INDIAN WORDS.

An exchange gives the following about
Indian words: 1.-The origin OF many III
dian words which have furnished names
for our towns. rivers, streams, lakes,
etc, Is more frequently derived from the
French and spanish than from an Indian
paternity. According to Gov. Gilpin,
the namcsyOf Western Indian tribes bear
title derived from the French The
Osages, who AT an early day had their
villages ia Missouri, be says, have their
tribal designation from the early French
explorers who call them the sage, or WISE
Indians. The name Of the tribe also fur
nished an appellation for the Osagc river.
Everybody knows that the Cheyennes
were so named from chen, dog. and, dur
ing the war on the Smoky Hill route
the sO-callcd "dog-,oliicrs" of the Chcy-
enne tribe were fierce and formidable in
their dcprodations, ana the terror OF the
plains.
The Crow tribe were called tue ColJeau
the French word for Crows.
also OF French origin. There was a Ger
tain place in the mountains where the In
dian tribes procured their wood for the
manufacture of bows, made from tough
tree called are. and when the French
trader, inquired of the Indians where
some Of their chief men had gone they un-
derstood what was meant when told they
had gone "auy arcs" ito the arcs) hence
Ozark. Arkansas had a derivation from
the combination of the Bots de Arc and
Kansas, the name of well-hnown
tribe of Indians. \ little
stream in the Illinois coal
region which cmpties into the Big Muddy
river, was called by the French Beauc0up,
that is much or full, as the stream az
pearcd TO the explorers, when compared
with smaller streams. The name - now
corrupted into B,scco. \ creek at De
soto. Mo-, is called the Waukin, though
originally named the Joachim, after
common French Christian name. But
the most ridiculous perversion OF n
French word is that OF the Ppqqtotrs
river in Colorado, called by the plains
men the Piekst WUe. The river never
goes under the Spanish designated Rio
Los Anlmos, meaning in English the
River Of Souls.
The origin and corruption Of names in
our early history is yet a source OF in
teresting investigation.

GOV. TILDE>'s POSITION NE WILL
ASSERT HIS RIGHTS.

GOV. 1'ilden has been talking lately,
and his words are decidedly pluchy.
They mean trouble to the Republicans if
he is counted out. They are ominous.
But, then, Hayes Is also talking in the
same way. He has been doing his talk
ing to public crowds, and has been as
serting his determination to take the Of
flee there are many reasons tor believing
he was never elected to. ~ was cleo
ted, says Hayes, land will take the Oh
fee" 81 was elected" says 1ilden,
land must not be robbed Of the place the
people have called me to occupy On the
subject of Tilden's position, the Wash
ington correspondent OF the Louisville
CoHrtey-Jotu7tat says "There is no back
down or ialtering In Mr.. Tilden. He has
repeatedly declared, in conversation with
his friends, that, after having accepted
The nomination OF president, and being
elected, IL would be cowardly in him TO
shrink from the duties imposed on him
because Of the conspiracy OF certain poll
ticians. In his interview some days ago
with prominent congressman, he was
equally emphatic in urging firmness Oh
the part Of Democrats, in and out of con-
gress, in maintaining their rights. 1t may
be stated here that Mr.. Tilden favors
far more active course in developing pub
lie opinion than has been advised by
some prominent gentlemen who have
been ctroneously supposed to represent
him in this crfsis.''
