PREFACE. 
 
 npHE progress and development of the United States during the last decade in 
 every part of their economy, have been far beyond all possible anticipation. 
 The greater number of the old States have acquired, through the increase of their 
 population and of every element of prosperity, an entirely new aspect and character, 
 but it is, perhaps, chiefly in the Western States and Territories that progress has 
 been marked in the most striking manner. This vast portion of our country, 
 covering an area of over two millions of square miles, and which, not very long ago, 
 was a wild and almost an unexplored region, has now a population of nearly twenty 
 millions, and produces all our surplus meat and grain, besides one-third of our 
 manufactured products. New settlements have been multiplied and extended with 
 unexampled rapidity, and numerous places, some few years ago humble villages, 
 are now the marts of an extensive trade. As a natural consequence of this marvelous 
 growth, the preparation of the NATIONAL GAZETTEER, with the ambition of 
 making it a standard work, rendered it necessary to go over the whole ground with 
 most careful and thorough investigation, neglecting no source or means of obtaining 
 the newest and most authentic information. 
 
 In the endeavor fully to accomplish all this, the editor and publishers have 
 shrunk from no expense nor hesitated at any amount of work. The previous labors 
 of the editor peculiarly fitted him for the gigantic task of giving in a concise form 
 and with entire accuracy, a lull description of the geographical condition of the 
 United States, their physical peculiarities and commercial character ; full details of 
 above 75,000 places, including every State and Territory, County, Township, City, 
 Village, Hamlet and Post Office ; of which latter alone, there were 46,893 in 1882. 
 
 All these places have received a thorough and exhaustive description, drawn 
 from the most reliable and newest sources ; their position, means of inter-communi- 
 cation, railroads, rivers, canals; their agricultural, commercial and manufacturing 
 status, history and population, all being accurately given, well defined and lucidly 
 explained for ready comprehension. To accomplish this lias required on the part of

 PREFACE. 
 
 the editor and a large staff of experienced and fully qualified assistants, the arduous 
 and unremitting labor of several years. Every document has been scrutinized, 
 every item of information submitted to the most searching examination, and the 
 result will be found, the editor hopes with full confidence, to be a work hitherto 
 unrivaled in extent of valuable information and general accuracy, making it the 
 standard authority on the subjects of its pages. 
 
 The sources whence this information has been laboriously drawn are mainly the 
 National Census of 1880, of which the NATIONAL GAZETTEER may be said to 
 be the sequence and full illustration; the Official Postal Guide of 1882; the last lie- 
 ports of the Secretary of the Treasury, Secretary of the Interior, Commissioner of 
 Agriculture, Commissioner of Education,Commissioner of Indian Affairs, et cetera; the 
 Reports of the Chief of the Bureau of Statistics on the Commerce and Navigation of 
 the United States for the fiscal year, 1882 ; the Report of the Postmaster General of 
 the United States ; the Reports of the Director of the Mint, of the Commissioner of 
 Internal Revenue, of the Comptroller of the Currency; the Reports of the Chambers 
 of Commerce and Boards of Trade of all the commercial and manufacturing cities, 
 the general and local gazetteers of former dates ; journals of the most intelligent 
 tourists ; guide books, railway guides, maps and other works, geographical, 
 geological and statistical, from which appropriate information could be derived. 
 Fresh and very valuable information has also been obtained by way of a voluminous 
 correspondence with postmasters, editors of local papers, and others, to all of whom 
 the editor of the NATIONAL GAZETTEER respectfully acknowledges himself 
 largely indebted. 
 
 It would, perhaps, sound pretentious on the editor's part were he to claim 
 absolute immunity from errors, which will occur in the most carefully prepared 
 work ; but he can truly declare that he has employed his best energies under some 
 peculiar advantages, to the accomplishment of his plans. In all the toil of this 
 arduous and protracted undertaking, he has been much sustained and animated by 
 the hope of rendering a valuable service to the community, and of contributing, in 
 no small degree, to illustrate the prosperity and glory of a people whose advance in 
 all the elements of a free civilization has become the admiration of the World.

A GENERAL VIEW 
 
 OF THE 
 
 UNITED STATES. 
 
 THE following work professes to exhibit in detail the several parts, even to the most minute, of the 
 American Union, in a view at once geographical, civil, and commercial. Bat before entering into the 
 description of the multifarious limbs of this vast body, it is necessary briefly to dwell on its topography, 
 institutions, productions, and manufactures. 
 
 The United States of America occupy the central part of North America. On the N., from the 
 Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean, it is bounded by the Dominion of Canada, the Hue of separation at the ex- 
 treme N. W. being so drawn as to exclude Vancouver's Island, but to include the islands of the San Juan 
 group. On the S. is the Gulf of Mexico, as far as to the mouth of the Rio Bravo del Norte, which consti- 
 tutes the limit between the republic of Mexico and the United States in that quarter, as far as to the 32d 
 degree of N. latitude, whence it takes a western course until it strikes a branch of the river Gila, which it 
 follows to its entrance into the Rio Colorado, at the head of the Gulf of California. Thence it crosses 
 over Southern California to the Pacific Ocean, at a point ten miles S. of San Diego. The E. and W. 
 boundaries are the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. The territory embraced within these limits embodies an 
 area of 3,025,600 sq. m. In addition to this, the U. States possess the territory of Alaska, with au area of 
 577,390 sq. m. This brings the total area up to 3,602,930 sq. m. Alaska being detached, we shall omit it 
 here, and confine our remarks within the limits above mentioned. 
 
 The greatest length of this region, from Cape Cod on the Atlantic to the Pacific near the 42d parallel, 
 is 2,650 m., and the greatest breadth, from the N. YV. extremity of Minnesota to the southernmost point 
 of Texas, 1,600 m. Its geographical position is eminently fitted for the growth and rapid development of 
 a great and powerful people. Such an extent in latitude must stretch, of course, through very different 
 climates ; so that nearly every variety of temperature, and of animal, vegetable, and mineral productions, 
 will be included. And these have actually been found, not, indeed, in all respects, but for by far the 
 greater number, similar to those of Europe and Asia. 
 
 With the exception of a small portion of the N. E. coast, the shores of the Atlantic and Gulf are low 
 while those of the Pacific are mostly bold and rocky. The eastern coast is filled with numerous bays and 
 roadsteads, which present every facility for commercial intercourse with Europe ; while the western shores 
 open their harbors and inlets to the rich traffic of Asia and Oceanica. The length of coast-line, not includ- 
 ing indentations of the land, according to the U. States coast survey, is 5,715 m., viz.: 2,349 m. on the 
 A'.laniic, 1,566 on the Gulf of Mexico, and 1,810 on the Pacific. The principal branch of the sea extend- 
 ing into the land are the Chesapeake, Delaware and Massachusetts bays, and Albemarle and Paml : co 
 sounds on the Atlantic coast, and the Bay of San Francisco and the Strait of Fuca on the Pacific coast. The 
 principal bodies of land projecting into the sea are the peninsulas of Florida on the S. E. and Cape Cod 
 on the N. E., both extending into the Atlantic Ocean. Numerous islands are scattered along the various 
 coasts of the U. States, nearly all of which give evidence, both by their geological structure and their 
 position, that they were once a part of the main laud, and have been separated from it by a convulsion of 
 nature or by the action of the waters of rivers and of the ocean. The islands of the Atlantic coast, N. of 
 Cape Cod, are mostly high and rocky, being of granite formation. Those S. of Cape Cod on the same 
 coast are generally low and sand) - . Long Island, E. of New York, is the largest, and contains an area of 
 1,6S2 sq. m. On the Pacific coast the principal islands are the Santa Barbara Islands, which are barren and 
 rocky, but contain several good harbors. 
 
 The skeleton of the U. States is represented by two great systems of mountain ranges, the Rocky 
 Mountains in the W. and the Appalachian or Alleghany chain in the E., between wh n is the extensive 
 and fertile Mississippi valley. The Rocky mountain system is a part of the great A erican chain w-hich 
 extends from the Arctic Ocean to the most S. point of South America. Its two main chains in the U. 
 States are the Rocky mountains proper, extending through New Mexico, Colorado, Wyoming, and Mon-

 taia, and the Sierra Nevada in California, with its extension, the Cascade range in Oregon and Washing- 
 ton Territory. Between these two chains is a plateau, crossed by numerous mountain ranges, which 
 through its center E. and W. is from 4,000 to 5,000 ft. high, falling off toward the N. and S. from that line. 
 The Wahsatch mountains are the most important range of the plateau. They extend S. and S. W. through 
 Utah and S. E. Nevada, and form the E. rim of the Great Basin, the W. rim being the Sierra Nevada. 
 They rise from 4,000 to 6,000 ft. above the plateau, Mt. Nebo being 11,992 ft. high. The Blue mountains 
 in E. Oregon are little known. The most elevated portion of the plateau is between the Wahsat^b. and 
 Rocky mountains, and embraces the Colorado " parks" and the Laramie plains in Wyoming. The aver- 
 age elevation here is from 7,000 to 9,000 ft., being greatest on the N. edae of the South park, whence there 
 is a gentle decline in either direction. The loftiest portions of the Rocky mountains is in Colorado, where 
 there are many peaks upward of 14,000 ft. high. The Wind River mountains in N. W. Wyoming, and the 
 Bitter Root mountains, forming part of the boundary between Idaho and Montana, are important spurs of 
 this chain. In the Wind River mountains rise the Missouri river, the Green river, forming the main branch 
 of the Colorado of the West, and the Snake, one of the main branches of the Columbia. The Black Hills, 
 on the border of Wyoming and Dakota, may be considered an outlying group of the Rocky mountains. 
 The Sierra Nevada and Cascade mountains run nearly parallel with the Pacific coast, from 100 to 153 m. 
 from it. In the former are several peaks more than 14,003 ft. high, Mt. Whitney (14,887 ft.) being the 
 highest in the U. States. The Coast range is the westernmost of the Rocky mountain system, running 
 through California, Oregon, and Washington territory, at a distance of from 10 to 53 m. from the coast. 
 It averages from 2,000 to 3,000 ft. in height, but a few peaks rise more than twice as high. The Rocky 
 mountain system embraces an area of nearly 1,000,030 sq. m. It is widest between the 33th and 41st par- 
 allels, where the breadth is from 800 to 1,000 m. It is lowest along the 33d parallel, where the greatest 
 elevation is not more than 4,030 ft. The Appalachian chain extends S. W. from Canada to Alabama. It 
 includes among other ranges the Green mountains in Vermont, the Catskills in New York, the Blue Ridge 
 in Virginia, the Black mountains in North Carolina, and, as outlying spurs, the White mountains in New 
 Hampshire and the Adirondacks in New York. The loftiest peak of the chain is the Black Dome in the 
 Black mountains, 6,707 ft. The Atlantic slope, between the Appalachians and the ocean, is in general 
 hilly, with level tracts near the shore, particularly in the south. 
 
 The rivers of the U. States may be comprised in four distinct classes. The first consists of innumer- 
 able streams, many of them very short, emptying into the great lakes from Superior to Ontario, with which 
 may here, for convenience, be associated the streams emptying into the river St. Lawrence and those run- 
 ning N. into British America. Of the last by far the most important is the Red River of the North, which 
 empties into Lake Winnipeg in Canada. The whole river system thus composed embraces 131,339 oq. m. 
 of the territory of the U. States, lying between the 71st and 104th degrees of Ion. W. The second class 
 comprises all those streams which How eastward or southward to the Atlantic. This division cover ; the 
 total eastern side of the U. States, extending from 47° 15' to 25° 15' in latitude, and covers an estimated 
 area of 301,538 sq. m. The most important rivers of this division, which embraces more than one-third 
 the population of the U. States, are the Penobscot, Kennebec, Androscoggin, Merrimack, Connecticut, 
 Hudson, Delaware, Susquehanna, Potomac, Rappahannock, James, Roanoke, Neuse, Cape Fear, Pedee, 
 Santce, Edisto, Savannah, Ogeechee, Altamaha, Saltilla, and St. Johns. Tlr; third grand class embraces 
 the Mississippi system, and also the rivers of Western Georgia, Western Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, 
 Louisiana, and Texas, which emp'y into the Gulf of Mexico. The total area of this division is computed 
 at 1,633,333 sq. m., of which 1,257,515 are drained by the Mississippi and its tributaries, the principal of 
 which are the Missouri, the Ohio, the Arkansas, and the Red. Of the rivers in this d iss emptying directly 
 into the Gulf, the most important are the Suwauee, Apalachicola, Mobile, Pearl, Sabine, Trinity, Brazos, 
 Colorado (of Texas), Guadalupe, and Nueces, the Rio Grands del Norte forming for a considerable part of 
 its course the southwestern boundary of the U. States. The fourth grand class embraces the Great Inte- 
 rior Basin, without outlet to the sea, between the Rocky mountains and the Sierra Nevada (213,371 sq. m.), 
 and the basins of the Columbia, the Klamath, the Sacramento and San Joaquin, and the Colorado, as well 
 as the tracts drained by smaller streams flowing into the Pacific. The total area is 851,314 sq. m. Few 
 countries in the world contain so many lakes as the U. States, though these are principally confined to the 
 northern portion. Of the five great lakes, as they are called, the largest bodies of fresh water on the 
 globe, with perhaps the exception of the newly discovered and imperfectly known lakes in the interior of 
 Africa, four, viz., Superior, Huron, Erie, and Ontario, lie on the northern border, partly in the U. States 
 and partly in British America, while Lake Michigan is wholly within the territory of the republic. The 
 value of these lakes to the commerce of the U. States can scarcely be over-estimated, as they form, in con- 
 nection with the St. Lawrence river, a natural outlet for one of the richest grain producing countries in 
 the world. A vessel of six hundred tons burden can be loaded with grain at Chicago and taken to Liver- 
 pool, getting around Niagara Falls by the use of the Welland Canal. 
 
 Except in the extreme South and on the Pacific coast, the climate of the U. States is characterized by

 fickleness and by great difference in temperature between Summer and Winter. Transitions from heat 
 to cold and from cold to heat, to the extent of 30° in a few hours, are common at all seasons, and the 
 alternations from rain to drought are nearly as remarkable. The Summer is marked by intense heat, the 
 thermometer rising sometimes several decrees above 100° F. In the North this extreme is seldom con- 
 tinued for more than a few days at a time, and in the Southern States the heat, though long continued, is 
 seldom so great. In Winter the thermometer often falls below zero in the North, and it has been known, 
 particularly 'in Minnesota aud Dakota, to reach the freezing point of mercury ( — 10°). The Atlantic- 
 States have in general a temperature about 10° more severe than countries of the same latitude in west- 
 ern Europe, while California has a climate as mild as that of Italy. The Northeastern States are subject 
 to chill winds from the Atlantic (and at points along the coast to fogs), especially in the Spring months ; 
 and the ice fields of British North America are the cradle of cold blasts which, having no mountain bar- 
 rier to overcome, sweep over the Northern States upon every considerable rise in the temperature further 
 South. The great lakes mitigate to some extent the temperature of the country surrounding them, and 
 other local features, such as the elevated plains and lofty ranges of the Rocky mountain system, affect 
 the climate of particular parts of the country. The average annual temperature varies from 76° in S. 
 Florida to 3o° in N.E. Minnesota. The isothermal lines are irregular, but between the Pacific and the 
 upper Mississippi they have a general tendency toward the North. On the Pacific coast the annual tem- 
 perature of 52° in lat. 48° corresponds to a like temperature on the Atlantic coast in lat. 41°. Rain is 
 abundant over the greater part of the republic, and pretty equally distributed throughout the year. In 
 the North Atlantic States the fall is more regular than in the coast States S. of Washington, being in the 
 latter more plentiful than in the former, and more frequent in Summer than in Winter. On the Pacific 
 coast the rains are periodical, occurring chiefly in Winter and Spring, and S. of lat. 40° in Autumn also. 
 In the Northern States snow frequently falls to a considerable depth, and in the most northerly portions it 
 does uot melt until Spring. It is comparatively rare S. of the Potomac and on the Pacific coast, and 
 when it does occur in these districts it lasts but a short time. The storms of the U. States seem to take 
 their rise in the vast plain which lies immediately to the E. of the Rocky Mountains, and then generally 
 advance in an E.N. easterly direction across the country. The direction has been observed to vary from 
 about due east to north 54° E. When a great storm springs up near the Mississippi, the wind at St. 
 Louis is generally easterly, while throughout New York and Ohio the wind is from the West. Subse- 
 quently this easterly wind is felt at Cincinnati, then at Pittsburg, and afterward at New York, while the 
 entire storm is traveling steadily eastward — that is, the easterly wind is propagated from St. Louis to New 
 York in a direction opposite to that in which the wind in the district over which it passes is blowing be- 
 fore its arrival. The rate at which a storm thus travels varies from zero to 44 m. per hour. It generally 
 makes the distance from St. Louis to New York in about 24 hours, and from New York to Newfoundland 
 in another 24 hours. When a storm in North America is stationary, or nearly so, its form — that is the 
 area occupied by it — is nearly circular ; but when it travels rapidly, it takes an oval form, with the longest 
 axis at right angles to its onward course. The Winter storms of the U. States are therefore said to move 
 sideways. As rain and snow are produced under circumstances exactly alike, with the exception of tem- 
 perature, the same storm frequently furnishes snow in the northern part of the U. States and rain in the 
 southern part. After the center of the storm has passed, a west wind springs up at St. Louis, and is felt 
 successively at Cincinnati, Pittsburg, and finally at New York, having beeu propagated in the same direc- 
 tion as that in which the wind was blowing in the district passed over by the storm before the latter ar- 
 rived. 
 
 The varied physical aspects of the country indicate a corresponding varied vegetation. E. of the 
 Rocky Mountains, a broad and treeless belt, known as " the Plains," separates two very different forest 
 floras, only two species being common to both, neither of them of much importance. E. of the Plains 
 the larger number of species are deciduous, or at least broad-leaved; and the entire region, excepting 
 the prairies of the West, was originally forest-clad. But while deciduous species predominate, there are 
 extensive pine forests from Louisiana to Maine, and some of the coniferous lumber produced has an 
 almost world-wide fame. Along the. Appalachians, from New Hampshire to Alabama, a larger number 
 of valuable hard woods occur than is known to any other temperate climate. The Ohio Valley is known 
 commercially for the size and excellence of some of its deciduous trees, notably black walnut, tulip, 
 bass, and ash, while Florida is equally noted for its live-oak. In Southern Florida are many truly tropical 
 forms, interesting to the botanist, but not sufficiently abundant to be of special economic importance. 
 Over the regions W. of the Plains extensive forests occur only on the mountains or near the sea, and 
 when found are essentially of Coniferas. Broad-leaved trees occur in this region, sometimes in consider- 
 able abundance, particularly in the western and southern portions, but they are usually scattered, aud 
 never form an important forest element. Conspicuous among these are the eottonwood along streams, 
 the mesquite of the southern parts, and several species of California and Oregon trees. Among the 
 latter, several oaks, the madrofia, laurel, Oregon ash, and the great-leaved maple are of most value, some 
 crowing to a great size and being of wondrous beauty. Along the western flanks of the Cascades and 
 Sierra Nevada, and also near the coast from Cape Mendocino northward, are perhaps the heaviest forests 
 on the globe. They are entirely of Coniferas. Trees of 200 feet high are in vast abundance ; trees 300 
 feet high aud 10 to 15 feet in di imeter uot being rare. All these figures are often exceeded. W. of the 
 Rocky Mountains many plains and slopes, and even mountains, which arc destitute of timber, are never- 
 theless abundantly and often densely clothed with shrubs. 
 
 The U. States is a Federal Republic. Its national existence commenced July 4th, 177(5, when the dele- 
 gates from the 13 original States, in Congress assembled at Philadelphia, declared that. " these united col- 
 onies are, and of right ought to be, free and independent States." After a 7 years' war with Great Bri- 
 tain, a preliminary treaty of peace was sfgned in Paris, November 20, 1782, and on the 3d of September, 
 1783, a definitive' treaty was signed at Versailles, by which Great Britain formally acknowledged the 
 U. States to be free, sovereign and independent. In May, 1787, delegates of all the States, except Rhode 
 Island, assembled in general convention at Philadelphia, and after several months of peaceful deliberation 
 agreed upon the plan of government which now forms the Constitution of the U. States. Over a year 
 elapsed before the Constitution, which has secured the prosperity of the nation, and stands as a model 
 for other nations in the pursuit of freedom, received the ratification of a sufficient number of States to 
 give it a political existence, and nearly three years before it received the unauimous ratification of all the

 States and thus became, March 4th, 1789, the supreme law of the land. The original 13 States which 
 adopted the Constitution were New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, 
 New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, North Car ilina, South Carolina and Georgia. 
 In 180.3, Louisiana was purchased from the French for $15,000,000. Florida was ceded to the U. States by 
 Spain, in compensation for spoliations on American Commerce, for $5,000,000. The annexation of Texas 
 in 1845, led to a war with Mexico. By the treaty of peace which followed, Feb. 2d, 1848, Mexico granted 
 to the U. States the line of the Rio Grande as a boundary and also ceded New Mexico and California. 
 The U. States agreed to pay Mexico §15,000,000, and certain debts due by Mexico to Americans not ex- 
 ceeding in amount $3,500,000. In 1867, Alaska was purchased of Russia for $7,200,000. The actual num- 
 ber of States is 38, in addition to which there are 8 Territories with organized government ; the District 
 of Columbia, the seat of government, the Unorganized Territory of Alaska; and the Indian Territory. 
 These constitute the political divisions of the U. States. The following table shows the date of ratifica- 
 tion of the constitution by each of the 13 original States and the date of admission of each of the other

 In rapid increase of population (see pages 38 and 39), the U. States has surpassed all other nations. This 
 ivonderful progress is in part attributed to natural increase by excess of births over deaths among the 
 native population, but mostly to immigration. Still the current of emigration to America during the 170 
 years of the colonial history was slow and tedious when compared with that which commenced after the 
 war of independence, and especially when the success of American institutions had been tested by the 
 experience of one generation. Since the formation of the government, the U. Stales has been the 
 principal point of emigration from Europe, owing chiefly to the advantages presented to the laboring 
 classes, who constitute the great bulk of emigrants. From 1783 to 1820, year in which immigration began 
 to be officially recorded, it has been estimated that the whole number of aliens coming to the U. 
 States was about 250,000. The number of foreign-born passengers arriving in the ports of the U. States in 1820 
 was 8,385 , in 1825, 10,199 ; in 1830, 23,322 ; in 1835, 45,374 ; in 1840, 84,066 ; in 1845, 114,371 ; in 1850, 369,-

 in 1881, 669,431 ; in 1882, 788,992— immigration during each of the two years last named surpassing that, of 
 any previous years in the history of the country. The following table shows the whole number of immi-

 To these might be added many thousand persons who came from Canada, and of whom no record is 
 made. According to the census of 18S9, in 31 States and Territories, in the past decade, natural increase 
 has gained upon immigration, while in 12 the reverse is the case; but in the U. States as a whole there 
 is a relative decrease of the foreign element. 
 
 The Government of the U. States is one of limited powers, all authority not delegated to it by ihe 
 Constitution being reserved to the States severally or to the people. It consists of three branches — the 
 executive, the legislative and the judicial. The executive power is vested in a President, who, with a Vice- 
 President, is elected for a period of four years by a college of electors chosen for that purpose by the peo- 
 ple of the several States, each State returning as many electors as it has Senators and representatives i:i 
 Congress. The electors are chosen by popular vote at an election held every four years ou the Tuesday 
 next after the first Monday in November. The electors thus chosen meet in each State on the fh\-t Wed- 
 nesday in December, and cast their votes for President and Vice-President. The certificates of these 
 votes are opened by the president of the Sjnate on the second Wednesday of February iu the presence of 
 the two Houses of "Congress, when the votes are counted and the result declared. The official term of 
 the officer declared elected begins on the 4th of March following. In case of t he removal, death, resigna- 
 tion or inability of the President, the Vi 'e-Preiident succeeds to his office. When there is no election of 
 President by the people from the fact that no candidate has a majority of the electoral votes, the House 
 of Representatives chooses a President from the three having the highest numberof votes, the representa- 
 tives of each State together easting one vote. The President may be removed on impeachment for high 
 crimes and misdemeanors. He is commander-in-chief of the army and navy, and of the militia of the 
 several States when called into the service of the general government. With the advice of the Senate he 
 has power to make treaties, appoint ambassadors, judges of the Supreme Court, and other public officers 
 of the U. States whose appointment is not otherwise provided for by the Constitution. The Presi- 
 dent and Vice-President must be native-born citizens, thirty-five years of age, and fourteen years resident 
 withi i the United States. The President i-s assisted by a cabinet of seven ministers, called the Secretaries 
 of State, of the Treasury, of the Interior, of War and of the Navy, the Attorney-General and the Post- 
 master-General. These are the heads of the seven executive departments of the government, who are 
 nominated by the President and confirmed by the Senate. Annual reports are made to Congress, through 
 the President, by the chiefs of the departments above named, commuaicatiug all important facts respect- 
 ing the commercial, financial and economic transactions of the whole country at home and abroad. The 
 legislative branch of the government consists of a Congress, composed of a Senate and House of Repre- 
 sentatives. The Senate consists of two Senators from e^ach State chosen by the respective legislatures for 
 six years, and the body is so divided as to the times of election that one-third of the whole number goes 
 out of office every two years. The Vice-President of the United States is the president of the Senate 
 ex-officio, and the Senate elects a president pro tempore to serve in his absence. A Senator must be thirty 
 years of age, nine year„ a citizen of the United States, and at the time of his election resident within the 
 State for which he is chosen. The House of Representatives is composed of members chosen for two 
 years by the people of each State. They must be twenty-five years of age, and have been citizens of the 
 United States seven years, and at the time of their election resident within the States for which they are 
 chosen. The number of members of this body is determined bylaw, and they are apportioned amonarthe 
 several States according to their representative population. The number of representatives iz. ^czgress 
 and of electoral votes of each State are fixed by the law of 1882, as follows :

 A GENERAL VIEW OF THE UNITED STATES. 
 
 States, to borrow money, to regulate commerce with foreign nations and among the several States, to coin 
 money, to provide for the common defence and general welfare, to declare war, to originate all bills re- 
 lating to revenue, and to exercise exclusive jurisdiction over the District of Columbia. Congress can 
 make no law for an establishment of religion or for prohibiting the free exercise thereof , or for abridging 
 the freedom of speech or of the press, or the right of the people peaceably to assemble and to petition 
 the government fora redress of grievances. The judicial branch of the government consists of a Supreme 
 Court, with a Chief Justice and eight Associate Justices, Circuit Courts, District Courts, and the Court of 
 Claims. There are also the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia aud the Territorial Courts. The 
 Judges of all the Federal Courts are appointed for life by the President, with the consent of the Senate, 
 but they may be removed for cause. Besides these Federal Courts and J udges each State has its own in- 
 dependent J udiciary. The executive power of each organized Territory is vested in a Governor, appoint- 
 ed for four years by the President, with the consent of the Senate. A Secretary is appointed for the same 
 period in the same manner. The Legislative power consists of a Council and House of Representatives, 
 chosen by the people for two years. A delegate to Congress is elected by the people in each Territory for 
 two years, who is entitled to speak in the House, but not to vote. Each individual State has a govern- 
 ment for the regulation of local and internal affairs, consisting of a Governor, Senate and House of Rep- 
 resentatives. All powers not expressly granted by the Constitution to the Federal Government, nor pro- 
 hibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively. The form of government in the several 
 States is and must be republican, and substantially the same, differing only in unimportant details of 
 their Constitution, such as the duration of terms of office, the mode of appointing Judges of the several 
 Courts, and the amount of their salaries. The territory of all the States is divided into counties, having 
 in each courts of justice and such local officers as the common interests demand. In many of the States 
 the counties are divided into townships, averaging six or eight miles square, which form important civil 
 districts aud corporations. The larger towns are incorporated as cities and boroughs, which have muni- 
 cipal governments. 
 
 The Army Department is in charge of a Secretary. The army is mainly employed in keeping up the 
 fortifications on the coast and lakes, in watching the movements of hostile and suspected Indians, and in 
 guarding the Mexican frontier. It is limited by law to 25,000 enlisted men ; the term of service is three 
 years. The highest officers consist of a General, a Lieutenant-General, three Major-Generals, six Brigadier- 
 Generals and seven Chiefs of Departments, with the rank of Brigadier-General. The total enlisted force of 
 the army, in 1882, was 23,598 men. There were 120 companies of cavalry, 60 of artillery, and 250 of 
 infantry. One hundred and two signal-stations are maintained for recording meteoric changes and giving 
 warning, for the benefit of commerce and agriculture, of the approach of storms. The protection and 
 improvement of rivers and harbors are directed by the Engineer Department of the Army under authority 
 of Congress. The Arsenals of the U. States are located at Kennebec, Watertown, Springfield, Mass., Al- 
 leghany, Watervliet, Fort Monroe, Augusta, Ga., Washington, Pikesville, Frankford, Detroit, Columbus, 
 Indianapolis, St. Louis, Rock Island, and Benicia. The Military Academy is situated at West Point. On 
 graduation the cadets are appointed to second lieutenancies in the army. By the Constitution, Congress 
 has power to provide for calling forth the militia of the several States to execute the laws of the Union, 
 suppress insurrections, and repel invasions, and also for the organizing, arming and disciplining the 
 militia, and for governing such part of them as may be employed in the service of the States ; to the 
 States respectively being reserved the appointment of officers and the authority of training the militia ac- 
 cording to the discipline prescribed by Congress. The President is Commander-in-Chief of the militia 
 when called into the actual service of the XL States. The actual expenditures under the War Depart- 
 ment for the year 1882 were $44,889,725.42. 
 
 The Navy Department is also a distinct executive branch, headed by a secretary. The naval force 
 on the navy list, in 1882, comprised 140 vessels, 25 of which were mere tugs, with a large number of others 
 entirely useless, and which could not, without a great expenditure of money, be made fit for service. 
 The bad condition of this important arm of the national service, quite unworthy of a great nation, has of 
 late excited public attention to a large extent. The chief officers on the active list are 1 admiral, 1 vice- 
 admiral, 12 rear admirals, 25 commodores, 50 captains and 90 commanders. The amount of appropriations 
 available for the year 1882 was $14,874,267.55. 
 
 Finances. The public debt of the U. States has chiefly accrued in consequence of the civil war. In 
 1858 it only amounted to $58,496,837 ; it reached its maximum in 1866, amounting then to $2,680,647,869, 
 successively reduced to $2,480,672,437 in 1870. The follow ng table prepared in the office of the Secretary 
 of the Treasury, shows its rapid aud steady reduction in each year from 1871 to 1882, inclusive :

 The amount of U. States bonds which are now due and paj'able at the pleasure of the government are 
 as follows : 
 
 Fives continued at three and a half per cent $155,356,350 
 
 Threes 259,370,500 
 
 Total 414,726,850 
 
 Those which next become redeemable are the four and a half per cents., which may be paid Septem- 
 ber 1, 1891 5250,000,000 
 
 Lastly, the four per cents., redeemable July 1, 1907 738,929,600 
 
 To which add refunding certificates 423,750 
 
 Making 739,353,350 
 
 The amount of the funded debt redeemable at any time before September 1, 1891, which will remain 
 unpaid on the 30th of June, 1883, is about $300,000,000, andupouthe following returns of revenues and 
 expenditures for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1882, the whole funded debt now redeemable could be 
 paid before June 30, 1886. This would leave as the surplus for more than five years the amount of 
 $600,000,000, undisposed of in the Treasury, unless the reduction of taxation on national banks tobacco, 
 etc., made iu 1883, be followed bv more important reductions on custom duties. The amount of the loan 
 redeemable in 1891, is only 8250,000,000, and, as has been stated, no other loan becomes redeemable until 
 1907, so that the annual surplus, supposing it to b'j only $75,000,000, will rapidly increase until that date. 
 The amount of the loan of 1907, as already appears, is less than $740,000,000, so that, were it all redeemable, 
 the whole public debt could be paid from a surplus as great as estimated early in the fiscal year ending 
 June 30, 1894. It has not often occurred in public financial history that embarrassment has arisen through 
 superabundance of revenues. The condition of the country in that respect, illustrates its almost boundless 
 resources, and establishes its credit beyond a question.

 The Rist- Office Departmejit is under the direction of the Postmaster-General. No other nation ha3 a 
 post-office system so extensive as that of the U. States. In 1882 there was in operation 11,098 mail routes 'of 
 which 11,013 were upon railways), aggregating in length 343.618 miles. The entire cost of the postal ser- 
 vice for the year stated was §40,482,021, and the gross revenues were $41,876,410, leaving a net surplus of 
 $1,394,789. The total number of post-offices in operation in 1870 was 28,492, increased to 46,231 in 1882 — 
 all given in the present work. 
 
 Education. There is no national system of education in the U.States, and the general government ex- 
 ercises no control over the common schools and makes no regular provision for their support, but Con- 
 gress has from time to time made liberal provision for educational purposes by grantsof land to the several 
 States. The only educational institutions which are wholly supported and controlled by the government 
 are the military' academy -at West Point, N.Y., the school of aitillery at Fortress Monroe, Va., and the 
 naval academy at Annapolis, Md. The general government has from time to time encouraged the estab- 
 lishment of common schools in the new States by large grants of land, and by the same means has pro- 
 vided for higher institutions by the endowment of a college in each State for instruction in agriculture and 
 mechanic arts. The organization and control of these institutions is given to the respective States, and 
 many of them are now in operation. For these institutions and for common schools, more than 75,000,000 
 acres of land have been appropriated by the government. The expenditures for public schools in the 
 several States and Territories for the year 1882 amounted to $84,913,834. 
 
 Railroads. The first railroad in America was built in 1823 ; it was a tram-road of 4 miles, u^ed for the 
 transportation of granite to the harbor of Boston. Another tram-road of 4 miles was built in 1827, for the 
 transportation of coal from the pit's mouth, near Maueh Chunk to the Lehigh Canal. In li28 the attempt 
 was first made to construct a railroad adapted alike to the transportation of passengers and freight. The 
 Erie Canal had cut off the trade which Philadelphia and Baltimore had hitherto received from the West ; 
 and as the project of a canal from the city of Baltimore to the Ohio was regarded by many as impracticable, 
 the merchants of that city, in 1827, procured the charter of the present Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. On 
 the 4th of July, 1828, its construction was begun, and on the 2d day of May, 1830, the first section of 
 15 miles, to Ellicott's Mills, was opened. Like all others constructed at that time, it was an unsubstantial 
 structure, with longitudinal sills, on which was placed a thin bar or strap of iron. Although locomotive 
 engines had obtained some use in England, this road continued for nearly a year after its opening to be 
 operated by horse power. The first locomotive ever used in the U. States, was one imported from Eng- 
 land in 1829., constructed at Stourbridge, and called the " Stourbridge Lion." This engine was imported 
 for use upon the Carbondale and Honesdale Railroad, belonging to the Delaware and Hudson Canal Com- 
 pany, and extending from their canal toward the mines. The first experimental trip was made by it on 
 the 8th of August, 1829. The Stourbridge Lion was found too heavy for the track, and it consequently 
 had to be abandoned. The first locomotive built in the U. States, and the second ever in use in it, was 
 made at the West Point Foundry Works in New York, in 1830. It was called " The Best Friend of Charles- 
 ton," having been built for use on the South Carolina Railroad, then in process of construction. It was 
 placed on the road Nov. 2, 1830. It has been already referred to the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, which 
 preceded all others in point of time. The next important one was the South Carolina, begun in 1830, and 
 opened for traffic in 1833 for its whole length (135 m.). At that time it was the longest continuous line of 
 railroad in the world. The construction of the Mohawk and Hudson, now a part "of the New York Cen- 
 tral, was begun in 1830. It was opened (17 m.) in 1831. In New Jersey, that portion of the Camden and 
 Amboy extending from Bordentown to Hightstown (14 m.) was opened on the 22d of December, 1830, and 
 between Hightstown and South Amboy (474 m.)in 1834. In Pennsylvania, a considerable extent of line for 
 the transportation of coal had been constructed previous to 1835. In 1834 the Philadelphia and Columbia 
 (82 m. ) and the portage Railroad (36 m.), were opened. Their completion gave that State a continuous 
 line, made up of canal and railroads, from Philadelphia to the Ohio R. at Pittsburg. In Massachusetts, 
 in 1835, the Boston and Worcester Railroad (44 m.), the Boston and Providence (41 m.), and the Boston 
 and Lowell (26 m.), were all opened for business. The total extent of mileage in operation in all the States 
 at the close of the year 1835 was 1,098 m. The superstructure of the railroads first constructed was a longi- 
 tudinal sill, the rail or strap of iron laid upon it, serving to prevent the abrasion of the wood rather than 
 to support the train. Of course, until the wooden sill gave place to the heavy iron rail, no considerable 
 rate of speed or amount of traffic was possible. The change from wood to iron was a very gradual one. 
 It was not until 1850 that the longitudinal sill and flat rail were entirely removed from the Utica and Sche- 
 nectady, the most, important link in the New York Ceutral line. The Erie and the Hudson River Railroads 
 were opened in 1851. The first Hue of railroa.ls undertaken in the great interior basin of the country was 
 the Mad River of Ohio, now a part of the Cincinnati, Sandusky and Cleveland. The Mississippi River was 
 reached in 1854 by the Chicago & Rock Island Railroad, and the Missouri in 1859 by the Hannibal & St. 
 Joseph. Their extension was followed in 1866 by a line through Iowa, an extension of the Galena <Ss 
 Chicago to Council Bluffs, and to a connection at that point with the Union Pacific. That great work was 
 opened May 10, 1869, and, in connection with the Central Pacific, completed the grand line of railway, the

 crowning achievement of our people, from ocean to ocean. The greet trunk lines being put in, they were 
 speedilyconnected by other lines, so as now to form a net-work whose meshes are so numerous as tc 
 give every farmer in the West, a market at its own door. The table on pages 36 and 37, shows the mileage, 
 capital, cost and revenue of all the railroads in the U. States iu 18S0. 
 
 Mineral ant) Metalltc Products. There is scarcely a metal or mineral used in the arts or known 
 to science which may not bj found iu the U. States chietly West of the Rocky .Mountains, and generally 
 iu greater abundance than iu any other country. Scarcely any precious stones, however, have been found. 
 A single diamond has been discovered in Rutherford county, North Carolina, and it is said that some of 
 these gems have been found in California. Topaz occurs at Monroe in Connecticut, chalcedony in many 
 localities, and agates and carnelians are numerous along the banks of the Upper Mississippi and the shores 
 of Lake Superior. The more valuable precious stones, however, the ruby, the emerald, etc., have not 
 yet been found. 
 
 Go 1 d and Silver. Gold has been obtained for many years from a metalliferous belt •which extends 
 along the eastern Dase of the Alleghauies from Northern New England to Georgia, the southern portion 
 being the most productive. Native gold began to appear in the mint at Philadelphia iu 1824, and the 
 receipts increased rapidly, so that iu a few years it constituted the principal supply of this metal. The value of 
 the gold mined annually in Virginia, North and South Carolina and Georgia, averaged about 81,000,000 ; 
 but when the discovery of gold in California in 1848 was announced, most of the "placer" deposits and 
 many of the veins in the South were abandoned. Tne California gold-field extends almost continuously 
 over seven degrees of latitude, and in no portion of this territory have mines been completely exhausted. 
 Nevada and Colorado are scarcely second to California in their mineral wealth, and the Nevada silver 
 mines are particularly of extraordinary richness. Chains of silver mines are found also in Arizona, Idaho, 
 New Mexico, Utah, Montana and Wyoming. Gold is also found in these territories, and in Oregon, Wash- 
 ington and Alaska. The discovery of gold in California and other regions west of the Rocky Mts., led to 
 great activity in mining industry, the effects of which have been felt not only in the U. States, but in all 
 the world. There are thousands of mine ; scattered over an area embracing more than half the territory 
 of the U. States, each yielding annually more or less gold and silver. Complete statistics of the aggregate 
 production of all these mines are secured with difficulty. The following is the estimated production of 
 the different States and Territories, as given by the director of the mint in his report for the year ending 
 June 30, 1880.

 Coal. The coal-beds of the U. States are more extensive than those of any other part of the world 
 The coal is of two kinds, viz., anthracite and bituminous. The extent oi the coal-fields has been estimated 
 at 231,485 sq. m. as certain, with the strong probability of the existence of 333,000 sq. m. in addition in the 
 West. If we admit the correctness of this last estimate — and judging by previous experience, it will be 
 exceeded rather than diminished by the reality — the coal-fields of the U. States cover the immense area of 
 624,485 sq. m., or more than one-third of the largest estimate made for the coal-producing fields of the 
 whole world. The 291,485 sq. m., which are regarded as certain, are thus divided : New England anthra- 
 cite field, in Vt. and Mass., 500 sq. m.; Pa. anthracite fields, 470 ; Southern Jurassic coal-fields (in Va. and 
 N.C.), 220 ; Alleghany coal-field (extending from Lake Erie to Tuscaloosa, Ala., and occupying portions of 
 Pa., O., Va., W.Va., Ky., Teun., Ga. and Ala.), 53,895; Central coal-field (extending through Ind., 111. 
 and Ky.), 40,000; Northern coal-field, 13,000 ; Western coal-field (outside the Permian), 134,000 ; Rocky 
 Mountain and far west Tertiary coals, 50,000. When this area is compared with that of the productive 
 coal-fields of the rest of the world, it gives a result very flattering to this country until the amount pro- 
 duced is examined. The productive coal region of the U. States is, as given above, nearly 300,000 sq. m. 
 in extent, while that of other countries is less than 100,000 — so far, that is, as is certainly known ; but the 
 annual production of coal in the U. States is less than 80,000,000 tons, while Great Britain alone, with a 
 coal-field covering only 9,000 sq. m., produces annually more than 100,000,000 tons. The following table 
 exhibits the quantity (in tons of 2,240 pounds) of coal produced in the U. States during the years 1870, 
 1880 and 1881.

 Iron. The loading State in the possession of iron ore is Missouri. Iron Mountain is thought to be 
 the largest single deposit of ore in the known world. The ores of Pilot Knob, Shepherd Mountain, Cedar 
 Hill and Buford Mountain are next in interest. The Iron Mountain ore may be taken as a type of all the 
 Missouri specular ores. It is nearly pure peroxide, containing abt. 70 per cent, of metallic ore, and is 
 nearly free from mechanical admixture of foreign matter ; color, bluish black to steel gray. Unfortu- 
 nately, Mo. does not possess the large coal-fields of some regions, but the coal found in Illinois is now suc- 
 cessfully coked and furnishes good fuel for blast-furnace purposes. Michigan contains the " Lake Supe- 
 rior Iron Region," which, though probably not so rich as the deposits in Mo., is being more extensively 
 worked and is giving a larger annual yield. New York has been celebrated for the variety and quality of 
 various ores, but especially for the magnetic ores of the Lake Champlain region, which have supplied not 
 only her own furnaces, but those of other States, and have furnished to all the rolling-mills east of the Alle- 
 ghanies the requisite materials for fettling or liniug the plates of the puddling furnaces. Pennsylvania has 
 been frequently spoken of as the greatest iron-producing State of the Union, and in figures of iron manufacture 
 she is pre-eminent ; but this is due rather to the wealth in fuel of this State and to the patient industry of 
 her people than to any mineral abundance. Indeed, there is scarcely one of the States noted for iron ores 
 which does not surpass Pa. in ore wealth, and, be it added, not. one of them that has made the use of what 
 she possesses that Pa. has. In magnetic ores New York, New Jersey, Virginia, North Carolina, Missouri 
 and Michigan far surpass her. Massachusetts, Vermont, Virginia and Tennessee far exceed her in brown 
 hematites. The fossiliferous ores of Pa. are not to be mentioned with those of Alabama ; the carbonates 
 cannot compare with those of Ohio, Kentucky and West Virginia ; and yet Pa. made 50 per cent, in 1870 
 and 49 per cent, in 1880 of the total product of pig-iron. It has been patient industry, hard work, frugality 
 and plenty of coal that have made Pa the great iron-making State that she is. The relative rank of all 
 the States and Territories engaged in the production of iron and steel in 1880 is given in the following table:

 A GENERAL VIEW OE THE UNITED STATES. 
 
 Copper. The leading copper mines in the U. States arc those of Michigan, on the southern shore of 
 Lake Superior. The mines were worked in some places by the predecessors of the Indians on this con- 
 tinent. A large mass of ore, detached, and some stone tools were found by the first white visitors to one 
 of the mines, and these were not left there by the Indians, who were ignorant of the art of mining. The 
 working of these mines by white people began in 1845, and it is stated that between that time and 1888, the 
 total value of the production of this region was $51,292,500. From that time there has been a marked in- 
 crease in the production. For the year 1880 the products of copper mining in the U. States 
 amounted to 1,005,955 tons of ore or rock, producing 50,655,140 pounds of ingots, worth $8,842,901. Of 
 this product the Lake Superior region furnished. 90.48 per cent., and the balance came, in order of import- 
 ance, from Vermont, North Carolina, Missouri, Maine, Pennsylvania, Maryland and Wisconsin. 
 
 Lead is chiefly mined in Missouri, Illinois and Iowa; Zinc and Nickel in Pennsylvania, aud Quick- 
 silver exclusively in California (see the names of these States). 
 
 Petroleum is chiefly found in Pennsylvania, Ohio, West Virginia and New York. The product of this 
 valuable commodity in large quantities is a business of relatively recent origin and growth. The ancient 
 method of obtaining it is thus given by Eaton " A point was selected where the oil appeared to bubble 
 up most freely, when a ^jit was excavated to the depth of two or three feet. Sometimes this pit was rudely 
 walled up, sometimes not. Sometimes it was near the edge of the water, on the bauk of the stream, some- 
 times in thebed of the stream itself, advantage being taken of a time of low water In these pits the oil 
 and water would collect together until a stratum of the former would form upon the surface of the latter, 
 when a coarse blanket or piece of flannel was thrown in. This blanket soon became saturated with oil, 
 but rejected the water. The blanket was thun taken out, wrung into a tub or barrel, and the operation 
 was repeated. The product was figurativel/ " a drug in the market," and literally was used only as a 
 drug. In 1854, several barrels of petroleum were sent to Prof. Silliman, of Yale College, for analysis. He 
 made ■< report which Eveleth & Blissel (who had purchased the "territory "where the principal oil springs 
 were foun 1), published iu 1855. In this year the first oil company, " The Pennsylvania Rock Oil C >mpany 
 was organized, with Prof. Silliman as president. Until 1857, oil was obtained by digging pits arid ditches and 
 pumping the oil aud water into vats. The substitution of artesian wells for this tedious process was then de- 
 cided upon. The first efforts were unsuccessful, but Col. E. L. Drake, who acted is agent and superin- 
 tendent, was unremitting in his attempts, and on the 28th of August, 1859, the first oil well in America 
 was struck, near Titusville, Pa. It yielded ten barrels per day with a hand-pump, and when a larger 
 pump, worked by an engine, was attached, the yield rose to forty barrels. As oil was then worth one dol- 
 lar per gallon, or forty dollars per barrel, this yield was of considerable value. Speculators were attracted, 
 other wells were bored, and many were for a while " flowing wells." One well yielded for a time more 
 than 3,000 barrels per day : and in this case and others the oil came up more rapidly than it could be pro- 
 vided for, so that much of it ran away and wasted. The " oil excitement " culminated in 1864-5, when 
 1,100 companies were formed, with a nominal aggregate capital of $600,000,000, though only about 15 per 
 cent, of this amount, or $90,000,000, was really paid in, and even this sum so far exceeded the quantity of 
 capital required that some of it received but a poor return. Since that time, though local " excitements " 
 occasionally occur, the oil bus-mess has settled down upon a comparatively legitimate and solid basis. The 
 use of powerful " torpedoes " (the main ingredient in the explosive material of which is nitro-glycerine), 
 has greatly improved the chauces of obtaining oil and of retaining the productive power of a well. These 
 valuable auxiliaries are put down into the wells and exploded, the result frequently being the tapping of 
 hitherto inaccessible deposits of oil. The price of crude oil is more susceptible to unexpected and violent 
 fluctuations than that of any other commodity in which there are extensive speculative dealings. It re- 
 quires but a little reflection upon the relative positions of the wheat, cotton, corn, pork, and the petroleum 
 "crops" — so to speak — to note differences between that last-named and those remaining. Of the four 
 commodities first mentioned it is easily perceived that what may be called their statistical positions are 
 sooner or later determined within a fair approximation to the actual outcome, and this, prior to the crop 
 in mind having all come " in sight." The counties in which cotton, wheat and corn are raised in excess of 
 consumptive demands are known, and the surplus shipped for a series of years is a matter of record. A 
 careful report by counties as to the increased acreage in each county affords a basis of reliable 
 estimate as to the forthcoming harvest, subject, of course, to modifying influences, such as the weather, 
 insects, drouth, flood, etc. The prospects of the corn crop exercise an important influence on the char- 
 acter if not the number of hogs to come into market, and the weekly receipts of hogs and packing returns, 
 compared with those of preceding years, afford a fair check on reports concerning livestock in farmers' 
 hands. Iu these and kindred ways are the statistical positions of wheat, corn, cotton and hog products 
 kept well in hand. When causes arise tending to change the outlook they are generally of such a nature 
 that they may be seen and read of all men, and the consequent variations in current quotations are often 
 anticipated and very readily taken advantage of. When an analysis of the petroleum situation is at- 
 tempted like results are not found. The statistical position of petroleum nas ever been and still remains 
 in part problematical. Unlike the other " crops " named, it furnishes a harvest daily instead of annually. 
 The reports of operations iu the producing regions are compiled by one of the Pennsylvania exchanges 
 and are published monthly. These relate to the number of wells completed, the number of rigs up and 
 building, the total new production of oil in barrels and gross, and the average new production in barrels 
 daily. These figures, with comparative data from the mouth preceding, or the corresponding month one 
 year ago, affords certain gauges of production. In addition, however, there are the statistics of stocks on 
 hand and quantities received and shipped outof the regionfrom month to month, the number of barrels in 
 stock against which certificates have been issued, the prospect of new wells, their rate of production, etc., 
 which are in many particulars speculative. As an instance of this, the information has from time to time 
 been given out on the various petroleum exchanges that such or such a new well is flowing at the rate of 
 2,400 barrels daily. This may be in one sense true, but the statement is manifestly put in that shape to 
 affect prices, for the probabilities are that the well only spurted 100 barrels for one hour, and was then 
 plugged to prevent the possibility of early exhaustion, and that the owners might take advantage of the 
 market which they knew would be offered t h em on the announcement of a 2,400-barrel well. They sell 
 thousands of barrels of oil short through a cipher dispatch to brokers at Oil City, Bradford, Philadelphia,

 or New York, and immediately forward the news of a 2,403-barrcl we'.l. TUi; breaks prices perhaps 7e. or 
 8c. a barrel, and they close out the deal at a handsome profit. The current reports attest that the average 
 daily production of oil is about 56,000 barrels. The to'al stocks, including that held by pipe line com- 
 panies and stocks at wells, cannot be ess than 36,000,003 barrels. The average daily consumption is con- 
 ceded to be but little less than the production. If it was equal to it and the region should suddenly be- 
 come exhausted there is oil enough above ground to last nearly two years. Yet, with a small daily ex- 
 cess of production over consumption, the announcement that anew well has "come in " flowing at the rate 
 of 1,800 barrels, "which may extend th.s oil-bearing territory 500 feet further north," will knock priei sdown 
 7c. a barrel, reducing the nominal value of stocks of crude over S'3,500,030 within twenty-four hours. The 
 importance of knowing the exact quantity of oil in stock in the hands of the pipe line companies has been 
 recognized by the movement at Harrisburg to provide State inspectors to gauge the oil in tank in the 
 region at regular intervals and report thereon. Considering the magnitude of speculative transactions in 
 crude petroleum, and the fact that these dealings are dependent oq the venturesome outsider, it would 
 seem as if some movement for comprehensive and reliable datx, weekly, from a recognized responsible 
 source had become a necessity. (For production and exports of petroleum from 1864 to 1882, 6ee page 40.) 
 
 Agriculture. The agricultural advantages of the United States are not surpassed by those of any 
 other country on the globe. The fertile soil, tlie favorable climate, the abundant and equable rainfall, and 
 the great range of latitude, render the eastern half of the U. States, in the quantity, variety and value of 
 its agricultural productions, the richest large section of the earth inhabited by a single nation. Every 
 variety of soil may be found, from the dry and almost sterile plains of the Great Basin to the rich alluvi- 
 ums of the Mississippi valley and the borders of its tributaries. That portion of the eouutry drained by 
 the rivers and lakes of which the St. Lawrence isth3 outlet to the ocean, including parts of Vermont, New 
 York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin aud Minnesota, and all of Michigan, is an elevated 
 and fertile plain, and generally well supplied with wood. The Atlantic slope embraces all New England, 
 except a part of Vermont, and a portion of all the States bordering on the Atlantic and the Gulf of Mex- 
 ico. Thi northeast portion of this division is hilly, and the greater portion of it better adapted to grazing 
 than tillag >, though many parts of it are fertile and among the most carefully cultivated land in the 
 country. Some parts of the coast b-;lt are 6 mdy, though capable of being made highly productive ; other 
 portions are swampy, with considerable tracts of rich alluvial soil. The inland slope from the mountains 
 towards the coast has some of the finest land ill the U. States, with rich soil of alluvium from the 
 mountains and the decomposition of rocks which underlie the surface. The long and broad valley of the 
 Mississippi, embraces nearly two-fl.fi hs of the area of the U. States, extending from the Alleghany to 
 the Rocky Mountains, and from the Gulf of Mexico to the British possessions on the north. Much of this 
 territory is prairie of unequaled fertility, the soil being a black mould, in many places several feet in 
 depth. At the base ot the Rocky Mountains is a plateau, which is a part of this great valley, from 200 to 
 400 miles wide, which is in a great degree sterile, owing to insufficient rain and want of means of irriga- 
 tion. The Texas slope has extensive prairies of rich and fertile soil, with broad tracts of forest. The 
 more elevated regions are excellent for grazing, and yield nourishing pasture for vast herds of cattle. Of 
 the Pacific slope much is sterile and unproductive, though that part lying between the Coast range and the 
 ocean and the valleys between the Coast range and the Cascade range and the Sierra Nevada are very fertile ; 
 other valleys and mountain slopes are better adapted to pasturage than to agriculture. The great inland 
 basin of Utah, including parts of other States and Territories, is probably the most desolate and unpro- 
 ductive portion of the country ; yet in many sections, by means of irrigation, good crops are gathered. A 
 considerable advance in production was made during the last decade, as exhibited in the following table 
 of the principal crops of the census year 1880, iriveu in comparison with the crops of the census year 1870 :

 The greatness of agricultural production and the abundance of breadstuffs and food product of the 
 U. States, are the features of material prosperity most prominent before the world. This is not due 
 to the new laud, for lands used in 1870 increased in product even more than new areas, and the ratio of 
 the crops was largely increased from lands averaging 830 an acre. Not many years since the Genesee 
 Valley and the central parts of the State of New York, were mainly devoted to the production of wheat. 
 From that point its cultivation gradually moved westward and northward, but this cnauge is far from 
 marking the decay, the farms of these parts of the State being now better cultivated and more productive 
 than when they were devoted to wheat. Mulhall, in his " Balance Sheet of the World," puts the U. States 
 at the head in product and in consumption per head. The product he gives as 48 bushels for each in- 
 habitant, and the consumption of grain as over40 bushels for each. That is, in some way — directly or in- 
 directly — that amount of grain is used up for each person in the United States. Professor Brewer puts 
 production at 53.7 bushels a head, and so gives a larger surplus for export. Steam transportation and im- 
 proved farm machinery brings us into close relation to the social economies of the old world, and are 
 producing startling effects in modifying their customs and their laws, and, it might be added, are produc- 
 ing great modifications in American customs and social life. 
 
 The following statement, compiled from the Treasury report of commerce and navigation, shows the 
 value of the exports of agricultural products, with their immediate manufactures, for the 10 years, 1871- 
 1880, and their percentage in regard to the value of the total exports :

 Upon one-fourteenth part of their whole soil, or upon one-seventh part of that which is fit for agri- 
 culture, the U. States produce the hay and roots that they require, and all the grains and cotton that they 
 need, with so much more that even if they did not produce an ounce of gold or silver, they could com- 
 mand the treasures of the world. Yet if we consider the average product per acre in respect to every one 
 of these crops, we find that it does not exceed one-half the quantity that even a reasonable good system of 
 agriculture would bring forth. If we consider the conditions under which each and all of these great 
 crops of grain, hay, cotton, etc., are produced, we find that they represent in the lesser degree only, the art 
 of agriculture. 
 
 Manufactures. — Up to the time of the Revolution, a large proportion of the colonial manufactures 
 was the product of household industries ; but the increasing population and wealth of the colonies early 
 gave rise to manufactories devoted to special industries. Furnaces and forges were constructed for the 
 manufacture of it on and steel, and manufactories of vehicles, household furniture, farm implements, hats 
 and caps, gloves, woolen and cotton goods, silk goods, linen goods, leather, gunpowder, paper, books, 
 bags, and other articles, were established in several of the colonies, but chiefly in New York and New 
 England. From the very beginning, the colonists exhibited a marked aptitude for mechanical pursuits. 
 The exigencies of their social, industrial, and commercial life excited the quest for discoveries, and stimu- 
 lated genius to new inventions and adaptations. The fact that they were so far removed from the methods 
 which characterized European mechanical industries gave a stamp of originality to American manufactures, 
 which, in latter days, has manifested itself in the peculiarities of a thousand mechanic arts. The success 
 of the industrial enterprises of the colonists was based upon faculty and wholesome lives. Through the 
 tuition of self-culture, from generation to generation, inventive genius became an inherited instinct. From 
 an early date the mother country bitterly opposed the establishment of manufactures in the American 
 colonies, her avowed policy being to confine their external commerce to the exportation of products of 
 agriculture, of the forest, and of the fisheries, to England alone and in British ships, and in return to supply 
 them with the products of her own manufactories. But this policy served only to illustrate the irony of 
 events. In the end, it proved to be protective and stimulating, and not repressive of the colonial indus- 
 tries. The restraints imposed by the British Government in connection with the duties laid upon colonial 
 produce when imported into Great Britain, and the great cost of transporting the crude products of the 
 colonies across the Atlantic Ocean, left little to them for their labor. In order, therefore, to supply their 
 needs, they were forced to create a market for their products by becoming their own artificers. House- 
 hold mechanical industry increased, and hundreds of manufactories were established in the several colo- 
 nies. The sales of goods of colonial manufacture were at first confined to the towns or neighborhoods in 
 which they were produced, but soon were extended to greater distances. An intercolonial trade thus 
 sprang up which was the beginning of the enormous internal commerce of the U. States of the present day. 
 After a while, the colonies were enabled to export their manufactured pro lucts to foreign countries, and 
 they did so to a considerable extent, in defiance of the edicts of the mother country. The vigorous growth 
 attained by American manufacture during the colonial period is evidenced by the fact that the colonists 
 were able to meet all their home needs, and besides to clothe their army during the terrible struggle of the 
 seven years' war. In his message to Congress, dated January 8, 1790, President Washington invited the 
 attention of that body to the importance of promoting manufactures. On the 15th of January the House 
 of Representatives, by resolution, referred this portion of the President's message to Alexander Hamilton, 
 Secretary of the Treasury, " to prepare and report a proper plan, or plans, conformably to the recommen- 
 dation of the President." Hamilton's memorable report in reply to this resolution was submitted to the 
 next Congress. It has perhaps justly been regarded as the ablest of all his State papers. He recommended 
 a vigorous system of protection and encouragement of American industries by means of duties on imports, 
 bounties, and premiums. It must be remembered that these measures were, in high degree, retaliatory, 
 similar measures being at that time enforced by other commercial nations. It should also be observed 
 that he did not announce the measures which he advocated as being applicable to all countries and at all

 times. The conditions under which manufacture are carried on have, since the days of Hamilton, under- 
 gone radical changes, as the result of the increase and expansion of population, the introduction and ex- 
 tension of railroads, and the greatly increased facilities for transportation, and as the result also of dis- 
 coveries, inventions, and adaptations. The variety of manufactured articles have been almost infinitely 
 increased, and their ministration to the needs, tastes, and habits of the people have been multiplied a thou- 
 sand-fold. Hundreds of manufactured articles, formerly imported, are now supplied in our own markets 
 exclusively by American artisans. With respect to certain other articles, the American manufacturer is 
 able to compete in foreign markets with the manufacturers of other countries. The value of exports of 
 products of manufacture from the U. States increased from $45,658,873 in 1860 to $103, 132,481 in 1882, ex- 
 ceeding in the latter year the total value of imports into the U. States during the year 1840. It is not of 
 course practicable here to trace the history of the struggle between the advocates and the opponents of 
 governmental protection of manufacturers from the time of Hamilion to the present day. Suffice it to say, 
 that while neither policy has ever been fully adopted, the preponderance of public sentiment has been 
 sometimes on one side and sometimes on the oth'>r. Attention will here be confined to the growth of the 
 manufacturing industries of the U. States since the year 1850, but especially since the year 1860. Accord- 
 ing to the census, the value of the products of manufactures in the U. States was, in 1850, $1,019,106,616 ; 
 in 1860, $1,885,861,676 ; in 1870, $3,432,415,933 ; and in 1880, $5,369,579,191. During the period from 1860 
 to 1880 the manufacturing industries of the U. States were more highly protected than during any previ- 
 ous period in the history of the country. The average ad valorem rate on imported merchandise was in- 
 creased from fourteen per cent, in 1861 to forty-two per cent, in 1865. It is an historical fact, however, 
 that this large increase of duties was prompted by the needs of national defense and not by any prevailing 
 sentiment in favor of the protection of American enterprise. As the result of the large increase of duties 
 on imports, the customs revenues increased from $39,038,269 in 1861 to $177,056,523 in 1866. Although the 
 duties on the tea and coffee were reduced in 1870 and abolished in 1872, and the reductions of* duties were 
 subsequently made, the aggregate duties on imports during the year 1882, had increased to $216,138,916. 
 At the same time the foreign commerce of the U. States grew more rapidly than ever before. The total 
 value of exports increased from $333,576,057 in 1800 to $835,638,658 in 1880 and the value of imports in- 
 creased from $353,616,119 in 1S60 to $667,954,746 in 1880. During the same period agriculture, mining, 
 internal commerce, and all the other great business interests of the country. The immediate relations 
 sustained by manufactures to the several sections of the country are indicated by the following facts in re- 
 gard to the distribution of manufacturing and mechanical industries : According to the census of 1880 the 
 products of manufacture in the U. States were distributed thus : 21 per cent, in New England States; 41 
 per cent, in the States of New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland and the District of 
 Columbia ; 294 per cent, in the Western and Northwestern States ; 2J per cent, in the States of Virginia, 
 North Carolina, South Carolina, and Florida ; 3J per cent, in the States of Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama, 
 Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, and Arkansas ; and 3i per cent, in the States of California, Oregon, and 
 Nevada. These facts show the extent to which the manufacturing industries of the U. States have become 
 nationalized. Within the memory of men of middle age, the great West was dependent almost entirely 
 upon the East and upon foreign countries for manufactured products. But the value of the manufactures 
 of that section increased from S346,675,290 in 1860 to $1,583,235,703 in 1880. During the latter year, the 
 value of the products of manufacture of the Western and Northwestern States was fifty per cent, greater 
 than the total value of the products of manufacture in the U. States in 1850, and almost equal to the total 
 value of the manufactures of the country in 1860. The very fact of the movement of manufactures to- 
 ward the great surplus producing agricultural area of the West clearly proves the mutuality of interest 
 existing between those two great branches of industry. 
 
 Through the improvement and extension of the facilities for transportation, and the growing tendency 
 on the part of local traders to purchase "at first hand," the manufacturer has, to a great extent, become 
 a merchant, and local points of manufacture have thus become centers of trade. The products of the 
 manufactures of the West are now shipped not only to all points in the Western States, but also exten- 
 sively to the Southern States and to the Eastern States, and certain articles are even exported to foreign 
 countries. In view of the present rate of increased manufactures in the Western States, the rapid growth 
 and improvement in the facilities for transportation by rail, and the constant tendency of population west- 
 ward, it appears safe to predict this, if nothing shall occur to repress the present prosperity of the manu- 
 facturing industries of these States during the remaining years of the century, there will be developed 
 between the agricultural and the manufacturing industries of these States a commerce equal in magnitude 
 to the foreign commerce of the U. States at the present time. Experience has proved that, the domestic 
 commerce thus created will be much more steady and reliable, and, in all probability, in the end more 
 productive on individual and national wealth than trade with foreign countries. 
 
 The advantages realized by the transportation interests of the country from manufactures cannot be 
 stated with precision. About ten per cent, of the east-bound, and ninety per cent, of the west-bound 
 traffic of the great East and West trunk lines consist of products of manufactures. From the best infor- 
 mation which can be procured, it is estimated that manufactured articles, together with materials and the 
 coal required for supplying motive power in manufacturing industries, constitute about one-half of the 
 freight tonnage of the railroads of the United States. It is probable that considerably more than one- 
 half of the freight receipts of railroads is derived from the transportation of manufactured articles and of 
 material and coal required in their production. This is evident from the fact that the higher and better 
 paying classes of freight consist chiefly of manufactured articles. 
 
 The importance of the relations sustained by manufactures to the internal commerce of the U. States 
 is indicated by the fact, that the value of the latter is estimated to be at least twenty times as great as the 
 foreign trade of the country. The total value of the products of manufactures, according to the census of 
 1880, is $5,369,579,191, of which only about $100,000,000, or 2 per cent., was exported, 98 per cent, having 
 been consumed at home, or, in other words, become the subject of internal commerce. The increased 
 value of manufactures from $1,885,861,676 in 1860 to $5,369,579,191 in 1880, of course gave rise to an enor- 
 mous increase in the internal commerce of the country. Manufactures now constitute the most important 
 elements of the commerce of large towns and cities. The prosperity even of New York city, the great 
 commercial entrepot of the country, at which port 77 per cent, of our foreign commerce is carried on, is, in 
 a much higher degree, dependent upon manufacturing industries than upon foreign commerce. During 
 
80 
 
 A GENERAL VIEW OF THE UNITED STATES. 
 
 the year ending June 30, 1880, the value of the total foreign commerce at that city amounted to 
 §852,497,243, the value of exports amounting to $392,560,090, and that of imports to $459,937,153. The 
 total value of the manufactures of the city, however, during the census year, amounted to $472,926,437, 
 and those of Brooklyn to $177,223,142. The total value of the manufactures of the two cities — commercially 
 one city — amounting, therefore, to $650,149,579. But. the manufacture and sale of every dollar's worth of 
 products of manufacture probably contributed ten times as much toward the employment of labor and 
 the sustenance of people in these cities as did every dollar's worth of foreign goods imported. The 
 manufacturing industries of the two cities involved not ouly wages paid for the manufacture of goods, but 
 also wages paid for transporting and receiving materials and coal, and delivering finished products. They 
 also required the use of, and paid rental upon, a large amount of property in the manufacture and storage 
 of merchandise. Besides, the manufactures of the two cities gave rise to a very large business in the pur- 
 chase and sale of raw materials, and of finished products. On the other hand, a large part of the foreign 
 exports of New York city consisted of direct shipments from interior points to foreign countries, and 
 another considerable portion paid little more than transfer and warehouse charges. A large portion of 
 the imports of merchandise also passed directly through the city without paying to it any commercial 
 tribute, excepting the incidental expenses of trans-shipment. Other imports paid little more than the 
 expenses of trans-shipment and warehousing. Besides the trade in the products of the manufactories of 
 New York and Brooklyn, the city of New York also controls the trade, in an enormous amount, of the 
 manufactured products of the New England States, New Jersey, and the State of New York, outside of 
 the two cities mentioned. It is beiieved that if any person were to take the time to ascertain the value of 
 the trade of wholesale houses in New York city dealing exclusively in products of Am rican manufacture 
 to an amount equal in the aggregate to the value of the entire foreign commerce carried on, at, or through 
 that city, he would be surprised to find how small a proportion of the business operations of the city his 
 inquiries had covered. It has already been shown that the products of agriculture in the U. States which 
 are exported consist almost entirely of products of the Western and Northwestern, and of the Southern 
 States, and that- the agriculturists of the Atlantic and seaboard States depend almost entirely upon mar- 
 kets created by domestic industries and occupations. These facts, in connection with those just stated in 
 relation to the magnitude of the manufactures of New York and Brooklyn, and of the commerce carried 
 on in these cities in the manufactures of the surrounding country, indicate to how much greater an ex- 
 tent the agricultural interests of the territory within a radius of 200 miles of New York city depend upon 
 home industries and home commerce than upon foreign commerce. The importance of manufactures to 
 the internal commerce of the country is also illustrated in the commercial and industrial experiences of a 
 thousand towns and cities throughout the country. Twenty-five years ago, the cities of Mobile, New 
 Orleans, and Galveston largely dominated the trade of the States situated south of the Ohio river and 
 south of the State of Missouri, but now that trade is mainly controlled by the cities of Cincinnati, Louis- 
 ville, and St. Louis, and consists largely in the sale of products of the industries of those cities. It was 
 estimated by the superiutendent of the Cincinnati Chamber of Commerce that the total value of the sales 
 of merchandise at that city amounted in 1881 to $254,000,000, of which the value of goods manufactured 
 in Cincinnati, and there sold, amounted to $150,000,000, and the value of goods purchased abroad and sold 
 in the course of a purely distributive commerce amounted to $104,000,000. The people of the Western 
 towns and cities generally have, within the last fifteen years, been brought to realize the fact that the 
 trade in the products of their own industries is much more reliable and profitable than their jobbing' oi 
 wholesale trade. Besides, they have seen that manufactures retain in a city a most desirable class. The 
 social advantages afforded by manufacturing industries, whereby the various members of families can be 
 held together in a single community, is a consideration of very great importance. 
 
 The important relations sustained by manufactures to banking and the finance of commerce are clearly 
 understood by every banker and business man in the country. It is impossible to state the amount of 
 bank capital held by manufacturers, or the proportion of bank credits which is based upon manufactured 
 articles. It is believed, however, that the total amount of such credits is greater thou the total amount of 
 credits based upon products of agriculture. From the foregoing statements it appears that manufactures, 
 and commerce, and agriculture, and transportation, and banking, and the other great business interests of 
 the country, take hold on each other in innumerable ways, and that, as elements of national prosperity, 
 they are one and inseparable. The depression of one or more of the great manufacturing or mechanical 
 industries of the country would injuriously affect all other business interests, and might result in serious 
 disaster. 
 
 In 1880, according to the census of that year, the manufactures of the U. States were as follows :

 Adirondack Mountains, the principal 
 group of mountains in N. Y. They extend from the 
 N. E. corner of the State toward its center, and form 
 a part of the Appalachian chain. They are situated 
 in Clinton, Essex, Franklin aud Hamilton cos. Mt. 
 Marcy, in Essex co., 5,402 ft. above sea level, is the 
 highest mountain in the State The summits next 
 in altitude are St. Anthony, McMartin, Seward. Dix's 
 Peak, Mt. Emmons aud Mt. Mclntyre. The Adiron- 
 dacks.are formed of grauitic and other primary rocks, 
 aud present., in general, a conical form with an abrupt 
 slope. Some of the ridges of this group have re- 
 ceived local names, as the Kayaderosseras on the W. 
 of Lake George ; the Highlands of Black K. ; the 
 Hasseucleaver Mountains of Oneida co., and the cen- 
 tral chain has been called McComb's Mountains. 
 The scenery of this region is wild aud grand almost 
 beyond description. Numerous beautiful lakes and 
 ponds diversify the scenery, and give to it a charm 
 which is not surpassed iu the U. S. Raquette Lake, 
 the highest of these sheets of water, is 1731 ft. above 
 the sea level. Fish abound in these lakes and the 
 streams which flow into them ; and game is still to 
 be found. Among t he rivers which have their source 
 among these mountains are the Saranae and the Aus- 
 able, which empty into Lake Champlain ; and the 
 Boreas, the Cedar and the Hudson, which unite into 
 the Hudson in the S. W. corner of Essex eo. Among 
 the best known lakes are Lake George, Schroon Lake 
 and Loug Lake. Fine forests of pine, maple, beech, 
 birch, ash and other woods cover these mountains ; 
 along the streams cedar, hemlock, tamarack and 
 hackmatack form almost impenetrable swamps. The 
 most valuable prod, is the white pine, which is cut 
 in immense quantities. The Adirondack region is 
 visited yearly by a large number of sportsmen and 
 tourists. It is easily reached by several routes, one 
 of the best from N. Y. being via Lake Champlain.

 Mobile R. It is navigable at all seasons for vessels 
 requiring 6 ft. of water, from the junction, 60 m. to 
 Claiborne. From Claiborne, 150 m. to the mouth of 
 the Cahawba, the river has 4or5ft. of water. From 
 , the mouth of the Cahawba to the junction of the 
 Coosa and Tallapoosa, its head branches, the river af- 
 fords, in all places, 3 ft.of water. The river is subject 
 to great changes by rising and falling ; it is very tor- 
 tuous throughout its course, and on its banks are 
 some of thelargest cotton plantations in the South, 
 and much valuable timber. 
 
 — a southern State, the 21st in the order of its ad- 
 mission, the 17th in surface and also in population, 
 lies between lat. 30° 13' and 35° N., and between 85° 
 and 88° 35' W. It is bounded S. by Florida and the 
 Gulf of Mexico, W. by the Mississippi, N. by Ten- 
 nessee, and E. by Georgia. Its length is 330 m., aver- 
 age breadth 154, and area, 51,540" sq. m. The Blue 
 
 Ridge of the Alleghanies stretches into the northern 
 portion of the State, but the elevation is nowhere 
 great. From this broken but beautiful region, there 
 is a gradual declination towards the S., the surface 
 expanding into broad prairies with gentle swells, till 
 the vicinity of Mobile Bay, where it becomes very 
 flat, and raised but little above the sea-level. The 
 State has only abt. 60 in. of seacoast, a large por- 
 tion of the S. boundary being cut off from the sea- 
 coast by an intervening strip of Florida. The prin- 
 cipal rivers are the Mobile, Tombigbee, Alabama, 
 Coosa, Black Warrior, Perdido, and Chattahoochee. 
 Mobile Bay, the largest aud finest on the Gulf re- 
 ceives the greater part of the navigable waters of 
 the State through the Mobile R. and its affluents. 
 The Perdido R. separates Florida from Alabama. 
 The Tennessee comes iu at the N.E. comer of the 
 State, and taking a circular sweep southward, goes 
 out at the N.W. corner, and empties into the Ohio 
 at Paducah, Ky. The Chattahoochee, a large rivet 
 rising iu Ga. and emptying into Appalachicola Bay, 
 forms the E. boundary of the State for more than 
 100 m. The climate of Alabama is semi-tropical. 
 The temperature ranges from 82° to 18° Fahr. in 
 winter, and in summer from 105° to 60° ; the mean 
 temperature for the year being a little over 60°. The 
 uplands are healthy, but the inhabitants of the low- 
 lying lands are subject to intermittent, bilious, and 
 congestive fevers. . 
 
 Alabama is rich in minerals. The mineral region 
 occupies the N.E. corner of the State, extending S.W. 
 abt. 160 in., aud has an average width of abt. 80 m. 
 White marble of iemarkable brilliancy, soapstone, 
 flagstones, graphite or plumbago, potter's porcelain, 
 and fire-clays, and grauite of i:ood quality are ob- 
 tained here. Gold was discovered in Randolph co. 
 iu 1836, aud mined so successfully that 8213,750.66 
 of it had been coined at the U. States mint and its 
 branches to June 30, 1872, and the greater part 
 previous to 1859. Copper is also found, but not in 
 ores sufficiently rich to make its miuing profitable. 
 The most valuable portion of the mineral wealth 
 of Alabama, however, consists in her mines of coal 
 and her abundant iron ores. The coal-fields contaiu 
 seams of bituminous coal from one to eight ft. thick, 
 of several varieties, some of them excellent for 
 smelting iron ores. In close proximity to the latter 
 are extensive beds of iron ore ; the Red Mountain 
 extends across the State for more than 100 m., hav- 
 ing in its whole course a stratum of solid red iron 
 ore from two to eight ft. thick. Very extensive beds 
 of the brown hematite iron ore of the best quality 
 are found in Bibb, Shelby, Jefferson, Talladega, St. 
 Clair, and Claiborne cos. The iron manufactured 
 from these ores is of excellent quality. The 6 cos. 
 in which coal is mined nroduced, in 1880, 323,972 
 tons valued $476,911. The census of 1880 shows the 
 State of Alabama ranking 7th in the production of 
 iron ore, with 17 mining establishments scattered in 
 10 cos., having an aggregate capital of §536,442 aud 
 employing 738 bands. The total production during 
 census year was 191,676 tons, valued $201, SOS. There 
 were 14 blast-furnaces, rolling-mills and steel works, 
 having an aggregate capital of 63,309,196 and em- 
 ploying 1,626 hands, to whom $571,713 wages were 
 paid during the census year; value of all materials 
 used, $631,707; of iron and steel production, $990,- 
 850. — Alabama combines the vegetable products oi 
 the temperate and semi-tropical regions. In the N. 
 the white, red, cup, pin, and post oak, the hickory, 
 chesnut, poplar, cedar, elm, mulberry, and pine, are 
 the principal forest trees. Below latitude 33° the 
 trees are festooned with the long Spanish moss, and 
 the forests begin to assume a more semi-tropical 
 character. In this region, the deciduous trees very 
 generally give place to the live-oak, the cypress, the 
 loblolly, the yellow piue, the magnolia, aud other

 forest trees of the Gulf region, while the apples, 
 pears, plums, aud hardy peaches are partially re- 
 placed by the fig, the pomegranate, the olive, the 
 apricot, the scuppernong grape, aud the orauge. 
 The N. part of the State is best adapted to the cul- 
 ture of the grasses, the cereals, aud maize, though 
 in the more fertile valleys considerable cotton is 
 raised. The central and most of tlie S. portion is ad- 
 mirably adapted to cotton. Large quantities of 
 maize are also grown in the central counties. In the 
 S.W. the sugar crop is usually successful, and rice 
 is grown on the wet and low lands. The chief agri- 
 cultural productions in 1880 were 22,679,353 lbs. of 
 corn, 1,402,218 of wheat, 32.906 of rye, 2,926,336 of 
 oats, 370,510 of potatoes, 34,900 tons of hay, 94 hhds. 
 of sugar, 2.348 gals, of molasses, and 699,654 bales 
 of cotton. There were 113,950 horses, 121,081 mules 
 and asses ; 75,534 working' oxen ; 271,443 milch cows; 
 404,213 other cattle; 347,538 sheep, and 1,252,462 
 swine. — There are still great numbers of deer in the N. 
 cos., and wild turkeys are abundant. Wild pigeons, 
 partridges, rabbits, gray squirrels, and other game 
 are plentiful, while oppossums, raccoons, wildcats, 
 wolves (the paririe wolf), foxes, aud bears are oc- 
 casionally met with. Lizards and snakes abound in 
 the swampy regions, and the moccasin and milk 
 snake are particularly venomous. In some of the 
 streams and bayous the alligator is found, though 
 less abundant than in Louisiana. — According to the 
 census of 1880 the cotton manufacture aggregated 
 1,060 looms and 55,072 spindles ; number of bales of 
 cottou used, 14,887; number of operatives employed, 
 1,600. There were in the State 2,070 manufacturing 
 establishments, having an aggregate capital of $9,668, 
 008, aud employing 10,019 hands ; total amount of 
 wages paid, $3,500,504 ; value of materials, $8,545,520 ; 
 value of products, $13,565,504. The foreign com- 
 merce all center 0 at Mobile. — In 1882 Alabama had 
 1,804 m. of railroad in operation, divided into 26 
 lines; coc-t of roads and equipments, $84,199,205. — 
 In 1882 there were 4,572 common schools, of which 
 2,981 were white and 1,591 colored schools. The to- 
 tal number of children within the school ages w as 
 388,003, of which 217,590 were whites, and 170,413 
 were colored. The total number of children enroll- 
 ed was 176,289, of which 107,338 whites, and 68,951 
 colored. The total revenue of the school depart- 
 ment was $307,479.04. The University of Alabama, 
 founded iu 1831, is situated at Tuscaloosa, and is 
 under the control of the State board of education. 
 There are besides 4 collegiate institutes, viz.: South- 
 ern University, at Greensborough ; Howard College, 
 at Marion ; Spring Hill College, at Mobile; and Lin- 
 coln University, at Marion. The Alabama Agricul- 
 tural and Mechanical College, organized in 1872, had 
 279 students in 1882. — Among the public institutions 
 in the State are the penitentiary at Wetumpka ; the 
 insane hospital at Tuscaloosa ; the asylum for deaf, 
 dumb, and blind, and the freedman's hospital at Tal- 
 ladega, and the asylum forthe blind, at Mobile. — The 
 leading religious denominations are Methodists and 
 Baptists. — The assessed value of real and personal 
 property in 1882 was $152,920,115 ; amount of taxes 
 (at the rate of 6J mills) $1,035,915.05. The total re- 
 ceipts into the State treasury in 1882 were $1,012,- 
 547.01 : total disbursements, $918,588.61. The total 
 State debt, in 1882, was $9,407,800, on which the in- 
 terest charge was $343,929. — The present constitu- 
 tion was adopted in 1868. The Governor, Lieuten- 
 ant-Governor, Secretary of State, Treasurer and At- 
 torney-General are chosen for two years by the elec- 
 tors of the State. The Auditor is chosen for one 
 year. The elections take place on the Tuesday after 
 the first Monday in November. The House of Rep- 
 resentatives must not exceed 100 members ; the Sen- 
 ate must be not less than one-fourth and not more 
 than one-third of the number of representatives. 
 
 The State sends 2 senators and 8 representatives to 
 Congress ; it has 10 electoral votes. The judicial 
 power is vested in a Supreme Court of 3 justices, 
 with appellate jurisdiction only ; 5courtsof chance- 
 ry and 12 circuit courts, each of which is held by 
 one judge ; a probate court for each county ; aud 
 city courts for Mobile, Montgomery, Selma and 
 Huntsville. The judges of the several courts are 
 elected by the people for a term of 6 years. — Ala- 
 bama is divided into the following 66 cos.: Autauga,

 of a co. are called "beats" instead of "districts" 
 as in Ga. and the neighboring States. The cities are 
 Mobile, the first in size and commercial importance, 
 Montgomery, the cap., Selma, Huntsville, Eufaula, 
 Tal'adega, Tuscaloosa, (the former cap.), and Tus- 
 cumbia. — Alabama was first penetrated by the Span- 
 iards in quest of gold in 1541, under the celebrated 
 leader, De Sota. The present site of Mobile was first 
 occupied by the French in 1711, and ceded by them, 
 with the other possessions East of the Mississippi, 
 to the English, in 1763. Alabama was originally in- 
 cluded in Ga., but in 1802 became part of the terri- 
 tory of Miss. In 1819 it was admitted into the 
 Union as an independent member. It passed an 
 ordinance of secession, 11 Jan., 1861, and was re- 
 admitted to representation in Congress, 1868. Pop.

 Alas'ka, a territory consisting of a vast tract of 
 country forming the N.W. portion of N. America, 
 bounded N. by the Arctic Ocean, E. by B. America, S. 
 and W. by the Pacific Ocean. The name was formerly 
 confined to a long narrow peninsula stretching into 
 the Pacific, but has been extended to the whole ter- 
 ritory. Alaska comprises the whole of N. America 
 from 141° W. Ion. to Bearing Strait, and also num- 
 erous islands along the coast, notably Prince of Wales 
 Islands, King George III. Archipelago, the Kodiak 
 Islands, and the Aleutian Islands, which stretch sea- 
 ward from the extremity of the peninsula. From the 
 main portion of the territory a narrow strip, with a 
 breadth of about 50 m. extends S. E. along the Pa- 
 cific coast, and terminates at the confines of British 
 Columbia, in 54° 40' N. lat. From N. to S. the ex- 
 treme length of Alaska is about 1,100 m., and the 
 greatest breadth from E. to W. is 800 m. The area 
 of the whole territory is estimated at 514,700 sq. m. 
 The numerous islands, creeks and inlets of Alaska 
 lengthen out its coast-line to 7,860 m., an extent 
 greater than that of the E. coast-line of the U. States. 
 Beginning at the S. E., the chief creeks and bays are 
 Cook's Inlet, Bristol Bay, Norton Sound and Kotze- 
 bue Sound ; while, following the same order, the 
 principal headlands, in addition to the extremity of 
 the peninsula, are Cape Newenham and Cape Ro- 
 manzoff in the Pacific, Cape Prince of Wales in Behr- 
 ing Strait, and Cape Lisburne, Icy Cape and Point 
 Barrow in the Arctic Ocean. Point Barrow is in lat. 
 71° 23' N. and is the extreme northern point of the 
 country. The exploration of the N. coast was chiefly 
 the work of the British navigators, Cook, Beechy and 
 Franklin, and of the officers of the Hudson Bay Com- 
 
 pany. The principal river of Alaska is the Tukon or 
 Kw'ichpak, which rises in British America, and, re- 
 ceiving the Porcupine R. at Fort Yukon, flows W. 
 across the territory and falls into the Pacific Ocean 
 to the S. of Norton Sound. At a distance of 600 m. 
 from the sea this magnificent river has a width of more 
 than a mile. Its tributaries would, in Europe, be 
 reckoned large rivers, and its volume is so great that 
 10 m. out from its principal mouth the water is fresh. 
 Among the other rivers are the Copper R., the Sus- 
 chitna, the Nuschagak and the Kuskokwim, falling 
 into the Pacific, and the Colville, flowing N. into the 
 Arctic Ocean. A great mountain range extends' from 
 British Columbia, in a N. W. direction, along the 
 coast of Alaska, the summit being covered with 
 snow aud glaciers. Mount St. Elias, an active vol- 
 cano, in lat. 60° 18' N., Ion. 140° 30' W., rises to the 
 height of 14,970 ft. above the sea. The mountain 
 chain runs out along the peninsula which has given 
 its name to the country, aud at the W. extremity 
 there are several volcanic cones of great elevation ; 
 while in the Island of Uminak, separated from the 
 mainland by only a narrow strait, there are enormous 
 volcanoes, one rising to more than 8,000 ft. in height. 
 In the interior aud to the N. the country is also 
 mountainous, with great intervening plains. The 
 climate of the S. W. coast is tolerably mild, consid- 
 ering its high latitude. The great warm current of 
 the Pacific, sweeping in a N. E. circuit from the East 
 India Islands, aud corresponding very much in char- 
 acter and effects to the Gulf Stream of the Atlantic, 
 washes its shores ; and while it modifies the temper- 
 ature, also causes an excessive rainfall. At Sitka 
 the mean temperature is 42°. 9, and the average rain- 
 fall about 80 in. Alaska will never have any great 
 agricultural value. From the great amount of rain 
 and the want of heat, cereals grow, but will not 
 ripen, and vegetables do not thrive. Native grasses 
 aud berries grow plentifully, but the chief wealth of 
 the country is in its vast forests, iu the furs of its 
 wild animals, and in the fish with which its rivers and 
 seas abound. The forests, rising from the coast and 
 covering the mts. to a height of 2,000 ft., consist of 
 a very durable yellow cedar, spruce, larch aud fir of 
 great size, and also cynress aud hemlock. The wild 
 animals include the elk, the deer and various species 
 of bear, and also many fur-bearing animals, such as 
 the fox and wolf, the beaver, ermine, martin, otto 
 and squirrel. Near the coast and islands there are 
 innumerable fur-bearing seals, which are caught in 
 great numbers by the settlers ; but from the rigor of 
 the climate and the arduous nature of the work, the 
 trapping of the animals of the interior is left to the 
 Indians. The salmon abound in the rivers, and there 
 are great banks along the shores, the favorite haunt 
 of cod and other fish. Abt. 80 whalers prosecute 
 their fishery off the coast of Alaska. Coal and iron 
 are the most important minerals, but the value of the 
 deposit remains to be ascertained. The pop. is very 
 limited, consisting of S,000 whites and 15,000 Indians, 
 with some Esquimaux on the N. coast. The Indians 
 are rapidly decreasing in number, and are described 
 as treacherous and discontented. Sitka, formerly 
 New Archangel, in the island of Sitka, lat. 57° 3' N., 
 Ion. 135° 18' W., was the seat of the Russian Govern- 
 ment, and is the headquarters of the U. States au- 
 thorities. It contains abt. 1,500 inhabitants, is the 
 residence of a Greek bishop, and has fortifications, 
 magazines and a magnetic observatory. Of the other 
 settlements, Fort Nicholas, ou Cook's Inlet, aud Fort 
 St. Michael, on Norton Sound, are the most import- 
 ant. The admirable harbors on this coast and the 
 great navigable river Yukon, afford facilities for the 
 formation of new settlements and the increase of 
 trade. The N. W. coast of this part of America was 
 discovered and explored by a Russian expedition un- 
 der Behriug iu 1741 ; aud at subsequent periods set- 
 
ALB

 tlements were made by the Russians at various places, 
 chiefly for the prosecutiou of the fur trade. In 1799 
 the territory was granted to a Russo-American fur 
 company by the Emperor Paul VIII., and in 1839 the 
 charter of the company was renewed. New Arch- 
 angel, in the island of Sitka, was the principal set- 
 tlement, but the company had about 40 stations. 
 They exported annually 25,000 skins of the seal, sea- 
 otter, beaver, &c, besides about 20,000 sea-horse 
 teeth. The privileges of the company expired in 
 18(53 ; and in 1867 the whole Russian possessions in 
 America were ceded to the U. States for a money 
 payment of 87,200,00. The treaty was signed on 30th 
 March, and ratified on 20th June, 1867 ; and on the 
 9th October following, the possession of the country 
 was formally made over to a military force of the U. 
 States at New Archangel. It still remains in the 
 military keeping of the U. States, no steps having 
 been taken to organize a territorial government. It 
 has, however, been constituted a revenue district, 
 with New Archangel, or Sitka, as the port of entry. 
 Since Alaska was ceded to the U. States considerable 
 information has been collected as to the resources of 
 the less sterile parts of the country ; but the central 
 and N. parts of this region are only known as the in- 
 hospitable home of some wandering tribes of Indians 
 and Esquimaux. Sec Aleutian Islands ; see also

 good water power. The land near the Hudson and 
 some of the other streams is fertile ; but in the N. and 
 W., where the surface is mountainous, it is less pro- 
 ductive, and in some places sterile. The E. part is 
 covered with immense beds of clay, sand and gravel, 
 the sand in some places being 40 ft. deep. Iron, 
 hydraulic limestone, marl and gypsum are found, 
 though they are not abundant. The chief prod, in 
 1880 were 23,128 bush, of wheat, 296,145 of corn, 
 787,529 of oats, 158,600 of rye, 211,225 of buckwheat,

 — a city, cap. of the above co., and of the State of 
 New York, on the W. bank of the Hudson R., at 
 the head of sloop navigation and near the head of 
 tide water, 145 m. N. of New York city, and 164 m. 
 (or 201 by rail) W. of Boston, in lat. 42 c 39' 49" N., 
 Ion. 73° 44' 33" W. It has a commanding situation, 
 and when viewed from the water appears to great 
 advantage. On the margin of the river is a flat, allu- 
 vial tract, extending from 15 to 100 yards back, from 
 which the ground rises abruptly, and in the course 
 of a mile attains an elevation of 220 feet, beyond 
 which it is level. The view from the highest parts of 
 the city is extensive and picturesque. To the N. are 
 seen the city of Troy and the adjacent villages, and 
 in the distance the hills of Vermont; to the E. the 
 beautiful country lying on the opposite side of the 
 Hudson ; and to the S. the Helderbergs and Catskill 
 Mountains. The principal streets are Broadway and 
 Pearl street, which run parallel with the river, and 
 State street, 100 feet wide, which ascends the hill to 
 the Capitol, and thence narrower to the limits of the 
 city proper westward. Washington avenue runs 
 parallel to it, commencing from in front of the City 
 Hall, and continues as the Schenectady turnpike. 
 Among the public buildings and institutions are the 
 new capital, a magnificent edifice in the Renaissance 
 style, and built of New England granite, at a cost of 
 above $10,000,000, the State Hall for State offices and 
 the City Hall for city offices, both of marble and front- 
 ing on small parks near the old Capitol ; the State 
 Museum of Natural History in the same building 
 with the collection of implements and productions 
 of the field of the State Agricultural Society ; the 
 State Library, containing, with the law department, 
 over 90,000 volumes ; the Bureau of Military Record, 
 containing memorials of past wars ; the Dudley Ob- 
 servatory, possessing the best astronomical instru- 
 ments and Scheutz's tabulating machine, and now 
 having also a physical observatory ; the Medical Col- 
 lege, which, with the Law School and the Observa- 
 tory, now has an organic connection with Union Col- 
 lege at Schenectaday, under the name of Union 
 University ; two public hospitals, and a State normal 
 school. The Albany Institute is a society first formed 
 in 1791 for the advancement of science, and publishes 
 its transactions. There is a public high school, one 
 academy for boys, and three for girls. In 1880 there 
 were 38,000 children of school age, of which 14,632 
 only were enrolled in, and 9,193 in average attendance 
 at the public schools. There are abt. 60 places of 
 worship ; the largest and most imposing church being 
 
ALB 
 
 59 
 
 ALE 
 
 the cathedral of the Immaculate Conception. There 
 is also a Young Men's Association, a Young Men's 
 Christian Association, and numerous other benevo- 
 lent and social associations. The penitentiary, sit- 
 uated ou the W. of the city, was opened in 1848, has 
 60 cells, and is conducted under the contract system 
 of labor, the men being employed in shoemaking, 
 and the women in chair-seating. For 30 years after 
 the Revolution, Albany was the seat of the entire 
 trade of the W. part of the State, the produce being 
 brought in by sleighs in winter; but the growth of 
 the city was not rapid, The first great impulse to 
 its commercial prosperity was given by the success- 
 ful trips of the Clermont, the first steamboat of Ful- 
 ton, in 1837, and the improvements in steam naviga- 
 tion which immediately followed. The steamboats 
 now upon the Hudson R. are among the largest that 
 navigate any inland waters. The Erie Canal, com- 
 pleted in 18:45, and the various lines of railroad con- 
 structed since that time, have each essentially added 
 to the growth and prosperity of the city. A sand 
 bar, abt. 3 m. below the city, frequently impedes the 
 passage of large vessels in dry seasons. There are 6 
 or 7 railroads leading from Albany ; the Hudson R. 
 a id the Harlem to New York city, the Boston aud 
 Albany to Boston ; the Rensselaer and Saratoga to 
 Vermont and Cauada ; the New York Central to 
 Buffalo ; and the Albany and Susquehanna to Bing- 
 hamton on the N. Y., L. E. & W. RR., besides steam 
 and horse railroads to Troy. The river is crossed by 
 tvvo railroad bridges, and a third is in way of con- 
 struction, incorporated for a third, over which teams 
 will also pass. The most prominent manuf. has 
 hitherto been stoves, including now hollow-ware, 
 averaging annually 82,500,000 in value. There are 9 
 shoe factories, 33 brewers and malsters, and several 
 manuf. of aniline colors, furniture, flour, biiek, oil- 
 cloth, paper collars, safes, pianos, jewelry, soap, cau- 
 dles, boilers, machinery, &c. The lumber market in 
 the value of its lumber is second to none, the quan- 
 tity received being valued at §13,000,000 a year. Its 
 cattle trade is of the greatest importance, being the 
 central market for New York city and New England, 
 and its stock traffic amounts to 820,000,000 a year. 
 Graiu and the products of the extensive local manu-

 original 13 colonies except Jamestown, Ya. It was 
 first settled by the Dutch in 1614 as a trading port. 
 Fort Orange, or Aurania, was erected here in 1623. 
 The village was successively called Beverwyck aud 
 Williainstadt. In 1664 it was called Albany, for the 
 duke of York and Albany, afterward James II. Till 
 the Revolution it was the center of a large Indian 
 trade. Here was held the first General Congress, to 
 make arrangements for the national defence ; and 
 here, upon the 4th of July, 1754, Franklin and 
 other patriots " signed the first plan of American 
 Union, and proclaimed to the colonies that they were 
 one people, fit to govern, and able to protect them- 
 selves." Albany became the State cap. in 1797. Its

 Aleutian Islands [from the Russian aleut, 
 a bold rock], a chain of small islands situated in the 
 Northern Pacific Ocean, and extending E. from the 
 peninsula of Kamtschatka, in Asiatic Russia, to the 
 promontory of Alaska, in North America. This 
 archipelago has been sometimes divided into three 
 groups, the islauds nearest Kamtschatka beiug prop- 
 erly called Aleutia, the central group lhe Amlreanov 
 or Andreanovian, and those nearest to the promon- 
 tory the Fox Islands. They are all included between 
 52° and 55° N. lat. and 172° E. and 163° W. Ion. The 
 whole of the islands are bare and mountaiuous, and 
 their coasts are rocky and surrounded by breakers, 
 by which the approach is rendered exceedingly dan- 
 gerous. The land rises immediately from the coasts 
 to steep bald mountains gradually ascending into 
 lofty ranges running from E. to \V. Springs take 
 their rise at the bottom of the mountains, and either 
 flow in broad and rapid streams into the neighboring 
 sea, or, collecting in the rocky vales and glens, form 
 ample lakes, which send off their superfluous waters 
 by natural canals into the adjacent bays. These 
 islands bear evident marks of volcanic formatiou, 
 and several of them have still active volcanoes, which 
 continually emit smoke and sometimes flames. The 
 most important group of the chain is that called the 
 Fox Islands, of which the largest are Unimak and 
 Ouualaska, both near the VV. extremity of Alaska. 
 The thin argillaceous soil of the Aleutian Islauds 
 produces little vegetation, and agriculture is almost 
 unknown. The climate is subject to sudden changes, 
 and is very unfavorable to any attempts at cultiva- 
 tion. Few trees grow on the islands, but there are 
 some stunted shrubs of birch, willow, and alder. 
 The principal occupations of the Aleutians are Ash- 
 ing and hunting, and the preparation of the imple- 
 ments necessary for both. Since the end of last 
 century the fur traders have had settlements here 
 for the capture of the seal and the sea-otter, which 
 are found in great numbers on the shores, and of the 
 Arctic fox, which roams over the islands. Fish are 
 abundant, and dogs and reindeer are common. The 
 pop. of the whole group is abt. 8,000, the natives be- 
 ing a kindred race to the inhabitants of Kamtschatka. 
 Until 1867 these islands belonged to Russia, but they 
 were included in the transfer to the U. S. of the 
 whole Russian possessions in America made in that 
 year. They now form part of the territory of Alaska. 
 From the position of the Aleutian Islauds, stretching 
 like a broken ridge from Asia to America, some eth- 
 nologists have supposed that by means of them 
 America was first peopled. See Alaska.

