The first day at Shiloh the Forty-ninth,
about 500 strong, of irstclass though undis-
ciplined material, had never been under fire.
In this green condition they were pushed for
ward on the extreme left and in front OF our
attacking columns, when they ran into a
regiment or brigade Of Yankees in ambush
When the blue cloud rose up from the gull
lies, where they bad been quietly awaiting
''the coming men" and poured deadly fire
into their ranks the Alabamians didn't wait
for second invitation to leave. They went
back, pell-mell-the devil take the hindmost

were reformed, and, after q rest, tried II
again. IT is due those brave men TO add that
no soldiers fought better the second day, and
thereafter while the war lasted.
But this little eseapade, for some time aft
er subjected the Forty-ninto TO many n gibe
and Jest from members Of the other regi-
ments. One day several weeks afterward,
while the Forty ninth was marching along
on the retreat from Corinth, some Tennessee
ans came up and began TO joke the Alsbam-
ians for not having stuck together'' the first
day at Shiloh. To no member of the regim-
emit had such jeers been so humiliating, or
more exasperating, than TO Dyer, who had
all along protested that he had behaved, on
the occasion referred to, as a soldier should,
and had not even followed his flying friends
OF the field while single officer or private
remained behind with him. When be

What California means no one has been
able 10 definitely settle, but il is generally &C
eepted that the name was first used IN a Span
ish novelette, entitled 'Las Lergas de Esplan-
dian" published in 1910, and was there APP
piled to an island ''on the right hand OF the
Indies, near the Terrestrial Paradise" Calls
toga has been tortured by some local philo-
logists into meaning cap aud gown, but Ban
croft asserts that Sam Brannan "made mp"
the name by taking the two front syIlables Of
California and the two last OF Saratoga, join
ing them together and adding a central So
for the sake OF euphOny. Calaveras is said
by some to mean the ''true skuH'' and by
John 5. Hitten. who mas devoted much atten-
ton to the Typographical names of California,
10 mean simply skulls. Since calavera is
the Spanish for skull, Mr.. Hittell has the bal
ance Of reason on bis side, supposition
siren gthened by the legend still exiaBt- that
the Spaniards discovered an old Indian battle

more devOut reason and that some pious frar
named the place in sacred memory OF Cal
vary, The origin OF the name Lodi is quite
obscure, although il is very near to Lodo, the
Spanish for mud lone was probably named
SO by some poetical admirer Of tue Nereid,
though it would puzzle one to find out where
in the world he drew his inspiration.
Boca is the Spanish for mouth, but why
the little mountain town should so be called
is not clear, notwithstanding the ingenious
explanation Of some German that It has
been called Boca because the mouth is the
/ place to brew. Unfortunately for this theory
Boca was called Boca long before tue brewery
] was established there. The chances are that
some typographical peculiarly is responsible
for the name, boca also meaning a hole or
an entrance. MORO and BOHnaf, the one
meaning pebble, and the other lowliness,
] are both puzzles, unless one is content to
accept them as being named after people.
Point Ammo Nuevo was, very probably,
named SO because it was discovered on the
irst of new year, and Sonora, It is general
| " accepted, was so called because the first
residents Of the place were miners who came
from Sonora, Mex. The wild and reckless
cause there grew in its neighbOrhood emil
pitas," thousand aloes. But Visalla bothers
all attempts at explanation. Paraiso means
paradise and was often bestowed by the
Spaniards upon any place they thought
''heavenly." The correctness with which
the old Spanish names have generally been
retained is remarkable. The worst modern
fault has been that OF chopping of the arti
cles, while Los Gatos and the Farallones are
about the worst examples Of misspelling.
The first should be Las Gatss, meaning the
cats, and the second should be FarrellOnos,
moaning cliffs in the sea- San Francisco

The returns Of the corn crop to the de-
partment Of agriculture show that the aver
age yield per acre is trife over twenty-six
bushels. II is a curious comment on the
theory which was much discussed few years
since in the southern press, that was the
south needed more than anything else was
70 raise its own corn, that no southern site
reports an average yield. That Of Maryland
TWENTY-FIVE bushels, is the highest, and the
rate descends to eleven in Georgia and ''less
in other states" The highest yield reported
is that OF Nebraska, 3s.5, while New York
yields 80, Pennsylvania 81, aud the New
England states nearly 80. The most fertile
corn lands are in what few years ago was
known as the great American desert"

A Relic Of the Yikings.
rcpriprneld Republiean1

Major C. w. Raymond, of the United
States engineers, has taken to his Office in
Boston large brazen bell which from time
immemorial has lain on Castle Island in Bos-
ton Harbor. The Danish eonsuel has de-
ciphered the inscription upon it and says that
it is written in the ancient Danish and that
the bell probably belonged to ship named
the Patriot. Antiquarisns think that this
discovery confirms the theory that the old
Vikings actually reached Boston harbor in
their voyagings. II is understood that the
bell viii be placed among the relics In the
Old South meetiug-house.
