tor of the Register:

Local Editor OF the Register:
Will you allow me space in your
columns in which to say that it has
become habit with me to write the
word grammar with an a, and not an e,
in the last syllable Several times,
however, your compositor, undoubtedly
supposipg that | have not studied my
spelling book and dictionary with suffi.
Gent care, has very considerably IN
dertaken to correct my photography by
placing an where had ventured to
employ an a. Again, have been &C.
customed to regard the term grammar
school, as having somewhat tech.
nical Specification, and in the character
OF a proper name; hence have thought
fit to make use OF capitals at the begin
ming of the simple words of which the
term is composed. Your compositor
has mercifully undertaken to set me
right by substituting small letters for
the capitals. Now, Mr.. Local. | am in
nowise inclined to find fault with your
compositor on account Of his benevolent
intentions; but l may, nevertheless, be
INDUCED in asking him to honor me in
the future by suffering any articles OF
mine which may fall into his hands to
90 to press without an attempt on his
part to correct errors which, in bis
judgment, the manuscript may contain,
and for which | alone can be respon-
sible. Respectfully yours,
F. S. WILLIAMS.
The substitution Of the re, referred
to by Mr.. Williams, was typographical
error, not an intentional change. AS
regards capitalization each printing
office in the country has its own style,
from which 1t never departs. Some pa
pers are very profuse in the use of cap
itals. The New York Tribune is an
example Of this class. On the contrary
the New York Herald ls very conserva.
tive in this particular. This office has
its rule and in working to it such words
as public schools" grammar schools"
market house" and the like, are never
capitalized. Our correspondent can gee
at glance the necessity OF such a rule
as that referred to. He has one style
ofcapitalizing, some other correspondent
another and a third style entirely diff.
ferent from either. II we followed each
we should be continually changing in
style and as continually be in confusion
about it.