 Alleghany fBountaiiis, or Alleghanies, 
 a name sometimes used as synonymous with the Ap- 
 palachian system of mountains. In a more restricted 
 sense it is applied to the parallel ranges which trav- 
 erse Pennsylvania, Maryland and Virginia, and form 
 the most prominent features in the physical geogra- 
 phy of those States. The general direction of these 
 ridges is nearly N. E. and S. W., and their mean 
 height abt. 2,500 ft. Among their highest summits 
 are the Peaks of Otter, in Virginia, rising to 4,200 ft. 
 above the sea. These ridges are remarkable for the 
 parallelism of their direction and the uniformity of 
 their outline and altitude, and enclose several beau- 
 tiful and fertile valleys. The rocks of the Allegha- 
 nies are the Silurian and Devonian limestones and 
 sandstones, and the group of strata called the coal- 
 measures. See Appalachian Mountains.

 They are covered with fine timber, and their cliffs 
 have been worn into strange forms by the action of 
 the waves. The laud area is estimated at 200 sq. m. 
 Brown sandstone is quarried and exported from the 
 islands. La Pointe, on Madeline Island, is the cap. 
 of Ashland eo. This place was settled by the French 
 in 1680. These beautiful islands have several Jesuit 
 missions, one of which was established in 165S. 
 
 Appalaeli'ee ICay, Fla., a large open bay-

 deep, leadiug to the town of St. Mark's, which fur 
 uishes excellent anchorage ground. 
 
 Appalaeli'ee Indians, a once powerful 
 tribe of W. Florida. They were conquered and con- 
 verted to Christianity by Spanish missionaries, but 
 the oppression and cruelties of the colonial authori- 
 ties, together with the destructive invasions of Eng- 
 lish colonists and Indians from Carolina, greatly 
 diminished their numbers. Si>on after 1700 a part 
 removed to what is now Alabama, aud the tribe soon 
 ceased to exist. 
 
 Appalaeliee BSiver, 67a., has its source in 
 Gwinnett co., flows S.E. along the N.E. border of 
 Walton aud Morgan cos., aud empties into the Oco- 
 nee R. abt. 5 m. E. of Buckhead, after a course of 
 abt. 75 m. 
 
 Appalaelaian Mountains, the general 
 name given to a vast system of elevations, partly in 
 Canada, but mostly in the U. States, extending for 1,300 
 m. from Cape Gaspe, on the Gulf of St. Lawrence, 
 S.VV. to Alabama. The whole system may be con- 
 veniently divided into three great sections: the 
 Northern, from Cape Gaspe to New York: the Central, 
 from New York to the valley of the New R. ; and the 
 Southern, from the New R. onward. The first of 
 these includes the Adiroudaeks, the Green Mts., and 
 the White Mts., and the irregular elevations toward 
 the N.; the central contains a large portion of the 
 Blue Ridge, the Alleghauies proper, and a great 
 number of lesser ranges ; and the southern consists 
 of the prolongation of the Blue Ridge, the Black 
 Mts., the Smoky Mts., and the Unaka Mts. The whole 
 range, and especially the central portion, is remark- 
 able for the parallelism of the various ridges, the 
 uniform height of the summits in the same part of 
 the chain, the absence of a central axis of elevation, 
 and the presence, instead, of a central valley or axis 
 of depression. The typical arrangement of the sys- 
 tem — most distinctly visible in the ceutral division — 
 might be represented in diagram thus : first, a stretch 
 of country, gradually sloping, with slight undula- 
 tions and irregularities, upward from the Atlantic, 
 aud attaining a height of 300, 500, or 1,000 ft.: then, 
 a lofty ridge rising like a rampart, and succeeded by 
 other ridges separated from each other by longitudi- 
 nal valleys ; next, the great central valley or axis of 
 depression ; aud lastly, a new succession of ridges 
 breaking off into table-land with transverse valleys 
 and a gradual decrease of elevation. The Atlantic 
 slope varies in breadth from 50 m„ as in New Eng- 
 land, to 200 m., in the S., and in the neighborhood 
 of New York has almost altogether subsided. The 
 ceutral valley may be traced from Lake Cbamplain 
 in the N., along the course of the Hudson, down 
 through the Cumberland Valley, in Pennsylvania, 
 and the Great Valley of Virginia and Tennessee ; it 
 varies in breadth from 15 m. in the N. to 50 or 60 m. 
 in the S. The elevation of the valley rises toward 
 the S. in keeping with the elevation of the neighbor-

 ing ranges. None of the summits of the system 
 reach the region of perpetual snow, but a large 
 number of them attain a considerable altitude. In 
 the Adirondaeks the highest point, Mt. Tahawus or 
 Mt. Marcy, reaches 5,379 ft. In the White Mts., Mt. 
 Washington, in the main chain, has a height of 6,288 
 ft.; Mt. Adams, 5,794; Mt Madison, 5,365; Mt. Jef- 
 ferson, 5,714; Mt. Ulay, 5,553; Mt. Monroe, 5,384; 
 Lafayette, 5,290 ; and a great number of summits 
 attain a height of more than 4,000 ft. In the Green 
 Mts. the highest point, Mt. Mansfield, is 4,430 ft.; 
 Lincoln Mt., 4,078; Killiugton Peak, 4,221 ; Camel 
 Hump, 4,088 ; and a number of other heights up- 
 ward of 3,000 ft. In the central division the hypso- 
 metric surveys are imperfect, but the general eleva- 
 tion of the higher chains is from 1,000 to 2,500 ft. 
 As we approach the S., the complexity of the system 
 and the altitude of the individual nits, increase to- 
 gether, and the chains which have run parallel and 
 distinct begin, as it were, to gather and fold them- 
 selves iuto an irregular coil. The peaks of Otter, in 
 Virginia, are abt. 4,000 ft. high ; and in the Black 
 Mts., the. Black Dome (Cliugmann), which is the 
 culminating point of the whole system, attains the 
 height of 6,707 i;.; Balsam Cone (also known as 
 Guyot, from the hypsometrical explorer of the re- 
 gion) has 6,671 : Black Brother, 6,619 ; and Mt. Hall- 
 back (Sugarloaf), 6,403 ; besides a large number of 
 summits varying from 3,000 up to 6,000 ft. In the 
 Smoky Mts. we have Cliugmann's Dome, 6,660 ft. 
 high ; Guyot, in Tennessee, 6.636 ; Mt. Alexander, 
 6,447; Mt. Leconte, 6,612 ; Mt.' Curtis, 6,568; several 
 others upward of 6,000, and a great many of more 
 than 5,000. In the whole Appalachian system, Lake 
 Champlain is almost the only lake of any importance, 
 but a multitude of rivers, and some of them of con- 
 siderable size, find their sources in its recesses. The 
 watershed does not lie along any continuous axis, 
 but shifts its position several times along the line. 
 In the N. it is found in a stretch of country, called 
 the Height of Land, that lies between the White and 
 the Green Mts., and gives birth to the Connecticut 
 and a number of smaller streams ; next, it is formed 
 by the Adirondack Mts., which supply the source 
 of the Hudson R.; and further S. by the high pla- 
 teaus of Pennsylvania and New York, which give 
 origin to the Delaware and the Susquehanna, with 
 their numerous tributaries. These rivers, flowing S. 
 and E., have thus to cut their way through the suc- 
 cessive ridges of the whole Appalachian range. The 
 watershed is next situated in the Alleghanies proper, 
 which send a number of affluents to the Ohio on the 
 W., and give rise to the James R. on the E.; and 
 lastly, it runs along the terminal cluster or coil com- 
 posed of the Black, the Smoky, and the Unaka 
 Mts. Here a tributary of the Ohio, called the Red 
 R., a number of the affluents of the Tennessee, and 
 various less important streams, have their sources. 
 The Appalachian Mts. are a vast storehouse of min- 
 eral wealth. Magnetite, hematite, limonite and other 
 iron ores are found in great abundance. The first is 
 best exhibited in what is frequently called the 
 Champlain Iron District, where it is now largely 
 manufactured, and it also attains remarkable devel- 
 opment in various parts of New York and New 
 Jersey. The extensive deposits of this ore in Vir- 
 ginia, N. Carolina, and Georgia, have hitherto been 
 turned to comparatively little account. It is fre- 
 quently contaminated by phosphate of lime, sulphur 
 and titanium. Red hematite is found in New York, 
 Pennsylvania, Tennessee and Georgia, and is usu- 
 ally known as Clinton ore, from a place of that name 
 in Madison co., New York, while in Tennessee it is 
 called Dyestone ore. It is of great commercial im- 
 portance, though, on account of the amount of phos- 
 phorus which it contains, it is worthless for the 
 manufacture of steel. Limonite, or brown hematite, 
 
 which, from its fusible character, is usually worked 
 along with the more crystalline ores, occurs in a 
 series of beds all along the banks of the Appalachi- 
 ans, from Maine to Georgia. The earthy carbonate 
 of iron — "clay ironstone ore," "shell ore," "kidney 
 ore" — is found in most parts of the system in con- 
 nection with the 'arbouiferous strata, and has been 
 very largely manufactured. In the N. district alone 
 — that is, in the E. part of New York, in New Jersey, 
 and E. Pennsylvania — the number of furnaces in 1880 
 was 219, and the gross prod, of i ron for that year 4,458,- 
 828 tons, or abt. 62 per cent, of the entire prod, of the 
 LT. States. This abundance of ore would have been al- 
 most useless had it not been for the equally abundant 
 supplies of fuel ; and the coal measures are among 
 the most extensive in the world, the bituminous coal 
 alone covering an area of 56,000 sq. m., withuut 
 eouuting the unrivalled beds of anthracite in Penn- 
 sylvania and New York, which cover an area of be- 
 tween 400 and 500 sq. m. While the supply of gold, 
 silver, copper and lead is of comparatively no im- 
 portance, marble, limestone, fire-clay, gypsum and 
 salt are extremely abundant. Many of the ranges 
 are richly covered with forest, and yield large quan- 
 tities of valuable timber, consisting chiefly of sugar 
 maple, white birch, beech, and ash, in the N., and 
 oak, chenw-tree, white poplar, white and yellow 
 pine, toward the S. The dark foliage of the pines, 
 balsam firs, hemlock trees, and cedars, gives color 
 and name to many of the districts. Rhododendrons, 
 kalniias, azaleas, and other flowering shrubs, often 
 grow in almost impenetrable thickets, and in some 
 parts the botanist is at once delighted and bewildered 
 by the profusion and variety of the smaller plants. 
 Bears, panthers, wild cats and wolves haunt the 
 forests in large numbers. 
 
 Apj>ala,clii«'©'!a, Fla., a W. river formed by 
 the union of the Chattahoochee and Flint Rs., at the

 Arizona, a territory, bounded N. by Utah, E. 
 by New Mexico, S. by Mexico, and W. by California 
 and Nevada. According to the Act creating it a ter- 
 ritory in 1863, Arizona comprises all the lands of the 
 U. States formerly belonging to New Mexico, extend- 
 ing from W. Ion. 109° to the California line. Since 
 then, however, the N.W. corner has been ceded to 
 Nevada ; area, 112,920 The territory lies in the 
 basin of the Colorado R., which enters in it abt. 37° 
 N. lat.. and forms its western boundary southwards 
 from 36°. In the north there is an extensive but bar- 
 ren plateau, with an average elevation of 7,000 ft. 
 through which the Colorado cuts its way, and forms 
 one of the most remarkable gorges in the world, the 
 length being abt. 300 m., and the perpendicular 
 walls reaching heights of from 3,000 to 6,000 ft. 
 South of this plateau is the valley of the Colorado 
 Chiquito (Little Colorado, or Flax R.), which joins 
 the Colorado in 36° 15' lat. N., and 113° Ion. W., while 
 further S. the ground rises into another plateau, the 
 main portion of which is known as the Mosrollon Mts. 
 In this district the country is reported to be beauti- 
 ful and fertile, the mountains coven d with noble 
 pine trees, and the valleys ciothed with rich mez- 
 quite grass. Further S., again, is the basin of the 
 Gila, with its numerous tributaries, obliquely crossed 
 by detached prolongations of the Sierra Madre of 
 Mexico. The mountain ranges run parallel from the 
 N.W. to the S.E. The highest peaks are Mt, San Fran- 
 cisco, more than 12,000 ft. high, and Bill Williams 
 Mt. South of these are the Juniper Mts., a chain of 
 low, rolling hills. Eastward are the Black Hills, rug- 
 ged and steep, and a favorite stronghold of the hos- 
 tile Indians. The inhabitants of Arizona are mostly 
 Indians. Of these 4,300 Pinas and Maricopas occupy 
 a reservation of 64,000 acres on the Gila R.; 4,000 Pa- 
 pagoes, a wandering tribe in the S.E. part of the ter- 
 ritory, have no grounds allotted them ; 4,000 Mohaves 
 have 75,000 acres on the Colorado R.; 2,000 Yumas 
 live near the mouth of the Colorado, but belong to 
 the Mohawk reservation ; while 1,500 Hualapais and 
 8,000 or 12,0 :0 Yavapais and Apaches, without set- 
 
 tled habitations, live in a state of continual warfare 
 with their neighbors. Owing to the savage temper 
 of the Apaches the N. and N.E. section of the terri- 
 tory are not fully explored. The territory must for a 
 long time depend upon the development of its min- 
 ing advantages, and these are to be found in the 
 southern part, where, owing to sandy, arid wastes, 
 agriculture cannot nourish. The most valuable min- 
 ing district has the suggestive name of Tombstone, 
 but it is wonderfully rich in silver. Another famous 
 mining centre is in Pioneer district, the Silver King 
 mine being the best for its yield and facilities in 
 working of any in the territory. While the earth in 
 this region is loaded with silver, it should also be 
 remembered that at Clifton lies the biggest deposit 
 of pure, superior copper in any part of the world. 
 Its supply is believed to be almost without limit, and 
 it is ready for the markets of the world, only awaiting 
 the simplest handling. The Tip-Top mines in the 
 Bradshaw district are now known to be rich and very 
 profitable. Ross Browne, in 1868, attributed the want 
 of success in the mines to the comparative inaccessi- 
 bility of the territory, which was without seaports or 
 finished lines of overland travel ; also to trouble 
 made by Indians, lack of water for their working, 
 and the refactory character of the ores of the lodes 
 tlien opened. These conditions are fast being im- 
 proved. Besides the lodes of gold and silver on nearly 
 all the streams, iron, platinum, quick-silver, and coal 
 exist in different parts of the territorv. For the year 
 1882 the total yield of gold was §1,060,000 ; of silver 
 §7,300,000. — In the country bordering on the Santa 
 Cruz a large quantity of land can be made productive 
 without irrigation, but agriculture must be almost 
 profitless in the southern part for want of streams of 
 water. The grazing lands are about three-quarters of 
 the entire area of 55,000.000 acres, and of irrigable 
 lands there are abt. 1,000,000. The Colorado desert 
 lies below the bed of the river, and for 150 m. has a 
 soil of marl and shells, needing only moisture to in- 
 sure fertility. The vegetable productions are iron- 
 wood, mesquite, cotton-wood, sycamore, ash, oak, 
 willow, walnut, prickly pears, cactus, aloe, artemisia; 
 aud under cultivation, grapes, figs, oranges, lemons, 
 tomatoes, tobacco, Indian corn, and the other cereals. 
 Much of the land produces two crops in the year. The 
 chief prod, for the census year 1880 were 36,246 lbs. of 
 corn, 189,527 of wheat and 239,051 of barley. Live- 
 stock on farms in the same year consisted of 6,798 
 horses, 891 mules and asses, 982 working oxen, 9,156 
 milch cows, 34,842 other cattle, 76,524 sheep, and 
 3,819 swine. — The recent completion of a line of rail- 
 way from the Atlantic to the Pacific, via the Southern 
 route, places Arizona upon a great national highway 
 which passes entirely through its southern part and 
 brings it within four or five days' time of the city 
 of New York.— The territory is divided into 10 
 counties, viz. : Apache, Cochise, Gila, Graham, 
 Maricopa, Mohave, Pima, Pinal, Yavapai, and Yuma. 
 The principal towns or villages are Florence, Globe, 
 Phoenix, Prescott (the cap.), Tombstone, Tucson, 
 and Yuma. — The governor and other executive 
 officers and the judges of the Supreme Court, 
 are appointed by the President of the U. States. 
 The people elect members for the legislature and 
 a delegate to Congress. — Arizona is a part of the 
 territory obtained from Mexico by the " Gadsden 
 Purchase," in 1853, for ten millions of dollars, 
 and was organized as a territory, Feb. 24, 1S63. 
 Great losses were inflicted upon the early set- 
 tlers by the nomadic Apaches, whose depredations, 
 down to the present time, have seriously retarded 
 the development of the country. Pop. in 1870, 9,658; 
 in 1880, 40,440 (of whom 28,202 males, greatly exceed- 
 ing the females, 12,238 ; 24,391 natives and 16,049 
 foreigners — chiefly Mexicans ; 35,160 whites, 155 
 colored, 1,632 Chine; e, and 3,493 taxed Indians).

 Arkansas, a tribe of Indians, allied by lan- 
 guage to the Dakotas, formerly residing on the Ohio. 
 Like the northern Dakotas, they appear to have been 
 once divided into several bands or minor tribes. 
 Driven from their old haunts by the Illinois and other 
 Indians, they went southward and became the con- 
 stant and powerful allies of the French of Louisiana. 
 They number at present some 200, and live in the In- 
 dian Ter. They are now generally called Quapaw. 
 — a S. W. river, the next largest tributary of the Mis- 
 sissippi after the Missouri, rises in the Rocky Mts. W. 
 of the South Park, in lat. 29° N., Ion. 106° W., at an 
 elevation of 10,000 ft. above sea level. It flows E. 
 through Colorado to near the center of Kansas, and 
 thence generally S. E. through the Indian Ter. and 
 the State of Arkansas to its junction with the Mis- 
 sissippi at Napoleon, 255 m. (direct) above New Or- 
 leans. Its whole length, including its curves, is over 
 2.000 m. to its extreme source. In the summer it 
 pours a broad, deep stream from the mountains upon 
 the arid plains through which it passes, which so ab- 
 sorb its waters that in the dry season it can be 
 passed, many hundred m. below the mountains, with- 
 out reaching as high as the knees. The Great Cana- 
 dian Foik enters it on the S. side, and is its largest 
 tributary. It is so impregnated with salt in some 
 parts as to be unfit for drink. During the periodical 
 swell it is navigable nearly to the Rocky Mts., and at 
 other times for 600 m. above its entrance into the 
 Mississippi. The navigation is unobstructed by 
 rocks, shoals or rapids. The soil on its borders in 
 some of the lower parts is fertile ; in the upper parts 
 it is sterile: - For 30 or 40 m. from its mouth, which is 
 300 yds. wide, it passes through an inundated forest, 
 —a S.W. State, situated between lat. 33° and 36° 30' 
 N., and Ion. 89° 45', and 94° 40' VV.; area, 53,045 sq. 
 m. It is bounded N. by Missouri, E. by Tennessee 
 and Mississ : ppi, from which it is separated by the 
 Mississippi R., S. by Louisiana, and W. by the Indian 
 territory. It belongs to the great basin of the Mis- 
 sissippi, being watered by that river and by several 
 of its main tributaries, which are all more or less 
 navigable. Of these the principal are the St. Francis, 
 in the northeast; the White R. with its affluents, the 
 Cache, Little Red, and Black Rs. in the N.; and not- 
 ably the Arkansas, which, entering the State at Fort 
 Smith, traverses it in a S.E. direction until it joins 
 the Mississippi at Napoleon. The S. part of the State 
 is watered by the Washita in the E., and by a bend 
 of the Red R. in the W. The E. part of the State, 
 bordering on the Mississippi, is low and swampy, and 
 is annually overflowed. Westward the country grad- 
 ually attains a greater elevation, passing off into hills 
 and undulating prairies, which lead up to the Ozark 
 Mts., beyond which, again, an elevated plain 
 stretches towards the Rocky Mts. The Ozark Mts., 
 do not exceed 3,000 ft. in height, and the only other 
 great elevations are the Black Hills and the Washita 
 Hills. In the district N. of the Arkansas R., the three 
 leading geological formations are the " mill-stone 
 grit, with its associate shales and conglomerate ; the 
 subcarboniferous limestone and its associate chert, 
 shales, and sandstones; and the magnesian limestones, 
 and their associate sandstones, calciferous sandrocks 
 
 and chert, belonging to the lower Silurian period." 
 The mineral products are reported to be very con- 
 siderable, "including zinc, manganese, iron, lead, 
 and copper, marble, whet and hone stones, rock- 
 crystal, paints, nitre-earths, kaolin, granite, free- 
 stone, limestone, marls, greensand, marly limestones, 
 grindstones, and slate." The zinc ores are said to 
 compare very favorably with those of Silesia, while 
 the argentiferous galena produces a high average 
 percentage of silver. Of coal, anthracite and lignite, 
 there are abundant supplies. A great number of 
 mineral and thermal springs occur in various parts 
 of the State, the most remarkable and most fre- 
 quented groups lying to the S. of Arkansas in Hot 
 Springs co. The heat of several attains 146° or 148° 
 Fahr. Among what are called natural curiosities may 
 be mentioned the sandstone dam across Lee's Creek 
 in Crawford co., the Mammoth Spring in Fulton, 
 which is supposed to have underground connection 
 with Howel's Valley in Missouri, and is said to pour 
 forth its water "at the rate of 8,000 barrels per 
 minute," the Bee Rock in White co., and the crystal- 
 line productions of Magnet'Cove. — A very large por- 
 tion of eastern Arkansas is as yet covered with vir- 
 gin forests, in which are to be found vast quantities 
 of valuable timber, such as the oak, walnut, cypress, 
 ash and poplar; in the western portion, pine, oak, 
 walnut, cherry and cedar, besides an infinite variety 
 of other timber possessing local value. The eastern 
 or level portion of the State is well adapted to the 
 growth of cotton, corn and oats. Every variety of 
 vegetables common to this latitude is produced. Cot- 
 ton is the principal crop grown in this section, and 
 in quality of fibre, or in yield per acre in quantity, is 
 surpassed by none of the cotton-producing sections. 
 At the fairs at St. Louis and Memphis cotton pro- 
 duced here has ever carried off the premium. The 
 yield per acre is from 1£ bales to -J of a bale of 500 
 pounds of lint cotton. Corn is also successfully 
 grown in this section, yielding from 20 to 60 bushels 
 per acre. Oats yield from 20 to 50 bushels. In this 
 region the small fruits, such as the strawberry and 
 raspberry, as well as the peach, plum and early va- 
 rieties of apple, are successfully and profitably 
 grown, finding a market for the most part at St. 
 Louis. The Irish and sweet potatoes, as well as the 
 turnip, yield large returns. Portions of this section 
 of the country seem to be the home of the grape 
 from the infinite number, varieties and excellent 
 quality of many of those growing wild over the 
 whole face of the country. The western portion, 
 from its elevation as well as from the component 
 parts of its soil, is adapted to the growth of all the 
 cereals grown in this or even N. of this latitude. 
 Corn, wheat, oats, tobacco and the various culti- 
 vated grasses, such as timothy, red top, herds-grass 
 and clover, are successfully grown. The yield of 
 corn is from 25 to 75 bushels, wheat from 12 to 30 
 bushels, oats from 30 to 60 bushels peracre. Timothy 
 yields from 2 to 3 tons per acre. In this section the 
 apple, pear, plum and cherry, grow to perfection, 
 unsurpassed in form or flavor. This section of the 
 State in the beauty of its scenery, the purity of its 
 air, with its numberless cool, sparkling springs and 
 pellucid brooks, and salubrity of its climate, will 
 compare favorably with any part of the U. States. — 
 Wild game, consisting of bears, deer, turkeys, 
 ducks, prairie-chickens, and quail, is abundant and 
 the rivers, lakes, and the bayous are well stocked 
 with fish, among which are pickerel, black bass, 
 buffalo, and catfish, the latter sometimes weighing 
 150 pounds. In the bayous and lakes, and in the Red, 
 Ouachita, and Arkansas Rs., the alligator occa- 
 sionally makes its appearance, though less abun- 
 dant than in Louisiana and Texas, serpents and other 
 reptiles are plentiful in the lowlands, and the rattle- 
 I snake and moccasin are found in the hills. — The

 in 1880 the State had 146,333 horses, 87,082 mules 
 and asses, 25,444 working oxen, 249,407 milch cows, 
 433,392 other cattle, 246,737 sheep, aud 1,565,098 
 swiiie. There were in 1870, 49,359 farms, averaging 
 154 acres each ; and 94,433 in 1880, averaging 145 
 acres each. — This state has no direct foreign com- 
 merce, but large quantities of cotton, corn, hides, 
 wool, lumber, etc., are exported through New Or- 
 leans. But little attention has been given to manu- 
 facturing. The census of 1880 gives 1,202 establish- 
 ments, with an aggregate capital of §2,953,130 ; 
 hands employed, 4,557 ; wages paid, $925,358 ; value 
 of materials, $4,392,080; value of products, $6,756,- 
 159. — Arkansas is still one of the most backward 
 States In educational facilities. The public school 
 appropriations amount to only $205,000 per annum, 
 being considerably less in proportion to the school 
 population than is spent by any other State. Con- 
 gress has granted over 1,000,000 acres of land to Ar- 
 kansas for school purposes. In some sections the 
 State fund is supplemented by liberal local levies. 
 Considering the facts that the public school system 
 was not established until 1868, and that in 1870 only 
 75 per cent, of the adult population could read and 
 write, substantial educational progress is being made. 
 The penitentiary, the institute for the blind and the 
 deaf mute institute are all located at Little Rock. 
 The State Industrial University, at Fayetteville, of- 
 fers 4 years' free instruction in its preparatory and 
 collegiate departments to 230 students appointed by 
 county judges and to 237 in its normal department. 
 The other institutes for superior instruction are, 
 Arkansas College at Batesville, Cam Hill College at 
 Boonsboro, Judson University at Judsonia, and St. 
 John's College at Little Rock. The last statistics at- 
 tainable report 1,181 librairies in the State, 1,371 
 church organizations, and 1,141 edifices. — In 1882 
 there was 1,041 m. of railroad in operation, and there 
 was in contemplation a great extension of railroad 
 facilities, which will contribute largely to the mate- 
 rial development of Arkansas. — The financial troubles 
 of Arkansas date from its first erection into a State 
 in 1836. A State bank was organized, and authorized 
 to issue $2,000,000 of bonds, and further credit was 
 obtained by means of a real estate bank, whose $1,- 
 500,000 of bonds were guaranteed by the State and se- 
 cured by the public lands. Both institutions suspended 
 payments in the second year. This was the commence- 
 ment of the State debt, the unskillful manage- 
 ment of which has ever since impeded the progress 
 of the State. The State debt matured in 1862. Since 
 the restoration of self-government in 1869 the weight 
 of public sentiment has favored the evasion of the 
 vast liabilities which it would still tax all the re- 
 sources of the State to discharge In full. The debt 
 contracted in waging war against the Federal 
 Government was declared void. The levee bonds 
 6 
 
 were decided to be unconstitutional by the Supreme 
 Court in 1878, aud all the railroad-aid bonds have 
 since been declared by the same court to have been il- 
 legally issued. The vote on the Fishback amendment, 
 which repudiates the bulk of the debt of Arkansas, 
 was about 61,000 for, to 41,000 against. It was declared 
 not carried, because it lacked 4,000 of a majority of 
 all the votes cast. The liabilities, considered not bind- 
 ing by so large a proportion of the citizens of the 
 State,consist of abt. $2,000,000 of levee bonds, $5,000,- 
 000 of railway-aid bonds.and other disputed liabilities, 
 aggregating abt. $4,000,000. There is an admitted 
 debt amounting to some $5,000,000, over half of which 
 is funded. The settlement of the debt question in a 
 way which shall be understood to be final, whether by 
 the acknowledgment of the entire debt, or the repu- 
 diation of a portion of it, would probably promote 
 the commercial progress of Arkansas. Although 
 its development has been slower than that of any 
 other State, the natural resources of Arkansas are 
 scarcely excelled. Nearly the entire area of the 
 State is cultivable land of high average quality. The 
 soil is seven to ten feet in depth, aud contains potash, 
 soda, magnesia, ferrous oxide, lime, and phosp oric 
 acid in favorable quantities. The greater part of the 
 10,000,000 acres donated by Congress as "swamp- 
 laud," need no reclamation whatever. Timber-land 
 in this State is easily brought under cultivation, as 
 stumps rot thoroughly in three years. The crops of 
 the prairie States and of the Gulf States thrive equally. 
 The yield of cotton is as large in proportion to the 
 labor applied as in any part of America. It is a surer 
 crop in Southern Arkansas, probably, than in any 
 other district. Sugar-cane, tobacco, and all the 
 cereals are cultivated with profit. The planting-sea- 
 son lasts from February till August, so that, if a 
 crop does not promise well, a second one can be 
 planted and harvested the same season. — Arkansas 
 is divided into 64 cos., viz. : Arkansas, Ashley, Bax- 
 ter, Benton, Boone, Bradley, Calhoun, Carroll, Chiot, 
 Clark, Clay, Columbia, Conway, Craighead, Craw- 
 ford, Crittenden, Cross, Dallas, Desha, Dorsey, Drew,

 ^evier, Sharp, Stone, Union, Van Buren, Washington, 
 White, Woodruff, Yell. There are no large cities. 
 Little Rock, the cap., is a place of considerable traf- 
 fic. The other chief towns are Camden, Fort Smith, 
 Helena, Hot Springs, Pine Bluff, and Princeton. — 
 The legislature, which meets biennially, consists of 
 a senate of 26 members, elected for 4 years, and a 
 house of representatives of S2 members, elected for 
 2 years. The governor receives a salary of $5,000. The 
 supreme court consists of a chief justice appointed 
 by the governor, and 4 judges elected by the people. 
 There are 10 circuit courts. Arkansas sends a repre- 
 sentatives to the Federal Congress, and has 7 electoral 
 votes. — This State was a part of the domain of 
 Louisiana purchased from France in 1803.lt was made 
 a separated territory in 1812, and was admitted as a 
 State in 1836. An ordinance of sessions was passed 
 May 6, 1861. A new constitution was ratified by the 
 people in. March, 1868, and on the 22d of June, the 
 administration of affairs was transferred to the civil 
 authorities. Pop. in 1820, 14,273; in 1830, 30,388; in

 above the sea, 101 m. N.W. Macon, 171 m. W. of 
 Augusta, and abt. 7 m. S.E. the Chattahoochee R. 
 It is laid out in the form of a circle, abt. 3 m. in di- 
 ameter, the Union passenger depot occupying the 
 center. Oglethorpe park, at the terminus of Mari- 
 etta street, contains tine diives, lakes, &c. The chief 
 public buildings are the State capitol, the first Meth- 
 odist church (South), and the Kimball House, one of 
 the largest hotels in the South. There are 40 chur- 
 ches of different denominations, the Methodists 
 being most largely represented. Laid out in 1845, 
 and incorporated in 1847, A. has since rapidly in- 
 creased, and is now the largest and most important 
 city in the State. It is the center of a large trade in 
 grain, cotton and tobacco, and has extensive railway 
 communications, the A. & W. P., A. & R., W. & A., 
 G., and M. & W. RRs. connecting here. The princi- 
 pal manuf. are a rolling mill, 3 iron foundries, 3 plan- 
 ing mills, several flour mills, a cotton factor}' with a 
 capacity of 20,000 spindles and 550 looms, two rail- 
 way shops, a brewery, several tobacco factories, a 
 manuf. of agricultural implements, several paper 
 mills, &c. The business of the city amounts to abt. 
 850,000,000 annually. The val. of property in 1S80 
 were 817,811,612. There are 8 banks with capital of 
 81,300,000 ; 3 daily, 11 wkly, 1 semi-monthly and 11 
 monthly papers and periodicals. A very good pub- 
 lic school system was organized in 1872. There 
 are 7 grammar schools (of which 3 for colored chil- 
 dren), and 2 high schools; other institutions of learn- 
 ing are the North Georgia female college, Atlanta 
 Medical College, Oglethorpe College, Atlanta Univer- 
 sity (colored), two business colleges, an English and 
 German select school, and an orphans' free school. 
 Oglethorpe College has a library of 5,000 volumes; the 
 young men's library possesses. 8,000 volumes, and 
 the State library contains 20,000 volumes. The city 
 is governed by a mayor and a board of 14 councilmeu 
 (2 from each ward). During the war A. was the cen- 
 ter of important military operations, and suffered 
 greatly in consequence. It was strongly fortified by 
 the Confederates, and defended, first, by Gen. Joseph 
 E. Johnston, and then by Gen. Hood, against the at- 
 tack of Gen. Sherman. Hood was compelled to 
 evacuate the city (Sept, 1, 1864), and Sherman after- 
 ward retired to Chattanooga — movements which oc- 
 casioned the destruction by fire of the greater part 
 of the buildings, both public and private. Here was 
 held in 1S81 an International Exposition, whose great 
 object was the exhibition of cotton and cotton ma- 
 chinery. It was successful beyond the most san- 
 guine expectation, and promises to be very beneficial 
 in its effects to the whole South. Besides showing 
 to farmers how to improve the cultivation and hand- 
 ling of the cotton crop, it has opened the eyes of the 
 Southern people to the possibilities of wealth that 
 lie around them by attempting to compete with the 
 North in manuf. their own fabrics from their own

 Baltimore, Md., a N. co., bounded N. by 
 Pennsylvania, and S. by the Patapsco ; area, 718 sq. 
 m. The surface is undulating, with wooded ridges 
 enclosing fertile valleys, and with bold hills often 
 rising to 800 feet above sea level. On the Great 
 and Little Gunpowder, the Patapsco, Gwynn's, and 
 Jones' Falls Rs., are large cotton, woolen, and car- 
 pet factories, furnaces, foundries, paper and flour 
 mills. Copper and iron are found in considerable 
 quantities, and iron is extensively mined. The total 
 prod, of iron and steel for the year 1880, was 69,944 
 tons. Near Texas and Cockeysville are extensive 
 quarries of excellent marble. The soil is moderately 
 rich. The chief agricultural prod, in 1880 were 393,- 
 402 bush, of wheat, 1,204,698 of com, 314,060 of oats, 
 49,821 of rye, 240,816 of potatoes, and 664,204 lbs. cf 
 butter. It contains the city of Baltimore. Cap., To w- 
 sontown. Val. of taxable prop. abt. $500,000,000. 
 Pop. 415,524 (of whom 65,880 for., and 64,264 colored). 
 — a city of the above Co., one of the most flourishing 
 cities in the U. States, and the 7th in point of Pop., 
 is pleasantly situated on the N. branch of Patapsco 
 R., 14 ro. from its entrance into Chesapeake Bay, 
 178 m. from the Atlantic, 40 m. N.E. Washington, 
 98 m. S. V/. Philadelphia, and 185 m. 8.W. New York. 
 It is built on slightly undulating ground, and ex- 
 tends abt. 4£ m. from E. to W., and 3J from N. to 
 8., covering an area of 10,000 acres. It is divided 
 into two nearly equal parts, known as East and 
 West Baltimore, by a small stream called Jones' 
 Falls, crossed by a number of bridges. Baltimore 
 contains abt. 200 churches, and has 3 universities, 
 several colleges, 122 public schools, a State normal 
 school, besides numerous private schools and acade- 
 mies, an academy of art and science, hospitals, a 
 museum, and many fine public buildings, the most 
 imposing of which is the new city hall, a fine speci- 
 men of the Renaissance style of architecture, and 
 one of the finest structures of the kind in the coun- 
 try. Another important public building is the Pea- 
 body Institute, founded and endowed by George 
 Peabody, and designed forthe diffusion of knowledge 
 among the masses. It contains a free library of 60,000 
 volumes, a lecture-hall, a conservatory of music, etc.. 
 Baltimore has several splendid monuments, which 
 have acquired for it the name of " the Monumental 
 City." The largest of these are Washington's Monu- 
 ment and the Battle Monument. Baltimore is well 
 supplied with water, and has a number of parks and 
 publie squares, chief of which is Druid Hill Park, a 
 tract of 700 acres possessing more natural beauties 
 than any other in the U. States. The manufactures 
 and commerce of Baltimore are very extensive and 
 flourishing. There is scarcely a branch of industry 
 that is not prosecuted to some extent in the city or 
 
 its vicinity, etc. In the vicinity of Baltimore is found 
 the finest brick-clay in the world, of which more 
 than 100,000,000 bricks are made annually. The 
 Abbott Iron Works, in the E. part of the city, have 
 the largest rolling-mills in the U. States. An industry 
 peculiar to Baltimore is the packing of oysters in air- 
 tight cans for shipment to all parts of the world. 
 Fruits and vegetables are also packed in the same 
 way, the entire trade consuming from twenty to thirty 
 million cans annually. This city is one of the greatest 
 flour-markets in the Union, and has a large export 
 trade in tobacco. There are 17 nat.and 8 private banks, 
 7 daily, 41 wkly, 52 semi-monthly, and 14 monthly pa- 
 pers,17fire and marine and 31ife insurance companies. 
 The harbor, which consists of three parts, is ex- 
 cellent. Its entrance, between Fort M'Henry and the 
 lazaretto, is abt. 600 yards wide, with 23 ft. of wa: 
 ter. This depth is continued with an increased width 
 for a mile and a quarter, to near Fell's Point. The 
 entrance to the second harbor is oppotite Fell's 
 Point, where the width is contracted to one-fourth 
 of a mile, with a depth of 16 ft. Above this entrance 
 it widens into an ellipse of a mile long, half a mile 
 broad, and 15 ft. deep. The third, or inner harbor, 
 has a depth of 14 ft., and penetrates to near the 
 center of the city. Vessels of the largest class can 
 lie at the wharves near Fell's Point, Locust Point, 
 and Canton, and those of 500 tons can come into the 
 inner harbor. The railroads centering at Baltimore 
 are the B.&O. , one of the grandest works of its kind in 
 the world ; the N.C.; theP.,W.&B.; the Washington 
 branch of the B.&O.: the W.M.; and the B.&P. Two 
 lines of foreign steamers connect the city with the 
 Old World, while her admirable system of railroads 
 place her in rapid communication with all parts of 
 the country, and enable her to successfully compete 
 with New York for the traffic of the W est and North- 
 west. Baltimore has also a considerable coasting 
 trade. It was first settled in 1662, but it was not till 
 1729 that its erection was authorized by the assembly 
 of Maryland. In 1752 it contained but 25 houses and 
 200 inhabitants. Pop. in 1800, 26.514 ; in 1810,35,538;

 Kenduskeag, 60 m. from the open sea, 136 m. N.E. 
 Portland by the M.C.RR., and 246 m. from Boston. 
 Lat. 44° 47 50" N.; Ion. 68° 47' \V. The city is also 
 connected with Portland, Boston, and other points 
 on the coast by 2 lines of steamers. The E.&N.A. 
 RR. affords the only all-rail route between Bangor 
 and St. John, New Brunswick, a distance of 200 m. 
 Bangor is situated on both sides of the Kenduskeag, 
 which is crossed by several bridges. The bridge 
 across the Penobscot, to the pleasant town of Brewer, 
 is 1,320 ft. in length. The harbor, directly below the 
 mouth of the Kanduskeag, is spacious, and is suf- 
 ficiently deep for vessels of a large class. The Pen- 
 obscot is navigable to the city for vessels of 300 or 
 40U tons, the tide alone rising to the height of 17 ft. 
 In the winter season, for abt. 4 months, the river 
 freezes 12 in. below, to Frankfort. The situation of 
 the city is pleasant and commanding, affording afine 
 view of the Penobscot R. and of the surrounding 
 country. Many of the streets are broad and well 
 shaded with elm trees. The public and private 
 buildiugs of the city are, many of them, neat and 
 elegant. It contains a handsome custom-house, 
 which cost $100,000, 14 churches of 9 denominations, 
 53 public schools, 5 nat. banks, 2 savings banks and 
 3 private bankers, 2 daily and 5 wkly papers, 4 iron 
 foundries. 4 furniture factories, &c. The Bangor 
 Library Association, founded in 1843, has 11,000 
 volumes. The Theological Seminary (Trinitarian 
 Congregational), founded in 1816, is beautifully situ- 
 ated in the most elevated part of the city ; it has a 
 library of 13,000 volumes. The trade is extensive, 
 particularly in lumber, of which it receives, next to 
 Chicago, a greater quantity than any other city in the 
 U. States. Abt. 2,000 vessels are annually employed, 
 during the season of navigation, in freighting lumber, 
 timber, &c, to various places, besides others engaged 
 in foreign commerce and in the fisheries. For the 
 year 1880 the imports amounted to $13,701, and the 
 exports to $103,814. The entrances from foreign 
 ports were 9 American vessels, of 2,286 tons, and 14 
 foreign, of 1,817 tons; clearances, 40 American, of 
 10,338 tons, and 31 foreign, of 5,228 tons. In the 
 coastwise trade and fisheries 167 vessels, with an 
 aggregate tonnage of 147,191, entered, and 6 vessels 
 of 996 tons cleared. The number of vessels regis- 
 tered, enrolled and licensed was 108, with an aggre- 
 gate tonnage of 20,129. Bangor was incorporated as 
 a town in 1791, and as a city in 1834. Pop. 10,857.

 Behriiig's Strait, the channel which sep- 
 arates the N/E. corner of Asia from the N.W. corner 
 of America, and which connects the North Pacific 
 with the Arctic Ocean. It is formed, in its narrowest 
 part, by two remarkable headlands, the extreme 
 points E. and W. of the continents to which they 
 belong; Cape Prince of Wales (Alaska), on the Amer- 
 ican coast, in lat. 65° 46' N., Ion. 168° 15' W. ; and 
 East cape, on the shore of Asia, in lat. 66° 6' N., Ion. 
 169° 38' VV. The distance between these points is abt. 
 36 m. ; but N. and S. of them, the land on both sides 
 rapidly recedes, and, on the N. especially, it trends so 
 sharply, that the name of Strait is not very applicable 
 to any part beyond the capes in that direction. It is 
 usual, however, to regard it as extending along Asia 
 from Tchukotskoi Noss, in 64° 13', to Serdre Kumen, 
 in 67° 3' N., which gives it a length of 400 m.; its 
 width between Tchukotskoi Noss (173° 24' W.) and 
 Cape Rodney, on the opposite shore of America. (166° 
 3' W.), is abt. 250 m. The land on both sides is con- 
 siderably indented. The water has an equal, but not 
 great depth. Shoal water appears to be principally 
 confined to the bays and inlets on the American side. 
 There are a few small islands scattered here and 
 there along the strait; and one of some size, St. 
 Lawrence, or Clerke's Island, lies at a short distance 
 S. from its entrance. The temperature is low ; by the 
 end of August the thermometer sinks to the freezing 
 point, and N. of the two capes there is always a store 
 of ice which the heat of summer is quite powerless 
 to disperse. It need scarcely be added, that the strait 
 is frozen over every winter. Fogs and hazy weather 
 are very common, almost, indeed, perpetual ; for, 
 though the summer sun is above the horizon for a 
 very considerable time, yet he seldom shines for more 
 than a few hours, and often is not seen for several 
 days in succession. Vitus Behring may be considered 
 as having settled in 1728, the fact of the existence of 
 this strait, and therefore it is most properly called by 
 his name ; but the complete discovery was reserved 
 for Cook, who, in 1788, surveyed the whole length of 
 both coasts, with a precision and accuracy which left 
 nothing for after voyagers to perform.

 been discovered in connection with quartz and meta- 
 morphic slate, and it has been conclusively proved 
 that this region abounds in iron, coal, lead, salt and 
 petroleum, besides its valuable pine and cedar tim-

 Itlack Jlountains, NIC. These mountains 
 which lie in Yancey and Buncombe cos., between the 
 main central ridge of the Alleghanies on the W., and 
 a portion of the Blue Ridge on the E., form the culmi- 
 nating range of the Appalachian system. They con- 
 tain 12 measured peaks, which are higher than Mt. 
 Washington in New Hampshire, and are so called 
 from the dark gro th of balsam firs and other ever- 
 greens which cover their summits. L T nlike the other 
 ridges of the Alleghanies, they lie for the most part 
 transverse to the general tread of the range, and give 
 this direction to the great valleys and rivers included 
 between them. They rise from a district of great ele- 
 vation, the height of the valley at Asheville, on the 
 French Broad R., being abt. 2,000 ft. above the sea, 
 and that of Toe R. at Burnsville, Yancey co., abt. 
 2,500 ft. From this plateau the drainage is toward the 
 Ohio in a N. direction by the branches of the Great 
 Kanawha, by those of the Holsten and the French 
 Broad toward the S.W., and by those of the Yadkin 
 and the Catawba into the Pedee and Santee, toward 
 the S.E. The principal peak, called Clin^mau's 
 peak, but known in N. Carolina as Mt. Mitchell, was, 
 in 1844, estimated by Dr. E. Mitchell to be 6,672 ft, 
 In 1856 Prof. Guyot determined the highest point, 
 which he then called the Black Dome, to be 6,760 
 ft. high. This is the highest point of the U. S. east 
 of the Rocky Mts.

 lSostom, Mass., the cap. of the State and of Suf- 
 folk co., the chief city of New England, the 6th in the 
 U. States in point of pop., and perhaps the 2d in com- 
 merce, wealth, banking capital and valuation, is situ- 
 ated at the W. extremity of Massachusetts Bay, on the 
 B.&A., the B.&M., the B.&P., the B.&L., the B..R.B. 
 &L.,the E., the F., the N.Y.&N.E., aud the O.C.RRs., 
 237 m.N.E.New York, and 202 m.E.by S.f rom Albany. 
 The city embraces Boston proper, East Boston, South 
 Boston, Roxbury, Dorchester, Charlestown, Brigh- 
 ton, aud West Roxbury, containing in all abt. 22,000 
 acres. Boston proper, or old Boston, occupies a 
 peninsula of some 700 acres, very uneven in surface, 
 whose Indian name was Shawmut, meaning "Sweet 
 Waters." It was called by the earlier settlers Tri- 
 mountain or Tremont. East Boston occupies the W. 
 portion of Noddle's or Maverick's Island. Here is 
 the deepest, water of the harbor, and here the ocean 
 steamers chiefly lie. South Boston extends abt. 2 m. 
 along the S side of the harbor, an arm of which sep- 
 arates it from Boston proper. The harbor is a spaci- 
 ous indentation of Massachusetts Bay, embracing 
 abt. 75 sq. m., including several arms. A wide sheet 
 of water at the mouth of Charles R. is commonly 
 known as Back Bay. There are more than 50 islands 
 or islets in the harbor, and it offers many picturesque 
 views. In the older portions of the city the streets 
 are irregular, and generally narrow, though some- 
 what has been done toward widening and straighten- 
 ing them since the fire. Those in the new section are 
 wide, well-paved, regularly laid out, and present a 
 handsome appearance. — The public buildings em- 
 brace those of the U. States Government, the State, 
 the county, and the city. The new post-office, com- 
 pleted in 1875 at a cost of over .§3, 000, 000, is said to 
 be the finest building in New England. The State 
 House, standing on the highest land in the city — what 
 remains of the old Trimountain summits, was built 
 in 1798, and has been recently greatly extended. This 
 edifice, with its golden dome, looks nobly down upon 
 the Common," so dear to the citizens of Boston. 
 This park is considered to date from 1634, and by 
 the city charter it is made public property forever. 
 It contains 48 acres, laid out in sloping fawns and 
 winding walks, aud shaded by magnificent trees. 
 Faneuil Hall, the " cradle of liberty," in Dock square, 
 has a historical reputation, because of the meetings 
 of the revolutionary patriots that were then held. 
 The Boston public library, in Boylston street, next 
 to the Library of Congress the largest in America, 
 contains 375,000 volumes, besides 150,000 pamphlets, 
 and the valuable Tosti collection of engravings. Bos- 
 ton possesses so many other public buildings and in- 
 stitutions, and its literary, learned, scientific, and 
 benevolent societies are so numerous, that even [a 
 mere enumeration of them cannot be attempted here. 
 The public schools of Boston have a high reputation, 
 
 and its educational and literary institutes are not 
 surpassed by any city in the U. States. Boston has 
 numerous lines of steamers to the principal eastern 
 ports of the U. States, Canada and England. The 
 harbor has 164 wharves, and will afford anchorage 
 for 500 vessels of the largest class. Seldom has the 
 foreign commerce of any port grown so rapidly as 
 has that of Boston within the past ten years. In 1870, 
 there were no transatlantic steamers sailing direct 
 from this port. In 1880, the number which sailed was 
 322. Boston early became distinguished for her spirit 
 of enterprise, rapidly attained to eminence in com- 
 merce after the revolution, aud has since always 
 maintained her rank among the commercial cities of 
 the Union. In 1882 Boston ranked next to New York 
 in extent of imports, and third in the value of ex- 
 ports — New York being first and New Orleans second. 
 The total value of imports was 869,716,147 ; of ex- 
 ports 161,614,526 ; 594 American vessels of 265,186 
 tons, aud 2,424 foreign vessels of 1,151,045 tons en- 
 tered from foreign ports ; and 573 American vessels 
 of 247,228 tons, and 2,278 vessels of 1,057,944 tons 
 cleared for foreign ports ; 872 vessels of 937,105 tons 
 entered in the coastwise trade, and 1,166 vessels of 
 1,055,551 tons cleared. There were belonging to the 
 port 733 sailing vessels of 237,122 tons, and 103 
 steamers of 29,843 tons ; 62 vessels of 3,194 tons 
 were employed in cod and mackerel fishing; 25 ves- 
 sels of 7,607 tons were built during the year. Not- 
 withstanding the rapid increase of her foreign com- 
 merce, it is in her domestic trade that Boston has 
 made of late the most important gains. In boots and 
 shoes, clothing, dry goods, wool, leather, lumber 
 and fish, she holds a leading position, and the traffic 
 in these branches was larger in 1882 than in any 
 previous year. The total sales of merchandise dur- 
 ing that year are estimated at 81,400,000,000. Acoord- 
 ing to the census of 1880 there were in Boston 3,521 
 manuf. establishments ; capital invested 842,750,134 ; 
 hands employed 113.626; wages paid 823,715,140; 
 value of stock used 877,586,607; value of products, 
 8123,366,137. In 18S3 Boston had 59 nat. banks, with 
 an aggregate cap. of 851,650,000, 65 banking houses, 
 and 16 saving banks ; there were 9 daily, 73 weekly, 
 70 monthly, and 4 quarterly papers aud periodicals. — 
 The government is vested on a mayor elected annu- 
 ally, a board of 13 aldermen, and a" common couucil 
 of 64 members, 4 for each ward. The fire department 
 is divided into 31 steam-engine companies, 11 hose 
 companies and 12 hook and ladder companies. Bos- 
 ton is liberally supplied with water from Lake Co- 
 chituate, 20 m. N. of the city. The total debt of the 
 city in 1880 amounted to 842,030,126, all funded. The 
 total income of Boston forthe last vear was 820,044,- 
 102; expenditures 818,327,880. The total valuation 
 was 8639.089,200. The tax levied, at the rate of 81.25 
 on 8100 was 89,466,896.— The first settler of Boston 
 proper was the Rev. John Blackstone, who sold his 
 claim to the peninsula for £30 sterling, and removed 
 to Rhode Island in 1635. On the 23d of February, 1S22, 
 the city was incorporated. It several times suffered 
 from disastrous conflagrations, which, by turn, were 
 described as "The Great Fire," but all these were 
 eclipsed in their devastation by the disaster of 
 November 9-10, 1872, in which hundreds of costly 
 warehouses were destroyed, involving a loss of over 
 880,000,000. It is an evidence of the energy and re- 
 sources of the citizens, that in a little more than two 
 years after the catastrophe, the whole "burnt dis- 
 trict," with widened and improved thoroughfares, 
 was covered with solid, substantial, and palatial 
 edifices combining all the safeguards, improvements, 
 and conveniences of modern skill. Pop. in 17C5 
 (1st colouial census) 15,520 ; in 1800, 24,937 ; in 1829, 
 43.298; in 1830, 61.392: ia 1840, 93,385 ; in 1850. 136.- 
 881 ; in 1860, 177,840 ; in 1S70, 250,526 ; in 1S80, 362,-

 mere crack between stupendous naked rocks, which 
 would match joints exactly if slid back to their old

 ISn-ookSyn, N. T., the third city in the U. States 
 in point of population, and the capital of Kings co., 
 is located on Long Island on the side of the East R. 
 opposite New York, and is popularly known as the 
 "City of Churches." While it is iu point of facta 
 part of the great metropolis, yet being divided from 
 it by a ship channel of importance, it remains a sep- 
 arate city, which in many of its social aspects at 
 least widely differs from New York. The city 
 
 now includes all the county towns of the western 
 part of the island, so that it now covers a larger area 
 than any other city iu the U. States. From Hunter's 
 Point to Bay Ridge it has a river frontage of nearly 
 9 m. The exterior line of the city measures 22 m., 
 embracing an area of 13,337 acres. It is divided into 
 Brooklyn proper and the Eastern District, consist- 
 ing of that part of the city still known as Williams- 
 burg, and the more northerly locality called Green- 
 point. The ground on which the city is built exhibits 
 considerable inequalities of surface, and thus in- 
 creases the picturesqueuess of its appearance, while 
 the practical disadvantages of such a site have been 
 overcome by skillful engineering. The streets, with 
 the exception of Fulton Street, the principal 
 thoroughfare, are generally straight, have a width 
 of from 60 to 100 ft., and cross each other at right 
 angles. — Chief among the public buildings are the 
 City Hall (an edifice of white marble dating from 
 184*5-6), the county court-house (erected in 1863), 
 the county jail (1837), the penitentiary, the State ar- 
 senal, and the city hospital. Besides the last-men- 
 tioned institution the benevolent establishments of 
 Brooklyn include the Long Island College Hospital, 
 St. Mary's and St. Peter's hospital, the female or- 
 phan asylum, the marine hospital, the Graham insti- 
 tute for the relief of aged women, and numerous 
 other charities. The churches number abt. 250, many 
 of them are beautiful buildings, but none claim 
 special notice except the New Roman Catholic Ca- 
 thedral, which is only rivaled by the corresponding 
 building in New York. Of literary and artistic insti- 
 tutions the most remarkable are the Mercantile Li- 
 brary, the Brooklyn Institute, the Long Island His- 
 torical Society, the Ai t Association, the Academy of 
 Design, the Academy of Music, and the Philharmonic 
 Society. There are 3 theatres, and an opera house, 
 which dates from 1862. The educational establish- 
 ments comprise the Packer Collegiate Institute for 
 female education, the Polytechnic Institute for boys, 
 the Adelphia Academy for both sexes, the Roman 
 Catholic College of St. John, upwards of fifty pub- 
 lic grammar and primary schools, and numerous pri- 
 vate institutions. — Though Brooklyn in some measure 
 serves as a suburb of residence to New York, and 
 many of its inhabitants carry on their business in 
 the larger city, its own industrial and commercial 
 activity is very great. It has flour-mills, sugar refm- 
 eries^lager-beer breweries, distilleries, tobacco fac- 
 tories, and chemical works ; and manufactures steel, 
 brass and copper wares, engines, machinery, and 
 printing presses. The grain trade is of enormous ex- 
 tent, the warehouses being capable of holding abt. 
 12,000,000 bushels ; and sugar, coffee, oil, hides, and 
 wool are also largely imported. Most of the river 
 frontage is lined with basins, wharves, and docks, 
 the most important being the Atlantic dock, the 
 Erie basin, the Brooklyn basin, the Wallabout basin, 
 and the U. States navy yard. This last is on the S. 
 shore of Wallabout Bay. This is the principal naval 
 station in the country. The grounds embrace a total 
 area of 144 acres. The yard proper comprises 45 acres, 
 inclosed by a high brick wall. Abt. 2,000 men are 
 employed here almost constantly. Among the most 
 interesting things in the yard is the immense dry 
 dock, which is one of the most remarkable structure's 
 of the kind in the world. It is built of granite, and 
 the main chamber is 236 ft. long by 35 ft. wide at the 
 
 bottom, and 307 ft. long by 98 ft. wide at the top, 
 with a depth of 36 ft. The enormous steam pumps 
 connected with the dock can empty it of water in 4J 
 hours. This dock cost considerably over $2,000,000"" 
 Just E. of the navy yard are extensive marine bar- 
 racks, and on the opposite side of Wallabout Bay is the 
 Marine Hospital, a handsome structure surrounded by 
 21 acres of ground, and having accommodations for 
 500 patients. The Atlantic Dock is fronting Governor's 
 Island near the S. extremity of the shore line. This 
 massive dock was built by a stock company. The basin 
 is a parallelogram in form, has an area of 40 acres, and 
 a depth of 25 ft. It will accommodate the largest ves- 
 sels ; 500 vessels can occupy it at one time, and 400 
 canal boats, besides many other vessels, have floated 
 upon it at once. The pier line on Buttermilk Chan- 
 nel is 3,000 ft. long, and the total wharfage is abt. 2 
 m. Surrounding the basin on all sides, excepting an 
 entrance 200 ft. wide for vessels, are substantial 
 brick and granite warehouses from 2 to 5 stories high, 
 and covering an area of 20 acres. Here are 9 steam 
 grain elevators, the largest capable of raising 3,000 
 bushels per hour. S. of the Atlantic Docks, on Gow- 
 anus Bay, are the Erie and Brooklyn basins, of sim- 
 ilar design and construction, and still farther S. 2 
 large dry docks. — Brooklyn is not a port of entry, it 
 is a part of the customs district of New York. The 
 city is supplied with water by an elaborate system of 
 reservoirs, of which the most distant is 19 m. away 
 in the vicinity of Hempstead. It has 4 nat. and 9 State 
 and other banks, 5 daily, 18 wkly and 13 monthly 
 papers, and several fire, marine and life insurance 
 companies. — Prospect Park, the great breathing spot 
 of Brooklyn, is finely situated on an elevated ridge in 
 the S. W. part of the city, and commands a magnificent 
 view of the cities of New York, and Brooklyn, the 
 inner and outer harbor,Long Island, the Jersey shores, 
 and the Atlantic. The location, and the natural ad- 
 vantages of the park, consisting of fine old shade 
 trees, wooded hills, and broad meadows, render it 
 more attractive than the New York Central Park. 
 The lake covers an area of 01 acres, all of which is in 
 winter allotted for skating. Washington Park, on the 
 site of ancient fortification, is also apleasant spot, and 
 there are various other open grounds throughout the 
 city. At the W. end is situated the well known Green- 
 wood cemetery, which contains abt. 520 acres of finely 
 varied ground, a good part of which is still adorned 
 with natural wood. — The traffic of the city is facili- 
 tated by tramway lines, and its connections with 
 New York, which has hitherto been dependent on 
 steam-boat ferries, has been recently rendered more 
 convenient by a stupendous iron-wire bridge, which 
 crosses the East R. near its W. extremity, and was 
 inaugurated with great solemnity on May 24, 1883. 
 The bridge may be said to begin at Chatham square 
 in New York and end at the corner of Sands and 
 Washington streets iu Brooklyn, but the bridge pro- 
 per, the single span which constitutes the marvel of 
 engineering skill, stretches 1,595-1 ft. from tower to 
 tower and 3,460 from anchorage to anchorage. At 
 the towers the bridge is 118 ft. above high water 
 mark and in the centre 135 ft. It is 85 ft. wide, and 
 costs over $15,000,000.— The first settlement of Brook- 
 lyn, or as it was formerly called Breuckelen, dates 
 from 1036, when a few Walloon colonists took up 
 their residence on the spot that still bears the name 
 of Wallabout (Waalbogt or Walloons' Bay). Eng- 
 lish and Dutch settlers followed ; and in 1667, a 
 charter was granted to the town by Governor 
 Richard Nicolfs. In 1698 the pop. only amounted to 
 509 persons, of whom fixty-five were slaves. In 1816 
 Brooklyn was incorporated as a village, and' in 1834 
 it became a chartered city. The pop. was in 1800, 
 3,298; in 1820, 7,175; in 1830. 15,292; in 1S40, 36,233; 
 in 1850, 96,850 ; in 1860 (including Williamsburg) 
 266,661 ; in 1870, 396,099, and in 1880, 536.639.

 Buffalo, N. T., a city, port of entry and the 
 cap. of Erie co., for many years called the "Queen 
 City of the Lakes," the 13th cityiutheU. States, and 
 the 3d in the State of New York in point of pop., is 
 situated at the extremity of Lake Erie, at the head 
 of Niagara R. and at the mouth of Buffalo R., abt. 
 293 m. N.W. New York City,— with a waterfront of 
 2X m. on the lake and of the same extent on 
 Niagara R. It has one of the finest harbors on the 
 lakes, formed by the Buffalo R., a small stream, 
 which is navigable for about 2 m. from its mouth. 
 The entrance is protected by a breakwater, which is 
 1,500 feet long, upon the S. side of the river; and 
 there is also another on the N. side, by which a ca- 
 pacious harbor is made. In 1869, the U. S. Govern- 
 ment began the construction of an outside harbor, 
 by building a breakwater, designed to be 4,000 feet 
 long, fronting the entrauce of the Buffalo R., and 
 nearly completed. The city commands a fine view 
 of the lake; the climate is pleasaut and healthful; 
 the streets, broad and generally lined with trees, are 
 well paved, lighted, and supplied with sewers. 
 There are many tine residences with attractive 
 grounds, and numerous parks, squares and public 
 places. The most prominent public buildings are 
 the city and county ball, a granite structure, in the 
 form of a double Roman cross, with a tower 245 feet 
 high, costing over $2,000,000; the U. States Custom 
 House and Post Office, the State Arsenal, and the 
 Erie County Penitentiary, a State asylum for the in- 
 sane in process of construction. The city contains 
 abt. 100 churches; it has an excellent system of public 
 schools, a State normal school, the Canisius College, 
 St. Joseph's College ; the Martin Luther College (the- 
 ological); St. Mary's Academy and Industrial School 
 for girls, and the Medical College of the University 
 of Buffalo. The charitable institutions of the city 
 are numerous. There are several libraries, the most 
 important being that of the Young Men's Associa- 
 tion, with about 30,000 volumes, and the Grosvenor 
 Free Library, which contains abt. 15,000 volumes. 
 Buffalo has an Academy of Music, a new opera 
 house, and several other theatres ; 2 nat. banks, 
 9 banking houses, 3 savings banks, and 3 private 
 bankers ; 9 daily, 18 weekly, 1 semi-weekly and 4 
 monthly papers. The city is divided into 13 wards, 
 and is governed by a mayor and 26 aldermen. It has 
 an efficient paid fire department and police, and is 
 well supplied with water from the Niasrara H. The 
 value of real and personal estate in 1882 was $92,- 
 266,315, viz.: real, $84,396,770, personal, $7,859,545. 
 The position of Buffalo on the great water and rail- 
 way channels of communication between the West 
 and the East, gives it a commercial importance sur- 
 passed by that of few other American cities. It is 
 the centre of an important system of railroads. Be- 
 sides many narrow-guage roads, the lines converging 
 here are the N.Y.C., the N.Y., L.E.&W., the B. N. 
 Y.&P., the D.,L.&W., the C.S., the G.S., the B.&S. 
 W., the N.C., the L.S.&M.O, and uhe A. V.RRs. Ow- 
 ing to the increase of railroad facilities, there has

 been a large decrease in the extent of the lake com- 
 merce since 1862, and more recently in that of the 
 canal. The canal tolls collected at Buffalo in 1881 
 aggregated only $325,674 as compared with $736,631 
 in 1880. The registered marine of the port in 1883 
 comprised 229 vessels of 110,864 tons, of which 128 
 of 70,996 tons were eteamers. The value of imports 
 from Canada in 1882 was $5,966,596 ; of exports, 
 S:^52,362. The number of lake vessels that arrived 
 in 1882 was 664 (tonnage 110,595); the clearances 
 numbered 633 (tonnage 105,773). The immense 
 quantities of grain moving from the Western States 
 to the seaboard constitute the most important fea- 
 ture of the commerce of the city. The aggregate re- 
 ceipts (including flour) by lake and the L.S.&M.C. 
 RR. were in 1880, 112,042,927 bush.; in 1881, 62,062,895; 
 in 1882, 87,116,090. For receiving, storing and trans- 
 ferring this vast amount of produce to canal boats 
 and railway ears, there are 36 elevators, capable 
 together of storing 8,000,000 bushels, and of trans- 
 ferring no less than 3,200,000 bushels a day. Live- 
 stock and lumber from the Western States and 
 Canada, and coal from Pennsylvania, are also lead- 
 ing items in commerce. In 1832, 630,995 cattle, 1,- 
 460,000 sheep, 1,965,350 hogs, and 17,504 horses were 
 received at Buffalo, and stock slaughtered aggrega- 
 ted 637,925 heads. The receipts of lumber by lake 
 in 1881 amounted to 240,802,160, besides about 40,- 
 000,000 sbingles, and 15,000,000 staves. The imports 
 of coal in 1882 comprised 3,031,791 tons. The coal 
 trade is rapidly increasing. The number of ships 
 built at Buffalo in 1882 was 29, consisting of 20 
 steamers of 1,915 tons in aggregate, 6 steam canal- 
 boats of 813 tons, and 3 barges of 1,479 tons. Manu- 
 facturing has made rapid strides of late years. The 
 stove works are very extensive. The iron and nail 
 and the malleable iron works, the planintr-mills, 
 grape-sugar and starch works, chemical works, and 
 fertilizer works, are among the largest in the 
 country. To these must be added the car wheel 
 works, iron bridge building, agricultural imple- 
 ments, freight cars, oil refineries, pork-packing 
 houses, edge tools, organs and melodeons, 11 
 large flour-mills, 60 malt-houses, 48 breweries, 
 several distilleries, 11 tanneries, and other in- 
 dustries too numerous to mention. The Board 
 of Trade, constituted in 1844 and incorporated in 
 1857, is an important institution. To its secre- 
 tary, Mr. William Thurstone, we are indebted for 
 much of the information above given. Buffalo was 
 founded in 1801. became a military post in 1813, and 
 was burned by the British on the last day of that 
 year. After the war the place was rebuilt, and in 
 1S32 it attained the rank of a citv. Pop. in 1820,

 Burliaigton, Vt., a citj-<§>, cap. of Chittenden 
 co., and the largest place iu the State, is situated ou 
 Burlington Bay on Lake Champlaiu, 40 m. W. by N. of 
 Montpelier by the C.V.RR. It was first settled in 1773, 
 but iu 1800 the pop. was only 600. The principal 
 streets are laid out at right angles, many of them 
 well shaded with elm and maple trees. The location 
 of the city is unequalled in this part of the country, 
 and the beauty of its scenery unsurpassed anywhere. 
 The geographical position of the city, midway of 
 the E. shore of Lake Champlain, and the facilities for 
 transportation by rail and water, make the whole 
 valley of the lake tributary to it in the way of busi- 
 ness. Its heaviest trade is in lumber. There are five 
 planing mills, one of which alone dresses 50,000,- 
 000 feet a year, and the whole amount dressed is 8,- 
 000,000 or 10,000,000 feet per month. The capital 
 invested is over 81,000,000. There are large quarries 
 of building stone, of limestone, and fine marble with- 
 in or near the city limits ; limc-kilns and brick-yards 
 are in active operation, and steam marble mills, ma- 
 chine shops, foundries, sash factories, chair and fur- 
 niture factories, paper mills, and many smaller man- 
 ufacturing trades, are thriving. On the N.E. limit 
 of the city the abundant water-power of the Winooski 
 is utilized for woolen and cotton mills, flour mills, 
 machine shops, chair factories, &c. A line of pas- 
 senger steamers and a large fleet of tugs and barges 
 ply between Burlington and every port on the lake. 
 The University of Vermont and State Agricultural 
 College is situated here ; it was chartered in 1791, 
 has 8 professors aud an average attendance of 100 
 students, besides a flourishing medical department, 
 and ranks as one of the best institutions in the coun- 
 try. The city has 14 public schools, 2 large Roman 
 Catholic schools and an Episcopal institute for boys, 
 several private schools, 9 churches, besides several 
 mission chapels and 2 orphan asylums. There are 
 2 nat. banks, 2 savings banks, aud 1 private banking 
 house ; 1 daily and 3 wkly papers ; 1 fire and 1 life 
 insurance company. The libraries are the University 
 Library, 15,000 vol. ; Young Men's Association, 2,- 
 000 vol.; Young Men's Christian Association, 1,000 
 vol., and the Fletcher Free Library. The city is sup- 
 plied witti water from the lake, raised by steam 
 pumps to a reservoir on the hill, which gives a head 
 of 280 feet ; the water-works are under the control 
 of the city, but the gas-works are the property of a 
 corporation. Pop. 11,364.

 California, a W. State, next to Texas the lar- 
 gest in the Union, bounded on the N. by Oregon, E. 
 by Nevada and Arizona, S. by Lower California — a 
 province of Mexico, and W. by the Pacific Ocean. 
 It lies between lat. 32° 20' and 42° N., Ion. 114° 20' 
 and 124° 25' W.; length, 775 m.; greatest breadth 
 330 m.; area, 155,980 sq. m. The sea coast extends 
 the full length of the State, amounting, following the 
 indentations, to abt. 700 m. The principal bays and 
 harbors, are Santa Monica, San Diego, Santa 
 Barbara, San Luis Obispo, Monterey, San Francisco, 
 Tomales, Bodega, and Humboldt. There are few 
 islands on the coast, and they are small. The prin- 
 cipal are the Santa Barbara Islands, which are 8 in 
 number, and lie opposite the shore of Santa Barbara, 
 Los Angeles and San Diego cos., the furthest one 
 beiug about 60 m from the mainland. They are 
 hilly, rocky, and generally sterile. Cal. may be div- 
 ided into three quite distinct portions, and these are 
 very different from each other in importance — the 
 central being much the most densely populated, 
 and in every respect the most valuable. This central 
 portion is embraced between the parallels of 35° and 
 40°, and has, on its E. side, the Sierra Nevada, and 
 on its W. the Coast Ranges, with the Pacific Ocean 
 at their W. base. Between these two mountain 
 .chains lies the Great Central Valley, which forms so 
 .marked a feature in the topography of the State. 
 This valley is drained by the Sacramento R., flowing 
 from the N., and the San Joaquin from the S., the 
 two uniting abt. midway between the N. and S. ex- 
 tremities of the valley, and entering the Bay of San 
 Francisco through Suisun and San Pablo bays. The 
 entire length of the Great Valley is abt. 450 m.; and 
 its breadth averages abt. 40 m., including the lower 
 foot-hills, so that the entire almost level area con- 
 tains abt. 18,000 sq. m. On the W. side, however, 
 the conditions are greatly changed. The rain-fall, 
 almost entirely cut off on the E. slope of the Coast 
 Ranges, becomes considerable on the W. side of the 
 more elevated Sierra, and numerous large rivers are 
 fed from the melting snow during the summer, al- 
 though, towards the close of the dry season the 
 body of water which they carry has usually become 
 very much diminished. N. of the parallel of 40°, 
 where the Coast Ranges and the Sierra unite, and 
 .the Great Valley disappears, the country is extreme- 
 ly rough and very thinly inhabited. The N.W. cor- 
 ner of the State is also extremely rough and 
 mountainous, and a large part of it quite uninhabit- 
 able. That portion of Cal. that lies to the S. and E. 
 of the S. inosculation of the Coast Ranges and the 
 Sierra, comprising an area of fully 50,000 sq. m., is 
 also very thinly inhabited, with the exception of a 
 narrow strip along the coast. The region lying E. 
 of the Sierra Nevada, and between the crest of that 
 range and the boundary of the State, chiefly divided 
 between the two cos. of Mono and Inyo, is also a 
 very mountainous tract of country. There are many 
 tine points in the scenery of Cal., some of which 
 have already become well known from the descrip- 
 tions of pleasure-travelers who have flocked to the 
 State from all parts of the world. The granite pin- 
 nacles and domes of the highest Sierra opposite 
 Owen's Lake ; the snowy cone of Mount Shasta, 
 rising lO^OOO feet above the adjacent plains ; the 
 lovely valleys of the Coast Ranges, with their pecu- 
 
 liar vegetation — all these have their charms ; but the 
 point which is most attractive of all is the Yosemite 
 (which see). The climate of Cal. is very different in 
 different parts of the State, but there are certain pe- 
 culiar features which obtain all over the State. In the 
 first place, the division of the year into two seasons 
 —a dry and a rainy one — is the most marked general 
 characteristic of the Californian climate. Again, the 
 climate of the Pacific coasts along its whole length 
 is milder and more uniform than that of the States 
 in a corresponding latitude E. of the mountains. 
 Thus, we have to go as far N. as Sitka, in lat. 57°, 
 to find the same mean yearly temperature as that 
 of Halifax, in lat. 44° 39'. But, in addition, we no- 
 tice that the means of summer and winter are much 
 nearer the mean of the year in Cal. than in the east. 
 This condition of things is not so marked as we ad- 
 vance into the interior of Cal.; but everywhere in 
 the State the winters are comparatively mild, and 
 the heat of summer is much less disagreeable in its 
 effects, because the air is exceedingly dry and the 
 evaporation proportionately rapid. The climate of 
 San Francisco is indeed wonderfully uniform ; and 
 the bracing, cool air which sweeps in from the ocean 
 during the afternoons of the summer, although not 
 favorable to persons with weak lungs or sensitive 
 throats, is the very breath of life for those who are 
 in vigorous health. One great drawback to the en- 
 joyment of the delightful climate of Cal., however, 
 is the dust of summer, which seems, until one be- 
 comes accustomed to it quite unbearable. — "The El 
 Dorado of the nineteenth century" is no misnomer 
 for Cal., which has the most wonderful gold-fields 
 of the world. They were discovered in the middle 
 of the last century by the Jesuits, who kept the 
 knowledge a secret. In Feb., 1848, Captain Sutter, 
 while digging the tail-race for a saw-mill, found 
 gold, and the news of the discovery at once spread. 
 The excitement extended throughout the Union, 
 and the "Argonauts of '49" came swarmiug tothe 
 gold-fields. People ran about the country picking 
 up the precious lumps, " as hogs in a forest root for 
 ground-nuts." The first deposit of gold from Cal. 
 was received at the U. States Mint, Philadelphia, Dec. 
 8, 1848. After melting, the average valueof the bul- 
 lion was $18.50 per ounce. The product of 1848 was 
 §10,000,000; 1849, $40,000,000; 1853, $65,000,000. 
 Since the last-named year the annual product has 
 fallen off to §18,200,000 in 1882. Organized compa- 
 nies, with capital and machinery, have to a large ex- 
 tent displaced the individual gold-hunter with his 
 simple pan. Silver mining has been attempted in 
 many localities in Cal., generally with indifferent 
 success. The product of silver mining for the year 
 1882 was $750,000. In no other part of the world has 
 cinnabar, the common ore of quicksilver, been found 
 so widely disseminated as in Cal. The old Almaden 
 mine of Spain has been worked for 2,500 years, and 
 is still the most productive. The New Almaden of 
 California, within 20 years yielded 537,176 flasks of 
 76$ lbs. each. The New Idria is but slightly infe- 
 rior, and more than 20 other mines have been suc- 
 cessfully worked. There are also valuable deposits 
 of iron ore, coal, copper, tin, platinum, manganese, 
 asphaltum, petroleum, lead, zinc, bismuth, gypsum, 
 marble, granite, limestone, borax, sulphur, salt, etc. 
 — All the products of the U. States are grown, in 
 Cal. Fruits are abundant, and of great size. 
 Among them are apples, peaches, pears, plums, 
 cherries, oranges, lemons, limes, figs, prunes, al- 
 monds, mulberries, apricots, pomegranates, nectar- 
 ines, etc. The olive is produced in great perfec- 
 tion. Wheat, oats, rye and flax are indigenous. 
 Cotton, tobacco, rice, hops, hemp, jute, tea, coffee 
 and chicory are successfully cultivated. The grapes 
 and wines are celebrated". Mulberry trees thrive 
 better than in France, and the production of silk

 merce, see San Francisco.) — The constitution of 
 Gal. requires a free school to be supported in each 
 district six months in each year. The system in- 
 cludes primary and grammar schools, high schools, 
 evening schools, normal schools, technical schools 
 and the State University. The University consti- 
 tutes a perpetual public trust, and is free to both 
 sexes. The schools of Cal. are justly famous, and 
 the educational interest is in no State better appre- 
 ciated and supported. The assessed value of real 
 and personal estate, in 1881, was 8610,263,829, and 
 the taxation, at the rate of 6.55 mills, was 83,997,228; 
 The totai public State debt amounted to 83,391,906. 
 There was in the State 2,260 in. of railroad in oper- 
 ation. — Cal. is divided into 51 counties, viz. : Alame- 
 da, Alpine, Amador, Butte, Calaveras, Colusa, Con- 
 tra Costa, Del Norte, El Dorado, Fresno, Humboldt, 
 Inyo, Kern, Lake, Lassen, Los Angeles, Marin, 
 Mariposa, Mendocino, Merced. Medoc, Moro, Mon-

 Sierra, Siskiyou, Solano, Sonoma, Stanislaus, Sutter, 
 Tehama, Trinity, Tulare, Tuolumne, Ventura, Yolo, 
 Yuba. Sacramento is the cap., and San Francisco 
 the metropolis. The other cities are Los Angeles, 
 Marysville, Oakland, San Diego, San Jose, and 
 Stockton. — Election for State offices, members of 
 Congress, and of the legislature are held biennially 
 on the first Tuesday in September (odd years). The 
 legislative department consists of an assembly, com- 
 posed of 80 members elected for 2 years, and a 
 senate of 40 members, elected for 4 years. The legis- 
 lature meets biennially, on the first Mondav in De- 
 cember (odd years). The executive department con- 
 sists of governor, lieutenant-governor, secretary of 
 State, comptroller, treasurer, attorney -general, sur- 
 veyor-general, and superintendent of public institu- 
 tions, chosen by the "people for 4 years. The judi- 
 ciary consists of a supreme court, with 5 judges 
 elected for 10 years; 17 district courts with 1 judge 
 each, elected for 6 years, and county courts, consist- 
 ing of 1 judge in each co., elected for 4 years. Cal. 
 sends 6 representatives to the Federal Congress, and 
 has S electoral votes. Upper Cal. was discovered in 
 1538 by Castillo, a Spanish navigator. In 1578, Sir 
 Francis Drake visited it, and gave it the name of 
 
 New Albion. The Spaniards planted the first colony 
 in 1768. The territory was purchased from Mexico 
 by the U. States in 1847, for 815,000,000. A constitu- 
 tion was adopted Nov. 13, 1847, and on Sept. 9, 1850. 
 Cal. without ever having been under a territorial 
 government, was admitted into the Union as a State. 
 A new constitution (excluding Chinese from citizen- 
 ship, etc.) was adopted May 8, 1879. The progress 
 of Cal. has been of the most substantial character. 
 The tendency of gold-mining to assume a stable 
 character is shown by the annual steadiness of the 
 crop. The great improvements which have taken 
 place in miniug machinery and methods now enable 
 the working with profit of low-grade ores, of which 
 there are regular and enormous deposits. The injunc- 
 tions which have in 1881 suspended the operations of 
 some of the principal hydraulic mines of Cal. may les- 
 sen by some millions the gold-harvest; but the move- 
 ment to restrain the hydraulic miners from washing 
 their tailings into the valleys, where they fill up the 
 beds of the streams and destroy agricultural lands, is 
 in itself an evidence of a growing conservatism of 
 feeling — of the increasing disposition to look upon 
 Cal. as a country in which permanent homes are to be 
 made. In the agricultural capabilities of her soil lie the 
 possibilities of her greatest wealth. The wheat crop 
 of 1880, after supplying all home demands, including 
 that of distilling, gave a surplus for exportof no less 
 than 1,400,000 tons — a surplus worth, even at the low 
 rates that prevailed ou account of the scarcity of 
 tonnage, 837,500,000, or more than twice the whole 
 bullion product of the State. Or, in other words, 
 the wheat, crop of Cal. for 1880, was worth more 
 than half as much as the bullion product of the 
 whole U. States. Among the most valuable of her 
 industries in the future will be those of the vine- 
 yard and the orchard. The natural adaptation of the 
 soil and the climate has been prove 1 beyond a ques- 
 tion. The grape-growers of the State can now sell 
 their grapes with as much certainty as the farmer 
 his wheat. There is now sent to the Atlantic coast 
 more wine than is imported from France, and it is 
 estimated that the wine crop of 1880 .yielded to the 
 growers nearly 83,500,000. Pop. in 1860, 379.994;

 these is the Blue or Kittaiiuny Mt., which bounds 
 the co. on the S.E. Anthracite is the principal prod, 
 of the co. The coal mines are in the smaller ridges 
 N.W. of this. Of these, Mauch Chunk, at the E. ter- 
 mination of the S. anthracite coal field, is the most 
 important. At the top of Summit Mt. the beds have 
 been opened and worked like a quarry, the coal lying 
 in a mass not less than 50 ft. thick. The Hazleton 
 and Beaver Meadow mines are in the N.W. corner of 
 the co. The coal is transported by RRs. from the 
 mines to the Lehigh R., and thence by slack water 
 navigation and canal, and also by the L.V.RR., down 
 the Lehigh to the Delaware R. at Easton. The Lehigh 
 R. traverses the co. across the liue of its ridges ; but 
 the mines are only on its W. side, and from 6 to 10 
 m. or more distant. The yield of the mines in this co. 
 is abt, the 6th of the whole production of anthracite. 
 The L.V.RR., and branches to Mahanoy, Mount Car- 
 mel, Hazleton and Audenried, traverse the co. The

 Catskill Creek, N. Y., a good mill stream, 
 rises in Schoharie co., flows through the S.W. comer 
 of Albany co., and enters the Hudson in Greene co., 
 at the v. of Catskill. It has a descent of more than 
 1,000 ft. in 35 m. 
 
 Catskill Mountains, N. Y., a group of 
 moderate elevation belonging to the great Appalach- 
 ian system. They are situated for the most part in 
 Greene co., their E. base being 7 or 8 m. distant 
 from the v. of Catskill. They are chiefly remarkable 
 for the beauty of their scenery and the maauiflceuce 
 of the outlook over the neighboring couutry. The 
 most striking features of the Catskills are the cas- 
 cades of the mountain streams and the deep gorges 
 or "cloves" through which these find their way to 
 the lower lands. The highest summits are Round 
 Top, High Peak, and Overlook, the elevation of 
 which, according to barometrical measurements, is 
 abt. 3,800 ft. The clove of the Catterskill, or Kaater- 
 skill, which commences a m. W. of two small lakes, 
 lies between these aud Round Top, the latter being 
 on the S. and the lakes on the N. side. High Peak is 
 6 m. distant from the head of the clove, and is reached 
 by a foot path. The clove is a ravine of 5 m. in length. 
 At its head the rivulet from the lakes meets another 
 branch from the N., and their united waters flow 
 with increasing swiftness to a point where the moun- 
 tain divides like the cleft foot of a deer, leaving a 
 deep hollow for the brook to tumble into. The de- 
 scent of the first cascade is 180 ft., that of the second 
 80, and below these there is another fall of 40 ft. In 
 the winter the upper fall becomes encased in a hol- 
 low column of blue ice, which reflects in the rays of 
 the sun the brilliant colors of the prism. Below the 
 falls the sides of the gorge rise in a succession of 
 
CAU

 walls of rock to the height of 300 ft. or more. Other 
 falls are met with by following the stream down to- 
 ward the Hudson, till 2 m. above the v. of Catskill 
 the waters are discharged into the stream of this 
 name. The Stony clove is 6 m. W. from the head of 
 the Catterskill, in a portion of the group called the 
 Shandaken Mts.; it is only 1J m. long. The clove of 
 the Plattekill is 5 m. S., beyond the Round Top and 
 High Peak ; its scenery possesses the same wild char- 
 acter as the Catterskill. Numerous side streams de- 
 scend the steep mountain on its S. side from an alti- 
 tude of 2,000 ft., leaping from ledge to ledge till they 
 mingle their waters with the Plattekill. Where the 
 stream first falls into the clove it is said to descend 
 in successive falls 1,000 ft. in a few hundred yards ; 
 and, as stated by others, 2,500 in 2 m. The streams 
 which flow down the E. slopes of the mountains soon 
 find their way into the Hudson. On the W. side the 
 drainage is into the Schohariekill, which runs N. and 
 falls into the Mohawk 50 m. above its junction with 
 the Hudson.

 Cattaraugus, N. Y., a S. W. co., bordering 
 on Pennsylvania; area, abt. 1,250 sq. m. It is partly 
 bounded N. by Cattaraugus Creek. The surface is 
 hilly, but there are few mountains of considerable 
 altitude. The soil is rich and productive, yielding 
 good crops of grain and affording excellent pastur- 
 age. The Alleghany R. and the numerous creeks 
 which flow through the co., furnish motive power. 
 Bog-iron ore, peat, marl, manganese, and sulphur 
 are found in different places; salt springs have been 
 discovered., and petroleum springs exist in the E. 
 part. Cattle and lumber are the principal exports, 
 the transportation of which is greatly facilitated by 
 the N.Y., L.E.&W.RR., which traverses the co., and 
 by the Genesee Valley Canal, which extends from 
 Rochester to Orlean. Theeo. is also traversed by oth- 
 er lines of RRs. The chief prod, in 1880 were 305,193

 Charleston, S.C, a S.E.co., bordering on the 
 Atlantic, including several islands, of which the 
 largest is Edisto ; area, 1,906 sq. m. The Santee R. 
 bounds it on the N., and it is drained by Ashley and 
 Cooper Rs. , which unite to form the harbor of Charles- 
 ton. The other chief river is the Edisto, and there 
 are numerous inlets, besides Charleston harbor, the 
 N. and S. Edisto and S. Santee, which are generally 
 navigable by small craft. The coast is broken by sev- 
 eral bays and protected by a stretch of sandy islands. 
 The surface is low, level, and in some places exposed 
 to inundation. The soil embraces every variety, from 
 the richest alluvial mould to the most sterile land. 
 There are large quantities of waste land, most of it 
 reclaimable. The sea-island cotton is raised along 
 the rivers and coast. The olive, orange, and lemon 
 have been found to mature in the open air, though 
 cut down by occasional severe winters. The palmetto 
 and the pine are amoug the indigenous forest trees. 
 A commuuicalion between the Santee and Cooper Rs. 
 has been opened by a canal 22 m. long. The chief 
 prod, in 1880 were 279,9(58 bush, of corn, 75,613 of 
 sweet potatoes, 4,569,526 bis. of rice, and 9,303 bales 
 of cotton. Cap., Charleston. Pop. 102,825 (of whom 
 4,283 for., and 71,890 colored). 
 
 — a city, a seaport, and the cap. of the above CO., 
 is situated in 32° 47' N. lat. and 79° 57' W. long. 100 
 m. S.S.E. Columbia, 82 m. N.E. Savaunah, Ga., and 
 455 m. S.S.W. Washington, D.C. It stands upon a 
 flat tongue of land pointing S.E. between the Ashley 
 and Cooper Rs., which here debouche into a spacious 
 harbor extending abt. 7 m. S.E. to the Atlantic, with 
 an average width of two miles. The harbor is sur- 
 rounded by land on all sides except the entrance, 
 which is abt. 1 in. wide and 18 ft. deep. The water 
 in the harbor, however, is very much deeper. The 
 harbor is well defended — at its entrance by Forts 
 Sumter and Moultrie, and inside by Castle Pinckey 
 and Fort Ripley. Owing to the lowness of the ground 
 on which it is built, Charleston presents a peculiarly 
 picturesque appearance from the harbor. Its prox- 
 imity to the ocean tends materially to the equalization 
 of the climate, which is generally delightful. The 
 city has a water front of abt. nine m. The most noted 
 public buildings are the city orphan house, the city 
 hall, the custom house, the arsenal, the court-house 
 aud the Academy of Music. Charleston is one of the 
 leading commercial cities of the South, being the 
 outlet for a very rich rice and cotton producing 
 country, and a point of supply for an extensive ter- 
 ritory embracing S.C. and parts of N.C.,Ga.,Ala.,Fla., 
 Tenn. and Miss. The commerce cousists chiefly of 
 exports. For the year 1882 the value of exports was 
 $19,475,433 (of which 300,401 bales of cotton value 
 $17,084,926, and 161,364 barrels of rosin and turpen- 
 tine value $540,050); of imports $577,148. Besides 
 this foreign commerce there is an extensive trade in 
 cotton, rice, naval stores, phosphate, and lumber, 
 which are shipped in large quantities to ports of the 
 U. States. The large quantities of bone phosphate 
 annually shipped, exported or consumed, which for 
 the year 1881 amounted to 173,168 tons, are obtained 
 in the vicinity of the city, where the richest deposits 
 of this material in the U. States have been discovered. 
 A valuable fertilizer is manufactured from the phos- 
 phate During the year 1882, 214 vessels of 93,530 tons 
 entereo. in the foreign trade, and 283 of 158,002 tons, 
 cleared. The number of vessels registered, enrolled 
 and licensed was 189 of 8,572 tons. Among the most 
 important industries are the manufacture of fer- 
 tilizers from phosphate, in which more than $2,000,- 
 000 is invested, and the preparation of rice for market 
 
 by removing the husk, cleaning, &c. The manuf. of 
 sulphuric acid is extensively carried on in connection 
 with the phosphate industry. Charleston has an ex- 
 tensive wholesale trade in dry goods,boots and shoes, 
 clothing, hats and caps, drugs and medicines, &c. 
 The city has 3 nat., 3 savings and 8 other banks, 
 3 daily, 4 wkly and 1 monthly papers. Three railroads 
 have their termini here, — the N.E. extending to 
 Florence ; the S.C, to Augusta, Ga.; and the S.&C. 
 The Santee canal, 22 m. long, connects Charleston 
 with the Santee R. The city has an excellent fire de- 
 partment, an efficient police system, and several 
 charitable institutions, good public schools, and a 
 normal school for girls. The higher institutions of 
 learning are the College of Charleston, founded in 
 1785, and the Medical Colleges of the State of S.C. 
 
 The Charleston library, founded in 1748, has 
 abt. 15,000 volumes. The city contains 39 churches, 
 the most noted edifices being St. Michael's, built in 
 1752, and St. Philip's, both Episcopal. — Charleston 
 was founded in 1679 by English colonists under Wm. 
 Sayle. After a seige of several weeks it was taken in 
 May, 1780, by the British, who evacuated it in Dec, 
 1782. Open hostilities in the civil war began at 
 Charleston with the bombardment of Fort Sumter by 
 Confederate General Beauregard. It was evacuated 
 by the Confederates,Feb. 17, 1865,all the public build- 
 ings, cotton warehouses, stores, shipping, &c, having 
 previously been fired by order of the general in com- 
 mand. From this and other causes the city suffered 
 much injury during the war : but since itsclose many 
 new buildings have been erected, and there has been 
 marked commercial and industrial progress. Pop. in

 m. from its mouth, and at its confluence with Elk 
 R., 65 m. S. of Parkersburg, and 369 m. N.W. Rich- 
 mond by the C.&O.RR. The valley of the Kanawha 
 is rich in salt, coal, iron and timber, and Charleston 
 is a central point for the working and shipping of 
 these articles. In the vicinity of the city are 10 salt 
 furnaces ; more salt is made here annually than at 
 any other point in the country, except Syracuse, N. Y. 
 They are situated in the Kanawha Salines, beginning 
 abt. 2 m. above Charleston, and extending up the 
 river on both sides for 10 m. The State-house is a 
 capacious stone building, 138 ft. long, 56 wide, and 
 140 high, erected in 1870. The other State institu- 
 tions are in other parts of the State. The manuf. 
 establishments comprise 2 iron foundries and ma- 
 chine works, 4 saw and planing mills, a cabinet fac- 
 tory, 2 factories for making staves aud headings for 
 salt and flour barrels, a pump factory, a mineral wa- 
 ter factory, 2 large flour mills, a woolen factory, &c.

 Charlcstowii,-/l/«ss., a former city and seaport 
 of Middlesex co., is a N. suburb of Boston, lat. 42° 
 2' N., Ion. 71° 3' 33" W. It is situated on a peninsula 
 nearly enclosed by the Mystic and Charles Rs., and 
 is connected with Boston "and Chelsea by 5 bridges. 
 The ground is uneven, and rises into two eminences, 
 Breed's and Bunker Hills, which afford delightful 
 situations for dwellings. The city is handsome and 
 well built, with pleasantly shaded rather irregular 
 streets. Three avenues, Main, Bunker Hill, and Med- 
 ford streets, traverse the peninsula, aud, converging 
 at its neck, make the fine broad avenue Broadway, 
 passing through Somerville and over Winter Hill. 
 The city has 13 churches, 2 nat. banks, 3 newspapers, 
 public parks, horse railways, a public library, aud 
 numerous charities. A state prison was formerly here 
 after the plan of that at Auburn, N. Y., which 
 contained 600 convicts. There is an extensive U. S. 
 navy-yard, occupying 70 to 80 acres, extending from 
 the Charles to the Mystic R., in which are 3 large 
 ship-houses, a ropewalk, the largest in the U. S., aud 
 machine shops for the manuf. of copper-work, ma- 
 chinery, and ordnance, capable of employing 2,000 
 men. A dry-dock connected with the navy-yard is 
 built of granite and cost 8670,000. There are $10,- 
 000,000 worth of government stores iu the yard. 
 Charlestowu has manuf. of steam-engines, boilers, 
 and machinery, chemicals, stone-ware, brass-ware, 
 brushes, sugar, soap, leather, mechanics' tools, gas 
 fixtures, whips, drain-pipes, New England ram, to- 
 bacco, oils, &c. To commemorate the battle of Bun- 
 ker Hill, a granite shaft 220 ft. high, 31 ft. sq. at the 
 base, and 15 at the top, was commenced in 1825 and 
 finished in 1843. Charlestown is supplied with water 
 from Mystic Lake, 5 m. distant. The water-works 
 were finished in 1864, at a cost of §1,461,259. The 
 water flows from the lake 1 m. by gravitatiou, is then 
 pumped by 3 engines to a reservoir on Tuft's Hill, 
 from which it flows 4 m. and supples Charlestowu 
 and the neighboring towns ; in all, a population of 
 100,000. Charlestown is memorable from its associa- 
 tion with the Revolution. It was burned by the 
 British on the day of the battle of Bunker Hill. The 
 city charter dates from 1847. The city of Charles- 
 town was annexed to Boston, Oct. 13, 1873.

 Chesapeake B*ay, Md. and Va., [from an 
 Indian word meaning " mother of waters "J, a large 
 inlet of the Atlantic, is abt. 200 m. long and from 7 
 to 20 m. broad, and generally 9 fathoms deep, and is 
 the largest bay in the U. States. Its entrance is 
 wholly^in Virginia, between cape Charles on the N. 
 and cape Henry on the S., which are abt. 12 m. apart. 
 It extends abt. 75 m. in Va., but lies mostly in Mary- 
 land, where it extends 125 m., dividing the State into 
 two parts, called the Eastern and Western Shore. 
 This bay contains many islands, chiefly on its E. side; 
 furnishes an extensive and a safe navigation for the 
 largest vessels, and has many considerable bays and 
 good harbors. The Susquehanna enters it at its N. 
 point; on its W. side it receives the Patapseo, Pat- 
 uxent, Potomac, Rappahannock, York, and James 
 Rs. On the E. shore the rivers are less extensive, but 
 generally have large estuaries. They are the Elk, 
 Sassafras, Chester, Choptatik, Nanticoke, Poeomoke, 
 and some others. The Potomac is navigable for 
 large ships to Alexandria, 290 m. from the mouth of 
 the bay. The entire surface drained by the rivers 
 which enter this bay, has been estimated at 70,000 
 sq.m.

 The city is built on a broad, open plain, abt. 6,000 ft. 
 above the sea ; Crow Creek, an afliuent of the S. 
 Platte, winds around it on two sides. The land rises 
 slightly toward the W., while toward the E. it grad- 
 ually though imperceptibly declines. The D.P.RR. 
 connects it with Denver, Col., 106 m. distant. Fort D. 
 A. Russel is situated 2J m. N.W. Cheyenne, and Fort 
 Russel depot abt. half* way between them. The de- 
 pot is used for storing and distributing the govern- 
 ment supplies for Forts Laramie and Fetterman, on 
 the N. Platte, and the Indian agencies N. of the city. 
 There are abt. 60 business houses, representing the

 ordinary branches of trade. The principal manuf. 
 are of saddles and moss-agate jewelry, the stone being 
 found in large quantities in the territory. The 
 machine and repair shops of the U.P.RR. are exten- 
 sive. There are several hotels, a small theatre, a nat. 
 bank, 2 daily and wkly papers and 6 churches. Chey- 
 enne was settled in the summer of 1867, when the U. 
 P.RR. first reached the point. At one period there 
 were 6,000 inhabitants in the place and vicinity, but 
 as the road was extended west the floating pop. mi- 
 grated with it. Pop. in 1870, 1,450; in 1880, 3,456.

