“TBE BODND TABLE.”
In 'The Bound Table of the Othmstis to.
he found a long critique On a work entitled
Vulgarisms and other Errors of ,Speech,,
published by Claxton, Remsen, and Haffol
other Errors of Speech would treat with
mlcnt contempt an effusion equally silly
that Table has vented
on his book, but the critique iso violates the
canons of criticism, so betrays an animus not
its ostensible motive, that., taking it in con- .
rection with the habitually arrogant.course
of The Round Table, the author cannot re
sist the temptaUon to proveJliat tlm critical
acumen of The Round Table is not equal to
a -' by examining the style
of a critic who did not stint his denuncia
tion of that which.he found in Vulgarisms
and other Errors of Speech.
"Verbal criticism has somehow of late en
grossed so muck space in Tho Round Table that
% is with some reluctance wo givo much mova to
the examination of any book of it which cannot
show good claims upon our readers attention.
"Somehow” is colloquial. No man with
a delicate ear could write “ ft is” and “ oft t,
in so close connection, unless there were a
connection in thought, if not in emphasis,
between tho its, and no such connection
exists. The Round Table having told us
that, it had given ‘‘so much space,’ it.
scarcely needed to tell us that it was re- .
luctant to give “much more:” that was a
matter of course. What an elegant phrase,
too,is “any book of it!” The sentence should
be altered to read thus :—“ Verbal criticism
has of late so engrossed space in The
Round Table, that, with some reluctance, ,
we give more to the examination of any
book on the subject which cannot show
good claims upon our readers’ attention.
As a specimen of perspicuity, which wo
are informed by the precept and practice .
of the highest authorities is the first quality
in style, take the concluding sentence of
the first paragraph of the critique :
“ In general, one makes his way quito placidly
through a succession of sufficiently rcspcctablo
though immature commonplaces, and only comes
\vpon one, indication of individuaUt}', which mam
fesls itself in an excessively disagrecablo manner
in what might reasonably be taken for tho last
of the chapters alluded to on tho title-page, wore
there not another so labelled as to mark its own
identity, while, for that matter, so is the chapter
in question.” ' .
The indication of individuality which
baused a confusion of ideas capable of
producing such a sentence, must have
been excessively disagreeable. The author
•suspects, if he has, which he somewhat
•doubts, caught a glimpse of meaning in the
preceding quotation, that the critic came
.across some instruction which was all the
more unpalatable because lie was conscious
■of needing a large dose. Putting that aside,
what is an immature commonplace? Com
monplaces are never more or less than
commonplaces; in .conformity with which
principle, not even The Round Table can
dignify the commonplace with which it
begins its next paragraph: “Language after
all —unless for one who follows Talleyrand,
etc., etc. —every one has heardTt ad nauseam.
Just below the last-quoted remark, the
critic Bays :
“ Beside [besides] his unvarying shortcoming
in the employment of a shambling, ungainly style
in a work that especially demands a clear and
simple one,' our anonymous author frequently
lapses not merely into inexaetnessos, but into
downright blunders."
It strikes the author as strange that the
critic should charge him with using a shamb
ling, ungainly style, when, in another place,
he is said to write “with a plodding ac
curacy that admits no serious blunders.”
But it strikes the author as stranger still,
if his “unvarying shortcoming in the em
ployment of a shambling, ungainly style
was so evident to the critic, that the critic
did not acknowledge him to be a pretty good
writer, as he could not write badly if he tried.
„ The critic continues:
“ lie bus, for instance, a chapter on the em
ployment of superfluous negatives, yet we find
repeatedly throughout the book such moaningless
phrases as, ‘ How often do wo not hear her intro
duce it' (]). 1H). ‘ How often is not this propri
ety ignored’ (p. 170 J."
In Vulgarisms and other Errors of Speech,
the sentences quoted by the critic are fol
lowed by a note of exclamation. In such
sentences the negative form is the em
phatic one. The phrase, How often do
we hear her introduce it,” pronounced with
the best exclamatory emphasis, is but a
question, implying that the answer could
enumerate the number of times, they are
so few : but the phrase “How often do we
not hear her introduce it,” is a pure excla
mution, implying only the mental response,
that the number of times she does introduce
it are too numerous to mention. The
same observations hold true of the positive
and the negative forms of all similar sen-
fences.
The critic wishes to be informed how the
Author could say l haft he writers always cor
rect their ‘proofs/ which [in the case cited]
evidently enough, is precisely what they fail
t n do.’" A man corrects according to the light
that is in him. Doubtless the critic cor
rected the “ proofs” of what he deeme.d his
well-written remarks, but the author is en
gaged in showing him errors which he did
not detect. Correction does not ensure posi
tive, hut relative accuracy, in which ap
proximation to perfection is dependent on
qualities possessed in different degrees by
different individuals.
