Natural short-hand, wherein the nature of speech and the manner of pronunciation are briefly explained and a natural reason assigned from thence for the particular form of every stroke. Every single articulation whether vowel or consonant is marked by a distinct single line. All the simple characters are as analogous to each other as the sounds they represent; ealso their conveniency for joining is commensurate to the frequency of their use. The number of ascending and descending lines are duly proportioned to each other and the rules for writing and contracting are few plain and familiar. To which is annexed, a short-hand character for expressing musical or inarticulate sounds without the use of ruled lines; by Holdsworth and Aldridge of the Bank of England.
