PREFACE. 
 
 The present work is but the proper sequel to the Union Spell- 
 er. It comes forth in response to a call, long since made and 
 often repeated, for some exercises in spelling, suitable for the 
 higher classes in Schools and for Teachers' Institutes. 
 
 The standard adopted is the new Illustrated Edition of Web- 
 ster's American Dictionary. No orthographical, or orthoepical 
 principle, rule, analogy, or tendency, therefore, laid down and ap- 
 proved in that great w ork, is here left without ample illustration. 
 
 The number of Avords introduced is about five thousand. 
 These include all those about which people are most apt to 
 differ, or to be at a loss. And wherever, in such cases, the doubt 
 is removable by appeal to established rule, or to reputable usage, 
 the rule, or the usage is either given, or referred to, in a brief 
 explanatory note. 
 
 Where, as often haj^pens, the ear is likely to mislead the eye^ 
 as in spelling dac' tyl^ (iyl), and due' t'de, (ttle), re cede\ (cede)^ and 
 8UC ceed^ (ceed), the v,ords presenting such points of resemblance, 
 are purposely put under each other. This is done in order to 
 inculcate these differences by the force of comparison. 
 
 In more than half of the Exercises the words are all defined. 
 Many, moreover, are further explained in notes; while all are 
 divided into syllables and duly accented. 
 
 Such, in brief, is the Test-Speller ; in the preparation of 
 which the author has kept steadily in view the particular w^ant 
 to be supplied, and thus sought to obviate the very natural olrjec- 
 tion to an ordinary Spelling-book for advanced pupils. 
 
 Entered, according to Act of Congress, in the year 1866, by 
 
 CHARLES TV. 8ANDEUS, 
 
 In tho Clerk's Onice of the District Court of the United States, for the Southern 
 
 District of New York.

TO THE PUPIL. 
 
 In the Key to the Pronunciation, on the next two 
 pages, joii will iind, for 3^0111* guidance, a number of 
 little marks or signs over^ under, or across the several 
 letters to indicate their sounds. It is necessary to be 
 perfectly familiar with these. 
 
 Observ^e, also, in studying your lessons, how each 
 word is divided into syllables, and which syllable bears 
 the mark (') of the accent. This last is very impor- 
 tant ; for (among other reasons) a change of accent 
 often involves an entire change of ineaning. Thus, 
 col led' means io gather together , but coV led means a 
 short jprayer. 
 
 Between the two words conn' sel or and coun' cil or, 
 you notice, there is little, or no difference in souiul. 
 But, in the spelling, there is a difference. In coiin'- 
 selor. you observe, the second syllable is sel : in conn'- 
 cil or, the second syllable is cil. 
 
 Differences of this kind often lead to mistakes in 
 spelling. Hence, when such cases occur in the lessons, 
 as often they will, they must be carefully noted, for 
 this will serve to fix them in your mind. 
 
 Some of the marks, as tlie star (^), the dagger (f), 
 &c., point to notes at the foot of the page. Make it 
 alwa^^s a part of your lesson to know accurately what 
 these notes teach.

 REGULAR DIPHTHONGAL SOUNDS. 
 
 oi, or oy (unmarked), as in. . .oil, join, oyster, toy. 
 ou, or ow (unmarked), as in . . out, hound, owl, vovrel. 
 
 C O N" S O IN" -A. JN'T S ,

 •e, hardy liive A', as in -eall, -eoneur, success. 
 
 cli (unmarked), as in chikl, much, torching. 
 
 gh, soft, like sh, as in ghaise, machine. 
 
 €h, hard^ like /j, as in -ehord, chorus, epo^h. 
 
 g, hard, as in get, begin, foggy. 
 
 g, soft, like/, as in _ gem, gin, elegy. 
 
 s, sJiarp (unmarked), as in.. . .same, yes, rest. 
 g, softy or vocal, Kke 2, as in. . . ha.^, pri§m, amuge. 
 th, sharp) (unmarked), as iii. . .thin, breacli, healthy. 
 
 ih, fiat, or vocal, as in .thine, smooth, Avither. 
 
 ng (unmarked), as in "^'hig, sing, single. 
 
 n, as in liijger, link, uncle. 
 
 X. like ^2, as in e§ist, example, exhaust. 
 
 pli, like/, Qs in phantom, sylph. 
 
 qu, like kw, as in queen, conquest. 
 
 wh, like hw, as in what, when, awhile. 
 
 When one letter of an improper diplitliong, or of a triphthong, is 
 marked, it is to be taken as representing the sound of the whole com- 
 bination, and the letter or letters which ajx not marked, are to be re- 
 garded as silent, as in aim, clean, ceil, people, group, soul, tow, &:c. 1 
 
 In the following work, all letters printed in Italics, are silent, j 
 This, however, is done only where mistakes in i^ronunciation are 
 otherwise likely to be made. 
 
 Words and syllables very irregular in respect to pronunciation, 
 as colonel, {kur' nel), are often rcspelled. So, also, words from for- 
 eign languages, as coup de main, {koo de maiu/), and, in the case of 
 those from the French, the combination ng (as above) is used, in this 
 book, merely to denote the nasal sound in the syllables an, en, on, &c., 
 in that language. 
 
/ 
 
 TO TEAOHEES. 
 
 There are few things in wliicli the art of questioning 
 can be more attractively and etfectively employed than 
 in the conduct of exercises such as the follovvinsr. 
 
 Every inarlc or sign^ accompanying the letters, what- 
 ever its office, to say nothing of tlie various offices of 
 the letters themselves, will furnish opportunities for the 
 use of this method. 
 
 Why, for example, we may ask, in the word ya(?At'- 
 ing, are the letters ch printed in italics? What means 
 the mark (') over the first syllable? Does the mark 
 of the accent affi^ct a particular letter^ or a particular 
 syllaUe f How does accent differ from emphasis f 
 "What is the meaninor of the dot under the a m vac'At'- 
 ing ? Does it denote one of the Regular or one of the 
 Occasional sounds of that letter? How many Regular 
 sounds has each of the vowels? How manv Occasion- 
 al f Has the letter a any sound except those laid down 
 in the Key, as Regular and Occasional? (See San- 
 ders' Union Speller, p. 37.) 
 
 These questions may take any desirable rani^e. 
 Tiiey should bring out, at least, everything, whether 
 in the text or in the notes, that may serve to illus- 
 trate the words under notice.

 number end in able, while a few are found to take either termina.

 eatable, readable, etc. ; those from Latin, end either in able or ible, 
 according as they come from words ending in abilis or ibilis in that 
 language.
