of the name of tho saint. Louis is not
an English name, aud Hume, in angli-
ciziug it in his history, always writes it
"Lewis." All the French kings of the
name "Louis" are "Lewis" in Hume's
writings. Those who say "St. Looie"
in speaking of the city may think it is
more honor to TIE sainted King OF
France, for whom 1t was named, to use
the French pronunciation. On the Other
hand, our language is English, and it is
perfectly natural that there should be
those who hold that the name of our
cities should be as nearly English as
possible. The "St. LooIe" pronuucia.

generally accepted. Doubtless the ear
