The author has attempted to bring together in this little volume the principles which should govern conversation among persons of true refinement of mind and character, and to point out some of the most common and easily besetting vulgarisms occurring in the colloquial English of our country and day. Part I. is an Address delivered before a Young Ladies’ School, in Newburyport. Part II. is a Lecture addressed to the Literary, Scientific and Mechanics’ Institution at Reading, England. Part III. is a reprint from the fourth English edition of 'A Word to the Wise, or Hints on the Current Improprieties of Expression in Writing and Speaking,' by Parry Gwynne, a few passages not applicable to the habits of American society being omitted. Part IV. is composed of selections from two little English books, entitled, 'Never too late to Learn: Mistakes of daily occurrence in Speaking, Writing and Pronunciation corrected;' and 'Common Blunders in Speaking and Writing.'
