The Proposed New system.
Editors Chicago Tssbune:
"Human speech" ;" says Dr.. Webster, ttcon-
eIsts Of vocal sounds T. Z. vowels) separated
and modified by articu1ations Of the organs.
We open the mouth In a particular manner to
utter q vowel we then close the organs; IN
| terrupt thst sonnd, and open the organs to
utter second vowel, and thus opening and
! closing to the end Of the word! This process
| Is carried on with surprising rapidity."
"An articulate sound Is properly sound
preceded OF followed, or both, By junction
of the organs !; thus: ba, ab, bad, are art1cu-
late sounds, the vowe1s being begun or closed
By Junction Of the lips inter1uwing the
vuloe. Authorizations mny be considered as
equivalent to consonant, as rocal Il cqulva-
lent to vowel"
With this explanation from q standard
authority, let us proceed to examine, the list
of yoca1s aud urticulatea called the English
alphabet. 4 few fundamental rules mar be
laid down, viz:
i. Every simple sound or element should
hare n siuglo letter OK symbol to repre-
| sent It.
2: No letter should represent more than one
| sound.

A North Carolina witness.

They have queer specimen of I'M
manity in North Carolina. Everybod,
remembers the famous cousin SALLY
billiard Case" and here is one recently
reported, which is not far behind it,
The writer gives it under the head OF
illegal proceedings"
Action for work and labor done in
cutting ditch on defendants land. Plea
Payment and set off, in.bacon and corn
meal.
Paint ifs son the stand-recollects
the ditching perfectly, but seems to for.
get all about the bacon.
''You say your daddy did all this
ditchiDg? Do You know what he got
for it?" inquired Colonel G. for the de-
PENDANT.
HE never got nothing, as ever
heard on; that's what he never got, an.
swered the witness.
Didn't your daddy get corn aud ba-
con from defendant i'll payment foI
ditching?"
'.Never heard of his getting no corn
or barley"
"What did your daddy and his fami
~ live on last summer ?"
''Vittles. mostly"
"WIat kind of victuals?"
"Well, bread and meat and shome
whisky"
where did he get that meat and
bread 20
We'll, flst from one, and then from
the other"
Didn't he get some of it from de-
PENDANT ~
"He mought"
81 know that he mought, but did be:
That's the question.
"Well, he mought, and then again
you know, he moughtn't"
With considerable excitement, and in
tones of thunder
Answer the question, and no more OF
this trifling with your oath. Did your
daddy. or did he not, get corn and
bacon from the defendant for ditch
ing?"
well, now, he mought; it didn't &C.
cur edzactly, you know"
Here his Honor interferes, and with
stern, judicial frown, addresses the
witness thus:
Witness, you must answer the ques-
ton, or the Court will be compelled to
deal with you. Can't you say yes or
no 2"
II reckon"
We'll, then, answer yes or no. Did
or did not your daddy get corn or bacon
from the defendant at the time referred
to-" inquired the Court.
Witness now fully aroused and con-
scions of his danger
"Well, Judge. 1 can't edzactly re-
membar. you know, seein' as how it's
all biz dun gone and eat up; but, (plant-
ing himself firmly, as one determined to
out with it,. to the best of my rocker
leclishnn, if my memory serves me
right. he mought. and then, again, he
moughtn't."
The plaintiff saved his bacon. Yer.
diet accordingly.

incidents of the Earthquake.

Among the numerous incidents OF the
earthquake in San Francisco, as pub
lished in the papers of that city, we
note the following:
The horses in the stalls at Mr.. Col
lier's stable, numbering some sixteen or
eighteen at the time of the shock, fell
PROSTATE in their stalls simultaneously,
as if struck with lightning, and when
made to rise they exhibited every sy mp
tom of terror-trembliDg and uneasy
A lady on Howard street was washing
her infant child in a small bath tuLa
and at the nome mt of the jar, had hold
of one of its ankles. She rushed into
the street still holding the naked little
being dangling by the leg like dressed
chicken.
AT one of the churches when the first
shock came, many people got up to
leave, when the minister thinking it was
all over. raised his hands and solemnly
CALCULATED: Maintain your compos-
ure, brethren, God will protect you on
land and on sea-" At that instant,
however, the second double and twist

calculated, my Lord" cleared the pull
PIT at one bound, and was among the
first of the flock out of the fold.
On one of the streets on the water
front, a husband and his wife started
hand in hand to run, as they had sworn
TO, the race of life. When the last
shock was well going, he left his wife
aud ran like a catamount, while she
leaning against a post for support, cri-
ed out.

when the building commenced rocking
violently, some of the organ pipes came
down with loud noise, and the con-
gregation rising simultaneously, rushed
to the door, several ladies tainted, and
several fell down, but none were hurt.
A gentleman rushed out of a bath
room in one of the principal Montgom-

of all clothing except coat which he

How a Soldier Feels In Battle.

A young French officer thus writes OF
his first experience in battle
"Our officers kept us back, for we
were not numerous enough to charge
upon the enemy. This was, moreover,
most prudent, for this murderous fire,
so fatal to the white coats, did Us but
little harm. Our conical balls penetra-
ted their dense masses, while those of
the Austrians whistled past our ears
and respected persons. IG was the first
time had faced fire, nor was the only
one. Well, am satisfied with myself.
True, / lodged the first balls, but Hen.
ry w., they say, did the same at the
beginning of every battle. It is, in fact,
physical effect independent of the
will.
"But, this tribute paid, if you could
only feel how each shot electrifies you.
1t is like whip on racers legs. The
balls whistle past you, kill one, wound
another, and you hardly notice them.
You grow intoxicated, the smell of gun.
powder mounts to your brain. The eye
becomes bloodsbot, and the look is fixed
upon the enemy. There is something
of all the passions In that terrible pas
sion excited in soldier by the sight o.
blood and the tumult of battle.
Everybody who has tried it testifies
to the peculiar intoxication that is pro
ouced by being in q battle. There i,
an infatuating influence about the amel
of powder, the shrill whistle of bullet
and the sight of human blood that in
stantly transforms towards to heroes
from women, sometimes to monsters
None can tell of the nature or myster,
of that influence but those who have
been engaged in the fray themselves {.
