And trust me, gentle folk, his are the whimwhams of a courteous gentleman, full of most excellent qualities ; honorable in his disposition, independent in his sentiments, and of unbounded good nature, as may be seen through all his works.
ON STYLE.
BY WILLIAM WIZARD, ESQ.
Style, a manner of writing; title; pin of a dial; the pistil of plants. — Johnson.
Style, is style. — LinJcum Fiddius.
NOW I would not give a straw for either of the above definitions, though I think the latter is by far the m...ost satisfactory ; and I do 174 SALMAGUNDI.
wish sincerely every modern numskull, wiio takes hold, of a subject he knows nothing about, would adopt honest Linkum's mode of explanation.
Blair's Lectures on this article have not thrown a whit more light on tiie subject of my inquiries ; ihey puzzled me just as much as did the learned and laborious expositions and illustrations of the worthy professor of our college, in the middle of which I generally had the ill luck to fall asleep.
This same word Style, though but a diminutive word, assumes to itself more contradictions, and significations, and eccentricities, than any mono- syllable in the language is legitimately entitled to.
