Excerpt from The China Review, or Notes and Queries on the Far East, Vol. 2: Published Every Two Months; November and December, 1875 Empire, and may be regarded as not a spoken language, except the most ancient referred to above. The object of this paper is to plead for the cultivation and use of the vulgar tongues, and the preparation of books in the colloquial or vernacular languages. It is believed that the special want of China at present, in order to the elevation of the country to a proud place among the nations, is the cultivation and use in literature of a simple style, something different from that in use now, the reduction to writing of the common speech, of such as in English. Is called the mother tongue, that which is learned on the mother's breast. What is called the book style is associated with the dismal scenes of the school-room, and the dreadful drudgery of committing to memory page after page, and volume after volume, of sounds without understanding the meaning. The books in the schools are not in the language of common life. The words awaken no sweet memories of home, and there is no music in them to strike the chords of the heart when the sounds are heard by the ear.
