of the state. Tapping Reeve, came from

Variety of Meanings.
There is much variety of urcutrtrrgs
of the names which have been bo-
stowed on the l‘or'tysix states and four
territories which make up the world-
cnuntr‘y known almost universally
abroad as The States. and which has
so overshadowed all other united
states. such as those-in South America.

“Here We Rest."
Tho meanings of some ol‘ the names
are expressive and significant. Ala-
bama, which leads all the others
when they are taken in alphabetical
order. is generally held to menu “lrct‘c
we rest.” it was the name of 1111
Indian tribe. and our: authority gives
the sigrriiicrrucc “burnt clearing." and
another "thicket clcar‘ct‘s.”
‘Arkuusns is not count-cred with
Kansas, as popularly supposed. and.
in fact. by many a different pronurr
ciation is given to it. the last. syllable
being sounded as it “saw." instead of
“Bus." Marquette and other French
explorers wrote the. work Alknnsns anti
Arkamca. One meaning given to it
is a "bow of smoky water." and au-
otlrer. “people. of. the smoky water."
Another derivative is from the. French
.‘arc-eu-sang" or “bioodybow.”
in an old Spanish romance the
name California was applied to an
island where many precious stones
were found. The name was given by
Cortcz. when he discovered tirer‘rr, to
the bay and what be. supposed to be
an island, and was extended by the
