The Literary and Scientific Society of this village, held its first meeting on the evening of Wednesday, the 30tle ult. Mr, Wm. - N. Watson read! paper on " The desirability of placing the English language on a Phonetic basis," of which the following is a brief abstract. Mr . 1,Vatson began by saYing that a civilized nation was as much distinguish- ed , from a sa.vasee one by the power it possessed to hold communion with the thoughts of the absent and the dead, through the medium. of written language, as man himself was elistirignished. from the brute, iby the attributes of .reason and speeeh., and that he is indebted for the benefits which are the concomitants of civilized life to the gralel ideas and truths which have been made permanent by means of alphabetic writing. From this be argues the importance of every diviaual being posseasei with an easily a.cciuired femilierityeseith the art of read- ing and writing. Hearing then explained what spoken languages really consisted olf, he showed that the original ideas of alphabetic writing was simply' to tepee - Sent the phonetic elements of speech by - characters which could be easily traced by the hand. Pointingout the phonetic elements which belooged to the Engli3h language, le showed the disa,dvantages which arose from a departure from the original' idea --alphabetic' writing be showed the fundamental defect of our present alphabet, of attempting to retire - sent its 34 phonetic elements by only the 2-2 effective letters 1which the alphabet contained, and howlfiom the irregular aneEcapricious use of the letters, nthe pre- nouciation and spelling of eh -nest every word of the language had to be learneddi individually, instead ef making the 1 t- ters of the alphabet to be a perfect key a, written board, as reason and , online n sense would dictate, ortheopists had ac- cumulated page upon page of abortive at- tempts to reduce English spelling to sys- tem ---that the evils of our present ortho- graphy were perpetueteci by the narrow mindecloess, the conservatism and pedan- try of portentuens learning that stupidi- ty parades the art of calling things by ther wrong names, "the proper method of spelling words." He showed wherein lay the real pbstaeles of popular educe- - sstiorte. ieteErud as well as in Canada, and holy -the obstacles could be at once effectually removed by the commen sense plan of dealing with the letters of the al- phabete as in dealing with Anything else, which 'was of having a name for every- thing; and of calling everything by its own name, and not by calling, for exam- ple, a certain object a stool at One tine, a etove at another, snd a (boot -jack at an- other, which was precisely the way adopted in the use of the letters of our. alphabet. He summed up with a brief statement of the disadvanteges arising from the present spelling and comparing these severally with the advantages- which phonetic spelling would confer - one of which advantages he pointed out . the more general use Of our languages,-- imongst toreigtiers as -a pre -requisite for o be f sele eve f e u ns w e on ound sel ambi who un and, in f • ces if t don't th atraightf Reeee h I years, s, ems, uftatiimohs ap the township.