 N. and S. of the Black Hills, unite E. of these moun-

 Clieyemnes, a nation of Indians, dwelling 
 in the U. States territories E. of the Rocky Mts., 
 and connected with the great Algonquin family. 
 They are associated with the Arapahoes, but are 
 much more roving in their habits than the latter. 
 They are divided in three bodies, on Milk R., Mon- 
 tana, on the North Fork of the Canadian, and a small 
 band apart. They are a tall, fine and courageous race. 
 They are generally rich in herds and are great horse 
 dealers. The attempts to educate them have met with 
 little success, and their language is very difficult to 
 learn. The tribe now scarcely numbers 3,000 souls.

 Chicago, IV., the principal city of the State, 
 and the cap. of Cook co., has within 50 years grown 
 from a small Indian trading station to the position 
 of the metropolis of the Northwest, the 4th in pop. 
 of the cities of the U. States, and the greatest rail- 
 way centre on the continent. It is situated on the W. 
 shore of Lake Michigan, at the mouth of the Chicago 
 R., 715 m. in a direct line and 912 m. by rail W. by 
 N. from New York, and 260 m. N.N.E. of St. Louis. 
 The site of the business portion is 14 ft. above the 
 lake ; it was originally much lower, but has been 
 built up from 3 to 9 ft. since 1856. It is an inclined 
 plane, rising toward the W. to the height of 28 ft., 
 giving slow but sufficient drainage. The climate is 
 healthful and invigorating, and the city is kept 
 singularly clear of all forms of malaria by the pre- 
 vailing winds. The area of the city comprises 23,000 
 acres, and extends over 7 m. N. and S. along the 
 lake shore, and 5 m. E. and W. The streets intersect 
 each other at right angles. There is an inlet called 
 the Chicago R. which runs from the lake nearly a 
 mile W. then separates into two branches, one run- 
 ning N.W. the other S. W., thus dividing the city into 
 three divisions, connected by more than 35 bridges, 
 and by two tunnels running under the bed of the 
 river. This river (" Chacaqua," Indian for thunder) 
 gave the city its name. Originally it emptied into the 
 lake, but a remarkable piece of engineering caused 
 it to change its course, and, so to speak, run ''up 
 hill." (See Chicago River). The river has been so 
 deepened that the largest vessels may be towed into 
 any of its branches, which are supplied with docks 
 and water-slips, affording a dockage capacity of 
 nearly 40 m. more than 20 of which are already in 
 use. State St., in the S. divison, is the Broadway of 
 Chicago, and on it or near it are the finest commer- 
 cial structures, hotels, retail stores, and the like. 
 Other important business streets are Lake, Clark, La 
 Salle, Randolph, Dearborn, Monroe, Madison, and 
 Washington. In fact there is scarcely a street in the 
 South or business district which does not contain 
 some notably fine buildings. The finest residences 
 are in Wabash, Prairie and Michigan avenues, which 
 
 are of a semi-suburban character, adorned with rows 
 of trees, and bordered by villas surrounded with 
 beautifully ornamented grounds. Most of the public 
 buildings were burned down in the great fire of 1871, 
 and have not been replaced as rapidly as the business 
 structures destroyed at the same time. A new city 
 hall and county court-house, estimated to cost $5,- 
 000,000, and almost finished, is a magnificent struc- 
 ture. A new U. S. custom-house and post office, 
 costing upward of $5,000,000, is one of the finest pub- 
 lic buildings in the country. The chamber of com- 
 merce is a spacious and imposing building, and its 
 interior decorations are very elaborate. The Exposi- 
 tion Building, in which an exhibition of art and in- 
 dustrial products is held every autumn, is a vast and 
 ornate structure of iron and glass, surmounted by a 
 dome 60 ft. in diameter and 160 ft. high. Chicago 
 ranks next to New York in commercial importance. 
 The shipment of leading articles of trade from 
 Chicago was stated as follows in the annual report 
 for 1882 of the Board of Trade (an association meet- 
 ing daily, with a membership of 1,936).

 There are 24 grain elevators, with an aggregate 
 storage capacity of 23,623,000 lbs. There are vast store 
 houses, where the grain is elevated from cars and ships, 
 and disposed according to grades, then reloaded on 
 cars and ships, all the work being done by machinery. 
 Chicago is the greatest grain market in the world, her 
 produce forming the basis for speculation, as stocks 
 and gold do in New York. As a market for live stock 
 it is the most important centre in the U. States. The 
 vast live stock trade is transacted at the union stock 
 yards, situated near the S. limits of the city, and con- 
 nected with all the railroad lines. The receipts of live 
 stock during 1882 were: 1,607,495 cattle and calves, 
 5,817,504 hogs, 628,887 sheep, and 13,856 horses aggre- 
 gate value $196,670,231. Chicago is a port of entry, and 
 has a considerable commerce with Canada. The total 
 value of domestic produce exported to Canada by 
 lake in 1882 was $3,973,834. During 1882, 257 vessels 
 of 119,554 tons arrived from and 327 of 154,621 tons 
 cleared to foreign ports ; 13,094 vessels arrived and 
 13,299 cleared in the coasting trade, The total num- 
 ber of vessels owned in the district of Chicago in 
 1882 was 368, with an aggregate tonnage of 67,535. 
 The mercantile trade of the city is of considerable 
 importance, as it supplies most of the vast region 
 from which produce is received. The principal indus- 
 tries are hog-packing, beef-packing, brewing, and 
 distilling, and the manuf. of iron and steel, wood, 
 brick, leather, chemicals, boots and shoes, and cigars 
 and tobacco. The number of hogs packed in 1882 was 
 2,781,064 representing over48 per cent, of all the hogs 
 packed in the West. Chicago had, in 1883, 11 nat. 
 banks, 12 other banks, and 27 bankers. The annual 
 bank clearings for 3 consecutive years were as fol- 
 lows : _i 880, $1,725,684,894; 1881, $2,249,097,450; 
 1882, $2,366,536,855. The principal lines of railroad, 
 running from Chicago are the C.&A., the P.,Ft.W. 
 &C, the C.,M.&St.P., theP.,C.&St.L.,the C..B.&Q., 
 the I.C., theM.C, the C.,R.I.&P., the L.S.&MS., 
 the C.&G.T., the C.&E.L, the W.,St,L.&P., the B. 
 &0., and the C.&N.W.— Chicago is divided into 20 
 wards, and is governed by a mayor, chosen every 
 two years, and a board of 40 aldermen. It has a very 
 efficient police force and Are department. The sys- 
 tem by which itis supplied with water has been called 
 one of the wonders of the world. The water-works, 
 which extend 2 m. under the lake, cost to this day 
 abt. $6,000,000. In 1882, the bonded debt of Chicago

 was §12,752,000. The valuation of real and personal 
 property for the purpose of taxation was §122,373,395. 
 The total city tax levied was §4,139,049. The public 
 school system in Chicago (including a high and a 
 normal school) is regarded as one of the most thor- 
 ough in the U. States. There are also many private 
 academies and several schools sustained by the Catho- 
 lics. Among the highest institutions are the Univer- 
 sity of Chicago, connected with the Dearborn Obser- 
 vatory, the North Western University (Methodist), 
 the Baptist Union Theological Seminary, Chicago 
 Theological Seminary, £t. Ignatius College (Catholic), 
 College of Law, Chicago Musical College, 7 medical 
 colleges, Ac.The Chicago historical society was estab- 
 lished in 1856, the Academy of Sciences in 1857, and 
 the Academy of Design in 1869. Charitable, benevo- 
 lent, art, &c, institutions and places of amusement, 
 are too many for enumeration here. There are 8 libra- 
 ries open to the public, of which the Chicago public- 
 library, now numbering above 60,000 volumes, is the 
 largest. The total number of daily, wkly,and month- 
 ly papers is abt. 80, not including mere advertising 
 sheets, programmes, &c. There are abt. 240 houses of 
 public worship, including the mission churches. — 
 The first visitors to the site of Chicago were Joliet 
 and Marquette, August, 1673. The first permanent 
 settlements was made in 1804, during which year 
 Fort Dearborn was built. At the close of 1830, 
 Chicago contained 12 houses and 3 "country" resi- 
 dences in Madison St., with a pop. of abt. 100. The 
 town was organized in 1833, and incorporated as a 
 city in 1837. On Oct. 8, 9, 10, 11, 1871, Chicago was 
 the scene of one of the most destructive conflagrations 
 of modern tunes. The total area burned was nearly 
 3^sq. m.; persons rendered homeless, 98,500 ; persons 
 killed, abt. 200 ; loss occasioned by the fire, abt. §190,- 
 000,000. In a year after the fire, a large part of the 
 burnt district had been rebuilt, and at present there 
 scarcely is trace of the terrible disaster save in the 
 improved character of the new buildings over the 
 destroyed. On July 15, 1874, still another great fire 
 swept over the city, destroyinff 18 blocks of 60 acres 
 in the heart of the citv, and abt. §4,000,000 worth of 
 propertv. Pop. in 1837, 4,170; in 1850, 29.963; in

 Chicago River, III. This small stream, which 
 forms the harbor of Chicago on the 8.W. border of 
 Lake Michigan, is composed of two branches. The 
 N. branch, which is abt. 40 m. long, rises in the N. 
 part of the State, and unites with the S. abt. f m. 
 from its entrance into the lake. The S. branch, which 
 is abt. 6 m. long, is sufficiently deep to afford a secure 
 harbor for any vessels which navigate the lake. The 
 natural portage from Chicago R. to the Des Plaines, 
 a branch of the Illinois, is only 6 m., and is so low 
 that at high water it is often overflowed, so that boats 
 can pass from one river to the other. The Illinois and 
 Michigan Canal, which connects Chicago with La 
 Salle, at the head of navigation on the Illinois R., 
 which falls into the Mississippi, has been deepened 
 by the city of Chicago, at a cost of §3,251,621 ; the 
 highland 26 m. being cut down to 84 ft. below the 
 ordinary water level of Lake Michigan f and this, with 
 the deepening of the bed of the Chicago R. and its 
 S. branch, permits the waters of the "lake to flow 
 through the river and branch into the canal and to 
 be carried into the Illinois. This has obviated the 
 
 offensive condition of the waters of the Chicago R., 
 which were previously a great source of annoyance 
 and sickness in Chicago.

 U. States part of their lands W. of the Mississippi 
 and S. of the Tennessee R.; and in 1833 gave up the 
 remainder for a money idemnity and a special grant 
 of land for their location E. of the Mississippi. In 
 their new territory they became allied with the Choc- 
 taws, and have since made considerable advances 
 toward a superior state of civilization, by pursuing 
 habits of agricultural industry and methodical fru-

 Chocttaws, oi-Chahtas, a tribe of Indians now 
 settled in the Indian Territory along the N. banks of 
 the Red R., where they possess abt. 10,450 sq. m. 
 When first known to Europeans they occupied the 
 district now forming the S. part of Mississippi and 
 the W. part of Alabama. On the settlement of Loui- 
 siana they formed an alliance with the French, and 
 assisted them against the Natchez and Chickasaws ; 
 but by degrees they entered into friendly relations 
 with the English, and at last, in 1786, recognized the 
 supremacy of the U. States by the treaty of Hope- 
 well. Their emigration W. began abt. 1800, and the 
 last remains of their original territory were ceded in 
 1830. In their new settlements the Choetaws con- 
 tinued to advance in prosperity till the outbreak of 
 the civil war, which considerably diminished the 
 population and ruined a large part of their property. 
 They sided with the Confederates, and their territory 
 was occupied by Confederate troops ; and accord- 
 ingly at the close of the war they were regarded as 
 having lost their rights. Part of their land they were 
 forced to surrender to the Government; their slaves 
 were emancipated ; and provision was claimed for 
 them in the shape of either land or money. Since 
 then they have considerably recovered their position. 
 They now number abt. 16,000, have 50,000 acres under 
 cultivation, and possess private prop, to the value 
 of upward of $4,700,000. They are governed by a 
 chief and a nat. council of 40 members, according to 
 a written constitution, which dates in the main from 
 1838 ; and they possess a regular judicial system 
 and employ trial by jury. Missions are maintained 
 amongst them by the American Board of Commis- 
 sioners, the Presbyterians, the Methodists and the 
 Baptists. The Choctaw language has been reduced 
 to writing, and brought to some degree of literary 
 precision by the efforts of the missionaries, who have 
 produced in the language the Bible, school-books 
 and hymnals. A newspaper is published wkly in 
 Choctaw and English at New Boggy ; and a grammar 
 was composed by the late Rev. C. Byington (Phila- 
 delphia, 1870).

 Cincinnati, 0., the chief city of the State, 
 cap. of Hamilton co., and in size the 8th city in the 
 U. States, is situated on the N. bank of the Ohio 
 R., 250 m. direct, or by the river 466 m. S.W. Pitts- 
 burg, Pa., 290 m. direct, or 500 m. by river N.E. 
 Cairo, 111., and 861 m. by rail S.W. New York. The 
 city is chiefly built upon two terraces or plateaus, 
 the first 60 and the second 112 ft. above the river. 
 Beyond these rises an amphitheatre of hills from 400 
 to 450 ft. high, from which may be obtained a mag- 
 nificent view of the valley of the Ohio and the sur- 
 rounding country. On the opposite bank of the 
 river, are the cities of Covington and Newport, which 
 communicate with Cincinnati by two bridges and 
 several steam ferries. The wire suspension bridge, 
 which is 1057 ft. long between the towers (or, includ- 
 ing the approaches, 2,252 ft.), with a height of 100 ft. 
 above low water, was completed in 1867 at a cost of 
 nearly $2,000,000. Further up the river is a wrought 
 iron railroad bridge built upon piers. Cincinnati covers 
 an area of 24 sq. m., extending along the river abt. 10 
 m. with an average width of 3 m. The most impor- 
 tant part of the city, however, is comprised within a 
 distance of 2i m. along the river. The streets are laid 
 out with great regularity, crossing each other at 
 right angles, are broad and well paved, and for the 
 most part beautifully shaded. The business portion 
 of the city is compactly built, a fine drab freestone 
 being the material chiefly used. The outer highland 
 belt of the city is beautified by costly residences 
 which stand in the midst of extensive and neatly 
 adorned grounds. Here the favorite building material 
 is blue limestone. The names of the suburbs on the 
 hilltops are Clifton, Avondale, Mt. Auburn, Price's 
 Hill, and Walnut Hills. The city is also noted for the 
 beauty of its surrounding scenery. Cincinnati is well

 supplied with public parks, the largest of which, 
 Eden, is situated ou a hill in the E. part of the city, 
 and is beautifully laid out and adorned. Burned 
 Wood, on a hill N. of the city, contains 170 acres, 
 nearly all forest. One of the most attractive objects 
 in the city is the Tyler Davidson bronze fountain 
 which was presented to the city by Mr. H. Probasco 
 in 1871, and cost nearly §200,000. The design em- 
 braces 15 bronze figures, all cast at Munich, the chief 
 one representing a female with outstretched arms, 
 from whose fingers the water falls in fine spray. This 
 is the surmounting figure, and reaches a height of 45 
 ft. above the ground. Among the most notable build- 
 ings is that of the U. States Government, built of 
 sawed freestone in the Roman Corinthian style ; it is 
 three stories high, with a length of 150 ft. and a 
 width of 80 ft. The county court-house, in the same 
 style of architecture, is 175 ft. square and three stories 
 high. The brick buildings for the city offices are 205 
 ft. long and 52 ft. wide. The Masonic Temple, built 
 in the Byzantine style, 195 ft. long and 100 ft. wide, 
 is four stories high, and has two towers 140 ft., and a 
 spire 180 ft. high. The most imposing church edifices 
 are St. Peter's Roman Catholic Cathedral, built in 
 pure Grecian style, 200 by 80 ft., with a stone spire 
 rising to a height of 224 ft.; St. Paul's Church 
 (Methodist), with a spire 200 ft. high ; and the First 
 Presbyterian Church, with an immense tower sur- 
 mounted by a spire 270 ft. high. — Cincinnati is one of 
 the most important commercial and manufacturing 
 centres of the West. The 6 railroads entering the 
 city are used by 12 companies, and besides these 2 
 lines terminate at Covington. Abt. 300 passenger and 
 freight trains arrive and leave daily on these roads. 
 The position of the city on the Ohio R. gives it water 
 communication with the extensive river system of 
 the Mississippi valley ; while it is connected with 
 Lake Erie by the Miami Canal. The number of steam- 
 ers running between Cincinnati and other ports in 
 1881 was 206 ; the number of arrivals of steamers 
 during 1881 was 2,638 ; of departures, 2,633. About 
 three-fourths of the commerce of the city is by rail- 
 road and canal, and the remainder by river transpor- 
 tation. The extent of the entire commerce is indica- 
 ted by the value of imports, which for the year 1881 
 amounted to 8274,641,218 and the exports to $271,- 
 973,776. Boat building was formerly a prominent in- 
 dustry, but it has recently declined. In 1881, 16 ves- 
 sels of 1,969 tons in aggregate were built. Formerly 
 Cincinnati was the chief centre in the U. States for 
 the slaughtering of swine and the packing of pork, 
 but the supremacy is now held by Chicago, Cincin 
 nati taking the second rank. In 1882 there were 
 slaughtered 384,878 hogs, against 522,425 in 1851. The 
 production of iron in all its branches is rapidly in- 
 creasing and will soon assume the leading rank in 
 the industrial products of the city. The total value 
 of all the manuf. of iron in 1881 was §20,557,780 ; 
 cash capital invested §9,988,390 ; hands employed 
 11,874. The manuf. of wool and especially of furni- 
 ture, is also steadily increasing. The total products 
 fo<- 1881 was valued at, §17,370,682 ; hands employed, 
 10,683. Cincinnati is the principal leather market in 
 the West, and the second in the U. States. It ranks 
 second in the manuf. of boots and shoes, and first in 
 the production of harness. The value of products 
 of leather and leather eoods during 1881 was §13,- 
 320,786: hands employed, 7,502. There are 27 brew- 
 eries, the product of which has a national reputation. 
 The production of beer during 1881 was 23,132,742 
 galls, valued at §5,676,173. Cincinnati spirits, in the 
 form of whisky, high wines, eolocne spirits, &c, are 
 sold in every State. In 1881, the product of distilled 
 liquors was 11.610,110 galls, valued at §13,139.817; 
 and of rectified liquors, 11,361.655 galls, valued at 
 $12,838,670. In 1883 there were 12 n:it. banks with an 
 aggregate cap. of §7,000,000, and 11 private banks. 
 
 There were 9 daily, 42 wkly, 4 semi-monthly, 27 
 monthly, and 5 quarterly papers. — The city is divided 
 into 25 wards, and is governed by a mayor elected 
 for 2 years, a board of 25 aldermen and a board of 50 
 councilmen. It has a very efficient paid fire depart- 
 ment and police force. The city is supplied with 
 water obtained by pumping from the Ohio R. by 
 means of 3 immense reservoirs, 2 of which, with a 
 capacity of 100,000,000 each are in Eden Park. In 1882 
 the bonded debt of Cincinnati was §24.286,217 ; the 
 valuation of real property was §120,045,230, personal 
 property, §41.359,163 ; amountof revenue from taxa- 
 tion, §3,583,177. Cincinnati has abt. 160 churches and 
 a large number and variety of well organized charita- 
 ble institutions. Secret and mutual benevolent socie- 
 ties are also very numerous, especially among the 
 German population. The public schools are under 
 the control of a superintendent and a board of 50 
 elected members, and comprise 1 normal. 3 high, 6 
 intermediate and 32 district schools. The Woodword 
 and the Hughes high schools have long been known 
 for their excellence. Besides the above, there are a 
 large number of Roman Catholic parochial schools. 
 The university of Cincinnati is designed to afford ad- 
 vanced and technical instruction free of charee. Be- 
 sides the Cincinnati Wesleyan Collesre for females 
 (Methodist Episcopal), St: Xavier College (Roman 
 Catholic), and Mount St. Mary's of the West, the 
 city has 1 law, 6 medical, and 2 theological schools, 
 4 commercial colleges, a school of design, and 2 
 schools of music. There are 11 public libraries in the 
 city, the largest being the free public library, which 
 has 81,000 bound volumes and 5,500 pamphlets, and 
 the young men's mercantile with nearly 40,000 vol- 
 umes. The most important literary associations are 
 the natural history and the historical and philo- 
 sophical societies.— Cincinnati was first settled in 178S, 
 and was named, it is said, in honor of the Cincinnati 
 society of officers of the revolutionary war. Twelve 
 years later it had 750 inhabitants. In 1814 it was in- 
 corporated as a city. Abt. 1830, the Miami canal was 
 built, which greatlv increased the prosperity of the 
 city. Pop. in 1810, 2,540 ; in 1830, 24,831 ; in 1840, 46,-

 E. border. Gold is found. The chief prod, in 1880 
 were 55,983 bush, of wheat, 390,281 of corn, 41.692 of

 Cleveland, 0., a city and port of entry, cap. 
 of Cuyahoga co., the 2d city in size and importance 
 in 0., and the 11th in the U. States, situated at the 
 mouth and on both sides of Cuyahoga R., on the S. 
 shore of Lake Erie, and on the C.,C.,C &L, the C.fe 
 P., the L.S.&M.S., aud the A.&G.W.RRs., 138 m.N.E. 
 of Columbus, 244 in. N E. Cincinnati, and 623 m.W. of 
 New York. Cleveland is the N. terminus of the Ohio

 R. Several lines of steamboats run to the various 
 lake ports. The greater portion of the city stands on 
 
CLE

 a gravelly plain, elevated abt. 100 ft. above the lake. 
 The river passes through it in a winding course, af- 
 fording an excellent harbor, which has been improv- 
 ed by dredging out a commodious ship-channel 
 (branching from the river near its mouth), and by 
 the erection of 2 piers 200 ft. apart, stretching several 
 hundred feet into the lake. On each pier is a light- 
 house, and another stands on the cliff above. The 
 city is laid out with much taste, chiefly in squares, 
 the streets being remarkably wide and' well paved. 
 The abundance of shade-trees, chiefly elms, has 
 given it the title of the "Forest City." The great 
 stone viaduct which spans the river valley between 
 the two divisions of the city, on a level with the pla- 
 teau, was completed in 1878, and is justly reckoned 
 'among the triumphs of American engineering. It is 
 3,211 ft. long, and cost 82.200.000. The most note- 
 worthy buildings are that of the U. States (contain- 
 ing the post-office, the custom-house, and the federal 
 courts), the city hall, the county court-house, the 
 house of correction and work house, the city infirmary, 
 the Cleveland medical college, Case Hall, and the 
 two high-school buildings. The Union Railway 
 depot, an immense structure of stone near the lake 
 shore, is one of the largest of the kind in the TJ. 
 States. The city has an extensive trade in copper and 
 iron ore shipped from the Lake Superior mining 
 region, and in coal, petroleum, wool, and lumber, 
 received by railroad, canal, and lake transportation. 
 During 1881 Cleveland received 5,121 tons of copper 
 valued at $2,560,500; 1,277.994 tons of iron ore, 
 valued at §11,501,946; and 39,619 tons of pig iron 
 valued at $1,109,332. The total value of merchandise 
 received coastwise was 861,921,552, cleared 837,023,- 
 210. The foreign trade is exclusively with Canada. 
 The imports for the year 1881 amounted to 8726,738, 
 the exports to 6552,161. In 1882 there were registered, 
 enrolled and licensed at this port 187 vessels of 81,- 
 329 tons, including 112 sailing vessels of 42,841 tons, 
 70 steamers of 36,622 tons, and 5 barges of 1,866 tons. 
 There were built during the year 5 sailing vessels of 
 1,583 tons, and 13 steamers of 11,320 tons. The 
 manuf., particularly of iron and coal-oi! are very im- 
 portant. The Cleveland Rolling Mills is probably the 
 largest connected concern in the manuf. of iron and 
 steel in the U. States. Its extensive works cover 
 more than 100 acres of ground, and it employs in 
 average 5,000 men. There are 20 refining companies, 
 which, besides manuf. illuminating oils, are engaged 
 in making abt. 20 distinct products from the crude 
 oil. Other important products are sulphuric acid, 
 wooden ware, agricultural implements, marble aud 
 stone, grindstones, railroad cars, white lead, &c. 
 There are 8 pork-packing concerns, employing 750 
 men ; the number of hogs slaughtered and packed 
 iu 1881 was 124,589. Cleveland has a Board of Trade 
 incorporated in 1866 ; 6 nat. and 9 other banks, 6 
 daily, 37 wkly, and 12 monthly papers. — The trovern- 
 ment of the city is vested in a mayor and a common 
 council of 2 members for each of the 18 wards. The 
 city has an efficient police and a paid fire department. 
 It is supplied with water obtained from the lake by 
 means of a tunnel 1J m. long, and forced into a 
 large reservoir on high ground in the W. part of the 
 city. The reformatory and charitable institutions are 
 numerous and varied. The assessed value of property 
 in 1881 was 879,647,156. The public schools in 1881 
 comprised 1 normal, 2 high, and 42 grammar schools, 
 in which were enrolled 24,836 pupils, with an average 
 daily attendance of 17.016. The expenditure for the 
 public schools during the year amounted to 8420,219. 
 Cleveland has no college or university, br.t there are 
 several excellent seminaries, academies, and private 
 schools for the advanced education of both sexes. 
 TheCleveland library association has 18,000 volumes, 
 the public library, supported bv taxation, abt. 20,000 
 and the law library abt. 2,000. The Bethel free read- 
 
 ing-rooms are open to the public, and the western 
 reserve historical society has a valuable collection of 
 books. Cleveland was laid out in 1796, incorporated 
 as a village in 1814, and as a city in 1836. Pop. in 1810,

 Coast IStange, or Coast Mountains, Cat, a 
 range of mts. extending nearly parallel with the 
 coast of the Pacific Ocean, from Oregon to the S. 
 boundary of the State. Its width is from 30 to 40 m. 
 and it is divided by the bay of San Francisco. S. of 
 lat. 34° 20' N. a plain from 25 to 40 in. wide lies be- 
 tween the mts. and the sea, the spurs being short 
 and ruuniug at right angles with the main ridge ; N. 
 of that the spurs form the greater part of the coast 
 line. E. of the bay is the Contra Costa ridge, which 
 is crossed by the Gabilan ridge. N. of the Gabilan 
 are the Sonoma and Cameros lidges, beyond whic h 
 the spurs are so numerous and closely connected that 
 they are scarcely distinguished by name. These 
 spurs are separated by fertile valleys, some of which 
 are 60 m. long by 10 in. broad, watered by streams, 
 and possessing a genial and agreeable climate. The 
 most noted are the Los Angeles, Salinas, Santa Clara, 
 Sonoma and Napa valleys. The highest peak of the 
 main range is Mt. San Bernardino, 11,600 ft. high, 
 lat. 33° 48.' The principal passes are S. of the outlet 
 of the Sacramento basin. The Northernmost, Liver- 
 more's pass, lat. 37° 42', is 686 ft., high ; the others are 
 mostly higher, the two Southernmost, San Gorgonio 
 and Warner's, lat 33° 10', being respectively 2,800 and 
 3,780 ft. high. Nearly all the spurs, valleys and 
 streams of the range run to the west. The coabt 
 mountains are steep and rocky. N. of lat. 38° they 
 are covered with timber and brush ; S. of that the 
 ridges nearest the ocean have some timber, and those 
 further inland are nearly bare.

 Colorado, Rio Colorado, or Colorado River 
 of tiie North, a large river which rises in the Rocky 
 Mts. and falls into the Gulf of California. The main 
 stream, known as the Green R., has its source in Fre- 
 mont's Peak on the W. borders of Wyoming, so that 
 the whole extent of its course must be upward of 
 2,000 m. After receiving the waters of the Yampuh 
 
COL

 and the White Rs. it flows S. for abt. 150 m. without 
 any important augmentation till it meets with the 
 great rival stream of the Grand R. The united 
 stream continues to force its way S., till at its 
 junction with the Colorado Chiquito, or Little Colo- 
 rado, which takes its rise in the Sierre Madre of New 
 Mexico, it turns almost due W., and cuts right ath- 
 wart the line of the mountain ranges. Its S. direction 
 is resumed after the confluence of the Virgen from 
 the Wahsateh Mts., and it only receives one other 
 tributary of real magnitude, the River Gila, before it 
 reaches the sea. The enormous canons or ravines 
 through which the Colorado and several of its con- 
 fluence force their way, ender this one of the most 
 remarkable river systems of the world. The Grand 
 Canon alone extends for a distance of abt. 200 m. W. 
 from the junction of the Colorado Chiquito, and its 
 walls rise almost sheer from the water's edge to a 
 height of from 4,000 to as much as 7,000 ft. Further 
 down is Black Canon which, with a length of 25 m. 
 and a height of 1,000 or 1,500 ft., would be considered 
 ed a magnificent phenomenon, were it not so com- 
 pletely thrown into insignificance by its more stupen- 
 dous neighbor. These very features which give the 
 river its uniqueness prevent it from being of much 
 use as a means of navigation ; but steamers can pro- 
 ceed upward as far as Callville, abt. 612 m. from the 
 mouth. The discovery of the Colorado is due to Fer- 
 nando Alascon in 1540 ;but it was not till Lieutenant 
 Ives's expedition in 1857 that even the lower part of 
 its course was properly explored. In 1869 the whole 
 course from the head-waters in Wyoming to the town 
 of Callville was traversed by a party of explorers, 
 commissioned by the U. States Government and com- 
 manded by Professor J. W. Powell. Since that date 
 the river and its basin have been the object of sys- 
 tematic survey under the same auspices, and the re- 
 sults of the gigantic undertaking have been published 
 by Pr. Powell in his Exploration of the Colorado R. of 
 the W. and its Tributaries, explored in 1869, 1870; 1871, 
 and 1872 (Washington, 1875). 
 
 — a W. State, bounded N. by Wyoming and Nebras- 
 ka, E. by Nebraska and Kansas, E. by the Indian T. 
 and New Mexico, and W. by Utah. It lies between 
 lat. 37° and 41° N., Ion. 102° and 109° W. It is 375 m. 
 long from E. to W. and 275 m. wide from N. to S.; 
 area, 103,645 sq. m. The W. portion, embracing abt. 
 4 7 of the area, is occupied by the principal chains of 
 the Rocky Mts. and numerous subordinate ranges; 
 the eastern consists of rolling plains, gradually rising 
 toward the W., where they are bounded by the foot 
 hills of the Rocky Mts. in abt. 105° W. Ion. The 
 Rocky Mts. inclose elevated plains or valleys of dif- 
 ferent areas, which are known as the North Park, 
 Middle Park, South Park and San Luis Park, 
 (which see). The North Park lies between the main 
 range of the Rocky Mts. and the S. part of the Medi- 
 cine Bow Mts., and owing to its northern situation 
 and cold climate has thus far been less explored and 
 settled than the others. The Middle Park is S. of the 
 North Park, from which it is separated by a trans- 
 verse chain. Some of the loftiest peaks of the Rocky 
 Mts. rise upon its rim. The Middle Park is drained 
 bv the sources of the Blue R., one of the confluents 
 of the Grand R., and its surface is covered by magnifi- 
 cent forests and broad, open meadows. Directly S. of 
 it lies South Park, the most picturesque of the series. 
 The continental divide bounds it on the W. and sepa- 
 rates it from the deep valley of the upper course of 
 the Arkansas R. The San Luis Park, in the S. partof 
 the State, and separated from the South Park by the 
 valley of the Arkansas, is by far the largest. It is 
 surrounded by the San Juan Mts. and the Sierra 
 Mimbres, which form a magnificent panorama of 
 snowy peaks and ranges. Thirty-five streams, de- 
 scending from the encircling snowy crests, water the 
 park. Nineteen of these streams empty into the 
 
 beautiful San Luis Lake, while the others join the 
 Rio Grande, which traverses the park from N. to S. 
 There are other parks of smaller area and lying E. or 
 W. of those above named. — No other State has at 
 any time advanced so rapidly as Colorado did during 
 the past thirteen years. In 1870 the total pop. of the 
 then territory was 39,864; in 1880 it was 194,327, and 
 was not less than 230,000 in 1883. Mining was the 
 foundation of Colorado's prosperity, and continues to 
 be its leading industry and greatest source of wealth. 
 For the production of silver alone it ranks first. For 
 gold it holds the 4th rank — after California, Nevada 
 and Dakota. For the year 1880, the gold yield was 
 82,750,000. The production of silver increased slowly 
 from §650,000 in 1870 to .$3,726,000 in 1877. Then came 
 the discovery of the Leadville carbonates, and the 
 " silver era" of Colorado began. The silver product 
 in 1878 was §6,000,000; in 1879, §12,000,000, and in 
 1880, §16,500,000. Coal mining is second in impor- 
 tance only to the mining of the metals, and the de- 
 velopment of the coal deposits has been in keeping 
 with Colorado development generally, as the follow- 
 ing table, presenting the condition of affairs in 1870 
 and 1880, sufficiently 6hows :

 Throughout Colorado vast deposits of iron ore are 
 found, but until 1881 these remained unproductive. 
 There being no works available for the reduction of 
 the ore, it rested in the earth, valueless. In 1877 a 
 rolling mill was set up at Pueblo, to be removed the 
 following year to its present position in Denver. In 
 the census of 1880 this little mill — now owned by the 
 Colorado Coal and Iron Company — with its two trains 
 of rolls and its daily capacity of 40 tons, is the sole 
 representative of Colorado's iron industry. Between 
 the taking of the census and the publication of the 
 returns the great iron works at Pueblo began opera- 
 tions. The furnace, with a daily capacity of 100 tons, 
 went into blast Sept.17, 1881, and from that time on- 
 ward has been producing an exceptionally fine quality 
 of iron. — After mining, stock-raising was the next 
 industry to attract a large amount of capital. This 
 business has increased constantly since its founda- 
 tion, and still relatively holds its own, as the follow- 
 ing comparative table shows

 Colorado is a natural grazing region. In many re- 
 spects it possesses advantages for cattle and sheep- 
 raising superior to those of any other grazing region 
 in the world. It. affords a great abundance of rich 
 grass, and the dryness of the climate is such that the 
 grass cures standing, and throughout the winter is an 
 excellent hay ; while the configuration of the coun- 
 try — broken by many deep ravines — together with the 
 plentiful limber, affords a shelter against storms suf- 
 ficient to permit the stock to winter in safety unhous- 
 ed. — Agriculture, the third great industry of the 
 State, has scarcely kept pace with mining and stock- 
 raising ; yet a marked advance was made in the ten 
 years beiween 1870 and 1880. Since irrigation has

 come to be a well understood science, a vast amount 
 of laud that a few years ago was regarded as waste 
 and valueless has been brought into productiveness 
 and value. Wheat is the leading crop, and its excel- 
 lence — hardness and size of grain and fineness of 
 quality — has made Colorado flour famous not only in 
 the W. but in the E. The following table presents 
 concisely the product of the State in 1870 and 1880 :

 At the foundation of all of Colorado's prosperity, 
 at once the cause and the effect of its rapid develop- 
 ment, have been its railways. When the Kansas 
 Pacific reached Denver, in 1870, nearly the whole of 
 the present inhabited portion of the State was a wil- 
 derness. There were a few mining camps and a few 
 trading posts ; but the greater portion of the terri- 
 tory was deserted of inhabitants, save hostile Indians. 
 The annual increase in mileage, on all the Colorado 
 roads collectively, shows how rapidly the advance 
 was made :

 As the general result of the industrial development 
 above uoted, together with the growth of various 
 minor industries, the total assessed value is of prop- 
 erty in Colorado has increased from $17,388,101 in 
 1870, to $73,698,746 in 1880, and $91,630,885 in Nov., 
 1881— a net gain in 17 mouths of nearly $18,000,000.— 
 Colorado is divided into 33 counties, viz.; Arapahoe, 
 Bent, Boulder, Chaffee, Clear Creek, Conejos, Cos- 
 tillo, Cutter, Dolores, Douglas, Elbert, El Paso, Fre- 
 mont, Gilpin, Grand, Gunnison, Hinsdale, Huerfano, 
 Jefferson, Lake, La Plata, Larimer, Las Animas, 
 Ouray, Park, Pitkin, Pueblo, Rio Grande, Routt, 
 Saguache, San Juan, Summit, and Weld. The princi- 
 pal cities and towns are Black Hawk, Boulder, Canon 
 City, Central City, Colorado Spiings, Denver (the cap. 
 and chief city), Georgetown, Golden, Greeley, Lead- 
 ville, Silver Cliff, and Trinidad. — Colorado was organ- 
 ized as a territory March 3, 1851, and admitted to the 
 Union as a State, Aug., 1876. Gold was found in 1858.

 ColsasBiUsia, or Oregon, a great river, which 
 rises in Otter Lake on the W. slope of the Rocky 
 Mts., in British Columbia, in lat. 50°30' N., Ion. 116° W. 
 It flows N.W. to lat. 52° 10', where it receives the Ca- 
 noe, which rises in abt. lat. 52° 45', then turns W. aDd 
 S., and flows in a general S. direction to the boundary 
 of the U. States, whence, entering Wash. Territory, its 
 course lies through the great plain between the Cas- 
 cade and Rocky Mts. to the 46th parallel. Here, turn- 
 ing somewhat abruptly, it flows in a general W. direc- 
 tion, forming the boundary between Wash. Terri- 
 tory and Oreg., and falls into the Pacific iu abt. lat. 
 46° 15' N., Ion. 134° W. There is a remarkable bend 
 in lat. 47" 55' N., Ion. 118° 10' W., where the river 
 turns nearly due W., and continues in that direction 
 abt. 130 m. to the mouth of the Okinakane. It then 
 flows S.W. abt. 50 in., when it turns S.E., and flows 
 in that direction abt. 165 m. to the 46th parallel. 
 Throughout its entire length the Columbia is very 
 rapid, often passing through mountain gorges and 
 broken by many cataracts. The tide sets up 165 m. 
 to the Cascades, which are a series of rapids caused 
 by the passage of the stream through the Cascade 
 range. At a distance of abt. 30 m. from the ocean the 
 river expands into a kind of bay from 3 to 7 m. wide, 
 which forms its mouth. At low tide there is abt. 20 
 ft. of water over the flats at the entrance to this bay, 
 while the depth of the channel is 24 ft. Ocean steam- 
 ers can ascend to Vancouver, 115 m. above the mouth, 
 and steamers of 200 or 300 tons to the Cascades, 
 around which there is a railroad 6 m. long. The 
 Dalles, 40 m. further, again obstruct navigation. Here 
 the river bends like a horseshoe to the S. and |o*s 
 with a rapid current through a basaltic trough with 
 walls 20 ft. high and 200 yards apart. Other falls, 
 with stretches of navigable water between, are Priest 
 rapids, 179 m. above the Dalles; Buckland rapids, 66 
 m. further; and Kettle falls, 374 m. above. The last 
 is a perpendicular fall of 15 ft. At high water (from 
 
COL 
 
 253 
 
 COL 
 
 the midde of May to the middle of July) steamers 
 could probably ascend from the Dalles to Kettle falls. 
 Above Kettle falls the river is again navigable abt. 
 50 m. to falls just N. of the 49th parallel. Above the 
 head of Upper Arrow Lake, lat. 50° 30' N., there is 
 no navigable water. At Vancouver the Columbia is a 
 a mile wide. Its total length is over 1,200 m. The 
 rise at Vancouver during high water is 19 or 20 ft., 
 and so great is the force of the current as to over- 
 come the effect of the tide, and render the water 
 drinkable even on the bar. The principal E. branches 
 are the Kootenay (also called McGillivray or Flat 
 Bow), which joins the Columbia in British Territory 
 abt. 20 m. N. of the boundary; Clarke's, or Flathead 
 R.; the Spokane, and Lewis fork (also called the Sap- 
 tin or Snake R.), which is the great southern tribu- 
 tary, and rises in the Rocky Mts. in W. Wyoming, 
 abt. lat. 44° N., Ion. 110° 30' W. The tributaries from 
 the west are smaller; the chief are the Nehoialpitkwu, 
 Okinakane, and Yakama. Below the great bend sev- 
 eral streams empty into the Columbia from the north, 
 the largest of which is the Cowlitz; from the south 
 it receives the Umatilla, John Day's R., the Des 
 Chutes, and the Willamette. On the 7th of May, 1792, 
 Capt. R. Gray, in the ship Columbia, of Boston, dis- 
 covered and entered the mouth of this majestic 
 stream, and giving it the name of the vessel in which 
 he sailed, cabled it the Columbia R. In 1804-5, Lewis 
 and Clarke made the first exploration of the river 
 ever made by civilized men, and passed the winter of 
 1805-6 at its mouth. The Missouri Fur Company, in 
 1808, established a trading-house on Lewis R., the 
 first ever formed on the waters of the Columbia; and, 
 in 1811, Astoria was founded, at the mouth of the 
 river, by the Pacific Fur Company, under J. J. Astor, 
 of New* York.

 Columbus, O., a city, cap. of the State and 
 of Franklin co., pleasantly situated on each side of 
 the Scioto R., but principally on the E. side, and 70 
 m. from its mouth, 110 m. N.E. of Cincinnati, and 
 350 m. from Washington, D. C. It is in lat. 39° 57' 
 N. and Ion. 83° 3' W. from Greenwich. It is well 
 laid out on a level site iu the midst of an extensive 
 plain, and possesses very broad and handsome 
 streets, pleasantly shaded with elm trees. High 
 street is its principal thoroughfare, and Capitol 
 Square one of the most spacious of its open areas ; 
 while Broad Street, 120 ft. wide, is laid out for a 
 stretch of 2 m. As the cap. of the State, it con- 
 tains the usual public buildings, which are all on a 
 large and liberal scale. The Capitol is an imposing 
 edifice built of gray limestone with a rotunda 150 
 ft. high. It covers an area of 55,936 sq. ft,, and its 
 internal accommodations are most complete. There 
 are also iu and around the city the penitentiary, ex- 
 tending over more than 10 acres of ground, and ac- 
 commodating upward of 1,000 prisoners ; the new 
 lunatic asylum, capable of containing 600 patients ; 
 the blind asylum, the idiot asylum, deaf and dumb 
 asylum, the 'U. States arsenal, various hospitals and 
 charitable institutions, a county court-house, a coun- 
 ty infirmary, the Starling medical college, the Luth- 
 eran university, an agricultural and mechanical col- 
 lege, the odd-fellows' hall, and a fine opera-house. 
 The city hall, on the S. side of State street, erected 
 at a cost of §200,000, and containing the post-office, 
 public library, and city offices, is a Gothic building, 
 1871 by 80 ft,, with a central tower 138 ft. high. The 
 high-school building is a fine specimen of the simple 
 Norman style of architecture. The city possesses a 
 fine park of about 40 acres, named in honor of its 
 donor, Dr. Lincoln Goodale, and another of equal 
 extent called the City Park. The grounds of the 
 Franklin Co. Agricultural Society occupy 83 acres, 
 and the gardens of the Columbus Horticultural So- 
 ciety 10. The manuf. of the city are important and 
 various ; flour mills, engineering works, and factor- 
 ies for agricultural implements, brushes, carriages, 
 harness, files, and furniture are among the chief es- 
 tablishments. There are 24 hotels, 3 nat. banks 
 with an aggregate capital of S500,000, 2 State and 6 
 other banks, 2 savings banks, and a clearing-house 
 association, and 5 insurance companies, of which 
 one is a life insurance association. Columbus has 
 great advantages for internal commerce. It is situ- 
 ated on a branch of the Ohio Canal, at the intersec- 
 tion of 11 lines of RRs. The leading commodity is 
 coal. The geographical situation of Columbus, with, 
 a vast coalless district exteuding N. and N.W. of it 
 for hundreds of miles, its accessibility to a coal-seam 
 of enormous quantity and superior quality, by way 
 of the C.&H.V.RR., make it a great outlet for the 
 article. The city is divided into 9 wards, and is gov- 
 erned by a mayor and a common council of 17 mem- 
 bers. The fire department is under the control of a 
 chief engineer. The Roman Catholics have 4 parish 
 schools, with an average attendance of 1,020, and 
 several academies and seminaries. Other educational 
 institutions are Capitol university (Lutheran), and 
 Starling medical college. The State Library con- 
 tains over 30,000 volumes. There are 44 churches, 2 
 musical societies, 3 daily, 4 tri-wkly, 5 wkly and 4 
 monthly papers. At the time Columbus was laid out 
 as a town in 1812, it was an almost unbroken forest, 
 with no resident within its limits ; and it had only 
 500 inhabitants when in 1816 it became the cap. of 
 the State. Its growth and wealth are largely due to 
 the concentration of the State institutions and the

 Coney Ssland, N. Y., is the popular water- 
 ing place of New York city, and is uuique in its ap- 
 pearance, its patronage and its history. The island, 
 which is in Gravesend tp., Kings co.. is the extreme 
 W. end of a great outlying sand-bar, broken by inlets, 
 which extend along the S. coast of Long Island for 
 nearly 90 m., its different sections being known as 
 Coney Island, Rockaway, Long, Jones, Oak Island, 
 and Great South Beaches. Coney Island is a part of 
 the town of Gravesend, and is separated from the 
 shore by Gravesend Bay on the W., Sheepshead Bay 
 and Coney Island Creek on the N., runs to a point 
 on the E., and has the broad Atlantic for its S. bound- 
 ary. The distance from the Battery to the wharf at 
 the western extremity of the island is abt. 8J m. as 
 the bird flies. Prior to 1875 this fine stretch of beach 
 5 m. long, with its splendid surf, and its unequaled 
 location in point of accessibility from New York, 
 Brooklyn and other adjacent cities, was little more 
 than a barren waste of sand. On the W. end of the 
 island was a small hotel, and 2 steamboats made 
 daily trips to that point. At the present time, 1882, 
 8 steam railways, one line of street cars, and 9 lines 
 of steamboats, capable of transporting at least 150,- 
 000 persons to and from the beach daily, are in oper- 
 ation. The beach itself is covered with light and 
 airy buildings of all sizes and for every conceivable 
 purpose, and during the season the sands are black 
 with people daily. Three of the hotels are among 
 the finest of their kind in the world, and a number 
 of others are fully equal to the best hotels at other 
 watering places. Pop. 1,184.

 the Union after Rhode Island and Delaware, is 
 bounded N. by Mass., abt. 88 m.; E. by Rhode Island 
 45 m., S. by Long Island Sound, 100 m., and W. by 
 New York, abt. 68 m. (direct). The S.W. corner 
 projects' along the Sound under New York for abt.

 13 m.; area, 4,845 sq. m. The State lies on the S. 
 slope of the hilly regions of New England, with a 
 general surface much diversified ; there is however 
 no land above 1,000 ft. in elevation. The western 
 plateau, with its numerous ranges and ridges, is the 
 culminating ground, and is on the whole better 
 adapted to grazing and dairying than to the growth 
 of cereals. It is intersected by the valleys of the 
 Housatonic R. and its tributaries, and gradually 
 descends in a S. directiou until it terminates with 
 low hills near the shores of the sound. The central 
 or Connecticut River Valley is the best farming 
 l egion of the State, and has an average width of over 
 20 m. Ceutral Valley belongs to the red sandstone 
 formation. The E. portion of the State consists of 
 numerous ranges of hills with gentle declivities, 
 and contains in the valleys which intersect it much 
 excellent farm laud. Most of the State is drained by 
 3 principal rivers with their branches : the Connecti- 
 cut in the ceutral, the Housatonic in the western, 
 and the Thames in the eastern part. — The rocks are 
 granite, traps, sandstone, limestone, &c. From the 
 quarries at Portland are obtained vast quantities of 
 the red sandstone, of which the brownstone fronts of 
 city houses are made. Granite of the finest quality 
 is found in great variety and is extensively used for 
 building purposes. In the vicinity of Milford is 
 found in small quantities a beautiful marble re- 
 sembling verd antique. Iti Litchfield co., are exten- 
 sive quarries of pure white marble, iu great demand 
 for building purposes. The State capitol at Hartford 
 is built of marble from Canaan. Feldspar quarries 
 in Glastonbury and Middletown supply material for 
 porcelain and crockery. In Lyme is found a choice 
 variety of porphyry. In Bolton are quarries of mi- 
 caceous slate, furnishing the cities of the neighbor- 
 hood with tine paving stones. Copper is found in 
 Gran by, Bristol and other sections of the State, but 
 the mines are not at present worked. Lead and silver 
 are also found, but not to any profitable extent. 
 Hydraulic lime, from the borders of Southington and 
 Berlin is used extensively for the manuf. of water 
 cement. In Chatham is a cobalt mine. Extensive 
 beds of hematite iron ore are found, especially in 
 Salisbury and Kent ; and the iron works at the former 
 place have long been celebrated. For the year 1880 
 the production of iron ore in Connecticut amounted 
 to 35,018 tons. — The climate of the sea-coast and the 
 Connecticut Valley is mild and salubrious. In the 
 bill-country of the N.W. the winters are much more 
 severe and the quantity of snow greater. The mean 
 temperature at New London 47.07°; at Litchfield, 44.- 
 68°. at New Haven, 50.82°; forthe whole State, 49.62°. 
 The higher portions of Conn, are well adapted to 
 stock raising, and cattle, butter and cheese form im- 
 portant articles of export. The rich valleys produce 
 the cereals, fruit and vegetables of the temperate 
 zone in great abundance. The cultivation of tobacco 
 has greatly increased of late, particularly in the val- 
 ley of the Connecticut R.

 In 1881 the live stock in farms included 54.000 
 
 horses valued at $3,081,780 ; 118,800 milch cows val- 
 ued at $3,370,356; 125,600 oxen and other cattle, 
 valued at $3,815,728 ; 98,071 sheep valued at $348,162; 
 and 60,600 hogs valued at $833,250. There were iu 
 1880 30,598 farms iu the State, mostly small and val- 
 ued in gross at some $130,000,000. The forest woods 
 are oak, pine, chestnut, walnut, butternut, birch, 
 beach, ash, elm, maple, poplar, basswood.whitewood, 
 hemlock and cedar. The principal fruit trees are the 
 apple, pear, quince, cherry and plum. Peaches, after 
 disappearing for many years, have again begun to 
 thrive. Raspberries are cultivated to a considerable 
 extent. Grape vineyards are increasing in number 
 and excellence yearly, the annual wine products 
 being abt. 30,000 galls— The chief material glory of 
 the State is in the extent and variety of its manufac- 
 tures, exceeding by far those of any other State in 
 the Union or of any people iu the world in propor- 
 tion to the population. There is not a water power 
 in the State (and it has many), but turns the wheels 
 of some productive industry, and a very large part 
 of the inhabitants are, directly or indirectly, interest- 
 ed iu some kind of manufactures. All the large 
 towns and villages o\\ e their growth to their factories, 
 and every year increases their number. Nowhere in 
 the world has there been such a development of 
 mechanical ingenuity in the way of labor-saving 
 appliances and new inventions. The State stands 
 first in the matter of patents. Many of the machines 
 used in metal working are marvels of skill, especially 
 those for the manufacture of pins, needles, hooks 
 and eyes, tubes, screws, fish-hooks and fire-arms. In 
 the manuf. of clocks, India rubber goods and hard- 
 ware, Connecticut leads the world. The. city of 
 Waterbury, hundreds of miles away from the great 
 copper producing regions, has become the centre 
 of brass manufacturing for the whole U. States; 
 New Haven for its large manufactories of improved 
 fire-arms and cartridges. At Hartford are the exten- 
 sive works of the Colt fire-arms company. Merideu 
 is noted for its britannia ware, bronze and glass 
 works, etc. Norwich is largely interested in woolen 
 manufactories. Willimautic has the largest mill for 
 the manuf. of cotton thread in the world.' Thompsou- 
 ville is famous for its carpets. Manchester has the 
 extensive Cheney silk works and a large gingham 
 factory. Through the E. part of the State are large 
 cotton mills, and the State stands fifth iu 1880 on 
 the list in manuf. of cotton goods, having 82 estab- 
 lishments with an aggregate capital of $20,310,500; 
 spindles 936,376; looms 18,261. The axes and agri- 
 cultural tools made by the Collins company of Collins- 
 ville are known throughout the world. Danbury is 
 one of the most extensive hat manuf. towns in the 
 country. Middletown does a large business iu pumps 
 and plated goods. Bridgeport is the headquarters for 
 sewing machines, having the great factories of the 
 Wheeler & Wilson and the Howe machines. New 
 Britain is famous for its house furnishing goods, 
 table cutlery, rules and levels, etc.; and these are 
 only a portion of the towns which might be men- 
 tioned which are known throughout the country for 
 their manufactures. In 1880 there were in the Siate 
 4,488 manufacturing establishments ;capital $120,480,- 
 275; hands emploved. 112,915; wages paid during the 
 year,$45,501,518 ; value of materials.$102,185,341 ; val- 
 ue of products, $185,797,211. The principal manuf. 
 are agricultural implements, boots and shoes, brass 
 and iron goods, carpets, carriages, clocks, clothing, 
 cotton goods, dye-stuffs, fire-arms, hardware, hats, 
 hooks and eyes, hosiery, professional and scientific 
 instruments, India rubber goods, jewelry, leather, 
 etc. — Connecticut has 5 custom districts, to which 
 866 vessels of 96,410 tons belonged in 1880. The di- 
 rect commerce with foreign countries was formerly 
 far more important than it is at. present, and is being 
 absorbed more and more by New York. — The State

 is intersected in all directions by 22 railroads which, 
 in 1882 operated 959 m. within the State limits. The 
 State is thoroughly interlaced with telegraph wires 
 reaching nearly every city, town and hamlet within 
 her borders. — The State is the home of a number of 
 the largest and safest insurance companies in the 
 country,both fire and life. For most of these the head- 
 quarters is at Hartford. The assets of the fire com- 
 panies are over 819,000,000; and those of the life com- 
 panies over $102,000,000 ; there are 12 of the former 
 and 8 of the latter. — The educational facilities of the 
 State are of the first order. The school fund amounts 
 to over .$2,000,000, the income of which is devoted to 
 the support and encouragement of the common 
 schools The schools are free, being maintained by 
 local taxation, and the assistance received from the 
 fund. There are over 1,600 public schools, with some 
 2,600 teachers, and with over 139,000 pupils. In addi- 
 tion, there are a number of schools supported by in- 
 dividual liberality. Several of tlK best prepartory 
 schools of the country are in the State, such as Hop- 
 kins', grammar school, of New Haven, the Hartford 
 high school and the Norwich free academy. For the 
 higher education the State has Yale College at New 
 Haven, Wesleyan University (Methodist), at Middle- 
 town, and Trinity College (Episcopalian) at Hart- 
 ford. Connected with Yale College is the Sheffield 
 Scientific School, and schools of law, medicine, 
 theology and fine arts, with a post-graduate course, 
 which justly entitles the college to be called a univer- 
 sity. Two-thirds of the students are from other States. 
 At New Britain is an excellent normal school for the 
 education of teachers. — The State is divided into 8 
 counties, viz.: Fairfield, Hartford, Litchfield, Middle- 
 sex, New Haven, New London, Tolland, and 
 Windham. The cities are Bridgeport, Hartford (the 
 cap.), Middletown, New Haven, New London, Nor- 
 wich, and Waterbury. — The constitution of Connec- 
 ticut was adopted in 1818, but has since been amend- 
 ed. The legislature consists of a Senate of 21 mem- 
 bers and a house of representatives of 217 members. 
 The governor (salary $2,000) and other executive of- 
 ficers are chosen annually. The supreme court of er- 
 rors consists of 5 judges. The Superior court con- 
 sists of the 5 supreme judges and 6 ot her judges. Each 
 has $3,500 salary. There are courts of common pleas 
 in the four most populous counties. Justices of the 
 peace are elected in every town. For the year 1880 
 the State receipts amounted to 82,506,971 and the 
 expendtures to $1,600,383. The State debt was 84.966,- 
 600. Ihe val. of taxable prop, was $327,182,435. 
 — The Dutch of the New Netherlands first explored 
 the Connecticut R. They erected a fort in 1633. In 
 1636 colonists from Massachusetts settled along the 
 river. New Haven was settled in 1638. A constitu- 
 tion for the goverment of the colony of Connecti- 
 cut was perfected and approved by a general vote 
 of the people, Jan. 14, 1639. It formed the basis 
 of the charter obtained for Charles II. in 1662, 
 and its leading features have been copied into the 
 constitution of the several States and of the U. States. 
 According to current history, the royal charter 
 was saved by being hid in the " charter oak " when 
 Sir Edmond Andros tried to get possession of it in 
 1687. This constitution was of so general a charac- 
 ter, that no change was necessary when Connecti- 
 cut took her stand as one of the independent States 
 of the Union, on the declaration of independence 
 in 1786, and continued in force till 1818, when the 
 present constitution was formed. Pop. in 1679, 12.535 ;

 <TuBBD&8>eB-laBa4l MioaBiataiiBSi, that portion 
 of the Appalachian group which ranges along the S. 
 W. border of Virginia and the S.E. of Kentucky, and 
 thence passes across the State of Tennessee into the 
 N.E. part of Alabama. It spreads over a width of abt. 
 50 m., parallel ridges alternating with longitudinal 
 valleys. The ridges rarely exceed 2,000 ft. in height. 
 They are rocky and little cultivated, but the valleys 
 are fertile. These mountains lie west of the range of 
 granite and metamorphie rocks which compose the 
 mountains on the W. borders of North Carolina and 
 the N. part of Georgia. They are upon the range 
 of the great coal formation of the Middle States, and 
 essentially composed of the same groups of stratified 
 rocks as those of the Alleghany mountains, Chestnut 
 ridge and Laurel hill in Pennsylvania. The Tennes- 
 see R. and its branches drain the E. slopes until it 
 ci'osses the range, flowing toward the Ohio, like the 
 Cumberland. 
 
 ©BaBB»l>4>B\Bam«l River, A'//, and Tcnn., a large 
 river, rises in Ky., on the W. slope of the Cumberland 
 Mts., near the boundary of Va., and pursues a very 
 circuitous course to the Ohio, which it enters abt. 12 
 m. above the entrance of the Tennessee. The eleva- 
 tion of its sources above its mouth is supposed to ex- 
 ceed 1,000 ft. Its course is first W.and S.W. until it 
 enters Tenn., and bearing still S., passes round with 
 an extensive sweep to Nashville. Its course is then N. 
 W. until it re-enters Ky.. and flows in this direction 
 abt. 50 in. across the State to its junction with the 
 Ohio. Not far from Williamsburg, Ky., it has a 
 remarkable vertical fall of 60 ft. Its comparative 
 length is abt. 450 m.; although from the great tortu- 
 ousness of its channel, its entire length, following the 
 course of the stream, cannot be less than 600 m. 
 Without reference to the inflections of the river, itself, 
 the valley which it drains is 350 m. long, with an aver- 
 age breadth of 50 m., comprehending an area of 17,- 
 500 sq. m., which, in superficies, is the third in rank 
 of those of the tributaries of the Ohio. The greatest 
 part of this valley lies between lat. 36° and 37°, and 
 Ion. 6" and 12° W. from Washington. In an ordinary 
 stage of water, the river is navigable for vessels and 
 lartre steamboats to Nashville, 200 m., and for boats 
 of 15 tons 300 m. farther. For half its length it is 
 navigable for small craft at all seasons. It is the 
 second river in size that enters the Ohio, being in- 
 ferior only to the Tennessee.

 Dakota, a N.W. territory, bounded N. by the 
 Dominion of Canada, E. by Minnesota and Iowa, S. 
 by Nebraska, and W. by Wyoming and Montana. It

 DAK 
 
 is situated between lat. 42° 30' and 49° N., Ion. 96° 
 20' and 104° W.; length, from N. to S., 450 m., 
 breadth, from E. to W., 350 m.; arei, 147,700 sq. m. 
 The general surface of the country in the E. part is 
 an undulating prairie, free from marsh and swamp, 
 but traversed by many streams and dotted with a 
 great number of lakes. A plateau of an average ele- 
 vation of 1,450 ft. above the sea, and 15 or 20 m. iu 
 breadth, extends 200 m. from the S. along the E. 
 border ; a similar table land, of less elevation, occu- 
 pies the middle and N. portion. In the S.W. part of 
 the territory are the Black Hills and the " mauvaises 
 terres" or "badlands." The general topographical 
 character of this section of the country is mountain- 
 ous, though the hills do not rise to a great height 
 above the creek or gulch levels, but in all cases rise 
 very abruptly. The Missouri R., which is navigable 
 throughout its entire course iu Dakota, traverses 
 the territory from the N.VV. to the S.E. corner. Its 
 largest tributary is the Yellowstone which, flowing 
 through Montana, joins the Missouri on the border 
 of the territory in lat. 48°. The Big Cheyenne flows 
 E. to the Missouri in S. Dakota. In the E. portion of 
 the Territory the most important tributaries are the 
 Dakota or James R., which, after flowing nearly 400 
 m. 8., unites with the Missouri a few miles below 
 Yankton ; the Vermilion and Big Sioux, which are 
 each more than 150 m. long. The Red River of the 
 North flows N. into British America, aud forms the 
 E. boundary of Dakota for nearly 250 m. It is navi- 
 gated by the Hudson Bay Company's steamers nearly 
 200 m S. in Dakota. Flowing into the Red R. are 8 
 rivers from the W., varying in length from 40 to 100 
 m. The territory has a great number of lakes and 
 ponds, which afford a constant supply of good wa- 
 ter. In the N. portion is a large body of salt water, 
 40 m. long and 12 m. in maximum breadth, called 
 Minniwaken or Devil's lake. Here also are rich de- 
 posits of salt. — Good building stone is found in 
 many localities. On the extreme W. boundary of 
 the territory, divided by the line between Dakota 
 and Wyoming, lie the coal fields. Little has as yet 
 been done for their development, and not much can 
 be said of them or their extent. Large quantities of 
 the coal have been tested in the furnaces of the 
 mills in the mining regions, and with proper means 
 of transportation it would make by far the most 
 economical fuel that cau be used. The development of 
 the mineral and agricultural resources of the Black 
 Hills has proceeded with great rapidity. The char- 
 acter of the gold-bearing quartz is such that the ex- 
 pense of working it is light, and can be done with 
 profit where the value of the ore is only $12 per ton, 
 though it is found continually worth from $100 to 
 $200 per ton. Silver is found in abundance not far from 
 Deadwood and other localities among the hills, and 
 silver mining will doubtless be an industry equal to 
 the gold-mining interest. For the year 1882 the yield 
 of gold amounted to $4,000,000 ; of silver, $70,000. 
 In the purity and abundance of the supply of water 
 the Black Hills are unequaled by any region in the 
 great West. — The climate is highly favorable to 
 health, the atmosphere is drv and pure, and there 
 is comparatively little rain. While the winters in the 
 North are severe, the climate of the South is mild, 
 and observations made at Fort Clark, lat. 47°, show 
 the mean temperature for the 6 months, beginning 
 with Dec, to have been but 1° lower than at. New 
 York. The soil of Dakota is a rich black loam, ad- 
 mirably adapted to agricultural purposes. This is 
 true of almost every portion of valley or hill or 
 mountain on which there is any soil whatever. A 
 luxuriant growth of grass spreads over the glades in 
 the forest, the park openings, the creek bottoms 
 and hill sides, such as only grown on the richest 
 soil. Splendid grass, pure water, excellent shelter 
 from storms render some portions thoroughly fitted 
 
 for first-class stock farms, which before many years 
 will furnish beef, mutton, butter, cheese and wool 
 for a nation. The outlying plains country offers im- 
 mense advantages to the large stock owner. — 
 The state of agriculture in some of the cos. shows a 
 very rapid improvement. Iu the country around Bis- 
 marck, for instance, 25 bush, of wheat per acre were 
 raised iu 1880; oats, 50 bush, per acre; corn, 105 
 bush. On some land 150 to 300 bush, of potatoes 
 grew, and all the vegetables are abundant and of re- 
 markable fine flavor. The wheat is of superior qual- 
 ity and makes good flour. The chief agricultural 
 pi-od. of Dakota for the year 1880 were 16,156 bush, 
 of barley, 90,852 of corn, 2,217,132 of oats, 24,359 of 
 rye, and 2,830,280 of wheat. — The manufacturing in- 
 dustry is yet undeveloped. There is, however, abun- 
 dant water-power, which i nvites and will facilitate 
 the establishment of manufacturers. Iu 1883, 7 lines 
 of railroads had 1,638 m. in operation; other lines 
 were in process of construction, and still others pro- 
 jected. — The settlements in the territory are con- 
 fined to three distinct localities. The settlements in 
 S.E. Dakota, iu which is the present capital, extend 
 from Nebraska, mainly in a N. direction, up the Big 
 Sioux, the Vermilion and the James Rs. They are 
 spreading along the border of N.W. Iowa and S.W. 
 Minnesota, as far N. as Kampeska lake and as far 
 W. as the James R. The settlements in the N. 
 part of the Territory are along the W. bank of the 
 Red River of the North, from Richland co. opposite 
 Breckeuridge to Pembina, on the line of the British 
 possessions, crossing the Northern Pacific railroad 
 at Fargo, and extending W. along the line of that 
 road to Bismarck. The other settlement is in the 
 Black Hills, which now has a pop. estimated at 25,- 
 000. These three sections of Dakota are not only re- 
 mote from each other, but their interests are not 
 identical. A bill was introduced into Congress in 
 1881 providing for the division of the territory by a 
 line through its centre E. and W., the S. portion to 
 be admitted as a State into the LTnion, the N. part to 
 be a Territory under the name of Pembina. No con- 
 elusive action was taken upon the measure. — Da- 
 kota has the usual territory government — a gov- 
 ernor and executive officers, and a legislature of 13 
 councilmen and 26 representatives. Abundant provi- 
 sion has been made for all interests of education. 
 The Indian reservation in Dakota, W. of the Mis- 
 souri R., contains 56,000 sq. m., and is chiefly 
 inhabited by the Sioux. The territory is divided 
 into 95 cos., of which only a part are organ- 
 ized. The principal towns are Bismarck, Central 
 City, Deadwood, Fargo, Lead City, and Yankton 
 (the cap.). — Dakota, which formed a part of the 
 Louisiana purchase of 1803, was organized as a Ter- 
 ritory March 2, 1861. The first permanent settle- 
 ments were made in 1859. In the summer of 1863 
 the settlers suffered greatly from hostile bands of 
 Sioux. Gen. Sully, with 2,000 troops, routed the 
 savages at Whitestone in June, and since then they 
 have been held in check. The first legislature met 
 on the 17th of March, 1862. Large discoveries of 
 gold in the Black Hills were reported during 1874-5. 
 Negotiations carried on with the chiefs who visited 
 Washington in the summer of 1875 were unsuccess- 
 ful ; but past experience teaches that the extin- 
 guishment of the Indian title to the lands is only a 
 question of a little time.— Pop. in 1860, 4.837 ; in 
 1870, 14,181; in 1880, 135,177 (of whom 82,296 males, 
 and 52,882 females ; 83,382 natives, and 51,795 of 
 foreign birth ; 133,147 whites, 401 colored, 238 Chi- 
 nese, and 1,391 Indians). Emigration has been of 
 late and continues to be so large, that the pop. 
 in 1883 can be safely estimated at 250,000.

 Dayton, 0., a city, the cap. of Montgomery co., 
 on the'E. bank of the Great Miami, which is there 
 joined by the Mad, 46 m. N. of Cincinnati, and 135 in. 
 S. of Toledo. The Miami Canal, which connects the 
 Ohio R. with Lake Erie, passes by the town ; and 
 this means of communication, along with that of the 
 8 RRs. of which it is the terminus, has contributed 
 greatly to the prosperity of the place. The city is 
 very regularly laid out, and the houses and public 
 editiees are better than in many other W. cities, part- 
 ly owing to the comparatively moderate price of the 
 white limestone, or marble, which abounds in its 
 neighborhood. The principal public buildings are 
 the county court-house — designed after the Parthe- 
 non at Athens, and erected at a cost of about 8150,- 
 000 — and the market-house, containing within its 
 walls a city hall and the council chamber. There are, 
 
 besides numerous churches, a high school, and the fe- 
 male Cooper Academy ; also a public library, 3 nat. 
 and 4 other banks, 8 local insurance companies, and 
 27 newspapers and periodcials (of which 5 daily). Of 
 charitable institutions the orphan asylum, the alms- 
 house, and a lunatic asylum may be mentioned, and 
 in the vicinity there is the Central National Soldiers' 
 Home. A considerable manufacturing industry is 
 carried on, which is facilitated by a copious supply 
 of water conveyed from the Mad. There are several 
 machine shops, and works for the manufacture of 
 agricultural implements, railway carriages, paper, 
 cotton, &c. Dayton was first settled in 1796, and was 
 incorporated as a city in 1841. Pop in 1850, 10,977 ; in

 Delaware, a river which rises by 2 branches 
 on the W. side of Catskill Mts., New York. The Mo- 
 hawk or main branch rises from a small lake near 
 the border of Schoharie co., in 42° 45' N. lat., at an 
 elevation of 1,886 ft. above tide water, and flows S.W. 
 across Delaware co., nearly 50 m. to the E. line of 
 Broome co., within 10 m. Susquehanna R., and turning 
 suddenly it pursues a S.E. course of 5 m. to the Pa. 
 line, in 42° N. lat., 8 m. below which it receives the 
 Popachton branch from the S.E. The river then pro- 
 ceeds in a winding course S.E. for 60m., to the N.W.

 comer of N.J. in 41° 24' N. lat., at Carpenter's point, 
 at the mouth of Neversink R. It then turns to the S. 
 W.. along the base of the Kittaning chain of moun- 
 tains 35 m., when it passes this mountain by what is 
 called the " water gap," which is considered a great 
 curiosity. The distance through the mountains is 
 about 2 m., and the banks rise in a rugged and lofty 
 wall, 1.600 ft. high, precipitously from the water's 
 edge, leaving at the S.E. entrance, scarcely room for 
 a road, overhung with immense masses of rock. The 
 passage, however, widens toward the N.W., and the 
 river contains some beautiful and fertile islands. The 
 view of the " gap " is highly picturesque, and the 
 river here has a great depth. From this it pursues a 
 S.E. and then a S.W. course to Eastou, where it re- 
 ceives the Lehigh, a large branch from the W. A lit- 
 tle below Easton the river passes through S. Mt. and 
 pursues a S.E. course to Trenton, 60 m. below Easton, 
 having in that distance 25 rapids, with a total fall of 
 165 ft. These rapids are navigable at high water. At 
 Trenton is a fall which obstructs navigation, and 
 below which it enters tide water. The river below 
 Trenton turns to the S.W., until near the bay, which 
 enters the ocean in aS.E. direction. Five miles below 
 Philadelqhia it receives Schuylkill R., a large branch 
 from the N.W. The whole course of the river from 
 its source to its entrance into the bay is about 300 m., 
 and to its entrance into the ocean, 375 m. It is navi- 
 gable for ships of the line to Philadelphia, by the 
 course of the river and bay, 120 m. from the ocean, 
 and 45 m. from its entrance into the bay; and for 
 sloops 35 m. farther, or 155 from the ocean, to Trenton. 
 Above the falls at Trenton it is navigable for boats of 
 8 or 9 tons, 100 m. The Delaware is connected with 
 Hudson R. by the Delaware and Hudson Caual, which 
 commences at a dam in the Delaware, near the mouth 
 of the Lackawaxeu Creek, and extends toEddyville 
 on Roundout kill, a few miles from its entrance into 
 Hudson R., and by the Morris Canal, which leaves the 
 Delaware opposite to Easton, Pa., and terminates at 
 Jersey City, opposite to N. York city. A vast amount 
 of coal is transported on these canals. There is also a 
 canal from Delaware city, 42 m. below Philadelphia, 
 to Back Creek, a tributary of Elk Creek, which falls 
 into Chesapeake Bay. This canal is 14 m. long, and 
 admits of the passage of considerable vessels. Dela- 
 ware Bay, at the mouth of Delaware R., is a large arm 
 of the sea, 75 m. long and 20 m. across its mouth, be- 
 tween Cape May on theN., and Cape Henlopen on the 
 S. In the middle it is 30 m. wide. The navigation is 
 difficult aud dangerous, having many shoals. Below 
 Port Penn, 70 m. from the ocean, the bay has no safe 
 natural harbor ; nor is there one for several hundred 
 miles S. of New York. To remedy this inconvenience, 
 the federal government has erected a magnificent 
 Breakwater, within Cape Henlopen. The anchorage 
 ground or roadstead is in a cove, directly W. of the 
 cape. The E. or seaward end of the Breakwater, rests 
 on the S.endof an extensive shoal called the "shears," 
 abt. 2 m. N. of the shore at the cape. The Breakwater 
 consists of a stone dyke or pier, 3,600 ft. long, lving 
 E. S. E. and W. N. W. At the distance of 1,050 ft. 
 from the W. end is another dyke, 1,500 ft. long, form- 
 ing with it an angle of 146° 15', which is designed 
 especially as an ice-breaker. The whole length of the 
 two dykes is 5,100 ft., and 900,000 cubic' yards of 
 basalt or granite rocks, weighing from a ton to up- 
 ward of three tons each, were consumed in its con- 
 struction. The depth of water is from 4 to 6 fathoms, 
 in a surface of over half a sq. m. The estimated cost 
 of this great work was 82,216,950. 
 —an E.State,bounded N.bv Pa., on the N.E. and E. bv 
 Delaware R. and Bay and"the Atlantic Ocean, on the 
 S. and \V. by Md. It is situated between lat. 38° 28 
 and 39° 50' N. and Ion. 75° 5' and 75° 50' W. It is 93 
 m. long from N. to S. and varies in width from 12 to 
 38 m.; area, 1,960 sq. m. The boundary line between 
 
 Pa. and Del., is the segment of a circle, with a radius 
 of 12 m. the centre of which is at New Castle. — The N. 
 section is of a primary rocky formation. Hills of a 
 beautifully rounded outline rise to a height of several 
 hundred feet above tide water. The creeks run through 
 deeply cleft valleys with rounded or abrupt rocky 
 sides. Below this primary region is a comparatively 
 level country. A table-land not more than 75 feet high 
 extends through the peninsula and slopes gently to- 
 ward the E. and W. In the swamps and morasses 
 several small streams have their rise, which empty 
 into the Delaware and the Chesapeake. Along the' 
 Md. line is a cypress swamp containing 50,000 acres 
 and furnishing valuable timber ; it is infested with 
 poisonous reptiles. — The Delaware R., navigable for 
 the largest vessels, washes the E. shore. Brandywino 
 Creek rises in Chester co., Pa., and unites with 
 Christiana Creek near Wilmington. It is 40 m. long 
 and navigable 13 m. for vessels drawing six feet of 
 water. Duck Creek forms the boundary betweeKent 
 and New Castle cos., and the Mispilion R., the 
 boundary between Kent and Sussex. The Murderkill, 
 Indian and Broadkill Rs., flow into Delaware Bay; 
 the Rocomoke,Nauticoke and Choptank Rs., flow in- 
 to Chesapeake. — Along the Delaware Rs.,are rich clay 
 lands. Newcastle co. contains almost every variety 
 of soil to be found E. of the Alleghany Mts. — jagged 
 hills, broad plains, extensive meadows, swamps'and 
 marshes. A green sand stratum, averaging 21 feet in 
 thickness, furnishes an abundance of marl for fer- 
 tilization. In the N. part is a clayey soil, and a veg- 
 etable mould in the marsh-lands. Sandy soils prevail 
 extensively in Kent aud Sussex. Hundreds of acres 
 of the swamp and submerged lands along the Del- 
 aware R., have been reclaimed by drainage. The 
 climate is mild, being tempered by the sea breezes 
 which sweep across the whole peninsula.Observations 
 at Newark show a mean annual temperature of 53°. 
 Delaware scenery is lovely and varied. The banks of 
 the Brandywine near Wilmington are romantic and 
 wild. The chalybeate springs are much visited by 
 northern invalids. Lewes is a celebrated bathing re- 
 sort. Of public improvements the great breakwater 
 built by the U. States at a cost of 82.000,000 and the 
 Delaware and Chesapeake Canal are the most notable, 
 the cutting for the canal, 90 feet perpendicular in 
 some places, being the deepest in the world for such 
 a purpose. — The principal agricultural products for 
 the year 1880 were 3,894,264 lbs. of corn, 378,508 of 
 oats, and 1,175,272 of wheat. Delaware produces be- 
 sides bay, sorghum molasses and honey, and large 
 quantities of fine fruit and vegetables. A large in- 
 come is derived from the wonderful peach orchards, 
 growers being specially favored by soil, climate and 
 railroad facilities, which are constantly being ex- 
 tended. The peach crop in 1880 amounted to 4,109.- 
 000 baskets. Canning and drying fruits exceed all 
 other industries. The entire fruit district in 1880 was 
 29,500 acres. In that year the live stock on farms 
 comprised 21.933 horses ; 3,931 mules; 5,818 working 
 oxen ; 27,284 milch cows : 20,450 other cattle ; 21,967 
 sheep ; and 48,186 swine. The manufacturing industry 
 of Delaware is of great importance and mostly car- 
 ried on in the northern part of the State and the city 
 of Wilmington. According to the census of 1880 there 
 were in the State 746 manuf. establishments ; capital 
 invested 815,655,822, hands employed, 12.638, wages 
 paid during the year 81,267. 349. value, of materials 812,- 
 828,461, value of products 820,514,438. The State had 8 
 cotton factories with 46,188 spindles and 822 looms, em- 
 ploying 695 hands, andusing 7,512 bales of cotton. Wil- 
 mington is largely interested in making steam engines, 
 railroad cars, machinery and gunpowder, and enjoys 
 peculiarad vantages for building iron ships. The foreign 
 commerce at Delaware is important. In 1882 the State 
 had 165 vessels of 16,66^ tons in aggregate ; 29 vessels 
 of 10,558 tons were built ; and there were 278 m. of

 railroad in operation. — The State is divided into 
 school districts, and the voters of each district decide 
 all questions relating to the schools. In 1880 the num- 
 ber of schools was 393 ; pupils, 26,672 ; school pop- 
 ulation, 35,649. Delaware college, at Newark, has 
 classical, scientific and agricultural departments. 
 The Wesleyan female college, at Wilmington, is a 
 flourishing institution. — The State is divided into 3 
 cos., viz.: New Castle in the N., Kent in the middle 
 and Sussex in the S. ; and these are subdivided into 
 hundreds. Wilmington is the principal city, and 
 Dover is the cap. — The legislative authority is vested 
 in a general assembly, which consists of a senate, 
 having 9 members and a house of representatives, 
 having 21 members. The legislature holds biennial 
 sessions. The governor servesl'or 4years. The judicial 
 power is vested in a court of errors and appeals, 
 superior court, court of chancery, orphans' court, 
 court of o er and terminer, court of general sessions 
 of the peace and jail delivery, register's court, and 
 justice of the peace. The State sends 1 representative 
 to the Federal Congress and has 3 electoral votes. 
 There is no State prison; criminals are confined in 
 the countv jails. The whipping-post and the pillory 
 are still in vogue. The State debt in 1880 was $869,- 
 000 ; the val. of taxable prop, was $62,419,119.— Del- 
 aware was one of the original 13 States, and the first 
 to ratify the Federal Constitution, which it did by a 
 uuauimous vote, December 7, 1787. On the 28th of 
 August, 1609, Henry Hudson discovered the Dela- 
 ware R., which, however, afterward took its name 
 from Lord Delaware, who entered it in ]610. In 
 1682 William Penn obtained a grant of the territory, 
 and governed it as a part of Pennsylvania. It was al- 
 lowed a separate general assembly in 1703. The amen- 
 ded Constitution of 1831 is still the fundamental 
 law of the State.— Pop. in 1790, 59,094 (of which 8,887

 Dela wares, a tribe of Indians belonging to 
 the Algonquin family, called in their own language 
 Lenni-Lenape, lived originally on the banks of the 
 Delaware and Schuylkill, but are now mostly found 
 in the Indian Territory, in the valley of the Verdigris. 
 They were, according to tradition, a bold, powerful 
 race, but were overcome by the Iroquois, who com- 
 pelled them in 1744 to leave their original settlement.

 Some of them removed to Ohio about 17S0. They 
 were friendly toward the U. S., and formed seveial 
 treaties with them. They next crossed the Mississippi 
 and settled in Kansas. They are now for the most 
 part removed to their new iandsin the Indian Terri- 
 tory, and in part incorporated with the Cherokees.

 Des Moines, Iowa, the largest river in the 
 State formed by the junction of two branches, known 
 as the E. and W. forks, which rise in a chain of small 
 lakes in S.W. Minn, and flowing S.E. unites in 
 Humboldt co., Iowa. From the junction it flows S.E. 
 through the middle of the State, and joins the Miss- 
 issippi at the N.E. corner, about 4 m. below Keokuk. 
 In its course of 300 m. the Des Moines drains 10,000 
 sq. m. in Iowa, passing through an undulating, fer- 
 tile region, interspersed with tracts of prairie, rich in 
 coal, and abounding in timber. There are many ex- 
 cellent mill sites along its banks. The fall from Fort 
 Dodge, Webster co., to Ottumwa, Wapello co., is 2 
 ft. 4 in. per mile, and from Ottumwa to its mouth, 1 
 ft. 11 in. per mile. Many towns have sprung up along 
 its banks, among which is Des Moines, the State cap. 
 The principal tributaries from the West are the Rac- 
 coon, or Coon R. and North, Middle, and South rivers; 
 the largest E. branch is the Boone, which rises in 
 Kossuth and Hancock co. 
 
 — a S.W. co., bordering on Illinois, washed by the 
 Mississippi on the E., bounded S. by Skunk R., 
 and drained by Flint Creek; area, 408 sq. m. Lime- 
 stone and Anthracite are the principal mineral pro- 
 ductions. The surface is occupied by prairies and 
 tracts of timber. The soil is fertile and well cultivated. 
 Three lines of RRs. traverse the co. The chief prod, 
 in 1880 were 263,697 bush. of wheat, 2,812,975 of corn,

 — a city, the cap. of the State and of Polk co., situa- 
 ted on the Des Moines R. at the mouth of the Rac- 
 coon, 358 m. W. of Chicago and 142 m. E. of Omaha 
 by the C.,R.I.&P.RR. The city is laid out in quadri- 
 lateral form, extending 4 m. E. and W. and 2 m. N. 
 and S. The Des Moines, flowing from the north, di- 
 vides it a little E. of the centre, and the portion W. 
 of this river, commonly called the " West Side," is 
 again divided S. of its centre by tne Raccoon. From 
 the confluence of the rivers, on either side, the ground 
 rises gradually toward the city limits to a height of 
 about 160 ft. Enclosed by the rivers on the S. and E. 
 is a plateau about 1 m. long and J m. wide, with an 
 average elevation of 15 ft. above high water, where 
 are situated the post office, court-house, and city 
 offices, the principal depots and hotels, and the 
 greater portion of the business houses. On the high- 
 er ground beyond are some of the finest private resi- 
 dences. E. of Des Moines R. is another business lo- 
 cality. The portion of the West Side S. of Raccoon 
 R. is known as " South Park." Capital square, E. of

 manding a fine view. The new State-house, a very fine 
 building, was erected at a cost of nearly 83,000,000. 
 The State library contains some 20,000 volumes. The 
 city has 20 or more churches; 2nat. and 4 other 
 banks ; U.S. court-house and post-office, built of 
 marble and costing $250,000 : a State arsenal ; a large 
 county court-house ; and it has complete gasworks,

 residences, and other public improvements to be 
 found in first-class modern cities. Two daily, 12 wkly, 
 and 2 monthly papers are published here. Mines of 
 excellent coal are extensively worked in the vicinity. 
 Numbers of manufactories of various kinds are in 
 operation. Des Moines was laid out in 1846, and in- 
 corporated as the town of Fort Des Moines in 1851. A 
 city charter, giving it its present name, was granted 
 in 1857, and the same year it became the cap. of the 
 State. Pop. in 1860, 3,963 ; in 18T0, 12,035 ; in 1880, 22-

 Detroit, Mich., a liver or strait through which 
 the waters of the upper lakes, Superior, Huron, Mich- 
 igan, and St. Clair, are discharged into Lake Erie. 
 Its length from Lake St. Clair to Lake Erie, is abt. 
 28 m. At its outlet from Lake St. Clair, it is over 1 
 m. wide. Opposite to Detroit, abt. 8 m. below, it is f 
 m. wide. Its course to Detroit is a little S. of W.; but 
 here it makes a curve, and pursues a more S. direc- 
 tion. Abt. 5 m. below Detroit, the river is divided 
 Into two channels, by Grand Turkey Island, and soon 
 widens to 3 or 4 m., and continues of this width for 
 16 or 17 m., until it opens into the N.W. angle of 
 Lake Erie. There are many islands in the river, ren- 
 dering the navigation somewhat intricate; neverthe- 
 less, vessels of considerable burden can be carried 
 through into Lake St. Clair. The principal channel 
 is on the E. side, between Boisblanc Island and the 
 Canada shore. The principal towns on its banks are 
 Detroit and Brownstown on the American shore, and 
 on the Canada shore Sandwich and Amherstburg. It 
 receives from Michigan the River Rouge, abt. 1 m. 
 above Grand Turkey Island, and the Huron, at the 
 point of connection with Lake Erie. From Canada, 
 the only stream worthy of notice is the Canard, which 
 enters the Detroit abt. 3£ m. above Amherstburg.

 S.W. Toronto, Canada, by G.T. of C.RR. Detroit 
 with its suburbs stretches abt. 5 m. alongthe river and 
 the central part extends for abt. 2 m. back from the 
 shore. The streets generally cross each other at right 
 angles, and are from 50 to 100 ft. wide. They are for 
 the most part ornamented with rows of trees. A 
 number of avenues, from 100 to 200 ft. wide, diverge 
 from the Grand Circus, a spacious park, semi-circular 
 in form, which is divided into two quadrants by 
 Woodward avenue. The chief building is the city 
 hall, one of the finest structures of the kind in the 
 West. Built of sandstone, and designed after the Italian 
 style cf architecture, it measures 200 ft. long and 90 ft.

 55 ft. high and abt. 20 ft. in diameter at the base. It 
 is surrounded by a colossal bronze statue of an Indian 
 girl representing Michigan in defense of the Union. 
 The commercial facilities of Detroit are very exten- 
 sive. The Detroit R., is a connecting link in the 
 great chain of lake navigation ,aud affords the best har- 
 bor on the lakes. The city is the centre of an extensive 
 railroad system, and from 10 to 13 daily lines of 
 steamers run to various points on the lakes. There is a 
 considerable foreign commerce with Canada, the im- 
 ports in 1882 amounting to $3,232,230 and the exports 
 to $1,854,314 ; 3,227 vessels of 227,335 tons entered and 
 3,250 of 232,220 cleared in the foreign trade ; 2,592 of 
 1,010,020 entered and 2,744 of 1,043,848 tons cleared 
 in the coast-wise trade. At beginning of 1883 the port 
 of Detroit possessed 155 sailing vessels of 34,945 tons, 
 136 steamers of 43,600 tons and 21 barges of 4,383 
 tons. The large quantities of produce, chiefly from 
 Michigan, passing eastward through the city by rail 
 and water, give to Detroit an extensive domestic com- 
 merce. The rnanuf. industries of the city are exten- 
 sive and important. The workiug of iron is carried 
 on in numerous blast furnaces, foundries, and other 
 establishments. Twelve saw-mills annually cut from 
 45,000,000 to 50,000,000 ft. of lumber ; and 26 brick- 
 yards make from 55,000,000 to 60,000,000 bricks a year. 
 The extensive Pullman car works are situated here; 
 also one of the seven pin factories in the U. States. 
 The Detroit copper-smelting works annually produce 
 over $2,000,000 worth ot ingot copper from Lake Su- 
 
 Eerior ore. There are also 9 large flour-mills, abt. 60 
 reweries, malt houses and distilleries, 20 tanneries, 
 a large number of tobacco and cigar factories, several 
 of boots and shoes, 1 of orcans, 1 of white lead, 2 of 
 chemicals, 4 ship-yards, 3 large dry-docks, &c. Detroit 
 has 10 lines of street railway with more than 45 m. 
 of track intersecting the city in every direction. It is 
 divided into 11 wards, atd has a metropolitan police 
 of 100 members, a fire department with 7 steam fire- 
 engines, and ample supplies of water from the river. 
 There are abt. 65 churches, 14 asylums and hospitals, 
 22 public schools, 4 public libraries, the largest con-

 long and 10 m. wide. A large portion of it is covered 
 with dense forests of juniper, cypress, white cedar, 
 and gum trees, from which lumber is exported. Near 
 the middle of the swamp is Lake Drummond, which 
 has an area of abt. 6 sq. m. and abounds in fish. A 
 canal through the Dismal Swamp opens steam com- 
 munication between Chesapeake Bay and Albemarle 
 Sound. The Dismal Swamp is remarkable for its con- 
 siderable elevation above the surrounding country. 
 The water of this swamp, known as "juniper water," 
 is of a dark reddish color, and is carried in large quan- 
 tities to Norfolk and Hampton Roads for shipping 
 purposes. It is highly prized for its excellent quality, 
 and is not liable to become corrupt by keeping.

 District of 4JoI»anal>ia, a territory, con- 
 taining the cap. of the U. States. It is situated upon 
 the N. bank of the Potomac R., 295 m. from the At- 
 lantic Ocean, lat. 38° 53' 38" N., Ion. 77° 3' 6" W. It 
 is separated from Va. by the river, and is bounded 
 upon three sides by Md. It was originally erected 
 under a law of congress of July, 1790, for the es- 
 tablishment of a permanent seat of government. 
 This law authorized the acquisition by the U. States 
 of a territory not exceeding ten miles square, at the 
 confluence of the Potomac and its eastern branch. A 
 part of the territory thus designated was ceded to the 
 U .-States by Va., and included the city of Alexandria, 
 and a part by Md., including the city of Georgetown. 
 By a law of congress of July, 1S46, that portion of the 
 district which had been ceded to the U. States by Va., 
 was ceded back to that State. The present area of the 
 district is 64 sq. m. Under the law of 1790, three com- 
 missioners were appointed to receive the cession of the 
 district, and to lay out the city of Washington, and 
 erect the public buildings for the reception of the 
 Federal Government. The corner-stone of the Capi- 
 tol was laid by Washington, September 18, 1793. On 
 .the first Monday of December, 1800, the removal of 
 the Government from Philadelphia was effected. The 
 district is under the control of congress, and its mu- 
 nicipal affairs are regulated by three commissioners 
 appointed by the president and senate, by virtue of 
 a law of 1874. The courts are constituted by act of 
 congress, and the judges appointed by the president 
 and" senate. By the law of 1874, the municipalities 
 of Georgetown and Washington were abolished, and 
 the elective franchise throughout the di.'tiict sup- 
 pressed. It has no representative in congress. — The 
 surface of the district is diversified by hill and dale, 
 is well wooded with oak, maple, chestnut, hickory, 
 and other trees, is productive when well cultivated, 
 and affords at several points, extended and beauti- 
 ful views of the valley of the Potomac. The climate is 
 moist and warm, and there is much local miasma, 
 lu the summer and autumn fevers prevail in some 
 parts, especially in the low grounds near the Poto- 
 mac. The staple prod, before 1800 was tobacco, the 
 culture of which has of late years been abandoned 
 for grain, Indian corn, hay, fruit, and vegetables, all 
 of which are produced iu great abundance, and sold 
 at renumerative prices in the markets of Washington 
 and Georgetown. The shad and herring fisheries of 
 the Potomac yield a large revenue. The Chesapeake 
 and Ohio Canal connects Georgetown, the head of 
 tide water on the Potomac, with Cumberland, the 
 centre of the bituminous coal region of the State of 
 Md. It is 180 m. in length, and "transports 1,000,000 
 tons of coal per annum. The district is intersected by 
 the Washington and Metropolitan branches of the 
 B.&O.RR., and by the B.&P.RR., and is connected 
 with the S. by rail to Alexandria, the N. terminus 
 of the Virginia railway system. There are well-man- 
 aged lines of steamboats running to Norfolk, Balti- 
 more, and New York, the last freighted mainly with 
 flour from the district mills. The coal tonnage of 
 the Potomac exceeds 600,000 tons annually from the 
 port of Georgetown, which is the port of entry for 
 the District of Columbia. The commerce is almost 
 entirely domestic. In 1880, according to census re- 
 turns, there were in the district 971 manuf. establish- 
 ments, employing 7.146 hands, of whom 5,496 were 
 males above 16, 1.389 females above 16, and 261 
 youth ; capital invested §5,552,526 ; wasres paid dur- 
 ing the year §3,924,612 ; value of materials $5,365,- 
 400; of products $11,882,316— consisting mainly of 
 flour, building materials, furniture, clothing, and 
 iron. Since 1793 the U. States Government has ex- 
 pended §60,000,000 in the erection of public buildings 
 
 and improvement of public grounds iu the district. 
 — In the extent and excellence of arrangements for 
 both public and private education few places excel 
 this. There are 125 select schools. The public schools 
 number 390, enrolling 25,000 pupils and employing 4U0 
 teachers, with an average salary of §650. Those de- 
 signed for the colored population are reported as re- 
 markably well conducted and successful. Many of 
 their buildings are large and handsome. There are 
 100 schools for this class, enrolling 7,000 pupils, and 
 employing 120 teachers. The total expenditure for 
 public schools is abt. §370,000 a year, and the value 
 of school property §1,000,000. There are also several 
 higher institutions of learning, among which may be 
 mentioned : the Georgetown university, the oldest 
 Roman Catholic college in America, which has 35 
 professors and a library of rare books and manu- 
 scripts; the Columbian university, established by 
 Baptists in 1814 ; and the Howard university. The Na- 
 tional deaf-mute college, the only collegiate insti- 
 tution for the deaf mutes in the world, has 8 pro- 
 fessors, ami gives a regular collegiate course of in- 
 struction. There are in the district 130 public libra- 
 ries, with an aggregate of 500,000 volumes. The con- 
 gressional library contains 320,000 volumes, with 
 an immense collection of pamphlets. Copies of every 
 work secured by copyright are required to be de- 
 posited in it. — There are 120 church edifices in the 
 district, of which the Baptists have 25, the Metho- 
 dists 42, the Roman Catholics 14, the Episcopalians 
 20, the Presbyterians 14, and the Lutherans 8. The 
 U. States navy yard in Washington is one of the 
 most complete in its appointments of all the dock 
 vards in the country. In 1882 the total funded debt 
 bf the district was $21.S92,750. Pop. in 1800, 8,144 ;

 ■>BB'rsiBBK«» Col., a city<f>. La Plata co., 172 m. 
 S.W. Denver by the San Juan div. of the D.&R.G. 
 RR., in a smiling valley of abt. 2 m in width, risiug 
 in gentle steps, or meses, on either sides, back to su- 
 perb bluffs, the loftiest towering to a height of from 
 1,500 to 2,000 ft. It has every advantage to render it 
 the great commercial and smelting centre of a large 
 area of country, embracing the entire San Juan min- 
 ing region, S E. Utah, N.E. Arizona, and N.W. New 
 Mexico. New mines are being discovered constantly, 
 some within 2 or 3 m. of the city, and but a very small 
 portion of the entire S. slope of the Sierra Madre, 
 among the foot hills of which Durango may be said 
 to be located, has even been prospected. The water- 
 power of the Animas R. and other streams in this 
 vicinity, is unsurpassed in the State. The agricultural 
 resources of all the valleys running S. and S.W. from 
 this range are unstinted, and the meses and foothills 
 afford the finest possible grazing. This wonderful 
 city, first settled in 1881, had in 1882 abt. 200 business 
 houses, 1 bank, 1 daily and 4 wkly papers, 2 theatres, 
 6 hotels, 2 school buildings, and several churches 
 completed and in process of construction. Estimated

 East River, N. Y., a strait connecting New 
 York Bay with Long Island Sound, about 18 m. long, 
 and between New York and Brooklyn about -J m. 
 wide. It leaver the sound at a point called Throg's 
 Neck, where the is a light-house with a fixed light, 
 and where Fort Schuyler defends the N.E. approach 
 to New York ; and it enters the bay S.E. of Manhat- 
 tan Island, between the metropolis aud Brooklyn. It 
 also communicates with the Hudson by a narrow 
 channel called Harlem R. and Spuyten Duyvel Creek, 
 which separate Manhattan Island from the mainland. 
 It has a rapid current caused by the tide from the 
 Atlantic, which, gathering force as it flows W. into 
 the narrowest part of the sound, reaches its greatest 
 height in the East R., arrives at New York three- 
 quarters of an hour earlier than that which rises in 
 the bay, and drives upward along the E. shore of the 
 Hudson many miles in advance of the tide on the 
 W. shore. The East R. is navigable by vessels of 
 the largest size, and is crossed by numerous steam- 
 ferries, and also by a noble suspension bridge be- 
 tween the cities of New York and Brooklyn, 
 which is still (1882) in process of construction. The 
 central span across the river is 1,595 ft. long, aud 
 the whole length of the bridge will be 6,000 ft. East 
 R. contains several islands, and has a pass called 
 Hellgate, 7 m. from New York Bay, where a ledge 
 of rocks, projecting for some distance from the Long 
 Island shore under the channel, aud rising at certain 
 points almost to the surface of the water, formed at 
 times such a seething and eddying current as to send 
 terror t > the hardiest of its navigators. The U. States 
 Government in 1870 decided to free the channel of 
 these obstructions, and engineers under the direc- 
 tion of Gen. Newton were engaged for 6 years dril- 
 ling the principal rocks and chargiug them with 
 nitro-glycerine, aud in the summer of 1876 the whole 
 mass was exploded. Excavations for another explo- 
 sion are in progress, while dredges are busy remov- 
 ing the d/ibris of the first explosion. The channel, 
 however, is now sufficiently clear to be safely navi- 
 gated at all times.

