CAPE GIRARDEAU, MISSOURI, SATURDAY, JUNE 90 1895.
OUR TWO LANGUAGES.
One Used in Conversation. the Other
in Written English.


A writer in the current number o
the Educational Review" preface.
an extremely interesting article OF
English literature in the college by
the declaration, 1T is now, / think
generally admitted that the first prin
ciple of rhetoric is. write as you speak
The pedantic. declamatory, LatinizeC
diction that prevailed in literary cir
cles hundred years ago is no longer
the standard Kings English. In order
to write we'll, it is necessary first tC
speak well-that is, to speak naturally
correctly and strongly.
This is "A clever and cunning, as
well as complete begging of the whole
question. The assumption that we,
English and Americans, speak as we
write, and that the ordinary rules OF
rhetoric and grammar run through
and underlie oral. as we'll as written
language, IS an assumption which can
not be verified by evidence. The man
who says don't" and cant" and
''isn' t." and who talks about him
and me" when he means ''he and |. -
or who says done" for did" or
seen" for saw" can take his pen
or pencil in hand and write English
which is unexceptionable from the
standpoint of person. mood or tense,
the fact being that written language is
a refinement and. possibly. an i'm
provement on spoken language, but at
the same time as different from it as
the dialect of Yorkshire from that of
or the talk of Yankeeland
from the patois of the uplands of
North Carolina or the lowlands of
Louisiana.
The writer of the article in question
has fallen into the rhetorical error of.
as the vernacular has it, putting the
cart before the horse. Every written
language. protected and fenced in as
it may be by rhetorical fences and
hedges. each of which is bristling with
rules and safeguarded by exceptions
to those rules. is only development
from spoken language, and whether
it be an improvement or not is an
open question. At all events il must
be apparent to every student of
language or philology that We have,
at least in English. two separate and
distinct languages, and that if we
should attempt to follow the dictum of
he writer in the Educational Re-
Tiew," and write as we speak. our
to current literature
would be speedily sidetracked into the
EDITORS waste-paper basket. 1t might
oe better for the genius of the English
anguage, and for the preservation
'f its integrity, that We should speak
Is we write, but to adopt the converse
and write as we speak
eems the very climax of absurdity to
hose who know and appreciate the
distinction between English ''as she is
Trote" and ''as she is spoke. San
francisco Chronicle.

SHE SAVED THE TRAIN.
A Pretty Girl Station Agent Pre-
vented A Disastrous Wreck.

RICH HILL, Mo-, June 26.-The sta
ton agent for the Memphis road at
Sprague is pretty young miss of 10
summers. During the wind storm last
night two box cars were blown through
the switch from the side track to the
main line track. Realizing that the
West-bound express, due there in a
few minutes, would surely collide with
the cars, the pretty young miss took
her lantern and, running the track
three-quarters OF a mile, tagged the
train. There were several passengers
aboard the express, and when they
realized what had been done by the
young lady rounds of applause went up
in her favor.
