Saving Historic Names.

From the New York Tribune.
Manhattan Island abounds in Local
names, of great age and OF historic sig
nificance. some Of which are already half
forgotten or misunderstood. A current
street as typical thoroughfare of Green
wich village may set some persons to
studying the actual bounds of that his
toric community. Chelsea Is another name
which has become little more than a
name Yorkville and Carmansville are
undeservedly obsolete. In some OF the
other boroughs. indeed. in all Of them.
local names are even more abundant than
in Manhattan, and many of them are
euphonious and historically significant.
Yet they are generally declining in popu-
because Of a desire on the part of the
residents to be directly associated with
New York.
This We must regret. All dwellers with
in the bounds Of the city are entitled to
the name of New York. But they owe
them for the sake Of historical reminis-
cence. An example Is set in London.
Paris and other great cities. From Ken
sington to Stepney, and from kentish
Town to Dulwich, all is London. Yet
innumerable local names within those
bounds are cherished as much as that
of London itself. kensington and May
fair. and ST. Johns Wood and Bermond-
sey, and Rotherhithe and Greenwich and
the rest, all cling to their historic names.
So do Passy and Vaugirard. and Mont
martre and Bellevflle, in Paris. Surely
New York should be no less regardful OF
her ancient nomenclature. which in many
cases is invested with historic suggestion
and not infrequently with the charm of
romance.