 — a city and port of entry, cap. of Erie co., and the 
 most important manuf. and commercial city of N.W. 
 Pa., beautifully situated on Lake Erie, nearly mid- 
 way between Buffalo and Cleveland, 117 m. N. of 
 Pittsburgh. This city is a very extensive iron manuf. 
 center, and as a residence place, has no superior on 
 the lakes. It stands upon an elevated bluff command- 
 ing a fine view of the lakes. The streets are broad, 
 and the residence portion of Erie is very handsome. 
 State street is the principal business thoroughfare. 
 The city coutains several parks. Amoug the public 
 buildings are the post-office, the custom-house, and 
 the opera-house. The L.S.&M.S., the Philadelphia 
 and Erie div. of the Penu., and E.&P.RRs., afford 
 communication with Buffalo, Philadelphia, Pitts- 
 burgh and the West. The harbor, which has been arti- 
 ficially improved, is 34 m. long, over 1 m. wide, and 
 from 9 to 25 ft. deep, and is protected by Presque Isle, 
 formerly a peninsula, lying in front of the city. At the 
 entrance are 2 light-houses, and there are several 
 large docks. In 1880 there were entered and cleared 
 in the coastwise trade 2,024 vessels of 1,565,183 tons"; 
 the value of imports from, and export s to Canada were 
 small ; the enrolled tonnage of the port was 28,247. 
 The principal articles of shipment are lumber, coal, 
 iron ore, and petroleum. The leading manuf. are of 
 iron, embraciug stoves, steam-engins, machinery, 
 car wheeels, and car works, besides which there are 
 various other manuf. Erie has 4 nat. banks, aud 5 
 other and savings banks ; 3 daily and 11 wkly papers, 
 and 4 insurance companies, an academy, marine hos- 
 pital, 29 churches, and abt. 50 public schools. It is 
 divided into 6 wards, and is governed by a mayor, 
 and a select council of 2 members, and a common 
 council of 3 members for each ward. It is lighted 
 with gas, and is supplied from the lake with water, 
 which is forced by powerful engines to the top of a 
 tower 200 ft. high, whence it is distributed through 
 the mains. Erie was laid out in 1795, and received 
 its city character in 1851. Pop. in 1860, 9,419 ; in 1870, 
 19,646 ; in 1880, 27,730.

 Erie Canal, the most important, as well as the 
 largest, canal in the U.S., extends from Buffalo to 
 Albany, N.Y., and is 363 m. long. It was completed 
 in 1825 at a cost of $7,602,000. Its original width was 
 40 feet at the surface, with a depth of 4 feet ; but the 
 canal has been subsequeutly so enlarged that the sur- 
 face-width is 70 feet, the bottom-width 42 feet, and 
 the depth 7 feet. The commercial importance of this 
 canal is very great. It is chiefly employed for trans-

 porting grain and such other bulky articles as do not

 Erie Lake, one- of the Ave great lakes drained 
 by the St. Lawrence, lies between 41° 22' and 42° 52' 
 N. lat, and between 78° 23' W. Ion. It has the States 
 of Ohio, Pennsylvania and New York on the S. and 
 S.E. border, and the fertile peninsula of Ontario, 
 Canada, on the N. It has an elliptical shape, and is 
 about 265 m. long, and varies in its breadth from 10 
 to 63 m. It receives at its W. end, through Detroit 
 R. or strait, the discharge of water from the great 
 upper lakes, and discharges its own waters through 
 Niagara R. Its surface is elevated 565 feet above tide- 
 water at Albany, 52 feet below lake Michigan and 
 Huron, and 322 ft. above the level of Lake Ontario. 
 Its waters are more shallow than those of the great 
 lakes. The greatest depth which has been obtained 
 by sounding, is 270 ft. Its mean depth is not over 120 
 ft. It receives from Canada but a few small streams, 
 the principal of which is the Ouse or Welland, near 
 its E. extremity. From Michigan it receives the Hu- 
 ron and Raisin ; from Ohio, the Maumee, Portage. 
 Sandusky, Vermillion, Black, Cuyahoga, Grand, Ash- 
 tabula and Conueaut ; and from Pennsylvania, Elk, 
 and other small creeks ; and from N. York, the Cat- 
 taraugus and Buffalo creeks. The rivers of lake Erie 
 have bars at their mouths, rarely affording more than 
 eight ft. water. A little N.W. of the mouth of San- 
 dusky bay, is a group of islands called North, Middle 
 and South Bass islands. In the N. part of the S. is- 
 land, is Put-in bay, which has twelve ft. of water, 
 and affords the best harbor on the lake, and is eas- 
 ily accessible. Into this harbor Commodore Perry 
 brought his prizes, after the battle of Lake Erie. The 
 battle was fought a little to the N.W. of this, Sept. 
 10, 1813. The best harbors on the S. shore, are San- 
 dusky in 0., Erie in Pa., and Buffalo and Black Rock, 
 in N.Y. Port Maitland, at the mouth of the Grand or 
 Ouse R. forms the best, and almost the only harbor 
 on the Canada shore. In consequence of its shallow- 
 ness, a part of the lake is frozen over every winter, 
 and navigation is for several months suspended. Ow- 
 ing also to its shallowness, it is readily disturbed by 
 wind ; and for this reason, and for its peaucity of 
 good harbors, it has the reputation of being the most 
 dangerous to navigate of any of the great lakes. In 
 the season of navigation an immense amount of 
 transportation is done upon it, and its commerce is 
 of great value. The commuication with Lake Ontario 
 is through the 'Welland canal, constructed across the 
 Canadian peninsula. The fisheries of this lake are of 
 little importance compared with those of the upper 
 lakes, where the same kinds of fish are more abun- 
 dant and of better quality.

 Florida, the most S. State of the Uuion, ap- 
 proaches within one degree of the torrid zone. It 
 lies between lat. 24° 30' and 31° N., Ion. 80° and 87° 
 45' W.,and is bounded N. by Ga. and Ala. — from 
 which last it is separated on the N.W. by the Per- 
 dido R. The Atlantic washes its E., and the Gulf of 
 Mexico its S. and W. coasts, forming a sea-board of 
 more than 1,000 m. Its entire length from Perdido R. 
 to Cape Sable is abt. 700 m., its mean breadth 90 m.; 
 area, 54,240 sq. m. The peninsula proper terminates 
 on the S. of Cape Sable ; but a remarkable chain of 
 rocky islets, called the Florida Keys, begins at Cape 
 Florida on the E. shore, extends S.W. nearly 200 m. 
 in a direction generally conforming with that of the 
 coast, and ends in a cluster of 6and-heaped rocks 
 known as the Tortugas. South of the bank on which 
 these Keys rise, and separated from them by a navi- 
 gable channel, is the long, narrow and dangerous 
 coral ridge known as the Florida Reef. The most 
 important of the keys is Key West. The Gulf 
 coast of the State is intersected by numerous bays, 
 among which are Pensacola, Choctawhatchee, St. 
 Andrews, Appalachieola, Appalachee, Tampa, Char- 
 lotte, Ponce de Leon or Chatham, and Florida 
 Bays, the last lying between the Keys and mainland. 
 The chief rivers are the St. John's and the Indian R., 
 which empty into the Atlantic ; and the Suwanee, 
 
 Ockloconee, Appalachieola, Choctawhatcb.ee, Es- 
 cambia, and Perdido, which flow into the Gulf of 
 Mexico. The St. Mary's makes for some distance 
 the northern boundary of the State. Florida has also 
 numerous lakes, some of which are navigable. Lake 
 Okeechobee, in the Everglades, is abt. 40 m. long 
 and 30 broad. The surface is generally level, the 
 greatest elevation being not more than 300 feet 
 above the sea. The most remarkable feature is the 
 immense tract of marsh filled with islands in the S. 
 part of the State, called the Everglades, and by the 
 Indians "grass-water." The 6oil is generally sandy, 
 except in tiie hummocks, where it isintermixed with 
 clay. Florida, except in the vicinity of the swamps, 
 possesses one of the most equable and agreeable 
 climates of the continent. Occupying as it does a 
 situation between the temperate and tropical re- 
 gions, it enjoys exemption from the frosts and sudden 
 changes of the one and the excessive heat of the 
 other. The mercury, however, sometimes falls to the 
 freezing point, and great damage is done to the 
 orange plantations. Statistics show the State to be 
 one of the healthiest, if not the healthiest, in the U. 
 States, and its resident population is largely in- 
 creased in the winter months by invalids from the 
 North, seeking a more genial clime. — The produc- 
 tions of Florida are of an essentially tropical char- 
 acter; cotton, tobacco, rice, sugar-cane, arrow-root, 
 hemp, flax, coffee, and the cocoa-nut flourish there; 
 The climate is also favorable to the cultivation of 
 the silk- worm and for the cochineal insect. Oranges, 
 bananas, lemons, limes, olives, grapes, pine-apples, 
 grow abundantly, and are of exquisite flavor. 
 The cultivation and export of oranges and other 
 fruits have grown to be a considerable source of 
 wealth to the State ; and tha manufacture of cigars, 
 especially at Key West, is becoming an important 
 industry. The pasturage afforded by the savannas is 
 excellent, cattle requiring little or no attention from 
 their owners, and no housing in winter. Game and 
 fish abound in every part of the State. Deer, wild 
 turkeys, partridges, geese, ducks, and other small 
 game are in all the forests and about all the lakes, 
 rivers, and swamps ; green turtle, oysters, sheep's- 
 head, red-fish, mullet, etc., are found on all the 
 coasts, and fresh-water fish in all the inland waters. 
 The State also produces the panther, wild-cat, rac- 
 coon, opossum, flying-squirrel, armadillo, alligator, 
 and many kinds of serpents. Magnificent sponges 
 are gathered along the reefs, and form a consider- 
 able item of trade. Cotton, rice, sugar, tobacco, 
 lumber, fish, and fruits may be considered the most 
 valuable products. According to the census of 1880, 
 there were in Florida 863,515 acres of tilled land ; 
 the total value of farms was $22,128,013 ; of farm 
 products, $8,129,801. The principal products for the 
 census year were 1,450,699 lbs. of rice, 3,040,657 lbs. 
 of corn, 300,766 of oats, 1,752,909 of potatoes, 922,- 
 325 galls, of molasses, 210,357 lbs. of honey. 57,203 
 bales of cotton, 23,085 lbs. of tobacco, 89,028 bbls. 
 of peaches, and abt. 80,000,000 oranges. The value 
 of live stock on farms was $5,088,744, including 22,- 
 636 horses, 9,066 mules and asses, 16,141 working 
 oxen, 42,174 milch cows, 409,055 other cattle, 56.681 
 sheep (yielding 200,000 lbs. of wool), and 287,051 
 swine. Florida cotton is grown almost exclusively in 
 the northern group of counties, but the State is 
 capable of producing the celebrated Sea Island va- 
 riety, the cultivation of which was formerly confined 
 to a few islands on the coasts of S. C. and Ga. Ap- 
 palachieola, formerly a considerable shipping port 
 for cotton, has been superseded by Fernandina on 
 the Atlantic. The wool grown in Florida is long- 
 shaped, of medium and coarse grades, little atten- 
 tion being as yet given to producing fine wools. The 
 forests form no inconsiderable source of wealth. The 
 live-oak, so valuable in ship-building, abounds, also

 the other varieties of oak, swamp cypress, hickory, 
 pine, magnolia, dogwood, and laurel. The palma 
 christi (castor-oil bean) becomes here a large tree ; on 
 the islands and keys, boxwood, satinwood, mastic, 
 and lignum-vitse grow abundantly. The piue is found 
 from Cape Sable to near Indian R. — Manufactures are 
 unimportant, and arechiefly confined to fiourand ^rist 
 mills, and establishments for the manufacture of 
 sugar and molasses. In 1880 there were 426 manuf. 
 establishments, employing 5,404, capital invested §3,- 
 210,680, wages paid during the year, -SI ,270.875, 
 value of materials, §3,040,119, of products, 85,546,- 
 448. Agriculture and commerce are the chief re- 
 sources of the State, — the export of its fibrous pro- 
 ducts, cereals, fruits, fish, live-oak, and other tim- 
 ber, giving employment to a considerable tonnage. 
 Among the minera! productions may be named 
 amethyst, turquoise, lapis-lazuli, ochre, coal, and 
 iron ore. — Notwithstanding the great extent of its 
 sea-coast, Florida has few good harbors. Besides 
 being a naval station, Key West is a place of consid- 
 erable importance. Pensacola, Appalachicola, St. 
 Marks, Cedar Keys, Tampa, and Charlotte on the 
 Gulf, and Fernandina and St. Augustine on the At- 
 lantic coast, are the principal ports. Of these the 
 harbors of Pensacola and Fernandina are the best. 
 The coasting trade employs many steamers and sail- 
 ing craft, plying chieflv between Florida ports and 
 Savannah, Baltimore, Philadelphia, and New York. 
 The bulk of foreign merchandise reaches the State 
 from northern ports instead of by direct importation. 
 Key West shows much the largest tonnage of ves- 
 sels entering or clearing, St. John's and Fernandina 
 following in the order named. Ship-building is car- 
 ried on at all the ports, the vessels usually being of 
 small burthen, for coast traffic. — In 1882, there 
 were 793 m. of railroad in operation in Florida.— The 
 public school system of the State is increasing in scope 
 and efficiency. The latest official report shows 992 pub- 
 lic common schools, with 36,964 scholars iu attend- 
 ance. — Florida is divided into 39 counties, viz.: Ala- 
 chua, Baker, Bradford, Brevard, Calhoun, Clay, Co- 
 lumbia, Dade, Duval, Escambia, Franklin, Gadsden, 
 Hamilton, Hernando, Hillsborough, Holmes, Jack- 
 son, Jefferson, Lafayette, Leon. Levy, Liberty, 
 Madison, Manatee, Marion, Monroe, Nassau, 
 Orange, Polk, Putnam, St. John's, Santa Rosa, Sum- 
 ter, Suwauee, Taylor, Volusia, Wakulla, Walton, 
 Washington. The cities are Jacksonville, Pensacola, 
 St. Augustine, and Tallahassee (the cap.). — The ex- 
 ecutive power is vested in a governor elected by the 
 people every 4 years. The legislative power is repre- 
 sented by a senate elected for 4 years, and a house 
 of representatives or assembly chosen for 2 years. 
 The judiciary consists of a supreme court, having 
 one chief aud two associate judges, who hold three 
 annual sessions in Tallahassee ; there are also 7 cir- 
 cuit besides other inferior courts. The State sends 2 
 representatives to the federal Congress, and has 4 
 electoral votes. Tu 1882 the State debt was 81,285,- 
 260 ; aud the valuation of taxable property 836,691,- 
 823.— Florida was the first part of the U. States oc- 
 cupied by Europeans. Sebastian Cabot discovered 
 the coast in 1497. De Leon and Ferdinand de Soto 
 visited it in 1521 and 1539. It was ceded by Spain to 
 the U. States in 1821 for 85,000,000. The Sem-inole 
 war broke out in 1835, lasted 7 years and cost 1,466 
 lives aud 810 to 815,000,000. The State was admitted 
 to the Union Marcn 3, 1845. It passed an ordinance 
 of secession Jan. 10, 1861, which was repealed Oct. 
 28, 1865. A new constitution was ratified in May, 1868.

 Genesee River, A. Y., rises in Potter co., 
 Pa., within a few yards of the head waters of the 
 Alleghany and the N. branch of the Susquehanna, 
 flows N.W. and N.E. through Alleghany, Wyoming:, 
 Livingston, and Monroe counties, N.Y., and falls 
 into Lake Ontario, 7 m. N. of Rochester. Length, abt. 
 145 m. It is navigable from Lake Ontario to the N. 
 line of Rochester. The river abounds in beautiful 
 scenery, especially in cataracts. In Liviugstou co., 
 near Portage, are 3 falls within a distance of 2 m., 
 which are respectively 60, 90, and 110' ft. high ; and 
 for several miles below these the stream flows be- 
 tween perpendicular banks 400 ft. high. At the S. 
 line of Rochester commences a series of rapids, 
 which terminate in the centre of the city in a sheer 
 fall of 96 ft., called Genesee Falls. Six miles from the 
 mouth of the river is a broken fall of 84 ft., by which 
 the stream reaches the level of the lake. The Gene- 
 see is tapped above the rapids to feed the Erie canal, 
 which at Rochester crosses it by a fine limestone 
 aqueduct of nine arches, each of 5'J ft. span. The 
 Genesee Valley caual, commencing at Rochester, 
 follows the course of the river for a considerable 
 distance, locks into it at Mt. Morris, and crosses it 
 at Portage by an aqueduct.

 Georgetown, D. C, a port of entry, situated 
 on the left bank of the Potomac at the head of navi- 
 gation, abt. 2£ m. W.N. W. of the capitol of Washing- 
 ton with which it communicates by four iron bridges 
 thrown across Rock Creek. Founded by the colonial 
 Government of Maryland in 1751, Georgetown was a 
 city with a distinct administration from 1789 to 1871 ; 
 but in the latter year it was merged in the District of 
 Columbia, and in 1878 it was incorporated with the 
 city of Washington, so that now it has properly no 
 distinct existence. It is beautifully situated along a 
 range of hills, whose loftier eminences, locally called 
 the Heights, afford delightful positions for villas and 
 country seats, with extensive prospects over the river 
 and Washington. It contains the Georgetown college, 
 the oldest Catholic college in the U. States, with a li- 
 brary of upwards of 30,000 volumes, an extensive ap- 
 paratus for physical science, and a museum of nat- 
 ural history ; the convent of the visitation with a fe- 
 male academy attached ; the Peabody library, the 
 Luithieum institute, &c. A great decline has" taken 
 place in the commercial activity of Georgetown. Its 
 foreign trade is very slight ; but its share in the coast- 
 ing trade is still considerable, 146 steamers and 43 
 sailing vessels, affording an aggregate tonnage of 80,- 
 143 tons having entered in 1880. Its position at the 
 terminus of the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal secures 
 for it a fair share in the shipping of the coal from 
 the Alleghany fields ; and its fisheries render it a great 
 market for shad and herrings. It has 6 flour mills, 
 whose products are highly prized. Its p.o. is a branch 
 of that of Washington. Pop. 12,578.

 Georgetown, S. C, an E. co.. bordering on the 
 Atlantic, bounded S.W. by San tee R. and intersected 
 by the Great Pedee, Black, and Waccamaw, which 
 unite just above Georgetown and enter the ocean 
 through the estuary called Winyaw Bay ; area, 813 
 sq. m. The surface is level and partly occupied by 
 marshes and pine forests. The soil is generally fertile. 
 The chief prod, in 1880 were 44,161 bush, of corn, 
 10,627,789 lbs. of rice, and 160 bales of cotton. Cap.,

 Georgia, a S. state bounded N. by Tennessee 
 and North Carolina, E. by South Carolina and the 
 Atlantic ocean. S. by Florida, and W. by Alabama. 
 The Savannah R. separates the State on the E. from 
 S. C; the St. Mary's, on the S., divides it in part from 
 Fla.; the Chattahoochee, on the W., flows between 
 Ga. and Ala. for nearly half its course. Ga. lies be- 
 tween lat. 30° 21' 39' and 35° N., and between Ion. 
 81° and 85° 53' 38" W. It is 320 m. long from N. to 
 S., and 256 m. in its greatest breadth from E. to W.; 
 area, 58,980 sq. m. The sea-coast of Ga., like that 
 of the Carolinas, is skirted by fertile islands, sepa- 
 rated from the mainland by narrow lagoons or by 
 sounds. This section is essentially tropical. 
 Beginning at the sea-coast, a gradually ascending 
 sandy plain extends N. and W. as far as the head of 
 navigation on the Savannah, Ogeechee, Oconee 
 and' Ocmulgee Rs., where it meets a primary 
 formation. Augusta, Milledgeville and Macon indi- 
 cate the N. limit of this tract. Here begins the 
 hilly and finally mountainous region, the most ex- 
 tensive, fertile and salubrious of the State. A sec- 
 ond plateau, 60 or 70 m. broad, stretches above the 
 falls of the rivers until it meets the southernmost 
 ransres of the great Appalachian chain of mountains 
 which traverses Virginia, North Carolina, and north- 
 ern Ga., under the name of the Blue Ridge, and is

 finally lost in Alabama. This picturesque district 
 extends in Ga. from Rabun Co. in the N. E. corner 
 of the State to Dade in the extreme N. W., where 
 the summit of Lookout Mountain domiuates the 
 valley of the Tennessee. Here are the sources of 
 the t wo principal rivers of the State ; here is the 
 gold producing region ; and here is also the theatre 
 of some of the most sanguinary battles of the civil 
 war. The elevations of the Blue Ridge vary from 
 1,2(10 to 4,000 feet, In the S. E. of the State is the 
 extensive Okefinokee swamp, w!;ich has an esti- 
 mated circumference of 180 m., is filled with pools 
 and islands, and is the congenial home of alligators, 
 lizards, and other reptiles. There are many fine 
 rivers in Ga. A north and south line passing through 
 Macon would neai ly divide the streams flowing into 
 the Atlantic from those discharging into the Gulf 
 of Mexico. The Savannah, Ogeechee, Altamaha, 
 Santilla, and St. Mary's fall into the Atlantic, and the 
 Chattahoochee, Flint, and tributaries of the Suwanee 
 flow to the Gulf coast. Ga. has about 128 m. of sea- 
 coast, but has few good harbors, except within the 
 rivers emptying upon it. St. Mary's, Brunswick, 
 Darien, aud Savannah are the principal. The chain 
 of islands lying off the mainland produces the cele- 
 brated sea-island cotton, but owing to the changes 
 brought about by the Secession war it is now little 
 cultivated. — The central and southern portions of 
 Ga., including the 6eaboard, are subject to excessive 
 heats in summer. At Savannah observations show 
 the mean temperature for July to have sometimes 
 reached 99° Fahr. In the northern district of the 
 State the same season is cooler and less enervating. 
 Indeed, the mountain region is becoming noted for 
 its genial and healthful climate, and is attracting in- 
 valids and pleasure-seekers from all parts of the 
 Union. In the low, marshy lauds lying contiguous 
 to or upon the coast, malarious fevers prevail in 
 spring and summer. The belt of country stretching 
 from Augusta across the State to Columbus, having 
 a width of from 30 to 60 m., is pronounced a very 
 healthy district. At Augusta the mean summer 
 temperature is about 79°, the winter 47°. At Atlanta 
 careful observations give the average of summer 
 heat as 75°, and winter 45°. The interior is com- 
 paratively free from the dreaded epidemics cholera 
 and yellow fever, but Savannah and the coast are 
 periodically scourged by them. — There is in Ga. as 
 great diversity of soil as of climate. Beginning 
 with the Sea Islands, which are composed of a 
 sandy alluvium, intermixed with decomposed coral, 
 we pass from the rich alluvions near the coast, in 
 which the great rice plantations are, to the thinner 
 soil of the Pine Belt, sometimes inaptly denominated 
 Pine Barrens. These are at present valuable for 
 their timber and naval stores, but are susceptible of 
 cultivation. The middle region consists of a red 
 loam, once productive, but from long cultivation 
 impoverished. With the aid of fertilizers it pro- 
 duces cotton, tobacco and cereals. We now reach 
 the so-called Cherokee country of the north, con- 
 taining lands amoug the most fertile in the State, 
 lands which, notwithstanding their tillage from an 
 unknown period by the aboriginal inhabitants, grow 
 wheat, corn, Irish potatoes, pease, beans, etc., 
 abundantly. Cotton may also be successfully culti- 
 vated, but with less advantage than in other dis- 
 tricts of the State. This fibre is chiefly produced 
 along the fertile bottom-lands or contiguous uplands 
 of the livers. The same lands yield rice, Indian 
 corn and sugar. Middle and S. W. Ga. are the most 
 productive cotton areas. In the S. W. the soil, 
 though light and sandy, produces cotton. InS. Ga. 
 there are millions of acres of magnificent, yellow 
 pine forests of great value forhouse or ship-building, 
 and in these forests turpentine plantations have 
 been opened. The live-oak, also valuable for ship- 
 
 building purposes, abounds in the S. E. of the State. 
 The swamps afford cedar and cypress, the central 
 region oak and hickory. All the fruits of the tem- 
 perate zone succeed well in Ga. Cotton is the 
 great crop of Ga. She ranks second among the cot- 
 ton States. The principal products for the year 
 1880 were as follows :

 In 1881 there were on farms 121,584 horses, 199,183 
 mules, 273,100 milch cows, 408,816 oxen aud other 
 cattle, 378,144 sheep, and 1,701,660 hogs.— Ga. is 
 equally rich in minerals. Iron ores of the very best 
 quality abound in various parts of the State. Cop- 
 per occurs in the northern districts, known as the 
 Cherokee country, and numerous mines have been 
 opened ; a few of which only are worked with profit. 
 Gold is found in limited quantities, and, before the 
 Cal. discovery, was considered of sufficient impor- 
 tance to supply a U. States Mint at Dahlouega with 
 the metal. The yield of gold for the year 1882 was 
 $125,000. There are also mines of manganese, soap- 
 stone, mica, asbestos, barytes, kaolin, lime, slate, 
 marl, &c. — Ga. is the fgremost southern State in 
 her railroad and manufacturing enterprises. Both 
 have been chiefly developed since the war. Her 
 rivers and railways afford abundant facilities for the 
 movement of merchandise as well as crops. Her 
 streams also provide excellent and unfailing water- 
 power. In the development of her industries a 
 great future is predicted for Ga. Indeed, some of 
 the more sanguine claim that she is already becom- 
 ing a formidable rival of New England in the manu- 
 facture of cotton and woolen fabrics. Ga. had, in 
 1880, 3,593 manufacturing establishments, employ- 
 ing 24,875 hands; capital invested, $20,672,410; 
 wages paid during the year, $5,266,152; value of 
 materials, $24,143,939; value of products, $36,440,948. 
 Among them were 40 cotton-mills whose aggregate 
 capital was $6,348,657; spindles, 198,656;" looms, 
 4,493. Ga. had, in 1882, 2,581 m. of railroad in oper- 
 ation. — The State is divided into 136 cos., viz. ;

 Tel fare, Terrell, Thomas, Towns, Troupe, Twiggs, 
 Union, Upson, Walker, Walton, Ware, Warren, 
 Washington, Wayne, Webster, White, Whitfield, 
 Wilcox, Wilkes. Wilkinson, and Worth. There are 
 eight cities, viz.: Savannah (the chief sea-port), 
 Atlanta (the cap.), Augusta, Macon, Columbus, 
 Athens, Milledgeville, and Rome. The important 
 towns are Albany, Americus, Bainbridge, Bruns- 
 wick, Cartersville, Covington, Cuthbert, Dalton, 
 Dawson, Eatonton, Fort Valley, Griffin, LaGrange, 
 Marietta, Newnan, Thomasville, Valdosta, Wash- 
 ington, and West Point, Columbus. Anderson- 
 ville, in Sumter co., acquired terrible celebrity dur- 
 ing the civil war as the site of the chief military 
 prison of the Southern Confederacy ; Atlanta is a 
 railway and manufacturing centre. In the vicinity 
 and for its possession were conducted some of the 
 most important military operations of the secession 
 war. — The legislative authority is vested in a gen- 
 eral assembly, consisting of a senate of 44 members, 
 and a house of representatives of 175 members. The 
 legislature meets annually. The governor and other 
 executive officers hold office for a term of four years. 
 The judicial authority is vested in a supreme court of 
 three judges, 19 circuit courts, and county courts for 
 the most populous counties. Ga. sends 10 representa- 
 tives to the Federal Congress, and has 12 electoral 
 votes. The valuation of taxable property for the 
 year 1880 was $238,934,126 (real estate $139,657,250, 
 personal property §99,276,876). — Previous to the war 
 there was no common school in Ga. Although a 
 plan of public instruction was organized at an 
 earlier date, it was not given effect until 1873. 
 Schools are now to be found in every co. in the 
 State. The attendance in 1880 was : White pupils, 
 150,134 ; colored, 86,429. There are a large number 
 of colleges in the State. The State University at 
 Athens, with its bran'ches at Milledgeville, 
 Dahlonega, Cuthbert, Thomasville, and Augusta, 
 tausrht in 1880 a grand aggregate of 1,288 pupils. 
 There are male colleges at Covington, Oxford and 
 Macon, and female colleges at Macon, Covington, 
 Greenesboro, Lagranee, Newnan, Dalton, and 
 Rome, and high schools at other points. There are 
 : also institutions for the blind (at Rome), and for the 
 deaf and dumb (near Rome). — Of the 13 provinces 
 which declared themselves independent in 1776, Ga. 
 was the latest settled (1773) ; it was named in honor 
 of George II. An ordinance of secession was passed 
 Jan. 19, 1861. Gen. Sherman made his march through 
 Ga. in 1864. The State was readmitted into the 
 Union in July, 1867. A new constitution was adopted 
 in 1877. Pop. in 1790, 82.548: in 1820, 340,433 ; in

 Gila (held), Ariz, and A'. Mcx., a river which rises 
 in the Sierra Madre Mts., in Socorro co., N. Mex., 
 flows S.W. to near Ariz., where it bends S. and 
 theu flows W. through that territory to its junction 
 with the Colorado, of which it it is the principal trib- 
 utary, abt. 180 m. above its mouth. Its sources are 
 abt. 5,000 ft. above the sea. The principal tributaries 
 from the N. are the Rio Nutroso, Prieto, Bouito, San 
 Carlos, Salt R., or Rio Salado, and Agua Fria Creek ; 
 from the S. the Rio San Domingo and San Pedro. For 
 more than half its entire length, which is nearly 500 
 m., the Gila passes through mountains, and in some 
 places is unapproachable, being buried between walls 
 of perpendicular rock nearly 1,000 ft. high. It emerges 
 from the mouutaius in Ion. Ill" 55' W., after which its 
 course is through an open aud comparatively level 
 country to its termination. In the last 300 m. it has an 
 average fall of 5 ft. per mile, and averages 60 ft. in 
 width, 3 ft.ii) depth, and in velocity2m.au hour. In the 
 lower portion the valley is from 1 to 3 m. wide ; abt. 150 
 m. from its mouth there is a considerable bend to the 
 N. where the valley for 25 m. is from 5 to 10 m. wide. 
 Gold aud silver are found near the banks of the Gila. 
 The ruined edifices, broken pottery, aud traces of ir- 
 rigating canals found along this river, show that its 
 former population was much larger than at present. 
 About 200 m. from the Colorado, in one of the finest 
 portions of the valley, is the reservation of Maricopa 
 ■and Pimo Indians. It is intersected in all directions 
 by irrigating canals, and produces abundant crops.

 East Gloucester, West Gloucester, Aunisquam, Bay 
 View and Lauesville. Tbe harbor, opening out into 
 Massachusetts Bay, is one of the best on the coast, 
 and is defended by a fort. The prosperity of Glou- 
 cester depends mainly on its cod and mackerel fish 
 cries, which employ nearly 400 vessels, with upwards 
 of 3,500 men, and have an annual value of about 
 4,000,000 dollars. In 1882 there were 492 vessels of 
 28,534 tons, in aggregate, belonging to this port. 
 Steamers ply daily between the city and Boston.

 chiefly with the fisheries, and in the neighborhood 
 there are extensive granite quarries. Gloucester pos- 
 sesses a fine city hall, 16 churches, a high school, 7 
 grammar schools, a free library, 4 nat. and 1 savings 
 bank, and 2 wkly papers. On account of its attrac- 
 tive situation, and the fine scenery of the neighbor 
 hood, it is a favorite summer residence. About 2 
 miles from it is Norman's Woe, the scene of the 
 wreck of the " Hesperus," celebrated in Longfel- 
 low's poem. Gloucester was occupied as a fishing 
 station in 1624, was incorporated as a town in 1642,

 Great E2as£n, or Fremont Basin, the region 
 extending W. from the Wahsatch Mts. to the Sierra 
 Nevada, measuring some 3C0 m. N. and S., and 350 
 E. and W., and including nearly all of Nevada, a great 
 part of Utah, a large area in California, and small 
 parts of Wyoming, Idaho, and Oregon. Its waters do 
 not reach the sea, hence it is called a basin. It is how- 
 ever, in reality, a series of basins, mostly long, brok- 
 en N. and S. valleys lying between rugged mountain 
 ranges. Across these ridges and valleys the valley of. 
 thellumboldtR. strikes diagonally, affordingthe only 
 practicable railroad route from E. to W. — the route 
 of the C.P.RR. The climate is very dry, and agricul- 
 ture is not practicable without irrigation. The streams 
 are small, and important only for irrigation and min- 
 ing purposes. The Humboldt, Carson, Bear, Jordan, 
 Pi ovo, Beaver, Sevier, and Weber rivers are the larg- 
 est. Great Salt Lake is the largest body of water, and 
 Utah Lake is the principal fresh-water lake. The 
 other lakes, some of them mere "sinks" or marshy 
 places, are partly salt and partly fresh, while some 
 are composed of highly complex chemical solutions, 
 like Mono Lake in California. The climate is gener- 
 ally healthful. There is a considerable grazing indus- 
 try. Gold, silver, lead, borax, salt, sulphur, and soda 
 salts are abundant, and the mining interest is impor- 
 tant.

 AV. It is 70 m. long, 45 m. broad, and 4,250 ft. above 
 the sea-level, and is slowly rising. It contains num- 
 erous rocky islands, some seven of which are of con- 
 siderable size. Antelope Island, the largest, being 
 abt. 18 m. long. Its maximum depth is 60 ft.; mean 
 depth, 12 ft. Some of the islands are used as sheep 
 pastures. The lake is doubtless much smaller than 
 formerly. It is navigated by a line of steamers from 
 Coriune to Black Rock, on the S. shore. Its water 
 contains 20.196 per c.ent. of common salt, 1.834 of 
 sodic sulphate, 0.252 of magnesium chloride, and a 
 trace of calcium-chloride. Its specific gravity is 1.170, 
 almost exactly that of the Dead Sea ; but, unlike 
 that sea, it abounds in animal life. Its area is 1,900

 Green Mountains, the N. part of the Ap- 
 palachian chain. It commences at West Rock, near 
 New Haven, Conn., and passing through the W. 
 parts of Conn, and Mass., and holding a middle 
 course in Yt., between Lake Champlain and Connecti- 
 cut R., extends to the borders of Canada. In its 8. 
 part, this chain is not entirely continuous, but can 
 readily be traced ; but from the N. line of Mass. to 
 Monipelier, Yt., the range continues lofty and un- 
 broken through by any considerable stream. S. from 
 Montpelier two ranges extend, one N.E. nearly par- 
 allel with the Connecticut R., dividing the waters 
 flowing E. from those flowing W.; and the other, 
 which is the higher and more broken, extending 
 nearly N. and near Lake Champlain. Through this 
 range the Onion, Lamoille, and Missique Rs. make 
 their way toward the lake. Among the principal 
 peaks are Mt. Mansfield, 20 in. N.W. Montpelier, 
 4,279 ft. above the sea ; Camel's Hump, 17 m. W. of 
 Montpelier, 4,188 ft.; Killington peak, near Rutland, 
 3,924 ft.; and Ascutney, in Windsor co., near the 
 Connecticut R., 3,320 ft. Particular names are locally 
 applied to the part of the range going through Mass. 
 and Conn.; as the Hoosac Mts. in Mass. for that por- 
 tion lying between the Connecticut and Housatonic 
 Rs., and constituting the most elevated portion of 
 the State, and the Taconic Mts. for the W. part of 
 the range, alongthe New York line. The Greeu Mts. 
 neither forms the marked uniformity of elevation 
 and parallel of its ridges that characterizes the Ap- 
 palachian chain further S.; nor have these the ab- 
 ruptness and precipitous outlines of the granite 
 summits of theWhite Mts. They give name (from the 
 French monts verts) to the State of Vermont, and con- 
 stitute its most prominent feature.

 S., turns S.E. through the N.E. corner of Utah, en-

 deep and precipitous canons. It first enters the 
 Uintah Mts. in the extreme N.W. corner of Colo- 
 rado, at a point called Flaming Gorge just below 
 which the walls of the canon are nearly 1,500 ft. 
 high. The stream is swift, the descent being in 
 places 20 ft. to the mile. Rapids and cataracts, some 
 of them of great height, are frequent. There is gen- 
 erally on the one side or the other a narrow strip of 
 land forming the valley of the river, but for consid- 
 erable distances the walls rise perpend cularly from 
 the water's edge to the height of 5,000 or 6,000 ft.,

 Gulf of Mexico, a large inland sea washing 
 the shore of the U. States and Mexico, connected 
 by the Florida channel with the N. Atlantic ocean, 
 aud by the channel of Yucatan with the Carribean 
 Sea, situated between lat. 18° and 31° N., and be- 
 tween Ion. 81° and 98° W. Length from E. to W., 
 1,200 m., average breadth, 650 m.; area, abt. 800,000 
 sq. m. This sea, which is of an irregular circular 
 shape, is, unlike the Carribean Sea, almost clear of 
 shoals aud islands, none being found except on the 
 coasts of Yucatan and Florida. Along the coasts of 
 Mexico its soundings are very regular, with 100 
 fathoms at a distance of 30 m. from the shore. On 
 the N. side, and especially opposite the mouths of 
 the Mississippi, the depth is considerably diminished 
 aud at its E. extremity the navigation is rendered 
 intricate and dangerous by the Tortugas bank, 
 Florida reef, and various other keys, shoals, and in- 
 lets, including the great Bahama bank, which sur- 
 round the N. coast of Cuba. The E. trade winds pre- 
 vail from April to October, this being usually the 
 wet season ; the Nortcs begin in October, but are not 
 violent till the middle of November, from which 
 time till the end of February they blow with great 
 fury, and are objects of much dread to navigators. 
 These gales last for four or five, and occasionally 
 even ten days; but their extreme fierceness is usually 
 spent in the first 48 hours. At these times the larger 
 
 vessels, which cannot enter the shallow harbors of 
 the Mexican coast, are obliged to slip their anchors, 
 and keep as far as possible off shore. Examples are 
 not wanting also of twrles happening between May 
 and August, at which time they are particularly 
 furious. Luckily, however, the hurricanes and tor- 
 nadoes of the gulf are by no means so fierce aud de- 
 structive as those in the Carribean sea. The prin- 
 cipal current of the gulf of Mexico, and the only one 
 worth mention, is the remarkable gulf stream, which 
 sets W.N.W. between cape St. Antonio and cape 
 Catoche ; this runs from 12 to 30 m. a day, and is 
 perceptible even during the nories, except close along 
 the shores of Mexico. At the N.W. extremity of the 
 gulf its course gradually changes, till, at the mouth 
 of the Mississippi, it turns E., and afterward S.E., as 
 it again rushes out into the Atlantic ocean, at the 
 rate of 80 m. in the 24 hours. The tides of the gulf of 
 Mexico are of no great importance, they nowhere 
 exceed 3 or 4 ft. ; but their average rise is not more 
 than 2 ft. The color of the water is a deep indigo, 
 darker or more intense than that of the ocean ; 
 phosphorescent lights shines on it with great bril- 
 liancy, and between the coasts of Yucatan and Louis- 
 iana great quantities of Jiu-us natans occur in parallel 
 lines from S.S.E. to N.N.W., and are carried out iu 
 large masses through the Straits of Florida.

 Harper's Ferry, W. l«.,p.v.#, Jefferson co., 
 Is grandly situated at t he foot of Bolivar heights aud 
 at the confluence of the Shenandoah and Potomac 
 Rs., where they intersect the Blue Ridge, 45 m. N.W. 
 Washington. It is the junction-point of the B.,0. 
 and its H.F.&V. branch, 97 m. E. of Cumberland ; 
 and the Ohio aud Chesapeake canal passes along the 
 Maryland side of the Potomac R. The village since 
 the civil war has been in a decaying condition. It is 
 the seat of Stover College, for students of color. Pre- 
 vious to the war Harper's Ferry contained an exten- 
 sive arsenal and armory, and during the war it was the 
 scene of several exploits which have given it a name 
 in history. On the 16th October, 1S59, it was siezedby 
 John Brown, the abolitionist, who was overpowered 
 on the 18th and taken prisoner. April, 1861, it was cap- 
 tured by the Confederates, who on evacuating it in 
 June destroyed the arsenal and armory and the bridge 
 across the Potomac. The village was afterwards held 
 by a Union garrison of 12,000men, who, however, on 
 the 15th September, 18C2, after a brave resistance of 
 several days, surrendered to a strong Confederate 
 force under Jackson and A. P. Hill. After the battle 
 of Antietam, on the 17th of the same month, it was 
 reoecupied by the army of the Potomac under Gen- 
 eral McClellan. In June, 1863, it was again abandon- 
 ed to the Confederates. After their defeat at Gettys- 
 burg, the town again fell into the hands of the Fed- 
 eral troops, who held it until the demonstration 
 aga!nst Washington in July, 1864. After the battle 
 of Monocacy on July 9th it was occupied by the 
 United States forces, and held by them until the end 
 of the war. The most flourishing part of the town 
 was nearly destroyed by a flood in the Shenandoah, 
 October, 1878. Pop. 764: of tp. 1,219.

 city hospital, the home for the friendless, and the 
 State lunatic hospital. An abundant water supply 
 is obtained from the river. Coal and iron are largely 
 wrought in the neighborhood, and the great facilities 
 of communication both by canal aud railroad have 
 enabled the city to become one of the centres of the 
 iron trade. It possesses large iron-foundries, 
 manuf. of steel, machines, boilers, engines, carriages, 
 nails, files, galvanized iron, brooms, soap, and shoes, 
 rolling mills, saw and plauiug mills, flour mills, cot-

 ■ fluril lord, a city#, the cap. of Hartford CO., 
 and of the State. It is situated on the W bank of 
 the Connecticut R., 60 m. from Long Island Sound, 
 at the head of steamboat and sloop navigation, and 
 100 m. N.E. New York, and 95 VV.S.W. Boston by 
 rail. An important centre of railway communication, 
 it has also a regular line of steamboats and packets, 
 besides some 200 sailing craft engaged in the coasting 
 trade. The river is usually closed from the middle 
 of December to the middle of March, and at the 
 breaking up of the ice in spring sometimes rises 29 
 feet. The city is intersected by the sluggish and dirty 
 Park R., which is spanned by 10 bridges. A covered 
 toll bridge, 1,000 feet long, across the Connecticut 
 R., connects the city with East Hartford. The city 
 is for the most part compactly built of brick, granite, 
 and freestone — the public buildings and those of 
 many private corporations being elegant and sub- 
 stantial. The new State-house occupies a capacious 
 building of white marble in the modern Gothic style, 
 costing over $3,100,000, and standing conspicuously 
 in the midst of the city, on a slight elevation, at the 
 south side of Bushnell Park (a beautiful area of 46 
 acres). Wadsworth's Tower, on Talcott Mountain, 
 to the N.W., affords one of the finest views in New 
 England. Hartford is a healthy city, and its mean 
 annual temperature is 50° Fahr. The city is divided 
 into 8 wards, and is governed by a major and 16 
 aldermen, elected biennially, and 32 councilmen 
 elected annually. The water supply is from four 
 reservoirs in West Hartford, with a capacity of 
 1,208,450,367 gallons. Hartford has a paid fire depart- 
 ment, and seven steam fire-engines. The principal 
 business of the city is insurance. There are 9 fire in- 
 surance companies, 8 life insurance companies, and 
 1 accident insurance company, 10 nat. banks, 11 other 
 banks, and 4 savings banks. There are also, exclu- 
 sive of railroads, 73 mechanical and manuf. corpo- 
 rations, though several of the larger ones have their 
 works in adjacent towns. Some of them have a 
 world-wide reputation, as the Colt Fire-arms Com- 
 pany, with works occupying grounds of 123 acres. 
 They also include carpet, linen, and silk works, and 
 a manufactory of edgetools. The publication of 
 books too is a considerable interest. A very import- 
 ant branch of trade is the sale of leaf tobacco, which 
 is the chief crop of the Connecticut R. valley. There 
 are 36 churches and 15 chapels of all denominations, 
 including a fine Jewish synagogue. Here, too, is the 
 seat of the Roman Catholic bishop, and the head- 
 quarters, in the U. S., of the Chinese educational 
 commission. Beside the 17 public schools, there are

 Buffalo Bayou at the head of navigation, aud at 
 the junctiou of several railways, 50 m. N.W. Galves- 
 ton. The bayou is crossed at Houston by several 
 bridges. Most of the streets are shaded by Hue aven- 
 ues of trees, and the principal of them are traversed 
 by tramway cars. The chief buildings are the city 
 hall and market-house, completed in 1874, at a cost 
 of $400,000, the masonic temple of the grand lodge 
 of Texas, and the hotels, the largest of which is the 
 finest ic the State. The city is well supplied with 
 schools and churches, and has two large public libra- 
 ries. It is the principal railroad centre of the State, 
 and the depot of an extensive and rich agricultural 
 region, besides being the seat of important and var- 
 ied manuf. The recent deepening of the bayou so 
 as to make it navigable for vessels drawing 9 ft, of 
 water has considerably increased the shipping trade, 
 which is chiefly in lumber. The town possesses iron 
 and brass foundries, railroad machine shops, plans 
 ing-mills, factories for cars, wagons, and agricultural 
 implements, sheet-iron and tin works, a large flour 
 mill, beef-packing establishments, and manuf. of 
 cotton, soap, Portland cement and bone-dust. In the 
 neighborhood there are extensive nurseries. The an- 
 nual fair of the State of Texas is held at Houston.

 Hud son, or North River, one of the largest 
 and noblest rivers of the U. States, and the princi- 
 pal river of the State of New York, is formed by the 
 confluence of two small streams which rise in the 
 Adirondack Mts. in Essex co. About the middle of 
 Warren co, the river is joiued by another of nearly 
 equal size, the Schroon, which also has its rise in 
 Essex co After receiving the Sacondaga R. 10 m. 
 further S., the Hudson flows irregularly in an E. di- 
 lection to Sandy Hill, after which it keeps a very 
 straight course almost due S. until it falls into New 
 York Bay. At Troy it receives the Mohawk, whose 
 volume of water is greater than its own, and at 
 Kingston the Wallkill, but its other tributaries, 
 though numerous, are unimportant. Its total length 
 is, abt. 300 m., and the length of its course from 
 Sandy Hill 190 m. At Glen's Falls near Sandy Hill, 
 
 it makes a precipitous descent of 50 ft., whence there 
 are various rapids of different velocities until it 
 reaches Troy. It is tidal nearly up to Troy, and the 
 fall from Albany, 6 m. below Troy, to the mouth of 
 the river, a distance of 145 m., is only 5 ft. By means 
 of a lock and dam it is navigable to Waterford, a 
 short distance above Troy, but large steamers do 
 not proceed further up than Hudson, 29 m. below 
 Albany, and 116 from the mouth of the river. A short 
 distance below Albany the navigation has been ob- 
 structed by shifting sands, the point at which the 
 difficulties are most formidable being the " over- 
 slaugh " at Castleton, but extensive operations have 
 been for some time carried on in order to effect a 
 permanent remedy for the obstructions. The scenery 
 of the river is for the most part varied and beautiful, 
 generally picturesque, and in many places in the 
 highest degree striking and magnificent. In the up- 
 per part the views though not tame are a little mo- 
 notonous, the gently sloping hills, with the variega- 
 ted colors of wood and cultivated land and the oc- 
 casional occurrence of a town or village, repeating 
 one another without any marked feature to break 
 their regularity. Below Troy, for a considerable dis- 
 tance, the number of islands renders much care in 
 navigation necessary. Thirty m. from Troy noble 
 views begin to be obtained of theCatskill Mts., tow- 
 ering up on the W. bank, the nearest eminence at 
 the distance of abt. 7 m. Forty-six m. below Cats- 
 kill is the large and flourishing city of Poughkeepsie, 
 and 14 m. further down the pro.-perous city of New 
 burg, a short distance below which, at the favorite 
 summer resort of Cornwall Landing, the river enters 
 the Highlands, passing between a series of hills 
 whose frequently precipitous sides rise often abru- 
 tly from the water's edge. The views in this part of 
 tne riverare of a charactei in some respects unparal 
 leled, and at several points they have an impressive- 
 uess and surprising grandeur rarely equaled. The dis- 
 tance through which the river traverses this mountain 
 scenery is abt 16 m , and abt. 10 m after it is en 
 tered, West Point is reached, a favorite landing-place 
 of tourists, the seat of the U. States military acad- 
 emy. After passing the pretty town of Peekskill the 
 river widens into Haverstraw Bay, at the extremily 
 of which is the headland of Croton Point. Below is 
 the wider expanse of Tappan Bay, upon which stands 
 Tarrytown. At Piermont, where the bay ends, the 
 range named the Palisades rise picturesquely from 
 the water to the height of between 300 and 500 ft., 
 extending along the W. bank for abt. 20 m., the 
 left bank being level and dotted with hamlets and 
 villas. At the mouth of the river on the W. bank 
 are Hoboken and Jersey City, and on the E. bank 
 New York city. By the Erie Canal the river is con- 
 nected with Lake Erie, by tlie Champlain Canal with 
 Lake Champlain, and by the Delaware Canal with 
 the Delaware K.; and its commercial importance as 
 a means of traffic is not excelled by that of any other 
 river in the world. The H.R.RR. skirts the E. bank 
 of the river from New York to Troy, whence it bemls 
 eastward on its way to Lake Champlain. The Hud- 
 son has some valuable fisheries, the principal fish be- 
 ing bass, shad, and sturgeon. The attemps to stock it 
 with salmon have not been very successful. Though 
 Verrazzani in 1524 proceeded up the river Hudson a 
 short distance in a boat, the first to demonstrate its 
 extent and importance was Henry Hudson, from 
 whom it derives its name. He sailed above the mouth 
 of the Mohawk in September, 1609.

 vation called Prospect Hill, which, after rising ab- 
 ruptly 60 ft. from the river, slopes gradually to an 
 elevation of 500 ft. The high river bank projects into 
 the river in the form of a bold promontory, affording 
 a delightful promenade, and having on either side 
 a fine bay with depth of water sufficient for the Iarg- 
 I est ships. The wharves are situated at the foot of 
 the promontory and along the margin of these bays, 
 i Works to supply the city with water have lately been 
 jj constructed at a cost of §250,000. The principal build- 
 ings are the court-house, constructed of marble and 
 l limestone and surmounted by a dome, the city hall 
 and post-office, and the academy. The city has 3 pub- 
 lic libraries, 3 nat. banks, 2 daily and 2 wkly papers. 
 It at one time vied as a trading "port with New York, 
 and, although both its West India trade and its whale 
 i fishing have now been abandoned, it still carries on an 
 1 important river trade, and has regular steam com- 
 munication with New York and Albany. It also pos- 
 sesses large iron smelting works, a stove foundry, a 
 tannery, a flour mill, breweries, iron foundries, and 
 factories for pianos, carriages, paper, car wheels, 
 and steam fire engines. Hudson was settled in 17S4,

 Humboldt River, Nev., the longest stream 
 of that State, rises in Elko co., and flows 384 m. in a 
 generally S.W. course. Its waters are alkaline, being 
 charged with soda. It is nowhere many yards in 
 width, and is generally fordable. It finally ends in 
 Humboldt Sink, "a marshy spot in a sandy plain," 
 not really a lake except in high stages of the river. 
 The river is chiefly remarkable as furnishing the only 
 E. and W. valley through this region, while N. and 8. 
 valleys are numerous. The C.P.RR. follows its valley 
 for many miles. The river bottoms average a mile in 
 width ; outside of these the land is good, but needs 
 irrigation. The Little Humboldt is its largest afflu- 
 ent. Some 5 m. above Humboldt Lake are the "Big 
 Meadows," with an area of 5,000 acres, furnishing 
 great quantities of hay and some peat. The sink is 
 3,920 ft. above the sea-level.

 Huron Lake, one of the five great lakes of 
 N. America, lies between Lake Superiorou the N.W., 
 Lake Michigan on the N.W. and W., and Lakes Erie 
 and Ontario on the S. and S.E. Its shape is so irreg- 
 ular that it is difficult accurately to determine its 
 exact dimensions. It lies between 43° 5' and 46° 15' 
 JN. lat,, and between 79° 30' and 84° 50' W. Ion. Its 
 length from N. to S. is 260 in., and along the coast 
 on the S.W. shore, it is 360 m. It is 160 m. in breadth 
 from E. to W. in its widest part ; but exclusive of 
 the bay on the N.E., it is only 90, and its circumfer- 
 ence 1,100 m. Its principal indentations are Saginaw 
 Bay, extending into Michigan, and two others, one 
 immediately N. of Manitou Islands, and the other 
 BJE-. of them. The latter called Georgian Bay, is abt. 
 il70 m. long by 70 broad, in its greatest length and 
 breadth, and is not far from one-fourth the size of 
 the whole lake. Manitou (or Great Spirit) Islands, 
 .'Xtend from a peninsula in its S.E. part, through its 
 K. part, and with Drummond's Island separate an- 
 other sheet of water from the main lake, 80 m. long 
 ,-ud 20 broad. The boundary between the U. States 
 ■nd Canada, passes along the middle of the main 
 
 Huron 225 m. and between Lesser Manitou and Drum- 
 mond's Islands, by what is called the middle pass- 
 age, and curves round to the N. and W. 25 in. to the 
 entrance of St. Mary's R. The elevation of the sur- 
 face of Lake Huron above the surface of the ocean 
 is 596 ft.; or less than that of Lake Superior by 45 
 ft., or that of Lake Michigan by 4 ft. The greatest 
 depth towards its W. shore, is at least, 1,000 ft., and 
 its mean depth 900 ft., or abt. 300 ft. below the level 
 of the Atlantic. The largest of the Manitou Island?, 
 called Great Manitoulin, is 90 m. long and in its 
 widest part, nearly 30 broad. The islands of Lake 
 Huron are said to amount to 32,000. It receives the 
 waters of Lake Superior by St. Mary's Strait or 
 R., those of Lake Michigan by the Straits of Mieh- 
 ilimackinac ; and discharges its owu waters hy the 
 river St. Clair. It receives the waters of Lake Nipis- 
 sing on the N. bythe river Francis and of Lake Sim- 
 coe on the E. by Severn R. Lake Huron is subject 
 to violent storms, but its navigation is not usually 
 dangerous. Ihough very deep it is generally shallow 
 near the shores. It has some fine harbors, though 
 there are no placesof much importance on its borders. 
 
 Huron River, O., rises in Richland co., and 
 flows through Huron and Erie cos., into Lake Erie 
 at Huron. It is navigable, by a crooked channel 6 or 
 7 m. from its mouth, and has a canal along its bor- 
 ders to Milan. It affords good water-power. 
 
 Huron River, Mich., rises in Oakland co., and 
 enters Lake Erie a few m. below the mouth of De- 
 troit R. It is abt. 60 m. long and with its branches, 
 affords extensive water-power.

 Idaho (from the Indian E-clah-hoe, Gem on the 
 Mountains), a N.W. territory, bounded N. by British 
 Columbia, E. by Montana and Wyoming, S. by Utah 
 and Nevada, and W. by Oregon and Washington. It 
 is situated between lat. 42° and 49° N., Ion. 111° and 
 117° 10' W., except that in the N.E. the Bitterroot 
 range separates it from Montana and the Snake R. 
 forms part of the W. boundary. The extreme length 
 N. and S. on the W.- boundary is 485 m. and along 
 the Wyoming border 140 m., and the breadth varies 
 from less than 50 m. on the N. to nearly 300 m. on 
 
 theS.; area, 84,290; mean elevation, abt. 4,700 ft, 
 The surface is very diversified ; the N. portion is 
 largely mountainous, with several fine broad valleys. 
 In the S. portion a large area within the great bend 
 of the Snake R. is occupied by an immense plain of 
 basalt. South of the Snake the country is an alterna- 
 tion of broad valleys and narrow abrupt mountain 
 ranges. The principal mountains are the Bitterroot 
 and Salmon R. chains, with their spurs and subordi- 
 nate ranges. They attain a height of from 8,000 to 
 nearly 10,000 ft. The Snake R. plain lies S. of these 
 mountains, extending E. and W. nearly across the 
 territory. This is a field of basalt, seamed and cre- 
 vassed, with little vegetation, and that consisting 
 principally of Artemisia. The soil here is a shifting 
 sand, and there is little surface water, as the streams 
 sink and flow underneath. The principal river is the 
 Snake, the south fork of the Columbia. It is a rapid 
 stream with numerous falls, one of which, the Sho- 
 shone, rivals Niagara in volume and height of descent, 
 which far surpasses the latter in magnificent pic- 
 turesqueness of surrounding scenery. Several of the 
 branches of the Snake, the Salmon, Clearwater, and 
 Spokane, are large streams, but are not navigable, 
 and are of value only for irrigation and mining pur- 
 poses. — The climate, like that of other portions of 
 the N.W., is characterized by great aridity of atmos- 
 phere and slight rainfall. In the S. the aridity is 
 such that large areas are almost desert ; but in the 
 mountainous regions of the N. the rainfall is much 
 greater, and agricultural operations can be carried on 
 to some extent without irrigation. The N. part, be- 
 iug principally mountainous, is covered with forests 
 of conifers, chiefly species of pine, spruce, fir, and 
 tamarack. In the open valleys the vegetation con- 
 sists mainly of the various kinds of grasses known 
 collectively as "hunch grass." A rough estimate 
 gives as the area covered by forest 40,000 sq. rn., 
 by useful grasses 25,000 sq. m., and by Artemisia 21,- 
 300 sq. m. The agricultural, grazing, and mining in- 
 terests of Idaho are but commencing their develop- 
 ment. In the valleys of the S. portion the Mormons 
 are raising abundant crops of cereals, with the aid of 
 irrigation. In the valleys of the lower Snake, the 
 Boise, Clearwater, Salmon, and Spokane Rs., wheat, 
 oats, rye, and other grains are cultivated to some 
 extant. Large portions of the territory are well 
 adapted for grazing, and this is now being turned 1o 
 account. The principal prod, for the year 1880 were 
 274,750 lbs. of barley, 16,408 of corn, 462,236 of oats, 
 and 540,589 of wheat. — The mineral wealth has not 
 yet, owing to difficulty of transportation, been devel- 
 oped to any great extent ; but it is known to be im- 
 portant. Gold and silver are found, the former both 
 in vein and in placer deposits. From 1863 to 1880 the 
 gold and silver deposited at the mints and assav 
 offices were gold §24.157,447; silver8727.282. The yield 
 for the year 1881 was gold 81,700,000; silver S1,"^00,- 
 000. The principal vein deposits now being worked 
 are in the Salmon R. and Owyhee Mts. Placers have 
 been worked in nearly every co. of the territory, 
 and have paid well. During the years 1880 and 1SS1, 
 many new and rich deposits have been discovered in 
 the Wood R. distnet, in the Salmon R. mountains, 
 and there has been a considerable influx of mining 
 population. Copper, iron, lead, coal, plumbago, 
 and quick silver are also found. There are also 
 mountains of sulphur, productive salt springs, 
 quarries of the finest marble and building stones, 
 large deposits of merchantable mica, and various 
 varieties of semi-preeious stones — The administra- 
 tion of the territory is in the hands of a governor, 
 secretary, and chief justice, all appointed by the. 
 President of the U. States, and a treasurer, comp- 
 troller, and superintendent of public instruction, 
 who, as well as the members of the two houses of 
 the legislature are elected by the people. — Idaho is

 divided into 13 cos., viz.: Ada, Alturas, Bear Lake, 
 Boise, Cassia, Idaho, Kootenai, Lemhi, Nez Perce, 
 Oneida, Owyhee, Shoshone, Washington. The prin- 
 cipal settlements are Boise (the cap.), Buenavista, 
 Idaho, Malade, and Silver City. The total number of 
 Indiaus is abt. 6,000, consisting of the tribes Nez 
 Perce, Bannock, Shoshone, Cceur d'Aleue, Spokane, 
 Pend'Oreille, and Kootenai. Most of them are settled 
 on reservations. Idaho had in 1882, 265 m. of railroad 
 in operation. The territory was established by act of 
 Congress, March 3, 1863, from parts of Montana and 
 Wyoming. Pop. in 1870. (exclusive of tribal Indians) 
 14,999; in 1880, 32,610 (of whom 21,818 males and 
 10,792 females, 22,630 natives and 9,974 of foreign

 Illinois, one of the central States, is bounded 
 N. by Wis., E. by Lake Michigan and Ind., S. by the 
 Ohio R. , separating it fiom Ky., and W. by the 
 Mississippi R. separating it from Mo. and Iowa. It 
 is situated between lat. 36° 59' and 42° 30' N., and 
 Ion. 83° 35' and 91° 40' W.; area, 56,000 sq.ni. The 
 length from N. to S. is 378 m., the greatest breadth 
 210 m. 111. is a great plain, with its highest section 
 in the N., on Lake Michigan ; thsnce it impercepti- 
 bly declines to the S.W., in which direction its prin- 
 cipal rivers flow to the Mississippi. A small tract in 
 the N.W., which includes the lead mines, is hilly 
 and broken, and there are bluffs along the Missis- 
 sippi, some of which rise 300 to 400 ft. A ridge ex- 
 tends across the S. end of the State, constituting the 
 fruit district of the region, called " Egypt," on ac- 
 count of its never failing fertility. On this ridge or 
 swell of clay land are grown all the varieties of ber- 
 ries, grapes, plums, peaches, apples, and all kinds of 
 vegetables in great profusion, which find prompt 
 sale in Chicago and the northern cos., by reason of 
 reaching market at early dates in the season. Ex- 
 cepting along the rivers, and where there has been 
 extensive tree planting, the greater part of the State 
 consists of a vast level or slightly undulating tree- 
 less prairies. To the eye the surface of 111. is as level 
 as that of an ocean in calm. The soil is of great fer- 
 tility, and much of it seemingly inexhaustible. Over 
 these prairies for hundreds of miles the plough never 
 touches stone, pebble, or even sand. A luxuriant 
 native grass formerly sustained herds of buffalo, and 
 from the still unbroken prairie surface are annually 
 mown thousands of tons of the wild grass for hay. 
 All the cereals, roots, fruits, grasses, and vegetables 
 of the temperate zone are grown in 111., and some of 
 the semi-tropicai productions, as cotton and amber- 
 cane. — The climate is marked by great ext remes. The 
 summers are very warm, the winters very cold. The 
 summer heat is generally, however,tempered hy fresh 
 breezes, so that farm labor is not there by, interrupted. 
 The mean temperature of the year in 40° lat. is abt. 54°, 
 of the summer 77°, and of the winter 33£°. At Beloit 
 the mean annual temperature is 474°, and at Cairo. 
 58J°, thus showing a marked difference between tbe 
 N.and S. extremities of the State. The climate is on 
 the whole salubrious, except in the low and swampy 
 bottom-lands, where chills and fever frequently pre- 
 vail. — Coal is found in nearly all parts of the State ; 
 it is bituminous, a small proportion being cannel. 
 The beds vary from 3£ to 8 ft. in thickness. The coal- 
 measures are part of the general formation extend- 
 ing from beyond the Mississippi R. in Mo., across 
 111. and parts of Ind. and O., and into Ky. It is es- 
 timated that three-fourths of the surface area of the 
 State are underlain by beds of coal. The coal mined 
 in the State during 1880 was 6.089,514 tons. Neat- 
 Galena, in the N.W. part of the State, are lead mines 
 which have been worked forhalf a century, and which 
 at one time made Galena the most prosperous city in 
 the State. Salt springs are found in the S.E. cos. 
 Stone suitable for building is found in various parts 
 of the State. An inexhaustible field of limestone, 
 called "Lemont marble," is found near Chicago, 
 and has been largelv used in rebuilding that city. — 
 In 1880 there were 26,174,566 acres of improved, and 
 8,204,503 of unimproved lands. The improved lands

 The live stock had a value of 8141,501.394, and 
 comprised 1,067,220 horses, 124,527 mules, 709,308 
 milch cows, oxen and other cattle, 1,222,947, 1,155,- 
 232 sheep, and 3,202 swine. — The statistics of manuf. 
 for 18S2 gave as results 14,549 establishments, em- 
 ploying 144,727 operatives, capital invested, 8140,- 
 652*066, wages paid during the year, 857,429,085, 
 value of materials, 8289,843,907, value of products, 
 8414,864,673. The abundance of coal, the proximity 
 to the Lake Superior iron and copper mines, the un- 
 limited means of transportation, the supply of lum- 
 ber, the cheapness of food, the superior water-power 
 in various parts of the State, have all tended to 
 make 111. a large and convenient seat of manuf. Its 
 iron aud steel establishments rank with the largest 
 in the country. 111. ranks fourth in the Union as a 
 manuf. State. — The State is now admirably supplied 
 with railroads, their extent reaching 8,325 m. in 1SS2. 
 They cross every co. in the State, indeed, they are so 
 numerous and so interlaced that there are few, if 
 any, localities more than 10 m. from a railroad, 
 while a large proportion of the shipping points have 
 the benefit of more than one route by which to ship 
 and receive merchandise. In addition to the railroad 
 traffic, there is much business done by steamboats 
 at Cairo, East St. Louis, Alton, Quincy, Rock Island, 
 and other points on the Ohio aud Mississippi Rs., 
 though transportation by river has declined much of 
 late years. The Illinois and Michigan Canal is 93 
 m. long, and connects Lake Michigan at Chicago 
 with the Illinois R., at the head of navigation of that 
 river. This canal has cost 817,000,000, but is now too 
 small for the service needed. The State has expended 
 much money improving the navigation of the Illi- 
 nois by locks and dams, and this improvement when 
 completed, with the enlargement of the canal to the 
 capacity of steamboat navigation, will be one of the 
 most extensive works of interior water communica- 
 tion in the world, being over 400 m. long, and con- 
 necting the waters of the Atlantic, through the St. 
 Lawrence R. and the lakes, and through the Mis- 
 sissippi R., with the Gulf of Mexico. The other rivers 
 are the Kankakee, Des Plaines, Rock, Kaskaskia, 
 Embarras, Little Wabash, Big Muddy, and Chicago. 
 —The public school system "is liberally supported. 
 The permanent school fund yields abt. 860,000, to 
 which the State adds 81,000^000 annuallv, and this 
 is distributed among the counties. In addition each 
 school district levies'such taxes as may be needed for 
 its schools, and may borrow money to build school- 
 houses. In 1880 the receipts of revenue for schools 
 amounted to 86. 142,340, the expenditure to 86,190,743. 
 Ihe number of children of the school age (6 to 21 
 years) was 1,000,694, of these 693,334 were enrolled as 
 attending the public schools, and 47,695 as attending 
 private and parochial s?hools. The whole number of 
 school districts in the State was 11,874; male teachers, 
 8.973, female teachers, 12,737. The State has establish- 
 ed two normal universities, at Normal, M'Lean co., 
 and at Carbondale, Jackson co. There is an industrial 
 
 university at Champaign, maintained and liberally en- 
 dowed by the State. There are also several other uni- 
 versities and colleges, including medical and theo- 
 logical, iu various parts of the State. The State main- 
 tains 4 hospitals for the insane, at Jacksonville, El- 
 gin, Anna, and Kankakee : an institution for educat- 
 ing the blind, and one for educating the deaf aud 
 dumb, both at Jacksonville, an asylum for imbecile 
 children, an eye and ear infirmary, a home for sol- 
 diers' orphans, and a correctional or reformatory 
 school for boys. The annual expenditure for the 
 maintenance of these charities is abt. 81.000,000. 
 — The State is divided into 102 cos., viz.: Adams, 
 Alexander, Bond, Boone, Brown, Bureau, Calhoun, 
 Carroll, Cass, Champaign, Christian, Clark, Clay, 
 Clinton, Coles, Cook, Crawford, Cumberland, De 
 Kalb, De Witt, Douglas, Du Page, Edgar, Edwards,

 had a pop. exceeding 10,000 : Chicago, 503.304, Peo- 
 ria, 20,315, Quincy, "27.275, Springfield (the cap.), 
 19,746, Bloomiugton, 17,184, Joliet, 16,145, Rockford,

 bury, 11,446, Jacksonville, 10,927; Belleville, 10.6S2, 
 East St. Louis, 10,054 ; and Freeport, 10,016. The 
 legislative power is vested in a senate of 51 mem- 
 bers and a house of representatives of 153 mem- 
 bers. The sessions are biennial. The governor r.nd 
 other executive officers are elected for 4 years. There 
 is an elective judiciaiy. The supreme court con- 
 sists of seven judges, chosen for a term of 9 years. The 
 circuit judges are elected for a term of 6 years. 
 There is a county court for each co. —The State is 
 free from all debts. Taxation is imposed by a rate 
 levied on all real and personal property, according 
 to a previous valuation, made by local assessors, re- 
 vised by county boaids. and again revised and equal- 
 ized by a State board. The total assessment or val- 
 uation of the property in the State for taxation aver- 
 ages not more than one-fourth of the value at which 
 the property can be sold. The constitution limits the 
 rate of taxation (except to pay debts) by cos., to 75 
 cents on each S100 of the official valuation. The 
 same valuation governs all taxation, the maxium 
 rate being fixed by law. The valuation of all the 
 property in the State for taxable purposes for the 
 year 1880 was S7S3,616,394.— Father Marquette, a 
 French Jesuit, visited the Illinois Indians in 1673. 
 Mission stations were established at Kaskaska and 
 Peoria in 1673. All the French possessions E. of the 
 Mississippi R., were ceded to Great Britain in 1763, 
 and 111. then became a possession of the colony oi 
 Va. In 1809 it was erected into a Territory ; and 
 in Dec. 1818, was admitted into the Union as a 
 State. On its admission to the Union a constitution 
 providing a form of government was adopted ; in 
 1848 this was superceded by another, and this again 
 was set aside in 1870 bv the "third and present con- 
 stitution. Pop. 1810. 12.282 ; in 1830, 157,445 : in 1840,

 Illinois Rivet*, the largest river in the State, 
 , to which it gives its name. It is formed iu Grundy 
 \ co., in the N.E. part of the State, abt. 45 m. S.W. 
 Lake Michigan, by the union of Kankakee and Des 
 PlainesRs. It, flows nearly W. to Hennepin, in Putnam 
 Co., and thence S.W. and finally S. until it unites 
 with the Mississippi between Calhoun and Jersey cos., 
 20 m. above the mouth of the Missouri. It is abt. 500 
 m. long, and is navigable at high water for 245 m. It 
 is deep and broad, in several places expanding into 
 basins which might almost be called Likes. Peoria, 
 the most important city on its banks, is built on the 
 shore of one of these basins. Its principal affluents 
 are the Fox, Spoon, Crooked Creek, the Mackinaw, 
 Sangamon, and Vermilion. Above the mouth of the 
 Vermilion, in La Salle co., it is obstructed by rapids, 
 and a canal has been built from this point to Chicago, 
 a distance of 96 m., which affords uninterrupted water 
 communication between the lakes and the Mississippi. 
 The Illinois was ascended by Marquette in 1673, and in 
 1682 La Salle navigated the whole course of the river.

 Indiaaaa, one of the central St-ates, is bounded 
 N. by Lake Michigan and the State of Mich, (the 
 bouudarj line being 10 m. N. of the S. extreme of the 
 lake), E. 'by Ohio, S. bv the Ohio R., which separates it 
 from Ky., W. by the Wabash R., and then by a due 
 N. line from the town of Vincennes, separating it 
 from 111. It is situated bet. lat. 37° 47' and 41° 46' N. 
 and Ion. 84° 49' and 88° 2' W. The State is in the 
 form of a parallelogram, 276 m. long and 140 m.

 wide; area, 35,910 sq. m. Most of the State is level 
 or gently rolling, except along the Ohio, where the 
 plain has been deeply grooved by the affluent 
 streams into hills and valleys. There are no eleva- 
 tions that could properly be termed mountains. 
 From careful surveys, the mean altitude of the State 
 is estimated at 735 feet above sea-level. It is well 
 watered by numerous streams and rivers, but, with 
 the exception of the Ohio and Wabash, few of them are 
 navigable. The Wabash is the largest river which 
 has its course mainly within the State ; aDd, together 
 with its branches, it drains three-fourths of the en- 
 tire surface. The Ohio forms the entire S. boundary 
 of the State. The other principal rivers of Ind. are 
 the White (the principal tributary of the Wabash), 
 the Maumee, and the upper St. Joseph. — A part of the 
 great coal-field of 111. extends into Ind., covering an 
 area of over 7,000 sq. m. in the W. and S.W. parts, 
 furnishing 7 workable seams, at a depth of 50 to 220 
 ft., and averaging 80 ft. below the surface; the 
 quality is from fair to good; an area of 600 sq. m. in 
 this field yields a superior "block" cf splint coal, 
 which is used in blast furnaces as it i-omes from the 
 mine, without coking, and is well adapted for the 
 preparation of Bessemer steel. The quantity of coal 
 mined in 1880 was 1,449,496 tons, valued at $2,143,093. 
 Near Leavenworth, in the S. part of the State, there 
 is a remarkable calcareous cavern, the Wyandotte 
 Cave. One of its chambers is 350 feet long and 245 in 
 height. It abounds with stalactites and stalagmites 
 of great variety and size. Inexhaustible beds of ex- 
 cellent limestone, fire clay, potter's clay, kaolin, and 
 lime, as well as paving and building stone, are 
 found in the S.E. parts of the State. — Along all the 
 rivers, except the Ohio, there are rich alluvial de- 
 posits from 2 to 4 ft. deep. Large crops of corn have 
 been produced for 50 years in succession. Portions 
 of the Ohio Valley are hilly and sterile, but Ind. has 
 an unusually small percentage of waste land. The 
 climate is 'somewhat milder than that of the 
 same latitudes on the Atlantic coast. The winters 
 are often very cold but of short duration, and heavy 
 snows rarely cover the ground. The summers are 
 hot, and on the whole salubrious. The difference in 
 temperature between the N. and S. portions of the 
 State is considerable. At Logansport the mean an- 
 nual temperature is nearly 53°; "the maximum on 
 the warmest day 102°, and the minimum on the 
 coldest — 10°. — Agriculture is the chief branch of 
 industry, the climate and soil being suited to the 
 growth of cereals, fruits, and grasses. The principal 
 products for the year 1880 are shown in the follow- 
 ing table:

 milk, 122,157,633 galls.; wool, 4,836,648 lbs. The same 
 year (1880) the domestic animals numbered — horses, 
 702,576, mules, 54,664, milch cows, 439,148, oxen 
 and other cattle, 764,166, sheep, 1,029,570, and 2,186,- 
 000 swine; total value, §81,437,549— The growth 
 of mauuf. interests have been very marked dur- 
 ing the last decade. In 1880 there were in Ind. 
 11,198 manuf. establishments, employing 69,508 
 hands, capital invested, $65,748,962, wages paid 
 during the year, $21,960,888, value of materials, 
 $100,262,917; value of products, $148,006,411. A few 
 of the leading industries were lumber, flour, woolen 
 goods, agricultural implements, iron, machinery, fur- 
 niture, cars (freight and passenger), and boots and 
 shoes. — Ind. is interlaced with a complete net-work 
 of railroads, traversing nearly every county. In 
 1882 there were 56 lines (or branches) of railroads, 
 having in the States 4,764 m. of road in operation. 
 There are 2 canals in the State. The Wabash and 
 Erie, from Evansville to Toledo, a part of the way by 
 slack water navigation of the Wabash and Maumee, is 
 467 m. in length, 379 of which are in lud. It is i ow un- 
 used beyond Lafayette. The White Water Canal is 
 75 m. in length, from Lawrenceburg on the Ohio to 
 Hagerstown. It is of more service than the other. 
 — A general system of free instruction extends 
 from the primary school to the State univer- 
 sity, under the direction of a State superintendent 
 and a State board of education. The school fund 
 amounts to $8,936,022. In 1880 the number of school- 
 houses was 9,380 (411 built during the year); youth 
 of school age, 708,801; enrolled in public schools, 
 503,892; average daily attendance, 312,143; male and 
 female teachers in public schools, 13,590. The State 
 university at Bloomiugton is open to pupils of both 
 sexes. It has departments of law, medicine, military 
 science and civil engineering, in addition to the regu- 
 lar collegiate course. Purdue university received 
 the landscript granted by congress for an agricultu- 
 ral college. This fund amounts to $340,000, and the 
 entire property of the institution is valued at $510,- 
 000. Ind. has 6 universities so named. 16 colleges, 1 
 school of theology, 3 schools of law, 2 medical and 
 2 normal schools. There are 2 state prisons, the 
 northern at Michigan City the southern at Jefferson- 
 ville, each having accommodations for about 400 
 prisoners. The State institute for the blind, the 
 asylum for the insane, the institute for the deaf 
 and dumb, and the reformatory institution for 
 women and girls are at Indianapolis. There is also 
 a soldiers' home at Knightsville and a house of ref utre 
 at Plainfield. All the above institutions are support- 
 ed by the State. — The State is divided into 92 cos., 
 viz.: Adams, Allen, Bartholomew, Benton, Blackford, 
 Boone, Brown, Carroll, Cass, Clarke, Clay, Clinton, 
 Crawford, Daviess. Dearborn, Decatur, De Kalb,

 Feb. 10, 1851. The general assembly consists of a 
 senate of 50 members elected for 4 years, and a 
 house of representatives of 100 members elected for 
 2 years. The legislative sessions are biennial. The 
 governor (salary §8,000), is elected for 4 years. 
 The State election is held on the second Tuesday of 
 October in even years. The judicial power is vested in 
 a supreme, a circuit, and a superior court. Ind. sends 
 13 representatives to the national congress, and has 
 therefore 15 electoral votes. The State debt, on Oc- 
 tober 30, 1882, amounted to $4,87(5,608. The receipts 
 into the State treasury during the preceding year 
 were $3,808,494.22, and the disbursements $3,110,- 
 424.70. The total valuation of real and personal 
 property, in 1881, was $805.202,792.— The Ind. terri- 
 tory, which was originally the property of the Miami 
 confederacy of Indiana, was claimed by France on 
 account of La Salle's discovery of the Mississippi, 
 in 1682. As early as 1702 a mission was established 
 at Vincennes. In 1763 the territory was ceded to the 
 British. The early settlers suffered greatly from the 
 Indians. Gen. Harrison broke the power of the sav- 
 ages by defeating Tecumseh at the battle of Tippe- 
 canoe, Nov. 7, 1811. The State was admitted into 
 the Union Dec. 11, 1816. In 1881 the legislature 
 passed a law prohibiting the manufacture and sale 
 of intoxicating liquors. Pop. in 1800, 5,641; in 1820, 
 147,178, in 1840. 685,866; in 1860, 1,350,428; in 1870;

 bituminous coal. The soil is moderately fertile. The 
 chief prod, in 1880 were 309,753 bush, of wheat, 914,- 
 695 of corn, 775,383 of oats, 77,166 of rye, and 109, lc>9

 Indianapolis, Ind., cap. of the State and of 
 Marion co., is situated at the confluence of Fall 
 Creek and White R., 824 m. W. of New York by 
 rail, and 194 m. S.E. Chicago. The streets and 
 avenues are 90 feet wide except Washington, the 
 main street, which is 130. The city now extends 
 4 m. in length and 3 in width. It is built upon a 
 level plain and surrounded by a fertile country. In 
 1847 the first railway entered the city. Within a few 
 years thereafter other lines were constructed, until 
 now 13 main lines converge in the Union depot. 
 About 100 passenger trains, connected with every part 
 of the country, enter and depart daily. The numer- 
 ous tracts being on a level with the surface of the 
 streets, the obstruction and danger at the numerous 
 crossings became very great on account of the in- 
 crease of railway traffic, so that in 1877 a loop line, 
 called the " Belt," had to be made passing round 
 the city, to connect the various railroads. By means 
 of it the " through freight cars " are conveyed past 
 the city without blocking the traffic. Indianapolis 
 is in the centre of the swine-producins: region, and 
 pork-packing is one of the chief industries of the 
 
 city. The number packed in 1880 was 677,809. It is 
 also largely engaged in the grain trade. The rail- 
 ways have been of greatest service to Indianapolis, 
 compensating for its want of water transit. The 
 manuf. and mercantile interests, which are large 
 and increasing, are the natural result of the city's 
 extensive railroad connections. A system of graded 
 free schools is maintained all the year. The city 
 school property is valued at $1,041,000. In 1871 a 
 public library was established, aud is supported by 
 taxation, which now contains 36,461 volumes, and 
 is rapidly increasing. The masonic temple, odd- 
 fellows hall, post-office, U.S. arsenal, and chamber 
 of commerce are handsome buildings. The Marion 
 county court-house, standing on a public square in 
 the heart of the city, was completed in 1877 at a 
 cost of $1,411,534. The exterior is of Indiana lime- 
 stone, the interior of iron and marble, with frescoed 
 walls and ceilings. Its dimensions are 150 by 286 
 ft., and 240 ft. to the top of the dome. The princi- 
 pal benevolent institutions of the State, viz., the 
 institution for the education of the blind, that for 
 the deaf aud dumb, and the hospital for the insane 
 are located here ; they are handsome and commodious 
 buildings, the last having accommodation for 1,313 
 patients. The State reformatory for women aud 
 girls, where all female offenders are imprisoned, 
 adjoins the city. The institution is under the man- 
 agement of a board of control, composed of women 
 chosen by the governor of the State. In 1877 the 
 State began the erection of a new State house, to be 
 completed in 1888, at a cost of $2,000,000. This will 
 be one of the most imposing capitol buildings in the 
 United States. The assessed value of property in 
 1880 was $50,254,934. Indianapolis had its name given 
 by act of the Legislature on Jan. 6, 1821, it was in- 
 corporated in 1836, and received a city charter in 1847.

 vessels ply regularly to New York, and there are 
 many other domestic ports with which it has a trade. 
 About ten vessels bring lumber from Florida and 
 Louisiana. Cattle, woof, hides, cotton, &c. are ex- 
 tensively shipped from this point. The town has a 
 bank, and several large importing and wholesale es- 
 
 tablishments. On Sept. 15, 1875, a severe storm, last- 
 ing Ave days, visited the coast from Galveston to In- 
 dianola, causing t he waters to rise and flood the more 
 exposed places, sweeping away several small villages, 
 with great loss of life. Indianola was submerged, and 
 except the larger business houses was entirely swept

 Indian Territory, a southern central 
 tract of land, which, by act of congress passed 
 June 4, 1834, has been set apart as a permanent 
 residence for th6 Indian tribes which have been or 
 may be removed from the States or Territories of the 
 Union. It is bounded N. by Colorado and Kansas, 
 E. by Missouri aud Arkansas, S. by Texas, and W. 
 by Texas and New Mexico. It is situated between 
 lat. 33° 35' aud 37° N. and Ion. 94° 20' and 103° W. 
 The greatest length from E. to W. is 465 m., the 
 greatest breadth 285 m. Estimated area, 69,000 sq. 
 m. The E. portion is fertile and well watered, hav- 
 ing an annual rainfall of 40 to 50 inches, and a mean 
 annual temperature of about 60°. The surface is 
 mainly rolling prairie, with broad stretches of rich 
 land along the streams, and an abundance of tim- 
 ber. This section is separated from the W. part, 
 which presents a different aspect, by a broad belt of 
 forest, known as the " Cross Timbers," which ex- 
 tends nearly across the Territory in a N. and S. 
 direction. Its breadth ranges from 40 to 60 m. 
 West of this singular strip of forest the country as- 
 sumes the appearance of the " Great Plains," — that 
 long incline which stretches eastward from the base 
 of the Rocky Mountains. The surface is a monot- 
 onous, rolling, treeless expanse. The valleys are 
 shallow, and the dividing ridges are broad and

 slightly marked. The climate is comparatively dry, 
 the average annual rainfall beingbutSO to 25 inches ; 
 and irrigation is needed for the successful cultiva- 
 tion of most crops. Timber is found only in the 
 river valleys, on the faces of bluffs and among the 
 hills. The generally level surface of prairies and 
 plains is broken iu the S. and S. E. parts of the Ter- 
 ritory by ranges and groups of hills, which rise 
 from a few hundred to 1,500 ft. above the surround- 
 ing country. These hills, known as the San Bois 
 Hills, Shawnee Hills, Wichita Mountains, etc., form 
 a part of the Ozark Mounta'ns. The principal rivers 
 are the Arkansas with its branches, the Neosho, the 
 Salt and Red Forks, and the Canadian, with its 
 North Fork, and, in the S. part of the Territory, the 
 Red R., which forms the boundary with Texas, and 
 its branch, the Washita. All these are of little or no 
 importance as regards navigation. The E. part of 
 the Territory is well watered, but the W. part, ex- 
 cept at times of flood, in late spring and early sum- 
 mer, has few flowing streams. — The Territory con- 
 tains many reservations, or defined portions of land 
 set apart and occupied by single tribes, or by several 
 tribes gathered into one. At each of these reserva- 
 tions is an agent, appointee, by the president and 
 confirmed by the senate, who represents the U. 
 States in a general supervision of the interests of the 
 several tribes. The report of the commissioner of 
 Indian affairs for the ) ear 1880 shows the existence 
 of eight agencies in the Territory. These are : 
 Cheyenne and Arapaho agency, including the tribes 
 bearing these names ; pop. 5,496, engaged in agri- 
 culture 527, children in school 208. Kiowa, Coman- 
 che and Wichita agency, including the Kiowa, 
 Comanche, Wichita, Apache, Waco, Towaconie, 
 Keechie, Caddo and Delaware tribes ; pop. 4,117, en- 
 gaged in agriculture 750, children in school 229. 
 Osage agency, including the Osage, Kaw and 
 Quap iv tribes; pop. 2,645, engaged in agriculture 
 600, children in school 220. The Pawnee agency ; 
 pop. 1,440, engaged in agriculture 200, children in 
 school 200. The Ponca agency, including the 
 Ponca (in part) and Nez Perce tribes ; pop. 900, en- 
 gaged in agriculture 50, children in school 75. The

 Wyandott, confederated Peoria and Miami, Quapaw, 
 Ottawa, Modoc, Stray Black Bob and Pottawatomie ; 
 pop. 1,111, engaged in agriculture 126, children in 
 school 243. The Sac and Fox agency, including the 
 Absentee Shawnee, Sac and Fox of the Mississippi, 
 Mexican Kickapoo, Citizen Pottawatomie, Moko- 
 hoko band of Sac and Fox tribes ; pop. 1 ,933, en- 
 gaged in agriculture 1,029, children in school 125. 
 The Union agency, including the Cherokee, Choc- 
 taw, Creek, Chickasaw and Seminole tribes, known 
 as civilized Indians; pop. 60,560. All these five 
 tribes wear citizens' dress, as do some in all the 
 other reservations. — The tribes included in the eight 
 ageucies have in their reservations 31,105,920 acres 
 of land, of which 10,246,405 are suitable for cultiva- 
 tion, leaving unoccupied and unappropriated within 
 the limits or different treaty reservations 9,991,169 
 acres. The five civilized tribes had under cultiva- 
 tion in 1880 273,000 acres. They raised 565,400 bush, 
 of wheat. 2,015,000 of corn, 200,500 of oats and bar- 
 ley, 336,700 of vegetables, cut 176,500 tons of hay. 
 They owned 45,500 horses, 5,500 mules, 272,000 cat- 
 tle, 190,000 swine, 32,400 sheep, and raised 10,550 
 bales of cotton. The other tribes in this territory 
 had under cultivation 16,931 acres ; raised 5,840 
 bush, of wheat, 90,774 of corn, and 10,441 of vegeta- 
 bles. They owned 19,092 horses and 12,684 cattle.— 
 Experience shows that Indian children are as bright 
 and teachable as average white children of the same 
 ages, and while the progress in the work of civiliz- 
 ing adult Indians without any educational advan- 
 tages is a slow process, the progress of youth 
 
 trained in the schools is of the most hopeful charac- 
 ter. Of the children in these five tribes, 6,250 males 
 were in school in 1880, females not reported. 
 Amount of tribal funds expended for their educa- 
 tion, §156,356 during the year. The total pop. of the 
 eight agencies in 1880 was 78,202.

 from N. to S. ; area, 55.475 sq. m. The whole State 
 is remarkably level and contains no mountains. 
 Starting from the Mississippi R., the ground grad- 
 ually rises toward the water-shed between the two 
 great river systems of the Mississippi and Missouri, 
 where the elevation is 967 feet above the level of the 
 Mississippi. The latter river is 444 feet above the 
 sea-level at the mouth of the Des Moines, and the 
 Missouri at Council Bluffs is 1,023 feet above the 
 sea. The highest land in the State, at Spirit Lake, 
 near the Minnesota line, has an elevation of 1,694 
 feet. The N. E. section is broken and irregular, 
 and the channels of the rivers are cut deep in the 
 rocks. Bluffs from 300 to 400 feet high extend 
 along the Iowa R. Isolated " mounds " in the lead 
 region attain a height of nearly 500 feet. The bot- 
 tom lands along the rivers are heavily timbered 
 with elm, black walnut, white and burr oak, poplar, 
 ash, maple, hickory, locust, sycamore, linden, Cot- 
 tonwood, etc. About 3,552,880 acres are in timber, 
 giving one acre of woodland to ten acres of prairie. 
 Trees grow with great rapidity when planted on the 
 rairies, and there is said to be more wood in the 
 tate now than when it was first settled. The Mis- 
 sissippi R. winds along the E. border for 450 m., and 
 the Missouri along the W. border for two-thirds the 
 breadih of the State. The principal river flowing 
 within the State is the Des Moines, which rises in a 
 group of lakes near the border of Minnesota and 
 runs in a S. E. direction for 450 m., forming the S. 
 boundary of Iowa for25 m. It is navigable for about 
 half its length. The Iowa R., 300 m. long, is naviga- 
 ble for 80 m. Its main branch is the Cedar R. There 
 are many beautiful lakes in the N. counties. — It is 
 estimated that about 7,000 sq. m. are underlaid 
 by the coal-measures. Within this area coal beds 
 of workable thickness and quality have been found 
 at Fort Dodge, Moingona, Des Moines aud Oska- 
 loosa, where they are being extensively worked, 
 the product for 1880 being 1,442,333 tons, valued at 
 $2,273,155. The coal is bituminous, no anthracite 
 having been found in the State. The N. E. part of 
 Iowa is included within the great lead regiou of the 
 Upper Mississippi, aud, although the palmy days of 
 the mines of that region are over, the product is yet 
 very important. — The climate resembles in its essen- 
 tial features that of the rest of the prairie States, ex- 
 cepting that towards the W. the aridity of the atmos- 
 phere and the decreased rainfall characteristic of the 
 great plains begin to be perceptible. The annual 
 rainfall ranges from 24 lo 44 inches, with an average 
 of about 36 inches. The mean annual temperature 
 ranges from 42° to 52°, the summer mean from 66° 
 to 79 , and the winter mean from 14° to 27°, showing 
 a difference between the summer and winter tem- 
 peratures of 52°. The highest single observed tem- 
 peratures have been 95° to 105°, and the lowest 18° 
 to 33° below zero, S.E. portion has the mildest 
 and most equable temperature, as well as the 
 greatest rainfall. Northward and westward the 
 temperature becomes lower and extremes greater. — 
 The soil is extremely fertile, whether drift, bluff or 
 alluvial. The drift, whose name explains its origin, 
 covers the greater part of the State. It is a dark 
 loam, one to two feet in depth, and of almost inex- 
 haustible fertility. The bluff soil or loess occupies 
 the country bordering upon the valley of the Mis- 
 souri. It is supposed to be a subaerial deposit, 
 brought by the prevalent westerly winds from the 
 plains of Nebraska and Dakota, and deposited here 
 near the borders of the humid region. It has a 
 great depth, reaching 200 feet in some Instances, 
 and is everywhere extremely rich. — The alluvial 
 soil, found in the valleys and bottom lands, is the 
 deposit of the streams, and varies in composition 
 with the country which the streams have traversed 
 above. Much of it on the Missouri and its branches 
 
 is composed of loess, while that on the Mississippi 
 is mainly altered drift deposits. The agricultural 
 interest is by far the largest and most important of 
 the State. In the production of corn and barley it 
 ranks first, and of wheat fifth, among the States of 
 the Union. The principal products for the year 1880 
 were as follows :

 Stock raising is an important, lucrative and grow- 
 ing business. The fertile prairies, covered with the 
 most nutritious grasses and watered with clear and 
 never-failing streams, afford a range of pasturage 
 unsurpassed in excellence or extent. The number 
 of farm animals in 1880 were : 809,536 horses, 45,594 
 mules, 782,460 milch cows, 1,411,512 oxen and other 
 cattle, 463,488 sheep, and 2,778,400 hogs— total value 
 §123,316,670. The average value of cleared farming 
 land in the State in 1880 was $27.30 per acre ; of timber 
 land, $39.36. The increased value of the latter is due 
 to the scarcity of forests. The average monthly wages 
 paid to agricultural laborers during the same year 
 was $23.26 ; average daily wages on transient em- 
 ployment, $2.01. — In 1880 there were 6,921 manu- 
 facturing establishments, employing 28,372 hands ; 
 capital invested, $43,,987,886 ; wages paid during the 
 year, $9,725,962 ; value of materials, $48,702,311 ; 
 value of products, $71,045,926. The principal indus- 
 tries were agricultural implements, brick and tile, 
 flour and grist mill products, lumber, butter and 
 cheese in factories, slaughtering and packing. — 
 For means of communication and transportation 
 Iowa is dependent almost entirely upon its rail- 
 roads and its two bounding rivers. It has no canals, 
 if we except the short one around the Di s Moines 
 rapids. In 1880 there were 45 railroads, working 
 4,779 miles of track, with a total capital stock of 
 $60,000,000, and a funded debt of $44,400,000. The 
 total amount invested in railroads exceeded $100,- 
 000,000. The total gross earning of the companies 
 from passengers, freight and mails were, $5,218,000, 
 of which $1,415,000, or 27 per cent., were net earn- 
 ings. This is but 2 3-10 per cent, on the capital 
 stock. — Iowa, in her educational system, ranks as 
 one of the best in the Union. She has a permanent 
 school fund yielding an annual income of 8 per cent., 
 which is applied to the education of her youth. In 
 addition, district aud county school taxes are levied. 
 The State supports one university, located at Iowa 
 City, and a school of agriculture and the mechanical 
 arts, located near Ames, in Story co., for both sexes 
 The State university comprises academical, normal, 
 medical and law departments. The annual expendi- 
 tures for public-school purposes is upward of 
 $5,000,000. The number of teachers employed in 
 1880 was 21,598, school children 586,556. There are 
 11,037 school-houses, valued at $9,227,743. The 
 various religious denominations have also estab-

 Jersey City, N~. J., cap. of Hudson co., on 
 the right or VV. bank of the Hudson R., at its en- 
 trance in New York Bay, and opposite the S. portion 
 of New York, with which it is connected by 5 ferries. 
 It is laid out irregularly, owing to its being an aggre- 
 gation of three formerly distinct municipalities. 
 Many of the streets are broad and well paved, and 
 the city is provided with efficient gas, water, and 
 sewerage systems. It has few striking buildings, the 
 most prominent structures being the immense grain 
 elevators near the river, 3 hospitals, an orphans' 
 home, and the public school buildings, 21 in number. 
 The public schools are supported by State and city 
 taxes, and administered by a board of education. 
 The trade of the city is very considerable ; but, as 
 it is embraced iu the New York customs district, sep- 
 arate returns are not made. The fact that it is a ter- 
 miuus for 3 lines of ocean steamers, 5 trunk lines of 
 railroads, 7 lesser railroads, and the Morris Canal, 
 greatly facilitates the transport of coal, iron, &c, 
 and materially fosters its industries. Jersey City has 
 iron foundries, iron, steel, and zinc works, boiler 
 yards, machine shops, railway plant manuf., tobacco 
 factories, breweries, and other establishments which 
 turn out watches, glass, crucibles, sugar, soap, can- 
 dles, and a large variety of hardware and other ar- 
 ticles. The extensive abattoirs at Long Dock are 
 noteworthy for their excellent management. The 
 " City of Jersey " was incorporated in 1829 ; but in 
 1851 it received another charter, under its present 
 name. Its very rapid growth has been largely owing 
 to its absorption of the tps. and cities of Van Voorst in 
 1851, Hudson and Bergen in 1870, and Greenville in 
 1872. The pop. iu 1850 was 6,856 ; in 1870, 82,516 ; in 
 1880, 120,722, making it the 17th city in point of pop. 
 in the U. States.

 the E. line of the State, is 750 ft. above the sea-level; 
 the average altitude of the W. boundary is abt. 3,500 
 ft. The broad prairie surface is diversified by an end- 
 less succession of valleys and woodlands. The great 
 central valley is traversed by the Kansas or Kaw R. 
 which, inclusive of the Sinokyhill branch, extends 
 the entire length of the State. Lateral valleys on the 
 N. are formed by the Saline, Solomon, Republican, 
 and Blue Rs., and other smaller streams. Another 
 broad valley is formed in the S. half of the State by 
 the Arkansas R. with lateral valleys on the N. trav- 
 ersed by the Walnut, Little Arkansas, Pawnee Fork, 
 and other streams. The S.E. portion contains the 
 important Neosho valley, and the smaller valleys of 
 the Osage and Verdigris. In the extreme S.W. and 
 along the S. boundary are the valley of the Cimarron, 
 and a network of the S. tributaries of the Arkansas. 
 Numerous small affluents of the Missouri enrich and 
 diversify the N.E. quarter of the State. The streams 
 of Kansas are usually fed by perennial springs, and as 
 a rule, the E. and middle portions of the State are 
 well watered. The W. part is more elevated, and 
 water is less abundant. — The surface presents three 
 distinct geological sections. The E. portion of the 
 State belongs to the carboniferous system, in which 
 are found inexhaustible beds of valuable bituminous 
 coal, often at shallow depths or cropping out on the 
 surface. It is mined in 24 cos., the product for the 
 year 1880 being 763,297 tons valued at $1,497,268. 
 The central portion belongs to the triassic forma- 
 tion, with magnesian limestone, ferruginous sand- 
 stone, and gypsum as the representative rocks. 
 The W. portion of the State belongs to the cre- 
 taceous formation, in which chalks and a species of 
 native quicklime are very prominent in the river 
 bluffs. Lead mines are extensively worked in the S.E. 
 portion of the State, and prosperous towns and cities 
 are growing up in connection with these mines. In 
 the central region, salt is produced from wells, and 
 appears in occasional marshes. The salt of the S.W. 
 is found in beds and dry incrustations, varying in 
 thickness from a few inches to 2 ft. The salts of 
 Kansas are remarkably free from lime and other im- 
 purities. The lignite found near the Colorado line 
 makes a valuable domestic fuel. — The climate of 
 Kansas is exceptionally salubrious. Extremes of 
 heat and cold occur, as in all open prairie countries, 
 but as a rule the winters are dry and mild, while ihe 
 summer heats are tempered by the perpetual prairie 
 breezes.The summer nights are invariably cool and re- 
 freshing. The mean annual temperature at Fort Biley 
 for 23 years has been 53°. The average annual rain- 
 fall at the city of Lawrence for six years (1875-1880), 
 was 32.68 inches.— The soil of the upland prairies is 
 generally a deep rich clay loam, of a dark color. The 
 bottom lands near the streams are a black sandy 
 loam ; and the intermediate lands, or "second bot- 
 toms," show a rich and deep black loam, containing 
 very little sand. These soils are all easily cultivated, 
 free from stones, and exceedingly productive. There 
 are exceptional spots on the upland prairies compos- 
 ed of stiff clay, not as easily cultivated, but very 
 productive when properly managed and enriched.

