Mark Twain on Spelling Matches.

I 1 hr Mature of the entertainment was an
j Ur.iuctorj speech by Samuel L. Cle
I '.".(Mark Twain). He said :
f L'"';Vs ('cnth-mcttI have been
j ,1R,r0(l with the office of introducing these
I 1 n,K.liing orthographical solemnities with
1. 'remarks. The temperance crusade
I pt ,o land some time ago that is, that
I va-t portion of the land where it was needed
j l,ut it skipped Hartford. Xow comes
I cW spelling epidemic, and this thime
! v -ire stricken.' So I suppose we needed
the a miction, x uu l aa u uouiu
fr I don't see any use in spelling a word
j.j.rht and never did. I mean 1 don't see
ai!y u-e in lming a uniform and arbitrary
wav of spelling words. We might as well
mVke all clothes alike and cook all dishes alike,
fiamciicss is tiresome ; variety is pleasing. I
bave a correspondent whose letters are al
wavs a refreshment to me, there is such a
breezy unfettered originality about his or-

a lar-re K. Now that, is just as good as to

1VI'S lilVv
Piiperb effects can be produced by variega
ted spelling. Now there is Ulind Tom,
the musical prodigy. He always spells a
word according to the sound that is carried
to his ear. And lie is an enthusiast in
orthography. "When you give him a word,
lie shouts it out puts all his soul into it.
I once heard him called upon to 5pell
oralis outang before an audieuce. He said,
). r-a-n-g.orang, g-e-r.ger, oranger, t-a-n-g,
tanir, orange ger tang !" Now a body can
respect an orang-outang that spells his name
in a vigorous way like that. But the fee
ble dictionary makes a mere kitten of him.
In the old times people spelled just as they
pleased. That was the right idea. You
had two chances at a stranger then. You
knew a strong man from a weak one by his
iron-clad spelling, and his hand-writing
helped you to verify your verdict.
Some people have an idea that correct
Mx-lli:r.r can be taught and taught to any
body. " That is a mistake. The spelling
faculty is born in a man, like poetry, music,
and art. It is a gift ; it is a talent. Peo
ple who have this gift in a- high degree,
un!v need to see a word once in print, and
it is furever photographed upon their mem
ory. They can not forget it. People who
haven't it mut be content to spoil more or
h-s likt like thunder and expect to
..linter the dictionary wherever their or
thographical lightning happens to strike.
There are 114.ii)0 words in the unabriged
dictionary. I know a lady who can spell
only ISO of them right. She steers clear
of all the rot. She can't learn any more.
So her letters always consist of those con
tautly recurring ISO words. Now and
then, when sh-finds herself obliged to
wrUe upon a subject which necessitates the
itse of some other words, she well, she
don't write on that subject. I have a re
lative in New York who is almost sub
limely gifted. She can't spell any word
right. There is a game called Yerbarium.
A dozen people are each provided with a
sheet of paper, across the top of which is
written a long word like a kaleidoscopical,
or something like that, and the game is to
hee who can make up the most words out
of that in three minutes, always beginning
with the initial letter of that word. Upon
one occasion the word chosen was coffer
dam. When time was called everybody
had built from five to twenty words except
this young lady. She only had one word
calf. We all studied a moment and then
s;iiJ, -Why there is no 1 in cofferdam."
Then we examined her pajer. To the
eternal honor of that uninspired, uncon
scious, sublimely independent soul be it said,
she had sjK.lt that word ;caff !" If anybody
here can spell call any more sensibly than
that,kt him step to the front and take his
imlk.
Early Bibles.
A printer's widow in Germany, while
a new edition of the bible was beinjr prin
ted in Iter Louse, one uiirht entered the
office to alter the .sentence of subjection to
her husband pronounced upon h.ve, in
(ieuc.sia, ehyp. '6, v. 1 0. She removed the
two first letters of the word ''licit' and
substituted Nil' in their place, thus alter
ing the sentence from ';aml lie shall be thy
Lord,' ryrjc to "and he shall be thy Fool,"
AW. It is said her life paid for this in
tentional erratum, and that some secreted
copies have been bought up at enormous
prices.
The '-Pearl IJibles," amonc; the earliest
Tinted, were of full inaccuracies. The
errors are said to have been in a great part
voluntary passages omitted and inter
polated, and meanings forged sometimes
to sanction the new creed of some new
fleet, and sometimes to destroy scriptural
authority by a confusion or au omission of
texts. Jt is said that one edition oi the
1'carl Bible swarii.cd with six: thousand
errors.
In a later edition the negative iu the
seventh commandment was omitted so that
it read "Thou shalt commit adultry." For
which the archbishop laid upon the pub
lishers one of the heaviest penalties ever
recorded in the annuals of the press.
It ;tpj.urs by a calculation made by the
printer of .Stevens Jvlition of Shakesc 2ear,
that every octavo page of that work con
tains 2,(j0 pieces of metal ; this iu a sheet
Miou'its to -12,880 the misplacing of any
one of which would inevitably cause a blun
der With this curious fact before us, the
accurate state of our printing iu general is
to be admired, and errata ought more free
ly to pardoned than the fastidious minute
ness of the insect eye of certain critics has
allowed.
A V'rominct. iti.ii rm Vr1ion street
ho is the pruud Mjssessor of a handsome
daughter, went home to tea, the other
evening, and .said to his wife; "Mother, 1
have anally succeeded in my petition for a
"t utup on our street, ana it is gonn.
tj be st-t up directly in front of our gate !'
A sudden scream and a heavy fall sounder
oin the next room. The affrighted par
cuts rushed in there. Their daughter laj
frostruts ca the fW. She had fainted.
