf, Serupiuni,
Ismalia, aud Poit Said, where it terminates.
These uiffere'ut place are inhabited by several
thousand Europeans, who are employed on thi
cur.nl. They have erected at Ismalia, the
central staton of the company, a populous city,
with broad btrccis, houes, cbuielics, parks,
and public bu'.ldings. The Viceroy of Egypt
now manifests much interest iu the success of
the enterpihe, ha, contributed largely to its
success, and until iicintly has forced manv of
its Aruo subjects to dig ou the ennai. This
system of forced Itib d-, however, has not proved
satisfactory ia itsiesidw to either the euiptoy
ei6 or employe, and ad.lle.rent plan has lately
been adopted. Tno Arabs ate now p.'dd for their
services, and under (lie pretent system manifest
a niiich greater dt-jO;iiion to work. Bauds of
these wandering sous of the Ur-uert uow mako
continual uppl ca'.'ou lor enploymeut, and
although it frequently tukes thejv a longtime
to get started, still, when they do commence,
they lubor with a wil'. Thus these swarthy men
e f Arab o, lading n"de all their ancient preju
dices legardnig lab -r, toil and delve fide by
side with ten thousand European laborers;
and thus the way is opened for
a speedy navigation of the world. Where
hand lubor cannot be made available, powerful
niuehineiy Is brought into requisition, an I by
meai s of their ortqrs and dredges tLe requisite
width and depth of tlie canal is obtained. By
moans, also, of fdeam barjes, with air tight
compartments and move able bot'omn, the cirth
and a.i.d not required lor embankment U
carried out to fca and thrown on lines of break
waters. To prevent the wisti of sand from the
Mediterranean, immense blocks of stone, welch
ing twenty tons each, maniracturo 1 at Said,
nnd by means of powerful lilting mach'nea
placed on the lighters, carried to the breakwater
line, and Flid oif iulo the sea. Those huge
blocks of stone are made ot'faud and hydraulic
lime thoioughly mixed by machinery. The
substance, soft at first. Is conveyed in' bars to
long rows of li rgc square boxes with moveable
sides, into which it is thrown. Tliis material 1
then left to hardcu in tho sun for the spae of
three months, after which tinm it becomes as
solid as a rock, and grow till haidei by ex
posure to the water.
The depth of tho canal, when finished, Is to b?
twenty six feet, and the width will vary from
one hundred and eighty to three hundred feet.
Tho European population on the line of tho
ciinal, broueht thither by the requirements of
tlie company, cannot be less than twenty thou
sand souls. The funds required for the develop
ment ot the enterprise have been obtained from
the great capitalists of Euicpe from judic ous
Investments of unemployed capital lroin In
demnity recovered throuch the instrumentality
of the Viceroy cf Egypt, and from the sale of
the domain of Onardy. The resources thus
derived appear to be three hundred an I eleven
mlilloi.s of francs, and the total expenses of the
undertaking to the time of Its completion nre
estimated at about four hundred millions of
fraucs, or sixteen millions sterling. There are
at present three modes of communication wi'.h
the Suez Canal, viz., from Alexin iriu to
Port fcaiJ, on tho Mediterranean coa-st, by
steamer or from Cairo to Benin, with corres-
ondenco for L'lgazi. The touript cm thus
renetrate to the centre of the Istamtis to Isma
lia, ou Like Timsch, by rail and th" sweet water
caual, which conveys the Nile water to the de
sert, and supplies a sutlicicncv of fresh water,
lor men and for machines. To thoroughly ia
eprct the canal, ecveu days should be occupied
iu the following manner: Assuming that the
visitor starts from Suez, one day should be there
occupied in the examination of tlie machine
shops, and docks of solid masonry. The secon I
day visit Chalouf, one of the most important
Of the company's statious. The third day,
proceed to Serapium , where a formidable em
bankment of enrth separates tho finished
from the unfinished portions of the canal. The
fourth day reach Ismalia. The fif.h day ride
over tbe deserts to El Guisr, distant some live or
fix miles from Ismalia. There will be seen
nLOther evidence of European Industry, in the
form of pretty "canton neineut" with houses for
orcratives, Christian church, and Arab mosque.