 Timber is abundant along the streams in the eastern 
 section of the State, but is less plentiful in the cen- 
 tral portioD, and very scarce in some parts of the 
 west. The varieties of timber embrace oak, elm, 
 black walnut, cottonwood, mulberry, box, elder, 
 willow, hickory, sycamore, white ash, and other 
 hard and soft woods. The bright climate and pure 
 atmosphere are admirably adapted to the growth of 
 the apple, pear, peach, plum, grape, and cherry. The 
 smaller fruits also, with scarce, an exception, flour- 
 ish finely. Trees never suffer from sodden or water- 
 soaked roots, and very seldom from the winter's 
 cold, when reasonable judgment and care have been 
 exercised in selecting and managing the grounds. 
 The number of bearing trees in the State in 1882 has 
 been estimated abt. as follows : — 2,500,000 apple, 
 100,000 pear, 8,000,000 peach , 200,000 pi u m , an d 1,000,- 
 000 cherry trees. The planting of trees is still on the 
 increase, and the older orchards are very profitable. 
 The principal agricultural prod, for the year 1880 were 
 as follows: — Indian corn, 101,420,718 bush.; winter 
 wheat, 23,507,223; spring wheat, 1,772,661; rye, 676,- 
 507; oats, 11,482,796; barley, 287,057; buckwheat, 43,- 
 455 ; Irish potatoes, 4,919,227 ; sweet potatoes, 391,- 
 196 ; castor beans, 558,974 ; flax seed, 1,245,279 ; sorg- 
 hum syrup, 3,787,585 gallons; cotton, 142,517 lbs.; 
 hemp, 635,872 lbs.; millet and Hungarian hay, 629,084 
 tons; Timothy hay, 79,634 tons ; hay from wild or na- 
 tive grasses, 798,707 tons ; clover pasture, 5,927 acres ; 
 blue grass pasture, 38,259 acres ; native grass pas- 
 ture, 901,125 acres ; produce of market gardens to 
 the value of §449,797. — The wide prairies,"with their 
 nutritious grasses for hay and grazing and their 
 never-failing springs of pure water, make the State 
 a very paradise to the herdsman and stock-raiser. 
 The following are the statistics for 1880: — horses, 
 367,589 ; mules and asses, 58,303 ; milch cows, 366,- 
 640 ; other horned cattle, 748,672 ; sheep, 426,492 ; 
 swine, 1,281,630 ; value of farm animals, §55,116,383 
 value of poultry and eggs sold, §531,550 ; wool (clip 
 of 1879), 1,194,453 lbs.; honey 370,398 lbs.; wax 10,949 
 lbs. The great herds of buffalo which formerly over- 
 ran the plains have disappeared, the elk is gone, and 
 deer and other game are less plentiful than formerly. 
 There remain, however, the rabbit, hare, turkey, 
 prairie hen, quail, and the usual variety of migratory 
 water-fowl, to gratify the sportsman. The numerous 
 streams are well supplied with fish of choice varie- 
 ties and of unusually large size.— The numerous 
 water-courses of Kansas afford an abundance of 
 power : but as in all new States, the people have first 
 devoted themselves to the development of the land. 
 The manuf. interests, are, however, already assum- 
 ing in the E. section of the State, where coal is 
 plentiful. At Leavensworth there are manuf. of iron 
 bridges, engines, boilers, stoves, railroad iron, and 
 miner's tools. Their are also manuf. of wagons, car- 
 riages, carpets, soaps, paints, and cement, at Leaven- 
 worth, Fort Scott, Lawrence, Columbus, Ottawa, 
 and other places. At Topeka, Parsons, Armstrong, 
 and Argentine there are rolling mills and railroad 
 repair shops, while planing-mills, tanneries, cheese 
 factories, and pork-packing establishments are found 
 i in various localities. In 1880, Kansas had 2,803 
 manuf. establishments, employing 12,062 hands capi- 
 to! invested, §11,192,315 ; wages paid during the year 
 §3,995,010; value of materials, 821,453,141 ; value of 
 prod. §30,843,777.— There are 31 lines of railroads in 
 the States, with an aggregate length of complete 
 track of 3,718 m. in 1882, which greatly facilitates 
 the internal commerce. Kansas has an eastern front 
 of 150 m. on the Missouri R. which is navigable for 
 steamboats of all sizes. The internal rivers of the 
 State are not utilized for commercial purposes. By 
 means of these railroads and the Missouri R. im- 
 mense quantities of wheat, corn, cattle and swine 
 are sent from Kansas to the eastern markets ; flour 
 
 is sent south, southwest, and west, and butter, poul- 
 try, and eggs, with large quantities of vegetables, 
 hay, and garden produce, to the western mining re- 
 gions. — The public schools are liberally endowed and 
 supported. Two sections of land (1,280 acres) are set 
 apart in each congressional district for school fund 
 purposes. There were, in 1882, 6,322 public school 
 buildings, and the permanent school fund amounted 
 to S2,297,590. The teachers employed numbered 8,- 
 208 ; children of school age, 346,792 ; total school en- 
 rollment, 247,034 ; total school attendance, 139,776. 
 The State supports a university at Lawrence, and a 
 normal school at Emporia ; and the agricultural col- 
 lege at Manhattan is endowed by the general govern- 
 ment. There are also State institutions for the edu- 
 cation of the blind, and the deaf and dumb, and for 
 the care of the insane. A reform school for juvenile 
 offenders is being built at the State capital. The 
 principal colleges are St. Benedict's (Roman Catholic), 
 at Atchison, founded in 1859; Washburn college 
 (Congregational), at Topeka, founded in 1865 ; High- 
 land university (Presbyterian); Baker university 
 (Methodist Episcopal), at Baldwin City ; college of 
 the sisters of Bethany (Episcopal), at Topeka ; and 
 Ottawa university (Baptist), at Ottawa. The Kansas 
 academy of scieuce was organized in 1868 as a society 
 of natural history, but was enlarged in its scope in 
 1871, and incorporated the following year. In its pre- 
 sent form it comprehends observers and investiga- 
 tors in every line of scientific inquiry, and aims to in- 
 crease and diffuse a knowledge of science particu- 
 larly in its relation to Kansas. — The State is divided 
 into 104 cos., viz.: Allen, Anderson, Arapahoe, Atchi- 
 son, Barbour, Barton, Bourbon, Brown, Butler, 
 Chase, Chatauqua, Cherokee, Cheyenne, Clark, Clay, 
 Cloud, Coffey, Comanche, Cowley, Crawford, Davis, 
 Decatur, Dickinson, Doniphan, Douglas, Edwards,

 wick, Sequoyah, Seward, Shawnee, Sheridan, Sher- 
 man, Smith, Stafford, Stanton, Stevens, Sumner, 
 Thomas, Trego, Wabaunsee, Wallace, Washington, 
 Wichita, Wilson, Woodson, Wyandotte. The princi- 
 pal cities are Leavenworth, Topeka (the cap.), Atchi- 
 son, Lawrence, Wyandotte, Fort Scott, Wichita, Em- 
 poria, Tarsons, and Ottawa. The legislative authority 
 is vested in a senate of. 33 members and a house of 
 representatives numbering 105 members. There are 
 annual sessions, and the compensation is S3 per day 
 during actual service. The governor and other exe- 
 cutive officers are chosen for a term of two years. 
 The supreme court consists of 3 judges, elected by 
 the people, and there are 15 district courts. Kansas 
 is entitled to 7 representatives in congress, and has, 
 therefore, 9 electual votes. The State debt in 1881 
 was SI, 181, 975. The val. of taxable prop, in that year, 
 as fixed by the State board, was §284,688,955.— Kansas 
 belongs to that immense tract of country, purchased 
 by the U. States from France in 1803, known as the 
 Louisiana purchase. It was organized and opened for 
 settlement as a territory by act of congress in May, 
 1S54, and was admitted into the Union as the 34th 
 State Jan. 29, 1861. By act passed in 1881, the manuf. 
 and sale of intoxicating liquors was prohibited in 
 Kansas. Pop. in 1860, 107.206 ; in 1870, 364,690 ; in 
 1880, 996,096 (of whom 536,667 males and 459,429 
 females; 886,010 natives, and 110,086 of foreign 
 birth ; 952,155 whites, 43,107 colored, 19 Chinese, 
 and 815 Indians).

 135 m. W.N.W. Jefferson City, and 325 m. W. by N. 
 from St. Louis. The site, which was originally very 
 rough and uneven, hasbeen leveled, and now presents 
 a moderately even appearance, except where a high 
 bluff divides the upper or hill part of the city from 
 the " bottom" or low lands where the railroad depots 
 are. It is not regularly laid out, but the streets are 
 wide, and are graded and sewered, provided with 
 sidewalks, and lighted with gas. The buildings are 
 chiefly of brick. It is supplied with water by exten- 
 sive water-works, combiuingthe reservoir, the stand- 
 pipe, and the Holly system. The Missouri is here 
 spanned by a bridge 1,387 ft. long, resting on seven 
 piers, erected at a cost of $1,000,000. Several lines of 
 street railroad run to various parts of the city and to 
 the suburbs of Wyandotte, Kan., and Westport. The 
 surrounding country is fertile, and abounds in coal, 
 lead, iron, zinc, salt, gypsum, fire-clay, and building 
 stone. By means of 9 railroads (and several others in 
 construction) centering in a common station, the city 
 commands the trade not only of W. Missouri aud 
 Kansas, but also of N. Texas and part of Colorado 
 and New Mexico. The chief importance of Kansas 
 City consists in its being the centre of the live-slock 
 traffic forthe States W. of the Mississippi — a business 
 which has enormously increased since the completion 
 of the M.P.RR. connecting this city through the 
 Ind. Ter. with the great stock-raising regions of 
 Texas. The pork-packing business is alio rapidly as- 
 suming importance. The city has a board of trade, 7 
 banks, 28 churches, 14 schools, 2 medical colleges 
 (with a medical journal), 1 seminary aud 1 hospital 
 (both Roman Catholic), a city hospital, orphan asy- 
 lum, work-house and womaij's home, 2 theatres, an 
 opera-house, an efficient fire department aud police 
 force. There are 8 daily, 2 tri-wkly, 17 wkly, 2 semi- 
 monthly and 2 monthly papers. Pop. in 1860, 4,418; in 
 1870, 32,290 ; in 1880, 55,787. 
 
 Kansas Indians, a tribe of the Dakota

 consent, provided for the sale of their reservation in 
 Kansas and their removal to the Osage country in 
 the Indian Territory. They now number abt. 600. 
 
 Kansas JSiver, orKiw River, is formed by

 and the Grasshopper Rs. from the N., and the Wak- 
 erusa from the S. It has innumerable smaller tribu- 
 taries. It is not navigable, though steamboats have 
 ascended to Junction City on the Smoky Hill.

 Kentucky, an interior State, bounded N.W. 
 and N. by the "Ohio R., separating it from Illinois, 
 Indiana and Ohio, E. by Big Sandy R., separating 
 it from West Virginia, and the Cumberland Mts., 
 separating it from Virginia, S. by Tennessee, and W. 
 by the Mississippi R., separating it from Missouri. 
 It is situated between lat. 36° 30' and 39° 10' N., and 
 Ion. 81° 55' and 89° 30' W. Its greatest length is 400 
 m. and its greatest breadth 177 m.; area, 40,000 sq. m. 
 The S.E. portion of the State is broken by the Cum-

 berland, the Owsley and the Laurel Mts., whose 
 highest summit does not exceed 3,000 ft.; N. and W. 
 of the hilly region lies an undulating tableland, in- 
 tersected by numerous narrow and deep valleys. 
 The \V. portion of Ky., is divided between the 
 " barrens " and a country which is partially hilly. 
 The barrens, which occupy chiefly the tract between 
 the Green and Cumberland Rs., are almost treeless, 
 butthe level surface is diversified by low round-top- 
 ped hills, called " oak knobs " on account of the trees 
 which cover them. The alluvial bottoms between these 
 hills and the Ohio and its affluents are exceedingly 
 rich. On the N. and W. the barrens are margined by a 
 more broken and hilly country, which gradually passes 
 tothe low flats which skirt theOhio and Mississippi Rs. 
 — Nearly all the streams draining Ky., are tributaries 
 of the Ohio R., which washes the entire N. boundary 
 a distance of over 600 m. The principal are the Big 
 Sandy, whicli forms the N.W. State line ; the Licking 
 whicli in winter and spring is navigable for abt. 70 
 m. and falls into the Ohio opposite Cincinnati ; the 
 Kentucky, 260 m. long and large enough for steam- 
 boats to ascend 80 m.; Green R., 300 m. long and 
 navigable for two-thirds of its extent ; the Cumber- 
 land, 600 m. long and navigable to Nashville, Tenn., 
 200 m.; the Tennessee, which has a course of 70 m. 
 across Ky. These rivers abound in fish. Salmon 
 weighing 30 pounds and catfish exceeding 100 pounds 
 iu weight have been caught. The primitive forests 
 have not yet been entirely cleared away, and Ky., 
 has an abundance of the best quality of timber. 
 Among the trees are the walnut, ash, oak, hickory, 
 elm, gum, poplar, chestnut, sugar-maple, magnolia, 
 Cottonwood, pecan, redbud, locust, walnut, etc. — 
 The State is abundantly supplied with coal and iron. 
 The whole coal- area is abt. 14,000 sq. m . ,of which 10,000 
 are in the eastern and 4,000 in the western basin. 
 Most of this coal, especially in the W., is a soft bi- 
 tuminous coal, though some cannel is found. The E. 
 deposits have more splint coals, which ate better 
 adapted to smelting and iron making. The yield of 
 : the coal mines for the vear 1880 was 935.857 tons 
 ; valued at §1,123,046. The iron district of the State 
 covers about 20,000 sq.m. in almost all of which ores 
 of such richness as to pay well for working are found. 
 The product of all iron mines iu 1880 was 33,522 
 i tons of ore, valued at §88,930. Lead exists but has not 
 been successfully worked. Building stone of excel- 
 lent quality exists iu several sections, and is exported 
 to some extent. Silver ore has been found near Cum- 
 berland Falls. A more remarkable contribution to 
 economic geology is that afforded by the salt springs 
 or licks of the State. The early deposited rocks were 
 laid down in shallow waters, and absorbed consider- 
 able quantities of salt from the brine. In time, springs 
 charged with this saline deposit found their way to 
 the surface, usually in some marshy valley, and 
 thither all the herbivorous mammals naturally resort- 
 ed to lick the salt which had crystallized around the 
 springs. This practise must have continued for many 
 thousands of years, and hence we find in these 
 swampy licks vast quantities of the remains of these 
 i animals. There are numerous medicinal springs of 
 great virtue in the State ; those of Harrodsburg/Blue 
 Lick, etc. contain considerable quantities of sulphur. 
 The caverns of the State form one of its most remark- 
 Ve features ; the Mammouth Cave is, the most widely 
 known of the thousands in the State, thousrh possibly 
 not the largest. (See Mammouth Cave). Tbev occur 
 throughout the entire range of the snb-carboriiferous 
 limestone, or over a region of 6,000 to 8.000 sq. m. In 
 some places there are what are called sink-holes, 
 considerable tracts often containing trees of large size, 
 under which the roof of the cavern has given way 
 i and precipitated these patches (which are from 50 to 
 loO ft. or more in diameter), to the floor of the cavern, 
 often 200 and 300 ft. below. A few of them are fuuuel- 
 
 shaped and very deep, having been sounded to the 
 depth of 300 ft. without reaching bottom. — The tem- 
 perature of Ky. is a pleasant mean between the ex- 
 tremes of the North and South. The range of the 
 thermometer at Louisville for 3 consecutive years 
 was from 4° below zero to 102° above. There is an 
 annual mean of 55.23°, which is 1.5° warmer than the 
 city of Washington, and about one-fifth of a degree 
 cooler than San Francisco. Snow does not remain long 
 and cattle range the fields all winter. — The garden of 
 Ky., is in the blue limestone or "bluegrass "region, 
 stretching from the Ohio as far south as Lexington. 
 The Kentuckians say " the sun never shone on a 
 fairer country." Its soil is "loose, friable and of a 
 deep black or mulatto color." Upon a single acre 
 1,400 pounds of tobacco havebeen grown. The " bar- 
 rens," which were formerly considered of little value, 
 and given to settlers by the State, have been found 
 quite productive. Besides being a great grain grow- 
 ing State, Ky. is the first State in the yield of tobacco, 
 producing in 1880 36 per cent, of the entire product, 
 of the country. It stands also first in the production 
 of hemp and flax. Some cotton (1,367 bales in 18S0) 
 is raised along the Tennessee, Cumberland and Mis- 
 sissippi Rs. The chief agricultural products for the 
 year 1880 were as follows:

 There were on farms 372,648 horses, 116,153 mules, 
 36,166 working oxen, 301,882 mileh cows, 505,746 
 other cattle, 1,000,269 sheep, and 2,225,225 hogs— In 
 18S0, according to the census of that year, Ky. had 
 5,328 manufacturing establishments, employing 37,- 
 691 hands; capital invested, §45,813,039; wages paid 
 during the year, §11,657,844; value of materials, §47,- 
 461,890; value of products, §75,483,377. The leading 
 industries were distilled liquors (chiefly whiskey), to- 
 bacco manufacture, flour and feed, iron manufacture, 
 and lumber. (See Louisville). The State has little 
 direct foreign commerce, but its domestic commerce 
 is very extensive. The principal exports are hemp, 
 flax, tobacco, horses, mules, hogs, cattle, bagging, 
 and rope. (For shipping statistics see Louisville). 
 In 1882, Ky. had 1,715 in. of railroad in operation, 
 and other roads were in process of construction and 
 projected. — A school law, providing a system of 
 free schools on the New England model, was passed 
 in 1873, and the interest in public school education 
 in the State has been since gradually increasing. The 
 number of children of school age in 18S0 was 539,- 
 843. The Ky. university, established in 1858, em- 
 braces a college of arts, the agricultural and mechan- 
 ical college, the college of the Bible, a commercial 
 college, and a college of law. In 1865, the agricul- 
 tural and mechanical college, established by means 
 of the congressional land grant, was made a part of 
 the university, and the citizeus of Lexington having 
 given §100,000 for the purchase of an experimental 
 and model farm and the erection of buildings for 
 the agricultural college, the university was removed 
 to that city. In 1881, the State normal school was 
 separated from the university, and is now fitted to 
 accomplish a work which, during its former con- 
 nection, it was never prepared to do. The Ky. mili- 
 tary institute in Frankfort was organized in 1846,

 Among the most prominent educational institutions 
 are Befea college, at Berea, at which students are re- 
 ceived without regard to sex or color, Bethel college, 
 at Russellville, Cecilian college, at Elizabethtowu, 
 Centre college, at Danville, Eminence college, at 
 Eminence, Georgetown college, at Georgetown, and

 Daughters' college at Harrodsburg, Georgetown fe- 
 male seminary, Lebanon female college, Logan fe- 
 male college at Russellville, Hocker female college, 
 Lexington Baptist female college, St. Catherine's 
 academy, and Christchurch seminary at Lexington. 
 — The charitable institutions are the State house 
 of reform for juvenile delinquents, established in 
 1872, the Western lunatic asylum at Hopkinsville, 
 the Eastern lunatic asylum at Lexington, the Ky. 
 institution for the education and training of feeble 
 minded children at Frankfort, and the Ky. institu- 
 tion for the education of deaf mutes at Danville. The 
 Ky. penitentiary is located at Frankfort. — The State 
 is divided into 117 cos., viz.: Adair, Allen, Anderson,

 kinsville, Lexington (the most important inland city), 
 Louisville (the largest city and commercial empor- 
 ium of the State), Maysville, Newport, Owensbor- 
 ough, and Padueah. — The present constitution of 
 Ky. was adopted in 1850. The legislative authority is 
 vested in a senate of 38 members chosen for 4 years, 
 and a house of representatives of 100 members, hold- 
 ing office for 2 years. The sessions of the legislature 
 are biennial. The governor (salary, $5,000) and other 
 executive officers are elected for a term of four years. 
 Four judges, having a salary of $5,000 each, con- 
 stitute the court of appeals. The State sends 11 re-, 
 preseutatives to congress, and has 13 electoral votes. 
 There is no State debt. The valuation of taxable 
 property in 1882 was $354,179,311.— Ky. was first 
 settled in 1773. The name signifies "the dark and 
 bloody ground," from the continual wars which the 
 Indians waged with one another upon this middle 
 ground. They received the whites with the bitterest 
 hostility, and many were the victims of the savage 
 tomahawk and scalping knife. Ky. was admitted 
 into the Union as the 15th State, July 1, 1792. Dur- 
 ing the civil war the State remained in the Union, 
 and was the scene of several battles. Pop. in 1790,

 Kentucky River, Ky., rises on the S.E. 
 
 border of the State, in the Cumberland Mts. Its prin- 
 cipal feeders are the North, Middle, and South forks 
 which unite in Lee co., near Proctor. The stream then 
 flows in a tortuous N.W. direction until it enters the 
 Ohio in Carroll co. its length from the junction 
 of its head streams to its mouth is 260 mi, but the 
 distance in a straight line between these two points 
 is only 108 m. The scenery on the banks is famous 
 for its romantic beauty. For a great part of its course 
 the river flows between perpendicular limestone 
 rocks, through which it appears to have gradually 
 worn its way. The Kentucky has no large tributar- 
 ies. It is navigable by means of locks and dams by 
 steamboats 40 m. above Frankfort (62 m. from its 
 mouth), and by flatboats 100 m. higher.

 at its mouth which can be crossed at high tide by 
 ships of the line. The R. is navigable for abt. 40 m. 
 by small steamers. 
 
 Kiainaths, the comprehensive name given to 
 two or three distinct tribes on the Klamath R", living 
 partly in Oregon and partly in California. They teem 
 to have had no recognized tribal name. Those to- 
 ward the mouth of the river and on the coast were 
 called Euroc orPohlik, meaning down ; those on the 
 upper river were termed Cahroc or Pehtsik. The 
 Quoratem, considered by some as Eurocs, lay in the 
 middle, from Bluff to Clear Creek. Above the Cah- 
 rocs were the Moadocs or Modocs (" head of the 
 river"), not usually included under the term Kla- 
 math. These tribes differed in language and type. 
 The Cahrocs are said to be the finest California In- 
 dians, lively, enterprising, and energetic, cleanly in 
 their persons, and great bathers. The Eurocs were 
 darker and inferior. In 1864 they ceded to the U. 
 States all their lands except a reservation on the 
 Klamath Lakes of 1,200 sq. m., where they are grad- 
 ually adapting themselves to the pursuits of agricul- 
 ture, and especially devoting themselves to lumber- 
 ing. Their number is now reduced to abt. 500.

 Tins ee., formed in 1879 from part of Luzerne co., 
 received its name from the river and coal basin of 
 which it partly contains. The river rises in the N.E. 
 iorner of the State, enters the N.E. extremity of the 
 N. anthracite coal field, along which it continues for 
 30 m. past Carbondale, Archbald, Providence, and 
 Scranton, to the N. branch of the Susquehanna, which 
 it enters at Pittstou, Luzerne eo. The continuation of 
 the- Lackawanna valley S.W. of Pittston is tne Wyo- 
 ming valley, and they are shut in by the Shawnee Mts. 
 
 on the N.W. and the Wyoming, or Moosic Mts. on the 
 S.W., the only gaps being where the Susquehanna 
 enters at Pittston and passes out at Nanticoke. 
 These mountains are steep rocky ridges, with a gen- 
 eral elevation of from 1,500 to 2,000 ft. above the 
 valley, which at Wilkesbarre is 525 ft. above the sea. 
 The valley has an irregular trough-like form and au 
 undulating surface, corresponding to that of the 
 rock strata and coal beds beneath ; and it is studded 
 with thriving cities and towns, collieries, rolling 
 mills, and blast furnaces. The entire area is 198 sq. 
 m., of which the Lackawanna valley has 100 sq. m. 
 The coal field, the largest and finest of the anthra- 
 cite basins, fills .both valleys, and is of a narrow 
 ellipsoidal form, slightly crescent-shaped, stretching 
 in a N.E. and S.W. direction about 50 m., and not 
 attaining iu its widest central portion a greater 
 width than 5 m. This coal field, being the nearest to 
 New York, supplies a large portion of the anthracite 
 consumed iu that State and further E. Nine-tenths 
 of the coal is carried over the mountains. Around 
 Carbondale, coal is mined by the Delaware and Hud- 
 son canal company, and carried by their railroads 
 over the Moosic Mts. to Honesdale 28 m. and thence 
 by canal to Rondout on the Hudson R., 108 m. The 
 D..L.&W.RR. company, whose chief operations are 
 at Scranton, have 618 m. of railroad. There are 
 other smaller proprietors. The production of anthra- 
 cite coal in Lackawanna co., for the year 1880 was 
 5,648,365 tons which was 26.69 per cent, of the total 
 product of anthracite in that year.

 Long Island, N. Y, a long, narrow, fish- 
 shaped strip of land extending along the mainland 
 from opposite Staten Island eastward to the Atlantic 
 Ocean, being separated from the city of New York 
 by East R. (which see) bounded N. by Long Island 
 Sound, and washed on the S. by the ocean. Its great- 
 est length from W. to E. is 115 m., and its average 
 breadth from N. to S. 12 m. Along the N. shore, op- 
 posite the mainland, there is a narrow range of hills 
 called the " backbone " of the island, but the re- 
 mainder of the island slopes gradually to the ocean. 
 The S. shore is one immense sand-bank, separated 
 from the island proper for nearly its entire length by 
 inlets from the ocean, the largest of which is the 
 Great South Bay, which extends for 100 m. without 
 a break behind the Great South Beach which is at no 
 point more than 5 m. wide. Roekaway and Coney Is- 
 land beaches, which have become famous summer 
 ; resorts, owing to their proximity to New York, are 
 only western extensions of the Great South Beach. 
 The island is divided into the 3 cos. of Kings, 
 Queens, and Suffolk. Besides Brooklyn it contains 
 only one other municipality — that of Long Island 
 City, which adjoins Brooklyn. The island is well sup- 
 plied with railways at its W. end, opposite New 
 York, and lengthwise the facilities are fairly ample 
 : elsewhere, but not so crosswise. The soil, except 
 near the S. shore, where it is sandy, is tolerably fer- 
 tile. Pop. 744,932.

 stretching along Newtown Creek on the S. , which sep- 
 arates it from Brooklyn, and thence N. along East 
 R. to Bowery Bay. It is divided into five wards, and 
 contains 3 post offices. Astoria in the N., Ravens- 
 wood in the central portion, and Long Islaud City in 
 the S. The S.W. portion is also called Hunter's 
 Point. The N. portion is high and finely situated, 
 and in Astoria and Ravenswood there are many beau- 
 tiful drives and handsome residences. The plan has 
 been liberally projected, with wide streets and ave- 
 ' nues and 3 parks, but the actual laying out of the 
 
 city has not advanced far. The city has 5 ward 
 school houses, 1 daily and 5 wkly papers, a Baptist

 the coast mountains are many fine valleys. The better 
 soils are rich sandy, open loams or stiff black adobe 
 clays. There are good facilities for irrigation. Live- 
 stock, wool, grain, oranges, lemons, grapes, almonds, 
 and olives are grown successfully, the climate having 
 a remarkable semi-tropical character. Brandy and

 Louisiana, one of the gulf States, bounded 
 N. by Arkansas and Mississippi, E. by Mississippi, 
 S.E. andS. by the Gulf of Mexico, and W. by Texas. 
 The Mississippi R. forms the eastern boundary for I 
 
 450 m. by its windings ; the coast-line on the Gulf of 
 Mexico is 1,250 m., and the Sabine R. constitutes the 
 W. boundary for 500 m. The State is situated be- 
 tween lat. 29* and 33° N., and Ion. 89' 5' and 94° W.; 
 area, 45,420. No other State in the Union is so nearly 
 level. The highest elevations in the N. and N.W. do 
 not rise above 240 ft., and from these the land slopes 
 gradually both toward the Mississippi and the Gulf, 
 A large portion of the delta of the Mississippi, es- 
 pecially below New Orleans, is marshy, aud actually 
 below the river at high water. Al ng the Mississippi 
 R. much of the land is belowthe surface of the river 
 at the spring freshets, and is protected from overflow 
 by levees or artificial embankments. These levees ex- 
 tend 120 m. above New Orleans and 43 m. below it. 
 They are sometimes worn and broken through by the 
 floods, and the "crevasses" thusproduced cause the 
 submergence of hundreds of thousands of acres. 
 The lands of the State are usually classified as " good 
 uplands;" "pine hill lands," usually not very fer- 
 tile; "alluvial tracts;" " Bluff or Loess regions ;" 
 "marsh lands;" "the prairie regions ;" and "the 
 pine flats." The whole alluvial region of the delta is 
 very fertile, and its deep black loam will yield enor- 
 mous crops ; the hilly country, on the contrary, is 
 not very productive, and some portions of it are 
 sandy barrens. — The Mississippi R. has a course of 
 abt. 600 m. in the State, and is navigable for the 
 largest steamers throughout its whole extent. The 
 Red R. the second in size of the great tributaries of 
 the Mississippi, enters the State in the N.W., and 
 crosses it diagonally, forming an important avenue 
 of inland commerce. Its principal affluent in the 
 State is the Washita. TheSabiueR. forms a part of the 
 western boundary of the State, aud the Calcasieu and 
 Mermenteau are also considerable streams. The Pearl, 
 Tangipahoa, Tickfaw, and Amite Rs. are the princi- 
 pal streams E. of the Mississippi. Numerous lakes 
 and lagoons are scattered over the State. The largest 
 is Lake Ponchartrain, N. of the city of New Orleans, 
 which has a navigable connection with the Gulf of 
 Mexico, through Lake Borgne, and with Lake Mau- 
 repas on the W. These lakes are but expansions of 
 the Amite R. Among the forest trees are the ash, 
 beech, birch, catalpa, cvpress, elm, gum, oak, hick- 
 ory, black-walnut, locust, laurel, linden, magnolia, 
 maple, mistletoe, mulberry, myrtle, palmetto, pop- 
 lar, pine, sycamore, Cottonwood, buckeye, pecan, per- 
 simmon, etc. The fruit trees are the orange, lemon, 
 lime, fig, pine-apple, olive, pomegranate, peach, 
 plum, apple, etc. — Coal, iron, petroleum, 6ulphuranti 
 rock salt are found in the State, but the latter ocly 
 has been developed. There has been only a partial 
 geological survey of the State, and the mineral re- 
 sources are unknown and undeveloped. The climate 
 in winter, owing tonorth winds, is more severe than 
 in corresponding latitudes on the Atlantic coast. 
 The summers are long and hot, and mephitic exha- 
 lations from the marshes in autumn generate malarial 
 fevers. The mean temperature for the year 1881, at 
 New Orleans (lat. 29° 57') was 68.4°; at' Shreveport 
 (lat. 32° 30'), 64.2°.— The staples of agriculture are 
 cotton, sugar, rice, and corn. The other cereals are 
 not generally cultivated. For the year 1880 the pro- 
 duction of cotton was 508,569 bales ; of corn, 332,158 
 bush. The rice and sugar are grown almost exclu- 
 sively in the alluvial soil along the Mississippi. The 
 sugar cane does not flourish above lat. 31°. La. pro- 
 duces most of the sugar made in the U. States. In 
 1880 the acreage was 181.502; the product 171,706 
 hhds. of sugar and 11,696.248 galls, of molasses. 
 There are 1,144 sugar houses in the State. Rice is 
 one of the growing industries of La. In 1880 the acre- 
 age was 42,000 and the product 23,188,311 lbs. Tobac- 
 co is not extensively grown. The product in 1880 was 
 55,944 lbs. Cattle, sheep and horses are raised in the 
 State, and but little attention is paid to improved

 breeds. Sheep, cattle, mules and horses winter in the 
 woods or wild cane brakes, without shelter, and 
 come out in Feb. fat and sleek. The uumber 01 live 
 stock in 1880 was 104,428 horses, 76,674 mules, 41,729 
 working oxen, 146,454 milch cows, 282,418 other cat- 
 tle, 135,631 sheep, and 633,489 hogs. — In the census 
 year 1880 La. had 1,553 manuf. establishments, 
 employing 12,167 hands ; capital invested, 811,462,- 
 468 ; wages paid during the year, 84,360,371 ; value 
 of materials, $14,442,506 ; value of products, 824,205,- 
 183. The statistics of commerce and shipping are 
 given in this work under New Orleans. There were 
 in 1882 999 m. of railroad in operation. — Free schools 
 are established by law, open to all children from 6 to 
 21 years of age, without distinction of color. In 1880 
 the statistics were : Public schools, 1.404 (for white 
 youth, 955; for colored 539), youth of school age, 330,- 
 930; pupils enrolled, 78,528; teachers employed, 1,494; 
 expenditures for public schools 8529,065. The univer- 
 sity of Louisiana and agricultural and mechanical 
 college, at Baton Rouge, has a classical, scientific 
 and commercial course. Other institutions for higher 
 education are : Centenary college, college of the 
 Immaculate Conception, Leland university ; New 
 Orleans university ; St. Charles college ; Straight 
 university ; St. Mary's, Jefferson college, and the 
 Silliman female collegiate institute. The State in- 
 stitutions are the penitentiary at Baton Rouge, the 
 insane asylum at Jackson, charity hospital at New 
 Orleans, and the institutions for the education of the 
 deaf and dumb and of the blind at Baton Rouge. — 
 The civil divisions which are called counties in other 
 States take the name of " parishes" in La. There are 
 58 parishes, viz.: Ascension, Assumption, Avoyelles, 
 Bienville, Bossier, Caddo, Calcasieu, Caldwell, Cam- 
 eron, Catahoula, Claiborne, Concordia, De Soto, 
 East Baton Rouge, East Carroll, East Feliciana, 
 Franklin, Grant, Iberia, Iberville, Jackson, Jefferson, 
 La Fayette, La Fourehe, Lincoln, Livingston, Madi- 
 son, Morehouse, Natchitoches, Orleans, Ouachita, 
 Plaquemines, Pointe Coupee, Rapides, Red River.

 dry, Saint Martin, Saint Mary, Saint Tamman} 7 , Tan- 
 gipahoa, Tensas, Terre Bonne, Union, Vermillion, 
 Vernon, Washington, Webster, West Baton Rouge, 
 West Carroll, West Feliciana, Winn. The incorpora- 
 ted cities are Baton Rouge (the cap.), Donaldsonville, 
 New Orleans (the largest city and commercial em- 
 porium of the State), and Shreveport. — The govern- 
 ment is administered under the constitution of 1879. 
 The legislature which meets annually, consists of 36 
 senators elected for 4 years and 170 representatives 
 elected for 2 years. The governor and other State 
 officers are elected for a term of 4 years. The State 
 sends 6 representatives to congress and has 8 elector- 
 al votes. The judicial power is vested in a supreme 
 court of 5 judges appointed by the governorwith the 
 consent of the senate for 8 years. There are also dis- 
 trict and parish courts. The code of Louisiana is 
 made up of materials drawn from the old Spanish 
 laws, the Roman civil law, the English common law 
 and the Code Napoleon, modified by local enact- 
 ments. The State debt recognized as of binding 
 obligation on the 1st of January, 1883, amounted to 
 $12,136,166.24, of which 811,730,073.69 were consols ; 
 and 8406,092.55 the fundable portion of other debts 
 still outstanding. The assessed value of taxable 
 property in 1882 was 8181,660,290 ; but it was gener- 
 ally admitted that this valuation was wrong, and that 
 if the property of the State was thoroughly assessed, 
 even at two-thirds of its value, it would show a valua- 
 tion of quite 8300,000,000. The constitution of 1879 
 limits taxation in the State for all purposes whatso- 
 ever to one cent on the dollar. — Robert Cavelier de 
 la Salle first discovered the mouth of the Mississippi 
 R., April 7, 1682. New Orleans was founded in 1718. 
 
 The territory was ceded to Spain by a secret treaty 
 in 1762. Spain re-ceded it to France in 1800. Napoleon 
 thought it unwise to retain his new possession. To 
 his ministers he said : "The English have despoiled 
 France of all her northern possessions in America, 
 and now they covet those of the Soutb. I am deter- 
 mined that they shall not have the Mississippi. I am 
 inclined, in order to deprive them of all prospect of 
 ever possessing it, to cede it to the U. States. Further- 
 more, the emperor needed money. A treaty was 
 signed, April 30, 1803, by which the whole of the 
 vast region stretching from the Gulf of Mexico to 
 the lakes, and from the Mississippi to the Rocky Mts. 
 was conveyed to the U. States for the sum of 815,- 
 000.000. Napoleon, pleased with his bargain, said: 
 "By this cession of territory I have secured the 
 power of the U. States and given to England a mari- 
 time rival who at some future time will humble her 
 pride." La. was admitted into the Union as the 18th 
 State, April 8, 1812. An ordinance of secession was 
 passed Jan. 26, 1861. New Orleans was captured by 
 a combined naval and land force of Federals, and 
 May 1, 1862, Maj. -Gen. Benjamin F. Butler took pos- 
 session of the city. The Red R. expedition, in 1864, 
 proved disastrous to the Federals. After the cessa- 
 tion of hostilities the State was governed for a time 
 by martial law, but finally was given over to the civil 
 authorities (July 13, 1868). Pop. in 1810, 76,556 ; in

 of a great many broken cascades of foam making 
 their way overthe rapids. To obviate the obstruction 
 to navigation caused by the falls, a caual 2J m. long

 an area of 13 sq. m. The river is crossed by a rail-

 ing 12,016,819. The streets are laid out at right an- 
 gles, varying in width from 60 to 120 ft., clean and 
 well paved. The business parts of the city are on the 
 streets nearest the river, the southern portion being 
 occupied by private residences, which are notable 
 , for beauty and elegance. Among the most prominent 
 •public buildings are the new city hall, U. States cus-

 at Louisville, and regular lines of steam packets run 
 to New Orleans, the cities of lower Ohio, and Cincin- 
 nati. Located on the great highway between the 
 North and South, the positi n of Louisville will al- 
 ways make her the great distributing point between 
 the two sections. The commerce is immense. Louis- 
 ville is one of the largest leaf-tobacco markets in the 
 world, the sales of this one article amounting to over 
 $5,000,000 annually. The trade in provisions aggre- 
 gates from $11,000,000 to $15,000,000 annually ; and 
 the city is rapidly becoming one of the most'impor- 
 tant markets for live stock in the country. Pork- 
 packing is extensively carried on, and the sugar-cur- 
 ing of hams is a special feature of the business. The 
 annual product of iron foots up $5,000,000 Louis- 
 ville is the great distributing market for the fine 
 whiskies make by the Kentucky distilleries. The 
 manufacture of beer has also become a very impor- 
 tant interest. Leather, cement, agricultural imple- 
 ments, furniture, and iron pipes for water and gas 
 mains, are the other leading manufactures. Louis- 
 ville is a port of delivery, in 1882 there were belong- 
 ing to the port 60 steamers of 17,838 tons built dur- 
 ing the year, 18 steamers of 8,430 tons, and 6 barges 
 of 6,746 tons. The city is divided into 12 wards, and 
 is governed by a mayor with a board of aldermen of 
 one and a common council of two members for each 
 ward. It is well supplied with water and gas, and 
 has an excellent paid fire department. Louisville was 
 established by act of the Virginia legislature in May,

 Mssine, the most easterly State of the Union, is 
 situated between lat. 43° 6' and 47° 28' N., and Ion. 
 62° 47' and 66° 57' W. It is bounded N.W. by Cana- 
 da East. N.E. by New Brunswick, S.E. and S. by the 
 Atlantic Ocean, and W. by New Hampshire. The ex- 
 treme length is 302 m., and the extreme width 224 
 m.; area, 29,895. The surface of Me. is varied, the 
 central and N.W. portions rising into lofty summits 
 (a continuation of the White Mts. of N.H.), the 
 
MAI 
 
 MAI 
 
 highest of which, Mt. Katahdin, is 5,385 ft. above 
 sea level. Among these mountains and hills are 
 wide spread valleys and plains, watered by pure 
 springs and never-failing rivers. Its shore line from 
 Kittery to Quoddy Head is 226 m. in extent, while 
 following the indentations of the coast along the 
 deep inlets and river estuaries as far inland as the ebb 
 and flow of the tide it is fully 3,000 m. The hydro- 
 graphic survey of the State, made in 1867, gives a 
 total of 1,955 water powers, or " mill privileges," con- 
 taining at least 3,000,000 net horse powers. The aver- 
 age elevation of the surface of the State above tide- 
 water is estimated at abt. 1,000 feet. No other State 
 has so many natural reservoirs and water-courses. 
 There are 1.620 lakes and 5,151 streams represented 
 on the State map of Me. The water surface covers 
 an area of 3,200 sq. m. and the lakes alone 2,300 sq. 
 m., or abt. 1-15 part of the State. The principal bays 
 are Passamaquoddy, Machias, and Little Machias, 
 Englishman's, Narraguagus, Frenchman's, Isle au 
 Haute, Penobscot and Belfast bays, Muscongus, Da- 
 mariscotta, Sheepscott, Quohog, Casco, Saco, and 
 Piscataqua Bay or estuary. The Saco R. drains a 
 dozen or more small lakes, and itself falls into Saco 
 Bay. The Umbagog chain of lakes is drained by the 
 Androscoggin, which by a circuitous course finds its 
 way into Quohog Bay. The Moosehead chain, which 
 comprises, besides Moosehead Lake, many small 
 lakes, finds an outlet in the Kennebec R., which dis- 
 charges its waters into the ocean by many channels 
 through a wide delta. The Penobscot R. drains near- 
 ly one-third of the area of the State, and through its 
 E. and W. branches and their tributaries furuishes 
 an outlet for the surplus waters of more than fifty 
 lakes and ponds, and debouch a full volume of water 
 into Penobscot Bay. Union, Pleasant, Narraguagus, 
 Schoodic, St. Croix, and other rivers which discharge 
 their waters into the Atlantic, form the outlets of a 
 number of these lakes. Jones R., which drains the 
 N. part of the State, has abt. 100 lakes and ponds at- 
 tached to it and its tributaries. — Me. has been known 
 from its earliest settlement to be rich in minerals, but 
 it is only within a short period that any effort has 
 been made to profit by such knowledge. In the sev- 
 eral mining belts on the coast already explored, cov- 
 ering a distance of more than 200 m., silver, gold and 
 copper are found in paying quantities. There are 
 more than 300 located mines in the State, nearly 50 
 of which are in full operation, with a total capitaliza- 
 tion of over $14,000,000. The work of exploring and 
 developing the mineral resources of Me. is as yet 
 hardly begun. The interior lies untouched, while 
 much still remains to be accomplished on the coast 
 belts. Tin, zinc and lead ores are found, also feld- 
 spar, manganese, tripoli, iron pyrites, hornstoue, fine 
 emery, sand-glass, mica, &c. Tourmaline, emeralds, 
 garnets, and other precious stones are also found. — 
 The climate is one of extremes. In the year the tem- 
 perature ranges between 20° or 30° below to 100° 
 above zero. The annual mean temperature at Port- 
 land (lat. 43° 40' N., Ion. 70° 14' W.) is abt. 43.5°, 
 rainfall 42.25 inches. In the extreme N. part of the 
 State the temperature ranges from 5° to 10° lower. 
 The winters are severe, but the temperature is not 
 subject to violent changes. The snow lies on the 
 ground for from 3 to 5 months. — The soil in the river 
 valleys and between the Penobscot and Kennebec is 
 of good quality and yields large crops. In the moun- 
 tainous districts and along the sea coast it is sterile, 
 and does not repay cultivation. In other parts of the 
 State it is moderately productive. A large portion of 
 the State is still covered with forests, and its timber 
 and lumber trade directly and indirectly gives employ- 
 ment to a large number of its inhabitants. The 
 forests of the N. part of the State are principally 
 composed of pine, hemlock, and spruce. Farther S. 
 there is au admixture of white and red oak, maple, 
 
 beech, birch and ash. There are cedar swamps in 
 the N. portion. Poplar, elm, basswood, dogwood, 
 sassafras, juniper, pine, hornbeam, buttonwood, 
 wild plum, alder, willow, etc., are found in the 
 forests of the S. part of the State. Among the fruit 
 trees, the cherry, plum, pear, and apple flourish, but 
 the peach does not succeed well. The principal prod- 
 for the year 1880 were as follows :

 There were on farms 87,847 horses, 298 mules, 43,- 
 049 working oxen, 150,845 milch cows, 140,527 other 
 cattle, 565,918 sheep, and 74,369 swine. — Me. had, in 
 1880, 4,481 manuf. establishments, employing 22-, 
 954 hands ; capital invested, $49,988,171 ; wages 
 paid during the year, $13,623,318 ; value of materials, 
 $51,120,708 ; value of products, $79,829,795. The lead- 
 ing industries are the production of lumber and lime, 
 the cotton and woolen manuf. the packing of 
 ice, fish and vegetables, ship building and stone quar- 
 rying. The immense amount of water power renders 
 the use of steam necessary in only a small number of 
 mills. There are abt. 1,200 saw mills, employing abt. 
 9,000 hands, and the yearly value of sawed lumber 
 is abt. $12,000,000. Bangor is the great lumber mart, 
 where the amount surveyed during the season reaches 
 abt. 200,000,000 ft. There were, in 1880, 24 cotton- 
 mills, working 15,971 looms and 695,924 spindles ; 
 capital invested $15,292,078 ; hands employed 11,864: 
 cotton consumed, 112,381 bales ; value of materials, 
 87,320,152 ; value of products, $13,319,363. Ship build- 
 ing, once Me.'s pride and boast, although not so ex- 
 tensive as formerly is not a forgotten art. In 1882, 
 120 vessels of 61,296tonsand 14steamers of 1,909 tons 
 were built. The principal ship yards are at Bath, 
 Waldoborough and Belfast. Me. ranks second only 
 to Mass. in the extent and value of her sea fisheries. 
 The fishery statistics for the census year 1880 were 
 as follows: persons employed, 11,071; vessels em- 
 ployed 606 of 17,632 tons ; fishing boats, 5,920 ; pounds 
 of sea products as they come from the water, 202,- 
 048,440, reduced to 116,122,048 after being prepared 
 for the market ; value of products in marketable 
 condition $3,614,178. The storing and exportation of 
 ice is fast becoming a vast business. In 1880, 1,000,- 
 000 tons were stored on the Kennebec R. and vicinity 
 (agaiust 250,000 in 1870). Granite and slate, capable 
 of the highest finish, are quarried in immense quaa 
 tities, and go to adorn and beautify many of the most 
 massive and costly structures in the country. Lime, 
 burned from Me's superior quality of limestone, !s 
 also a large product. — The numerous harbors along 
 the extensive sea-coast, give to the State great facili- 
 ties for commerce. There are 14 U. States customs 
 districts, viz.: Aroostook (port of entry, Houlton), 
 Passamaquoddy (port of entry, Eastport), Machias, 
 Frenchman's Bay (portof entry, Ellsworth), Castin:;, 
 Bangor, Belfast, Waldoborough, Wiscasset, Bath, 
 Portland and Falmouth, Saco, Kennebunk and York. 
 The imports from foreign countries for the year 1882, 
 were $3,182,926 ; exports, $2,924,265. There were 2,- 
 494 sailing Vessels of 507,818 tons and 93 steamers of 
 16,656 tons belonging to the different districts. Port- 
 land is the principal port, and one of the best on the 
 Atlantic coast. Me. bad in 1882, 1,022 m. of railroad

 not without faults, is such that the children of the 
 humblest staud side by side with those of the 
 highest in the matter of school privileges, Together 
 they may enter the door of the primary and, passing 
 through all the grades, emerge from the free high 
 6chool amply prepared to enter upon the active duties 
 of citizenship, or fitted to enter the college or univer- 
 sity. With a population of 635,000 there are 250,000 
 scholars, scattered through the 500 towns and planta- 
 tions in the State. To accommodate this growing 
 army of learners there are more than 5,000 school 
 houses, in which as many teachers give instruction 
 on an average of 21 weeks in the year. Added to 
 these are the private seminaries and training schools, 
 of which very many of the larger towns have one or 
 more. There are also three State normal schools de- 
 voted to the work of training teachers for their pro- 
 fessional labors, to which tuition is free. The prin- 
 cipal institutions for higher education are Bowdoin 
 college at Brunswick, Bates college at Lewistou, 
 Colby university at Waterville, and the State college 
 of agriculture at Orono, near Bangor, one of the 
 latest and best of Me.'s higher training schools. The 
 institutions supported wholly or in part by the State 
 are the insane hospital at Augusta, the reform school 
 near Portland, the State prison at Thomaston, and 
 the soldiers' orphans' home. — The State is divided 
 into 16 cos., viz.: Androscoggin, Aroostook, Cumber- 
 land, Franklin, Hancock, Kennebec, Knox, Lincoln, 
 Oxford, Penobscot, Piscataquis, Sagadahoc, Somer- 
 set, Waldo, Washington, York. The incorporated 
 cities are : Augusta (the *cap.), Auburn, Bangor, 
 Bath, Belfast, Biddetord, Calais, Ellsworth, Gardiner, 
 Hallowell, Lewiston, Portland (the chief sea-port and 
 leading commercial city), Rockland and Saco. — Me. 
 is governed under the constitution of 1820. The leg- 
 islative authority is vested in a senate of 31 members 
 and a house of representatives of 151 members, all 
 elected annually by the people. The general election 
 is held on the second Monday in Sept., and the legis- 
 lature meets in Augusta on the first Wednesday in 
 Jan. annually. The governor (salary $2,500) is also 
 elected annually, and is assisted in his executive 
 duties by a council of 7 members, elected on joint 
 ballot by the legislature. The supreme court consists 
 of 8 judges appointed by the governor and council 
 for 7 years and having a salary of §3,000 each. The 
 State sends 4 representatives to congress and has 6 
 electoral votes. The prohibitory liquor laws have 
 made Me. famous in the temperance reform. The 
 only lawful sale of liquor (including all malt liquors), 
 is under the direction of a commissioner who is re- 
 quired to furnish municipal officers of towns in Maine, 
 with pure unadulterated intoxicating liquors, to be 
 sold for medicinal, mechanical and manuf. purposes. 
 The penalty for violation by a common seller is $100 
 fine or three months' imprisonment for the first, and 
 §250 fine and four months' imprisonment forthe sec- 
 ond and each subsequent offence. The total State debt 
 in 1881 was $5,801,900 ; sinking fund, $1,436,367. The 
 val. of taxable prop, was $235^978,716 ; rate of tax, 4£ 
 mills.— Me. separated from Mass. iu 1820 and was ad- 
 mitted into the Union as a State. The disputed bound- 
 ary line between the U. States and British territory was 
 settled by treaty in 1842. Pop. in 1790. 96,540 ; in 1820,

 prising 3,386 sq. m., divided into 8 cos., is called the 
 " Eastern Shore." The " Western Shore " comprises 
 another peninsula, lying between the Chesapeake 
 and the Potomac R., and containing 3,698 sq. m. It 
 includes the whole 6 cos., and parts of 3 others. 
 Both the above sections are alluvial. To the N. and W. 
 is a third district, which is crossed by the ranges of 
 the Blue Ridge and the Alleghany Mts. Some of the 
 most conspicuous summits are South Mtn., Sugar 
 Loaf, Catoctin, Kittatinny, Rugged and Will Mts. 
 The Susquehanna, which empties into the head of 
 Chesapeake Bay, is navigable beyond the State line. 
 On the Eastern'Shore are the Elk, Chester, Sassafras, 
 Choptank and Nanticoke, of which only the latter 
 two are navigable. On the Western Shore are the 
 Patapsco, navigable for 22 m., and the Patuxent, 
 navigable for 50 m. The Potomac, which borders 
 Md., for 320 m., is 7J m. wide at its mouth. Vessels 
 ascend it to a distance of 125m. Chesapeake Bay is 
 200 m. long, from 7 to 30 wide, and with its tributaries 
 drains 70,000 sq m. of territory. It is navigable for 
 the largest vessels. Sinepuxent Bay, 30 m. long and 
 from 1 to 5 wide, is very shallow, and the 30 m. of 
 Atlantic coast afford not a single good harbor.— The 
 Eastern and Western Shores are low and sandy, with 
 occasional stagnant marshes, which are malarious. 
 In the central and northwestern sections the loams 
 and rich agricultural clays are unexcelled in adapta- 
 bility to growing grains and the most exacting of the 
 grasses; portions of the State, reposing upon lime- 
 stone foundations, presenting some of the finest val- 
 leys to be seen on the Atlantic slope, whether the 
 beautiful scenery, the fertile lands or the neatly kept 
 farms be considered. — The position of Md., is a 
 fortunate one as regards climate, escaping as she 
 does the extremes of both heat and cold, but subject 
 to the moderate alterations which conduce to health 
 and vigor. Her climatic conditions are modified, the 
 temperature of that part of the State between the 
 ocean and the bay being especially moderated by the 
 proximity of these great volumes of water, the in- 
 fluence of which is seen in the shorter winters and 
 higher range of mercury than places on the same lines 
 of latitudefurther inland. The mean annual tempera- 
 ture of the central part of the State is 56", of the 
 northern portions 54°, the high lands of the west 50" F. 
 — The N.W. cos. contain inexhaustible veins of bi- 
 tuminous and semi-bituminous coal, mined by 
 numerous corporations, and reaching the sea board by 
 the B.&O.RR., and the Chesapeake and Chio canal, 
 the latter work connecting Cumberland, Md., and 
 Georgetown and Washington in the district of Col- 
 umbia. Iron is found widely distributed, and is 
 worked in many large and well equipped establish- 
 ments, some of the ores found being notably pure 
 and valuable, including some depositsof specularand 
 chromic iron. Copper is found in several localities, 
 andaseam of gold-bearing quartzin Montgomery co., 
 worked at times, is now being more systematically 
 developed by improved processes and with new ma- 
 chinery. In the central and western part s of the State 
 the surface is largely underlaid by limestone rocks,

 those in Baltimore co., N. of the city of that name, 
 being maguesian in composition. Some of the strata 
 in this co., and in Carrol), afford marbles of fine grain, 
 great density and strength, which have been largely 
 used in the public buildings in Washington and 
 Baltimore. Other veins yield annually large supplies 
 of lime for agricultural and building purposes. In 
 1880,32 coal-mines yielded 3,227,844 tons valued at$2,- 
 584.455. There were 13 iron mines, which produced 57,- 
 940 tons of ore, valued at SI 18,050. — The main agricul- 
 tural crops are the cereals, hay, tobacco, and fruit. 
 The wheat lands of Washington, Frederick, Talbot, 
 nd other cos., are noted for producing a grain richa 
 in gluten, thin coated, and peculiarly adapted for 
 making flour for shipment to and through the tropics. 
 The product of the cereals for the year 1880 was 136,- 
 667 bush, of buckwheat, 15,968.533 of corn, 1,794,872 
 of oats, 288,067 of rye, and 8,004.864 of wheat. To- 
 bacco is a staple crop of the five S. W. 6hore cos., both 
 narrow and broad-leaved varieties being now grown, 
 the hitter coming more generally into favor, as pre- 
 ferred by buyers. The crops are adapted to the manu- 
 facture of chewing and smoking tobacco, but the 
 cultivation of sorts suitable for cigar wrappers is ex- 
 tending in the cos. of Cecil, Baltimore and Hartford, 
 whose territory joins that of Pennsylvania, whilst 
 the production of a lighter colored weed, cured by 
 fire heat, and once largely grown in Frederick and 
 Montgomery cos., is being yearly restricted, its 
 quality falling below that formerly produced on new 
 lands, and then much sought forexportation, mainly 
 to the factories of Germany and Russia. The crop of 
 tobacco for the census year 1880 was 28,0S2, 147 lbs. 
 The apple thrives in the high W. cos. and yields 
 noble fruit, whilst in all the bayside cos., of both 
 shores, peaches are extensively grown for market, the 
 orchards exceeding in extent those to be found else- 
 where. Many large pear orchards also exist, and 
 these products, for weight, fairness of form, bright 
 color and pronounced flavor, equal any grown. 
 The grape finds a congenial home, not only on the 
 mountain slopes of W. Md., but smiles amid the 
 hills of Howard, and flourishes in the lower and more 
 sandy 6oils along the waters of the bay. The preserv- 
 ing, by canning or packing, of fruits and vegetables, 
 especially of the peach, but including varieties of the 
 " small fruits," is a business of huge proportions in 
 Baltimore and many of the towns on the bay and its 
 tributaries, such establishments frequently working 
 alternately.as the season requires, on fruit and oysters. 
 In several cos. the feeding of cattle is largely 
 pursued, and great numbers of lambs are raised 
 in almost every vicinity accessible by rail or water. 
 Dairying is an important branch of farming along 
 the lines of the railroads, the daily demand for 
 milk and cream from Washington and Baltimore 
 requiring copious supplies. The number of live stock 
 on farms in 1880 was 117.796 horses, 12'561 mules, 
 22,246 working oxen, 123,907 milch cows, 117,387 
 other cattle, 171,184 sheep, and 335,408 swine.— In 
 the census year 1880 there were 13,748 men employed 
 in catching oysters in Md., with wages and earnings 
 amounting to S2.538.000 during the ovster season on 
 an average of S184.60 for each man. Baltimore is the 
 great centre of the packing trade. The number of 
 vessels loaded with oysters which arrived at that 
 i port was 9,543, bringing 7.252.972 bush, (.he average 
 number of oysters in a bush, is abt. 175). In addition 
 ! to this amount, there were 25,000 bush, brought by 
 1 the bay steamboats, making a total of 8,277,972 bush, 
 of which 3,769,353 bush, were packed raw, 2.689,939 
 bush, cooked and hermetically sealed, and 81S.680 
 j bush, used for local consumption. The amount of 
 j capital invested in the business is S2,338,300, and the 
 estimated value of the packing-houses $1,360,- 
 1 966. Thenumberof shuckers employed by the oyster- 
 packers of Baltimore is6,627, of which 4, 167 are males 
 
 and 2,460 are females. — In 1880 Md. had, according to 
 the census report, 6,787 manuf. establishments, 
 employing 74,944 hands : capital invested, $58,742,- 
 384 ; wages paid during the year 89,725,962 ; value of 
 materials, S66,937,846 ; value of products,S106,780,565. 
 The principal industries were cotton goods, flourand 
 meal, canned fruits and vegetables, iron and steel 
 (see page 25), tanned and curried leather, sawed 
 lumber, refined sugar, canned oysters and fish, copper 
 and sheet-iron ware, tobacco and cigars, &c. Ther* 
 were 19 cotton mills working 2,425 looms and 125, 
 706 spindles ; capital invested, §4,600,816 ; operatives, 
 4,086;cottou consumed. 51, 537 bales;valueof products, 
 $4, 082,1 14. — There are 3 customs districts ; Baltimore 
 Annapolis, and Eastern (port of entry Cristield), but 
 the foreign commerce is carried on wholly through 
 Baltimore which ranks 6th among the American ports 
 in the value of exports and imports. The exports 
 for the vear 1880 amounted to S76,220,870 and for 
 1882 to 839,412,642 ; imports (1880) $19,956,250, (1882) 
 S14,940,373. The entrance in 1883 were 915 vessels of 
 853,575 tons ; clearances, 856 vessels of 803,637 tons. 
 There were in 1882,belonging to the3 customs dis- 
 tricts, 1,921 vessels of 125,176 tons (sailing vessels 1,766 
 of 77,301, 153 steamers of 47.620 tons and 3 barges of 
 349 tons). During the year, 105 vessels of 6,000 tons 
 were built. In 1882, Md. had 1,048 m. of railroad in 
 operation. — Aceordiugto the report of the commis- 
 sioner of education for 1881, Md., had 11 universities 
 and colleges authorized law to confer degrees. 
 There was 158,909 scholars enrolled in public schools; 
 average daily attendance, 79,739 ; total expenditure 
 for public schools, $1,604,580. The State institutions 
 are the penitentiary, the institution for 1 he instruction 
 of the blind, and that for the colored blind and deaf 
 mutes at Baltimore co., and the institution for the 
 education of the deaf and dumb, at Frederick. — The 
 State is divided into 23 cos., viz.: Alleghany, Anne 
 Arundel, Baltimore, Calvert, Caroline. Carroll, Cecil, 
 Dorchester, Frederick, Garret, Hartford, Howard, 
 Kent, Montgomery, Prince George's, Queen Anne, 
 St. Mary's, Somerset, Talbot, Washington, Wicomico 
 and Worcester. The incorporated cities are Annapo- 
 lis (the cap.), Baltimore (the largest city and commer- 
 cial metropolis), Cumberland, Frederick, and Hagers- 
 town.— Md. is governed under the constitution adopt- 
 ed Sept. 18, 1767. The general assembly consists of 
 senate of 24 members elected for 4 years and a house 
 of delegate of 85 members elected for 2 years. Biennial 
 meetings are held. The governor (salary $4,500) is 
 chosen for a term of 4 years. The State is divided into 
 8 judicial districts. The court of appeals consists of 
 the chief justices of the first seven circuits, together 
 with a judge elected by the people of Baltimore. Md. 
 has 6 representatives in congress and 8 electoral votes. 
 The. public debt of the State in 1881 was $11,257,560. 
 The receipts into the treasury for that year wereSl,- 
 996,641 ; the expenditures, SI ,757,469. The assessed 
 value of real estate and personal property was $461,- 
 459,939. — The first settlement in Md. was made on 
 Kent's Island, in 1631 by a party of Virginians under 
 Capt. Wm. Claiborne (or Clayborne). The Roman 
 Catholic " pilgrims of Md." landed at St. Mary's in 
 1632. Md. suffered much in the French and Indian . 
 wars. Her troops were active and efficient in the 
 contest for independence. Congress met at Annapo- 
 lis in 1783, and Washington resigned his commission. 
 The State contributed 50,000 men to the federal army 
 during the civil war. The battle of Antietam, Sept., 
 1862, was the most bloody engagement fought on the 
 Md. soil. Pop. inl660,accordingto McSherrv, 13.000 ;

 heavily timbered, and the soil fertile. It contains 
 coal and lead. The chief prod, in 1880 were 450,010 
 bush, of corn, 202,095 of wheat, and 89,280 lbs. of to- 
 bacco. Cap., Metropolis. Val. of taxable prop. abt.

 Massachusetts, one of the New England 
 States, bounded N. by Vermont and New Hampshire, 
 E. by the Atlantic Ocean, S. by the Atlantic Ocean 
 and the States of Rhode Island and Connecticut and 
 W. by New York. It is situated between lat. 41' 15' 
 and 42° 53' N., and Ion. 69° 55' and 73° 32' W. The 
 length is 160 m. from E. to W. and the breadth 90 
 m. on the E. and 48 m. on the W. ; area, 8,315 sq. m. 
 The coast line is extensive, and deeply indented with 
 bays, harbors, and sounds, chief among which begin- 
 ning with the S.E., are — Buzzard's Bay, which is al 
 most landlocked by the chain of the Elizabeth Is- 
 lands, and has many small bays and harbors on its 
 N.W. shore ; Vineyard Sound, between the Elizabeth 
 Islands and Martha's Vineyard ; Edgartown and 
 Nantucket harbors; Cape Cod Bay, three-fourths 
 landlocked; Wellfleet Bay, Plymouth harbor ; Dux- 
 bury Bav, Massachusetts Bay, and within it Boston 
 harbor ; Lynn harbor, Nahant Bay, Marblehead, Sa- 
 lem, and Beverly harbors ; Gloucester harbor or bay, 
 Sandy Bay, and Anuisquam harbor. There are hun- 
 dreds of islands along the coas>t, mostly small, but 
 
 Martha's Vineyard,. Nantucket Island and several 
 of the Elizabeth group are of good size, the two 
 former constituting each a co. by itself. The surface 
 of the State is much varied, with rugged hills in the 
 west, which attain to the dignity of "mountains, and 
 flat and sandy plains in the S.E. "Two separate ridges 
 of the Green Mts. of Vermont traverse the W. part 
 of the State. The Taconic range, near and parallel 
 with the New York liue, has the loftiest peaks, Grey- 
 lock, iu Adams, reaching a height of 3,505 ft., and 
 Mt. Washington (or Mt. Everett) in the S.W. corner 
 of the State, an elevation of 2,624 ft. The Hoosac 
 range, a few miles eastward of the Taconic, reaches 
 an altitude of from 1.200 to 1,600 ft., and this is 
 pierced by the famous Hoosac tunnel, five miles iu 
 length, at a point but a few miles S. of the Vermont 
 liue. Still further east, near the west bank of the 
 Connecticut R. are two isolated peaks, Mount Tom 
 and Sugar Loaf, the former 1,214 ft. iu height, while 
 across the river at a short distance is Mt. Holyoke, 
 910 ft. high. Near the heart of the State, in the town 
 of Princeton. Worcester co., is Mt. Wachusett, 2,018 
 ft. in height. There are few navigable rivers. The 
 Connecticut, which flows S. through the W. part of 
 the State, is the chief, and admits of a limited com- 
 merce as far as the manuf. city of Holyoke, 
 some 15 m. N. of the Connecticut State line. The 
 MerrimackR. in the extreme N.E. of the State, is also 
 navigable for a few miles from its mouth. The other 
 principal rivers are the Housatonic, Hoosic, Miller's, 
 Nashua, Blackstone, Concord, Taunton, Charles, and 
 Mystic. None of these are navigable within the State, 
 but they furnish a large amount of water-power. 
 There are no lakes of any size, but numerous ponds 
 are scattered over the State's surface. — Much of the 
 land in Mass. is sterile. The valley of the Connecti- 
 cut, however, is an exception, and many farms, par- 
 ticularly those nearthe large cities,havebeen brought 
 up to a high state of productiveness by generous 
 culture. The five western counties are largely given 
 over to dairying, while tobacco is a crop of prime 
 importance in the fertile valley of the Connecticut. 
 The presence of numerous cities and manuf. 
 villages stimulates the raising of great quantities of 
 garden truck to feed their inhabitants. Dairying has 
 been carried to considerable perfection ; blooded 
 stock is common, aud the milk not required to sup- 
 ply the demands of the town populatiou is converted 
 into cheese aud the sweetest and most golden of 
 butter. Cheese making is now done in neighborhood 
 factories, and the prospect is that butter, now gener- 
 ally made iu the dairy of the farmer, will be made by 
 wholesale in creameries, as already commonly done 
 in parts of the West. The amount of cheese produced 
 of late years has materially decreased, the farmers 
 apparently finding butter making, or selling their 
 milk outright, more profitable. A few thousand 
 bushels of wheat are annually raised in the valley of 
 the Connecticut. Corn for the home feeding of farm 
 auimals holds a conspicuous place in the mixed agri- 
 culture of the State. The following agricultural sta- 
 tistics of Mass. for 1880 are taken from the census of 
 that year: Improved land in farms, 2,128,311 acres 
 (tilled, 885,886; meadow, 1,242,425; unimproved 
 land, 1,230,768 ; woodland and forest, 1,004,099 ; other 
 226,669). Number of farms, 38,406 (of which 24,386 
 under 100 acres each). Value of farms, §146,197,415 ; 
 value of implements, §5,134,537. The principal 
 products were hay 684,679 tons ; milk, 29,662.953 
 galls.; butter, 9,655,587 lbs.; cheese, 829,528 lbs.; 
 eggs, 6.753,679 dozens ; tobacco, 5,369,436 lbs.; pota- 
 toes, 3,070,389 bush.; corn, 1.797,768 bush.; barlev, 
 80,128 bush.; buckwheat, 67,117 bush.; oats, 645,159 
 bush.; wheat, 15,768 bush.; and rye, 213.716 bush. 
 Total value of products, 824,158, 8S1. The number of 
 farm animals was 59,629 horses ; 14,571 working 
 oxen ; 150,435 milch cows ; 96,045 other cattle ; 67,-

 The climate of Mass. is cool. The winters are gener- 
 ally loos and severe, the summers short and warm. 
 Snow falls usually during five or 6ix months, and 
 in rare instances exceeds six months. The amount 
 of annual rainfall has been for a term of years from 
 40 to 43.5 inches, and is very equably distributed 
 through the seasons. The mean annual temperature 
 in the N.W. part of the State is 45°, in the S.E. part 
 50°. July is the hottest month in Boston, with a 
 mean temperature of 73°; January the coldest, with 
 a mean temperature of 28°. The mercury occasion- 
 ally falls to 10° below zero, in winter, and rises in 
 summer to 100°, thus showing a range between ex- 
 tremes in Boston of 110°. — The mineral productions 
 of the State are few and limited. Anthracite coal is 
 found and nv'ned to a small extent in the eastern 
 counties of Bristol and Plymouth. Gold, lead and 
 copper have also been discovered here and there, but 
 in insufficient quantities for profitable mining. li on 
 of excellent quality, however, is found abundantly 
 in Berkshire co., where there are several furnaces 
 for extracting the ore, and the same metal exists to 
 a smaller extent in the eastern cos. of Bristol and 
 Plymouth. Glass sand, white marble, plumbago, etc., 
 are also products of Berkshire co. — As a manuf. 
 State, Mass. stands third in the Union for the value 
 of products and is by far the first in proportion to 
 area and population. From end to end the State is 
 thickly dotted with manuf. cities and villages. Ac- 
 cording to the census of 1880, there were in Mass. 
 14,134*manuf. establishments, employing 335,078 
 hands capital invested, $280,175,753; wages paid 
 during the year, $121,103,705; value of materials, 
 $355,737,797; value of products, $581,983,449 (on 
 which total product Boston contributed$123,366,137 ; 
 Fall River, $18,978,776; Lawrence, $19,332,934; 
 Lvnn, $25,216,778 ; Cambridge, $26,124,023; Lowell,

 The fisheries of Mass. are of considerable impor- 
 tance. In 1880 according to the U. States census, there 
 were 20,117 men engaged in the fishing industiy, 
 which employed 1,007 vessels of 81,080 tons, and in 
 which a capital of $14,334,450 was invested. The total 
 value of sea products as sold was $8,151,750, in which 
 the value of products of the whale fishery entered 
 for $2,089,337. The most important centres of the 
 
 fishery industry are Gloucester, which far surpasses 
 any other port of the country in the magnitude of 
 its cod and mackerel fisheries, and New Bedford, 
 which is the leading market iu the U. States for the 
 produce of the whale. — The foreign commerce of 
 Mass. is of great magnitude. For commercial pur- 
 poses the State is divided into 11 customs districts, 
 viz.: Barnstable, Boston, Edgartown, Fall River, 
 Gloucester, Marblehead, Nantucket, New Bedford, 
 Newburyport, Plymouth, and Salem and Beverly. 
 The number of vessels belonging to the several dis- 
 tricts in 18S2 was 2,252 of 429,092 tons (2,081 sailing 
 vessels of 374,597 tons, 160 steamers of 50,922 tons, 
 and 11 barges of 3,573 tons). The total imports 
 amounted to $70,216,970; exports, $62,516,601.— In 
 1882, Mass. had 1,935 m. of railroad iu operation, 
 which, on proportion to its territory, is more than 
 any other State in the country. Nominally they be- 
 long to 61 corporations, but the railroads in the 
 State are controlled by 31 distinct boards of direc- 
 tion. — The Mass. system of public schools is most 
 excellent. Every person having under his control a 
 child between the ages of 8 and 14 years is required 
 to send it to school at least 20 weeks annually, under 
 penalty of a fine not exceeding $50. Citiesand towns 
 must provide truant schools and appoint truant offi- 
 cers, who shall cause the confinement for instruction 
 of habitual truants between the ages of 7 and 15 
 years. Moreover, there are laws prohibiting the em- 
 ploymentof children in manuiactoriesto the neglect 
 of their education. Two agents are employed in visit- 
 ing the schools of the Stat e for inspection and improve- 
 ment. In many of the cities and towns text books 
 are furnishedfree to the pupils in the public schools. 
 The schools are supported by local taxation. The 
 secretary of the board of education for the year 1880 
 reports 6,570 public schools in the State, with 306,770 
 pupils, taught by 8,595 teachers. The average atten- 
 dance was 89 per cent., and the average cost per 
 pupil $14.54. There are 5 State normal fchools for 
 the training of teachers. These are located at West- 
 field, Salem, Framingham, Bridgewater and Worces- 
 ter, and in addition there is a normal art school at 
 Boston. In the way of colleges, universities and 
 schools for professional training the State is richly 
 provided. Harvard university at Cambridge, estab- 
 lished in 1636, is the oldest and most important of 
 collegiate institutions; Williams college at Wil- 
 liamstown, in the extreme N.W. part of the State, 
 founded in 1783, and Amherst college at Amherst, 
 established in 1821 , come next. Of later date and less 
 importance are Tufts at Somerville, near Boston, 
 Boston university, and the Roman Catholic college 
 of the Holy Cross at Worcester. Beside these are 
 two recently established and well endowed institu- 
 tions for women — Smith college at, Northampton and 
 Wellesley at Needham. Of theological schools there 
 are no less than 7. Andover is the seat of orthodox 
 Congregational theology ; the divinity school con- 
 nected with Harvard university is Unitarian in its 
 bias ; the Baptistshave a school at Newton, the Uui- 
 versalists one in connection with Tufts college, the 
 Episcopalians one at Cambridge, and the Methodists 
 one in connection with Boston university. There are 
 law and medical schools attached to Harvard and 
 Boston universities. There is a college of pharmacy 
 at Boston and a couple of dental schools iu the same 
 city. Scientific agriculture is taught at the Massa- 
 chusetts agricultural college at Amherst, and en- 
 ters into the scope of the Massachusetts institute of 
 technology at Boston, the Lawrence scientific school, 
 and the Worcester county institute of industrial sci- 
 ence at Worcester. Mass. is also well supplied with 
 charitable and reformatory institutions. There is a 
 large State reform school at Westboro, an industrial 
 school at Lancaster, and a primary school for the 
 State's waifs at Monson. There is a large new State

 prison for men at Concord and one for women at 
 Sherborn, a big almshouse at Tewksbury, a work- 
 house at Bridgewater ; and three large and expen- 
 sive insane asylums are located at Worcester, Taun- 
 ton and Northampton. — The State is divided into 14 
 cos., viz.: Barnstable, Berkshire, Bristol, Dukes, Es- 
 sex, Franklin, Hampden, Hampshire, Middlesex, 
 Nantucket, Norfolk, Plymouth, Suffolk and Worces- 
 ter. The incorporated cities are Boston (cap. of the 
 State and commercial centre of New England), 
 Chelsea, Fall River, Fitchburg, Gloucester, Haver- 
 hill, Holyoke, Lawrence, Lowell, Lynn, New Bedford, 
 Newburyport, Newton, Salem, Somerville, Spring- 
 field, Taunton, and Worcester. — The constitution of 
 1780, as several times amended, is still the supreme 
 law of the State. The legislature consists of 40 sen- 
 ators and 240 representatives. The governor (salary 
 §5,000) and other executive officers, as well as mem- 
 bers of the legislature, are elected annually. The 
 supreme judicial court consists of 7judges; chief jus- 
 tice receives a salary of 86,500 and the others 86,000. 
 The superior court has 10 judges, salary $5,000, ex- 
 cept the chief justice, whoreceives§5,300. All judges 
 are appointed by the governor for unlimited time. The 
 State debt in 1881 was 833,799,464, sinking fund 814,- 
 285,781. Aggregate net indebtedness of municipalities 
 in Mass. in 1881 was §65,408,691; val. of real estate and 
 per. prop., 81,684,239,976 ; percentage of the debt to 
 the total property valuation, .039. — In 1602 a company 
 of English colonists lauded on the Elizabeth Islands, 
 but soon abandoned their settlement. The Pilgrims 
 lauded at Plymouth Dec. 22, 1620. Another colony 
 was established at Salem in 1S28, and both colonies 
 united in 1692 under one government, including 
 Maine. Meantime, the natives had not quietly sub- 
 mitted to this invasion of the white man, and many 
 fierce and sanguinary contests occurred between the 
 settlers and the savages. In 1675, an Indian chief, 
 named Philip of Pokaneket, or King Philip, collected 
 a large army and began a war which had for its ob- 
 ject the entire extermination of the English. This 
 war lasted for 3 years, attended with severe loss on 
 both sides, and only ended by the death of King 
 Philip himself. From this time until the war of in- 
 dependence, Mass. enjoyed a period of comparative 
 peace and prosperity. Her enterprise, herrapidly in- 
 creasing population, and her independent spirit 
 seemed to have excited the jealousy towards her, 
 and they sought occasion to humiliate her. Op- 
 pressive measures of taxation were devised, her 
 commerce was hampered by restrictions, aud large 
 bodies of troops were kept upon her soil. Every 
 measure of oppression was resisted, and the other 
 colouies were appealed to for sympathy aud har- 
 mony of actiou. The Boston massacre of 1770 
 increased the excitement of the people, aud the 
 destruction of the tea in 1773 in Boston har- 
 bor, the opposition to the post bill in 1774, the repre- 
 sentation of the colony in the general congress, the 
 seizure of the arsenal at Charlestown by the militia, 
 and its reorganization there as a provincial congress, 
 were the most prominent of the many events which 
 immediately preceded the resolution. The tirst blood 
 of the revolutionary war was shed at Lexington and 
 Concord on April, 19, 1775, the battle of Bunker 
 Hill on June 17, of the same year followed, and 
 Mass. was fairly iuvolved in the great issues of the 
 war more than a year before the declaration of inde- 
 pendence. The constitution of the U. States was rati- 
 fied in Jan. 1788, by a State convention, by a vote of 
 187 to 168. Maine was separated from Mass. in 1820.

 780 m. above New Orleans, 420 m. below St. Louis, 
 and 190 m. S.W. Nashville. It is the second city in 
 the State in point of popularity, and the principal 
 place on the Mississippi between St. Louis and New 
 Orleans. The bluff on which the city is built is abt. 
 35 ft. above the highest floods. The streets are broad 
 and regular, and lined with handsome buildings. 
 Many of the residences on the avenues leading from 
 the river are surrounded with beautiful lawns. The 
 city extends over 3 sq. m. In the centre there is a 
 handsome park, filled with trees, and containing a 
 bust of Andrew Jackson. There are two theatres 
 seating 800 and 1,000 persons respectively, 35 churches 
 7 insurance companies having State charters, aboard 
 ofhealth, chamber of commerce, cotton exchange, 
 and railroads making connections with all prominent 
 points N.,S., E., and W., enable the city to cany on 
 an immense trade with all parts of the U. States. The 
 railroads centering at Memphis are C.,0.&S.W.,L.& 
 N.,M.&C..,M.&L.R., and M.&T. Lines of steam- 
 ers run to St. Louis, Cincinnati, Vicksburg, Napol- 
 eon, Ark., and to the Arkansas, White, and St. Fran- 
 cis Rs. Cotton is the chief and absorbing article of 
 commerce. For the year 1880 the receipts of cotton 
 amounted to 409,809 bales, valued at §23,752,520. The 
 annual value of the total trade of the city is abt. A75.- 
 000,000, The principal manuf. are 5 large foundries 
 and machine shops, with several smaller ones, exten- 
 sive wood-works, a tobacco factory, a furniture fac- 
 tory and three of the largest oil mills in the U. States, 
 consuming abt. 500,000 sacks of cotton seed annu- 
 ally and producing nearly 81,000,000 worth of cofctoj - 
 seed oil, oil cake, and regiuned cotton. The number 
 of vessels belonging to the port in 1880 was 63 with an 
 aggregate tonnage of 11,266. There are 6 banks with 
 an aggregate capital of $1,478,000 ; 67 public schools, 
 including a male and a female high school, and 32 
 private schools and academies ; 3 daily, 10 wkly, and 
 2 monthlv papers. The Memphis library association 
 has 9,000 volumes. The city is divided into ten wards, 
 and is governed by a mayor, with a board of alder 
 men of one member and a common council of two 
 members from each ward. It has an efficient police 
 force and a good fire depatment. Memphis was laid out 
 in 1820, and incorporated as a city in 1831. Owingtothe 
 ravages made by several visitations of yellow fever 
 and other infectious diseases, Memphis found itself 
 in 1879, almost upon the brink of ruin as a community. 
 The pop. was frightfully reduced, taxes had grown 
 and increased, and finding it utterly impossible to 
 meet its liabilities, the city failed. A thorough sys- 
 tem of sanitary reform has since been energetically 
 pushed forward, until Memphis, once stigmatized as 
 " the hot bed of pestilence and death," has risen to 
 be one of the healthiest cities in the U. States. Pop. in 
 1870. 40,226 : in 1880 33.593 (of whom 14,896 colored,

 Miami flSiver, 0., rises in Hardin co., flows S. 
 and S W. for a distance estimated at 150 m. passing 
 Troy, Dayton, and Hamilton, and falls into Ohio R., 
 at the S.W. corner of the State, 20 m. W. of Cincin- 
 nati. It passes through a picturesque and fertile coun- 
 try, is rapid, and admits of navigation for only a por- 
 tion of its length. Its principal branches are "the W. 
 branch and the Mad and Whitewater Rs. The Miami 
 canal runs along the river for abt, 70 m. and together 
 they furnish extensive power for manufacturing. — 
 This river is sometimes called the Great Miami, iu'dis- 
 tinetion from the Little Miami, which rises in Clark 
 co. and after flowing S.W. 100 m. nearly parallel with 
 the former, falls into the Ohio 6 m. E. of Cincinnati. 
 
 Miiini is, an Indian tribe of the Algonquin fam- 
 ily, who once occupied a large part of the W. and N. 
 W. of Ohio and a part of Indiana, In 1818 they left 
 Ohio, and in 1846 the greater part left Indiana, where 
 a few still remain ; 500 people of this tribe were re- 
 moved in that year to what is now Linn and Miami 
 counties in Kansas, where they have a reservation ol 
 10,240 acres. They now number but 95, having been 
 mostly destroyed by vice and intemperance. A few 
 others have become citizens. Many have gone to the 
 Indian Territory and joined themselves to the Peorias 
 and Quapaws. The Indiana Miamis are good and 
 peaceable citizens, numbering abt. 350. There are a 
 very few in Michigan.

 Mlehig-aai (mish'i-g'n), a N. central State, 
 bounded NT by Lake Superior, E. by Lake Superior, 
 St. Mary's R., Lake Huron, St. Clair R. and Lake, 
 the Detroit R., and Lake Erie, S. hy Ohio and In- 
 diana and W. by Lake Michigan and Wisconsin. It 
 issitua'ed between Iat. 41° 45' and 48° 20' N., and 
 Ion. 82° 25' and 90° 34' W. The State comprises two 
 peninsulas entirely separated from each other. The 
 upper peninsula is 318 m. in length from E. to W. 
 and from 30 to 160 m. wide ; the lower peninsula has a 
 length of 280 m. and a breadth of 250 m. The area 
 of Mich, is 58,915 sq. m. The E. shore of Lake Erie 
 is low and swampy, thickly wooded and drained by 
 several small and sluggish streams. Further inland the 
 country is rolling and picturesque, with hills from 
 100 to 200 feet high. Along the water-shed between 
 the lakes there is an elevation of 600 or 700 feet. 
 Bordering Lake Superior is a rough primary forma- 
 tion, with rugged hills and deep valleys. The " Pic- 
 tured Rocks " are sandstone bluffs from 200 to 300 
 feet high, which have been worn by the waves into 
 curiously fantastic forms. The highest elevations of 
 the northern peninsula are from 1,500 to 2,000 feet 
 above the level of the sea. Four great lakes wash 
 the ."-hores of this State, which together constitute 
 one half the fresh water on the globe. In the north- 
 ern peninsula there are many small lakes covering 
 from one to a thousand acres. There are, it is said, 100 
 streams which empty into the lakes, but most of 
 them are of small size. Grand R., is 270 m. long, 50 
 rods wide and navigahle for steamboats to Grand 
 Rapids, 40 m. The St. Joseph is 30 rods wide for 120 
 m. from its mouth. Other streams which empty into 
 Lake Michigan are the Kalamazoo, Muskegon, Man- 
 istee and Grand Travers. The Saginaw (navigable 
 for 40 m.), Au Sable and Sheboygan empty into 
 Lake Huron. Menomonee R. forms a part of the 
 W. boundary of Mich. The Detroit and St. Clair form 
 the outlet of the great lakes and are navigable for the 
 largest vessels. — For the purposes of description the 
 Lowerpeuinsula of Mich, may be divided by E.and W. 
 parallel lines into three grand divisions, tb be known 
 as the Southern, Middle and Northern. The S. division, 
 embracing four tiers of cos., comprises the oldest and 
 most developed section of the State, and its rural 
 portions are devoted entirely to agriculture. The 
 Middle division embraces the next three tiers of cos., 
 and comprises what is generally known as the prin- 
 cipal pine lumber region of the State. Where 
 the native forests have been cleared away the coun- 
 
 try is rapidly developing agricultural resources, while 
 lumbering enterprises are advancing northward. The 
 N. division is the newest and least settled portion of 
 the peninsula, being, in a great part, unimproved. 
 The Upper peninsula may, in like manner, be sepa- 
 rated into three divisions by a line drawn due south- 
 ward from Marquette Bay to Green Bay, and by a 
 line drawn from the head of L'Anse Bay to the head 
 of Montreal R., where it becomes the W. boundary 
 of the State. The E. division is principally agricul- 
 tural and is mostly in a state of nature. The Middle 
 division is conspicuous forits resources of iron which 
 yield already enormous products. The W. division 
 includes what is known as the Mineral Range, and is 
 famous for its copper mines besides possessing val- 
 uable agricultural lands. — The climate of the S. parts 
 of the State is considerably milder than that of the 
 N., proportionate to their respective difference in 
 latitude and for other reasons which have a bearing 
 on the climate character of countries. In the S. parts, 
 not only all kinds of cereals are raised in abundance 
 and superior quality, but also apples, pears, cherries, 
 plums, and the more delicate peach trees and grape- 
 vines are cultivated with decided success. The cli- 
 mate in the N. parts of Mich, is nowhere so severe as 
 to prevent the cultivation of winter wheat and the 
 principal ordinary farm and garden products.There is 
 a difference of abt. two or three weeks in the setting 
 in of the spring,and the same time earlier the hibernal 
 weather sets in in the fall in the most northern parts 
 of the State, compared with the most southern dis- 
 tricts, but the growing seasons in the north parts of 
 the State is sufficiently long to bring all the ordinary 
 farming crops to maturity, excepting Indian con) ; 
 and even this in some seasons ripens there before 
 the frosts appear. Potatoes planted in theN. districts 
 not only yield prolific harvests, but are generally con- 
 sidered as of superior quality to the tubers raised in 
 the S. part of the State; turnips, carrots, radishes, and 
 cabbage attain in the virgin soil of these N. frontier 
 lands a really astonishing size, rarely observable in the 
 best manured gardens in the S. The mean tempera- 
 ture of Lansing,as determined by 18 years of continu- 
 ous meteorological observations taken at the State 
 agricultural college, is46° 71'. — The northern penin- 
 sula with some exceptions is rugged and has a poor 
 soil. It is however, well timbered with white pine, 
 spruce, hemlock, birch, oak, aspen, maple, ash, and elm. 
 Much of the southern is occupied by oak openings 
 and prairie, with a large portion of forest, in which 
 walnut, sugar maple, oak, hickory, ash, basswood, 
 elm, linden, locust, dogwood, beech, sycamore, 
 cherry, pine, hemlock, spruce, tamarack, cypress, 
 cedar, and chestnut are the prevailing growths. 
 White pine forms the chief wealth of the N. half of 
 this peninsula. — Notwithstanding the enormous 
 wealth of Mich, in otherresourees, it is in agriculture 
 in which at least half of its active pop. is employed, 
 that it develops its greatest eminence. Its principal 
 products in 1880, according to the U. States census of 
 that year, were 1,204,316 bush, of barley, 413,062 of 
 buckwheat, 32,461.452of corn, 18,190,793of oats, 294,- 
 918 of rye, 10,897,600 of potatoes, 800,712 tons of hay, 
 and 35,532,543 bush, of wheat (for which last product 
 Mich, ranked 4th amongthe States, Illinois, Indiana, 
 and Ohio leading. Other staples are produced, for 
 which the last official accessible returns are as fol- 
 lows: Hops, 828,269 lbs.; honey, 280,321 lbs.; butter, 
 4,101,912 lbs.; maple sugar, 4,319,793 lbs. The num- 
 ber of farms in 18S0 was 119,769, containing 1 1,077,- 
 166 acres, of which 6,374,385 were improved. The 
 average size of farms was abt. 92 acres. Numbpr of 
 farm animals was 354,005 horses, 4,576 mules, 416.900 
 milch cows, 764,166 oxen and other cattle, l,930,05(i 
 sheep, and 506,437 swine. At the census of 1880 Mich, 
 ranked 4th among the States (Ohio, California and 
 Texas each leading) in the production of wool. In 
 
MIC

 MIC 
 
 the census year, 1,964,953 sheep were sheared, pro- 
 ducing 10.724,107 lbs. of wool, or 5.45 lbs. per clip. 
 — Noted for its wheat, its wool and its fruit, Mich, 
 is also the first of the U. States in its production of 
 lumber, salt, charcoal, pig iron, and copper, and in 
 the extent of its fresh water fisheries, first in the value 
 and probably first in the amount of its yield of iron 
 ore, and among the most advanced in its general 
 manufacturing and commercial development. While 
 a few States excel it in the volume of their crops, 
 and some in the aggregate of their industrial statis- 
 tics', none can equal it iu the magnitude and diver- 
 sity of its resources, taken together. For more than 
 a score of years lumbering has been the chief manuf. 
 interest of Mich., and no State equals it at the present 
 time iu the extent and value of its lumber pro- 
 ducts. The product of 1881 is estimated at 3,- 
 919,500,000. The large total is that of sawed lumber 
 pine alone and is exclusive of shingles, laths, staves, 
 and long timber, whose product possesses an annual 
 value of many millions. The Saginaw valley is the 
 seat of immense salt manuf. from inexhaustible un- 
 derrunning brine which is procured by boring deep 
 wells and pumping. Mich, product of salt exceeds 
 that of any other State, the value of product for the 
 census year 1880 being at 83,271,913, while New York 
 comes second with 81.106,740. The copper mines of 
 Lake Superior are said to be the richest iu the world, 
 with the exception of those in Chili. They form 4 
 districts : the Ontonagon, located at the base of 
 Keweenaw Point, and yielding now but smull returns; 
 the Keweenaw, covering the N. extremity of the 
 Point, and containing rich Assure veins ; the Portage 
 lake, which includes the famous calumet conglom- 
 ] erates, belonging to the Calumet and Hecla Company 
 1 which employs over 2,000 men and supports two 
 flourishing villages; and Isle Royal, a narrow rocky 
 i island near the N. shore of the lake. The yield of 
 I 19 mines in 1880 was 938.960 tons of ore valued at 
 i §7,979,232, which was '90.48 per cent, of the entire 
 ] product of the U. States. The iron districts of Mich. 
 
 are chiefly in Marquette and Menominee cos. The 
 j ores are of extraordinary richness, 63 9-10 per cent, of 
 i metal being given by the State Geologist as the aver- 
 |. a s e per centage of first class ores, while fortunes have 
 j been made in Pennsylvania iu mining 40 per cent, 
 ore. The greater part of the ore mined in the upper 
 peninsula is shipped in its natural condition and re- 
 duced into iron by the coke and anthracite furnaces 
 of other States. The furnaces of Mich, use charcoal 
 and produce a superior quality of pigiron. In 1880, the 
 yield of 43 mines was 1,834,712 tons of ore, valued at 
 86,034,648. There are great plaster mills at Grand 
 Rapids, and the grindstones of the Huron co. quarries 
 have uo superior iu the northwest. Mich, especially 
 excels in its manuf. of railroad cars of all grades, 
 agricultural implements, furniture, stoves, wooden 
 ^yare, paper and paper pulp, wagons and car- 
 riages, matches and cut tobacco. The annual prod, 
 of its flouring-mills, planing-mills, sash and door 
 factories, foundries, machine shops, cigar factories, 
 tanneries, breweries, bakeries, boot and shoe facto- 
 ries, and clothing establishments, must iu each case 
 be estimated by millions. According to the census 
 of 1880, Mich, had 8,873 manuf. establishments, 
 employing 77,591 hands ; capital invested, $92.- 
 930,959 ; wages paid during the year, $34,313,683 ; val- 
 ue_of material, 893,900,269"; value of products, 8150,- 
 715,035. — Mich, has the most productive fresh water 
 fisheries in the Union. In 1880 there were 1,781 men 
 and 490 vessels of 108,845 tons emploved in lake 
 fishing, and the catch amounted to 34.013,000 lbs. 
 (chiefly whiteflsh) valued at 8711,675.— The State is 
 divided into 4 customs districts, viz.: Detroit, Huron 
 (port of entry, Port Huron), Michigan (port of entry, 
 Grand Haven), and Superior(port of entry, Marquette). 
 The foreign commerce in 1882 is carried on wholly 
 
 with Canada. The value of exports was 811,9S2,419 ; 
 of imports, $7,527,854. The vessels belonging or re- 
 gistered in the State consisted of 498 sailing vessels 
 of 81,865 tons ; 486 steamers of 93,533 tons, and 105 
 barges of 28,071 tons. The vessels built during the 
 year were 39 sailing vessels of ll,338tons, 58steamers 
 of 16,996 tons, and one barge of 445 tons. The num- 
 ber of miles of railroad in the State in 18S2 was 4,284. — 
 A compulsory school law is in force, which compels 
 parents and guardians to send all children between 
 the ages of 8 and 14 years to school for at least 12 
 weeks in the year. In 1881 there were 6,573 schools, 14,- 
 469 leachers and 371,613 scholars, who attended school 
 iu average 150 days. The total expenditure for the 
 year was $3.417,508 ; value of school property $9,383,- 
 951. In all the larger cities and towns there are supe- 
 rior graded schools, and there is a State normal 
 school at Tpsilanti. All the older portions of the 
 State are well supplied with schools, for which there 
 is adequate taxation, and have teachers fully compe- 
 tent for their work. Iu the more sparsely settled parts 
 of the State there is a want of better buildings and a 
 greater degree of competence on the part of teachers. 
 The University of Mich, at Ann Arbor is a State in- 
 stitution, in a flourishingcondition, the acknowledged 
 peer of the foremost in the land. The State agricul- 
 tural college at Lansing, founded in 1855 and open- 
 ed in 1857, is the pioneer agricultural college iu the 
 U. States. In addition to these there are the following: 
 Wesleyan Methodist college at Adrian, in a healthy 
 condition ; a Methodist Episcopal college at the 
 beautiful village of Albion, in which there are 113 
 male and 100 female students ; a Seventh Day 
 Baptist college at Battle Creek, in which there are 
 nearly 300 students ; a Congregational college at 
 Grand Traverse, a Free Baptist college at Hillsdale, 
 a Dutch Reformed college at Holland, and a Baptist 
 college at Kalamazoo. Olivet college, at the beautiful 
 little village of Olivet, in Eaton cb., was chartered 
 in 1848, is under the general care of the Congrega- 
 tionalists and Presbyterians, and has nearly 200 
 pupils, about equally divided between the sexes. 
 The Michigan female seminary at Kalamazoo was in- 
 corporated in 1856, is under the control of the 
 Presbyterian synod of Michigan, and is modeled 
 after the Mt. Holyoke seminary. The Michigan 
 military academy, located on the border of a charm- 
 ing lake, a few miles from Pontiac, was organized iu 
 1877. Its course is three years. A part of its instruc- 
 tion is military, for which a West Point officer is 
 detailed by the war department. Two penal institu- 
 tions are owned by the State; the State prison at 
 Jackson, and the house of correction and reforma- 
 tory at Ionia, the former having in 1882, 693 inmates 
 and the latter 586. The reform school at Lansing, 
 opened in 1S53, had 335 inmates iu 1883. There are 3 
 asylums for the insane at Kalamazoo and at Pontiac. 
 — Mich, is divided into 79 cos., viz.: Alcona, Allegau, 
 Alpena, Antrim. Baraga, Barry, Bay, Benzie, Berrien,

 and Detroit the commercial metropolis of the State. 
 The constitu;ion adopted in 1850, as several times 
 ameuded, continues in force. The legislature con- 
 sists of 32 senators and 100 representatives, who,

 together with the governor and other executive 
 officers, are elected for a term of two years. The 
 supreme court consists of 4 justices (salary $4,000 
 each), elected by the people for 8 years. Treason is 
 the only capita! crime ; murder is punishable .vith 
 solitaiy imprisonment for life. The State sends 11 
 representatives to congress, and has 13 electoral 
 votes. The State bonded debt in 1882 was §904,1-19, but 
 sufficient funds were held in the treasury and appli- 
 cable for that purpose, to extinguish it. The receipts 
 into the treasury for the year "1881 aggregated $2,- 
 607,288.07; expenditures, $2,392,569.01. The val. 
 of taxable prop, in 1881 was $810,000,000. — A mis- 
 sion was established at Sault Ste. Marie, by Father 
 Marquette, in 1658 : this was the first European set- 
 tlement. The French remained in possession until 
 1763, when the territory wasceded to Great Britain. A 
 bloody war was waged by the Indians under the 
 leadership of Pontiac. The Territory of Mich, was 
 organized Jan. 16, 1805. The upper peninsula became 
 a part of Mich, in 1836, and the State was admitted 
 into the Union Jan. 26, 1837. The name Mich, is 
 abbreviated from two Chippewa words meaning 
 Great Lake. Pop. in 1810, 4,762 ; in 1830, 31,639 ; in

 length is 340 m.; average depth, 990 ft.; height of 
 surface above the ocean, 578 ft. — the same as that of 
 Lake Huron. Its shores are generally low and often 
 sandy. It has comparatively few bays or very good 
 harbors. The principal bays are Green Bay in Wis- 
 consin and Grand Traverse Bay in Michigan. It re- 
 ceives many streams the mouths of which in some 
 instances (as at Chicago, 111.) have by artificial means 
 been converted into capacious harbors. Most of the 
 islands of this lake are in the N. part. Lake Michi- 
 gan is subject to violent storms, but it is an import- 
 ant area of commerce, being traversed by many 
 steamboats, three-masted schooners, and other craft. 
 It has the State of Michigan on the E. and N., Wis- 
 consin and Illinois on the W., while its S. extremity 
 reaches Illinois and Indiana. It has extensive fish- 
 eries, the white fish and several large trout being the 
 most important species caught.

