The Names of the States.

Hon. Hamilton B. Staples read paper at
the annual meeting of the American antigua
rian society in Worcester, on the 21st inst, in
several of the States His conclusions were as
follows: New Hampshire gets its name from
Hampshire, England. Massachusetts, is de-
rived from an Indian name, first given to the
bay, signifying ''near the great hills" Rhode
Island has an obscure origin, the Island of
Rhodes, the "Island of the Roads," and
Dutch origin, "Red Island" were mentioned,
the first seeming to have the best historical
support Connecticut is an Indian name, sig
nifying Gland on long tidal river" New
York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware,
and MARYLAND were passed over. Virginia,
the Carolinas, and Georgia have royal origin.
Maine was named from the fact that it was
supposed to contain the 'mayne portion" of
New England. Vermont has no especial ques-
tion, except that it is claimed to have first
been an alias-New Connecticut, alias Ver-
mont. Kentucky popularly signifies either a
''dark and bloody ground" or "a bloody river
or ''the long river" Tennessee comes from
its river, the name being derived from the
name Of an Indian village on the river
'sTanasee." Ohio is named after an Indian
name, signifying something great" with an
accent of admiration. Indiana comes from
the name of an early land company.
Illinois comes from the Indian-the
name of tribe. Michigan is claimed
to mean "lake conntry;' it probably came
from the name of the lake, "Great Lake,
which bore this name before the land adjacent
was named. Louisiana is from the French.
Arkansas and Missouri are Indian, the former
being doubtful; the latter is claimed to mean
in its original muddy waters" which de-
scribes the river. Iowa is also Indian with
doubtful meaning. Texas is popularity sup
posed to be Indian, but may be Spanish Flor

IT is authoritatively announced that the
rectification of the boundary line between
Chilli and the territory of the Argentine Re-
public has been conclusively settled at
last. A long-standing occasion of contro-
versy, which has more than once threat
ened to involve the two countries in hostili-
ties, has thus been removed, to the mutual
advantage of the governments concerned.
When the matter was last referred to, set
tlement of the dispute was prevented by the
fact that the politics of the Argentine Re-
public were in complicated and precarious
condition. There were rival claimants to
the Presidency, and such general uncertain
ty prevailed as to preclude the ratification of
an international treaty. 1t may be inferred
that the government of the Argentine Con-
federation has now been placed upon sta
bic aud constitutional basis.

TORONTO MAIL: President Arthur has
done himself infinite credit, as well by the
formal order as by the graceful words in
which he referred TO the mother land at
Yorktown. There is no reason, at this late
day, why single word of recrimination
should pass between the republic and the
empire. The parent may well be proud of
her son, and the son has no reason to be a.
shamed of the parent. For ourselves, in Can
ada, who still remain under the paternal
roof, with the amplest freedom of action,
and an unbounded range for its healthy ex-
ercise, as we have cordially united with
England in sympathy under the distressing
circumstances of this year, SO we hail with
even more intellig ent appreciation the kind
ly words which come to us from over
he border.

THE Royal family of England have been
brought within the operations of the Irish
boycotting code. The following is copy ot
a circular distributed by the Executive of
the Land League to its branches for the
purpose of obtaining signatures to its dec
laration: "We, the undersigned, declare
that we will not visit the Exhibition of
Irish Manufactures which is proposed to be
held in Dublin in 1882 if any members of the
Royal or Viceregal family, or any agents of
the Government who may at any time have
taken part in the oppression of the Irish
people, be invited to open the said ExSibi-
ton, OF be allowed TO have any connection
with it; and we also declare that we will
not knowingly buy the goods of any manu-
facturers who may exhibit in the said Ex-
hibition if it be held under the conditions to
which we have objected"

Ninety Miles an Hour.
The Wonderful Powers Attributed to the
New Fontaine Locomotive.

For the last ten days the railroad men of Jer-
sew City have been much interested in the Fon-
taine locomotive which has been running from
the Pennsylvania Railroad Company's round
house to different points along the line be-
tween Jersey City and Philadelphia. The lc-
eomotive in question is the second built upon
the plan of having the driving wheels six feet
above the ground, the power being communica-
ted to the rail wheels by friction The queer
appearance of the locomotive has earned for it
the name of ''Camel" and "Crab," the fact
that the upper wheels turn in an opposite di-
recton from which the engine is going adding
to its popularity when in motion. The wheels
in contact with the rails are six feet in diame-
ter on the outside surface of the wheel, present.
ing the appearance Of o large wheel aud
smaller one clamped together. The driving

As Mr.. Peabody's gift to the London poor
has sweled within the past few years from
$500, 900 to e72O,oO0, the trustees of this
great charity may be credited with having
most efficiently and judicieusly administered
the vast interests under their control. Indeed
there is some reason to believe that their
management of the fund has been somewhat
too business-like. The complaint is oft en-
made that the Peabody tenements do not
benefit the class for which they were pri-
marily intended. They are so convenient and
in every way desirable that the accommo-
dation they furnish is always in demand at
higher rent than very poor people can
afford to pay, and so they are occupied by
clerks and mechanics rather than by the
tvpical laborer.