The sixth day can be employed in traversing
the distance from El Guisr to Port Said in view
ing the breakwaters, docks, machine shops ftud
the manner in which tlie b'.ouo, already alluded
to, is manufactured with taud, hydraulic lime,
aud water. Should there be uo necessity for
haste, a much loueer time might bo advan
tageously spent at each of the above-named
places.
Sight Tor tlie Blind.
From the N, T. Evening 1'ost.
The following communication is from Bcv.
Adam McClelland, pastor of tho Lawrence
Street Piesbylciian Chuicb, in Brooklyn, who
is now generally known in Brooklyn as the
Blind Preacher, "ilis account of the menus by
which he acquired his education will luterest
every per?ou who can feel for those who ure
deprived of the sense of sight, and will give
force to the wish he expresses, that "some
wealthy philanthropist" might put such moans
within the reach of other bhud persons as would
enatle thcin to wrl.e lwgibly and easily.
"To the Editors of the Evening Pod: Iu
your isfue of th3 1.1th instaut un interesting
article, headed 'A Novel Alphabet for the Blind,'
contained a description of an ingenious tacK
alphabet used for the Instruction ot some blind
persons, by Rev. C. II. Carpeuter, A.mer.can
missionary at Harpoot, katcrn Turkey. My
Interest in the blind, and the hope that the fol
lowing statemcLts may prove useful to Mr.
Cnrpeuter aud others who havo bliud persous
uuder their instruction, is my apology lor asking
a place in your valuable columns.
"While attending the Union Theological S?ra
inary in New York, I felt the ueceskity of some
method whereby I might take uotesso embossed
as to be legible to me. No such method existed
anywhere in this country or Great Britain,
except that known as the pin type, which, how
ever, lrom its slowness, 13 virtually impracti
cable. I invented a slate and alphabet which
were widely circulated among the bi nd. My
slate consists of a piece of chamois and a piece
of surgical rubber, each thirteen inches by uine,
nailed on a board somewhat larger. Ou this the
paper is placed. A movable s,trip of brass con
taining two rows of rectangular holes, thirty-six
in each row, serves as a ruler, and a small awl
or stylus completes tho apparatus. Each rec
tungie can contain six legible dots. By varying
the number and position of these dots fifty dis
tiuct legible characters caa be readily formed.
In this way I write my scrmous three or four
times more rapidly than coul 1 be doue by an
oidwary penman. Thus also a blind friend has
written all his classical exercises while a' tending
Columbia College. A similar method aud a
superior bIu'c (being metallic and grooved) has
been invented by Mr. Braille, ot Paris.
"Should Mr. Carpenter procure a lew of Mr.
Braille's slates, or construct others upon my
plun, he would enable a whole class of bliud
pupils to write their own books in a permanent
form aud with accuracy nnd ease, without be
numbing the touch. Parents aud teachers of
blind children may be pleased to know that ex
periments and ex-pcrieuco have convinced me
that all geometrical diagrams aud outliuc maps
may be readily made for the blind on good
paper, by a notched wheel at tho extremity of a
pencil. Boundaries, livers, etc., may be distin
cuished by having wheels with notches ot dif
ferent sizes. In this way the mother of ono cf
my Suuday-school scholars prepares, without
ditliculty, maps for her blind child by tracing
on the leverae side ot an ordinary ranp with her
wheel such lines as she desires to etnbo-s.
Though the child is the youngest in her class,
she is usually at the head of it, and is
bo enabled to prosecute successfully her
studies iu one of our public schools. The
young gentleman already alluded to traces iu
the same way the most difficult ligures in the
higher mutucmsuics.
' The blind jet require some method whereby
they may write in characters legible t seeing
persons. I wvh that some wealthy philanthro
pist might offer a premium sufficiently large to
induce a practical mechanic to iuvent aud
construct a cheap and simple machine for s ich
writing and printing. Adam McClelland.