 Milwaukee, tl is., a large river, which rises in 
 
 Fond du Lac co., flows S.S.E. for abt. 100 m. and 
 empties into Lake Michigan at the city of Milwaukee, 
 through which it flows. It is joined near its mouth 
 by the Menominee, and has been rendered navigable 
 to the heart of the city by vessels of any tonnage Used 
 on the lakes. 
 
 — a S.E. co., bounded E. by Lake Michigan. It is 
 watered by Milwaukee, Menominee, and Root Rs. 
 The surface is undulating and the soil calcareous and 
 fertile. The chief prod, in 1880 were 212,719 bush, of 
 barley, 232,094 of corn, 497,409 of oats, 80,683 of rye, 
 and 190,294 of wheat. Potatoes aud butter are also 
 staple prod. Cap., Milwaukee. Val. of taxable prop, 
 abt. .$125,000,000. Pop. 138,523 (of whom 55,054 for., 
 and 319 colored). 
 
 — The chief city<§> and port of entry of the State, cap. 
 of above cb., on the W. shore of Lake Michigan, 75 
 m. E. of Madison, and 85 m. N. by W. from Chicago. 
 The lake opposite the city makes an indentation on 
 the shore, forming a bay 6 m. wide and 3 m. deep, 
 which is easy of access at all seasons. It is regarded as 
 the best harbor on the S. or W. shore of the lake. The 
 climate is peculiarly bracing aud healthful, and the 
 atmosphere is remarkably clear and pure. The city is 
 regularly laid out. The centre, near the Milwaukee 
 and Menominee Rs. is the business quarter ; and the 
 E. and W. parts, the former of which is built upon a 
 high bluff overlooking the lake, while the latter is 
 still more elevated, are occupied by residences. The 
 material used in building is largely the beautiful 
 cream-colored Milwaukee brick. The streets, except 
 those in the commercial quarter, are generally well 
 shaded. There are three lines of horse cars. The 
 principal public buildings are the new county court- 
 house, the U. States custom house and post office 
 building, the academy of music, the opera-house, &c. 
 The chamber of commerce building, finished in 1880, 
 is a magnificent structure of solid cut Ohio stone and 
 polished Scotch granite. In 1S80 also was completed 
 one of the finest exhibiting buildings in America, 
 built at a cost of $300,000, and the initial exhibits 
 therein, showing the unlimited resources and products 
 of the great N.W. was a splendid success. Milwaukee 
 has railroad communications with all parts of the 
 country bv means of the C.,M.&St.P., the C.,&N. W., 
 the M..L.S.&W., the W.C., and Western lines. The 
 receipts and shipments by those lines are of great 
 extent aud value ; wheat and flour are the most im- 
 portant items. There are 6 elevators for grain, with a 
 combined capacity of 3,450,000 bush. In 1882 there 
 were belonging to the ports 277 sailing vessels of 58,- 
 520 tons, and 83 steamers of 16,736 tons. In 1881 the 
 entrances in the coastwise trade were 3,917 steamers, 
 of 3, 109,445 tons, aud 4,541 sailing vessels of 640,247 ; 
 clearances 4,039 steamers of 3,110,506 tons, and 4,567 
 sailing vessels of 645,035 tons. The manuf. are ex- 
 tensive, and embrace lager beer (which is highly es- 
 teemed and widely exported), pig iron, iron castings, 
 flour, cement, glass, leather, malt, machinery, agri- 
 cultural implements, high wines, tobacco and cigars, 
 furniture, brooms, paper, woolens, wagons, soapand 
 candles, doors and windows, boots and shoes, steam 
 boilers, ear wheels, baskets, trunks, and white lead.

 larly laid out, with straight avenues 80 ft. wide, and 
 double rows of trees each side, well watered and 
 lighted, has several creditable public edifices and 
 many elegant private residences. The site is upon a 
 broad esplanade which commands a fine view of the 
 falls, and the surrounding country is noted for its 
 beauty. Several picturesque lakes are in the imme- 
 diate vicinity, and the celebrated Falls of Minnehaha 
 are but 3 m. distant. Minneapolis is connected by 
 railroad with St. Paul aud Duluth, aud has a line of 
 steamers which in summer ply on the upper Missis- 
 sippi, above the falls, to St. Cloud. Tne University 
 of Minnesota is located here, as well as the Augs- 
 burg (Lutheran) Theological Seminary, and Hamlihe 
 University (Methodist). There are 52 churches, 3 
 daily, 15 wkly, and 6 monthly papers, an academy, a 
 female seminary, aud a business college, an athe- 
 naeum, academy of music and opera-house, a spa- 
 cious aud beautiful cemetery, extensive railroad re- 
 pair shops, 2 nat. and 8 other banks, and several 
 very exteusive commercial establishments. Minnea- 
 polis has become the most important milling centre 
 of the N.W. Power of immeuse capacity is furnished 
 by the Mississippi R., which is here nearly 1,000 ft. 
 wide, has a fall of 75 ft. within the space of a mile, 
 and has been utilized to the supply of 28 flouring 
 mills and several saw mills. The mills have a capac- 
 ity which demands 20 million bush, of wheat in a 
 year, a quantity representing an area of 1,250,000 
 acres of laud iu cultivation. The graiu is purchased 
 by agents representing an association of the millers, 
 who canvass the tributary wheat-growiug districts 
 for 3 months after the harvest of each year, to se- 
 cure the bulk of the year's supplies, and forestall 
 the competition of Eastern speculators. The wheat is 
 distributed among the several mills iu proportiou to 
 their capacity for grinding. While waiting to be 
 ground it is stored in the mills, which can take care 
 of abt. 2,500,000 bush.; in the elevators of the city, 
 which can hold abt. half that amount : and at out- 
 lying stations on the various lines of railroad. The 
 total productive capacity of all the mills is computed 
 at 28,000 barrels of flour a day. Besides the exten- 
 sive system of flouring mills, 17 lumber mills are in 
 operation, producing abt. 2.500,000 superficial ft. of 
 lumber during the season. Minneapolis was first set- 
 tled in 1849, and was incorporated in 1867. In 1872, 
 the city of St. Anthony was consolidated with it.

 .11 jamese t««, a river of Minnesota, having its 
 source in a series of lakes on the Dakota border, be- 
 tween lat. 45° and 46° N.,_ and pursuing a S.E. 
 course for about 320 m. to its confluence with the 
 Blue Earth ; then turning N.E. it flows in that di- 
 rection for about 120 m., falling into the Mississippi 
 at Mendota. Its course is principally in the valley ly- 
 ing between the Coteau du Grand Bois and the Co- 
 teau des Prairies. For its whole distance from Big 
 Stone Lake it has a fall of only 220 ft. It is uavigable 
 for steamers about 40 m. to a point where at low 
 water a ledge of rocks obstruct further progress; but 
 ordinarily small boats can ascend to Patterson's 
 Rapids, 295 m. from its mouth. 
 
 — a N.W. State., bounded N. by British America, E. by 
 Lake Superior and Wisconsin, S. by Iowa and W. by 
 Dakota. It is situated between lat. 43° 30' and 49° N., 
 and Ion. 89° 39' and 97° 5' W. The extreme length N. 
 and S. is 380 m. and the extreme breadth E. and W. 
 387 in.; area, 83,365 (of which 4,160 sq. m. is water 
 surface). The general elevation of the State is 1,000 
 ft. above sea level. In the N. part are the " Heights 
 of Land," constituting a water-shed between three 
 great river systems — viz., those of the Mississippi 
 Valley. Hudson's Bay and the St. Lawrence. The 
 most elevated lands reach a height of nearly 1,600 ft. 
 about Lake Itasca. Other elevations are : Near Lake 
 Shotek, 1,578 ft.; Lake Pemidji, 1,456 ft.; Leech 
 Lake, 1,330 ft. The N.E. section has been character- 
 ized as " the region of swamps and bogs." Westward 
 of the Mississippi the open rolling prairie begins. A 
 gentle descent of 400 ft. leads to the valley of the 
 Red River of the North. This valley, or plain, is from 
 30 to 35 in. wide, and "a more complete dead level 
 cannot be found in the whole country." The St. 
 P.&P.RR. crosses it for 40 m. "without a curve, a 
 fill or a cut, save what is necessary to remove the 
 sod." Nearly one-third of the whole area of the 
 State in the N.E. is almost entirely covered with co- 
 niferous forests. The pine region includes 21,000 sq. 
 m. The swamps have a growth of tamarac of little 
 value for timber. Deciduous trees predominate W. 
 of the Mississippi ; the oak, elm and ash are most 
 frequent, but every species of tree known to the Up- 
 per Mississippi Valley is found here, with the possi- 
 ble exception of the beech and sycamore. An im- 
 mense forest, known as the Bois Franc by the early 
 French settlers, and now as the " Big Woods," ex- 
 tends over the centre of the State ; it is 100 in. long, 
 40 m. wide and covers an area of 4,000 sq. m., which 
 is larger than the combined areas of Rhode Island 
 and Delaware. Minn, has a coast-line of 120 m. on 
 Lake Superior. Along the N. boundary are the Lake 
 of the Woods, Rainy. Mountain and Arrow Lakes. 
 Other lakes are the Red, Vermilion, Leech, Winibi- 
 goshish, Swan and Mille Lacs. These bodies of water 
 are from 1 to 30 m. in diameter, and some of them 
 cover an area of 400 sq. m. Many of them have no 
 visible outlet. There are said to be 10,000 lakes in the 
 State, most of which abound in fish and are sur- 
 rounded by a heavy growth of timber. The Missis- 
 
 sippi R. rises in Lake Itasca and flows through and 
 by the State for 800 m. (for540 m. of which it is nav- 
 igable), constituting the E. boundary for 135 m. At 
 the Falls of St. Anthony it is 350 yards wide and has 
 a descent of 58 ft. One of its affluents, the St. Croix, 
 navigable for abt. 55 in., constitutes the E. boundary 
 for 129 m. The Minnesota traverses the lower part of 
 the State in a S.E. and N.E. direction, and after a 
 course through the Stateof 450 m., falls into the Mis- 
 sissippi at Fort Snelling, 5 m. above St. Paul ; it is 
 navigable abt. 300 m. The Red R. of the North rises 
 in Elbow Lake, flows through several lakes, running 
 in a S.W. direction, and then turning N. forms the 
 W. boundary for 379 m. ; it is navigable abt. 250 m. 
 In the N.E. part is the St. Louis R., which falls into 
 Lake Superior, and is important as the first link in 
 the chain of lakes and rivers of the St. Lawrence sys- 
 tem ; and in the S.W. are the head waters of the Des 
 Moines, abt. 135 m. long, of which abt. 20 are navi- 
 gable. These with their tributaries and a host of 
 lesser streams, penetrates every portion of the State. 
 Some of the water powers furnished by these streams 
 are among the finest in America, and will contribute 
 to the future manufacturing importance of the State. 
 — The elevation of Minn, above the sea, its fine drain- 
 age, and the dryness of the atmosphere, gives it a 
 climate of unusual salubrity and pleasantness. It has 
 an annual mean temperature of 44° 6', while its mean 
 summer temperature is 70° 6', the same as that of 
 middle Illinois. Its high latitude gives it correspond- 
 ingly longer days in summer than States farther 
 S., and during the growing season there are 2J hours 
 more sunshine than in the latitude of Cincinnati. 
 This, taken in connection with the abundant rainfall 
 of early summer, accounts for the rapid and ■vigor* 
 ous growth of crops in Minn., and their early matur- 
 ity. The winter climate is one of the attractive fea- 
 tures of the State. Its uniformity, freedom from thaws 
 and excessive spells of coldand severe weather, make 
 out-door life and labor a pleasure. These features tend 
 to make the climatethe healthiest ""n ihe Union, andit 
 is the resort for thousands of invalids from eastern 
 States. Actual statistics taken in 1881, show that the 
 average mortality was 1 in 84, or about 1.25 percent.; 
 whereas the births run in the ratio of 3 to 1 of the 
 deaths. — The agricultural development of Minn, 
 evinces the richness of its«soil, audits favorable cil- 
 mate. The statistics of 1881 show that in that yL'ar 
 there were 81,089 farms, and a cultivated area of 4,- 
 729,536 acres. Wheat is the prominent cereal culti- 
 vated, and embraces 66.59 per cent, of crops produced 
 in 1880. The average yield of wheat per acre for 12 
 years, was 14.5 bush., showing Minn, to be almost un- 
 excelledin the product of this great staple. Theaggre- 
 gate yield in 1880 was 39,399,068 bush. The other 
 principal products exhibited by thecensusof 1880were 
 39,399,068 bush, of corn, 2,972,965 of barley, 41,750 of 
 buckwheat, 23,382,158 of oats, 215,245 of rye, 4,888,- 
 040 of potatoes, and 1,577,702 tons of hay The statis- 
 tics of live 6tock in 1881 gives the number of horses 
 as 226,061; cattle (of all kinds), 584,573 (of which 
 milch cows comprise 228,955) ; sheep, 267,315 ; hogs, 
 238,987. The wool clip in 1881 was 923,170 lbs. Dairy 
 products are rapidly increasing. In 1880 there were 
 15,693,283 lbs. of butter, and 419.994 lbs. of cheese 
 made. Creameries and cheese factories are springing 
 up in every neighborhood. Fruit raising has not, as 
 yet, become general. In 1880, only 275,000 apple trees 
 in bearing were reported. — Although the leading in- 
 dustries of the State are agriculture and lumbering, 
 the manufacturing branch is rapidly becoming large. 
 The main branches now carried on are the products 
 of lumber in various shapes, flouring, agricultural 
 machinery, brewing,furniture, boots and shoes, cloth- 
 ing, wagon making, etc., although new branches of 
 industry are beins 1 opeued every day. The lumber and 
 flour manufacturing are the principal industries, and

 enlist more capital than all the other lines. In 1880 
 there were 540,997,000 ft. of white pine scaled (in- 
 cluding 187,836,000 shingles and 88,088,000 laths). In 
 the belt of hard wood extending W. and S. of tht 
 pine region, the cut for the census year 1880 (exclu- 
 sive of 7,825,000 staves and 547,000 sets headings) was 
 36,884,000 ft. During 1881, 3,142,9741bs. of flour were 
 ground at Minneapolis. — Navigable waters to the ex- 
 tent of 1,500 m. afford good facilities for trade. 
 , The State comprises the IT. States customs district of 
 Duluth, and 1 hat of Minnesota (port of entry, Pembina 
 ou the Red R.).Theiin ports atDuluthinl882amounted 
 to $50,989, and the exports to $59 1 ,492, In Minnesota 
 district the imports were §954, 162; exports, $3,721,972. 
 The chief articles of export were oats, flour, and lum- 
 ber. The building of railroads has been very brisk for 
 several years past. In 1862, the State had only 10 m. 
 of railroad ; in 1882 there were 3,780 m. in operation. 
 — There are extensive and valuable mineral deposits 
 in Minn., which only await capital and development 
 to add to the wealth and manufacturing industries 
 of the State. On the N. shore of Lake Superior, ex- 
 tensive masses of copper exist. Iron ore of a valua- 
 ble quality and in large quantity is found around Por- 
 tage and Knife Rs. Recently the existence of a large 
 bed of magnetic iron ore has been discovered in and 
 near St. Paul. Gold quartz is found at Vermillion 
 Lake. Plumbago also exists on the N. shore. Build- 
 ing material, granite, brown stone, limestone, sand 
 stone, brick, clay and potters' clay are also abundant. 
 — In no State is more liberal provision made for edu- 
 cation than in Minn. By its organic act, two sections 
 of laud in each township are set apart for this pur- 
 pose, and the State constitution provides that the 
 proceeds of this land shall remain a perpetual school 
 fund for the State, the income of which shall be used 
 to pay for the schooling of its children. This fund 
 (Jan. 1, 1881), was 84,830,862, and the interest on it 
 for 1881 wasdivided amongst 177,278 scholars. There 
 were 4,101 school bouses in the State, valued at $3,- 
 156,210. Thenormal schools of the State are 3 in num- 
 ber, situated at Winona, Mankato audSt. Cloud. The 
 university of Minn, at Minneapolis is the crowning 
 institution of the public and free system of education 
 in the State , it has a collegiate or elementary depart- 
 ment, and beyond this department of agriculture, 
 science, literature and the arts, and the mechanic 
 arts, and is to have also schools of law and medicine. 
 The most prominent among the private institutions 
 of learning are : Carleton college, at Northfield , 
 Groveland seminary, at Wasioja; Afton academy, at 
 Afton; St. Mary's female academy and St. Paul 
 female seminary, at St. Paul. The public institutions 
 are the State prison at Stillwater, a reform school for 
 boys and girls at St. Paul, a hospital for the insane at 
 St. Peters, an asylum for the deaf, dumb and 
 blind at Faribault, and a soldiers' orphans' 
 home at Winona. — The State is divided into 79 cos., 
 viz.: Aitkin, Anoka, Becker, Beltrami, Benton, Big 
 Stone, Blue Earth, Brown, Carlton, Carver, Cass,

 ted Oct. 13, 1857. The legislature consists of a senate 
 
 of 41 members, elected for 2 years, and a house of 
 representatives elected for one year. The governor 
 and other executive officers are elected for 2 years. 
 The judiciary comprises a supreme court, nine dis- 
 trict courts, and a probate court in each co., besides 
 justices of the peace, who have jurisdiction where 
 the amount in dispute does not exceed 8100, and 
 where the title to real estate is not involved. 
 The supreme court consists of 3 judsres, elected for 
 7 years. The State sends 5 representatives to con- 
 gress and has 7 electoral votes. The bonded State 
 debtin 1883 was §4,339,000. The valuation of property 
 was: real estate, $242,938,170, personal propertv, 
 $79,219,445 ; total, $322,157,615. The revenue of the 
 State in 1881 was $1,715,406.— Minn., which in the 
 Sioux language signifies "smoky water," was the 
 name given to the principal river. Father Hennepin 
 visited the Falls of St. Anthony's in 1680. On the 8th 
 of May, 1689, possession was taken of the country in 
 the name of France. The authority of the U. States 
 was extended over it in 1812. Minn. Territory was 
 organized March 3, 1849, and on May 11th, 1858, it 
 was admitted into the Union as the 32d State. Pop.

 Mississippi (Indian Miche Sepe, the Great 
 River), the largest river of North America, and in 
 length of navigable tributaries, and in extent of fa- 
 cilities afforded to commerce, the greatest river in 
 the world. It rises in Minnesota, on the dividing 
 ridge between the waters which flow into Hudson's 
 Bay and those flowing into the Gulf of Mexico, and 
 so near the source of the Red River of the Norl h that 
 in times of freshet their waters have been known to 
 commingle. It is, at its source, 3.160 m. from its 
 mouth, a rivulet flowing from a small pool fed by 
 springs. Thence it flows through a number of pools 
 or ponds, each larger than the preceding one, until 
 it expands into Itasca Lake, whence it emerges as a 
 stream of some size, and soon becomes a river. It 
 first flows N. through Cass, Sandy, and other lakes, 
 and then, turning toward the S., rolls downward to 
 the Gulf of Mexico, pasting over more than 18 de- 
 grees of latitude. Between the source and the Falls 
 of St. Anthony are many rapids and waterfalls, but 
 the only one of any magnitude is the Pecagama 
 Rapids, 685 m. above St. Anthony. From these 
 rapids down to the St. Anthony Falls, the river is 
 navigable, and much of the scenery is very beautiful. 
 The^Fallsof St. Anthony form an insuperable bar- 
 rier to navigation, and here the St. Louis steamers 
 stop. From St. Paul to Dubuque the river flows be- 
 tween abrupt and lofty bluffs, distant from each 
 other from 2 to 6 m. and rising from 100 to 600 ft., 
 the valley or bottom being very beautiful, filled with 
 islands, and intersected in every direction by tribu- 
 taries of the Mississippi, and by the various channels 
 and "sloughs" of the river itself. The bluffs are 
 principally of limestone; they are almost uniformly 
 vertical and rugged, and nearly destitute of vegeta- 
 tion, exceptat the base and summit. There are gran- 
 deur and sublimity in every mile of this portion of 
 the river; but it becomes monotonous after a time. 
 Below Dubuque, the valley continues to preservethe 
 same general characteristics, but the blulfs are lower 
 and more like hills, and the scenery, though still 
 beautiful, is tamer. Below Alton it begins to assume 
 more the appearance of the "Lower River" (as the 
 portion below St. Louis is called); and the waters, 
 turbid and muddy, roll ou a mighty torrerc between 
 banks often low, flat, and sandy, and tne vegetation 
 continually more and more tropical in its nature. 
 The lower part of the river is so much flooded after 
 the rainy season that there is often a space of inun- 
 dated woodland from 30 to 100 m. in width ; large 
 swamps and bayous, also, are found during the 
 whole year, on both sides the river; and, indeed, the 
 whole country, nearly as far up as Natchez, 427 m. 
 from its mouth, presents nothing but a swampy wil- 
 derness, the habitat of alligators, and subject to epi-

 demic and other diseases most inimical to human 
 life. The lower part of the Mississippi, for 30 m. 
 above its delta, as far as the head called Plaque- 
 mines, is a reedy marsh, without trees and contain- 
 ing only a few fishermen's huts, and a residence for 
 pilots at Balize ; in fact, nothing can well be con- 
 ceived more dreary than the aspect of the river, even 
 as far as 70 m. above the mouth. The term "pass'' 
 is applied to all the outlets of the Mississippi from 
 the point when the river divides into numerouschan- 
 nels or outlets to their termination in the Gulf. All 
 these passes are seriously obstructed by bars of blue 
 clay mud, over which the depth of water is some- 
 times very shallow. By act of congress approved 
 March 3, 1875, a contract for the construction of 
 jetty-work at the mouth of South Pass, in order to 
 secure and maintain a navigable channel from the 
 pass into the Gulf of Mexico. The work progressed 
 so successfully that at the beginning of 1880 there 
 was in South Pass a wide and ample channel of 33J 
 ft., and for the greater length of the channel be- 
 tween the jetties, over or through the bar, a channel 
 of 28 to 35 ft. in depth. The Mississippi recipient of 
 all the waters flowing E. from the Rocky Mts., and 
 W. from the Alleghauies, is subject to periodical in- 
 undations, the effect of which is greatly heightened 
 by the flatness of the circumjacent country in the 
 lower part of its course. To secure the land from 
 these inundations, immense embankments, or levees, 
 as they are generally called, have been formed along 
 the Mississippi, and the canals or bayous through 
 which its waters overflow. The principal of these 
 levees commences at the head of the Island of Or- 
 leans, and extends down the stream for abt. 130 m. 
 The river, however, not unfrequently bursts through 
 this dyke, and submerges the adjoining country. The 
 facilities afforded by the Mississippi and its various 
 tributaries for internal navigation are wholly un- 
 equalled, except, perhaps, by the Amazon and its 
 feeders, in S. America. AndVast as are its natural 
 capacities for navigation, they have been greatly ex- 
 tended by canals and connection without - wonderful 
 system of railroads. It is also united with the grand 
 chain of lakes and the basin of the St. Lawrence; 
 and goods taken on board at New York may be trans- 
 ported to New Orleans without being unshipped. 
 ■ — a S.W. State bounded N. by Tennessee, E. by Ala- 
 bama, S. by the Gulf of Mexico and Louisima and 
 W. by Louisiana and Arkansas. It is situated be- 
 tween lat. 30° 13' and 35° N. and Ion. 88° 7' and 91° 
 41' \V. Its extreme length from N. to S. is 331.65 m. 
 and its breadth from E. to W. 210 m.; area, 46,810 
 sq. m. Along the Gulf of Mexico the country is low 
 and sandy, with frequent cypress swamps and 
 marshes. The central part of the State is hilly or un- 
 dulating and interspersed with prairies. A belt of 
 level country, covered with forests and designated 
 as the " flat woods," extends from the N. boundary 
 through the E. cos. half the length of the State, and 
 terminates in Kemper co. In the N.E. is a carboni- 
 ferous formation, elevated some 500 or 600 ft. above 
 the level of the sea. Bluffs extend along the Missis- 
 sippi R. as far N. as Vicksburg. Above that city the 
 bottom lands stretch to the Tennessee line, with a 
 width of 50 m. As far E. as the Yazoo and Talla- 
 hatchie Rs. the ground is low and swampy. Nearly 
 7,000 sq. m. are liable to inundation. The levies 
 were neglected during the war, and large tracts once 
 cultivated have become the prey of the river. The 
 waters remain stagnant in the morasses, lagoons and 
 slashes, which are the retreats of alligators, snakes, 
 lizards and swarms of venomous insects. The Missis- 
 sippi R. formsthe VV. boundary of the State formore 
 than 500 m. Its principal affluents are the Yazoo, 290 
 m. long, navigable as far as the junction of its two 
 branches, the Tallahatchie and Yalabusha ; the Big 
 Black, 200 m. long and navigable for 50 m.; the 
 
 Bayou Pierre and Homochitto. The Tennessee R. 
 forms the N.E. boundary for 20 m. The Tombigbee 
 rises in this State and is navigable for steamboats to 
 Aberdeen. Pearl R., which forms a part of the boun- 
 dary between Miss, and La., is 250 m. in length, and 
 small boats navigate it for 100 m. The Pascagoula, 
 which flows into the Gulf of Mexico, has a broad bay 
 at its mouth, in which the depth of wateris only four 
 ft. Every part of the State is well watered, and the 
 river system affords more than 2,000 m. of steamboat 
 navigation. The coast line on the Gulf of Mexico is 
 88 m. in length. None of the harbors, are deep 
 enough for the admission of large vessels. A chain 
 of low islands extends beyond Mississippi Sound abt. 
 10 m. from the main land. In the S.E. are extensive 
 and dense groves of pine, principally of the long- 
 leaved variety. Live-oak and red cedar, for ship- 
 building, are abundant. Except in the Mississippi 
 bottom, where malarial fevers frequently occur in 
 summer, the State is generally healthy. The summers 
 are long and hot, the winters somewhat colder than 
 in the same latitude on the Atlantic coast. The iso- 
 thermal lines which cross the State are : Spring 65' 
 70° ; Summer, 80°-82°; Autumn, 65°-70°; Winter, 
 45°-55°; annual means, 60°-70°. — The soil of the 
 Mississippi bottom is very fertile. The region E. of 
 this, characterized by the deposits of yellow loam, is 
 generally fertile, though in places easily exhausted. 
 The N.E. portion, except the prairies, is less produc- 
 tive. The cane hills and the central belt of the State 
 possesses a generally productive soil. The S. region 
 has a generally poor and sandy soil, particularly 
 along the coast. Miss, is almost exclusively an agri- 
 cultural State. Cotton and Indian corn are the staple 
 crops. Wheat and other grains are grown in the 
 North, and rice and sugar cane in the South. All the 
 fruits of temperate climates grow here in perfection ; 
 plums, peaches, and figs are abundant, and in the 
 South the orange. The deer, couguar (commonly 
 called panther), wolf, bear, and wild cat are still 
 common. Paroquets are seen as far N. as Natchez, 
 and wild turkeys and pigeons abound. Oysters and 
 fish are abundant in Mississippi sound. — According 
 to the census of 1880, the number of farms was 75,205 
 comprising 13,813,000 acres, of which 4,895,000 were 
 in cultivation. The principal products for the census 
 year were 21,340,800 bush, of corn, 1,959,620 of oats, 
 218,890 of wheat, 955,808 bales of cotton, 526,625 
 galls, of molasses, and 1,718,951 lbs. of rice. The 
 live stock consisted of 112,309 horses ; 129,778 mules; 
 61,705 working oxen, 268,178 milch cows, 387,4bC 
 other cattle, 287,694 sheep, and 1,151,818 swine*- 
 Very little attention has been given to manufactures. 
 The census of 1880 reported 1,479 manufacturing 
 establish ments, employing 5,827 hands ;cap. invested. 
 84.727,600; wages paid during the year $1,192,645; 
 value of material, $4,667,183 ; value of products, 
 $7,518,302. Among the leading articles were lumber, 
 grist-mill products.and cotton goods $679,093 the pro- 
 duct of 8 cotton mills, working 644 looms and 18,568 
 spindles. — The foreign trade is carried on largely 
 through New Orleans and Mobile, Cotton and lum- 
 ber are the chief exports. The coasting and river 
 trade is large. The coasting trade is chiefly directed 
 to Mobile and New Orleans, while the Mississippi R. 
 trade centres in the latter, and that of the Tombig- 
 bee in Mobile. The railroads terminating at these two 
 ports and at Memphis are also large carriers of mer- 
 chandise. There are three customs districts: Nat- 
 chez, Pearl River (port of entrv, Shieldsborough), 
 and Vicksburg. The direct foreign and the coasting 
 trade are centred entirely in the district of Pear! R. 
 The value of foreign commerce fori he year 1882 was 
 $535,534, ft., almost entirely exports, including 
 22,557 m. ft. of boards, and 1,500,923 cubic ft. of tim- 
 ber. The number of entrances in the foreign trade 
 was 100, of 56,405 tons ; clearances, 116 of 59,429 
 
MIS

 tons. The number of vessels belonging in the State 
 was 193 of 9,720 tons, viz.: Natchez, 5 of 254 tons; 
 Pearl R., 158 of 6,110 tons ; Vicksburg, 29 of 3,356. 
 In 18S2 there were 1,231 m. of railroad in the State. 
 — Free public schools are required by the constitu- 
 tion for all between the ages of 5 and 21 years. In 
 1881 the number of educable children was 175,251 
 whites and 251,433 colored: enrolled in puhlic schools, 
 112,994 whites, and 123,710 colored ; average daily 
 attendance 72.8S1 whites and 83.880 colored ; teachers 
 employed, 3,255 whites and 2,314 colored : total school 
 expenditures, §830,704. The University of Miss, in- 
 cludes a preparatory department and three general 
 departments, viz. scientific, literary and professional. 
 In 1881 there were 329 students in the literary de- 
 partment and 18 in the lower department. The in- 
 come of the university is little above the amount 
 needed for current expenses. It is greatly In need of 
 a library building and books to put in it ; the law 
 department has no building; and a good refracting 
 telescope ought to be provided for the observatory. 
 One good building can be made to accommodate both 
 the library and law department. The greatest need 
 of the university, however, is good schools of a high 
 grade in different pa.ts of the State to prepare boys 
 for the university, and to excite iu them a desire for 
 education. To have these schools there must be a 
 supply of competent teachers, and to meet this de- 
 mand' there must be established a normal school for 
 the special training of teachers. A normal depart- 
 ment couldbe established and maintained at the uni- 
 versity Kt a comparatively small expense. The agri- 
 cultural and mechanical college had, in 1881, 354 stu- 
 dents matriculated, and the average attendance was 
 over 200. Alcorn agricultural and mechanical col- 
 lege is as prosperous as the improverished condition 
 of the colored people of the State will warrant. 
 There were in attendance 160 students in 1881. The 
 State normal school is doing much good in educa- 
 ting the colored youth of Doth sexes. The educa- 
 tional institutions of the State are almost exclusively 
 for the instruction of young men. No facilities have 
 been provided by the'State for the instruction of fe- 
 males in the higher branches of learning. The peni- 
 tentiary contained, in 1SS1, 876 convicts, of which 
 782 were colored. 92 white, and 2 Indians. The insti- 
 tutions for the deaf and dumb and for the blind are 
 designed to be training schools rather than asylums. 
 The asylum for the insane 442 inmates in 1881. All 
 of the" above institutions are located at Jackson. — 
 Miss, is divided into 74 cos., viz.: Adams, Alcorn, 
 Amite, Attala, Benton, Bolivar, Calhoun, Carroll,

 Holly Springs, Jackson (the cap.), Meridian, Nat- 
 chez and Vicksburg. — The State is governed under 
 the constitution approved Nov. 30. 1869. The legisla- 
 ture, which meets annually, consists of 37 senators 
 and 115 representatives, elected for 2 years. The 
 governor and other executive officers are chosen for 
 4 years. The supreme court consists of 3 judges ap- 
 pointed by the governor and confirmed by the senate, 
 who hold"office for 9 years. The State sends 7 repre- 
 sentatives to congress, and has 9 electoral votes. 
 The total debt of" the State in 1882 was 82.363.251. 
 The valuation of taxable property was §116,289,810 
 
 (realty 879,712,851 ; personalty, 836.576.959). In 16S2 
 La Salle took possession of this region in the name 
 of the king of France, and called it Louisiana. In 
 1699 a fort was en-cted on the bay of Biloxi. The 
 Choetaws, Chickasaws, Natchez and other Indians 
 were bitterly hostile, and committed great depreda- 
 tions upon the settlers. Miss. Territory was organized 
 April 7, 1798. On the 10th of Dec, 1817, Miss, was 
 admitted into the Union as the 20th State. An ordi- 
 nance of secession was passed Jan. 9, 1861. Biloxi was 
 captured by the Federal forces, Dec. 31, 1S61. Vicks- 
 burg, after along siege, was captured bv the Federal 
 troops, July 4, 1863. On the 22d of August, 1865, the 
 ordiuance of secession was repealed. The 14th and 
 15th amendments were ratified in Jan., 1870; Con- 
 gress passed an act of readmission, Feb. 23. 1870.

 and takes its name after the union at Gallatin City, 
 Montana, of 3 branches denominated Jefferson, Gal- 
 latin, and Madison. The springs which give rise to 
 the Missouri are not more than a mile distant from 
 some of the head waters of the Columbia, which 
 flows W. into the Pacific Ocean. At the distance of 
 411 m. from the extreme point of the navigation of 
 its head branches, are what are denominated the 
 "Gates of the Rockv Mts.," which present a view 
 exceedingly grand. For the distance of 5f m. the 
 rocks rise perpendicularly from the margin of the 
 riverto the height of 1,200" ft. The riveris compressed 
 I to the width of 150 vards, and for the first three 
 
654 
 
 miles, there is only one spot, and that only of a few 
 yards, on which a man could stand between the 
 water and the perpendicular ascent of the mountain. 
 At the distance of 110 m. below this, and 521 m. from 
 its source are the Great falls, 2,575 m. above its en- 
 trance into the Mississippi. The river descends, by a 
 succession of rapids and falls, 357 ft. in abt. 16J m. 
 The lower and greatest fall has a perpendicular pitch 
 of 87 ft.; the second of 19 ft.; the third ot 47 ft.; the 
 fourth of 26 it. Between and below these falls are 
 contiuual rapids of from 3 to 18 ft. descent. The 
 course of the river above these falls is northerly. 
 The Yellowstone R., 800 yards wide at its mouth, 
 probably the largest tributary of the Missouri, enters 
 it on the S.W. side, 1,216 m. from its navigable 
 source, and abt. 1,880m. from itsmouth, on the border 
 of Montana and Dakota. This river, at the place of 
 junction, is as large as the Missouri; Steamboats as- 
 cend to this place, and could go farther to the Great 
 Falls almost at the very base of the mountains. Its 
 other principal tributaries are the Little Missouri, 
 Big Cheyenne, White Earth, Niobrarah, Platte or 
 Nebraska, Kansas, and Osage on the right, and the 
 Milk, Dakota, Big Sioux, Little Sioux, and Grand on 
 the left. The Missouri enters Mississippi R., 3,096 m. 
 from its source, which added to 1,253 m., the dis- 
 tance to the gulf of Mexico, makes its whole length 
 4,349 m. Through its whole course, there is no sub- 
 stantial obstruction of the navigation, before arriving 
 at the great falls. Its principal tributaries are each 
 navigable, from 100 to 800 m. The alluvial, fertile 
 soil ou this stream and its tributaries is not very 
 broad, and back of this are prairies of vast extent. 
 Through the greater part of . its course the Missouri 
 is a rapid and turbid stream, and in the upper part 
 of its course, flows through an arid and sterile coun- 
 try. It is over half a mile wide at its mouth, and 
 through a greater part of its course it is wider. Not- 
 withstanding it drains such an extensive country, 
 and receives so many large tributaries, at certain 
 seasons it is shallow, hardly affording sufficient water 
 for steamboat navigation, owing to its passing through 
 a dry and open country, and being subject to exten- 
 sive evaporation. 
 
 — a central State, bounded N. by Iowa ; E. by Illinois, 
 Kentucky, and Tennessee, from which the Mississippi 
 R. divides it; S. by Arkansas; and W. by Indian terri- 
 tory, Kansas, and Nebraska, from which it is divided 
 by a N. and S. lineon the meridian of the mouth of Kan- 
 sas R., and thence N. by the main channel of the Mis- 
 souri R. It is situated between lat. 36° and 40° 30' N., : 
 and Ion. 89° 2' and 95° 42' W.; length N. and S. 277 m.; 
 average breadth abt. 244 m., varying from 208 m. in the 
 N. to 312 m. in the S.; area, 69,415 sq. m., including 
 a narrow strip between the St. Francois and Missis- 
 sippi Rs. in the S.E. The State presents a variety of 
 surface and of soil. South of Gape Girardeau, with 
 the exception of some bluffs along the Mississippi, it 
 is alluvial, and a large proportion consistsof swamps 
 and inundated lands, most of which are heavily tim- 
 bered. From thence to the Missouri R., and west- 
 ward to the dividing ridge between Gasconade and 
 Osage Rs., the country is generally covered with 
 timber, rolling, and in some parts quite hilly ; but 
 no parts of the State are properly mountains. Along 
 the head waters of Gasconade and Big Black Rs., 
 the hills are frequently abrupt and rocky, with fertile 
 alluvion alongthe water courses. Much of this region 
 abounds with various minerals, as lead, iron ore, 
 gypsum, manganese, zinc, antimony, cobalt, ochres, 
 common salt, nitre, plumbago, porphyry, jasper, 
 chalcedony, buhrstone, marble and free stone. The 
 lead is inexhaustible in quantity and rich in quality. 
 The iron ore of this region is sufficient to supply the 
 whole U. States for many thousands of years. Bitu- 
 minous coal exists in inexhaustible abundance. The 
 W. part of this State is divided into prairie and for- 
 
 est land, and much of the soil is fertile. The whole is 
 undulating, and along the Osage it is hilly, abound- 
 ing with good water, salt springs and limestone. N. 
 of the Missouri, the surface is diversified, and divided 
 between timber and prairie laud. From the Missouri 
 to Salt R. good springs are scarce, and in several cos. 
 artificial wells are dug, to be filled with rain water 
 from the roofs of houses. Between Salt R. and Des 
 Moines R. is a beautiful country, with a very fertile 
 soil. In the middle cos. N. of the Missouri the sur- 
 face is rolling, and there are some bluffs and hills, 
 with considerable good prairie, and much timber, 
 To the W. of this, and also to the N., the prairie pre 
 dominates. Much of the prairie laud in this State is 
 inferior to the same kind of land in Illinois. But in- 
 dependently of some barren and inundated land, the 
 State contains a great proportion of fertile soil. In- 
 dian corn, wheat, rye, pats, hemp, tobacco, flax, 
 sweet potatoes, and in the S.E. parts cotton, are 
 produced. Grapes are extensively cultivated in sev- 
 eral cos., and large quantities of. wine are annually 
 produced. The forest trees and underwood, black 
 and white, are walnut, oak of various kinds, locust, 
 ash, cottonwood, papaw, yellow poplar, sycamore ; 
 dogwood and grape vines. In the S. part of the State 
 cypress and red cedar are found. On Gasconade R. 
 abt. 100 m. above its confluence with the Missouri, 
 the timber is principally yellow and white pine, 
 which is very valuable, being rare in the valley of 
 the Mississippi. The State is particularly rich in 
 minerals. The lead region, the centre of which is 70 
 m. S.W. of Missouri, is 70 m. long, and 15 wide, cov- 
 ering an area of 3,150 sq. m. The greatest part of 
 this country is situated in Washington and St. Fran- 
 cis cos., but a part extends into St. Genevieve and 
 Jefferson cos. The ore is of the richest kind. It 
 yields from 80 to 85 per cent, of the true metal. Iron 
 ore is equally abundant. In the S.E. part of Wash- 
 ington co. is the celebrated " iron mountain" filled 
 with micaceous oxide of iron, which yields 80 per 
 cent, of the pure metal. There is ano her body of 
 iron ore denominated Pilot Knob, which is equally 
 rich. Washington co. is a perfect bed of metallic 
 treasures. — The Mississippi winds along the entire 
 boundary of the State, for a distance of 400 m., and 
 receives the waters of the mighty Missouri, which 
 crosses the State, and deserves to be regarded, ou 
 account of its length, and the volume of its waters, 
 as the parent stream. The Missouri receives La Mine, 
 Osage, and Gasconade R«. on the 8. side, and Grand 
 and"Cbariton Rs. on the N. side. Salt R. crosses ths 
 N.E. part of the State and outers Mississippi R., 85 
 m. above the mouth of Missouri R. Des Moines R. 
 forms a part of the N.E. bouudary of the State. 
 Meramee R. rises near the head waters of Gasconade 
 R., and after a devious course N.E., enters the 
 Mississippi 18 m. below St. Louis. St. Francis, Cur- 
 rent, Big Black, and Whitewater Rs. drain its S.E. 
 part.— The climate is healthy, though subject to 
 great extremes of heat and cold. The extreme range 
 of the thermometer is from 100° above zero to 8° be- 
 low. But these extremes are short, and not of fre- 
 quent occurrence. The Missouri is frozen so hard as 
 to be safely crossed bv loaded wagons for a number 
 of weeks in winter. The air is generally dry, pui'ii 
 and salubrious.— According to the U. States census 
 of 1880, the coal mined during that year, from i44 
 mines in 13 cos., was 543,990 tons, valued at 81.087,r 
 100. The yield of 48 iron mines in 8 cos. was386,U7 
 tons of ore, valued at §1,674,875. The yield of 3 cop- 
 per miues in Ste. Genevieve co. was 1,051 tons of ore, 
 valued at $25,730. The principal agricultural prod- 
 ucts for the census year 1880 were, 123,031 bis. of 
 barley, 202,485,723 of corn, 20,670,958 of oats, 535,420 
 of rye, 24,966,627 of wheat, 6,621,720 of potatoes- 
 1,147,770 tons of hay, 11,027.720 lbs. of tobacco, and 
 20,318 bales of cotton. Among other valuable proa- 
 
MIS

 nets may be enumerated hemp (which grows of the 
 finest quality on the strong soils bordering the Mis- 
 souri R. and in the elm lands of Marion and other 
 cos.), flax, sorghum, broom corn, flax seed, grass 
 seeds, castor beans, peanuts, honey and dairy pro- 
 ducts. The dairy interest is large and increasing. No 
 State has greater advantages for the manufacture of 
 choice butter and cheese than this. The live stock 
 on farms in 18S0 consisted of 667,776 horses ; 192,027 
 mules : 9,020 working oxen; 661,405 milch cows, 
 1,410,507 other cattle ; 1,411,298 sheep ; and 4,553,123 
 hogs. — Mo. had, in 1880,8,592 manuf. establishments, 
 employing 63,995 hands ; capital invested, $72,507,- 
 844 ; wasres paid during the year, $24,309,716 ; value 
 of materials, 8110,793,392; value of products, $165,- 
 386,205. The manuf. interests of Mo. embraced a 
 great variety of fabrics. Iron especially is worked in 
 large quantities, and into almost every conceivable 
 kind of articles. The city of St. Louis ranks third in 
 the Union in the value and variety of its manufac- 
 tures.— The foreign commerce of the State, though 
 of considerable amount, is all indirect, it having lit- 
 tle or no direct importations, and St. Louis being 
 hardly more than nominally a port of entry for for- 
 eign commerce. The ports of New Orleans, Chicago, 
 Milwaukee, New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and 
 Norfolk afford it all necessary facilities for this pur- 
 pose. Its domestic or interior commerce is of vast 
 amount, and is transacted with all parts of the conti- 
 nent. Over the trans-continental railways and the 
 Mississippi R. its freights of provisions, merchandise, 
 gold, silver, quicksilver, lead, copper, iron and coal 
 reach hundreds of millions, while its exportation 
 eastward and southward of flour,grain, hardware, iron 
 castings, pig irou, and a great variety of other prod- 
 ucts amounts to still greater sums. The amount of 
 this traffic through the State annually must greatly 
 exceed $1.000,000,000.— Mo. ha 1 38 m. of railroad in 
 1853; in 1880. 817; in 1870, 2,000 ; and in 1882, 4,211 
 of main track and branches. — The educational pro- 
 visions of Mo. are commensurate with the magnitude 
 of its territory and of its population. The available 
 revenues from all sources for school purposes are 
 nearly $4,000,000. The total permanent invested 
 school f unds amount to $7,278,000. There are in the 
 State over 8,000 public school houses, with abt. half 
 a million attendant scholars, instructed by 12,000 
 teachers. These schools are free to all children of 
 proper age within their respective districts. The large 
 towns and cities have graded and high schools. 
 Many of them possess spacious, convenient and hand- 
 some school buildings. The public school system of 
 St. Louis has for many years ranked among the 
 highest and most efficient in the Union. Kansas City, 
 St. Joseph. Hannibal, Brookfield, Chillicothe, Se- 
 dalia and Springfield are specially noted for theirex- 
 cellent public institutions of learning. Numerous 
 private institutions, doing good work, are found in 
 all the larger towns and cities. The State has provided 
 for the education of teachers by the establishment and 
 maintenance of three State normal schools at Kirks- 
 ville, Warrensburg and Cape Girardeau. Lincoln in- 
 stitute, at Jefferson City, is devoted to the education 
 of colored teachers, and receives annually a liberal 
 State appropriation. The State university at Colum- 
 bia ranks high as an institution of liberal and thor- 
 ough culture. At this place, and as a department of 
 the university, is located the State agricultural col- 
 lege. With it is connected an experimental farm of 
 640 acres. At Rolla is a school of mines and metal- 
 lurgy. At St. Louis, St. Joseph, Springfield. Colum- 
 bia, Hannibal, Palmyra, Canton, Favette, Glasgow, 
 Independence, Kidder, Liberty, Fulton and in other 
 cities are denominational seminaries, academies and 
 colleges, including, among others, law, medical, 
 theological and polytechnic schools.— The State is 
 divided into 114 cos., viz.: Adair, Andrew, Atchison, 
 
 Audrain, Barry, Barton, Bates, Benton, Bollinger.

 — The State is governed under the constitution of 
 1865, as several times since amended The legislature, 
 which holds biennial sessions, consists of 34 sen- 
 ators elected for 4 years, and 131 representatives elec- 
 ted for 3 years. The governor and other State officers 
 are elected for 2 years. The supreme court consists of 6 
 judges elected by the people for 6 years, and divided 
 into two sections. Mo. sends 13 representatives to 
 congress, and has 15 electoral votes. The State debt 
 in 1881 was $16,259,000. The valuation of taxable 
 property was $509,369,785. — Mo. was visited by 
 Joliet and Marquette in 1673. The first settlement 
 was made at Ste. Genevieve, in 1755. Up to 1751 there 
 were but 6 settlements within 100 m. of the present 
 site of St. Louis, which was founded in 1764. A com- 
 binedattack upon the town by the British and Indians 
 was successfully repulsed. The territory was pur- 
 chased bv the U. States from the French in 1803, as 
 a part of Louisiana. Mo. was admitted into the Union 
 as the 24th State, Aug. 10, 1S21. Early in the civil 
 war there were conflicts between the State militia 
 and the U. State troops. Governor Jackson issued a 
 proclamation declaring the State out of the Union. 
 The battle of Wilson's Creek, in which Maj.-Gen. 
 Lyon was killed, was fought Aug. 10, 1861. Maj.- 
 Gen. Fremont declared martial law throughout the 
 State on the 31st of August. In the early part of 1862 
 the Confederate troopsheld half of Mb., until Gen. 
 Price was driven into Arkansas by a strong Federal 
 force. A distressing guerrilla warfare kept the in- 
 habitants in continual alarm. To the Federal side 
 108,773 soldiers were furnished during the war. Gen. 
 Price again invaded Missouri in 1864, and was again 
 forced to retreat. Pop. in 1810, 20,845 • in 1840, 383,-

 Mohile, Ala., a river and bay in the S. part of 
 the State. The river Mobile is formed by the conflu- 
 ence of the Alabama and Tombigbee. A few miles 
 below this point it divides into two branches, the 
 eastern one of which takes the name of Tensas, the 
 western retaining that of Mobile. Before reuniting, 
 both these streams separate into several other subdi- 
 visions, all of which meet in one common embouch- 
 ure at the head of Mobile Bay. The length of the 
 Mobile R. is abt. 50 m., and its general direction is 8. 
 In the lower part of its course the banks are marshy 
 and alluvial.— The bay of Mobile is abt. 30 m. iu 
 length from N. to 8., with a general width of 10 or 
 12 m., except where it expands on the S.E. into the 
 subsidiary bay of Bon Seeours, which extends some 
 8 or 10 m. further to the E. The entrance from the 
 Gulf of Mexico, between Mobile point on the E, and 
 Dauphine island on the W., is abt. 3 m. wide, and is 
 commanded by Fort Morgan on Mobile point, and 
 Fort Gaines on Dauphine island. The bay has anothe: 
 outlet on the southwest through Grant's pass, N. of 
 Dauphine island, which communicates with Missis- 
 sippi sound. Through this channel steamers and other 
 vessels of light draught generally pass when plying 
 between Mobile and New Orleans. The bar in front 
 of the main entrance of the bay admits of the pas- 
 sage of vessels drawing 21 or 22 ft. The ordinary an- 
 chorage for ships is 4 or 5 m. within the entrance of 
 the bay. The whole of the upper portion of the bay 
 is shallow, and is supposed to be gradually filling up 
 with sedimentary deposits from the rivers that flGW 
 into it. There is a liyht-house on Mobile point ; an- 
 other on Sand island, 3 m. S., immediately in front 
 of the entrance ; and one at the head of the bay, a 
 little below the city of Mobile, 
 —the most S.W. co.; area, 1,200 sq. m. It is bounded 
 E. by Mobile R. and Bay, S. by the Gulf of Mexico, 
 and W. by Miss. It is generally level, sandy, and cov- 
 ered with pine forests'". Rice and lumber are leading 
 prod. The co. has important commerce and manu- 
 factures, chiefly carried on at Mobile, the cap. val. 
 of taxable prop. abt. $30,000,000. Pop. 48,602 (of

 at the point of junction of L.&N. and M.&U.RRs,. 
 situated on a sandy plain gently rising from the riv- 
 er's hauk, is regularly built, well paved, lighted, and 
 shaded, has a due supply of water from Spring Hill, 
 5 m. distant, has 6 lines of street railroads, and en- 
 joys a eliniate usually healthy, though subject to 
 occasional ravages of yellow fever. The suburbs em- 
 brace several beautiful hills, upon which are the 
 summer residences of the wealthier citizens, and 
 which afford a healthful resort in seasons of epi- 
 demic. The harbor is extremely shallow, but has 
 been of late so much improved that vessels drawing 
 13 ft. of water can now reach the wharves. Mobile 
 has 2 uat. and 4 other banks, 9 insurance companies, 
 30 churches, 2 daily and 3 vvkly papers, an extensive 
 public school system, besides numerous private 
 schools, a Jesuit college at Spring Hill, an academy, 
 conducted by the Sisters of the Visitation at Sum- 
 merville, and 7 other Catholic schools, Barton Acad- 
 emy, the Alabama Medical College, 4 orphan asy- 
 lums, a city hospital, a U. States marine hospital, the 
 Providence infirmary, a spacious custom-house, af- 
 fording accommodations for the post-office, and the 
 U.S. courts for the southern district of Alabama, a 
 line market-house, with municipal offices above, an 
 extensive export trade, chiefly in cotton and naval 
 stores, of lumber, rosin, and turpentine, and a mod- 
 erate import trade, of which coffee forms the most 
 important article. The value of exports for the year 
 1880 was 86,219,S18; of imports, 8544,628. The annu- 
 al entrances from foreign ports average about 50, and 
 from domestic ports 130, of which 65 sailing vessels 
 of 7,328 tons, and 40 steamers of 6,66* tons in aggre- 
 gate were owned here in 1880, the latter plying upon 
 the Alabama, Tombigbee, and Black Warrior Rs. 
 Mobile was founded in 1702 by Lemoyue de Bienville 
 as the cap. of Louisana, which it continued to be 
 until 1723. It passed to England in 1763 ; was cap- 
 tured by Spain in 1780, and ceded to the U. States in

 Monta'na, a territory, bounded N. by British 
 America, E. by Dakota, S. by Wyoming and S.W, 
 and W. by Idaho. It is situated between lat. 44° 10' 
 and 49° N., and Ion. 104° and 116° W. The extreme 
 length from E. to W. is 550 m., the breadth 280 m., 
 and the area 146,080 sq. m. Mont, is naturally divi- 
 ded by its physical conformation into four sections. 
 The N.W. district, between the Rocky and Bitter 
 Root Mts., is broken and rugged, and intersected by 
 many mountain spurs. The N. district, extending for 
 350 m. along the Milk and Missouri Rs., is an open 
 plain, destitute of trees, and descending towards tlie 
 E. at the rate of five feet to the mile. The S.E. sec- 
 tion is more rolling and better wooded. The S.W. sec- 
 tion, containing 15,000 sq. m., is mountainous and 
 covered with dense forests. Among the highest 
 mountains are Electric Peak (10,992 ft.), Emigrant 
 Peak (10,629), Mount Delano (10,200) and Mount 
 Blackmore (10,134). Three-fifths of the territory is a 
 broad open plain, and the mean elevation is 3,950 ft. 
 Towards its S. boundary it dips into that remarkable 
 region, the Yellowstone national park, a part of 
 which is within its limits. "In this ' Land of the 
 Mountains,' or Toy-a-be £>hoek-up, as the Snake In- 
 dians call it, there is a loneliness, silence, and sub- 
 lime grandeur that is exceedingly impressive. Every 
 one feels it when entering the territory, and it seems 
 to hold them ever afterward. The solitudes are so 
 profound, the mountain heights so awe-inspiring in 
 their magnificent proportions, that man is overpow- 
 ered by them. No noises break upon the air ; evea 
 the birds and animals are mute. Above there is a sky 
 of serene beauty, and all around an atmosphere that 
 is purity itself. No noisome exhalations from stag- 
 nant pools and decaying vegetation are encountered, 
 nor is there anything to mar the harmony of the 
 scene. On every hand rise gigantic peaks, many of 
 them covered with perpetual snow, and away off in 
 the distance may be traced the sinuous courses of 
 rivers and streams, whose banks are bordered with 
 thick growths of trees and bushes." A. G. Bracken. 
 Three of the great continental rivers rise 'within the 
 borders of Mont., one of which, the Yellowstone, 
 navigable for a distance of 450 m., lies wholly with- 
 in its boundaries ; and the Missouri, from its source, 
 "The Three Forks," is carried nearly a thousand 
 miles on Montana soil, or about one-quarter of its en- 
 tire length, while in the valleys of the W. slope 
 gather the waters that unite to form the great Colum- 
 bia that pours its flood into the Pacific. It is estimated 
 that fully three-fifths of the surface of the territory 
 is suitable for agricultural purposes, and nearly 
 another fifth could be added to cover the extent of 
 surface adapted for grazing. Early frosts may occa- 
 sionally interfere with the ripening cereals, but as 
 a rule the seasons compare favorably with many oi 
 the more southerly points on the eastern plains. The

 rainfall of this region is slight in comparison with 
 many other districts on the same parallel, but the 
 streams that flow from the mountain ranges furnish 
 an abundant supply of water for purposes of irriga- 
 tion, which, as a basis of agriculture, is far more re- 
 liable and secures better results. " By the most con- 
 servative," says the U. States surveyor of Montana 
 (Report of Aug. 19, 1882), "the pop. of Mout. is es- 
 timated at 55,000, and the Increase of the last two 
 years is made up almost wholly of the producing 
 classes, many agriculturists having been attracted to 
 the E. portion of the territory by the progress and 
 liberal policy of the N.P.RR., while the rich grasses 
 of the many valleys, such as the Judith, Musselshell, 
 Tongue River, and the Yellowstone, have attracted 
 the attention of stockmen generally, many having 
 moved their ranches from Wyoming and other points 
 to the more attractive grazing lands of Montana. 
 The Lower Yellowstone and its tributaries, especially 
 those from the 3., flow through first-class arable 
 lauds, and iu many cases are capable of producing 
 crops without irrigation. The advance of the 
 Northern Pacific in "1882, has been rapid, and with 
 the close of the present season the road will be in 
 operation to Bozeman, 110 m. from Helena. The 
 Utah and Northern branch of U.P.RR., has been ex- 
 tended to Deer Lodge, 40 m. W. of Helena, and is 
 being extended N. to a connection with the Northern 
 Pacific. With the opening of another season Mont, 
 is, therefore, bound to receive a material increase in 
 pop. from immigrants looking for homes. Here is an 
 immense territory where a larger proportion of pro- 
 ductive lands are open to pre-empiion than in any 
 other equal area of the U. States. Stock-raising is an 
 important industry, and is growing rapidly ; but; the 
 most attractive of all pursuits is that of mining, upon 
 which depends the future prosperity of this territory. 
 From 1863 to the close of the year 1880, Mont, has 
 added to the permanent wealth of the world, 
 in gold and silver, over $160,000,000, and the produc- 
 tion of bullion for 1882 aggregated at least $7,000,000. 
 As the production of silver is on the increase, a 
 larger total may be expected in the future from, year 
 to year. With the advent of railroads cheaper trans- 
 portation facilities will be afforded, and a lower 
 grade of ore may be profitably worked than has 
 hitherto been possible. Bullion and ore may be more 
 cheaply shipped and all the necessaries of life greatly 
 reduced in cost, and labor, therefore, rendered more 
 reasonable. Lewis and Clarke and Jefferson cos., 
 contain several rich mining districts, among which 
 may be mentioned Red Mt. and Ten Mile, Belmont, 
 Wickes, Clancy, and the Gregory district. Virginia 
 City is one of the oldest and most productive of the 
 gold placer mining districts. Among the most prom- 
 ising of the newly discovered districts, Clarke's Fork, 
 or Cooke City, as it is now known, situated near the S. 
 boundary of the territory, in the restored portion of 
 the Crow Indian reservation, has attracted considera- 
 ble notice of late. The district surrounding the town of 
 Butte is in the lead as regards production, and the 
 great richness of the mines is scarcely known out- 
 side of Mont. There are 7 mills, 4 smelters and 3 con- 
 centrators now in operation, yet the facilities for 
 treating ore are entirely inadequate. The Alice 
 company operates 65 stamps in one mill, which is 
 the largest dry crusher in the world. With the com- 
 pletion of the N.P.RR. and other lines in construe 
 lion or contemplation, and with the increase in her 
 mining industries, it may be justly predicted that 
 Mont, is about to enter upon a field of development 
 and growth of which the surrounding territories have 
 hitherto held the supremacy." The assessment val. 
 of taxable prop, in Mont, for the year 1881 was as 
 follows : 424,700 acres of land and improvements, 
 §3,511,646; 7,147 town lots and improvements, $3.- 
 030,772; 63,114 horses, $2,406,328; 2,267 mules and 
 
 asses, $151,907; 200,402 sheep, $729,228; 253,440 cat- 
 tle, $3,694,871; 8,347 hogs, $38,248. The Territory 
 of Mont, was established by act of congress, May 
 26, 1864, and is governed as the other Terri- 
 tories of the Union. It is divided into 12 cos., 
 viz.: Beaver Head, Choteau, Custer, Dawson, Deer 
 Lodge, Gallatin, Jefferson, Lewis and Clarke, Madi- 
 son, Meagher, Missoula and Silver Bow. The princi- 
 pal towns are : Bozeman, Butte City, Deer Lodge 
 City, Dillon, Fort Benton, Helena (the cap.), Miles 
 City, Missoula, Radersburg, Virginia City and White 
 Sulphur Springs. Pop. iu 1870, 20,595 ; in 1880, 39,- 
 159 (of whom 28,177 males and 10,982 females, 27,638 
 natives, and 11,521 of foreign birth, 35,385 whites, 
 346 colored, 1,765 Chinese and 1,663 taxed Indians} 
 The tribal Indians, according to the report of the 
 commissioner of Indian affairs for 1882, number 18.- 
 705. Their reservations are divided into 5 agencies, 
 viz.: Blackfeet, Crow, Flathead, Fort Belknap and 
 Fort Peck.

 With each other, comprising the island of Nantucket, 
 the islets of Tuckernuek and Muskeget, and the 
 Gravelly and Swyle Islands adjacent to it on the W.; 
 aggregate area, 48 sq. m. Nantucket island is situa- 
 ted in the Atlantic ocean, 18 in. S. of Cape Cod, 85 
 m. S.E. Boston, and is separated from Mal tha's Vine- 
 yard on the W. by a channel 8 in. w ide. It is of an 
 irregular triangular form, abt. 16 m. long from E. to 
 W., and for the most part from 3 to 4 m. wide, with 
 an area of abt. 45 sq. m. It has a level surface in the 
 S., and is slightly hilly in the N. The soil is light, 
 and with the exception of some low pines, the island 
 is treeless. There are several ponds containing fine 
 fish. Farming and fishing are the chief occupations 
 of the people, the surrounding waters abounding in 
 fish of various kinds. The climate is mild in winter 
 and cool in summer, and the island has of late be- 
 come a favorite summer resort. It constitutes a cus- 
 toms district, but has little commerce. There is a 
 light-house on Sankaty Head (lat. 41° 17' N.,lon. 69° 
 67' 35" W.), near the S.E. extremity of the island; 
 another, known as Nantucket light, on Sandy or 
 Great Point (lat. 41° 23' 22", Ion. 70° 2' 25" ), at the 
 N.E. extremity ; and several W. of the entrance to 
 Nantucket Harbor. Wrecks are not infrequent. Nan- 
 tucket shoals, about 50 m. long and 45 m. wide, are 
 S.E. of the island, and are dangerous to navigation. 
 There are 2 p. vs., Nantucket on the N. side of the is- 
 land, and Siasconset on the S.E. Nantucket Harbor 
 is deep and secure, though the entrance is obstruct- 
 ed by a bar with only 7£ ft. of water at low tide. 
 Steamers run daily to Wood's Hole on Cape Cod, 
 connecting with railroad for Boston. The v. of Nan- 
 tucket, p.<f>and cap. of the co., has a nat. and a sav- 
 ings bank, 2 wkly papers, the Coffin high school, and 
 an athenaium containing a museum of marine curios- 
 ities and a library of 4,500 volumes. Nantucket has 
 been chiefly noted as a seat of the whale fishery, hav- 
 ing been at one time the chief whaling port of the 
 world. The town increased in size and prosperity till 
 1846, when it was visited by a severe conflagration, 
 destroying property to the value of nearly $1,000,000. 
 After this the whale fishery and with it the prosper- 
 ity of the town rapidly declined. Pop. in 1840, 9,012 ;

 m. E.N.E. Memphis, and 240 m. S.S.W. Cincinnati. 
 The city rests upon a series of hills composed of 
 solid limestone, and a range of hills surround it, 
 presenting a fine panoramic view from all sides. Two 
 bridges connect Nashville with Edgefield, on the 
 other side of the river, which now forms part of the 
 city. Not another city in the South can claim so 
 great a number of imposing public structures, in- 
 cluding educational, religious, society and other in- 
 stitutions. On Capitol Hill, overlooking the city, is 
 situated a State Capitol, built of Tennessee granite, 
 aud one of the finest and costliest buildings in the 
 U. States. The new custom-house, built in the point- 
 ed Gothic style, is also one of the most beautiful 
 buildings of the kind in thisco. The Exposition build- 
 ing completed in 1880, and capped by a magnificent 
 dome, is admirably arranged and commodious. The 
 State penitentiary buildings occupy three sides of a 
 hollow square enclosed by a massive stone wall, 
 within which arc numerous workshops. The Her- 
 mitage, the celebrated residence of Andrew Jack- 
 son, is 12 m. E. of Nashville. The city has several 
 lines of street railway. It is lighted with gas, and is 
 supplied with water by expensive works, which 
 raise it from the river to four reservoirs. The princi- 
 pal charitable and reformatory institutions are the 
 state institution for the blind, several hospitals, two 
 orphan asylums near the city, the city workhouse, 
 aud a house of industry for females. About 6 ui.

 and Nashville universities. The Montgomery Bell 
 academy, 2 seminaries, the State normal school, 
 Tennessee school for the blind, Saint Cecilia Aca- 
 demy, two medical and two dental colleges and a 
 College of Pharmacy. For the colored people there 
 are the Central Tennessee College, the Baptist nor- 
 mal and Theological Institute and a medical college 
 — the only one of the kind in the world. Nashville is 
 the chief commercial centre and wholesale market 
 S. of the Ohio R. It requires an average of $5,000,- 
 000 to handle the cotton crop which comes into it. 
 The tobacco trade is also of great magnitude. The

 Nebras'ka, a W. State, bounded N. by Dako- 
 ta, E. by Iowa and Missouri, S. by Kansas and Colo- 
 rado, and W. by Colorado and Wyoming. It is situa- 
 ted between lat. 40° and 43° N., and Ion. 95°21' and 104° 
 W. The extreme length from E. to W. is 412 m., and 
 the breadth from N. to S. 208 m.; area, 76,855 sq. m. 
 The surface of Neb. is exceedingly varied. There are 
 indeed no elevations that can be dignified with the 
 name of mountains, but in the N. and W. parts of the 
 State there are lofty hills of very varied character. 
 Generally the ascent is gentle, though occasionally it 
 is precipitous. In the Eastern States, the body of hills 
 is mainly made up of massive rocks ; here it is partly 
 composed of loosely compacted drift materials. 
 Along the Niobrara and White Rs., extending into 
 Dakota, are " sand-hills," exhibiting only a scanty 
 vegetation, and very difficult to traverse on account 
 of the loose sand. Abt. 20,000 sq. m. of this forma- 
 tion are unfit for cultivation and almost destitute of 
 timber. In fact, Neb. emerged so recently, geologi- 
 cally, from the waters of the loess age, that it still 
 exhibits, as a whole, many of the phenomena of a 
 recently drained lake bed. The gently rolling lands 
 of three-fourths of the State appear very much like 
 the suddenly petrified waves and billows of the 
 ocean. Sometimes extensive stretches of surface are 
 met with that appear to be level, but closer observa- 
 tion shows even these to be gently undulating. From 
 these last mentioned forms to the few isolated sec- 
 tions of limited extent, broken by canons with pre- 
 
NEB 
 
 690 
 
 NEB 
 
 cipitous sides, the transition is gradual. Every shade 
 of form and surface connects the two varieties of 
 reliefs. The bottom lands are the most conspicuous 
 modifying feature of the landscape of the State. In 
 crossing the State at right angles to the direction of 
 the streams, the bottom lands are met. with every 
 few miles. They are huge, generally shallow, troughs, 
 In breadth proportionate commonly to the size of the 
 streams. They range in width from a quarter of a 
 mile on the smaller streams to 33 m. on the Platte 
 and the Missouri. They are frequently terraced, and 
 the terraces, like broad steps, gradually lead to the 
 bordering bluffs, which, in turn, are very varied in 
 height and form. The bluffs are steepest and rough- 
 est on the Missouri, especially towards the N. line of 
 the State. On the middle Niobrara they frequently 
 assume the exceptional character of borders to deep 
 canons. Even on the Missouri there are very few 
 that cannot be successfully cultivated.— Minerals 
 have not yet been found to any considerable extent, 
 and the scarcity of coal renders more valuable the 
 extensive beds' of peat found in some parts of the 
 State. The salt basins of Neb. are rich and extensive. 
 The principal one is located in Lancaster co., sur- 
 roundiug the city of Lincoln, and embracing an area 
 of 12 by 25 m. The brine from the springs yields 29 
 per cent, by weight of good salt. In the same co. 
 there are inexhaustible quarries of sandstone, which 
 is very soft when quarried, but hardens by exposure 
 to the air. Blue limestone is found near the head 
 waters of Salt Creek, and near Lincoln ; also a 
 beautiful gray magnesian limestone, as susceptible 
 of fine polish as Italian marble. Fossil remains of 
 great interest to geologists have been discovered in 
 great quantities. Indian hieroglyphics which ante- 
 date the traditions of all living tribes are cut deep 
 in the bluffs along the Missouri R. in places now in- 
 accessible. — Geologists are of the opinion that the 
 prairies have grown no trees during the present geo- 
 logical era, but many fossils remains of tropical and 
 sub-tropical vegetation are found in the tertiary for- 
 mation. Since the prairie flies ceased many young 
 trees have been planted, which grow with great rapidi- 
 ty. One farmer set out 120,000 trees in a single year. A 
 Cottonwood, 7 years old, measured 2 ft. 6 inches in 
 circumference ; a maple, 10 years old, 2 ft. 8 inches ; 
 a locust of the same age, ~ ft. " The common trees 
 can be raised from the seed, as well as corn or beans," 
 says Prof. Haydeu's Report. Peach trees bear in 3 
 years and apple trees in 4 or 5 years. The indigenous 
 trees, growing chiefly along the water courses, are 
 the Cottonwood, soft maple, elm, butternut, bass- 
 wood, oak, black walnut, honey locust and willow. 
 Timber is most abundant in the S.E. counties. The 
 number of forest and fruit trees planted during the 
 census year 1880 was : 57,769,894 forest trees, 2,2f 9,- 
 627 fruit trees and 467,636 vines. — The Missouri R. 
 forms the whole of the E. boundary of Neb. The 
 Platte, or Nebraska R., from which the State re- 
 ceived its name, is a broad and shallow stream, ford- 
 able almost everywhere at low water. Its principal 
 tributaries are the Coldwater, Loup Fork, and Elk- 
 horn. The S. part of the State is drained by the 
 various branches of the Kansas R., of which the 
 largest are the Republican Fork, Little Blue and Big 
 Blue Rs. The N. cos. are drained by the Niobrara, a 
 rapid stream 400 m. long, which forms a part of the 
 N. boundary and empties into the Missouri. Along 
 the streams are wide fertile bottom lands with a rank 
 vegetation. The soil has a siliceous marl, like the 
 " loess " along the Rhine. Sometimes the vegetable 
 humus extends to a depth of from 10 to 20 ft. From 
 2 to 4 tons of grass or 52 bushels of wheat to the 
 acre is not an uncommon yield. A height of 6 ft. is 
 attained by the " blue joint" grass. The upland soil 
 is 18 or 20 inches thick. It is claimed that there is 
 hardly a foot of land in E. Neb. which is not suscepti- 
 
 ble of cultivation. The winters are not very long ; 
 open weather continues until the end of Nov. and 
 spring weather begins with March. Corn is planted 
 in April. High winds sweep over the plains, and the 
 storms are sometimes of terrible severity. The cli- 
 mate is dry and exhilarating ; the mean temperature 
 in winter is abt. 22°, and in summer abt. 70°. The heat 
 of the summer is tempered by the prairie winds, and 
 the nights are generally cool. According to the obser- 
 vations made by the U. States signal service at Oma- 
 ha (lat. 41° 16', Ion. 96°), the annual mean as indicated 
 by the barometer was 29.9 inches: thermometei,48.1°; 
 total fall of rain, including snow, 34.8 inches ; pre- 
 vailing wind, S.E. The greatest amount of rain falls 
 in May and June. — The principal agricultural prod, 
 for the year 1880, according to the census of that year, 
 were as follows: barley, 1,744,686 bush.; corn, 65,- 
 450,135 ; oats, 6,555,875 ; rye, 424,348; wheat, 13,847,- 
 007 ; potatoes, 1,086,750 ; hay, 564,564 tons. Neb. 
 had of improved lands, 3,498,906 acres, and unim- 
 proved lands (not public), 9,768,375 acres. There J3 
 no part of the U. States better adapted for stock rais- 
 ing than the prairies of Neb. Throughout the State 
 there are hundreds of small herds of from 20 to 100, 
 and on the plains in the extreme western part of the 
 State there are large herds numbering hundreds and 
 thousands that rarely taste other food than the wild 
 grasses and hay made from them from the begiuing 
 to the end of the year. These rich grasses cost the 
 herdsman not a farthing They have fed the buffalo, 
 deer and antelope for centuries, and are to-day the 
 richest legacy these far-reaching prairies offerto man. 
 The gulches and canons furnish shelter for cattle and 
 sheep, and two months of spring grazing fits them 
 for the prime markets. The live stock in 1880 con- 
 sisted of 198,381 horses, 675,244 cattle, 20,032 mules, 
 194,959 sheep, and 767,702 hogs. — In 1880, there were 
 in Neb. 1,403 manuf. establishments, employing 4,- 
 793 hands ; capital invested, $4,881,150 ; wages paid 
 during the year, $1,742,311 ; value of materials, $8,- 
 208,478 ; value of products, $12,627,335. Manuf. in- 
 dustries and trade are largely progressing since 1880. 
 — Neb. had in 1882, 2,310 m. of railroad in operation. 
 The school lands occupy 2,700,000 acres, which, at 
 the estimated value of $7 per acre, would afford a 
 school fund of $18,000,000. These lands are sold to a 
 limited extent only, the larger proportion being 
 leased on 20 years' time at 6 per cent, interest on the 
 appraised value. Although the State is yet so young, 
 quite a handsome income is being derived from this 
 source, and in the years to come it will be an immens j 
 source of revenue to to the common schools of the 
 State. Aside from these common schools the State 
 supports a well-equipped university at Lincoln, aDor 
 mal school for the instruction of teachers, an insti- 
 tute for the blind at Nebraska City, an institution 
 for deaf and dumb at Omaha, and a State reform 
 school at Kearney (organized in 1882). The revenue 
 applied to common school purposes for the year 1880 
 amounted to $1,108,617.23. In the year 1880 there 
 were organized in the State 3,132 school districts to 
 meet the needs of 142,348 children within the school 
 age, out of which 92,549 are enrolled. The teachers 
 employed numbered 4,100, and the amount paid for 
 salaries was $549,200.41, the average salary per month 
 for males being $36.12 and females $31.92. The 
 school houses numbered 2,701, and the value of 
 school property, including 6ites, buildings and furni- 
 ture, $2,064,768.— The State is divided into 70 cos., 
 viz.: Adams, Antelope, Boone, Buffalo, Burt, Butler, 
 Cass, Cedar, Chase, Cheyenne, Clay, Colfax, Cum- 
 ing, Custer, Dakota, Dawson, Dixon, Dodge, Doug-

 Nevada, a W. State, bounded N. by Oregon and 
 Idaho, E. by Utah and Arizona, S.W. and'W. by 
 California. It is situated between lat. 35° and 42° N. 
 and Ion. 114° and 120° W. The portion above the 39th 
 parallel is a rectangular parallelogram and the por- 
 tion below a right-angled triangle, with one angle cut 
 away by the Colorado R., which constitutes the ex- 
 treme S.E. boundary. The length of the State from 
 N. to S. is 485 m. and its greatest breadth from E. to 
 W. 320 m.;area, 110,700 'sq. m. Most of Nevada be- 
 longs to the "Great Basin," a table-land elevated 
 4,500 feet above the sea. This is traversed with great 
 uniformity by nearly parallel mountain ranges rising 
 from 1,000 to 8,000ft. higher.and runningalmost with- 
 out exception, in a direction N. andS. Long narrow 
 valleys lie between them, sometimes redeemed from 
 sterility by streams of water, but often barren and 
 verdureless. The Sierra Nevada, from 7,000 to 13,000 
 feet in height, extends along the W. boundary. 
 Marked signs of volcanic agency are shown 
 in the formation of the mountains, rocks, minerals 
 and lakes. The largest and only navigable river is 
 the Colorado. Humboldt R. rises in the mountains 
 and empties into a lake of the same name after a 
 course of 300 m. Walker R. and Carson R. rise in the 
 Sierras and flow into lakes which have no visible out- 
 let. Lake Tahoe, lying partly in California, is 21 m. 
 long, 10 m. wide and 1,500 feet deep. Although it is 
 elevated 6,000 feet above the sea, the water never 
 freezes, and has a mean temperature of 57° for the 
 year. Among the remarkable physical features of 
 Nevada are its hot springs, some of which are 100 
 feet in diameter, 150 feet deep and have a tempera- 
 ture of 200 degrees. The Steamboat springs, in 
 Washoe co., register a temperature of 204 degrees. 
 Chemical analysis shows that the mineral ingredients 
 of these waters are the chlorides of magnesium and 
 sodium, lime, sulphur and iron. A heavy growth of 
 timber, principally pine, fir and spruce, covers 
 the eastern slopes of the Sierra Nevada, many at-

 taining enormous size. The timber in the interior 
 is mainly cottonwood, birch, dwarf cedar, nut pine, 
 and wood of softer texture. — The climate is in general 
 comparatively mild, little snow falling except on the 
 mountains. In the N. and interior the average sum- 
 mer temperature at noon is 90", falling to 70° at night. 
 In the severest weather in winter the thermometer 
 ranges f rom 0° to — 15° or — 20°. In the S.E. the 
 winters are milder, frosts being rare in the valleys, 
 and the summers hotter ; the thermometer in May 
 and June ranges from 95° to 115°. Little rain falls, 
 artificial irritation being necessary to agriculture. 
 — The soil produces spontaneously in the valleys 
 away from springs or streams, sage brash, grease- 
 wood and bunch grass, the latter being scarce in 
 such localities. There are many alkaline flats and 
 extensive sand plains where nothing grows. The 
 mountains are more or less covered with soil and 
 their elevation makes of them the water reservoirs 
 of the country. In consequence of this the timber is 
 found there, as well as the best grazing lands in the 
 State, except the irrigated valleys.The snow melting in 
 the mountains creates numerous springs lower down 
 and small creeks or streams, which flow into basins 
 or out to the valleys, where they are usually lost in 
 the soil or sand. Along these water courses the wild 
 grass sometimes grows and carpets the soil, and the 
 high price of hay (about $20 per ton), renders these 
 desirable localities for ranches or farms. In 1830 but 
 81,106 acres were reported as under cultivation, a 
 trifle over one acre in a thousand of the total area. 
 Fruit is scarce. The climate is not favorable for its 
 maturity. The market for all products grown upon 
 the soil'is found inside the State at high and prof- 
 itable rates, the high railroad freights serving the 
 purpose of a kind of protective tariff for the farmers. 
 The grazing area of the State, not including agricul- 
 tural land, is laid down by the surveyor general as 
 being over 5,000,000 acres, but its capacity is not 
 equal to one-fifth of that amount in the E. States, 
 and on account of being overstocked is rapidly de- 
 teriorating. A large number of cattle are yearly trans- 
 ported by railroad from this State to California in 
 search of a market. In 1880 the number shipped from 
 stations in Humboldt co. alone, was valued at $1,500,- 
 000. The kinds of stock grown for a market outside 
 of Nev. are cattle and sheep, the latter for their wool; 
 all other kinds are raised for the home demand. — 
 The mineral products in their relative order of val- 
 ues, are gold, silver,copper,iron, lead, sulphur, borax, 
 salt, soda. The first discovery of argentiferous ore 
 was made on the Comstock lode in 1859, from which 
 more than $100,000,000 have been taken, the great- 
 est annual yield being $16,000,000. In 1868 bullion 
 worth $10,000,000 was mined. This has been the most 
 valuable silver bearing lode ever discovered in the 
 world, exceeding in wealth the mines of Peru and 
 Mexico. After being for years a source of immense in- 
 come to its owners, the Comstock yields at present 
 principally low grade ores, and is operated at a loss. 
 Silver bearing lodes are worked in Humboldt, Esmer- 
 alda, Lander, Nye and Lincoln cos., and in Lincoln 
 co. is found gold and copper, as in other parts of 
 the State. The mining interests of Nev. outside of 
 the Comstock have of late centered in the White R. 
 district, having an area of abt. 12 sq. m. The White 
 Pine mines are 125 m. E. by S. of Elk's station on 
 the Pacific RR. For the year 1881 the yield of the 
 mines, which in 1874 reached $35, 500,000, was reduced 
 to $9,310,000 (gold, $2,250,000 ; silver, $7,060,000).— 
 The manuf. interests are not progressing. According 
 to the U. States census of 1880 Nev. had 184 manu- 
 facturing establishments (against330 in 1870) employ- 
 ing 576 hands ; capital invested, $1,323,300 ($5,127, 
 790 in 1870); wages paid during the year, $461,807; 
 value of material, $1,019,794; value of products, $2,- 
 179,626 ($15,870,539 in 1870). The State had in 1882, 
 
 890 m. of railroad in operation. — The educational 
 facilities are as complete and far advanced as could 
 be expected with all the unfavorable circumstances 
 naturally attendant upon the establishment of a prac- 
 tical public school system in a State which covers so 
 extensive an area, has few facilities for travel, and 
 is sparsely settled. — Nev. is divided into 15 cos., viz.: 
 Churchill, Douglas, Elko, Esmeralda, Eureka, Hum- 
 boldt, Lander, Lincoln, Lyon, Nye, Ormsby, Ruop, 
 Storey, Washoe, White Pine. The principal towns 
 are Carson City (the cap.), Virginia City and Gold 
 Hill (united in 1881 into one government under the 
 administration of the commissioners of Storey co.), 
 Hamilton, Treasure, Elko, Pioche City,Reno, Dayton, 
 and Silver City. The legislative authority is vested 
 in a senate of 20 members elected for 4 years and an as- 
 sembly of 40 members elected for 2 years. Biennial ses- 
 sion are held. The governor (salary $6,000), and 
 other executive officers are chosen for 4 years. The 
 supreme court council of 3 judges (salary $7,000 each), 
 elected for 6years. Nev. sends one representative to 
 congress and has 3 electoral votes.The financial condi- 
 tion of Nev.has of late manifested a marked downward 
 tendency, the various sources of her revenue having 
 materially decreased in amount and number. In 1881 
 the receipts into the Treasury aggregated $923,159; 
 expenditures, $1,276,050. The bondedState debt was 
 $600,000. Valuation of taxable property, $26,598,658. 
 — Nev. was ceded by Mexico to the U. States in 1848. 
 A Territorial government was organized in 1861, and on 
 Oct. 31st., 1864, Nev. was admitted into the Union as 
 the 36th State. Pop. in 1860, 6,857 ; in 1870, 42,491 ; 
 in 1880, 62,266 (of whom 42,019 male; and 20,267 fe- 
 male; 36,613 natives and 25,653 foreign 53,556 whiles 
 488 colored, 14 Chinese, and 63 taxed Indians). The 
 number of tribal Indians in 1882, according to the 
 report of the U.S. com. of Indian affairs,as 7,831. 
 
 Nevada, Ark., a S.W. co., bounded N. by Little 
 Missouri R. and drained by Cypress bayou, and Tei-

 nese). The surface is generally mountainous, especial- 
 ly toward the east, which is traversed by the Sierra Ne- 
 vada range. One half of the area is estimated to he 
 occupied by mineral lands. Gold mining is the prin- 
 cipal industry, and agriculture receives little atten- 
 tion, though there is much arable land, and timber 
 is abundant. The co. contains several of the richest 
 and most productive quartz lodes in the State, and 
 the placer diggings are not surpassed by any other.

 9 m. W. of the city of New York. It stands on' a fer- 
 tile plain, with a rising ground on the W. Newark 
 has ample means of communication with New York, 
 Philadelphia, and the surrounding country, trains 
 running every few minutes through the day to New 
 York, with which it is connected by 4 different rail- 
 roads. This is the most populous and flourishing 
 place in the State of New Jersey. The city is divided 
 
NEW

 NEW 
 
 into 15 wards ; it is for the most part regularly laid 
 out, with broad and straight streets, generally cross- 
 ing each other at right angles. Many of the streets 
 are bordered by lofty and beautiful shade trees, 
 ■which give an air of elegance. The main street, called 
 Broad street, is very spacious and handsome, 132 ft. 
 wide and 2J m. long, shaded with majestic elms, 
 adorned with numerous tasteful edifices, and skirting 
 in its course Washington, Military, and South parks, 
 which are embowered with lofty elms. There are 
 abt. 140 m. of improved streets, of which nearly 100 
 m. are graded, and more than 30 in. paved. The city 
 is supplied with water collected from a large num- 
 ber of springs on the neighboring high grounds into 
 a reservoir, and thence distributed by pipes. It has 
 a system of sewerage, abt. 30 in. of sewers having 
 been completed. There are four cemeteries within the 
 limits of the city : Woodland, Fainnount, Mt. Pleas- 
 ant, and the Catholic cemetery. Mt. Pleasant, the 
 oldest, occupies 40 acres of ground on the Passaic 
 R., and is elegantly laid out in winding avenues 
 thickly shaded by ornamental trees and flowering 
 shrubbery. Besides the churches, the most note- 
 worthy buildings are the custom house, city hall, and 
 several of the banks and insurance buildings. The 
 city has 104 churches, 9 horse railways, 11 banks of 
 deposit, 5 savings banks, 3 trust companies, 5 daily 
 and wkly and 4 monthly papers, 15 fire insurance 
 companies. 4 life insurance companies, a paid fire de- 
 partment, and an electric fire alarm telegraph. Its 
 municipal government consists of a mayor, common 
 council (one-half of which are elected annually), an 
 educational board, water and tax commissioners, 
 and au excise board. There are a number of hand- 
 some and costly public buildings. Newark is very 
 extensively engaged in manufactures, a great part 
 of the products of which are sent to distant markets. 
 Although there are no peculiar natural facilities here 
 for this kind of industry, this want has been abundant- 
 ly supplied by steam power and other artificial agents, 
 under the direction of human skill and enterprise. 
 About the year 1676, measures were taken to invite 
 mechanics to this place. The first shoemaker ap- 
 pears to have been induced to come into the settle- 
 ment from Elizabethtowu, having been " formerly 
 admitted a member of the community, on condition 
 of his supplying it with shoes." The manufacture of 
 shoes, boots, sadlery, harness, and the various fab- 
 rics of leather, have constituted an extensive branch 
 of the business of Newark in modern times. The tan- 
 neries here have been very extensive, the first of 
 which was established as long ago as 1698. Other 
 manufactures, in great variety and abundance, have 
 been produced, the most important of which are jew- 
 elry, celluloid goods, saddlery and harness materials, 
 felt and silk hats, carriages, varnish, ale and lager 
 beer, trunks and valises, chemicals, cotton thread, 
 clothing, agricultural implements, fertilizers, ma- 
 chinery, and sewing silk. The smelting and refiuing 
 of gold, silver, and lead ores is also a prominent in- 
 terest. The Newark Industrial Institute is an organ- 
 ization of mechanics and manufacturers, which has 
 for its object the encouragement and advancement 
 of manufactures and the mechanical arts. Newark 
 also has a board of trade. Its shipping interests are 
 quite extensive ; it has a line of docks over a mile in 
 length. The city has quite a number of charitable in- 
 stitutions; its bv stem of public schools is excellent, 
 embracing a high school, 12 grammar schools, 20 
 primary schools, 2 primary industrial schools, 7 
 evening schools, and a Saturday normal school. 
 The number of school buildings owned by the city 
 is 21. Newark academy, incorporated in 1795, is one 
 of the oldest institutions in the State. There are sev- 
 eral well attended Catholic schools. There are two 
 libraries, that of the Newark library association, con- 
 taining 20,000 volumes and that of the New Jersey 
 
 historical society, containing 6,000 volumes and 10,- 
 
 000 pamplets, besides manuscripts of great value and

 New Hampshire, one of the New England 
 States, bounded N. by Canada, E. by Maine and the 
 Atlantic Ocean, S. by Massachusetts and W. by Ver- 
 mont. It lies between lat. 42° 40' and 45° 18' N., and 
 Ion. 70° 40' and 72° 35' W. Length from N. to 8. abt. 
 180 m., extreme breadth 93 m.; area, 9,305 sq. m. 
 The shore of the 18 m. of sea-coast in the S.E. part, 
 is, in most places, a sandy beach, bordered with salt 
 marshes, penetrated by creeks and coves, furnishing 
 harbors for small craft, and affording but one harbor 
 for ships, which is that of Portsmouth, at the mouth 
 of Piseataqua R. For the distance of 20 or 80 m. back 
 from the sea, the country is level, occasionally diver- 
 sified with hills and valleys. Beyond this the hills in- 
 crease in number, and in many parts of the State rise 
 into lofty mountains, particularly in the N., where 
 are situated the White Mts., which are among the 
 highest in the U. States, E. of the Rocky Mts., and 
 others along the heights between Merrimack and Con- 
 necticut Rs. In different parts are some picturesque 
 lakes and fine water-falls, and the beauty and grand- 
 eur of the scenery presented by its mountains and 
 lakes has caused it to be denominated "the Switzer- 
 land of America." The principal mountain peaks are 
 Grand Monadnock, toward the S.W. part of the State; 
 Sunapee Mt., near Sunapee Lake ; Kearsarge Mt., be- 
 tween Sutton and Salisbury ; Carr's Mt. in Ellsworth ; 
 Moosehilloek in Benton, and Mount Washington, 
 the highest peak of the White Mts., has an average 
 elevation of 1,400 ft. above the sea. One-sixth of the 
 whole area is covered with water. Almost upon the 
 Canada line, elevated 2,551 ft. above sea level, and 
 surrounded by a dense forest of evergreens, is the 
 lake which Is the source of the Connecticut R. After 
 flowing through two other smaller ponds and receiv- 
 ing several little tributaries, the stream passes into 
 the Connecticut Lake, which is 4 m. long, 2J m. wide 
 and 1,619 ft. above the 6ea. Lake. Magalloway, the 
 source of the river of the same name, covers 320 acres 
 ~and is elevated 2,225 ft. Lake Umbagng (1,256 feet 
 high) extends over into Maine. Lake Winnipiseogee 
 is 25 m. long, 8J m. wide and contains 274 islands. A 
 little N.W. of this is Squam Lake, 5 m. in length and 
 4 in breadth. Other considerable bodies of water are 
 Sunapee and Ossipee Lakes. Perched 5,000 ft. above 
 the sea is the Lake of the Clouds, the source of the 
 Ammonoosuc R. The State is divided into five hydro- 
 
 graphic districts — viz., the Connecticut, Merrimack, 
 Piseataqua, Saco and Androscoggin. The Connecti- 
 cut basiu is 185 m. long, from 5 to 30 wide and covers 
 an area of 3,060 sq. m. in N.H. For 211 m., this river 
 constitutes the W. boundary of the State. Its princi- 
 pal tributaries are the Upper and Lower Ammonoo- 
 suc, Sugar, Cold and Ashuelot Rs., allot them origi- 
 nating on the W. side of the "Heights of Land." 
 The basin of the Merrimack is 98 m. long, from 15 
 to 60 m. wide and comprises 3,825 sq. m. The Pemi- 
 gewasset and the Winnipiseogee unite to form the 
 the Merrimack. The Piseataqua basin of 825 sq. m., 
 is 45 m. in length and from 10 to 20 m. in width. 
 This river is made up of the Cocheco and the. Sal- 
 mon Falls, which come together at Dover. The basin 
 of the Saco is 46 m. long by 18 wide, and contains 
 850 sq. in. The Androscoggin basin is 71 m. long, 
 from 10 to 30 m. wide, and covers an area of 825 sq. 
 m. All of the above streams are subject to 6uddeu 
 floods ; they are abundantly stocked with fish. Off 
 the coast are the Isles of Shoals, 8 in number, of 
 which 3 are under the jurisdiction of N.H., and 5 be- 
 long to Maine. Their total area is only abt. 600 acres. 
 A dense growth of trees originally extended over 
 most of the State. Clearing land was the first wo'k 
 of the early settlers. Coosco. is still covered withan 
 almost unbroken primeval forest. Two-thirds of 
 the Connecticut and one-third of the Piseataqua 
 basins are 6till in timber land. The hills and moun- 
 tains are covered with a growth of pine, oak, wal- 
 nut, cedar, hemlock, fir, beech, maple, balsam, pop- 
 lar, butternut, &c; white oak and chestnut flourish 
 on the hard, stony tracts, and spruce and hemlock 
 on the thin, cold soils. There is a very marked dif- 
 ference between the vegetation of the N. and S. 
 parts. More than 1,000 species of plants have been 
 noted. Forest trees grow on the White Mts. below 
 the line of 3,000 ft. and in sheltered localities up to 
 4,000 ft. Above that the plants common to Greenland 
 and Labrador are found. The bear, wolf, moose and 
 other wild animals are occasionally seen. — The cli- 
 mate is severe, being somewhat colder than that of 
 Maine, but more steady. In summer the heat some- 
 times rises to 100° and in winter the cold has been 
 known to freeze the mercury in the thermometer. In 
 the neighborhood of the White Mts., the winters are 
 excessively cold, and the peaks are covered more or 
 less with snow eight months in the year, from which 
 circumstance their name has been derived. The Mer- 
 rimack valley below Concord is the warmest pait if 
 the State ; and the abundant waterfalls here have 
 caused the growth of the manuf. towns of 
 Manchester, Nashua, Suncook, and Hooksett. All 
 parts of N.H. are exceedingly healthful, and cases 
 of remarkable longevity are very numerous. The cold 
 weather begins about the last of Oct., and continues 
 till May ; and from the latter part of Nov. till 
 the opening of spring the whole country is usually 
 covered with snow, and the rivers are frozen. — The 
 soil of N.H. is generally fertile, particularly on the 
 margins of the rivers, and especially on Connecticut 
 R., and the hiHshaveamoistand warm soil, particu- 
 larly adapted to grazing. Pork, beef, mutton, poul- 
 try, butter and cheese are annually exported. Apples, 
 pears, plums, and cherries are produced in abun- 
 dance. Sugar is extensively made from the hard ma- 
 ple tree. The principal prod, for the census vear 1880 
 were 1,401,820 bush, of corn, 158,200 of wheat, 891,- 
 840 of oats, 102,156 of buckwheat, 3,786,300 of pota- 
 toes, and 592,764 tons of hav, 1,263,711 lbs. of wool, 
 6,246,813 of butter, and 1,740,389 of maple sugar, 
 There were on farms 57,100 horses, 98,100 milch cows, 
 123,725 oxen and other cattle, 246,942 sheep, and 45,- 
 450 hogs. — The State surveys disclose the existence 
 of mineral deposits in various sections, but they have 
 not been developed to any great extent. A valuablb 
 bed of iron ore has been worked in Lisbon and re-

 duced at Franconia, and gold-bearing quartz, said to 
 assay from 818 to §25 per ton, is mined in the same 
 neighborhood. By far the most important and profit- 
 able article which the earth yields is granite. It 
 exists in inexhaustible quantities, is quarried and 
 dressed, notably in Concord and in many other 
 places, is of fine grain and ready cleavage, and adapt- 
 ed to the highest architectural purposes. Some of 
 the best buildings in the country are constructed 
 from it. It also serves some admirable purposes in 
 sculpture, its beautiful grey being preferable to 
 •marble. Under improved processes of manufacture 
 It takes a brilliant polish, and is widely used for mon- 
 uments and mural designs. Next in importance may 
 be named the Francestown soapstone, a valuable de- 
 posit entering extensively into the useful arts, which 
 is worked on a liberal scale. It is made ready for 
 market at Nashua, and from thence supplies the de- 
 mands at Boston and New York. Mica is another ar- 
 ticle of commercial value found in Grafton, Acworth 
 and Alexandria.— In 1880, according to the census of 
 that year, N.H. had 3,181 manuf. establishments, 
 employing 38,831 hands ; capital invested, 851,112,- 
 263 ; wages paid during the year, §14,814,793, value 
 of materials 843,552,462 ; value of products, $73,978,- 
 028. The leading industry is the making of textile 
 fabrics, among which were 36 cotton-mills, working 
 24,299 looms and 944,053 spindles, and employing 16,- 
 529 hands ; cotton consumed during the year 157,- 
 673 bales ; capital invested, 819,877,084 , wages paid, 
 84,290,960 : value of materials, 810,146,904 ; value of 
 products, 817,923,403. The nextlargest interest is the 
 paper manuf. The shipping and direct imports 
 of N.H. are given under Portsmouth, its only port of 
 entry. The greater portion of the foreign products 
 consumed in the State is entered in Boston. N.H. 
 had in 1882, 1,026 m. of railroad in operation. — A 
 compulsory education law has been in force since 
 1871. All children between the ages of 8 and 14 years 
 are required to attend school for at least 6 weeks in 
 every year. In 1882, the State was divided into 2,227 
 school districts ; value of school houses, 82,303,248 ; 
 pupils attending school, 33,069 ; teachers, 3,594; 
 total expenditures, $575,808. Town and cities may 
 do away with the district system and provide high 
 schools for more advanced culture. Many have so 
 done. There is a normal school at Plymouth support- 
 ed by the State. Teachers trained there are required 
 to pursue their calling within the State. Besides the 
 free schools, there are abt. 50 academies and semi- 
 naries, mostly incorporated, where tuition is paid. 
 Four or more of these are designed for female 
 student s, and many of them are established on liberal 
 foundations. There is one college, Dartmouth, at 
 Hanover, chartered in 1754, being the fourth in point 
 of time established in New England. Connected with 
 it are other institutions which afford the student an 
 opportunity to complete the circle of a university 
 education. These are the Chandler scientific depart- 
 ment, including French and German ; the agricul- 
 tural school, established from the congressional 
 land grant ; the Thayer school of civil engineering, 
 and the medical department. Within a little more 
 than the last decade a million of dollars has been 
 added by gift or bequest to its funds. The State peni- 
 tentiary and the N.H. asylum for the insane are at 
 Concord. A reform school for boys and girls has 
 been in successful operation at Manchester since 
 1855, and receives abt. 150 pupils annually. Theblind 
 are supported at the Perkins institute in Boston, and 
 the deaf and dumb at the American asylum at Hart- 
 ford. — The legislature, styled the general court, con- 
 sists of a senate of 12 members, and a house of repre- 
 sentatives of a varying number of members. The 
 governor is advised in his executive duties by a 
 council of 5 members. The members of the legisla- 
 ture, governor and councillors are elected biennially 
 
 on the 2d Thursday in Nov. The judicial power is 
 vested in a superior court of judicature consisting of 
 3 justices, a circuit court, probate and police courts, 
 and justice of the peace. N.H. sends Z representa- 
 tives to congress and has 4 electoral votes. In 1881, 
 the aggregate value of taxable prop, was $168,964,- 
 903. The State debt amounted to 83,372,770. The re- 
 ceipts into the treasury aggregated $503,114 ; expen- 
 ditures, 8461,101.— The Stale is divided into 10 cos., 
 viz.: Belknap, Carroll, Cheshire, Coos, Grafton, Hills- 
 borough, Merrimack, Korkiugbam, Strafford, and 
 Sullivan. The cities and principal towns are : Clare- 
 mont, Concord (the cap.), Dover, Exeter, Farming- 
 ton, Franklin, Gilford, Hanover, Haverhill, Keene, 
 Laconia, Lancaster, Lebanon, Littleton, Manchester, 
 Milford, Nashua, Newport, Pembroke, Peterbor- 
 ough, Portsmouth, Rochester, Somersworth, Weare, 
 and Winchester. — A settlement was begun near the 
 mouth of the Piscataqua in 1623, by a party of Eng- 
 lishmen, who came to fish and to trade. Dover was 
 settled the same year. From 1680 to 1775, the 
 seat of government was at Portsmouth. N. H. 
 bore a conspicuous and honorable part in the strug- 
 gle for independence. On June 21st, 1788, the consti- 
 tution of the U. States was ratified, and in 1792, the 
 State constitution was adopted. Pop. in 1790, 141,-

 640 sq. m. The surface is generally uueven, moun- 
 tainous in the middle and toward the E., and the soil 
 Is moderately fertile. On the coast there are several 
 excellent harbors. The chief prod, iu 1880 were 13,- 
 549 bush, of buckwheat, 232,379 of corn, 76,164 of 
 oats, 78,256 of rye, 215,195 lbs. of tobacco; potatoes 
 and butter, are largely produced. The co. has very 
 extensive manuf. interests. Cap., New Haven. Val. 
 of taxable prop. abt. .$200,000,000. Pop. 156,526 (of 
 whom 87,308 for., and 3,562 colored). 
 — the largest city of the State, port of entry, and cap. 
 of the above co., at the head of a harbor or bay which 
 sets up 4 m. from Long Island Sound, and on the B. 
 &N.Y.A.L., theN.H.&N., the N.Y..N.H.&H., the 
 N.H.&D., and the Shore Line RRs. It is situated on 
 a large and level plain, surrounded by hills and 
 mountains, except at the S. in the direction of the 
 harbor. The harbor is formed by the confluence of 
 three rivers, Quinnipiac and Mill R. on the E., and 
 West R. on the W. The most striking objects which 
 arrest the attention in approaching the city from the 
 S. are the East and West Rocks, two reddish, bold, 
 perpendicular precipices of rude, naked trap rock, 
 the former 370, and the latter 400 ft. in height. The 
 streets are well paved, drained, and lighted with gas. 
 The number of magnificent elms with which the 
 principal streets and squares are planted has caused 
 New Haven to be called the City of Elms. Chapel 
 street, the principal thoroughfare, extends in a 
 W.N.W. direction from end to end of the city. The 
 principal public buildings are the custom house and 
 post-office, the State house, the city hall, and the 
 court-house. New Haven is the seat of Yale college, one 
 of the oldest and most important educational institu- 
 tions in America. It was founded in 1700, and in 1881 
 had 106 instructors and 1,037 students. Besides its 
 academic department, the college has a law school, 
 a medical school, a scientific school, a theological 
 school, and a school of the fine arts. The grounds in- 
 clude 9 acres, and contain many buildings. The most 
 noteworthy are the Gothic library, with 90,000 vol- 
 umes ; the elaborate art building, containing a fine 
 collection of paintings, statuary, and casts, and a 
 number of studios; the Alumni hall, used for the 
 annual examinations and graduates' meetings ; the 
 new dormitories, Durfee hall, and Farnam hall, with 
 the elegant Battell chapel ; the two handsome build- 
 ings of the divinity school, with the dainty little Mar- 
 quand chapel between ; the Sheffield hall, and North 
 Sheffield hall, containing the laboratories and collec- 
 tions of the Sheffield scientific school, the Peabody 
 museum, in which are the collections of the univer- 
 sity in geology, mineralogy, and the natural sciences, 
 
 including the famous collection of Prof. Marsh ; and 
 the gymnasium, said to lie the most complete in the 
 country. — The harbor of New Haven is protected 
 from winds, but is rather shallow. To remedy its de- 
 fects, two wharfs have been constructed, 3,500 and 
 1,500 ft. long, and there are other landings for steam- 
 boats. There is daily communication with New York 
 by steamboats. The port has a large coasting trade, 
 and the commercial foreign commerce is also con- 
 siderable, particularly with the West Indies, but it is 
 not fully exhibited by the U. States commercial re- 
 ports, most of the business of New Haven merchants 
 being done through New York. The direct exports 
 for the year 1882 were valued at $598,487; imports 
 §956,055 ; entrances in the foreign trade, 86 of 19,628 
 tons; clearances, 42, of 7,545 tons. In 1882 there were, 
 belonging to the port, 139 sailing vessels of 7,969 
 tons, 36 steam vessels of 15,912 tons, and 10 barges of 
 2,033 tons. The manuf. are very extensive, includ- 
 ing machinery, hardware, locks, clocks, fire-arms, 
 carriages, pianos, jewelry, India rubber goods, &c. 
 The city has abt. 55 churches, aud 25 public schools. 
 The hopkins grammar school is chiefly designed for 
 preparing boys for Yale college. There are also a 
 collegiate institute, and numerous private schools. 
 New Haven has 7 nat. and 3 State banks, 6 daily, 12 
 weekly and 12 monthly papers and periodicals are 
 published here. The principal theatres are the grand 
 opera house (2,000 seats), Loomis' (1,000 seats), New 
 Haven opera house (1,000 seats), Carl's opera house, 
 (2,500 seats), and the Atheneum (600 seats). The city 
 is divided into 10 wards. It is governed by a mayor. 
 20 aldermen and 30 councilmen, elected for 1 year! 
 The police force consists of abt. 100 men, and there 
 is an efficient fire department. The New Haven bury- 
 ing ground, containing 18 acres at the N.W. of the 
 city, is beautifully laid out. The European country, 
 on West R., is large and tastefully adorned, and near 
 it is a Catholic burying ground. The village of Fair 
 Haven, 2 m. E. of the city hall, Is within the limits 
 of the city, and is situated on both sides of the 
 Quinnipiac. Its leading business is the oyster trade, 
 large quantities being brought here from various 
 places, and laid dowu in beds, giving employment to 
 quite a number of vessels. The city is divided 
 into 10 wards, and is governed by a mayor and a 
 board of aldermen of 2, and a council of 3 
 members for each ward. There are efficient fire 
 and police departments. The streets are well paved, 
 drained, and lighted with gas. New Haven was the 
 principal settlement in the colonv, originally inde- 
 pendent, which was founded by Theophilas Eaton, 
 and his associates, in 1638. The independence of this 
 colony continued until the charter of Connecticut, 
 procured from Charles II., in 1662, included the New 
 Haven colonists under the same jurisdiction. Under 
 this charter Hartford and New Haven were made 
 joint capitals, the legislature meeting alternately 
 at each place, until in 1873, by an amendment 
 of the constitution, Hartford was made the sole 
 seat of government. Pop. in 1810, 5,772 ; in 1840.

