tions. Maps Of the region arc given in
many Journals, and particular towns are
often mentioned. But confusion in regard
60 these is quite likely to arise from the fact
that the same place is often mentioned under
different name, %, more frequently, under
different orthograply- English, German,
or French, according AS tho map or iniOr
nation has been drawn from one or the
other of these sources Take nm example or
two: Cologne CEnglishD Colon FRENCH
Koln or Coin (German) Mentz, (English,) }
Mnyence (French,, Mainz Germany not
Metz. 81 also with regard to Coblentz,
Frankfort, and many Others.
Then, too, pnrplexity may arise from an
other source. There Is often more than one
town Of the same name, distinguished usual
ly by n suilix or descriptive phrase, but this
suifix is sometimes omitted, Thus in France
arc Chalons sur Marnc (Chalons on the river
Marnc,) Chalons sur Loire, and Others. The
first OF these is nearest the scene of uctivc
operations, and now usually referred to. This

D. There are several places commencing with
Saar spoken ni---Saarbruck, SaarlOuis, &c.
These arc so called from being on the river
Saar. The final syllable Of these and many
other German towns has M genealogical
signiication, u knowledge Of which often
aids to a better understanding of the situu-
tion Of the place or the reason OF It's, origi-
