An essay towards establishing a standard for an elegant and uniform pronunciation of the English language : throughout the British dominions, as practised by the most learned and polite speakers. A work entirely new; and whereby every one can be his own private teacher. Designed for the use of schools, and of foreigners as well as natives; especially such whose professions engage them to speak in public. By James Buchanan, author of the British grammar, &c.