 New Jersey, one of the Middle Atlantic States, 
 bounded N. by New York, E. by New York and the 
 Atlantic Ocean, S. by the Atlantic Ocean and Dela- 
 ware Bav, and W. by the Delaware Bay and River, 
 separating it from the States of Delaware and Pennsyl- 
 vania. It lies between lat. 3S° 56' and 41° 21' N..lon. 73' 
 54' and 75° 33' W. The extreme length from Cape May 
 to the N. angle, is 1678 m., and the greatest breadth 
 59 m. At the narrowest point, between Bordentown and 
 South Amboy, the State is abt. 32 m. in width : area, 
 7,815 m. (or 7,455 exclusive of water surface). N.J. 
 has a direct coast line of 320 m. Its S. portion is al- 
 most entirely alluvial. A strip of marsh girts the sea- 
 shore, with broad tracts of salt meadow. Next to this is 
 an immense sandy plain. seldom rising to a height of 60 
 feet above the sea level, until it reaches the Never- 
 sink or Nevisink Highlands opposite Sandy Hook, 
 which have an elevation of 375 feet. Above Trenton 
 the country is more rolling and based upon the old 
 red sandstone formation. The N.W. section is rugged 
 and mountainous. A range of hills, beginning at 
 Bergen Point, skirts the Hudson R. as the Palisades 
 and passes over into New York. Twenty miles W. of 
 the Palisades there is another nearly .parallel range 
 
 i

 of hills. Along the N.W. boundary are the Blue Mts., 
 through which the Delaware R. breaks at the Water 
 Gap. the sides of which are 1,600 feet high. At High 
 Point, near the New York line, is the most elevated 
 laud in the State, having a height of 1,800 feet. N.J. 
 as it is seen, is characterized topographically by three 
 well marked di visions. Its N. part is mountainous, its 
 middle is rolling, and its S. part fsuniform in surface. 
 These features of its surface have given character to 
 the State, and directed its development and industries. 
 The middle division early attracted farmers to its 
 soil, and it has always been well farmed. Its rolling 
 surface, and its streams of water have furnished 
 water power, so that it has become the seat of mixed 
 industries, and the development of agricultural, me- 
 chanical and manuf. industries have gone on together 
 greatly to the benefit of each. The N. part of the 
 State includes between its mountain ranges many 
 valleys, the soil of which is very fertile, and their 
 lands are in a high state of cultivation. The iron 
 mining manuf. industries are large, and these various 
 pursuits engage the attention of a large population. 
 The S. part of the State is low, aud its surface is 
 gently rolling. The soil is generally light, and sandy, 
 but susceptible of improvement, and responds quickly 
 to the beneficial actiou of fertilizers. There are more 
 than half a million acres of tillable land still covered 
 by wood. Some of the more sandy belts are too poor 
 for profitable farming. They are covered by a light 
 growth of Jersey pine. The soils of the more S. cos. 
 are especially adapted to market gardening. — The 
 Hudson R., runs for 28 m. along the E. border, re- 
 ceiving scarcely a tributary from N.J. on account of 
 the Palisades, and the Delaware R. constitutes the 
 whole of the W. boundary. The three principal rivers 
 within the State are the Hackensack, navigable for 
 15 m. which joins the Passaic at the head of Newark 
 Bay ; the Passaic, which has a fall of 72 feet at Pat- 
 erson ; and the Raritan, emptying into the bay of the 
 same name, which is navigable to New Brunswick, 
 17 m. There are several lakes in the N. part, of which 
 the best known is Greenwood Lake, on the N.Y. 
 boundary, lb" m. in circumference. Newark Bay is 
 15 m. long and 2 m. broad. Staten Island Sound sepa- 
 rates Staten Island from the main land. From Sandy 
 Hook to Cape May is a long line of sandy beaches, 
 interruped by salt water marshes and numerous inlets 
 and bays. Barnegat Bay, 40 in. long, and Great and 
 Little Egg Harbors afford a safe anchorage for small 
 vessels, but there are no good harbors. A large number 
 of su m m er resorts has sprung up al ong the con st. From 
 Sandy Hook to Cape May are Port Monmouth, High- 
 lands, Sea Brisrht, Island Heights, Long Branch, 
 Deal Beach, Asbury Park, Ocean Grove, Ocean 
 Beach, Spring Lake, Sea Girt, Squan, Point Pleasant, 
 Squan Beach, Lavallette City, Seaside Park, Island 
 Beach, Long Beach, Beach Haven, Brigantine Beach, 
 Atlantic City, Absecom Beach, Peck's Beach, Learn- 
 ing's Beach,' Five-Mile Beach, Seaville, Ocean View, 
 and Cape May. The largest of these seaside resorts 
 are Long Branch, Asbury Park, Atlantic City and 
 Cape May. — The sandy plains of the south were 
 originally covered with a growth of pine and shrub 
 oak. In the hilly district the principal trees are the 
 oak, walnut, beech, birch, ash, elm, sugar-maple, 
 pine, cedar, hemlock, etc. — The climate varies much 
 in different parts of the State. In the N. where the 
 country is more elevated, it is much colder than to- 
 ward the south, where the influence of the ocean and 
 a low situation is felt. The annual mean temperature 
 of the S. end of the State is between 53° and 54° 
 that of the N. end from 48° to 50°. The annual rain- 
 fall is about 44 inches. Fevers and ague prevail in 
 the neighborhood of the marshes, but upon the sea- 
 shore and in the hilly regions the climate is remark- 
 ably healthy. — The staple products of agriculture 
 vary somewhat in the several natural divisions of the 
 
 State. In the rich limestone valleys, as also on the 
 cultivated hills of the N. part, and on the rolling red 
 sandstone plain in the central portion of the State, 
 Indian corn, wheat, rye, oats, and hay are the crops, 
 which are grown largely and with profit. The dairy 
 products are large in Sussex eo. and elsewhere in the 
 vicinity of large towns and near railway lines. On the 
 marl belt of the more S. part of the State the same 
 staple crops are produced, together with a very large 
 proportion of Irish potatoes, and in some localities 
 sweet potatoes also. Vegetables of all kinds and sma 1 
 fruits are raised extensively near the towns and large 
 cities. Orchard fruits are cultivated in all parts of 
 the State, and are noted for their excellence. The 
 attention of agriculturists is turning more and more 
 to market gardening, as the profits'are large on suit- 
 able soils and where proper skill is employed. The 
 Bureau of Labor and Statistics (report of 1880) re- 
 commends the encouragement of silk culture by the 
 State. It appears that N.J. already manufactures 
 816,000,000 of the $30,000,000 produced in the U. 
 States, and consumes more than 60 per cent, of the 
 raw silk imported into the U. States. — The State is 
 rich in mineral deposits. In the highlands of the N. 
 part magnetic iron ore is widely distributed. Many 
 large veins are known and worked. The principal 
 mines are in Morris, Sussex, Passaic and Warren cos., 
 although some ore is raised in Bergen and Hunterdon 
 cos. The development of the iron industry has been 
 steady and rapid, and the product lias increased from 
 about 10,000 tons in 1790 to 754,872 tons of ore mined 
 in 1880. The several lines of railroads which traverse 
 this mining district give easy communication, and 
 its location between the anthracite coal mines of 
 Pennsylvania and the great Atlantic coast markets 
 favor its development. There are 17 blast furnaces 
 in the State, which consume annually a large part of 
 the mine production. These natural advantages and 
 improved methods of smeltingores such as arefound 
 in the State, must stimulate the production, and also 
 the business of iron making. There are in Sussex eo. 
 (wo very large zinc ore deposits. The annual product 
 of ore has ranged from 15,000 to 22,000 tons for a 
 number of years. In the central part of the State 
 there is a belt of plastic clays of a superior character 
 crossing from the Raritan "Bay to the Delaware R. 
 It is most extensively opened in the vicinity of Wood- 
 bridge and Perth Amboy, in Middlesex co. The ag- 
 gregate amount of such clays dug annually is 250,000 
 tons, worth at least $1, 000,000. In addition to the 
 mineral deposits or ores, there are in the State beds of 
 roofing slate, which are worked at several localities 
 in Sussex and Warren cos.; inexhaustible supplies of 
 limestone, suitable for making excellent lime for use 
 in agriculture and in mechanic arts ; building stone 
 in great variety, and greensand marl, the well known 
 natural fertilizer of S. Jersey.— The manuf. interests 
 are varied and large. In 1880, according to the census 
 of that year, N.J. had 7,128 manuf. establishments, 
 employing 126,036 hands : capital invested, $106,226,- 
 593 ; w ; ages paid during the year, $46,083,045; value 
 of materials, $165,285,779 ; value of products, $254,- 
 380:236. Newark is the third city in the Union in the 
 value of its manuf products. The silk mills of 
 Pnterson, the iron works in the cos. of Morris, 
 Sussex and Warren, the steel, zinc and black lead 
 works of Jersey City, and the potteries of Trenton, 
 are all noted for the extent of their production and 
 the excellence of their work.— N.J. is divided into 
 6 customs districts, of which the ports of entry are 
 Newark, Perth Amboy. Tuckerton, Great Egg Har- 
 bor, Bridgeton,and Lamberton ; but the foreign trade 
 passes almost entirely through New York and Phila- 
 delphia. The Morris canal extends from Jersey City 
 to Phillipsburg, 101 m. The Delaware and the Raritan 
 canal connects Trenton on the Delaware with hew 
 Brunswick on the Raritan, 43 m., and has a feeder

 22 m. long from Bull's Island to Trenton. The State 
 had, in 1882, 1,753 m. of railroad in operation. — A 
 compulsory education law was passed in 1873. In 1880 
 there were 1,558 school buildiugs, 203,568 pupils en- 
 rolled in the public schools ; and 3,332 teachers ; 
 whole expenditures for public schools, §1,8S9,475 ; 
 valuation of all public school property, §6,401,603. A 
 large and flourishing normal school is located at Tren- 
 ton. There are 4 colleges in the State, and numerous 
 academies and seminaries. — N.J. is divided into 21 
 cos., viz.: Atlantic, Bergen, Burlington, Camden, 
 Cape May, Cumberland, Esses, Gloucester, Hudson. 
 Hunterdon, Mercer, Middlesex, Monmouth, Morris, 
 Ocean, Passaic, Salem, Somerset, Sussex, Union, and 
 Warren. Trentou is the cap. The other cities are 
 Bridgeton, Burlington, Camden, Elizabeth, Harrison, 
 Hoboken, Jersey City, Millville, Newark, New Bruns- 
 wick, Orange, Paterson, Plainfield, Rahway, and 
 Salem. — The present constitution was adopted in 
 Aug. 1844. The general election is held annually on 
 the 1st Tuesday after the first Monday in Nov. The 
 legislature consists of a senate of 21 members elected 
 for 3 years, and an assembly of 60 members elected 
 annually. Members are paid S3 per day. A salary 
 of §5,000 per annum is paid to the governor, who 
 continues in office for 3 days. The chancellor, who 
 presides over the court of errors and appeals, is 
 elected for a term of 7 years, and receives a salary of 
 65,500, besides fees. The State sends 7 representatives 
 to congress, and has 9 electoral votes. In 1881 the 
 State debt amounted to $1,896,300. The receiDts into 
 the Treasury were §878,747 ; expenditures, §1,096.203. 
 The total val. of taxable prop, was §527,451,222. — 
 The earliest colony of N.J. was probably planted 
 at Bergen between 1617 and 1620, by the Dutch, 
 who maintained possession until finally ousted by 
 the English in 1664. In 1674 the Dutch recaptured 
 New York and New Jersey. This triumph was, how- 
 ever, but of short duration, and the whole region 
 the same year reverted to the English. The last gov- 
 ernor for the English crown was Wm. Franklin, the 
 natural sou of Ben]. Franklin. The province adopted 
 a State constitution in 1776, under which the State 
 was governed until 1844, when its present constitu- 
 tion was adopted, and throughout the revolutionary 
 war it was frequently the scene of stirring events. 
 On its soil were fought the battles of Trenton, 
 Princeton, Millstone, Red Bank, and Monmouth. 
 Federal constitution was adopted by an unan mous 
 vote, 18th Dec, 1787. Pop. in 1790, 184.139; in 1830, 
 320,823 ; in 1860, 672,035 ; in 1870, 906,096 ; in 1880,

 drained by Thames R.; area, 650 sq. m. The surface 
 is hilly and in the S.W. mountainous; the soil is 
 best adapted to grazing. Fishing is extensively car- 
 ried on. The chief prod, in 18S0 were 12,201 bush, of 
 , buckwheat, 244,948 of corn, 146,821 of oats, 15,587 of 
 rye, and 29,622 lbs. of tobacco ; also potatoes and

 above its entrance into Long Island Sound, on the 
 C.V. the N.Y.,N.H.&H., and the N.Y.,P.&B.RRs., 
 40 m. S.E. Hartford. There are 21ines of steamers to 
 New York. The city is built on a declivity sloping S. 
 and E., and the ground in the rear of the city rises to 
 a considerable height. It has several handsome pub- 
 lic buildings, and the private residences, owing partly 
 to the influx of summer visitors who are attracted by 
 the beautiful scenery of the neighborhood, are in 
 many cases elegant and picturesque. The harbor is 
 the best on Long Island Sound, and one of the best 
 in the U. States. Ir, is 3 m. long and 5 fathoms deep, 
 sheltered by hills, seldom obstructed by ice, and de- 
 fended by Fort Trumbull at the entrance. The in- 
 habitants of New London have long been actively 
 engaged in the whale fishery, in which the city ranks 
 second only to New Bedford. Recently the seal fish- 
 ery has been pursued by vessels from this port at 
 Alaska and the South Shetland Islands. The cod 
 and mackerel fisheries for the New York and other 
 markets are also important. There is some foreign 
 and considerable coasting trades. The value of im- 
 ports for the year 1880 were $175,526 ; of exports $39,- 
 572. The number of vessels belonging to the port 
 was 168 sailing vessels, tonnage 7,769,and 36 steamers, 
 tonnage 13,148. The city has 11 churches, graded pub- 
 lic schools, including 2 high schools, a public library, 
 a daily and wkly paper, 4 nat. and 1 other bank, sev- 
 eral iron foundries, machine shops, planing mills, a

 places very productive. The remarkable earthquakes 
 of 1811-'12 severely injured this region, leaving a

 Mew Mexico, a S.W. territory, bounded N. by 
 Colorado, E. by the Indian Territory and Texas, S. 
 by Texas and Mexico, and W. by Arizona. It is situa- 
 ted between lat. 31° 20' and 37° N., and Ion. 103° and 
 109° W. The greatest length from N. to S. is 395 m., 
 the greatest breadth 355 m., and the area, 122,580 
 sq. m. The surface is marked with mesa, valley, and 
 mountains, foot hills, bluffs, gorges, canons, and 
 mountain parks. The mountain ranges from N. to S. 
 generally break into isolated ranges, spurs, and foot 
 hills, diminishing somewhat in altitude, and gradu- 
 ally becoming mesas or high table-lands. In the N. 
 part of the territory the Saugre de Cristo range 
 looms up with spurs and ranges, to the E. as the 
 Raton Mts., to the S. the Taos, Mora, and Santa Fe 
 Mts., to the W. the Conejos and Tierra Amarilla 
 ranges. S.E. of the old city of Santa Fe and E. of 
 the Rio Grande a long line of ranges runs S. as the 
 Placer Mts., the Sand'ia, Manzana, Oscura, Jumanes, 
 Fra Cristobal, Caballo, San Andres, and Orange 
 ranges. To the E. of the above a long series of high 
 tabie-lands, reaching to the mesa, known as the 
 Llano Estacado or Staked Plains, extend to the S. bor- 
 der of the Territory. On the W. side of the Rio 
 Grande, from the isolated peak known as San An- 
 tonio Mtn., ranges run south as follows: Petaca 
 Valles, Jemes, San Mateo, Ladrones, Oso Madalenas 
 Socorros, Gallinas, Pueblo, Southern San Mateo, also 
 including the extensive Miembres Mtn. ranges, and 
 the Florida Mts., near the S. border. Farther to the 
 west and near the Arizona line appears the continen- 
 tal divide, composed of several ranges. These differ- 
 ent ranges, distributed as they are, furnish a large 
 water supply, a great amount of timber, and are ex- 
 cellent shelter for stock during storms. The mesas 
 and table-lands in the N. part of N.Mex. are generally 
 abt. 6,000 to 6,500 ft. above sea level. In the central 
 
 portion of the Territory the mesas attain an eleva- 
 tion of abt. 5,000 ft., and in the S. of abt. 4,000 ft. 
 The ranges generally rise from 2,000 to 5,000 ft. above 
 the mesas and high table-lands. Mt. Baldy, 18 m. 
 from Santa Fe, is 12,202 ft. high, and Mt. Taylor, in 
 the Sierra San Mateo, 11,200 ft. The Rio Grande del 
 Norte, or Rio Bravo del Norte (the wild river of the 
 North), is the main river of N.Mex. It rises in S.W. 
 Colorado, at an elevation of 11,920 ft., and runs 
 southerly and centrally through the territory through 
 canons and cotton lands. The E. portion of the terri- 
 tory is drained by the Canadian R. (Rio Colorado) 
 emptying into the Arkansas R., and the N.W. part 
 by the Rio San Juan. The Puerco of the West, Zeunn, 
 Tularosa, and San Francisco, are in the Central West. 
 The Rio Miembres and Rio Gila are in the extreme 
 S.W. of the territory. — The mineral wealth of N.Mex. 
 is subject to constant discovery. Gold, silver, copper, 
 iron and lead abound, and there have been recent 
 discoveries of precious stones, notably of turquoises, 
 very valuable. Thirty miles S of Santa Fe are rich 
 placers which are worked at great profit, the ore exist- 
 ing in quartz easily crushed. Near the Placer Mts. the 
 whole soil seems impregnated with gold. The yield 
 of gold for the year 1881 was §185,000 ; silver, $275,- 
 000. The Salt lakes are numerous between the Rio 
 Grande and Pecos, and coal crops out in many places. 
 Mineral springs and warm springs are found in differ- 
 ent parts of the territory, possessing medicinal vir- 
 tue. The climate varies much. Near Santa Fe and in 
 the mountains the winter is severe. N. of Santa Fe 
 the days are never sultry and the nights are always 
 cool. In the south the temperature is mild, being 
 seldom below the freezing point, and rarely rising to 
 extreme heat, owing to the elevation of the surface. 
 The sky is generally clear and the atmosphere dry, 
 so that meat may be preserved for a long time with- 
 out salt. In the south the rainy season is in July and 
 August. The annual rainfall varies from 10 to 30 
 inches in different localities. The mean temperature 
 at Santa Fe (lat. 35° 41', elevation 6,862 ft.) for six 
 years has been as follows : spring, 49.7°; summer, 
 70.4"; autumn, 50.6°; winter, 31.6°; year, 50.6°.— Not- 
 withstanding the value of gold, silver, and copper 
 mining, stock-raising is the most profitable source of 
 income, the country being better adapted to this in- 
 dustry than the cultivation of the soil. Immense 
 flocks of sheep are raised, as well as great numbers 
 of beeves and mules. Portions of the high plains, 
 valleys and hills are covered with grass sufficient for 
 pasturing millions of animals. According to a care- 
 ful estimate made bv L. A. Sheldon, governor of 
 N.Mex., the yield of wool, in 1880, amounted to 10,500,- 
 000 lbs. produced by 5,000,000 sheep ; being an aver- 
 age of abt. 2 lbs. to the head. The an mnt of laud 
 susceptible of profitable cultivation ;s difficult to 
 estimate. The soil is universally goo- and only re- 
 quires fater to make the production^ equal to those 
 of the best lands in the country. A very large por- 
 tion of the cultivable lands may be irrigated at a 
 small cost, and undoubtedly will be when pop. be- 
 comes more dense and necessity imposes greater de- 
 mauds. The present methods of cultivation are 
 primeval and do not properly indicate the produc- 
 tiveness of the soil. — W. G. Ritch, territorial secre- 
 tary, writes under a recent date: "Our mines are 
 rapidly coming to the front and have the special ad- 
 vantage of an equable climate and easy transporta- 
 tion all the year around. Three railroads are now 
 within our borders, and the Texas Pacific still ' com- 
 ing.' The recent opening of a continuous line of 
 railway to the Pacific via the Atchison, Topeka and 
 Santa Fe and the Southern Pacific RRs., places 
 N.Mex. upon a great national highway. The N. ter- 
 minus of one of the contemplated lines to the city of 
 Mexico is at El Paso del Norte, upon the N. boun- 
 dary of Mexico, immediately adjacent to the S. bor'

 der of N.Mex. The completion of the road to the capi- 
 tal of the Mexican republic cannot fail to inure 
 greatly to the benefit of N.Mex. Other lines are build- 
 ing into and through the Territory, which within a 
 few years will make every section of it conveniently 
 accessible to travel and trade. A special advantage 
 of N.Mex. is its adaption to horticulture and cultiva- 
 tion of the vine. It is equal if not superior to Cali- 
 fornia. The person who comes early aud establishes 
 an orchard in variety and quality will possess a bo- 
 nanza superior to a gold mine." Says Governor Lewis 
 Wallace iu his last message to the legislature : 
 '• What with our advantages of climate, broad pas- 
 tures, our mountains teeming with minerals, you 
 may go confidently forward preparing lor a popula- 
 tion as rieh, prosperous and enterprising as any in 
 the world." — In 1880, according to the U. States 
 census, the assessed val. of taxable prop, were $6,- 
 689,1594 (real estate, §2,706,478; personal prop., S3, 
 983,216). This is estimated to be abt. 50 per cent, of 
 the true valuation, which is, approximately, $13,379,- 
 388. The State tax was $40,894; county tax, $59,071. 
 N.Mex. was visited by the Spaniards as early as 
 1537. Humboldt thought that N.Mex. was the first 
 abiding place of the Aztecs, as they migrated 
 southward, and remarkable ruins testify to the ad- 
 vancement in civilization of the early inhabitants. 
 The country was ceded to the U. States by Mexico 
 iu 1848, and a territorial government was organized 
 Sept. 9, 1851). — The territory is divided into 12 cos , 
 viz.: Bernalillo, Colfax, Dona Ana, Grant, Lincoln, 
 Mora, Rio Arriba, San Miguel, Santa Fe, Socorro, 
 Taos, Valencia. The cap. is Santa Fe. Pop. in 1850, 
 61,547; in 1860, 93,515; in 1870, 91,874 (decrease 
 due to the setting off of territory to form Arizona 
 and a part of Colorado) ; in 1880, 119,565 (of whom 
 61,496 male and 55,069 female; 111,515 native and 
 8,051 of foreign birth ; 108,721 white, 998 colored, 
 56 Chinese, aud 9,790 Indians and half breeds). The 
 number of tribal Indians (notiueludedin the census) 
 in the territory in 1882, according to the report of 
 the commissioner of Indian alfairs, was 28,537.

 New Orleans, La., a city. 
 
 New Orleans (Fr. La Nouvelle Orleans), La., 
 the chief city and commercial metropolis of the State, 
 port of entry, and the 10th city of the U. States in. 
 point of population, is situated in lat. 29° 57' 30" N., 
 Ion. 90" 8 W., on the left side of the Mississippi R. 
 (except the annexed town of Algiers which is on 
 the right bank), 115 m. above its mouth, 953 m. be- 
 low the mouth of the Ohio, and 1,149 m. below the 
 mouth of the Missouri, 1,195 m. S.W. of Washington 
 by the great Southern Mail, and 690m. S. of St. Louis 
 by the C.,St.L.&N.O.RR. It embraces nearly the 
 whole of Orleans parish, with parts of Jefferson and 
 Plaquemines, reaching on the N. and E. to Lakes 
 Ponchartrain and Borgne. The older portion of the 
 city is built within a great bend of the river, from 
 which circumstance it derives its familiar name of 
 the " Crescent City." In the progress of its growth 
 up stream, it has now so extended itself as to follow 
 long curves in opposite directions, so that the river- 
 front on the left bank presents an outline somewhat 
 resembling the letter S. The statutory limits of the 
 city embrace an area of nearly 150 sq. m., but the ac- 
 tual city covers an area of abt. 41 sq. m. It is built 
 on an inclined plan, descending gently from the 
 river towards the swamp in the rear ; so that when 
 the Mississippi is full, the streets are 3 or 4 ft. below 
 the surface of the river. To prevent inundation an 
 artificial embankment called the Levee has been 
 raised at a great expense. This Levee is 15 ft. wide 
 and 14 ft. high, and is constructed for a great distance 
 along the river bank. Directly in front of the city it 
 affords a very pleasant walk. The view of the city 
 from the river, in ascending or descending, is beau- 
 tiful, and on entering it, the stranger finds it difficult 
 to believe that he has arrived at an American city. 
 This remark applies especially to the central and 
 lower parts, where the older buildings are ancient 
 and of foreign construction, where the manners, 
 customs and language are so various ; the popula- 
 tion being very nearly equally made up of Americans, 
 French, Creoles and Spaniards, with a mixture of 
 almost every nation on the globe. During the months 
 of July, August, Sept. aud Oct., the population is 
 much reduced through fear of the yellow fever, which 
 appeared for the first time in New Orleans, in 176&,

 or, according to Dr. Bennet Dowler, in 1796. It is, 
 nevertheless, remarkable that this fever, of which the 
 Datives and older residents have been to a great ex- 
 tent exempted, even in the most fatal seasons, is not 
 now so permanently dangerous as it was in the first 
 half of this century, and is even for years without 
 making its appearance. Apart from yellow fever, 
 New Orleans is not surpassed in healthfulness by 
 any large city. Among the public buildings and 
 monuments the most noticeable are the cathedral of 
 St. Louis, and, fronting Jackson square, the custom 
 house, commenced in 1848 and not yet finished ; the 
 branch mint of the U. States, the new cotton ex- 
 change, built in 1883-3 ; the bronze equestrian statue 
 of Jackson, by Clark Mills, in Jackson square, and 
 the colossal bronze statue of Henry Clay, by Hart, 
 in Canal street. By its width, the splendor of its 
 buildings, and the elegance and good taste of its 
 stores, Canal street, which is the line of separation 
 between the two parts of the town popularly called 
 the French and the American, may advantageously 
 compete with any other street of the Northern States. 
 There are in New Orleans about 60 churches or places 
 of public worship. The benevolent institutions are 
 numerous, the more remarkable being the charity 
 hospital, which accommodates abt. 500 patients, and 
 is attended by the sisters of charity ; the asylums for 
 old men and widows, belonging to the ladies of 
 Providence ; Stowe's hospital ; the Franklin infirm- 
 ary ; the U. States naval hospital, &c. There are abt. 
 17 cemeteries iu and around the city, in which the 
 usual mode of sepulture is above ground, the soil 
 being so moist and marshy that interment beneath 
 is objectionable. Many of these tombs are costly and 
 elegant structures. Besides the public schools, which 
 make great progress, there are numerous private 
 schools, two flourishing medical colleges, a Roman 
 Catholic ecclesiastical seminary, a college under 
 the Jesuits, a convent and academy of Ursuline nuns, 
 a convent of Redemptorists, free schools directed by 
 members of several religious orders, <fec. There were 
 in 1882, 27 daily, weekly, and monthly papers ; 7 nat. 
 and 4 State banks. The principal theatres are the 
 French opera hou>e, the academy of music, the St. 
 Charles theatre, and the Grant opera house. The 
 city is well provided with water, and its fire depart- 
 ment is admirably organized. New Orleans is the 
 grand emporium of all the vast regions traversed by 
 the Mississippi and its tributary streams, and enjoys, 
 in consequence, a greater command of internal navi- 
 gation than any other city either of the new or old 
 world. Dense populations are still to be found in 
 comparatively small portions only of the immense 
 territories of which this city is the entrepot ; and yet 
 her progress, up to the outbreak of the Civil War, 
 has been rapid beyond all precedent. The war, how- 
 ever, proved in the highest degree disastrous to the 
 interests of New Orleans, by momentarily annihila- 
 ting the cotton trade, and checking the commerce 
 and industry of the Southern States. Within the last 
 few years, however, notwithstanding the competition 
 of the eastern railroads, and chiefly owing to the im- 
 provements made at the mouth of the Mississippi 
 which allow vessels of the largest size to ascend the 
 river up to the city, commerce has greatly revived, 
 and business found its old channel. New Orleans is 
 the terminus of the C.,St,L.&N.O., the M's.L.&T., 
 and the N.O.&T.RRs. There are lines of steamers 
 running to the Northern ports, to the West Indies, 
 South America, and Europe. New Orleans ranks next 
 to New York in the value of its exports and 4th for 
 its entire foreign commerce, several ports surpassing 
 it in the value of imports. The value of imports 
 for 1882 was 612,255,496; of exports, 870,701,927, 
 in which cotton entered for 1,227,963 bales or 
 $63.609, S28. The number of entrances in the foreign 
 trade for that year was 619 of 620,072 tons ; clear- 
 
 ances 640 of 661,498 tons ; belonging to the port. 452 
 vessels of 24,265 tons and 51 steamers of 28,631 tons. 
 New Orleans is emphatically the grcatcotton market 
 of the world. The cotton crop for 1881 reached 
 6,589,329 bales, of which 1,586,000 were received here. 
 Iu the same year 273,000,000 lbs. of sugar were raised 
 in La., of which 174,644 hogshead and 47,435 barrels 
 reached this port, together with 272,962 barrels of 
 molasses. The receipts of rice were 48,185,000 lbs.; 
 of tobacco, 11,584 hogsheads. Owing to the new 
 system of barges used for transportation on the 
 Mississippi, the grain trade is rapidly growing. The 
 quantities received in 1S81 were 9,137,373 bush, of 
 corn and 6,523.747 of wheat. The total value of the 
 principal articles of produce received from the in- 
 terior during the same year was 8197,758,175. The 
 manuf. interests of the city are now making marked 
 progress. New Orleans is divided into 7 districts; it 
 is governed by a mayor and 7 administrators elected 
 by the people for 2 years. In 1882 the total city debt 
 was 816,872,220 ; the assessment of taxable property 
 was 8103,177,149; and the total tax reached 31| 
 mills. — The site of New Orleans was surveyed in 1717 
 by De la Tour ; it was settled in 1723, held by the 
 French till 1729, then by the Spanish till 1801, and by 
 the French again till 1803, when, with the province 
 of La., it was ceded to the U. States. It was incorpo- 
 rated as a city in 1S04. The most memorable events 
 in its history are the battle of Jan. 8, 1815, in 
 which the British were defeated by Andrew Jackson, 
 and the capture of the city by Admiral Farrasrut on 
 April 24, 1862. Pop. in 1810, 17,243; in 1860, 168,675 ;

 ton by O.C.RR. Daily steamers from New York to Fall 
 R., Mass., touch here. Newport has a line harbor, 
 which may be entered at all times without a pilot, 
 and is safe, commodious, and deep enough for the 
 largest ships. It is defended by Fort Adams on Breti- 
 ton's Point. The city is on a declivity facing the har- 
 bor, and contains a State house, custom house, city 
 hall, the Redwood library with 20,000 volumes, the 
 People's library (free) with 15,000 volumes, the ma- 
 sonic hall, armory hall, and numerous elegant pri- 
 vate residences. Its salubrious climate, refreshing 
 ocean breezes, facilities for sea bathing, and charm- 
 ing natural scenery have rendered it one of the most 
 popular summer resorts in the U. States, and the visi- 
 tors during the fashionable season are numbered by 
 thousands. The whole S. portion of the island is now 
 dotted over with villas, and there are several large 
 hotels. The older part of the city is interestiug for 
 its quaint and picturesque appearance. The com- 
 merce of Newport is now very limited, and its 
 mauuf. are almost confined to a few cotton mills, a 
 brass foundry, and lead works. In 1880 there were 
 152 vessels of 6,027 tons in aggregate belonging to 
 the port. The city has 1 endorsed high and several 
 public and private schools, 5 nat. and 4 other banks, 
 1 daily and 2 wkly papers, and a paid fire depart- 
 ment. The society of Friends' Jiave had their annual 
 meetings here for abt. 250 years. The U. States tor- 
 pedo station is located on an island in Newport har- 
 bor. Newport was settled in 1638, and was soon no- 
 ted for the enterprise, activity, opulence and refine- 
 ment of its inhabitants. During the revolution 8,000 
 British and Hessian troops, who were quartered in 
 the town, destroyed 480 houses, burned the shipping, 
 cut down all the groves for fuel, <fcc., and the com- 
 mercial interests of Newport have never recovered 
 from the injury which they inflicted. Pop. 15,693.

 New Yorls, " the Empire State," is bounded 
 N.W. and N. by Lake Erie, Lake Ontario, the St. 
 Lawrence R. and the Province of Quebec, E. by Lake 
 Champlain, Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, 
 and the Atlantic Ocean, S. and S.W. by the Atlantic 
 Ocean, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. It is situated 
 between lat. 40° 30' and 45° N., Ion. 71° 51' and 79° 
 46' W. The extreme length from E. to W. is 412 m., 
 and the width from N. to S. 311 m. The State has a 
 water boundary of 880 m. (of which the ocean con- 
 stitutes 250 m., the rivers 280 and the lakes 350), and 
 aland boundary of 540 m.; area, 49,170 (or, water 
 surface excluded, 47,620 sq. m.). The surface of the 
 State is much diversified. Long Island is flat and 
 sandy. On both sides of the Hudson R. are the High- 
 lands, some summits of which reach an elevation of 
 1,700 ft. North of these are the Catskill Mts., situ- 
 ated chiefly in Greene co., of which Round Top and 
 High Peak, abt. 3,800 ft. in height, are the mostcon- 
 spicuous peaks. Beyond the water-shed which turns 
 the drainage toward the N., the country is rolling 
 and diversified. Extending over a considerable part of 
 the four N.E. cos., Clinton, Franklin, Hamilton, and 
 Essex, is the "Adirondack wilderness," which, after 
 the White Mts. of N.H., contain the most lofty sum- 
 mits of the N. spur of the Appalachian range, Mt. 
 Mary being 5,402 ft. and Mt. Mclntyre 5,106 ft. above 
 sea level. The principal rivers are the Hudson, Dela- 
 ware, Susquehanna, Mohawk, Oswego, Genesee, 
 Niagara, Alleghany, and St. Lawrence. Besides the 
 frontier Lakes Ontario and E.'ie, N. Y. has many lakes 
 of considerable size, among the principal of which 
 are Lakes Champlain, George, Otsego, Oneida, Ska- 
 neateles, Cayuga, Seneca, Crooked, Canandaigua, 
 Chautauqua and Cattaraugus. The principal islands 
 are Manhattan, Long Island, and Staten Island.— 
 There is a wide range of temperature and there are 
 great variations in the climate. The mean tempera- 
 ture of the State, as determined from observations 
 made at 58 meteorological stations, for periods rang- 
 ing from 1 to 25 years, is 46.49°. The mean length of 
 the season of vegetation, from the first blooming of 
 apples to the first killing frost, is 174 days, while on 
 Long Island it is 12£ days longer, and in St. Law- 
 rence co., 22 days shorter. The mean annual fall of 
 rain and snow Is abt. 40.93 inches. Notwithstanding 
 the mountainous and broken character of much of its 
 surface, the greater part of the soil of N.Y. is arable, 
 and some of it very fertile. Most of the mountainous 
 districts are fine grazing lands, and yield the best 
 milk, butter and cheese. The plains and valleys are 
 adapted to the culture of ceieals, and the N. and

 N.W. counties to root-crops. The forest trees of the 
 State present a great variety, and a few years ago 
 nearly one-half its area was covered with forests, but 
 the great demand for timber, lumber, and hemlock 
 and oak bark, for building ships, houses, railroads, 
 and for tanning purposes, has much reduced the 
 forest area. N.Y. occupies a foremost place in agri- 
 culture. Its principal prod, for the census year 
 
 1880 were 7.792,062 bush, of barley, 4,461,200 of buck- 
 wheat, 25,875,480 of corn, 37,575,506 of oats, 2,634,690 
 of rye, 11,587,766 of wheat, 32,571,900 of potatoes, 6,- 
 572,800 lbs. of tobacco,700.550 tons of hay,and 11,206,- 
 730 lbs. of wool. There were on farms 610,358 horses 
 (besides abt. 350,000 not in farms), 5,072 mules, 39,- 
 633 working oxen, 1,437,855 milch cows, 862,233 
 other cattle, 1,715,180 sheep, and 751,907 hogs.- — 
 Among the minerals of economic value the most im- 
 portant is iron. Galena, or lead ore, is found in St. 
 Lawrence and other cos. in large quantities. Salt 
 springs, from which a vast amount of salt is made, 
 occur along the line of the Ouondaga salt group, es- 
 pecially in Onondago Co., the product of which, in 
 1880, was 8,748,203 bis., valued at Sl,106,740. The 
 State abounds in building material ; its granite, 
 white and colored marbles, sandstones, and gray 
 and blue limestones, as well as its excellent clay 
 and sand for brick, furnish a sufficiency of ma- 
 terial for its dwellings. In 1880, there were 78 
 iron mines, employing 4,675 hands, produced 
 1,239,759 tons of ore, valued at §3,419,132. The State 
 has numerous mineral springs of high repute — the 
 most famous of which are those at Saratoga, Balston, 
 New Lebanon, Avon and Sharon. Petroleum is ob- 
 tained in Alleghany co. In Chautauqua, Dutchess, 
 Oneida, and Monroe cos. are illuminating gas-springs. 
 — According to the census of 1880, almost one-fifth 
 of the capital invested in manuf. in the U. States 
 was employed in N.Y., and abt. a quarter of the en- 
 tire pioducts of the country was the result of N.T. 
 industry. The State had in the census year 42,739 
 manuf. establishments, employing 364,549 men, 137,- 
 455 females above 15 years, and 29,529 children and 
 youth ; capital invested, §514,246,575 ; wages paid" 
 during the year, $198,634,029 ; value of " materials, 
 $679,612,545 ; value of products, 81,080,696,596. The 
 leading industries are agricultural implements, book- 
 binding, boots and shoes, carnages, clothing, cotton 
 goods, flouring, furniture, iron works of every de- 
 scription, leather, liquors (malt), lumber, molasses, 
 and sugar (refined;, printing and publishing, 
 tobacco and cigars, and woolen goods. — N.Y. is 
 divided, for commercial purposes, into 10 cus- 
 toms districts, viz.: Buffalo Creek, Cape Vincent, 
 Champlain (port of entry Plattsburg), Dunkirk, Gene- 
 see (Rochester), New York, Niagara (Suspension 
 Bridge), Owegatchie (Ogdensburg), Oswego and Sag 
 Harbor. The total number of merchant vessels be- 
 longing to the State was 4,273 of 962.220 tons.— In 
 
 1881 the total number of miles of railroads in the 
 State was 9,186. of which 477m. were horse-railways. 
 This includes the elevated railroads in the city of 
 New York. The steam surface-roads have cost $695,- 
 525,828, the horse-raihvays 840.686.946, and the ele- 
 vated roads 833,038,332, a total of 8770,251, 107.24. The 
 steam surface-roads carried 47.197,385 pasengers dur- 
 ing the year, the horse-roads 244,900,717, and the ele- 
 vated roads 60,831,757. The steam surface-roads also 
 carried 57,356,128 tons of f reight. Their aggregate 
 earnings were 8108,965, 556.04,^ operating expenses 
 S64,996,989.54, leaving as net earnings $43,968,566.50, 
 or 6J per cent, on the cost. The earnings of horse- 
 railroads amounted to 813,449,121 ; cost of operating, 
 89,157,457 ; net earnings, 84,291,664, or 10£ per cent, 
 of cost. Earnings of elevated roads, §4.612,975 ; ex- 
 pense of operating, 82,644,525 : surplus, 81.968,650, or 
 abt. 6 per cent, on the cost. The aggregate of stock 
 and debts was $905,507,218 for steam and $42,990,204 
 
 for horse-roads, but of the former only $662,871,483 
 represents roads within the limits of the State. — N.T. 
 has 14 State canals, whose total length is 857 m. The 
 most important is the Erie Canal (355 m.), which 
 connects Lake Erie with the Hudson R., and affords 
 a continuous water channel through which the pro- 
 duce of the Western States and Canada may reach 
 the port of New York. The tonnage of transporta- 
 tion for the year 1880 was 6,462.290 ;' tolls, $1,155,257. 
 — Free schools are established for all between the 
 ages of 5 and 21 years. In 1881, the number of 
 persons of school age was 1,662.813, of which 
 1,021,282. were attending school ; number of school 
 houses. 11,894; number of teachers, 30,826; esti- 
 mated value of 6chool houses and sites, 31,091,- 
 63); total expenditures for school purposes, $10,808,- 
 802. Each city, for convenience, has an independent 
 school government, district schools being maintained 
 in the several wards, and the whole completed by a 
 high school, where the academic standard is well 
 maintained. Private schools are quite numerous in 
 the cities, and there are many academies throughout 
 the State providing secondary instruction. The city 
 of New York has a normal school for the instruction 
 of teachers under its separate control, and there are 8 
 normal schools in different portions of the State un- 
 der the joint management of the superintendent of 
 public instruction and local boards. The university 
 system of the State for the supervision of higher and 
 secondary instruction is, in some respects, peculiar 
 to New York. Regents of the university are elected 
 by the legislature. The university does not exist, but 
 the regents are active and influential. The colleges 
 of the State, while independent of the regents in the 
 absolute sense, are, nevertheless, largely under their 
 influence. Institutions of learning, devoted to special 
 scientific education, exist in various sections, so that 
 the entire field is fully covered. — A general board of 
 charities has general supervision over the public in- 
 stitutions, with the exception of prisons. N.Y. has 3 
 State prisons at Auburn, Clinton, and Sing Sing. 
 Their average number of inmates in 1881, was 9,981. 
 There are 6 county penitentiaries at New York, Brook- 
 lyn, Albany, Syracuse, Rochester and Buffalo. For 
 the blind there are State institutions at Batavia and 
 New York City. In the latter city also is the 6chool 
 for the instruction of the deaf and dumb. TheElmira 
 reformatory had 493 inmates in 18S0. The house of 
 refuge for boys, on Randall's Island will contain 
 1,000, and the Western institution, at Rochester 60J. 
 There is also a new house of refuge for women at 
 Hudson. Asylums for the insane have been opened at 
 Utica, Poughkeepsie, Buffalo, Middletown,and Bing- 
 hampton, and there are besides several incorporated 
 and private asylums. The number of inmates in all the 
 State and private asylums is constantly increasing 
 and had reached 10,059 in 1S81. — N.Y. is divided into 
 60 cos., viz.: Albany, Alleghany, Broome, Cattarau- 
 gus, Cayuga, Chautauqua, Chemung, Chenango, 
 Clinton, Columbia, Cortland, Delaware, Dutchess, 
 Erie, Essex, Franklin, Fulton, Genesee, Greene, 
 Hamilton, Herkimer, Jefferson, Kings, Lewis, Liv- 
 ingston, Madison, Monroe, Montgomery, New York, 
 Niagara, Oneida, Onondaga, Ontario, Orange, Or- 
 leans, Oswego, Otsego, Putnam, Queens, Rensselaer, 
 Richmond, Rockland, Saratoga, Schenectady, Scho- 
 harie, Schuyler, Seneca, Steuben, St. Lawrence, 
 Suffolk, Sullivan, Tioga, Tompkins, Ulster, Warren, 
 Washington, Wayne, Westchester, Wyoming, Yates. 
 The cap. of the State is Albany. — The constitution 
 adopted in 1846, as several times amended, is still in 
 force. The legislature, which meets on the 1st Tues- 
 day in January, consists of a senate of 32 members 
 elected for 2 years, and an assembly of 128 members 
 elected for 1 year. Executive officers are elected for 
 2 years, with the exception of the governor and lieu- 
 tenant-governor, who serve for 3 years. The highest

 judicial tribunal of the State is the court of appeals, 
 which consists of a chief and six associate judges. 
 There are 33 justices of ihe supreme court, 4 in each 
 of the 8 judicial districts, except the first, comprising 
 the city and co. of New York, in which the number is 
 5. The supreme court has general original jurisdic- 
 tion. Every co. has its co. court, surrogate court, 
 ''and several justices of the peace. The judges of the 
 Various courts are elected by the people, those of t he 
 court of appeals and supreme court for 14, of co. 
 courts for 6, and justices of the peace for 4 years. 
 The State sends 34 representatives to congress, and 
 lias 36 electoral votes. In 1881 the State funded 
 debt was 19.114,054. The receipts into the treasury 
 amounted to 814,940,403 ; expenditures, §12,856,760. 
 The assessed value of property was $2,681,237,606, of 
 which $2,340,335,690 was real estate, and $340,921,916 
 persoual property. — John De Verrazzano, a Floren- 
 tine in command of a French vessel, landed upon 
 the soil of N. Y. in 1524. Henry Hudson sailed up the 
 river which now bears his name iu 1609. A trading 
 post and fort were built near Albany in 1614. Iu Aug. 
 1664, the Dutch dominions were surrendered to the 
 English. N.Y. is one of the original 13 States ; framed 
 a constitution in 1777, and ratified the U. States con- 
 stitution July 26, 178*. Pop. in 1790, 340,120 ; in 1830, 
 1,918,608; in 1860, 3,880,735; in 1870, 4,382,759; in 
 1880, 5,082,871 (of whom2,505,322 males and 2,577,549 
 females ; 3,871,492 natives, and 1,211,379 of foreign 
 birth ; 5,016,022 whites, 65,104 colored, 926 Chinese, 
 and 819 Indians). 
 
 — the principal city of the above State, the commer- 
 cial metropolis of the U. States, the most popular 
 city of the Western hemisphere, the third in the civi- 
 lized world, and second only to London in commer- 
 cial importance. It lies at the mouth of the Hudson 
 R., at its confluence with a narrow strait called East 
 R., which falls iuto Long Island Sound, 18 in. from 
 the Atlantic Ocean, 143 m. S. of Albany, 90 m. N.E. of 
 Philadelphia, 205 m. N.E. Washington, 234 m. S.W. 
 Boston, 715 m. E. of Chicago, and 1,370 m. N.E. of 
 New Orleans. The city occupies the entire surface of 
 Manhattan Island; several islands in the East R., 
 and in the Bay ; and a portion of the mainland N. of 
 Manhattan Island and separated from it by Harlem 
 R. and Spuyten Duyvel Creek. The extreme length 
 N. from the battery is 16 m.; greatest width from 
 the Hudson to the mouth of Bronx R., 4^ in.; area, 
 nearly 41J sq. m., or 26,500 acres, of which 12,100 
 acres are on the mainland. Manhattan Island, on 
 which the city proper stands, is 13£ m. long, and 
 varies in breadth from a few hundred yards to 2 J m., 
 having an area of nearly 22 sq. m. The older portion 
 of the city below 14th St. is somewhat irregularly 
 laid out. The plan of the upper part includes avenues 
 running N. to the boundary of the island, and streets 
 running across them at right angles from river to 
 river. The city is compactly built to Central Park, 
 abt. 5 m. from the Battery, and on the E. side for the 
 most part to Harlem, 3i m. farther. Distances are 
 calculated from the City Hall, which is in lat 40° 42' 
 40" N., Ion. 74T 8" W. A rocky ridge runs through 
 the centre of the city, rising at Washington Heights 
 238 ft. above 6ea-level. The city is connected with 
 the mainland of N.Y. by bridges across the Harlem 
 R., with Long Island by a magnificent suspension 
 bridge across the East R., and with New Jersey, 
 Long Island, and Staten Island by 26 steam ferries. 
 Ten railroads radiate from the city, while the finest 
 passenger steamboats in the world pass up the Hud- 
 son, Long Island Sound, and down the narrows, 
 through the lower bay. A tunnel under the Hudson 
 R. is in process of construction by a company with 
 $10,000,000 capital, which is intended to furnish the 
 means of extending the railways which now termi- 
 nate on the New Jersey side of the river to the heart 
 of the city of N.Y. The harbor is spacious and safe, 
 
 the inner harbor extending 8 m. from the Narrows 
 to the city, and several miles farther up both the 
 North and East Rs., but particularly the latter. It is 
 abt. 25 m. in circumference, and the largest \essels 
 come to its wharves. Besides this, it has an outer 
 harbor, extending from the Narrows to Sandy Hook, 
 consisting of Raritan bay. Sandy Hook, on which is 
 a light house, is 18 m. "from the city ; and at this 
 point, there are 27 ft. of water on the bar at high tide, 
 f.nd 21 ft. at low tide. Within Sandy Hook, there is 
 a good anchorage. The harbor is entered not only 
 from the ocean at Sandy Hook and through the Nar- 
 rows, but on the N.E. from Long Island Sound, and 
 on the S.W. through the Kills and Staten Island 
 Sound. Several islands within the inner harbor are 
 attached to the city, which are Governor's, Bcdloe's 
 (the proposed site of the colossal statue of Liberty 
 which France is to present to N.Y. ), and Ellis is- 
 lands, on all of which are strong fortifications ; and 
 Blackwell's, Great Bam, and Randall's islands, in the 
 East R. After passing the bar at Sandy Hook, the 
 chann 1 to the city has a depth of water of from 35 
 to 50 ft. The average tide at the wharves is from 6 
 to 7 ft. Steamboats are'eonstantly employed in tow- 
 ing vessels to and from the ocean. The safest and 
 best portion of the harbor, and where the vessels 
 chiefly lie, is along East R., where there is rarely any 
 obstruction from ice. The tide sweeping through 
 this part with a strong and rapid current. The ex- 
 cellence of its harbor, and other great natural advan- 
 tages, have contributed to make N.Y. the second 
 commercial city on the globe. — The city co-extensive 
 with the co. of same name, is built of brick, brown 
 sandstone, and white marble, and is now rivaling in 
 splendor any of the European capitals. It is impossi- 
 ble to even enumerate here all the public and busi- 
 ness buildings which should command description, 
 among which arc the city hall, court-house, post- 
 office, St. Patrick's cathedral, Trinity church, Grace 
 church, academy of music, Cooper institute, Drexel, 
 Western Union, Park bank, Herald, Tribune, Tem- 
 ple court. Masonic temple, academy of design, 
 Grand Central depot, young men's christian asso- 
 ciation, mid the numerous great hotels, several of 
 which have accommodations for more than a thou- 
 sand persons. There are abt. 500 churches of all 
 denominations. The public school system comprises 
 113 primary schools aud departments and 104 gram- 
 mar schools, besides 5 grammar and primary schools 
 for colored children ; a normal college for girls, 1 
 nautical school, and the college of the city of New 
 York. In 1880 there were 264,163 children attending 
 public schools, and the teachers numbered 3,288. Be 
 sides, there are 35 Roman Catholic schools, and col- 
 leges and academies of the religious orders. Colum- 
 bia college is one of the oldest in the country ; the 
 university of the city of New York has been more 
 recently established. Each has departments of law 
 and medicine, and there are two other medical col- 
 leges, several theological seminaries, and many pri- 
 vate academies. The hospitals and institutions of 
 charity aud benevolence are on a liberal scale, 
 and too numerous for notice here. Among them 
 are asylums for insane, blind, deaf and dumb, 
 magdalens, foundlings, &c. The Astor, mercantile, 
 society, apprentices', historical society, eclectic, law 
 institute, Cooper union, young men's christian 
 association, Lenox, and other libraries not connected 
 with institutions of learning, have in aggregate abt. 
 600,000 volumes. There were in 1882, 543 newspapers 
 and periodicals published in N.Y., of which 23 were 
 daily. The academy of music, the house of Italian 
 opera, has seats for 4,700 persons, and there are about 
 25 other theatres giving nightly entertainments. The 
 Central Park, laid out in the best style of landscape- 
 gardening, is one of the largest and finest in the world, 
 embracing a rectangular area, of 843 acres. A large 
 
NEW

 portion of it is occupied by the two Croton reservoirs, 
 besides which the lakes, 5 in number, occupy 43| 
 acres. Fourteen other small public parks and 
 squares are scattered over the city. The Croton 
 aqueduct brings a river of pure soft water 40 m. 
 which is reserved in reservoirs of a capacity of 9,- 
 500,000,000 gallons, and distributed through abt. 400 
 m. of pipes with such a head as to supply public foun- 
 tains of 60 and 80 feet jets, and the upper stories of 
 most buildings. This supply has become scarcely suf- 
 Ificientfor the actual population, and works are to be 
 «oon undertaken as to obtain a large increase of supply 
 at an estimated cost of §25,000,000. The city govern- 
 ment is composed of a mayor, boards of aldermen and 
 councilmen , and bureaux of various departments. The 
 police force consists of 3,000 men, with salaries of 
 $1,000 to $8,000 a year. The commissioners of charity 
 and correction have direction of asylums, hospitals, 
 and prisons. Commissioners of emigration receive 
 and attend to the wants of emigrants. A paid fire de- 
 partment exists, with 43 steam tire engines, 2 chemical 
 engines, 19 hook and ladder trucks, and 850 men, cost- 
 ing abt. $1,300,000 annually.— In 1880 the valuation 
 of real estate was $1,049,340,336, personal property, 
 $197,532,075 ; total valuation, $1,246,872,411 ; bonded 
 debt, $136,406,733; floating debt, $6,039,966; total 
 indebtedness, $142,446,700 ; share of State tax, $2,- 
 368,906 ; city tax, $20,935,926; total taxation, exclusive 
 of school, $23,304,832 ; school tax, $1,382,155.— N.Y. 
 has 25 m. of water-front available for docks. There 
 are abt. 70 piers on the East R. and 80 on the Hudson 
 R. The control of the water-front is vested in 3 com- 
 missioners of docks. N.Y. has direct communication 
 with the principal coastwise and transatlantic ports 
 by numerous lines of steamers. Besides the Hudson 
 R. and other local boats, there are more than 20 lines 
 to various ports on the Atlantic and gulf coasts, 
 owning 75 steamers, with an aggregate of 75,000 tons. 
 To the West Indies and South America six lines 
 despatch 25 steamers with an aggregate tonnage of 
 75,600. These include the Pacific Mail line, running 
 via the Isthmus of Panama to San Francisco, and a 
 line to Rio de Janeiro. There are 12 lines of ocean 
 steamers to British ports, with 105 ships of 310,460 
 tons, and 7 lines to continental ports, with 69 ships 
 of 205,614 tons.— N.Y. is thegreat centre of American 
 finance and commerce. More than half the commerce 
 of the U. States is carried on through the customs 
 district of which it is the port, and abt. two-thirds 
 of the duties are here collected, the whole amount 
 for the year 1882 being $216,138,916, of which $149,- 
 334,077 was collected in the N.Y. district. This district 
 besides the city, embraces the greater part of Long 
 Island, including Brooklyn ; Staten Island ; the New 
 Jersey shore N. of Staten Island, including Jersey 
 City; and the shores of Hudson R. The value of im- 
 ports at the port of N.Y. for the year 1882 was §521,- 
 275,897 ; domestic exports. $370,497,741 ; of foreign 
 exports, $16,162,827. Total value of imports and ex- 
 ports, $837,564,666, which represents 56.78 per cent, 
 of the entire commerce of the country. During that 
 >ear 1,806 American vessels of 1,075,682 tons, and 
 4,719 foreign vessels of 6,285.161 tons entered ; and 
 1,374 American vessels of 892,739 tons, and 4,806 
 foreign vessels of 6,370,435 tons, cleared in the 
 foreign trade. The number of vessels belonging to 
 the district in 1882 was 4,002, with an aggregate 
 tonnage of 945,646, viz.: 2,444 sailing vessels of 
 518,693 tons, 954 steamers of 325,427 tons, 172 canal- 
 boats of 16.988 tons, and 432 barges of 88,538 tons. 
 The number of vessels built in the district in 1882 
 was 158, with an aggregate tonnage of 19,729. — The 
 domestic trade of N.Y. is immense, by far exceeding 
 the foreign, but on this only partial, and not always 
 reliable, information is obtainable. It is carried on by 
 means of the numerous lines of railroads, the Hudson 
 R., the Erie Canal, and the coasting steamers. The 
 
 demand of the whole country for foreign goods and 
 most of the products of domestic manuf. is, to a 
 great extent, supplied by the N.Y. importers, jobbers, 
 and commission merchants. There are several power- 
 ful organizations of business men to develop and 
 regulate the foreign and domestic trade of the port, 
 foremost among which are the chamber of commerce 
 whose beneficial influence is felt far beyond the limits 
 of the city, the board of trade and transportation, the 
 produce exchange, the cotton exchange, etc. — The 
 manuf. of N.Y. are only inferior to its mercantile 
 interests ; they are of considerable importance and 
 very varied (see New York State). — The city had 162 
 banks and banking-houses in 1882 (national 48, State 
 24, savings 24, private 66). A clearing-house was 
 organized in 1853 to faciliate the transaction of busi- 
 ness and the settlement of accounts between its 
 members. Its transactions during the year 1882 were 
 exchange, $46,552,846,161 ; balances, $1,595,000,245. 
 — N.Y. was first settled by a Dutch colony in 1614. 
 At the end of that year the future metropolis consisted 
 of 4 houses and a small fort on the site ot the 
 present Bowling Green, and was known as New 
 Amsterdam. In 1644 (pop. 1,000) it was surrendered 
 to the British, and passing into the hands of the 
 Duke of YorkjWasthenceforwardcalled New York. In 
 1696 Trinity church was founded. Pop. in 1700, 6,000;

 Indians of Northern Idaho, belonging to what is 
 called the Sahaptin stock, remarkable for certain 
 grammatical peculiarities in their languages. They 
 occupy a reservation of 1.344,000 acres, to which they 
 were removed from Oreg. and Wash. T., and which 
 is said to contain the best land in that section. They 
 are geuerally friendly to the whites, but there are 
 several hundred who are discontented and refuse

 by tributaries of the Clearwater and Salmon Rs. The 
 surface is generally rugged and mountainous. The 
 valley of Clearwater contains extensive arable lands, 
 and Camas prairie in the N.W. corner is very fertile. 
 Gold is mined to some extent. The chief prod, in 1880 
 were 133,897bush. of oats, and 148,422 of wheat, Cap.,

 Niag'ara [Indian " thunder of water"], If. Y, a 
 celebrated river, forming the boundary between the 
 State of New York and the province of Ontario, 
 Canada, and connecting Lake Erie with Lake On- 
 tario, is 36 m. long, and has a total fall of 333 ft. It 
 is navigable in its upper course from its issue from 
 Lake. Erie to the commencement of the rapids at 
 Niagara Falls, a distance of 16 m. during which its 
 fall is only 20 ft.; and in its lower course from Lew- 
 
NIA

 iston to Lake Ontario, a distance of abt. 8 m. during 
 which its fall is only 3 ft. Along its middle course^ 
 which contains the celebrated Niagara Falls and is 
 crossed by two suspension bridges, on the Canadian 
 side is the Welland Canal, through which the navi- 
 gation interrupted by the rapids and falls of the mid- 
 dle course of the river is carried on. On issuing from 
 Lake Erie the river is jf m. broad ; but as it flows on 
 it becomes several miles wide, making room for a 
 number of islands, the largest of which, Grand Is- 
 land, is 12 m. long, and from 2 to 7 broad, which 
 reaches within li m. of the falls, the river is contrac- 
 ted to a breadth of 2£ m. and grows narrower as it 
 proceeds, and before it makes the great leap it de- 
 scends 52 ft. over a series of rapids. At the edge of 
 the cataract the width of the river is abt. 4,750 ft., but 
 the edge itself does not form one straight line. First, 
 it is broken by Goat Island, which, abt. 1,000 ft. wide 
 and 2,000 ft. long, rises 40 ft. above the water and ex- 
 tends out to the very brink, thus dividing the fall in- 
 to two. Next, it forms between Goat Island and the 
 Canadian shore a large curve, bent inward, which, 
 resembling a horse-shoe, gives this part of the fall 
 the name of the Horse-shoe Fall. The height of the 
 cataract is 164 ft. on the American side of Goat Is- 
 land and 150 on the Canadian. From the foot of the 
 fall to Lewiston, a distance of 7 miles after which it 
 enters a level region, the river descends 104 ft. run- 
 ning through a deep and narrow gorge, whose width 
 varies from 200 to 400 ft. and whose sides rise almost 
 perpendicularly, so that access to the river can be 
 had only by stairways. About one-eighth of a mile be- 
 low the falls a suspension bridge is thrown across 
 the river, 190 ft. above the water, 1,190 ft. from cliff 
 to cliff and 1,268 ft. from tower to tower ; it was fin- 
 ished in 1869, and presents a magnificent view of the 
 falls. In 1855 another suspension bridge was con- 
 structed across the river abt. 2 miles below the falls, 
 245 ft. above the water and 821 ft. from tower to tow- 
 er. Among the great cataracts of the globe, that of 
 Niagara stands preeminent for the enormous volume 
 of water that is carried over so high a precipice. 
 There are many cataracts which descend from greater 
 heights, but the sublimity of Niagara is in the vast 
 power displayed by a mighty current descending 
 down the long rapids, and finally plunging in one 
 unbroken sheet into the deep abyss below. In the 
 deep chasm below the fall, the current, contracted in 
 width to less than 1,000 ft. is tossed tumultuously 
 about, and forms great whirlpools and eddies as it is 
 borne along its rapidly descending bed. The gorge 
 through which the river flows below the falls, bears 
 evidence of having been excavated by the river itself. 
 In the short period, hardly reaching back into the 
 last century, during which observations other than 
 those of passing travelers have been made and pre- 
 served, changes have taken place by the falling down 
 of masses of rock, the effect of which has been to 
 cause a slight recession of the cataract, and extend 
 the gorge to the same amount upward toward Lake 
 Erie. Thus in 1818 great fragments descended at the 
 American fall, in 1838 at the Horse-shoe fall, and since 
 1855 several others, which have materially changed 
 the aspect of the falls.

 North Carolina, a S.E. State, bounded N. 
 by Virginia, E. by the Atlantic Ocean, S. by South 
 Carolina, and W. by Tennessee. It is included nearlv 
 between lat. 34° and 36* 30' N., and lat. 75° 30' and 
 84° 30' W. Its extreme length from E. to W. is 503J 
 m.; average breadth 100 m.; extreme breadth 187J 
 m. ; area, 48,580 m. Its topography may be described 
 as a vast declivity, sloping down from the summits 
 of the Smoky Mts., an altitude of nearly 7,000 ft., to 
 the level of the ocean. The Smoky Mts. constitute 
 a part of the great Appalachian chain, which here 
 attains its greatest height. This slope is made up of 
 3 wide extended terraces ; the 1st a high mountain 
 plateau, distinguished as the Western or Mountain 
 section ; the 2d, a submontane plateau, distinguished 
 as the Middle section, of which the Western half is 
 further distinguished as the Piedmont section ; the 
 3d, the Atlantic plain, distinguished as the Low 
 Country or Eastern section, and that part from the 
 head of the tides downward as the Tide-water section. 
 The State is traversed by two ranges of mountains. 
 The 1st is the Blue Ridge, a grand and lofty chain, 
 which runs in a direction N.E. and S.W. entirely 
 across the State. The principal summits are Clina- 
 man's Peak (6,941 ft. high), Buckley's Peak (6,775 
 ft.), Mt. Mitchell (6,732 ft.), and Roan Mt. (6,306 ft.). 
 The 2d, the Occoueeche and Uwharrie Mts., a range 
 of much inferior elevation, crosses the State iu a 
 parallel direction near its centre. The principal rivers 
 are the Chowan, Roanoke, Tar, Neuse, Cape Fear, 
 and Yadkin. — The temperature of the lowlands is 
 hot and humid, with a tendency to bilious diseases, 
 but in the interior, particularly in the Piedmont and 
 mountain section, the air is "singularly pure, dry, 
 and elastic. The heat of the summer day is suc- 
 ceeded by cool, refreshing evenings and nights ; the 
 winters, except at rare intervals, are mild and genial. 
 The average rainfall throughout the State is 53 inches. 
 Sandy and barren islands stretch along the 400 m. of 
 coast, and shoals extend far out to sea, making the 
 N.C. coast a terror to all mariners. Cape Hatteras is 
 the extreme headland. Cape Lookout and Cape Fear 
 are less extended ; but their names do no injustice to 
 their dangerous character. Back of the sandy islands 
 are extensive sounds and deep bays, the principal of 
 which are Pamlico, Albemarle, and Currituck Sounds. 
 More than two millions of acres of swamp land in 
 the east are covered with a growth of cedar and 
 cypress, very valuable for timber. The" piney woods" 
 extend across the State in a belt from 30 to 80 m. 
 wide. Here grows to its perfection the long-leaved 
 yellow pine, or turpentine tree. Hard woods predomi- 
 nate in the western section. — The swamp lands, when 
 drained, produce very abundant crops. Much worn- 
 out land is seen in the great midland district; but 
 with sufficient fertilization it can be profitably culti- 
 vated. The mountain region is well adapted for 
 grazing. A semi-tropical climate is indicated in the 
 vegetation of the S.E. Palmetto trees are found as 
 far N. as Cape Hatteras. The fig and pomegranate 
 attain the dimensions of large trees. According to the 
 census of 1880 there were in N.C. 6,481,191 acres of 
 improved and 15,882,367 of unimproved land. The 
 principal prod, for the year 1880 were 27,959,894 bush, 
 of corn, 3,385,670 of wheat, 3,830,622 of barley, 284,993

 of rye, 45.209 of buckwheat, 26,986,217 lbs. of tobacco, 
 5,609,19l'lbs. of rice, and 389,616 bales of cotton. In 
 1880 the number of live stock on farms were lcSS.&^fi 
 horses, 81,871 mules, 50,188 working oxen, 232,133 
 milch cows, 375,105 other cattle, 461,638 sheep, and 
 1,453,541 hogs. The culture of the vine is now an es- 
 tablished industry, and is being prosecuted with ex- 
 cellent results. — The mineral resources of N.C. are 
 very great, but thus far have not been fully developed. 
 Gold occurs in numerous localities of the Middle and 
 Piedmont countiies, and has been mined for the last 
 30 years with increasing success. The Gold Hill mines, 
 in Rowan co., have yielded abt. §2,000,000 since they 
 were first opened, 20 years ago. In 1803 a piece of gold 
 weighing 28 lbs. was found in the Red Mine of Cabar- 
 rus co. Far more important than the precious metals, 
 however, are iron and coal, which abound in the val- 
 leys of the Deep and Dan Rs. Coal measures, exceed- 
 ing 30 m. in length, have been discovered in Chat- 
 ham and Moore cos., and others in Stokes and Rock- 
 ingham cos. The coal is bituminous and of good 
 quality. Graphite is found in Wake co. Copper ore 
 is largely mined in Guilford co. Extensive mica mines 
 are worked with great profit. In Davidson co. is an 
 important zinc mine, containing also gold and silver 
 quartz. — The total number of manuf. establishments 
 in 1880 were 3,802, employing 18,109 hands ; capital 
 invested, §13,045,639 ; wages paid during the year, 
 $2,740,768 ; value of materials, §13,090,937; of pro- 
 ducts, §20,095,037. Cotton manuf. has been long an 
 established business in N.C. There were in 1883 64 
 mills operating 2,858 looms and 156,030 spindles. The 
 State stands second in the manufacture of smoking 
 tobacco and fourth in manufacture of plug tobacco. 
 In 1881 it manufactured 4,379,565 pounds of the 
 former and 6,405,585 of the latter. There are 4 paper- 
 mills, all water power, with a daily capacity of 8 tons 
 of paper. There are also factories for the manuf. 
 of agricultural implements, furniture and wood- 
 work, sewing machines, &c. For a long period N.C. 
 has been the principal source of supply for tar, pitch 
 and turpentine. The products for the year 1880 were 
 663,907 barrels of rosin, and 6,179,200 galls, of spirits 
 of turpentine. The imports, exports, and shipping of 
 the State are given under the names of the 4 custom 
 districts, Albemarle, Beaufort, Pamlico, and Wil- 
 mington. There were in 1882 1,619 m. of railroad in 
 operation. — In 1880, the number of children of school 
 age was 426,189 of whom 154,841 were colored; the 
 average attendance were 150,788, of whom 56,837 col- 
 ored. The number of public schools were 3,342 ; of 
 teachers 3,371. The total expenditure was §337,541. 
 The principal higher institution is the N.C. uni- 
 versity, at Chapel Hill (founded in 1795). The 
 cities are Charlotte, Fayetteville, New Berne, 
 Raleigh (the cap.), and Wilmington (the chief sea- 
 port and largest city). — The legislature consists of a 
 senate of 50 members and a house of representatives 
 of 120 members, elected for 2 years ; sessions are held 
 biennially. The governor (salary §4,000) and other 
 executive officers are chosen for 4 years. Appellate 
 jurisdiction is exercised by the supremecourt, which 
 consists of 5 judges. All judges are electpd for 8 
 years. N. C. sends 9 representatives to congress and 
 ; has 11 electoral votes. In 1881 the State debt was §5,- 
 006.616; the receipts into the treasury were §553.029; 
 disbursements, §496,720; assessed value of real estate, 
 §101,799,424 ; of personal property, §54,468,817.— In 
 1584 Queen Elizabeth granted letters patent to Sir 
 Walter Raleigh " for the discovering and planting of 
 new lands and countries." The first explorers landed 
 on Roanoke Island July 4 (O. S.) of that year. The 
 division between N. an>1 S.C. was made in 1697. War 
 was wased with the Tuscaroras until 1713. "The 
 first blood for liberty" was shed at Alamance, May, 
 1771. The battle of Guilford Court-House, March 15, 
 17S1, drove the invading British army under Corn- 
 
 wallis from N.C. In 1789 the constitution of the U. 
 States, which had been rejected in 1788, was adopted. 
 An ordinance of secession was passed, and the con- 
 stitution of the Confederate States was adopted May 
 21, 1861. Hostilities were closed by the surrender of 
 Gen. Johnston's army April 26,1865. The present 
 constitution was ratified in 1868. Pop. in 1790, 393,-

 Ohio, a river which from the extent of the area 
 drained by its waters, the large facilities which it af- 
 fords to internal commerce, and its relative position 
 in the heart of the country, connecting the largest 
 maritime States with the west, is second in import- 
 ance only to the Mississippi. It is the great N.E. trib- 
 utary of the " Father of Waters. 1 ' Physically consid- 
 ered, the River Alleghany, which rises in Potter CO., 
 Pa., on the W. slope of the Alleghany Mts., and 
 which is navigable for boats of 100 tons for 270 m. 
 above Pittsburgh, is one river with the Ohio, although 
 it does not receive this name until it forms a junction 
 with the Monongahela, another large tributary of the 
 Ohio, coming down from the Allesrhanies in the op- 
 posite direction. This river, though a less important 
 .stream than the Alleghany, is ahout equal to it in 
 width at their confluence, and is navigable at a good 
 stage of water, for boats of a large size for abt. 100 
 m. from its mouth. The Ohio proper is formed by the 
 confluence of these two rivers at Pittsburgh, where 
 the elevation is 680 ft. above tide water, and 380 ft. 
 above the point of junction with the Mississippi. Its 
 average descent is not quite five inches to the mile. 
 Immediately below the junction the Ohio is 600 yards 
 wide, and is a placid and beautiful stream. The 
 French called it La Belle Riviere, the beautiful river. 
 Its name, however, according to Heckewelder, is an 
 abbreviation of the Indian word Ohiopekhanne, mean- 
 ing a very white stream and alluding probably to 
 
 the white caps with which its gentle surface is cov- 
 ered in a high wind. The total length of the Ohio is 
 975 m.; but from Pittsburgh to the mouth of the river 
 in a straight line it is less than three-fifths of that, 
 distance. Its course till it passes out of Pennsylvania 
 is N.N.W. to Beaver, and thence W.S.W. to the line 
 of the State of Ohio. It then flows S. and S.W. be- 
 tween Ohio and West Virginia, passing Wheeliug, 86, 
 in. below Pittsburgh. The general course of the river 
 is W.S.W. After passing betweeu Ohio and West 
 Virginia, it borders the whole length of Kentucky, 
 separating that State from Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois 
 on the north. The width of the upper third of the 
 river, between Pittsburgh and Point Pleasant, is 1,- 
 000 ft. at low water and 1,200 ft. at high water, 
 thence gradually increasing till near the mouth, 
 where, it is 3,000 ft. Its depth at different seasons is 
 very fluctuating, the range between high and low wat- 
 er being often 50 and sometimes 60 ft. and the usual 
 range throughout the entire river is 45 ft. During 
 portions of the summer and in the autumn, when the 
 water is low, the larger steamboats ascend no further 
 than Wheeling, and even below this point they pass 
 with difficulty, or are arrested by the sand bars, which, 
 with the low sandy islands, called towheads, badly 
 obstruct the navigation. At the lowest stage, gener- 
 ally in August and September, the river may be ford- 
 ed at several places above Cincinnati. In the winter 
 it is often frozen over, and for several weeks floating 
 ice prevents its navigation. The rate of its current 
 varies with the stage of the water from 1 to 3 m. an 
 hour. The only rapids are at Louisville, and these are 
 not insurmountable to all the steamboats. In 24 m. 
 the fall is abt. 27 ft. A canal was long since construct- 
 ed past these rapids at Louisville, through which 
 steamers of 3,000 tons may pass. The country bor- 
 dering the Ohio is for the most part a thriving agri- 
 cultural region, and many prosperous towns and 
 cities have grown up within the present century on 
 its banks. Manufactures are encouraged by the mines 
 of coal and iron ore that abound in the country 
 traversed by this river and its tributaries, and the 
 prod, of these add largely to the immense transpor- 
 tation carried on by the boats. The tributaries of the 
 Ohio from both sides are numerous, and many of 
 them are important rivers, as the Muskingum and 
 Miami of Ohio, the Wabash of Indiana and Illinois, 
 and the Sandy, Licking, Kentucky, Cumberland, 
 Green, and Tennessee of Kentucky. The Ohio was 
 discovered in 1680 by the French under LaSille. 
 — a central State, bounded N. by Mich, and Lake 
 Erie, E. by Pa. and W.Va., S. by W.Va. and Ky., 
 and W. by Indiana. It is situated between lat. 38° 
 27' and 41° and 57' N., and Ion. 80° 34' and 84° 49' W., 
 extreme length 228 m., breadth 220 m.; area, 40,760) 
 sq. m. This State comprises about one-third of the 
 region sloping from the Alleghanies in Pennsylvania 
 down to the Mississippi. It possesses no very eleva- 
 ted hill ranges, but consists almost wholly of a table' 
 land elevated from 600 to 1,000 ft. above sea-level;: 
 the central position of the State being the highest. 
 This, also, which is its least fertile portion, is in parts- 
 interspersed with swamps and marshes. The declivity, 
 toward Lake Erie is much more abrupt than the &> 
 slope of the State, and the country is here also in 
 parts marshy ; that portion of the surface- which de- 
 clines towards the Ohio and is the most extensive, is 
 diversified with hills and valleys, and, on: the- whole, 
 fully nine-tenths of the surface are susceptible of 
 cultivation, nearly three-fourths being pre-eminently 
 fertile. The Ohio R. which gives namB'to the State,, 
 washes half of its E. and its entire S. border. The 
 Muskingum, the largest river which flows entirely in' 
 this State, is formed by the junction of the Tusca- 
 rawas and Walhonding Rs., and enters the Ohio at 
 Marietta. It is navigable for boats 100 m. The Sci- 
 oto, the second R. in magnitude, flowing entirely

 within the State, is abt. 200 m. long, and enters the 
 Ohio at Portsmouth. lis largest branch is the Whet- 
 stone, or Olentangy, which joins it immediately 
 above Columbus. It is navigable for boats 130 m. 
 The Great Miami, a rapid river In the VV. part of the 
 State, is 100 m. long, anil enters the Ohio in the S.W. 
 corner of the State. The Little Miami has a course 
 of 70 m. and enters the Ohio 7 m. above Cincinnati. 
 The Maumee, 100 in. long, rises in Indiana, runs 
 through the N.W. part of the State, and enters Lake 
 Erie at Maumee Bay. It is navigable for steamboats 
 to Perrysburg, 18 m. from the lake, and above the 
 rapids is boatable for a considerable distance. The 
 Sandusky rises in the N. part of the State, and, after 
 a course of abt. 80 m., enters Sandusky Bay, and 
 thence into Lake Erie. The Cuyahoga rises in the 
 N. part of the State, and after a curved course of 60 
 m. enters Lake Erie at Cleveland. It has a number 
 of falls, which furnish valuable mill-seats. Besides 
 these, there are Huron, Vermilion, Black, (jrand, 
 and Ashtabula Rs., which enter Lake Erie. The geo- 
 logical formations are nearly all secondary, compris- 
 ing limestone, lias, saliferous and ferriferous rocks, 
 sandstone, gray wacke, etc., in horizontal strata. The 
 great bituminous coal-field of Pennsylvania and Vir- 
 ginia projects into the E. and S.E. parts of the State, 
 among the W. foot-hills proper of the Alleghany 
 mountain system, its W. boundary extending from 
 the N.E. corner of Trumbull co., through the cos. of 
 Portage, Wayne, Knox, Licking, and Fairfield, to the 
 mouth of the Scioto. The coal-fields cover, in the ag- 
 gregate, an estimated superficies of 12,000 sq. m. ex- 
 tending through 20 cos., and embrace nearly one- 
 third of the area of the entire State. The quantity of 
 stove coal mined during the year 1882 were 148,903,- 
 635 bush, valued at $6,998,832. Salt springs are 
 numerous within the carboniferous limits, and large 
 quantities of this mineral are manufactured for 
 market. The prod, for 1882 was 1,976,169 bushels 
 valued at $201,143. Iron is found in abundance be- 
 tween the Licking and Muskingum Rs., near Zanes- 
 ville, and in the Ohio R. near the S.W. corner of 
 Adams eo., and more particularly in the cos. of Law- 
 rence, Gallia, Jackson, Meigs, 'Vinton, Athens, Hock- 
 iing, Perry, and Licking. The ore obtained in some 
 of these countries is of very superior quality, being 
 suited to the finer class of eastings ; it covers an 
 area of abt. 1,200 sq. m., and has created a very ex- 
 tensive iron interest in the S. part of the State. The 
 ores chiefly used in the extensive iron manufacture 
 of the N. are chiefly obtained from the Lake Super- 
 ior region. In 1832 588,644 tons of iron were mined 
 in Ohio, and 237,774 tons were received from other 
 States. Petroleum also forms a somewhat important 
 mineral product of the S.E. section of the State ; 
 1,161,303 gallons were produced in 1882. Clay, in all 
 its forms, is found in vast quantities, as also carbon- 
 ate of lime. Hydraulic cement, in large deposits, is 
 known to exist, though it has, as yet, not been made 
 developable. Large quantities of building stone and 
 grindstones are quarried in the N. part of the State, 
 and contribute pretty largely to the industrial econo- 
 my of the commonwealth. — The climate of N.Ohio 
 is of course coldei in winter than 'he S. and central 
 divisions, yet even here severe weather is not usual. 
 Though the changes in temperature are great and 
 rapid, the constantly varying winds prevent lrng- 
 continued extremes. The extremes of temperature 
 at Marietta during 28 years were 22° below zero and 
 99° above. During a series of years the mean tempera- 
 ture at Cleveland was 49.77°; at Marietta, 51.86°; at 
 Cincinnati, 54.67°. The annual rainfall is 33.38 inches 
 at Cincinnati, and 38.43 inches at Cleveland. — The 
 soil of this State is, generally speaking, of the high- 
 test fertility, free from rock or stone, and readily 
 cultivated. There is but a small proportion of the 
 surface unavailable for agricultural production of 
 
 some sort, or absolutely unfitted for tillage. Tin 
 valleys of the livers, and, particularly, of the two 
 Miamis, the Scioto, the Maumee, and their feeders, 
 contain the most fertile and valuable soils. Indeed, 
 it might be difficult to find anywhere lands equalling 
 these in extent, surpassing them in the elements of 
 fertility, or in agricultural capacity. The Scioto and 
 Miami bottoms contain each an area of abt. 3,300,000 
 acres, and together comprise more than one-fourth 
 of the superficies of the whole State. The basin of 
 the Muskingum, though less in extent, has much 
 excellent land, while the Maumee bottoms in the N. 
 W., when once thoroughly drained, will be found 
 equal to any in fecundity, being for the most part 
 deep, black mould, with just sufficient sand inter- 
 mixed to constitute soils of the very highest fertility. 
 Of such a character is the " Black Swamp," in the 
 N.W. of the State, tracts of which have of late years 
 become sufficiently dry for cultivation, and, it is 
 claimed, are the best corn and grass lands. The lake 
 shores of Erie are of superior adaptation to the 
 growth of fruits, on account of their exemption 
 from pernicious frosts. The peach, 60 liable to fail 
 in most of the N. States, finds here a congenial at- 
 mosphere, while the culture of the grape is, perhaps, 
 more successful than in any other part of the State ; 
 in fact, some of the islands of the lake are celebrated 
 for their vinous products. The following table, 
 taken from the report of the Secretary of State, shows 
 the quantity and value of the agricultural prod, of 
 Ohio for the year 1881 : —

 Ohio ranks fifth among the States in respect of 
 manufacturing industry. It had in 1880, according 
 to the census of that year, 20,699 manuf. estab- 
 lishments, employing 183,609 hands ; capital in- 
 vested, $188,939,614 ; wages paid during the year, 
 $62,103,800; value of materials, $215,334,258; value 
 of products, $348,298,390. Cotton yarn, cotton and

 are the principal items. Timber, grain, flour, fibre, 
 cattle, tobacco, cured meats, and spirits form the 
 leading articles of exportation. The bulk of the 
 great commercial and manufacturing interests cen- 
 tres in Cincinnati. There are in the State 3 customs 
 districts, Miami, Sandusky, and Cuyahoga, whose 
 ports of entry are Toledo, Sandusky, and Cleveland 
 (which see for imports, exports, and maritime statis- 
 tics). The four great trunk lines of railroad from the 
 Atlantic cities to the Mississippi cross this State. In 
 1842 the first mile of railroad was completed ; in 1882 
 the statistics were : Miles of railroad, 6,663 ; total 
 cost, §361,932,992; total stock and debt, §490,361,079; 
 gross earnings, §46,759,399 ; net earnings, §14,695,745. 
 Of navigable canals the State has 796 m., including 
 feeders and side-cuts. These were constructed be- 
 tween the years 1825 and 1844, at a total cost of §14,- 
 688,667. The Ohio and Erie canal, connecting the 
 river at Portsmouth with the lake at Cleveland, is 
 309 m. in length and cost §4,695,204. The Miami and 
 Erie, connecting Toledo with Cincinnati, extends 
 for 250 m. and was constructed at a cost (with im- 
 provements and repairs) of §7,463,694. The State al- 
 so contains more than 6,000 m. of turnpikes and 
 plank roads. — " Ohio has made and now maintains 
 magnificent provision for universal education. The 
 State commissioner of schools reports the expendi- 
 tures for the public schools of Ohio for 1881*to be 
 §8,335,475. The high schools of townships, villages 
 and cities carry forward a liberal education, while 
 universities, colleges, and professional schools, sev- 
 eral of which are practically free, supplement and 
 crown the system. Ohio agricultural and mechani- 
 cal college, at Columbus, possesses property valued 
 at §1,000,000. It confers the degrees of bachelor 
 of arts, bachelorof sciences, and civil engineer. Ohio 
 has no State normal school ; but several institutions 
 not receiving public funds are maintained for the 
 training of teachers. Chief among them are the 
 National normal school, in Lebanon, the Northwest- 
 ern Ohio, the Ada, the Northwestern in Fostoria, 
 the Ohio Central in Washington, the Western re- 
 serve in Milan, the McNeeley in Hopedale, the Or- 
 well normal institute in Orwell, and the normal 
 school in Cincinnati. The State penitentiary, erected 
 in 1813, contained 1,356 prisoners in 1882. The deaf 
 and dumb asylum, opened in 1869, was constructed 
 at a cost of §625,000. Both the above institutions, to- 
 gether with the asylums for the deaf and dumb, 
 the blind and the idiotic, and the Central Ohio lu- 
 natic asylum, are located at Columbus. Other asy- 
 lums for the insane have been opened at Newbury, 
 Dayton, Athens, Longview and Toledo, of which the 
 first three are wholly "and the last two partially sup- 
 ported by the State. Upwards of 1,100 patients were 
 sent to these hospitals for the insane during the year 
 1882. An industrial school for girls has been estab- 
 lished at White Sulphur Springs", and a reform school 
 for hoys was opened near Lancaster in 1857. The 
 latter institution has a farm of 1,170 acres.— The State 
 is divided into 88 cos., viz.: Adams. Allen, Ashland, 
 Ashtabula, Athens, Auglaize, Belmont, Brown, But- 
 ler, Carroll, Champaign, Clarke, Clermont, Clinton, 
 Columbiana, Coshocton, Crawford. Cuyahoga, Darke,

 Springfield, Steubenville, Tiffin, Toledo, Urbana, 
 Warren, Wooster, Xenia, Youngstown, and Zanes- 
 villc. — The present constitution was adopted in 1851. 
 The legislative authority is vested in a general as- 
 sembly, consisting of 36 senators and 105 lepresentu- 
 tives. Biennial sessions are held. The governor 
 (salary §4,000) and most of the executive officers are 
 elected for 2 years. The supreme court consists of 5 
 judges, who receive §3,000 salary each. Courts of 
 common pleas and also probate courts arc held in 
 each of the 88 counties. All judges are elected by 
 the people. The general elections are held annually 
 on the 2d Tuesday of October. Ohio sends 21 repre- 
 sentatives to congress, and has 23 electoral votes. 
 The funded public debt of the State in 18S2 was 
 §5,201,665; the receipts into the treasury during 
 the year were §5,768,975 ; disbursements, £5,630,219. 
 The valuation of taxable prop, were §1 ,634.910, 734( real 
 §1,116,681,655; personal §518.229,079).— The country 
 was first explored by the French, the discoveries of 
 La Salle along the Ohio R. dating from abt. 1680. 
 Long before that time the greater part of what now 
 constitutes the State of Ohio was inhabited by tribes 
 of Indians, superior in intelligence and civilization, 
 and probably also in religious knowledge and in 
 military skill, to the »borigines found here by the 
 French, and later by English settlers. Their mounds 
 and fortifications, whether intended for defence or 
 for burial places, were constructed with an artistic 
 skill, to which the Indians of the last two or three 
 ceuturies can lay no claim. When the French sol- 
 diers passed through the country, they found there 
 tribes of Indians differing in no respect from those of 
 New York or Pennsylvania, though perhaps they 
 were not so warlike or revengeful as their neighbors 
 in the adjacent States. There do not seem to have 
 been any white settlers within the limits of the State 
 previous to April, 1788, when a colony from New 
 England founded Marietta. Ohio was admitted into 
 the Union as the 17th State on Feb. 19th, 1803. Pop.