The critic continue^: —
“One example of misapplication [of the terms
gentleman and lady] is thus put (p. 41),‘Were
to say of a certain person, she is a well-dressed
iladv, the expression would imply that ladies
may not.he well dressed; which is not a fact,
taste in dress being a characteristic of a lady/
all which is true in a sense, yet we have
known an instance, we are sorry to say, of a lady
anything but well-dressed, almost in rags in fact,
yet with the evidences of culture and gentle
blood as unmistakable as if she sat in her car
riage; our author, we are convinced, would not
deny her the title. On the other hand, he quotes
from a boarding-house advertisement for ‘two
respectable young ladies/ and ejaculates, * as if
ladies could be other than respectable!' —to which
•one might rejoin [reply], as if lady implied the
possession of moral, and not merely .of social,
attributes, whereas respectability, in its own de
gree, involves both.”
The author did not say that dress , but
that taste in dress , is a characteristic. of
a-lady, that its appropriateness to occasion
is its marked excellence. A lady nearly
'' in rugs was a somewhat exceptional case, in
- which there was no opportunity for the exer
cise of laste. But, really, this is an extra
ordinary case, if we try to reconcile. the
critic's statements,- for he says that lady
implies not moral, but social attributes ; so
this lady of whom he speaks revealed her
self by the social attribute of rays. That
is the only legitimate conclusion, as rags,
in any case, cannot be regarded as a moral
attribute.
What tbe author says in his book is that
a gentlewoman is generally well dressed,'
with ever’ so few clothes, and a vulgar
woman is ill dressed with ever so many.
The ease of a gentlewoman without means
io procure clothes has nothing to do with
FRETENSION ■ Of
flic difference in the habits of dressing of
refined people and vulgar people who liaro
plenty of clothes.
The author’s creed m.rolation4o the point
under discussion can' be found on page 47
of Vulgarisms and other Errors of Speeob,
thus expressed“ A gcntlcmnn is a gontlc
mnn, and a Indy is a lady, irrespective ot
their position in th'e world. The elements
are intrinsic.’’ The author cannot agree
with The Round Table in thinking that the
character consists in the possession of 80-
cinl, and not of mbrnl“imrlbttres;-but on thc
contrary, holds that the character consists
in moral, and not in social attributes, and
that the titles of gentleman, lady, gentle
woman, are but the guinea’s stamp.
The space allotted to this article doos not
enable the author to notice all the mistakes
of the critic, whose wretched placing of
adverbs, obscurities of stylo, and clumsy
affectation of ease, mark almost every sen
tence of his production. Only a few speci
mens of the most grievous faults can be
given. We conio to a question of taste.
The critic writes: —
“Such oxecrablo coinages ns die fellowship
(given by the last edition of Wobstcr, alone
among dictionaries, and justified there by this
quotation from The Freewill Baptist Qanrtor
-1y(!1: ‘An nttompt to disfcllowship an evil, but
to fellowship the evil-doer’), and which wo ljavo
i.-.tcly with horror seen making its way into tho
columns not merely of suoh organs of tlio evan
gelical slums as The Church Union, eto.
As a question of taste, what does the
reader think of “ evangelical slums . And,
incidentally, as a question of elegance in
writing, what does the reader think of, and
which we have lately,” instead of, “ which
we have lately ?” . ,
In the interest of sterling criticism the
critic finally waxes wroth and exclaims :
“Itisin this pusillanimity, which evades conflict
With every really formidable enemy, which de
clines to give the name of tho newspapers to
which his vulgarisms are frequently, attributed,
that we find tho most displeasing feature of our
author's work.”
It was because “our author” thought that
he saw, as he still thinks that he sees, in
the ruthless severity that is often indulged in
under the pretence of frank, fearless criti
cism, tlrefrustration of the good which might
be subserved were the criticisms as devoid of
malice as they purport to be, that he, al
though shielded by his anonymous charac
ter, directed his attack against errors as
errors, and not against special perpetrators
of them, and for this singleness of pur
pose. it is natural that he should be taken
to task by tlio common scold of news
paperdom. Had he needed a fair mark at
which to level shafts, he could not have
wished for a better one than The Round
Table. Its right to assume the lofty tone
which it adopts, is decided by many an
article besides its criticism on Vulgarisms
and other Errors of Speech.
In The Round Table of Jan. 25th, page
Gl, a correspondent asks, whether,, in the
following lines from Lord Derby’s transla
tion of the Iliad,You/ should be in the sin
gular number, and warriors in the'plural.