Alpine Hotels.
The Fall Mall Ouzel e says:
"Twenty and even ten years nc;o it was diffi
cult to hud in Switzerland any comfortable
place of residence live r six thousuud feet
high; but low such places may bo counted
almest In Cozens. Formerly ladies, and even
men occasionally, would boast of having slop:
in a hospice; and places of that soit, where
theie was no accommodation or desire for your
continued resilience, were tho only places of
shelter within or close up to tho region of per
petual ice and snow. But the great Increase of
travelers and the laudable, however sneered
at, efforts of the members of the Alpine Ciitb,
Lave pushed hotels in abuudanco hiiih
into the upper regions of Switzerland,
wherever sunaolo spots can be found free
fiom the danger of avalanchos, easily accessible
on mules by mountain paths, and with some
opportunity for eafly walking iu the neighbor
hood. Of these the hotels ou the Iiippel aud
the Egglschorn are probably the most noted,
tho latter being over eiht thousand feet high,
While presenting at tho same time an abundance
of creature comforts, and elevated above the
great glacier system ot tho M onto Kosa group,
oilers a spleudid opportunity of tryingthe effect
of the very keenest, driest, purest, and uioit
powerful Alpino air. There are places, however,
even higher than these, such a tho Eaulhoru
Gosthof, which can uccommodato a good many
people, and the little hostelry at over ten
thousand feet, on tho perpetual snow of the lt.
Theodule pas; aud theie ure many very com
fortable hotels at lower elevation', from four
; thousand to tlx thousand leet, where the air,
! though pure and invigorating, is not so excit
ing; where there are trees to afford shelter and
diversify the scene, aud wher there h u Greater
; variety of plea-nut level walks."
Tlie Classics iu fScothnul.
Mr. 1'eai'on, iu a report on secon lary ed tea
tiou in Scotland, speaks h'unly of tne mannerlii
which the classics are taught in tne bargli
schools. He cciutnciuls the MO'.tis'i teacl. 'rs
for the constant hiiJ sktllul use ot versions"
the rendering of Entr.su Into another language
so ns to lllti-tiHie the application ol
the gramninticiil rules of the lamMine
to veiual construction and c nipo-ino'i.
This practice is very larcely carnvd
out by all the bettor cla-sic il mas.ors in tne
burgh school', and they have a lemarkiihle
tciidinogi una facility in trun-Uitiua a', sight
iuto good idiomatic La'.iu. Tho version may be
etthei oral or written, and t!v best masters
make lare use o; both kinds. 1'tom the very

tho cca-doiiul use of words Widen, however
sail' facte ry to Ernsmus, woall shook an
'liclaud" scholar, Mr. 1'earou entitres to think
that more Is caliied by the pupil In vigor and
reteutivtneEs tnau is lost in iciiucment und
eubtilty.
Mr. Kearon refers to tho Scotch method of
pronouncing the dead languages: "Whether
the r-coteii luonuuciattou ot Laitin or tireek is
really iu nuy degree un approximation to what
we may suppose to huve been tae native pro
iiui.ciatlon of either of these langtiaceg at any
given period ol its in -lory a- a hvlug tongue, l
do not," he says, "presume to inquire. I sup
pose, however, that I may safely ussume that
it is hardly possible that the fceotch pro
nunciation can be less like the true original
lliun tho .English prouunciutiou must be; und
if so, their way of pronouncing is at any rate
not urelnooloeically inferior to ours, aud not
therefore more likely to offend the ears of scho
lars and philologists, nut wuetoer ttm oe so or
not, I must eay that I think that for educational
purposes the Scotch have an advan'age over us
iu their mode of pronouncing. I thinic that
their mode ot pronouncing helps to give the
pupil a readier ms'.gnt into tne origiu. deriva
tions, philology, and relations to oue another
of the Latin and Greek languages; a clearer
appreciation ol ine connection Detween tne
Latin und the Romance languages, and a greater
practical use ot the Latin tougue."
