In revising this book, care has been taken to preserve all the excellences that have so long and so favorably distinguished McQuffey's Eclectic Spelling Book: and the chief changes that have been made, have been suggested by the evident plan of the original work.
The old system of indicating the pronunciation by numerals, called "superiors," has been abandoned, and the diacritical marks used by Webster have been adopted. The Revised Speller conforms in orthography, pronunciation, and syllabica- tion to Webster's International Dictionary. Exercises have been given on each of the distinctive marks used in the book, as will be seen by reference to Lessons 36-57.
A number of lessons have been added in the department of prefixes and suffixes, and now nearly all the more common of these etymological principles have been explained. (See Les- sons 136-167.)
In arranging the text of the several lessons, the object has been not to appeal merely to arbitrary memory, b^t to asso- ciate each lesson with some principle of sound, meaning, or accent, which would tend to aid the pupil in acquiring a knowledge of our language. Several distinct lessons on pro- nunciation are given, and towards the close of the book nu- merous lessons of difficult words in orthography have been introduced.
Instead of indicating silent letters by italics, as has hitherto been done, a new type has been made in which such letters are canceled, thus enabling the pupil to discover their status at a glance.
The pages have been enlivened, as in the other books of this Series, by attractive engravings.
The publishers take pleasure in acknowledging the valu- able services of W. B. Watkins, D. D., who planned and executed this revision.

THE ENGLISH ALPHABET.
The English Alphabet consists of twenty-six letters, viz.: a, 6, c, d, e,f, g, h, i, j, k, /, m, n, o, p, q, r, 8, t, u, v, w, x, y, z.
Letters are divided into Vowels and Consonants.
The Vowels are those letters which can be perfectly- sounded without the aid of any other letter. The vowels are a, e, t, o, w, vo^ and y.
The vowel sounds of w and y are the same as those of u and X. A and o are always vowels. E, i, xi, w^ and y are sometimes consonants.
A Diphthong is the union of two vowels in one sound.
When hoih vowels are sounded, the diphthong is called Proper, because then it is really a diphthong, or d(niible sou7id; that is, the sounds of the vowels unite; as, oi in oil; ou in sound.
When only one of the vowels is sounded, the diphthong is called Improper, because then, as one of the vowels is silent, it is not properly a diphthong, though it takes that name; as, oa in boat, ui in suit, where a and i are silent.
The following diphthongs are in common use, viz.: oi, oy, ou, ow, ae, ai, au, aw, ay, ea, ei, eo, eu, ew, ey, ia, ie, oa, oe, lui, xie, xii; as in toil, boy, round, plow, seal, coal, head, sail, say, axight, yeoman. Of these, oi, oy, ou, and ow are gener- ally proper diphthongs ; though sometimes ou and ow are improper, as in famoxis, where o is silent, and in sbw, where w is silent.
A Triphthong is the union of three vowels in one sylla- ble; as, eau in beau, iew in view. The triphthong is properly a union of letters, not sounds.

W, in its vowel sounds, corresponds with u; as in new (pro. nu). A has, in a few words, the sound of 6; as in any (jyro. 6n'ny). U has, in a few words, the sound of ^; as in bury (pro. b^r'ry) ; or that of i, as in busy (pro. bTz'y')*
OF THE CONSONANTS.
The Consonants are those letters which can not be per- fectly sounded without the aid of a vowel. The consonants are 6, c, d, /, g, h, j, k, I, m, n, p, q, r, s, t, v, x, z, and sometimes e, i, u, w, and y. The consonants are divided into Mutes and Semivowels.
The Mutes are those consonants that admit of no sound without the aid of a vowel. They are 6, d, k, p, q, t, and c and g hard.
■^NOTE.— The u is canceled in this book when qu is sounded like k.
6 ECLECTIC SERIES.
The Semivowels are those consonants that can be sounded imperfectly by themselves. They are /, /i, J, I, m, n, r, 8, V, a:, 2, and c and g soft.
Four of the semivowels are called Liquids; viz., i, m, n, and r. They are called liquids because they unite so readily with other sounds, or flow into them.
OF SYLLABLES AND WORDS.
A Syllable is a sound, or a combination of sounds, uttered by a single impulse of the voice : it may have one or more letters; as, a, bad, bad-ness.
A Word is either a syllable or a combination of sylla- bles; as, not, notion.
A word of one syllable is called a Monosyllable ; as, man.
A word of two syllables is called a Dissyllable; as, manly.
A word of three syllables is called a Trisyllable; as, manliness. Words of more than three syllables are called Polysyllables.
Accent is a stress of voice placed upon some one sylla- ble more than the others. Every word composed of two or more syllables has one of them accented. This accent is denoted by a mark C) ^^ ^^^ ^nd of the accented syllable; as, mid'night, aban'don.
A Primitive Word is one which is not derived from any other word ; as, man, great, full.
A Derivative Word is one which is formed from some other word h^ adding something to it; as, manful, greatness, fully.
A Simple Word is one which is not composed of more than one word; as, hind, man, stand, ink.
A Compound Word is one that is composed of two or more simple words; as, inkstand, text-book.
Spelling is naming or writing the letters of a word.

DiCTATiOx\ Exercises.
Note to Teachers. — These lessons are intended as exercises in the meaning as well as the spelling of words. Distinguish carefully words of similar sound, but which differ in their spelling. At the recitation the sentences should be read aloud by the teacher, and the pupils required to write them out neatly and correctly upon their slates or on the black- board.
He ate seven or eight apples. Send the pale maid with the pail of milk. He owed for the paper on which he wrote an ode to the moon. We are not quite ready for the quiet man. Age gives edge to wine. He said the idol looked like a satyr. Clever satire often rouses the idle.

The lamb is a dumb animal. He climbed the hill to the tomb, but his limbs became numb. Comb your hair, but do not thumb your book. Bombs are now commonly called "shells."

Lesson 81.
Dictation Exercises.

They were to seize the fort, and cease liring. They aifect great grief; but do not effect their purpose. Do you dissent from my opinion ? The hill was difficult of descent. A decent regard for others' ills is human. They advise the young to take the advice of the old. The enemy will invade the rich prov- ince. They were strongly inveighed against.

The ensign would not sign the paper. His design was known. He maligned his rival, and suffered condign punishment. A benign face. He was arraigned after the campaign.

The awl is used by all shoemakers. He said that he would do aught that he ought to do. The man who stole the bale of goods gave bail. The Bey rode a bay horse around the bay. Deer break through the brake and brush. He had just lain down in the narrow lane. The horse with the long mane ran through the main street of a town in Maine. Which of the pair of fine pears will you pare for the child? The joiner's plane will smooth the plaiil door. You can rein your horse, if it should rain. The kings reign wisely.
