The New Orleans Picsyune, in q
learned and interesting article, gives
the stymology, derivation, and signif.

are retained, usually In . mutilated
form, In the geography Of Mississippi
and Louisiana Among them appears
the name Of one Of the most import

Bogue Falsya. The Pronunciation Of
these names, IT must be remembered,
10 usually Indian, but they are spelled
according to French usage; and hence
the puzzle to the ordinary writer Of
English. The name "Bogue Falsyg

the mode Of spelling, viz, "Phalis," Is
erroneous. In Louisiana, where the
French spelling prevails, 1t 10 univer-
sally written "Fslaya," and this form
is accepted BY the government maps
aud surveys. It may be argued that
II is q question Of taste, and that Eng.
lish spelling is quite Is permissible ~

the French we're the first TO write the
Indian name, thereby gaming priority,
