Not a hupdredth part Of the
testimony which might be
quickly produced under this
head can be p resented in these
columns; for it is to be met,
with, on all sides, and is almost
entirely unquestioned among
those capable OF Judging. But
let US state that a gentleman
at the head Of q very large bus
mess in this city, formerly a
member of the Massachusetts,
bar, and who has constantly
employed reporters and short
hand amanuenses, recently SAID
that a single report Of a very
long trial (ten thousand FOOLS
CAP. pages,) made by Mr.. Ora
ham, had saved him twenty-five
thousand dollars by its superb
or accuracy; and it was so
perfect even. 10 minutia, that
there was no possibility Of
finding a defective point In it.
He says that from his knowl-
edge and experience he is con
lident il could not have been so
made blythe use Of any other
system. Judge Swayne was a
disbeliever in the verbatim ac-
ecuracy9 Of reports until con-,

his wife, occupied small bed

to regret that he departed IN
any material point. But the
standard American system IS
becoming a means Of restored
unahim:ty, if we may Judge
from the considerable number
OF Graham's books which find
their way to England.
1t is calculated to- inspire
some confidence to be assured
that Mr. Graham did not under
take his foundation work, the
Hand Book, without adequate
preparation. For some years
before he began it he had be.

geiher with such additions as
his experience taught bim were
necessary, and he practiced
the art for several years with
the highest credit before pub
fishing the Hand Book.
Here was ample preparation
TO enable HIM to discover the
defects of ,Pi.man's modes and
materials, and so well has he
remedied these detects that one
can learn to write the Ameri-
can system at least one.third
laster than he can Pitman's.
Indeed, the easy style for cor
respondence, memorandums,
and common use, is as short as
Pitman's reporting style and
much easier to learn.
In one respect theN standard
American system surpasses all
others, and.on account ofwhIch
it Is fully entitled to its name.
1t is the whiting of. phrases.
Let usrsee If this can not be
made plain. EEL.
U Countthe words of the ordi
nary page, and eleven OF them
with their rspetitlons will be
found to- make one quarter of
the whole number. To make
the best use of the signs which.
we have at our disposal, these
eleven words ought to be rep
resented by the most easily
and quickly written siehs. So
it is in other proportions with
all the other words of the page.
A certain frequency marks al
so the use Of phrases; such as

master; and In spite of our
selves he becomes and must be
our teacher. If any one doubts
who is the master in the re-
