Question Of Tongue.

Some amount of confusion is caused
by the pronunciation of the name of
the town Kuprulu, or Veles, in Mace
dcnia. The difference in nomencla,
ture is attributable to the conflict Of
tongues. Kuprulu, Koprulu or Ku-
prili, is the Turkish equivalent of the
Bulgarian Valesa and the Greek We
lissa. all of which refer to the same
town in the vilayet las it was under
Turkish rule) of Saloniki. The ancient
Greek historian Polybius speaks of
the town of Bylazors, and it is be-
leved that the Bulgarian and modern
Greek names are corruptions of this.
The Turkish form, with slight modifi-
cation, is the cognomen of a family
Of statesmen who flourished from the
sixteenth to the eighteenth centuries.
