BAD FOR NORTHERN INSTRUCTORS.
III. Rives Pollard" is out in the Richmond
papers with prospectus for the revival of the
Richmond Examiner, to be devoted, amongst
other things, TO teaching the South squire and
classick English, distinct from the models and
redeemed from the innovations of Northern
instructours."
Pollard's prospectus is a curiosity, in the
pains taking shown to restore all the surplus
age Of silent letters rejected by Webster. John
Randolph, in his hatred of New England and
New England manufactures, used to ayow a
willingness TO walk five miles any time to kick
a sheep. Pollard shows cheerful readiness
to 60 quite as far to give a kick to a New
England speller s.- .rHn
1t is amusing to notice the elaborate phrases
he gets up to affsrd an opportunity to lug in
such exploded spellings as ssinstructour," ola.
bour," "honour," "vigour," ssheroick,n "top
ick," "publick," 'spatriotiek." "poIiticks,n& &c,
&c. Our city Board Of School Trustees, by the
way, have here salutary warning, in the ex-
ample of Mr.. Pollard, OF what Webster phobia
leads to.
Various intimations have been given ont of
brooding discomfort amongst the chivalry thar
might burst out at some unexpected moment
in an appalling blaze. Nobody could have
imagined, however, that il would find vent in
spelling politics with a X! r.F
