For some minutes Mr.. Seabrook was the
only one leii Of the Young Mems Christian
Association. and be finally succamhed on the
word benefited. There were only four left
Of the Amphions, Miss Matthews, and Messrs.
g. +. Moreloek. A. H. Hnber aud DIR. H. Z.
Norris. The contest between them was very
spirited Word after word was given ont By
the Pedagogue, and rapidly spelled BY the
contestants. Rarely and Sacrilegious, how.
ever, compelled DR.. Norris aud Mr.. Huber
to retire, and Miss Matthews and Mr. More
lock alone remained. Finally the word Fuch,
STA fell to Mr.. Morelock, who made an at
tempt to spell il. but not being familiar with
Il said she had never seen tho word before. =
The Referees were undecided as TO It's techni-
eality, but il was concluded 10 let the audience
decide the matter, which was done in his favor,
and the word was withdrawn. The word
fnchsia i no more entitled 10 the term tech
nicdI than myFTh, MULLEN or nlignohslls, but
10 the excitement these words, which had
been given out and correctly spelled, seemed
to have been forgotten, and many OF the au-
dienee regretted that they had voted 10 ex-
euse Mr.. MOrelock. The contest still con
tinued and the excitement increased until
Miss Matthews went down on the word dis
yllable. A motion was at once made by Hon.
John L. Smith that the Young Mems Chris.
tan Association present Miss Matthews with
a suitable memento for the efficiency she dis
played and that collection be taken up for
the purpose. Another motion was made BY
Hon. Vim. p. Maulsby that the audience be
asked to contribute, which was carried, and
Messrs. Smith and Manlsby were appointed
collectors. The amount realized was nearly
SIS, which was presented to Miss Matthews
by Judge MAulsby, 10 few remarks, for
which she expressed thanks. The audience
whenever word was missed would clap their
hands, and msmber Of the orchestra would
make hideous noise With one Of the horns,
The Bee closed about 10 o'clock, and all re-
tired delighted with the entertainment.
Mr.. Seabrook requests US to say that Mr..
Basil EnglAr's failure was owing to his sug-
gestion, made q short time before entering
the Hall. Both Webster and Worcester give
Two vsys Of spelling the word, viz: ''refera-
ble' and s'referTihle. He did not consider
these two ways Of spelling as constituting two
distinct words, and suggested TO Mr. EDgiar
that Il might be spelled correctly either way.
As the word came to him be took Mr.. Sea-
brooks suggestion and was ruled out If
that ruling vas correct, Mr.. S. says be is 70.
sponsible Tor Mr.. Rnssr's failuFo as no Raa
well acquainted with the word.
