The Meaning Of America.

The meaning Of the name Amerigo has
often been discussed, the only thing GER
tain being that it is one of those names of
Teutonic origin, like Humberto, Alfonzo,
Grimaldi. or Garibaldi, so common in
northern Italy. which testify to the Gothic
or Lombard conquest. Americ, which
occurs as early as 744 A. D., is probably
a contracted form Of the name Amalaric,
borne by a king Of the Visigoths, who
died in 81. A Bishop Enrich was
present at the council Of Salisbury in s07,
and an Americas Balistariusi is mentioned
the Close Rolls Thirteenth century,.
1t has been ~conjectured that the stem
is i'm, from which we get the name Of
Emma. The meaning Of this is not
known with certainty, though Ferguson
thinks il may denote '~'strife'' or ''noise."
Since. however, the name is probably Of
Gothic origin, and since the Amalungs
were the royal race Of the Ostragoths, it
is more likely that the stem is anal,
which was formerly thought to mean
''without spot" but is now more plaus-
IDLY connected with the old Morse ami,
''labor," work" The suffice ric. cog
nate with rex, reich and rick, means
''rich" or powerful and therefore the
most probable Specification Of Amerigo is
''strong for labor. Isaac Taylor in

Lotteries and Dreams.

IN lotteries and kindred forms OF
Rmbling, men reject trust in other folks
buck, and believe instead in condolences
and dreams. They find the number on
which they finally stake their fate in all
manner of absurd end unmeaning ways.
All the tens OF thousands of ticket hold
srs in a great lottery have selected their
number in ONE way satisfactory to
themselves, about which we hear nothing
xrWhen the result is q fail".aa, as IN ninatg
zine cases out of hundred it necessarily is.
But When the result chances to be a sue
cess, as in a small proportion of cases il
must be, the whole story is gravely re-
lated in the papers as though the number
actually bringing the prize had been de-
stermined beforehand by some scientific
process of reasoning, and success assured
by the exercise of good Judgment and
ingenuity.
Yet it is idle to inveigh against the
folly of such fancies and superstitions.
They have existed in all ages and among
all races from time immemorial. Carry

ton, they also carry in themselves what
10 believers in luck appears their full
confirmation. For he does not observe
that the ideas about luck which run
through his mind are contradictory, and
in their self contradiction provide for
every event. When success comes to him
by following one idea about luck his
faith in luck is confirmed; but when
failure arrives he is not a whit less salts
fed that he holds the true faith about
luck, for he has another doctrine about
that event also. Richard A. Proctor.
