INDIAN NAMEs.--m the published pro-
ceedings Of the Wisconsin Historical Society,
the Indian names for several of the towns,
rivers, DC, in that State are given, and the
question is asked, what is the English mean
ing of the words! l send you few, with
a translation as given meby LOUIS M. MORAN
one OF the interpreters of the Chippewas :
Mil-wau-kee-pronounced by the Indians
Me-ne-aw-kee; the rich or beautiful land.
She-boy- gan; a hollow bone.
Wau-ke-sha-pronounced by the Chppe-
was Wau-goosh-sha; the little fox.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS and should be
spelled Pe-waw-naw-kee; the finty place.
Wau-pe-te-seepe-the indian word is We
be-te-see-pee; Tooth River.
Oshkosh; hoof
Manitou-walk; The home, or the place Of
the spirits.
There are many parts of long Indian
names which are almost inaudible when spok-
en- by an Indian, and yet they are necessary
to make any sense of the word. White
men generally, in writing such names, leave
part out, and the consequence is that inter-
prefers can make nothing of them.

Mrs. GAINS CAsE.-As considerable mis-
apprehension exists as to the effect of the re-
cent decision in the case of Mrs. Gaines, we
publish the following extract from a legal
correspondents letter in the Philadelphia
Ledger, which explains the point exactly -
"You appear to me to labor under a mis-
take in regard to the late decision in the
Gaines case. The court below decreed that
no will can be proved without producing the
paper purporting to be the instrument. The
Superior Court reversed that decision, and
declared that will that is proved to have
had an existence, and to have been lost or
destroyed, may be proved Now, before
such probate can be received it must be
made to appear to the court below that the
will of Daniel Clark had existence, and was
lost or destroyed. The Superior Court there
fore, gave no authority to Mrs. Gaines to sue
out an ejectment, as you suppose

A SINGULAR PHENoMENoN.-We were
shown yesterday, says the Alexandria Gazette
by gentleman living near Fairfax, N. H., a
species of bug that fell at that place duriug
the rain of Saturday night last. The snow
for several miles was robbed of its whiteness
and made to resemble vast field of colored
velvet. What is still more surprising, the in
tense GOODNESS of the weather cannot kill
them. They apparently seem to be stiffen-
ed by the raw atmosphere; but, if placed
near the fire, will relax and exhibit signs of
life. They are very black, and but little lar
ger than grain of course powder. Who
can enlighten us on the "bug question:"

ACCIDENT TO GEN. CAss.-Gen. Caas fell
down the steps outside the Patent Office this
morning, breaking one of his arms, he was
taken to the National Hotel, where it was as
certained that he had deep cut in his tenn
pie, from which the blood flowed profusely
and it was feared the skull was fractured as
he was entirely insensible.
LATER.--Cass has revived little, and he
recognizes his friends. His arm is not brok-
en-. Physicians think Gen. Cass's injuries
are not serious, though his frame was much
Jared by the fall.

COLLISION BETWEEN AMERICAN VIAL
ERs AND JAPANEsE.-The Friend of China
of Nov. 18th, has the following:
We learn by the Tartar, that the day after
the japanese convention British was rati-
fled at Nagaaiki, admiral Sterling was ask
ed by the commissioner to give his advice
on the best course to be pursued towards the
Americans, who it was said, with nine ves-
sells at Simoda were breaking the peace in the
most outrageous manner. The admiral is
said to have recommended concession to the
American demands, provided they were in
any way reasonable.
An American gentleman writes on thes
ject:
i understand that twelve sail of Ameri-
can whalers visited Simoda in anticipation of
receiving supplies agreeable to the late treaty
Report is, they were treated very unkindly
and determination was made by the
japanese from some cause, not to furnish
them with supplies.
The Americans were not to be trihed with {;
they took what they wanted, and paid in dol
lars at their fair weight, one-third the value,
as fixed on by the treaty. 1t is said that
guns had been fred and japanese killed.

preston again took place, and on Tuesday

coolest weather, at this point, of the season.
The ice in the river is of unprecedented thick
ness, the sleighing excellent, greatly facili-
tating the business of the lnmbermen in our

tinuance of sleighing favors the impression
that an unusual amount of lumber will be
manufactured in the Grand River Valley du-
ring the coming season.

The Detroit Free Press, and other papers
in various localities, caution the public against
taking or handling Macomb county money.
The bank is reported as q wildcat concern
having no men of responsibility to back it
and consequently is unreliable and unworthy
of public confidence. We are exceedingly
anxious that good money should circulate in
our county, and the experience of the past,
is doubtless a sufficient warning to the citi-
zens that it is dangerous to handle trash pur-
porting to be money. ga word to the