*yUe vengeance, deep and deadly; whence to Groove
Unnumbered ills arose; which many a soul
Of mighty warriors to the viewless shades
Untimely sent.” v
The Round Table answers
« Uni-nors we think, should be singular; hut
we arc not prepared to say that, especially with
a different punctuation from that given by our
correspondent, tho phrase in the second and third
verses is ungrammatical.”
The Round Table then thinks it possible
to say, “which many a soul of mighty
warrior .” It does not know that the
English idiom “Many a soul” is equivalent
to “ many souls,” and therefore we could
not say “Many souls of mighty warrior.”
“ Full many a gem of rarest ray serene
The dark unfathom’d caves of ocean bear:
Full mauy a Uowor is born to blush unseen.
And wuato ita sweetness on the desert air.’’
“Full many a gem of purest ray,” and,
“ Full many a flower is,” are both singular
in form but plural in meaning, and so ( is
“many a soul” in the sentence “many a
spul of mighty warriors.”
In the same issue of the Round Table,
and just below the question and answer
commented on,' another correspondent in
quires which of the, jyfcients originated the
.saying rvolh (Know tbysell). The
Round Table cannot answer. The inability
o answer that question, and that as to who
tired the Temple of Diana at Ephesus, used
10 entitle a boy to' “ go down tail.”
In the same issue of The Round Table,
on the same page also, and in the left hand
upper corner of it, The Round Table
informs its readers that, —
“Mr. (leorge Washington Moon is about to
publish another philological volume, liad Eng
lish, illustrations whereof are said to be largely
ndduiwd from the columns of The London Times,
ami l’nll Mull Gazette.”
Illustrations are cited, passages are quoted,
and arguments and facts are adduced.
The Round Table of March 21st, on page
IStl, says, in speaking of an English gram
mar just published,—
“Latin furnishes in its full accidcnco the
proper field for the dcvelupcnuait of that science;-
nod as for its being a dead language, it might ho
si ill deader [?) than it is, devoid even of a par
ental relation to the English, and, for the pur
pose of inculcating the theory of grammar by mere
unmeaning symbols, be thereby only the fitter
instrument Mr. Marsh told us
long ago that the infinitive and subjunctive modes
were moribund in English.”
Hear the answers to two of the questions
lately asked by commissioned examiners
into the condition of the Public Schools in
England: —
“Lord Clarendon. —What measures do
you now take to keep up English at Eton?
Ans. There are none at prese’nt, except
through the ancient languages.
Lord Clarendon.—You can scarcely learn
English reading and writing through
Thucydides ?
Ans. No.”
Now for the second point, Mr. Marsh’s
opinion that tho “ infinitive and subjunotive
modes were moribund in English.” In the
first place, Mr. Marsh does not sag so. Ho
says, “ The subjunctive is evidently pass
ing out of use, and there is goqd reason to
suppose that it will soon become obsolete
altogether. The compound, past infinitive
also formerly very frequent, is almost dis
used.” Now, the compound past infinitive
is not the infinitive mood, it is only a part
of the infinitive mood.
The Round Table, like everything else,
is responsible for what it approves. The
legal maxim “ qui facit r er alium, facit per se,”
holds good here. Let us therefore go a
little more deeply into this question.
The author deems it no disparagement
to Mr. Marsh, to say, that even the statement
which he really makes cunuot be accepted
on hiß mere ipse dirit, except by people who
do not do their own thinking. These ques
tions must be tried on their own merits.
On examining further what Mr. Marsh says,
we find that u amounts only to the statement,
that sueli phrases as “should have aided.to
have destroyed,'' are becoming obsolete, and
the proper form, should have aided to de
stroy, is becoming usual. But the latter
form'always was good usage, and the former
always was a recognized error, although
often committed in the heat of composition,
by-good writers. But even if thelatterusage
become general, there is still such need of

"Mr. Mnrsli, is not tbd infinitive "mood, but
an always recognized error in the applica
tion of the past infinitive, > ‘
■ let us now consider Mr. Marslx’s state*
incut regarding the moribund condition of
the subjunctive, mood. The subjunctive,
mood exists in the mind, just as the indica
tive mood exists there, and it will continue
to exist as long ns contingency os to future

is moribund in relation, to.thc subjunctive
mood; is what was described by Mr. Marsh
as moribund' in the infinitive-mood —a too
prevalent error in its application: Ina word,
whnt is moribund in the subjunctive mood
is its former frequent application to indica
tive conditions. . , ....
If there is-among tho Knights of The
Round Table, any difference, of degree, the
author hopes that, in future, they will ap
point to joust with him a champion that j
has more skill than to brenk a lan'oo so
awkwardly, and understands the lnws of
chivalry bettor than to throw away “the
arms of courtesy,” and charge at oiitrance
on a nameless adventurer, who touched not
the shield of any member of their brilliant
Order.
