Teachers, Institute nj Gorhum,


After the close of the usual morning exer-
cises Prof. Cruttenden gave the concluding
lesson on language, extending and celebrating
his previous instructions. He urged the i'm
portance OF the study from the consideration
shat the English is destined to supercede all
other languages, and to become the universal
medium OF communication. Some of Prof c.
Ideas ON grammar were evidently new to the
teachers, and brought out quite lively dis
cussion. Mr.. Choate, one of the teachers, fol-
lowed with an address on the same subject of
Grammar. He confined himself mainly to the
use and definition of the different parts of
speech. presenting his rather dry subject in a
manner so interesting as to hold the attention
of those who heard him to the end n4
DR.. True followed with definitions of Indian
Geographical names. The Indian languages
on the Western continent are synthetical or
'bunch-bundle" languages, combining many
words in one. The English have mls-spelled
many of the Indian words, and done the Ian
guage great injustice. He gave lists of Indian
words, and then illustrated the manner of COM
n'ning them in names. Sebago means "river
place. Massa chusetts, "much mountain
place. Winnepeseagee, beautiful water
place." Skowhegan, "spearing place" ETC.
de had never been able TO discover the mean
ing OF Saccarappa, although it is thought by
soms to mean docking to the east" the river
there taking bend to the east; The aborigi-
nal name of Portland meant mud place. -
This address closed the morning session.
