Effect of Provincialisms Persons bred in these localities, and in Ireland and Scotland, retain more or less of their provincialisms; and, therefore, when they move into other districts, they become conspicuous for their peculiarities of speech.

Correction of Errors in Speaking. To correct these errors by a systematic course of study would involve a closer application than most persons could afford, and require more space than we can devote to the subject.
