EXCESSIVE USE OF ADJECTivEs.

Ed. JOURNAL Your enthusiastic cor
respondent ID" may be earnest enough In
his endeavos to impress the readers Of
tile JOURNAL, but he should hear In mind
at the same time that all people are not
equally Interested with himself in old and
worn-out subjects, and some Of your read
ers may feel excessively bored by his tire
some repetitions aud ridiculous conceits.
By the way, cannot "D" understand that
the excessive use Of adjectives only weak
ems language. and nothing can be gained
by qualifying words that in themselves
convey all the force that can he given TO
them? The expression-"God, that rn-
riyalled governor of the universe" &C., is
certainly in bad tasio-uithout rival be-
ing implied in the very idea Of God. The
use OF superduous adjeclives only renders
| such expressions trite and feeble.
Your correspondent appears to lie labor
ing In dream part Of the time, for in
some Of his talk he pr"ceeds upon the
N est groundless assumptions. Such hos.
tile stale of things between different reig-
ious denominations as he describes, does
not exist at all, at least not TO the eyten:
he would have your readers believe.