 Ontario, one of the chain of the great Ameri- 
 can lakes, lying between the State of New York and 
 Canada. This is the easternmost and smallest in ex- 
 tent of the series. It is 190 m. long, with an average 
 width of 40 m. Its greatest width is 55 m. Its circum- 
 ference is 480 m. It is very deep in every part, vary- 
 ing from 500 to 600 ft. so that its bottom is consider- 
 ably below the surface of the Atlantic. Its surface is 
 334 ft. below that of Lake Erie, from which, through 
 the Niagara R., or strait, it receives the waters of all 
 the great upper lakes, at its W. end. Its outlet, at its 
 N.E. extremity, is the river St. Lawrence. A large 
 number of creeks and rivers enter the Lake on the S. 
 side, the principal of which are the Genesee, Oswego, 
 • and Black Rs. The principal bays are those of Quinte 
 and Burlington, in Canada; and Chaumont, Gerondi- 
 quot, and Braddock's, on the American shore. The 
 shores of this lake are generally rather low, and in 
 " some places marshy ; in other parts, however, they 
 are elevated, and the land is generally good. The 
 most important places in New York on the lake, or 
 near the mouth of the streams which flow into it, are 
 Lewiston on the Niagara R., Rochester on the Gene- 
 see, Oswego at the mouth of the Oswego R. and Sack- 
 ett's Harbor near the foot of the lake. "On the Canada 
 shore, are Toronto, Kingston, and Hamilton. This 
 lake is subject to violent storms and heavy swells ; 
 but it is safely navigated by steamboats, which are 
 large and stanchly built, and by other vessels. By the 
 Welland Canal of Canada, which connects this lake 
 with Lake Erie on the W. vessels are carried around 
 the Falls of Niagara, and also around the rapids in 
 the upper part of the St. Lawrence. It is connected 
 with the Eric Canal and the Hudson R., by a canal 
 from Oswego ; and much valuable trade to and from 
 
 New York passes by this channel through the lake. 
 Ontario has such a depth of water that even its har- 
 bors are seldom closed or much obstructed by ice. 
 Daily lines of steamboats run through the lake from 
 Ogdensburg, on the river St. Lawrence, to Lewiston, 
 touching at all the intermediate ports.

 York. The city stands on rolling ground 190 ft. 
 above tide-water, and is very picturesquely located. 
 Its streets are laid out at right angles, and the more 
 important ones are paved with " Telford." The chief 
 industry of Orauge is hatting, which is carried on to 
 a large extent. Llewellyn Park its most attractive 
 feature, extends from the base to the brow of. 
 Orange Mountain, comprising 750 acres, studded 
 with elegant residences and laid out in handsome 
 grounds kept in common. Orange contains an or- 
 phan asylum, a hospital and dispensary, 28 school 
 organizations, 1 nat. aud 2 savins; banks, 1 semi-wkly 
 and 2 wkly papers, a well-organized city government, 
 including a police and paid Are department. Horse- 
 cars connect it with Newark, 3J m. distant. Orange 
 was made a city in 1872. Pop. 13,207. 
 
 ©range, N. Y, a S.E. co., bordered S.W. by N.

 gunkjMts. cross the N.W. corner, and a range of pre- 
 cipitous heights, having an elevation of from 1,000 to 
 1,500 ft. and known as the Highlands, are toward the 
 S.E. on the Hudson R. The remainder of the surface 
 is chiefly rolling upland. It is noted for its excellent 
 grazing and fine dairy produce, nearly half the im- 
 proved land being in pasture. The chief prod, in 1880

 Oreg'OM, a N.W. State, bounded N. by Wash., 
 E. by Idaho, S. by Nev. and Cal. and W. by the 
 Pacific Ocean. It is situated between lat. 42° and 46° 
 20' N. and Ion. 116° 40' and 124° 35' W. The length 
 from E. to W. is 360 m. the breadth from N. to S. 
 275 m.; area, 94,560 sq. m. The Cascade Mts. stretch 
 across the State N. and S., at a distance of abt. 110 
 m. from the Pacific. Numerous barren snow-capped 
 peaks, of volcanic origin, rise from them to great, 
 heights, of which the most elevated are Mount Hood 
 (11,025 ft.), Mts. Jefferson, Thielseu, Scott, Pitt, and 
 the Three Sisters. The Cascade Range divides Oreg., 
 into two distinct sections, known asE. and W. Oreg., 
 Of these the former contains by far the most ter- 
 ritory, but the latter is far more advanced in civili- 
 zation, and contains abt. nine-tenths of the present 
 pop. of the State. Another chain of mountains, the 
 Coast Range, extends, also N. and S., over W. Oreg., 
 at a distance varying from 40 to 70 m. from the Cas- 
 cade Mts., and proportionately nearer to the Pacific 
 coast. Its highest points are not more than 5,000 ft., 
 and its average height abt. 2,500 ft. above sea level. E. 
 Oreg., is subdivided, so to speak, into Middle Oreg. 
 and E. Oreg. proper, by the Blue Mts., a range with a 
 general N. and S. direction, at a distance of abt. 150 
 m. E. of the Cascade Mts. The Cascade Mts. and 
 the Coast Range divide the surface of W. Oreg. into 
 numerous valleys of varying extent, traversed by 
 more or less important water-courses. Its largest 
 rivers are the Columbia, which separates it on the 
 N. from Wash.; the Willamette, the largest tributary 
 of the Columbia ; Young and Lewis and Clark Rs., 
 also flow into the Columbia ; the Rogue, Coquille, 
 Umpqua, Siuslaw, Alseya, Siletz, and Nehalem, 
 emptying into the Pacific ; aud the Tualatin, Clack- 
 amas, Yamhill, Mollala, Santiam, Luckimute, Mary, 
 and Long Tom Rs., all tributaries of the Willamette, 
 which itself is formed by three separate streams 
 known as McKenzie's, Middle and Coast Forks. The 
 principal watercourses of Middle Oreg. are the Des 
 Chutes, John Day's, and Umatilla Rs., and their 
 tributaries, the waters of which unite with the Co- 
 lumbia. The principal river of E. Oreg. proper is the 
 Snake R., which separates Oregon from Idaho, and 
 its main tributaries, the Grande Ronde, Powder, 
 Burnt, Malheur, and Owyhee Rs. There are numer- 
 ous lakes in S.E. Oreg., the principal of which are 
 Klamath, Goose, and Warner's Lakes, and Lake 
 Harney. Oreg. is not surpassed by any other part of 
 the U. States in attractiveness and variety of scenery. 
 
 Among its distinctive features are the numerous val- 
 leys formed, as already stated, by the several 
 mountain chaius, and the minor ranges issuing from 
 them. The principal ones in W. Oreg. are the Willa- 
 mette, Umpqua, and Rogue R. valleys. The Willa- 
 mette valley is by far the largest and most attractive 
 in every respect. It has been apparently named 
 "the garden of the Northwest." It is abt. 150 m. 
 in length, from 30 to 60 m. in width, and contains 
 abt. five millions of acres, nearly the whole of which 
 is of unusual productiveness, while only abt. one- 
 tenth is now under cultivation. Within it are the 
 most important towns of the State. The Umpqua 
 valley lies to the S. of the Callaporia Mts., and con- 
 tains abt 25,000 acres. The valley of the Rogue R., 
 containing abt. 2,400,000 acres, is bounded on the S. 
 by the Siskiyou Mt., which separates it from Cal. 
 These several valleys do not consist of wide plains, 
 but partake more of a gentle undulating character. 
 Hill and dale follow in succession, except in the 
 central part of the Willamette Valley, where there 
 is a perfectly level prairie of extraordinary fertility, 
 abt. 40 m. long and 30 m. wide. There are no great 
 agricultural valleys, like those of the W. part of the 
 State, in Middle Oreg. The country S. of the Colum- 
 bia, and between the Cascade and Blue Mts., for a 
 distance of 200 m. consists of a high rolling plain. 
 In E. Oreg. proper the valleys of the Grande Ronde 
 Powder, and Burnt Rs., resemble those of W. Oreg. 
 The Grande Ronde Valley is said to contain abt. 
 275,000 acres of tillable land. — The climate of W. 
 Oreg. is peculiarly mild and equable. The tempera- 
 ture is moderated in the hot as well as in the cold 
 seasons by the trade-winds of the Pacific, which 
 blow from the N.W. in summer, and from the S.W. 
 in winter. To the proximity of the Pacific Gulf 
 Stream to the Oreg. coast, much of the uniform 
 mildness and evenness of the temperature is also due. 
 As ascertained by observations made at the U. States 
 signal-service office in the State, the average tem- 
 perature in W. Oreg. is in spring 52°, in summer 07°, 
 in autumn 53°, and in winter 39°. The thermometer 
 seldom rises above 90° in the hottest days of summer 
 aud rarely falls below 20° in the winter. The differ- 
 ences of temperature marking the seasons in other 
 parts of the world being unknown ; it may be said, 
 indeed, that there are but two seasons in Oreg., 
 namely, a wet and a dry one. The wet or rainy sea- 
 son usually begins abt. the middle of Nov. and 
 lasts until early in May, with many intermissions of 
 fine weather for days, and even for weeks. The cli- 
 mate of Middle and E. Oreg. differs in this from 
 the W. part of the State, that there is much less 
 rainfall in the winter, and consequently more cold- 
 ness in the latter, and more dryness in the summer. 
 The mountains and a large part of the valleys of W. 
 Oreg. are covered with mighty forests, affording an 
 inexhaustible supply of hard and soft timber. — The 
 chief agricultural products for the year 1880 were as

 at the proper seasons ; Other varieties of fish are the 
 cod, halibut, sturgeon, herring, smelt, etc. Lobsters, 
 oysters, clams, and other shell fish are also common 
 The 6almou alone is caught to any considerable ex- 
 tent. According to the censes of 1880 there were on 
 the Columbia R., 29 canneries, having a capital of 
 $1,100,000; product,539,587 cases,and 25,900,176 lbs.,in 
 one-pound tins, value at §2,697,930 ; hands employed 
 6,500. — The mineral wealth of Oreg. is very great, but 
 as yet very imperfectly developed, mainly owing to 
 the want of capital. Gold was first discovered in 1851, 
 in the cos. of Jackson and Josephine, and gold- 
 mines have since opened in several other parts of the 
 State, but their distance from railroads, and the want 
 of machinery for working them, has, until now, 
 prevented their development on a scale commen- 
 surate with their richness. The gold product for the 
 year 1881 was $1,100,000. Large deposits of rich iron 
 ore and coal exist in nearly every part of the State. 
 — In 1880 there was in Oreg. 1080 manuf. estab- 
 lishments, employing 3,473 bauds ; capital invested 
 $6,312,056 ; wages paid during the year $1,667,046; 
 value of products, $70,931,232. Oreg. is divided into 
 3 customs districts, South Oreg. (port, of entry Coos- 
 bury), Oreg. (port of entry Astoria), aud Willamette 
 (port of entry, Portland). The value of all exports 
 in 1881 was $5,324,503 of imports $859,534. The entire 
 shipments from the Columbia R., for the year 
 amounted in value to fully $14,000,000. Adding to for- 
 eign exports shipments to San Francisco, consisting 
 of wheat, flour, wool, salmon, aud other products, 
 the value of which at a moderate estimate would be 
 $6,000,000, we have the total above indicated. Salmon 
 alone shipped to San Francisco reached a total of 
 222,000 cases, valued at $1,100,000. Wheat shipments 
 to that city were about 400,000 centals, valued at 
 $600,000 ; and flour shipments. 320,000 sacks, valued 
 at about $400,000. Of wool,26,762 hales were shipped, 
 having a value of about $1,400,000. Oats, flaxseed, 
 potatoes, hides, hops, etc., would make up another 
 half million of value. Of the vessels belonging in the 
 State 43 tonnage 8,386 were sailing vessels ; 106 ton- 
 nage 39,380 steamers ; and 7 tonnage 4,801 barges. 
 Twenty vessels, tonnage 2,135, were built in the 
 State during the year. Oreg. had in 1882, 689 m. of 
 railroad in operation. — The school statistics for 1880 
 were as follows : Public schools, 790; teachers, 999 ; 
 value of school property, $520,963 ; receipts for school 
 purposes, $351,673 ; numberof children of school age 
 (4 to 20 vears), 56.464 ; enrolled in public schools, 
 32,818. The institutions for higher education are : 
 Christian college, at Monmouth, which has classic, 
 scientific and preparatory departments ; Corvallis 
 college, connected with which is the State agricul- 
 tural school, having a property valued at $239,000 ; 
 McMinnville college ; Pacific university, having 
 classical, scientific and normal departments ; Willa- 
 mette university, which embraces a school of medi- 
 cine and a school of science ; and the university of 
 Oregon, at Eugene City. The penitehtary established 
 in 1854, 178 prisoners in 1882. An hospital for the 
 insane, and institutions for the blind and the deaf 
 and dumb are in successful operation. — The State is 
 divided into 23 cos., viz.: Baker, Benton, Clackamas, 
 Clatsep, Columbia, Coos, Curry, Douglas, Grant, 
 Jackson, Josephine, Lake, Lane, Linn. Marion, Mult- 
 nomah, Polk, Tilamook, Umatilla Union, Wasco, 
 Washington, Yam Hill. The principal towns and 
 cities are Salem (the cap.), Baker City, Corvallid, 
 Oregon City, Astoria, Eugeue, Albany, Portland, 
 East Portland and Dalles. — The constitution adopted 
 in 1857, provides that any male citizen of the U. 
 States, 21 years old, and six months a resident of 
 the State, may be a voter. The goverment is exercised

 Oswego, N.Y., a river which furnishes the 
 final outlet of the small lakes in the interior of the 
 State into Lake Ontario, into which it flows at the 
 city of Oswego, on the S. shore. The Oswego R. 
 flows directly from the outlet of the Oneida Lake, 
 and receives the waters of the other small lakes by 
 the Seneca R. into which their several outlets are 
 
 discharged, and which unites with it about 24 m. 
 from its mouth. Its course is about N.W. The lakes 
 with which it is connected are, besides the Oneida 
 Fish, Cross, Otsego, Onondaga, Ovvasco, Skeueate- 
 les, Cauaudaigua, Crooked, Cayuga, aud Seneca 
 Lakes. This river, for the greater part of its course, 
 serves the purpose of the Oswego Caual, connecting 
 the Erie Caual at Syracuse with Lake Ontario, the 
 falls of about 100 ft., 12 m, from its mouth, being 
 overcome by lockage. From the foot of these falls, 
 the caual is carried along upon the E. bank of the 
 river to its mouth, where it descends by locks to the 
 level of the lake. An immense water-power is fur- 
 nished at Oswego by this canal. 
 — a co., bounded N. W. by Lake Ontario, intersected 
 by Oswego R., and drained by a number of streams 
 falling into the lake ; area, 1,038 sq. m. It has a level 
 or undulating surface, and the soil, though generally 
 fertile, varies greatly in different parts. The chief 
 prod, in 1880 were 37,109 bush, of barley, 86,313 of 
 buckwheat, 615,105 of corn, 702,706 of oats, 35,771 of 
 rye, aud 88,691 of wheat ; butter, cheese, potatoes, 
 wool, hops, flax and hay, are also largely produced.

 Pennsylvania., one of the Middle States of 
 
 the Atlantic slope, and the second in wealth, manu- 
 factures and pop. It is bounded N. by Lake Erie 
 and New York, E. by Chautauqua co., N.Y., and 
 by Delaware R., which separates it from Delaware 
 co., N.Y., and from the State of New Jersey, S. 
 by Delaware, Maryland and West Virginia, and 
 W. by West Virginia and Ohio. It lies between 
 lat. 39° 43' and 42° 15' N.. and Ion. 74° 42' and 
 80° 36' W. Its greatest length from E. to W. is 
 302.34 m., and its greatest breadth from N. to S. 
 175.6 m. Its mean length is 280.39 m., mean breadth 
 158.05 m.; area, 44,985 sq. m. The surface of Pa. is 
 greatly diversified. There are few large tracts of 
 level land in the State. The S.E. cos., though they 
 can scarcely be denominated hilly, have an undulat- 
 ing and variable surface. South Mt. extends from 
 the Delaware below Eastou in a S.W. direction 
 through the State, to the borders of Maryland in 
 Adams co. Next to this, Kittatiny, or Blue Mt., ex- 
 tends from the Delaware Water Gap, and proceeds 
 S.W. with a regular elevation of from 700 to 1,200 ft. 
 above the level of the streams at its base, and termi- 
 nates at Paruell's knob, an elevated and picturesque 
 summit in Franklin co., near the S. border of the 
 State. N. of the Blue Mt., and between the Lehigh 
 and Susquehanna, is a wild, mountainous region, 
 where the anthracite coal is found. The valley of 
 Wyoming is enclosed by a chain of lofty mountains, 
 known by many local names. Between Kittatiny, or 
 Blue Mt., and the Alleghauy,is what has been called 
 the Appalachian chain, which consists of high and 
 nearly parallel ridges, sometimes approaching near to 
 each other, and at other times with valleys between 
 them of 20 m. in breadth, frequently divided by 
 smaller ridges. The Delaware R. washes the E. 
 border of the State, and is navigable for the 
 largest ships to Philadelphia. The Lehigh, after a 
 course of 75 m., enters it at Easton. The Schuylkill 
 is abt. 130 m. long, aud unites with the Delaware, 6 
 m. below Philadelphia. The Susquehanna R. rises in 
 the State of New York, and flows S. through this 
 State, and enters Chesapeake Bay in Maryland. It is 
 much obstructed by rapids and falls, but furnishes 
 a decending navigation for boats and rafts, in time 
 of high water. The Juniata rises among the Alle- 
 ghany Mts., and, after a course of 180 m., enters the 
 Susquehanna, 11 m. above Harrisburg. The Alle- 
 ghany R.,4C0m. long,from theN.W.,audthe Monou- 
 gahela, 300 m. long, from the S. unite at Pitts- 
 burg to form Ohio R., which latter flows a short dis- 
 tance in this State. Large tracts of mountain land 
 are covered with a dense growth of timber. Around 
 the headwaters of the W. branch of the Susquehanna 
 are primeval forests from which immense quantities 
 of lumber are cut every year. The white pine forest of 
 the Alleghany Mts. has been a source of great wealth 
 to the middle N. cos. Williamsport is the emporium 
 of this trade. — The climate of Pa., though healthy 
 and temperate, is variable and inconstant. The ex 
 tremes of temperature are from 20° below zero to 98° 
 above; but such extremes are of short continuance. 
 The mean temperature is from 44 to 52 degrees. 
 The soil of the State is generally good, and much 
 of it is of a superior quality; the richest tract is on the 
 S.E., on both sides of Susquehanna R. This part 
 of the State has been long settled, and is under ex- 
 cellent cultivation. In the country W.of the Alleghany 
 Mts. there is much fertile laud. For some distance 
 from the mountains, the country is hilly and rough. 
 Although the State, as a whole, is better adapted 
 to grain than to grazing, yet in many parts there 
 are large dairies, aud fine horses aud cattle are 
 raised. The most important dairy cos. are Berks, 
 Bradford, Bucks, Chester, Crawford, Erie, Lancaster, 
 Montgomery, Susquehanna, and York, in all of 
 which the number of milch cows ranks from 20,- 
 000 to 35,000, and the amount of butter produced

 The mineral wealth of Pa. is very great, con- 
 sisting chiefly of coal, iron, and petroleum. Bitu- 
 minous coal of an excellent quality and inexhausti- 
 ble in quantity, is almost everywhere found W. 
 of the Alleghany Mts., and in all the S. part of 
 the State, to the E. of them. In Pittsburg and 
 the vicinity, it is extensively used for manuf. pur- 
 poses. The anthracite coal region, with some few ex- 
 ceptions, is bounded on the N.YV. by the N. branch 
 of Susquehanna R., extending in a N.E. direction 
 for over 60 m., and divided into the southern, mid- 
 dle, and northern coal-fields. The S. coal-field is div- 
 ided into four mining districts : the Lehigh, Schuyl- 
 kill, Swatara, and Susquehanna. The middle coal- 
 field includes the Beaver, Meadow, Hazelton, Ma- 
 hanoy, and Shamokin districts. Towards the E. part 
 both the S. and middle coal-fields afford a hard, 
 shining, and very compact coal, difficult of ignition, 
 but affording an intense heat, while further VV., the 
 coal is less dense and more easy of ignition, and 
 yielding both white and red ashes. The N. coal-field 
 is, like"the others, abt. 65 in. long, and 5 or 6 broad, 
 and from 1 to 30 ft. in thickness, and includes the 
 Wyoming and Lackawanna coal, which is lighter 
 thau most of the other kinds of anthracite coal, and 
 more easy of ignition, and yields a good heat, though 
 less intense than the Lehigh, and some others. The 
 three great deposits of anthracite coal have been 
 calculated to contain 975 sq. m., or 624,000 acres, in 
 some places 50 or 60 ft. deep, and as each cubic yard 
 in the ground is calculated to yield a ton of coal, it 
 is easy to conceive that the quantity must be im- 
 mensely great. In the production of iron and steel in 
 blast-furnaces, rolling mills, steel works, forges and 
 bloomeries, Pa. takes the first rank. The capital in- 
 vested in these industries in the U. States in 1880 
 amounted to 8230,971,884. of which Pa. furnished 46 
 percent. The total product was 7,265,140 tons, of 
 which Pa. produced 3,61b,668, or nearly 50 per cent. 
 The following cos. are the principal centres of pro- 
 duction of iron and steel : Alleghany, 848,146 tons;

 Of 3,781.021 tons of pig iron and direct castings pro- 
 duced in 1880, in 22 States. Pa. made 1.930.314 tons, 
 or 51 per cent. Of 2,353,248 tons of rolled iron of all 
 kinds produced in 29 States and Territories in 1SS0 
 
 Pa. made 46 per cent. The total production of rails 
 for 1880 was 1,217,497 tons. Of the total production 
 of rails Pa. made 47 per cent. Of steel ingots, the 
 total production in 1880 was 985.208 tons. Of this. 
 Pa. made 56 per cent. Of the production of Besse- 
 mer steel rails Pa. made 55 per cent. The total pro- 
 duct of iron ore in the U. States in 1880 was 8,022,398 
 tons, of which Pa. produced more than anj' other 
 State, viz., 2.173,415 tons, or 27.09 percent. The 
 principal ore-producing cos. are, Lehich, 321.322 
 tons, Lebanon. 285,629, Berks, 252,940, Blair, 154.- 
 914, Northampton, 104,788. The State produced iu 
 1880. 28,640.819 tons of anthracite, being the entire 
 product of the country except 6,176tons. It also pro- 
 duces more b tumiuous coal than anv other State, 
 viz., 18.425,163 tons in 1880, out of a total of 42.420. 
 5S1 tons for the L". States. The principal oil fields 
 until the past 5 years were comprised iu the \V. cos. 
 N. of the Ohio and bordering on the Allesfhany K. 
 Recently the richest and most regular flowing wells 
 are situated in the so-called Bradford region in Mc- 
 Kean co., contiguous to the New York State line. 
 Fields which were productive 15 years ago have be- 
 come exhausted, but it was the waste of the ma- 
 terial which brought ruin to those districts. The new 
 machinery which" regulates as it preserves the pro- 
 duce of oil, has caused a more steady supply and 
 yield. At the present time nearly 81,000.000,000 is in- 
 vested in the petroleum trade, and the average yield 
 is abt. 70,000 barrels per week. In the days of the 
 great oil excitement there were times when this 
 was the daily produce. (See page 40). — Apart from 
 the production of iron, in every co. of the State 
 are industrial establishments of various kinds. Ac- 
 cording to the Federal census of 1880 there was in Pa. 
 31.232 "manuf. establishments, employing 3S7.009 
 hands, capital invested 8471,510,993, wages paid dur- 
 ing the year 8134,055.904, value of materials, 8465,- 
 020,563, value of products 8744,818,445. Numerous as 
 are the manuf. of iron, glass, cotton, woolen and 
 other goods, the resources of the state are so im- 
 mense that no better locality in the Union is offered 
 for investments. — Pa. is favorably situated for com- 
 merce, being connected with the three great systems 
 of water communication of the Atlantic Ocean, the 
 Mississippi and the lakes, through the ports of Phila- 
 delphia, Pittsburg, and Erie (which see). In 18S2, 
 according to Poor's Manual, the whole number of 
 railroad corporations whose lines are wholly or partly 
 in the State was 166 ; length of miles operated in Pa. 
 6,6£0. Prominent among them is the Pennsylvania, 
 probably the most powerful railroad in the world ; 
 nearly 2.500 m. of railroad in Pa. are operated by it, 
 and its investments in this State are estimated at not 
 less than S150,000,000 ; besides which it owns or 
 leases a large extent of road outside of the State. — 
 The canal system of Pa. comprises 12 distinct lines, 
 with a total length of 920 m., of which 507 are with- 
 in the limits of the State. The Schuylkill Canal is 108 
 m. long; the Pennsylvania Canal (360 m.), has 169 
 locks, 536 bridges, and 68 aqueducts : of the Dela- 
 ware & Hudson Canal (108 in. long), but 25 m. are 
 in Pa., and the Erie & Pittsburgh "Canal intersects 
 the N.YV. tier of cos. — By the new constitution the 
 legislature is required to provide for the maintenance 
 and support of an efficient system of public schools, 
 and to appropriate at least one million dollars every 
 year for that purpose. The following educational 
 statistics are taken from the report of the superin- 
 tendent of public instruction for the year 1882 : 
 Number of schools 19,183, of graded schools 7,812, of 
 normal schools 12, number of teachers 21.819 (males 
 9,051, females 12,778) ; number of pupils 945,345; 
 average number of pupils attending school 611,317; 
 total sum expended for school purposes in the year, 
 SS,263,244; estimated value of school property, S28,- 
 341,560. Scattered over the State are numerous pri-

 vate and select schools, but the high standing of the 
 public schools in the larger townsand cities, and the 
 number of excellent normal schools, are lessening the 
 number of academies and seminaries. The number 
 of colleges in the State is 28, the more prominent of 
 •which are the university of Pennsylvania, at Phila- 
 delphia; Lafayette college, at Easton; Lehigh uni- 
 versity, at Bethlehem; Dickinson college, at Carlisle; 
 Pennsylvania college, at Gettysburg; Jefferson col- 
 lege, at Cannonsburg; Alleghany college, at Mead- 
 ville; with others of not less importance and promi- 
 nence. Of theological seminaries under the control 
 of the various religious denominations, the State is 
 prolific, while in medicine and forensic lore the city 
 of Philadelphia has been the seat for over a century. 
 The medical department of the university of Penn- 
 sylvania, and Jefferson medical college, are the most 
 influential and reputable institutions of the kind in 
 the U. States.— There are iu Pa. 2 penitentiaries, of 
 which the Eastern, at Philadelphia, is conducted on 
 " the separate system," and the Western, at Pitts- 
 burg, upon " the combined " system. Abt. 1,000 
 prisoners are coufined in the two institutions. The 
 house of refuge at Philadelphia will accommodate 
 820 inmates, and the reform school at Pittsburg pro- 
 vides for 228 pupils. Abt. 50 almshouses have been 
 established, with real estate valued at abt. $6,000,- 
 000, iu which abt. 13,500 paupers can be cared for. 
 There are 5 State hospitals for the insane, at Norris- 
 town, Harrisburg, Dixmont, Danvile and Warren. A 
 department for the insane is connected with the Phila- 
 delphia almshouse, and the Pennsylvania hospital for 
 the insane (Kirkbride's) and the Friends' asylum are 
 in the same city. The Pa. institution for the deaf 
 and dumb and for the blind are schools rather than 
 asylums. — The State is divided into 67 cos. Harrisburg 
 is the cap.; Philadelphia aud Pittsburg are the largest 
 cities. The other cities are Alleghany, Allentovvn, 
 Carbondale, Chester, Columbia, Corry, Erie, Frank- 
 lin, Lancaster, Lock Haven, Meadville, Pottsville, 
 Reading, Scranton, Titusville, Wilkesbarre, and Wil- 
 liamsport. — Under the amended constitution of Dec. 
 16th, 1873, the legislature consists of 50 senators, 
 chosen for 4 years, and 200 representatives, chosen 
 for 2 years. Biennial sessions are held, beginning on 
 the first Tuesday of Jan. The governor holds office 
 for 4 years, and is not eligible for re-election at the 
 term next succeeding that for which he was first 
 chosen. The supreme court consists of 7 judges, elect- 
 ed by the people for a term of 21 years and not eli- 
 gible to re-election. Each co. containing 40,000 in- 
 habitants constitutes a separate judicial district. 
 A separate orphans' court is established in every city 
 and co. having a pop. of 150,000. The State election 
 is held on the Tuesday after the first Monday of 
 November. Pa. sends 28 representatives to congress, 
 and has, therefore, 30 electoral votes. The public 
 debt in 1882 was $20,225,083.28. The receipts at the 
 Stat tereasury for the year ending Nov. 30th, 1882, 
 were $16,428,650.11; expenditures, $14,850,871.18; val- 
 uation of personal property (real estate is not taxed 
 for State property) $97,921,051.— William Penn re- 
 ceived from the English crown a grant of " all that 
 tract of land bounded E. by the river Delaware, ex- 
 tending W. five degrees, aud N. and S. between the 
 40th aud 42d parallels, except an area around New 
 Castle (Delaware) circumscribed by a radius of 
 twelve miles." In October, 1682, Penn, accompanied 
 by 2,000 settlers, arrived at New Castle, and in 1683 
 Philadelphia was chosen as the site for the new col- 
 ony. Very amicable relations were established with 
 the Indians, and Penn's people were exempt from 
 the horrors of savage warfare which were inflicted 
 upon almost every other colony. The part which 
 Pennsylvania took in the American Revolution is 
 mentioned in this work under Philadelphia. Pop.

 trade; its manufacturing interests are also of consid- 
 erable importance. Two steamers ply daily during 
 the season of navigation to Hammondsport at the 
 head of Keuka lake. The principal depot and store-

 Pewobscot, Me., a large and important river, 
 which, with its numerous branches waters a great 
 portion of the State. It is formed by the junction in 
 Penobscot co.. of two chief branches The western 
 and larger rises near the Canada border. The eastern 
 branch, also called Seboois R., proceeds from sev- 
 eral small lakes in the N. part of Penobscot co. 
 The main stream pursues a course a little W. 
 of S., receiving among its most important affluents 
 the Piscataquis on the W. and the Mattawamkeag 
 and Passadumkeag ou the E. and falls into Penobs- 
 cot bay. Its total length, from the source of the W. 
 branch is about 275 m. and from the junction abt. 
 135 m. To Bangor, 55 m. from its mouth, it is navi- 
 gable for large vessels. Above this point small 
 steamers run for many miles. Along its course it has 
 numerous falls, affording considerable water-power 
 which is only in small parts utilized. It is the most 
 important salmon-stream in the U.S., its product 
 excelling in value aud quality of fish, though not in 
 quantity, that of the Columbia R. — Penobscot Bay 
 extends from Owl's Head on the W. to Coast Island 
 on the E., a distance of 30 m. At its mouth are Fox 
 Islands, Deer Isle, Isle of Haut, and several smaller 
 ones. It extends inland to Belfast Bay at the mouth of 
 Penobscot R., a distance of 20 m. N. from Owl's 
 Head. This bay contains many good harbors. 
 — a central co.,iuterseeted by Penobscot R.; area,2,900 
 sq. m. It has a diversified surface and a generally 
 fertile soil. Formerly it comprised a very large terri- 
 tory, which has been gradually cut up to form other 
 cos., and its outlines are very eccentric, it being 
 composed of three parallelograms irregularly dispos- 
 ed. The chief prod, in 1880 were 320,174 bush, of 
 oats, 107,351 of wheat, 71,137 of corn, 29,367 of bar- 
 ley,and 28,394 of buckwheat; potatoes, butter,cheese,

 with 21 ft. of water on the bar, and was a place of 
 considerable importance during the Spanish and En- 
 glish government of Florida. It has a navy-yard and 
 forts, aud was the scene of important military aud 
 naval operat ions during the civil war. Pensacola has 
 2 semi-wkly papers, several schools, a custom-house, 
 and a considerable trade in lumber. The climate is 
 usually healthy, but subject to occasional visitations 
 of yellow fever. Pensacola was settled by the French 
 in abt. 1696. Pop. in 1S70, 3,347 ; in 1880, 6,846.

 half this distance from the sea it separates itself into 
 two divisions, Escambia Bay on the W. aud on the E. 
 the bay of Sauta Maria de Galvez with its subsidiaries, 
 East and Black Water Bays. The former receives the 
 waters of the Escambia R., the hitter, those of the 
 Black Water and Yellow Water. The entrance of the 
 bay, between Santa Rosa Island on the E. and the 
 mainland on theW. is little more than 1 m. wide, but 
 within it expands into a capacious harbor, from 4 to 
 8 m. in width, and eutirely land-locked. There is a 
 depth of abt. 22ft. of wateronthe bar. The entrance 
 of Pensacola Bay is defended by Fort Pickens on the 
 E. and Fort McKee on the W. Abt. 1£ m. to the N. 
 aud immediately in front of the entrance (the W. 
 shore making an abrupt turn E.), stands Fort San

 It is lighted with gas, and abundantly supplied with 
 water from a reservoir. It is well built and naturally 
 di 'ained, the ground descending gradually from the 
 heights on the S. outskirts to the river. There is a 
 public park, called Poplar Lawn. The principal pub- 
 lic buildings are the custom house and post office, 
 court-house, two market houses, and theatre. The 
 river is navigable to this place, which is at the head 
 of tide water, and, it having been dredged and im- 
 proved, vessels of large size now ascend to the 
 wharves in the city. Immediately above the city the 
 
 falls afford extensive water-power. Above the falls'the 
 Appomattox is made navigable for bateaux to Farm- 
 ville, 107 m. The handling of cotton and tobacco, 
 with wheat, corn, and general country produce, is the 
 chief busiuHss. The foreign commerce, except in to- 
 bacco and cotton, is inconsiderable. There are nu- 
 merous tobacco factories, 4 cotton factories, 4 flour 
 and grist mills, a whisky distillery, 4 banks, 6 schools 
 of a high grade, 1 daily and 2 wkly papers, and 24 
 churches. Petersburg was incorporated in 1748. It 
 is a place of considerable historical interest, and 
 is memorable for its long siege during the civil war, 
 which lasted from June 19, 1864 to April3, 1865, when

 Philadelphia, Pa., a port of entry, the prin- 
 cipal city of the State, and the second in pop. in the 
 U. States, is situated between the Delaware and 
 Schuylkill Rs., abt. 6 m. above their junction, and 
 96 m. from the Atlantic by following the course of 
 Delaware R. and bav ; 138 m. N.E. of Washington, 
 and 90 m. S.W. of New York city, by rail ; lat. 39° 57' 
 N., and Ion. 75° 10' W. The surface of the city is 
 generally level, the ground, however, making a grad- 
 ual ascent towards the N. The co. of Philadelphia 
 being inclosed within the municipal limits of the 
 city, gives the latter a greater superficies of jurisdic- 
 tion than is found to belong to any other city of 
 the Union. West Philadelphia, Germantown, Mana- 
 yunk, and Frankford form its most important sub- 
 urbs ; they are thickly populated, and adorned with 
 handsome private residences. The city was originally 
 built in the form of a parallelogram, with main 
 streets running E. to W., or from river to river, with 
 others intersecting them at right angles. Market St. 
 and Broad St., the former running E. and W., and 
 the latter (on the highest ground between the rivers) 
 N. and S. divided the city, as first founded, into 4 
 nearly equal divisions, of which the most populous 
 lies E. of Broad St. The plan of the city as originally 
 laid out, has been followed in the construction of 
 
PHI

 PHI 
 
 thenew portions N., S., and W., but with consider- 
 able and improved variations. The principal streets 
 average from 50 to 80 ft. in width, excepting how- 
 ever, Market St., which has a breadth of 100 ft., and 
 Broad St., one of the most spacious avenues in the 
 U. States, with a space of 120 ft. across. The city is 
 well provided with large and handsomely arranged 
 public parks and squares, of which the principal are 
 Fairmont and Hunting Parks, the latter containing 
 45 acres, and Franklin, Penn., Rittenhouse, Wash- 
 ington, Logan, and Independence Squares ; the lat- 
 ter in the rear of the State house. These squares 
 vary in their several extents from 5 to 7 acres, and 
 are well laid out with a profusion of noble trees, 
 and several handsome fountains. Fairmouut Park in 
 the N.W. outskirts of the city, in point of natural 
 beauty of location and extent, is excelled by none in 
 either hemisphere. It is picturesquely situated on 
 both sides of the Schuylkill R., extending upward 
 along that river abt. 5 m. and thence abt. 6 m. more up 
 the Wissahiekon, — a spot of peculiar scenic beauty, 
 — and containing altogether a tract of 2,740 acres. 
 P. possesses many fine, and some imposing public 
 buildings. Foremost among these is Girard college, 
 located abt. 2 m. N.W. of the State house. The cus- 
 tom house and sub-treasury is a specimen of Doric 
 rrchitecture. The new city hall (Penn. square), of 
 marble, to cost over $10,000,000, is said to exceed in 
 size the U. States capitol. The new post-office, of 
 granite, will be the peer of any post-office edifice in 
 the world. The U. States mint, has a frontage of 
 122 ft., with a central portico 62 ft. long, and an 
 inner court; forming, altogether, a fine and commo- 
 dious building, which was begun in 1829 and com- 
 pleted in the following year, at a cost of §200,000. 
 The merchant's exchange, built on the triangle 
 forming the intersection of Walnut, Third, and Dock 
 Sts., erected at a cost of abt. §300,000, presents an 
 external appearance commensurate with the com- 
 mercial wealth and importance of the city. The 
 chamber of commerce, lately rebuilt on 2d St., is a 
 fine building. The State house, — "the cradle of 
 American liberty" — a plain brick edifice of antique 
 aspect, is situated on the Chesnut St. front of Inde- 
 pendence square, and consists of a central building 
 surmounted by a spire furnished with a clock and 
 bell, and two wings, in which are ensconced the city 
 and county officers. On the first floor of the main 
 building is Independence Hall, — a large apartment 
 decorated with quaint carvings, and with its wain- 
 scotted walls serving as a picture gallery of great 
 American worthies, — derives its distinctive appella- 
 tion from having been the place of assembly of the 
 congress which, in 1776, issued the memorable 
 declaration of American independence. Among other 
 notable buildings are the young men's christian as- 
 sociation hall, Presbyterian board of publication, 
 horticultural hall (Broad St.), the university build- 
 ing, the academy of fine arts, academy of natural 
 sciences, zoological society buildings, Ridgway 
 library, masonic hall, erected at a cost of $1,300,000 
 Wagner institute, memorial hall, occupied by the 
 Pennsylvania museum and school of industrial art, 
 horticultural building, besides many other buildings 
 of lesser note. P. is liberally supplied with theatres 
 and places of public amusement. Of these the P. 
 academy of music is one of the first edifices of the 
 kind in the U. States. Many of the private and public 
 edifices are very elegant, such as the union league 
 club house, those of the mutual life insurance com- 
 pany, the Public Ledger, The Times, the farmer's and 
 mechanics' bank, Philadelphia, first national, guar- 
 antee, fidelity, Girard building, and other banking 
 institutions. The ecclesiastical architecture of P. pre- 
 sents many fine examples of divers styles, such as the 
 Roman Catholic cathedral, the Jewish synagogue, 
 St. Mark's (Epis.), &c. At the corner of Broad and 
 
 Spruce St. stood the superb Beth-Eden Baptist 
 church, which was burned in 1881. The city is replete 
 with religious edifices : there being altogether abt. 
 550 places of worship. The environs of the city com- 
 prise many handsome cemeteries, such as Laurel 
 Hill, Woodland, Mount Vernon, Mount Moriah, 
 Glenwood, &c. Of the buildings connected with the 
 social wants of the community are the gas and 
 water-works, prisons, alms-houses, houses of refuge, 
 house of correction, &c. The institutions devoted to 
 benevolent purposes include thePennsylvania, Epis- 
 copal, German, St. Joseph's, City, Philadelphia, Uni- 
 versity, Jefferson, Jewish, Presbyterian, German- 
 town, Orthopaedic, woman's hospitals, and Will's 
 hospital forthe treatment of the eye, Preston retreat, 
 or lying-in hospital, houses of industry, several dis- 
 pensaries, asylums fortbe insane and feeble-minded, 
 blind asylum, widows' asylum, Christ church hospit- 
 al, Burd asylum, deaf and dumb asylum, colored or- 
 phan asylum, union benevolent association, Western 
 house of employment, newsboys' home, humane so- 
 ciety, eye and ear infirmary, Magdalen asylum, house 
 of the Good Shepherd, and numerous others, in all 
 256 various charitable and philanthropic institutions. 
 The public establishments applying to the intellec- 
 tual and artistic requirements of the Philadelphians 
 are on a corresponding scale of magnitude and effic- 
 iency. The university of Pennsylvania, possessing 
 the oldest medical college in the Li. States, founded 
 in 1765, has long been celebrated for the superior ad- 
 vantages it offers to students from all quarters of the 
 Union. The Jefferson medical college, a younger but 
 equally flourishing school, the Women's medical col- 
 lege, Wistar and Horner anatomical museum, Wood's 
 pathological museum, &c. The Philadelphia college 
 of pharmacy, and two dental colleges, with the ec- 
 lectic and homoeopathic medical colleges, are »U 
 flourishing institutions. The scholastic provision in- 
 stituted for the commoner demands of education, 
 finds active employment for 2 high schools, 62 gram- 
 mar, 27 consolidated, 132 secondary, and 225 primary 
 schools — total, 448 — which have an aggregate atten- 
 dance of abt. 100,000 scholars, controlled by a staff 
 of 1,950 teachers. The expenditures for the support 
 of schools in 1880 was $1,844,260. The literary re- 
 sources of this city are embodied in the Philadelphia 
 library, founded by Benj. Franklin, and incorporated 
 in 1742, and its new branch — the Ridgway library 
 contains abt. 150,000 volumes. The mercantile library, 
 established in 1821, housed in a handsome and com- 
 modious building erected in 1869, contains 135,000 
 volumes, the Athenaeum library 20,000, and the ap- 
 prentices', founded in 1820, with 25,000 volumes. 
 The library of the university contains 10,000. The 
 Friends have a collection of abt. 25,000 volumes, and 
 taking colleges, associations, and public and private 
 libraries into account, it will be found that the 
 amount of literary pabulum furnished the citizens 
 makes a total of over 500,000 volumes. The academy 
 of natural sciences, established in 1812, besides a 
 valuable library of 28,000 volumes, upon natural his- 
 tory and kindred subjects, possesses the largest 
 museum of natural history in the U. States, includ- 
 ing choice and extensive ornithological, zoological, 
 herbarian, and mineralogical collections. The Frank- 
 lin institute, founded in 1824 for the promotion of 
 the mechanical arts, has a collection of abt. 20,000 
 volumes, of scientific works, in conjunction with 
 valuable cabinets of mineral specimens, mechanical 
 models, &c. The historical society and philosophical 
 society have each valuable collections of books. The 
 Pennsylvania ucademy of fine arts possesses a good 
 collection of paintings of the modern school. The 
 U. States navy yard, at League Island, on the Dela- 
 ware, was purchased in 1862 for the sum of $310,000, 
 and presented by the citizens to the national gover- 
 nment, as a naval station for the construction of ships

 of war, and embraces an area of 923 acres. The U. 
 States arsenal, founded in 1800, is located below the 
 naval asylum, on the Schuylkill, and is used princi- 
 pally as a magazine and depot of clothing. A large 
 arsenal located at Bridesburg on the Delaware R., 
 covers several acres in extent. Cramp's dry-dock, 
 built at a cost of $-150,000, is capable of accom- 
 modating vessels of 450 ft. in length. The U. States 
 naval asylum, a fine white marble building, with a 
 frontage of 380ft. and the naval hospital, can accom- 
 modate nearly 580 persons. — The commercial impor- 
 tance of P. has steadily increased since the opening 
 of the Pennsylvania RR. to Pittsburg, whereby it has 
 effected direct communication with the Mississippi 
 Valley and the far West. The coal, petroleum, and 
 grain trades are very extensive; several large eleva- 
 tors have been erected, one at Girard Point has a 
 capacilyfor storing 800,000 bush, of grain. The city 
 is in direct intercourse with the chief Atlantic anil 
 Gulf ports, Liverpool and Antwerp, by lines of steam- 
 ships and coasters. — The manuf. are extensive and 
 greater in the variety of articles made, the number 
 of persons employed, and the value of materials 
 used than in any other city in tlie Union. The plen- 
 tifulness of water, proximity to coal fields, together 
 with the breadth of the space available for large 
 manuf. establishments, and the comfort which me- 
 chanics may enjoy with their families, have contribu- 
 ted to this result. In 1880, according to the U. States 
 census, there were in P. 9,050 manuf. establishments, 
 employing 197,964 hands ; capital invested $186,686,- 
 934 ; wages paid during the year $63,027,832 ; value 
 of materials, $202,506,644 ; value of products, $322,- 
 984,461. The manuf. comprise textile fabrics, ma- 
 chinery, hardware, tools, boots and shoes, chemicals, 
 &c. Some of the largest and most extensive iron 
 works are to be found in this city. One locomotive 
 works alone employs 3,000 hands, with facilities for 
 constructing 700 engines per annum. Extensive busi- 
 ness is carried on in car wheels, heavy machine tools, 
 eastings, &c. P. is justly celebrated for manuf. of 
 gas tubing and gas fixtures. Of certain grades of 
 carpeting and small woolenware, P. has almost a 
 monopoly. Large paper mills abound in the vicinity 
 of the city, and tend to make P. an economical em- 
 porium of book and paper trade. Ship building is 
 largely carried on, and the iron vessels constructed 
 upon the Delaware have attained a great celebrity. — 
 The commerce of the port has been for several years 
 steadily increasing, the increase being chiefly on 
 breadstuff's and produce. For the year 1882 the value 
 of exports to foreign countries was $38,131,258; im- 
 ports, $34,136,579. Total imports and exports, $72,- 
 267,837, which was 4.90 per cent of the general com- 
 merce of the U. States. The vessels which entered 
 the port in the foreign trade were 426 American, of 
 274,444 tons, and 1,313 foreign, of 1,055,961 tons. 
 There were 940 vessels of 211,653 tons belonging to 
 the port, of which 587 sailing vessels of 125,179 tons, 
 279 steam vessels of 75,268 tons, 45 canal boats of 
 5,990 tons, aud 29 barges of 5,216 tons. The vessels 
 built during the year were 55 of 28,991 tons, of 
 which 38 of 24,470 tons were steamers. — The rail 
 roads which have their depots in the city are the C.& 
 A., the C.,G.&M.E., the Penn., the P.,N,<ftN.Y., the 
 P.&A.C. the P.,W.&B., the P.&B.C, the P.&R., 
 the W.C.&P., and the W.J.— In 1882 there were 32 
 nat. banks with an aggregate capital of $16,530,000; 
 20 State and savings banks, and 207 newspapers and 
 periodicals (of which 20 were daily). The principal 
 theatres are the academy of music (3,000 seats), the 
 Walnut street (1,500 seats), the Arch street (1,800 
 seats), the Chestnut street (2,500 seats), the American 
 (2,800 seats), the Grand Central, and the museum. P. 
 nas a large number of markets, some of which are of 
 large size and superior character. — P. is divided into 
 31 wards. The mayor is elected for 3 years. The 
 
 legislative authority is vested in a select, council of 
 31 members elected for 3 years, and a common 
 council of 68 members elected for 2 years. The U. 
 States courts for the eastern district of Pa., meet 
 here, and terms of the State supreme court are held 
 here. There are 4 courts of common pleas, each con- 
 sisting of 3 judges, which have coordinate jurisdic- 
 tion in civil matters within the city. P. sends 8 
 senators and 38 representatives to the State legisla- 
 ture. The police force is under command of a chief, 
 assisted by 4 captains, and consists of 1,200 men. 
 There is a paid fire department, under the control 
 of a board of 7 commissioners. The force consists of 
 a chief engineer, 5 assistant engineers, and abt. 400 
 men, organized into 27 steam engine companies and 
 5 hook and ladder companies. The city is supplied 
 with water from the Schuylkill and Delaware Rs., 
 chiefly from the former. There are 7 works ; the 
 Fairmount, on the Schuylkill, at the lower extremity 
 of the park, the Schuylkill, the Spring Garden, the 
 Delaware, the Belmont, the Roxborough, and the 
 Frankford. These works pump in average abt. 45,- 
 000,000 gallons per day. The water department is in 
 charge of a chief engineer. The debt of the city in 
 in 1882, was : gross, $72,264,596 ; net, $54,223,844. 
 
 The assessed val. of taxable prop, in 1880 was 
 $623,711,085. P. was founded by William Penn, 
 who came over from England in 1682, accompanied 
 by a colony of Quakers, and purchased the site from 
 the Indians. The emigration thither was very rapid, 
 and in 1684 the pop. was estimated at 2,500. Penn 
 presented the city with a charter in 1701. It pros- 
 pered greatly, and was the most important city in 
 the country during the colonial period and for more 
 than a quarter of a century after the revolution. 
 The first continental congress assembled here (in 
 1774), as did also the subsequent congresses during 
 the war. The declaration of independence was made 
 and issued here, July 4, 1776. The convention which 
 formed the constitution of the republic assembled 
 here in May, 1787. Here resided the first president of 
 the U. States, and here congress continued to meet 
 until 1797. Until 1797 it was the capital of the colony 
 aud State of Pa., aud from 1790 to 1800 was the seat 
 of the government of the U. States. The city was in 
 possession of the British f:om September, 1777, to 
 June, 1778, a result of the unfortunate battles of 
 Brandywine and Germantown. Since the revolution 
 the city has grown steadily and rapidly. Pop. in 
 1778 (census by General Cornwallis), 21,767; in 1800, 
 41,200 ; in 1820, 121,376 ; in 1850, 408,762 ; in 1860, 
 565,529 ; in 1870, 674,022 ; in 1880, 846,984.

 W. of lucson and S. of the Gila valley is uninhabited 
 except by the Papago Indians, who occupy a reser- 
 vation near the Mexican border. This region consists 
 of plains interspersed with broken or detached chains 
 of mountains, and is covered with grass apart of the 
 year, and considerable portions of it with mezquite, 
 but it is deficient in water. The valley of the Gila, 
 with irrigation, is very productive, and portions of it 
 in this co., are from 5 to 10 m. wide. The Maricopa 
 and Pima Indians occupy a reservation 25 m. long in 
 this valley, W. of the centre of the co., E. of Tucson 
 the surface consists of plains, valleys, and broken 
 chains of mountains. The greater part is covered 
 with nutritious grasses, and live oak and mezquite 
 abound. The valleys with irrigation produce two 
 crops a year. Gold, silver, copper, and lead are found 
 in the mountains. The greater portion of this co. has 
 been subject to the incursions of the Apaches. Min- 
 ing and cattle and wool-raising are the leading pur- 
 suits. Cap., Tucson. Val. of taxable prop. abt. S3,-

 Pimas, a family of Indians, formerly extending 
 over Arizona, and in Mexico over Sonora and part of 
 Siualoa, and including the Pimas people, the Opatas, 
 Eudeves, and Joves. They have always been an agri- 
 cultural people, they embraced Christianity at an 
 early day and faithfully adhered to it. The Pimas 
 now within the limits of the U. States in Arizona, oc- 
 cupy along with the Maricopas, a reservation of 64,- 
 000 acres on both sides of the Gila R. from Maricopa 
 Wells to Sacaton, in Pima and Maricopa cos., set 
 apart for them in accordance with the act of Feb. 28, 
 1859. They are tall, bony, and well-formed, are fond 
 of athletic games, wear cotton blankets of their own 
 manufacture, live in villagesof dome-shaped huts, and 
 wage a perpetual warfare against the Apaches. They 
 cultivate the soil by means of irrigation, are skillful 
 in weaving, in basket and boat making, and have a 
 rude kind of pottery. They have much degenerated 
 since the whites from the north entered their coun- 
 try, the men being thieves and the women corrupt. 
 They now number abt. 4,000, and are under the re- 
 ligious influence of the Reformed (German) Church.

 Pittsburg, Pa.\ the cap. of Alleghany co., the 
 2d city of the State in pop. and importance, the 12th 
 in pop. and one of the chief manuf. cities in the 
 Union, is situated at the confluence of the rivers 
 Alleghany and Monongahela, which by their unidn, 
 here forms the Ohio, which is at this place a quarter 
 of a mile wide, and navigable by steamboats to the 
 Gulf of Mexico through the Mississippi R.; 466 m. 
 above Cincinnati, and by rail, 354 m. W. by N. from 
 Philadelphia. It is built on a beautiful plain between 
 the tvvo rivers of a triangular form. Abt. a mile back 
 of the the point it is surrounded by Grant's, Ayer's, 
 and Quarry hills. It is substantially and compactly 
 built, with many handsome residences, to which, 
 however, a dingy appearance is given by the dust of 
 the bituminous coal, so extensively used in its 
 manuf. and otherwise, whence it is styled " Smoky 
 City," while it owes its appellation of " li on City " to 
 the extent of its iron manuf. Five bridges span the 
 Monongahela R. and 7 the Alleghany, 5 of which con- 
 nect Pittsburg with the city of Alleghany. The hills 
 with which the city is surrounded are filled with bi- 
 tuminous coal, which can easily be brought to the 
 city, and affords unequalled facilities for manuf. 
 Among the public buildings are the municipal hall, 
 the court-house, the custom-house and post-office, 
 the U. States arsenal, and the mercantile library, a 
 spacious and handsome building, containing 15,000 
 volumes and reading rooms. Of the 150 churches of 
 the city, the most noteworthy are the Roman Cath- 
 olic cathedral of St. Paul, and Trinity church 
 (Episcopalian). There are in Pittsburg 2 theatres, an 
 opera house, an academy of music, and several pub- 
 lic halls. The railroads which centre here, affording 
 direct connection with all parts of the countrv, are 
 the A.V., the C.&P., the Penn., the P.,C.&St.L., the 
 P.,E.W.&C, the B.&O.. the P.&C.P., the P.&L.E., 
 the P.S., and the P.&W. Additional facilities for 
 traffic are afforded by the 3 rivers. Lumber and oil 
 are transported to a considerable extent on the 
 Monongahela R., nearly all the lumber from the W. 
 cos. of the State finding its way to market in rafts 
 by this stream. Coal and coke are produced in large 
 quantities on the Monongahela, and are floated in 
 barges to Cincinnati, Louisville, and New Orleans 
 when the rivers are in flood. The consumption, quan- 
 tities shipped, and production of coal and coke at 
 Pittsburg for the vear 1881. was as follows : quantity 
 consumed, coal 40",000.000 bis., coke. 30,000,000 ; quan- 
 tities shipped by river, coal 75,000,000 bis., coke 3,- 
 780,700 ; quantities shipped by rail, coal 88,471,755, 
 coke 104,221,140 ; total production, coal 203,471,755 
 bis., coke 138,001,840 bis. Pittsburg is a port of de- 
 livery. The number of vessels belonging to the port 
 in 1881 was 214 of 52,711 tons in aggregate, of which 
 169 of 36,467 tons were steamers, and 45 of 16,244 
 tons were barges. The number built during the same 
 year was 27 steamers of 6,424 tons. A new and prom- 
 ising industry is the building for exportation steam 
 and other boats of iron, steel, and wood fitted and 
 put together here, then taken apart and sent by rail 
 
 to New York, thus shipped to the port of destina- 
 tion, and there put together complete for sea or river 
 service. The statement of the industries of Pittsburg, 
 given by the U. States census of 1880, being limited 
 to Pittsburg proper, does not show what is truly 
 the business of the city, which should include that 
 of its sister city of Alleghany, or in fact of Alleghany 
 co. The twin "cities of Pittsburg and Alleghany are 
 so directly and intimately associated and connected 
 in business that it would be very difficult, in fact 
 almost impossible, to separate them, Pittsburg and 
 Alleghany capital, brains and industry, being em- 
 ployed in the mills, factories, warehouses, and offices 
 of either city. The following statement, showing the 
 business of Pittsburg, Alleghany, and immediate 
 vicinity (exclusive of the retail industries), was pre- 
 pared by Mr. G. Follansbee, superintendent of the 
 chamber of commerce of Pittsburg.

 Platte River, is formed in Lincoln co., Neb., 
 by the union of the N. andS. forks. The former rises 
 in the North Park, Col., receiving the Sweetwater, 
 the Laramie, and other streams. The South Platte 
 flows from the South Park of Col., and in its upper 
 course is extensively utilized in irrigation and as a 
 source of water-power. The united stream flows E. 
 and reaches the Missouri near Plattsmouth, Cass co. , 
 Neb. It is the widest, but, neither the largest in vol- 
 ume nor the longest affluent of the Missouri. Its 
 mouth is over 1,000 yards wide, but it is so very shal- 
 low that it can nowhere be navigated with much suc- 
 cess. Its valley is generally very fertile. The drain- 
 age area is estimated at 7,500 sq. m. The Loup fork 
 and Elkhorn are the chief tributary streams. Estima- 
 ted length (from the source of the North fork) 900 m.

 m. wide from N. to S. It is connected with Lake 
 Borgne on the E. by the Rigolets, a narrow winding 
 strait, and with Lake Maurepas on the W. by the 
 bayou Manchac. Its S. shore borders on New Or- 
 leans, and the bayou St. John, a small tributary, 
 extends into that city. The lake is nowhere more 
 than abt. 20 ft. deep, yet, through it is carried on 
 most of the costing trade between New Orleans and 
 the eastern gulf ports. Steamboats and small vessels 
 pass from the lake to the heart of the city through 
 two canals, each terminating in an artificial basin.

 States). The northern shores of the lake are more

 try-seats and summer resorts.

 1£ m. from the foot of Lake Huron on C.&G.T. and 
 P~,H.&N.W.RRs. It is connected by ferry with Port 
 Samia, Canada, on the opposite side of the St. Clair. 
 The Grand Trunk railway crosses the St. Clair at Fort 
 Gratiot, 1J m. N., to which point two horse railroads 
 have been constructed. The Black R., brings down 
 immense quantities of logs, which give employment 
 to a large number of lumber and shingle mills. There 
 are also 3 ship-yards and 2 dry docks. The trade in 
 fish is important. Port Huron is the port of entry of 
 the customs district of Huron, which embraces all 
 the coast of the State bordering on Lake Huron, and 
 has a large domestic and foreign commerce. The 
 traffic by rail with Canada is extensive. The city has a 
 fire department, gas-works, water-works, a fine court 
 house, 1 nat. and 2 other banks, 4 large public school 
 houses, 1 daily and 3 wkly papers, and 9 churches.

 Portland, Me., a city<f>, 
 
 Portland, Me., the commercial metropolis of 
 the State, port of entry, and cap. of Cumberland co., 
 is very pleasantly situated on a peninsula at 
 the W. extremity of Casco Bay, between Casco 
 R. on the S. and Back Cove on the N., 68 in. 
 S.S.W. of Augusta, 108 m. N.N.E. of Boston, 
 and 290 m. S.E. of Montreal, by rail. Lat. 43° 
 39' N., Ion. 70° 15' W. The length of the penin- 
 sula, from E. to W., is 3 m., and its average width abt. 
 3 m., containing abt. 2,200 acres of land. The ground 
 on which the city is built rises, towards both its E. 
 and W. extremities, into considerable elevations, 
 which gives a beautiful appearance to the general 
 outline of the place, as it is approached from the sea. 
 The city is regularly laid out, especially the more 
 modern portions of it, and several of the streets are 
 among the handsomest in any of our cities. It is 
 built mostly with brick ; and the dwellings, always 
 neat, are, many of them, spacious and elegant. Beau- 
 tiful elms and other shade trees adorn several of the 
 more retired avenues. For a city of its size, Portland 
 has exceptionally fine public buildings. The city hall 
 is one of the largest and finest municipal structures 
 in the country. It is surmounted with a graceful 
 dome 160 ft. high. The post-office is a beautiful build- 
 ing of white Vermont marble, in the mediaeval Ital- 
 ian style. The custom-house, erected at a cost of 
 $485,000, is a handsome granite structure, with elab- 
 orate ornamentation within. The society of natural 
 history has a fine collection of birds, fishes, reptiles, 
 shells and minerals. The library, incorporated in 
 1867, contaius 15,000 volumes. The Marine hospital, 
 erected in 1855, at a cost of $80,000, is an imposing 
 edifice. On a promontory at the E. end of the city, 
 rising abt. 100 ft. above the water, stands a tower, 
 70 ft. high, erected in 1807, by the merchants of Port- 
 land, for the purpose of observing vessels at sea. It 
 is furnished with a large telescope, and with signals 
 to be raised on the approach of vessels making this 
 port. This position commands a most extensive and 
 beautiful prospect in all directions, embracing the 
 Atlantic Ocean as far as the eye can reach ; Casco 
 Bay, to the mouth of the Kennebec, with the numer- 
 ous verdant and beautiful islands reposing upon its 
 bosom ; the Agamenticus hills in York, and the 
 whole range of mountains on the borders of N.H., 
 from Ossipee, near Lake Winnipiseogee, to the White 
 Mts., which constitute the crowning feature of the 
 landscape. The serene, majestic form of Mount Wash- 
 ington, as it stands in clear relief against the distant 
 heavens, is here a most impressive object ; while be- 
 low, "in the immediate vicinity," as one has said of 
 it, " lie the city and adjacent country, as a gem in its 
 emerald setting." The principal lines of railroads 
 which have here their E. terminus, are the E., the M.

 C, the P.&O., theB.&M., the P.&R., and the G.T. 
 Portland is the winter port of the ocean st amers 
 connecting with G.T. RR. at Montreal in summer, and 
 plying to Liverpool and Glasgow. There are 2 lines 
 of steamers daily to New York, daily boats to Boston, 
 and lines to Bangor, St. John and Halifax. The har- 
 bor is one of the best in the U. States, being near the 
 ocean, easy of access, safe and ample, with sufficient 
 depth of water for the largest vessels. It is not ob- 
 structed with ice, except occasionally in the most ex- 
 treme cold weather. This city, from its relative posi- 
 tion, enjoys fine advantages for trade and commerce. 
 The foreign trade is chiefly carried on with the West 
 Indies, South America and Europe, the exports 
 being for the most part provisions, lumber, ice, and 
 fish, and the imports molasses, sugar, crockery, salt 
 and iron. The value of imports for the year 1882 was 
 $2,650,000 (of which §326,432 were foreign exports); 
 of exports $2,453,394. The number of entrances from 
 foreign ports in 1882 was 338, tonnage 176,789; clear- 
 ances 478, tonnage 235,773; entrances in the coast- 
 wise trade and fisheries, 728 of 610,064 tons, clear- 
 ances 597 of 550,240 tons. There were, belonging to 
 the district, 351 sailing vessels of 108,915 tons, 23 
 steamers of 7,985 tons, and 2 barges of 718 tons ; 
 built during the year, 5 sailing vessels of 3,256 tons, 
 and 2 steamers of 165 tons. The vessels employed in 
 the cod and mackerel fisheries in 1882 were 135 of 
 5,824 tons. Portland has 19 public schools, numerous 
 charitable associations, 25 churches, 3 lines of street 
 cars, 6 nat. banks, besides private banking houses, 
 28 newspapers and periodicals (of which 5 daily), a 
 safe deposit company, 2 iron rolling-mills, manuf. of 
 locomotives and marine engines, a dry dock deeper 
 than any other in the U. States, and manuf. of car- 
 riages, furniture, varnishes, etc. The canning of 
 corn and lobsters is extensively carried on. The city 
 is divided into 7 wards, and is governed by a mayor 
 and a board of aldermen of one member, and a com- 
 mon council of 3 members, for each ward ; it has an 
 organized police force, an efficient fire department, 
 and is abundantly supplied with good and clean 
 water from Sebago Lake, 17 m. distant. Portland 
 was settled in 1632, and has had a steady growth ; but 
 on the night of July 4, 1866, a great fire swept away 
 half the business portion, destroying $10,000,000 
 worth of property. The entire district destroyed by 
 the fire has since been rebuilt. Pop. in 1800,

 from the Pacific ocean, 50 m. N. of Salem, and 530 
 m. N. of San Francisco. It is the head of ship navi- 
 gation, and is built on a plateau rising gradually from 
 the river, a range of fir- covered hills surrounding it 
 in a semi-circle on the west, and commanding fine 
 views of the Willamette valley with the Cascade Mts. 
 in the distance. The streets are regularly laid out, 
 well paved, lighted with gas, and except in the busi- 
 aess portion shaded with maples. There are many 
 
 handsome residences and good public buildings. 
 Portland is the N. terminus of the O.C.RR. and is 
 connected by two fer [*ies with East Portland on the 
 opposite bank of the Willamette, the N. terminus of 
 the O.&C.RR. A semi-wkly line of steamers run to 
 Victoria, British Columbia, a tri-monthly line to San 
 Francisco, and a monthly line to Victoria and Sitka, 
 Alaska. There are also frequent lines to various 
 points on the Columbia and Willamette Rs. A daily 
 line to Kalama, Wash., 50 m. distant, connects with 
 the Pacific div. of the N.P.RR. for points on Puget 
 Sound. The trade and commerce of Portland are in- 
 creasing rapidly, the chief articles of shipment being 
 wheat, flour, salmon, and lumber. The greater part

 Portsmouth, N.IL, a city<f>, port of entry, 
 and semi-cap of Rockingham co., the only seaport in 
 the State, is built on a beautiful peninsula, on the S. 
 side of the Piscataqua R., abt. 3 m. from the ocean, 
 and on B.,L.&C. and E.RRs., 54 in. N. by E. from 
 Boston. The ground rises gradually from the harbor, 
 affording to the city a peculiarly pleasant and health- 
 ful situation. It is supplied with excellent water, 
 brought by an aqueduct from a fountain 3 m. dis- 
 tant, and has a good fire department. The Piscataqua 
 is from | to \ m. wide where, it passes the town, and 
 although the current has so much rapidity as to pre- 
 vent the river from freezing, it forms one of the most 
 secure and commodious harbors in the U. States, in- 
 to which ships of any size may enter with perfect 
 safety. It is well protected, by its islands, from the 
 N.E. storms, which are the most to be dreaded on 
 this coast, and can be easily defended, and rendered 
 perfectly impregnable, in time of war. The main 
 channel passes on the E. side of Great Island, on the 
 
 N.W. point of winch is Fort Constitution, and oppo- 
 site, in Kittery, is Fort McClary. On two other islands 
 are Forts Washington and Sullivan. There is another 
 entrance on the S. side of New Castle, called Little 
 Harbor, where the water is shoal and the bottom 
 sandy. The U. States navy yard, situated on the har- 
 bor of Portsmouth, is admirably located for its ob- 
 jects on an island called Continental, or Badger's 
 Island, on the E. side of the river, within the limits 
 of Kittery tp., Me. Here is every convenience for 
 the construction and repair of vessels of the largest 
 class, among which a balance dry dock, 350 ft. long, 
 121 ft. wide, and 72 ft. high. The value of the for- 
 eign commerce of Portsmouth is unimportant. In the 
 coastwise trade 1,067 vessels of 119,355 tons entered, 
 and 1,033 vessels of 120,527 tons cleared the port in 
 1880. In 1880 there were belonging to the port 71 
 sailing vessels of 10,505 tons and 6 steamers of 317 
 tons in aggregate. The manuf. are of considerable 
 extent, and include cotton fabrics (Kearsarge mills, 
 with 26,000 spindles), hoisery, ale and beer, boots 
 and shoes, carriages, medicinal cod-liver oil, copper 
 and brass foundry products, sleighs, soap, leather, 
 &c. Ship-building is also carried on. There are high 
 and graded schools, a commercial college and a 
 young ladies' seminary, the Portsmouth Alhenoeum 
 with a reading room, a library of .abt. 12,000 vol- 
 umes, and cabinets of minerals and natural his- 
 tory, 4 nat., 2 savings, and 1 other bank, 2 daily and 4 
 wkly papers, and abt. 12 churches. Portsmouth was

 Potomac, a river forming the S. boundary of 
 Md. through its whole course, dividing it from Va. 
 and W.Va. It rises by two main branches in the Al- 
 leghany Mts., called the N. branch and the S. branch : 
 and also receives numerous other streams frotn the 
 same elevated regions, which are among its more dis- 
 tant sources. The course of the two main branches 
 is N.E. at first, until the N. branch passes Cumber- 
 land, where it is inflected to the S.E. and breaks 
 through several ridges of elevated lauds into the val- 
 ley of the S. branch, and forms a junction with it. 
 From the junction, which is abt. 20 m. S.E. Cumber- 
 land, its course forms an irregular curve, first N.E. 
 and then generally S.E. until it reaches the city of 
 Washington. Thence flowing S. and S.W. it expands 
 into an estuary from 6 to 8 m. broad, and after a 
 course of 40 m. again changes to S.E. for abt. 70 ru. 
 and enters Chesapeake bay, 75 m. from the Atlantic, 
 the entire length being nearly 400 m. Its principal 
 tributary is the Shenandoah, which enters it just W. 
 of the Blue Ridge. Several other streams, but none 
 of considerable size, also contribute to its volume. 
 Of these the principal are the Savage and Monocacy 
 Rs., and the Oonegocheague, Patterson, Occoquan, 
 and Aquia Creeks, all of which are navigable for short 
 distances. The tide extends to Georgetown, 125 m. 
 from its mouth, and it is navigable for ships of the 
 line to the eHy of Washington. From its source to 
 tide water the river has a great descent. There are a 
 number of falls, including Houre's, the Shenandoah, 
 Seneca, Great, and Little ; and fromWestport to Wash- 
 ington, abt. 220 m. the difference in its altitude is 1,- 
 160 ft. It abounds in beautiful scenery, and its pas- 
 sage through the Blue Ridge at the junction of the 
 Shenandoah at Harper's Ferry ranks among the finest 
 natural curiosities of the country.

 Prairie (prarl), [French, a meadow], is a tract 
 of country in its natural state, covered with grass. In 
 this country the name has been applied by the early 
 French explorers to the great, fertile, treeless plains 
 ■which lie between O. and Mich, on the E. and the 
 arid plains on the W. The region over which they 
 mainly extend is the W. part of O., nearly the whole 
 of Ind., 111., and Iowa, the S. part of Mich., the N. 
 part of Mo., and portions of Wis., Kan., and Neb. 
 On the head waters of the Illinois and Wabash, and 
 S. and W. of Lake Michigan, the prairies are very 
 level and smooth, and are termed flat. Those of 
 other regions, where the surface is undulating and 
 broken by the depressions of the streams, are known 
 as rolling prairies. Trees are met with upon the prair- 
 ies under peculiar circumstances of moisture and 
 soil, in scattered groups, called groves, or along the 
 larger streams, or occasionally on low rocky ridges. 
 West of the Mississippi they become less frequent, 
 aud near Ion. 98° W. they disappear altogether. The 
 soil of the prairies is generally free from stones. In 
 the swales and in some of the bottom lands the rich 
 black vegetable mould is very deep, but on the up- 
 per prairies its depth is usually from one to two ft. 
 The subsoil is almost invariably an argillaceous loam, 
 more or less mixed in its lower portions with sand 
 and occasional pebbles. The vast plains lying be- 
 tween the 99th and 104th meridians, and reaching 
 from the Big Horn Mts. on the N. to the Llano Es- 
 tacado on the S., differ from the prairies in being 
 arid and partly desert, although irrigation generally 
 renders them very fertile. The mound prairies near 
 Puget Sound, and in other parts of the Pacific coast, 
 are so called because they are thickly studded with 
 earth mounds, generally 3 or 4 ft. high and 30 to 40 
 ft. in diameter at the base.

 — the largest city in the State, port of entry, cap. of 
 Providence co., and semi cap. of the State, is the 2d 
 city of New England in wealth and pop. It is situated 
 at the head of navigation on Providence R. (an arm 
 of Narraganset Bay), and on the B.&P., the N.Y.& 
 N.E., the P.&S., the P.&W., the N.Y..P.&B., and 
 the P.,W.&B.RRs., 35 m. from the sea, 30 m. N.N.W. 
 Newport, 40 m. S.W. Boston, and 169 m. N.E. New 
 York. The river extends to the centre of the city 
 when it expauds into a cove nearly a mile in circum- 
 ference, surrounded by an elm shaded park, which, 
 in its situation and capability, is one of the most at- 
 tractive features of any city in the country. The land 
 on the E. side of the river is hilly, attaining, at its 
 greatest height, 204 ft. above tide water. The soil is 
 rich and heavy. On the W. side of the river the land 
 is more level, and the soil light and sandy, its great- 
 est height above tide water being only 78 ft. The 
 harbor of Providence is safe and commodious, but it 
 is not safely approached by large vessels without a 
 pilot. Commerce was the favorite pursuit of the citi- 
 zens of Providence at an early period of its history. 
 The East India business, before 1812, was pursued 
 with great success for many years. Since that period, 
 this and all foreign commerce has gradually declin- 
 ed. The value of imports from foreign countries for 
 the year 1882 was §124,094; exports, §1,214. There 
 is still a large amount of coasting business done in 
 Providence. There were belonging to the port in 1882 
 115 sailing vessels of 15, 104 tons, and 29 steam vessels 
 of 22,440 tons. But for years the atteution of the 
 money-making part of the community has been with- 
 drawn from commerce and fixed on manuf. Much 
 of the capital and enterprise of Providence men is 
 invested in the manuf. establishments in and near 
 its borders. The water power is occupied to its full 
 extent, besides which there are in operation a large 
 number of steam engines. They are employed in 
 grinding grain, sawing and polishing marble, print- 
 ing, bleaching, calendering, and dyeing cloths, saw- 
 ing and planing lumber, driving bellows in furnaces 
 and foundries, manuf. machinery, screws, nails, rub- 
 ber shoes, small wares, furniture, power loom pick- 
 ers, carriages, iron, gold and silver wares, fire-arms, 
 cotton and woolen goods, refining gold and silver, 
 &e. The most prominent industry is the manuf. of 
 gold jewelry, in which are engaged abt. 150 estab- 
 lishments of all sizes. There are abt. 25 establishments 
 engaged in the manuf. of woolen cloths, yarns, &c, 
 and worsted goods, and abt. 50, with 150,000 spindles, 
 in the manuf. of printing cloths, yarns, battings, 
 thread, spool cotton, lacings, braids, &c. Provi- 
 dence is the leading market for the trade in cloth 
 printing, and has the largest manuf. of solid silver 
 ware and of "small wares" in the world. There are 
 25 nat. banks having an aggregate capital of §12,000,- 
 000 ; 9 State banks ; 7 savings banks ; and 6 private 
 bankers. The city is noted for its elegant and spa- 
 cious private residences, surrounded by beautiful and 
 expensive grounds. The most noteworthy buildings 
 are the arcade, the largest of the kind in the U. 
 States, the city hall, the State house, the county 
 court-house, the opera house, the Butler exchange, 
 the Union depot, and the Narragansett hotel. There 
 are also several handsome churches. Westminster 
 Street is the main business thoroughfare. On the 
 
 heights in the E. section of the city are the spacious 
 grounds and substantial buildings of Brown univer- 
 sity, an old and important institution of learning, 
 founded in 1764. Its library numbers over 50,000 
 volumes and is housed in a handsome fire-proof 
 building. The museum of natural history is rich in 
 specimens, and the art collection iucl udes some good 
 portraits. The grounds comprise 16 acres, and are 
 snaded with grand old elms. The Rhode Island his- 
 torical society has a fine brick and granite build- 
 ing opposite the University grounds, in which are 
 a valuable library and some interesting historical 
 relics. The Athenaeum is a substantial granite build- 
 ing, containing a reading-room, a library of 38,000 
 volumes, and some valuable paintings. The Butler 
 hospital for the insane occupies large and imposing 
 buildings on the W. bank of Seekonk R., surrounded 
 by extensive grounds and commanding broad views. 
 The Dexter asylum for the poor is a fine edifice of 
 brick, situated on elevated land in the N.E. part 
 of the city. The Rhode Island hospital has stately 
 buildings surrounded by pleasant grounds in the S. 
 part of the city, fronting on the harbor. The reform 
 school is in the S.E. section of the city, and near by 
 is the home for aged women. The State farm, in 
 Cranston, comprises 500 acres, and contains the 
 State prison, work-house, house of correction, alms- 
 house, and State hospital for the insane. The city 
 has always been noted for the number and effective- 
 ness of its public schools and higher institutions of 
 learning, among the latter of which, besides Brown 
 university are the yearly meeting boarding school, 
 under the control of the society of Friends, 3 flourish- 
 ing Roman Catholic academies, and the female 
 academy of the sacred heart of Jesus. There are 5 
 daily and 15 weekly and monthly papers and periodi- 
 cals. The city is divided into 10 wards, and is govern- 
 ed by a mayor, a board of aldermen of 10, and a 
 common council of 40 members, elected annually. It 
 is liberally, since 1871, supplied with excellent water 
 from Pawtuxet R.,6 m. distant, the waterworks costing 
 abt. §4,500.000. The police force numbers abt. 200 
 men, and there is an efficient paid fire department, 
 consisting of 150 officers and men, divided into 5 
 steam-engines, 6 hose, and 3 hook and ladder com- 
 panies. Providence was settled by Roger Williams in 
 1636, received its first patent in 1643, suffered much 
 in the war of King Philip in 1675, and was incor- 
 porated as a city in 1832. Pop. in 1800. 7,614 ; in

 N.W. portion of the territory, for a distance in a di- 
 rect Hue of about 80 m. Its principal constituents 
 are Admiralty Inlet, Puget Sound proper, the S. ter- 
 mination of this inlet, and Hood's Canal. Admiralty 
 inlet extends from Strait of Fuca a little E. of S., 
 with an average breadth of nearly 6 in., for 70 m., 
 and communicates with the sound proper through 
 the ""Narrows, " 1 m. wide and 4 m. long. The 
 sound extends S. W. from the Narrows, ramifying 
 into numerous bays and inlets, and containing many 
 islets. Hood's Canal branches off from Admiralty 
 Inlet 18 m. S. of the Strait of Fuca, and extends 
 S.W., with an average breadth of 2 m., for 50 m., 
 when it bends abruptly and extends N.E. for 15 m., 
 nearly connecting with the waters of the sound. 
 Hood's Canal on the one baud and Admiralty Inlet 
 and the sound on the other, enclose a peninsula of 
 which Kitsap co. forms the greater part. "Nothing 
 can exceed " says Admiral Wilks, in a report to the 
 Navy Department," the beauty of the^e waters and 
 their safety. Not a shoal exists within the Straits of 
 Juan de Fuca, Admiralty Inlet or Hood's Canal that 
 can in any way interrupt their navigation by a 74- 
 gun ship. I venture nothing in saying there is no 
 country in the world that possesses waters equal to 
 these. They cover an area of abt. 2,000 sq. m. The 
 shores of all these inlets and bays are remarkably 
 bold; so much so that in many places a ship's side 
 would strike the shore before her kneel would touch 
 the ground. The country by which these waters are 
 surrounded is remarkably salubrious and offers every 
 advantage for the accommodation of a vast commer- 
 cial and military marine, with convenience for docks 
 and a great many sites for towns and cities, at all 
 times well supplied with water and capable of being 
 well provided with everything by the surrounding 
 country, which is well adapted for agriculture. The 
 Straits of Juan de Fuca are 95 m. in length and have 
 an average width of 11 m. At the entrance (8 m. in 
 width) no danger exists and it may be safely navigat- 
 ed throughout. No part of the world affords finer 
 inland sounds or a greater number of harbors than 
 are found within the Straits of Juan de Fuca, capa- 
 
 ble of receiving the largest class of vessels, and 
 without a danger in them which is net visible. From 
 the rise and fall of the tides (18 feet) every facility 
 is offered for the erection of works for a great mari- 
 time nation. The country also affords as many sites 
 for water-power as any other." There is a slight error 
 in the report as to the" length of the straits, but it is 
 correct in everything else. The whole length of the 
 shore line of Puget Sound, as shown by the Coast 
 Survey, is as follows : —

 The statistics of the Puget Sound trade are very

 leaves the sound in coasting vessels, and no record 
 is kept of the quantity they ship.

 Red River, the first large river which enters 
 the Mississippi above its mouth, coming down from 
 the far S.W. It rises in the Llano Estacado or great 
 Stake Plain in the Pan-Handle of Texas, in lat. 34° 
 40' N., Ion. 103° 2' W. It flows E. to the 100th meri- 
 dian, then S. and E. by S., separating Texas from 
 Indian T. and Arkansas, and entering the latter State, 
 bends to the S., passes into Louisiana, and afterwards 
 flows S.E. until it falls into the Mississippi, 341 m. 
 below its mouth. Its length is abt. 1,200 m., and its 
 basin is abt. 97,000 sq. m. in extent. Its remotest 
 drainage-slope is on an elevated and barren plain, 2,- 
 450 ft. above sea-level, marked by no channels or 
 hills, but by a few isolated water-holes, which from 
 time immemorial have been designated by stakes to 
 guide even the Indian traveler. The imperceptible 
 slopes converge at abt. Ion. 102° on the same lat., 
 and then enter a canyon of more than 100 m. in 
 length amid broken mountains, and of such depth 
 (500 to 1,000 ft.) and such steepness as to be inacces- 
 sible, so far as known, except at the two extremities. 
 This remarkable chasm has a varying breadth of 5 to 
 20 m., said to have a soil of great fertility. It is owned 
 and held by Comanches and Stake Plain Indians, who 
 effectually guard it against white intrusion. On emerg- 
 ing from the canyon, the river flows overa broad bed 
 of light shifting sands through an arid prairie country 
 to the " cross timbers " a belt of woodland between 
 the 98th and 97th meridians. Below this the river 
 flows through rich and densely wooded alluvial bot- 
 toms. Here the borders contract, and the water for 
 a great portion of the year washes both banks, carry- 
 ing the loose alluvium from one side and depositing it 
 on the other, in such a manner as to produce constant 
 changes in the channel, and to render navigation 
 difficult. This character continues throughout the 
 rest of its course ; and in this section it is subject to 
 heavy inundations, which often flood the bottoms to 
 such a degree as to destroy the crops, and occasion- 
 ally leave a deposit of white sand, rendering the soil 
 barren and worthless. Its depth greatly varies, be- 
 ing only 6 or 8 ft., even in floods, throughout the des- 
 ert, while it is some 50 ft. in the fertile region. In 
 extreme low water a depth of 3 ft. may be depended 
 upon below Alexandria, about 4 ft. thence to the 
 head of the raft, and 1 ft. thence to Fort Towson 
 (Ind. Ter.). Steamers of 4 ft. draught can ascend to 
 Shreveport, La. (330 m. above its' mouth), at any 
 time except in extreme low water, but to Fort Tow- 
 son or even Fulton for only about three months in 
 the year, and frequently only run in one direction 
 during a single rise. The raft, an immense collection 
 of trees and drift wood, extending abt. 15 m. from 
 Shreveport above, has long obstructed the navigation 
 but in 1873 a navigable channel was opened through 
 its whole length. Red R. receives its name from its 
 peculiar color, supposed to be derived from the red 
 clay of the gypseous formation through which its up- 
 per course lies. The chief tributaries on the left bank 
 are the North fork (a little W. of the 99th meridian) 
 and theWashita, in Indian Ter., Little R. in Arkansas, 
 and Black R,, formed by the Washita and Tensas, 
 which enters in Louisiana not far from theMississippi. 
 On the right bank the chief tributaries are the 
 Pease and Big Wichita Rs., which enter from W. 
 Texas. In Louisiana, RedR. sends off numerous bay- 
 ous, which find their way back again to the main 
 stream, forming frequent lakes.

 Rhode Island, a New England State, the 
 smallest in the Union, bounded N. and E. by Massa- 
 chusetts, S. by the Atlantic Ocean, and W. by Con- 
 necticut. It is situated between lat. 41° 8' and 42° 3' 
 N.,lon. 71° 8' and 71° 53' W. The greatest length is 48 
 m., thebreadth 39 m., and the area, (including water 
 surface) 1.250 sq. m. The natural features of the State 
 are somewhat peculiar.' About one-tenth part of it is 
 water, and of the residue, a very considerable portion 
 is made up of islands. The interior, with the ex- 
 ception of the intervales along the streams, is generally 
 rough and hilly, better adapted to grazing than to 
 the raising of grain. The most considerable hills in 
 the State are Mount Hope in Bristol, Pine in Exeter, 
 Easehahoague and Hopkins in West Greenwich, 
 Chopmist in Scituate, Neutaconkanet in Johnston, 
 Woonsocket in Smithfield, and Diamond in Cum- 
 berland. Narragansett Bay, which divides the State 
 into two unequal parts, leaving far the greater 
 portion on the West, extends N. from the Atlantic 
 Ocean a distance of 28 m. It is from 3 to 12 m. wide, 
 and holds in its embrace the islands of Aquidneck, 
 or Rhode Island, Canonicut, and several smaller ones. 
 The first named, which has been called the "Eden 
 of America," is 15 m. long, from 3 to 31 m. wide, and 
 contains abt. 50 sq. m. It comprises the city of New- 
 port, the town of Middletown, and the greater part 
 of Portsmouth. Newport near its S. end, is a cele- 
 brated watering place. Newport harbor, which lies 
 between Canonicut and Rhode Island, is one of the 
 finest in the world, and has a depth of water suffi- 
 cient for the largest ships. Canonicut is 7 m. long and 
 about 1 m. wide, and forms the town of Jamestown. 
 Projecting southward from the mainland on the E. 
 is a peninsula which divides Narragansett Bay and 
 forms Mt. Hope Bay, at the head of which Taunton 
 R., enters. In the Atlantic, abt. 10 m. S. by W. of 
 Point Judith (at the W. entrance of Narragansett 
 Bay), is Block Island. R.I. has 3 considerable rivers, 
 which, though none of them navigable for any great 
 distance, afford valuable water-power; these are — 
 the Paweatuck, called above the town of that name 
 the Blaekstone, the Pawtuxet. which flows S.E. .and 
 the Paweatuck, which flows through the W. portion 
 of the State and forms a part of the boundary be* 
 tween Rhode Island and Connecticut. — The W. half 
 of the State and a small tract along the E. shore 
 of Narragansett Bay are Eozoic, but a tract covering 
 all the islands of Narragansett Bay and part of its 
 western shore belongs to the Carboniferous era and 
 forms the easternmost bed of anthracite in the U. 
 States. The coal has not been esteemed as equal to 
 the Pennsylvania anthracite in quality, though per- 
 haps even more extensive in quantity, but it improves 
 
RHO

 RHO 
 
 in quality as lower strata are reached. About 10,000 
 to 15,000 tons are annually mined. Excellent iron ore 
 is found in various parts of the State, and lime of 
 the best quality is burned from the limestones at Lime 
 Rock, which belong to the coal measures and 
 abound in fossil plants. Sandstone, serpentine and 
 marble abound in several parts of the State, and 
 excellent brick are made from the clay of Providence 
 co. — The soil of the State is for the most part moder- 
 ately fertile, though the gravelly and pebbly soil of 
 the W. part, and the sand-dunes and salt marshes of 
 the S. VV., are exceptions ; but much of it is broken, 
 rocky and difficult of cultivation. The islands of 
 Narragansett Bay and the region drained by Pawtuck- 
 et and Pawtuxet Rs., is the most arable. — The vege- 
 tation does not differ materially from that of Mas- 
 sachusetts and Connecticut, though, from the pre- 
 sence of a large body of landlocked water like 
 Narragansett Bay, the temperature is somewhat 
 milder than that of either of the adjacent States. 
 About one-fourth of the surface is in woodland. The 
 flora and fauna also of the State are almost without 
 exception those of Massachusetts and Connecticut. 
 Narragansett Bay is a favorite resort for the duck, 
 brant and teal families, and the swamps and marshes 
 adjacent for snipe, woodcock and grouse. — The cli- 
 mate, though modified to some extent by the influ- 
 ence of the bay, is not materially different from that 
 of the adjacent States. The summer climate of New- 
 port is delightful ; the E. winds are tempered by the 
 breadth of land over which they come, and the S. 
 winds become mild by the influence of the Gulf 
 Stream. Careful observations upon meteorology were 
 made by Professor Caswell, of Brown university, at 
 Providence, during a period of 29 years. The mean 
 of Feb. (the coldest month) for the whole period 
 was 26.73°, and the mean of July (the warmest month), 
 70.69°. The highest annual mean was 49.86°, and the 
 lowest, 44.62°; meau for the 29 years, 48.19°. Fifteen 
 degrees below zero was the lowest temperature re- 
 corded, and 94 degrees above the highest, giving a 
 range of 109 degrees. The largest annual rainfall was 
 53.27 inches, and the smallest, 30.96 inches ; mean 
 for the whole period, 40.38 inches. — R.I. is not an 
 agricultural State. Her pop. is too dense, and her 
 best lands too valuable for town-sites, to make farm- 
 ing, except in the way of market gardening, largely 
 profitable. The area of farming-lands in the State, 
 as in Massachusetts and Connecticut, has been gradu- 
 ally diminishing, mainly because the lands were be- 
 coming too valuable to be cultivated as farms. The 
 crops of cereals are never large enough for home con- 
 sumption. The principal products in the census year 
 1880 were 17,783 bush, of barley, 327,967 of corn, and 
 159,339 of oats. The live-stock in farms consisted of 9,- 
 661 horses, 3,523 working oxen, 21,460 milch cows, 10,- 
 601 other cattle, 17,211 sheep, and 14,121 hogs.— R.I. 
 is essentially a manuf. State. It stands 8th among 
 the States of the Union in the amount of capital en- 
 gaged, and 14th in the value of products ; but in 
 proportion to area or pop. it is unrivaled. In 1880 
 the State had 2,205 manuf. establishments, employ- 
 ing 62,878 hands ; capital invested, $75,575,943 ; wages 
 paid during the year, $21,355,619 : value of materials, 
 $58,103,443 : value of products, $104,163,621. The first 
 cotton-mill in the U. States was erected in R.I., which 
 now stands next to Mass. in this branch of indus- 
 try. In 1880 there were 115 cotton-mills working 29,- 
 660 looms and 1,764,569 spindles employing 21,474 
 hands; capital invested, $28,047,331; wages paid 
 during the year, $5,320,303 ; bales of cotton consumed 
 177,480 ; value of materials, $12,291,437 ; value of pro- 
 duets, $22,875,111. The other leading industries are 
 printing, cotton and woolen goods, bleaching and 
 dyeing,woolen goods, machinery, cotton and woolens, 
 jewelry, worsted goods, screws, India-rubber and 
 elastic goods. The State is divided into 3 customs 
 
 districts whose ports of entry are Bristol, Newport, 
 and Providence (which see). In 1882 there were 212 
 m. of railroad in operation in the State. — The public 
 schools are free, and are supported by State, town 
 and district taxes. In 1882 the number of children iu 
 the State between the ages of 5 and 15 years was 52,- 
 273 ; children attending public schools, 33,504 ; num- 
 ber of schools, 824 ; number of teachers, 889 ; expen-

 of Friends at Providence has a property valued at 
 $850,000. The newly established school for the deaf, 
 which has been established only four years, is on a suc- 
 cessful basis, and has 25 pupils. The permanent school 
 fund of the State is $266,950. The penal, correctional, 
 and charitable institutions on the State farm at Crans- 
 ton cost $147,190 for support during the year 1881. 
 A new reform school, with separate departments for

 ings are not yet complete. In 1882 the work-house 
 and house of correction contained 180 men and 57 
 women ; the asylum for the incurable insane, 113 
 men and 132women. — R.I. is divided into 8 cos., viz.: 
 Bristol, Kent, Newport, Providence and Washington. 
 Providence and Newport are the capitals ; the other 
 cities are Lincoln, Pawtucket, Warwick, and Woon- 
 socket. The legislature consists of a senate of 36 
 members, and a house of representatives of 72 mem- 
 bers. They hold two sessions annually, the principal 
 one at Newport, and an adjourned one at Providence 
 in Oct. The executive power is vested in a governor 
 and lieutenant-governor, both annually elected by 
 the people. The secretary of State, attorney general, 
 general treasurer, and State auditor, are also chosen 
 by the people. The commissioner of public schools 
 was for many years appointed by the governor and 
 senate, but is now chosen by the board of education. 
 The judicial power is vested in a supreme court, 
 consisting of 1 chief-justice and 4 associate justices, 
 which holds its sessions twice a year in each co., 
 and has both appellate and original jurisdiction ; 
 of courts of common pleas, presided over by one of 
 the associate justices of the supreme court, also 
 holding sessions twice a year in each co. ; of justices' 
 courts ; and of probate courts, the judges of which 
 in Providence, Pawtucket, and East Providence, 
 are elected by the general assembly. The State 
 sends 2 members to congress, and has 4 electoral 
 votes. The State debt in 1S82 was $2,521,500. The 
 receipts into the treasury for the year 1881 amounted 
 to $919,792; expenditures, $794,685. The val. of tax- 
 able prop, was $328,530,559 (real estate, $243,658,190: 
 personal, $84,872,369).— The official designation of 
 the State is "the State of R.I. and Provideuce Plan- 
 tation." It was first settled by Roger Williams, who 
 fled from religious persecution in Mass., in June, 
 1636. He received a grant of territory from the Nar- 
 ragansett Indians, March 24, 1638, and obtained a 
 charter in 1644, which was renewed by Charles II. in 
 1663, and remained in force till 1842 when— after an 
 insurrection, in which a number of the people took 
 up arms under Wilson Dorr, who was made prisoned 
 —a new constitution was agreed to, and became into 
 force in 1843. R.I. suffered much from the Indian 
 wars, until the defeat and death of Philip, king of 
 the AVampauoags. It was seized by the English, Dec. 
 8, 1776 ; attacked by the French and Americans mm 
 out effect, Aug. 8, 1778 ; abandoned by the English 
 in 1779; and occupied by the French, July 11, 1780. 
 R.I. was the last of the States that gave in their 
 adherence to the federal constitution, which was 
 done in May, 1790. Pop. in 1790, 68,825 ; in 1830, 97,- 
 199 ; in 1860, 174,620 ; in 1870, 217,353; in 1880, 2<6,-

 Richmond, Va., a port of entry, the cap. and 
 largest city of the State, also cap. of Henrico co., 
 is pleasantly situated on the N. side of James R. here 
 crossed by 5 bridges, immediately below the falls, at 
 the head of tide-water, and 150 m. from its mouth, 
 on the R.&P., the R.,F.&P., the C.&O., R.&D., 
 and R.,Y.R.&C.RRs., 116 m. S.S.W. of Wash- 
 ington by rail. Directly opposite to Richmond, 
 and connected to it by two bridges, is Manches- 
 ter, which may be regarded as a suburb of the 
 city. From its peculiarly favorable situation, be- 
 tween the upper and the lower country, Rich- 
 mond is one of the most healthy cities in the 
 U. States. Seldom, if ever, has it been visited with 
 yellow fever, or any desolating epidemic. The city is 
 divided into two unequal parts by a valley, through 
 which passes the Shockoe Creek, to enter James R. 
 It is chiefly built upon the more elevated grounds on 
 either side of this depression, which present a beauti- 
 ful variety of surface, and afford in many parts highly 
 picturesque situations for dwellings and for public 
 edifices, Shockoe Hill, on the W. part of the city, 
 and Richmond Hill stand opposite to each other, 
 with the creek between them ; and near the E. limit 
 is Church Hill, which is also a commanding emi- 
 nence. Over these elevated grounds, and the valley 
 between them, declining towards the river, the 
 
 streets and buildings of the city are spread. The 
 streets mostly cross each other at right angles, and 
 are most commonly 65 ft. in width. Near the brow 
 of Shockoe Hill which is an elevated plain, and a 
 favorite place of residence, is Capitol Square, a 
 beautiful public ground, containing abt. 9 acres, 
 surrounded by a handsome iron railing, ornamented 
 with gravel walks, and shaded with a variety of 
 trees. In the centre stands the State house, which is 
 remarkable for its commanding position, and its 
 chaste yet beautiful proportions. It is a Grgeco-Com- 
 posite building, adorned with a portico of Ionic 
 columns, the plan having been furnished by Thomas 
 Jefferson after that of the Maisou Carree at Nimes, 
 in France. The view from the platform on the roof 
 is extensive and beautiful. In an open hall, in the 
 centre of the building within, is placed the celebrated 
 marble statue of Washington^ by Houdon, which 
 was erected in 1788, during the lifetime of Washing- 
 ton. On the E. Capitol Square are also the governor's 
 mansion, a bronze equestrian statue of Washington, 
 a marble statue of Henry Clay, and Foley's statue of 
 Gen. " Stonewall" Jackson. Richmond has a fine 
 system of public free schools, including a high school. 
 Private schools for both sexes are also numerous, in- 
 cluding Richmond college for males and Richmond 
 female institute for girls and young ladies. The 
 medical college of Va. was established in 1851. The 
 Roman Catholics have several excellen t schools under 
 their control, and for the higher education of the 
 colored people there are the Richmond normal school 
 and the Colver theological institute. The city has 52 
 churches. Besides the State central lunatic asylum 
 (for colored insane), and the city almshouse, there 
 are a number of orphan asylums, homes, etc., sus- 
 tained by the various denominations and private 
 charity. The State penitentiary is also here. The city 
 has an excellent police, and its efficient fire depart- 
 ment has 5 steam engines. The city owns and oper- 
 ates its own gas and water-works. The water power 
 afforded by the falls is immense and easily utilized, 
 but comparatively little of it has yet been taken ad- 
 vantage of. The falls of James R. afford immense 
 water power. Vessels drawing 16 ft. can ascend to 
 within a mile of the centre of the city, at a place 
 called Rockets, and those of 18 ft, draught to War- 
 wick, 3 m. below. A canal has been built around the 
 falls, and above them there is navigation for over 200 
 m. Improvements are in progress in the river, which 
 are expected to render the docks accessible by 
 vessels drawing 19 ft. The James R. and Kanawha 
 canal extend to Buchanan, 195 m. Regular lines of 
 steamers run to Norfolk, Baltimore, Philadelphia, 
 and New York. Richmond had in 1S80 702 manuf. es- 
 tablishments, employing 16,932 hands ; and the sale 
 of their products amounted to $24,705,083. The 
 manuf. included iron-works, machine shops, foun- 
 dries, sugar refineries, cigar factories, coach and 
 wagon factories, furniture, sheetings and shirtings, 
 and stoneware. The value of its foreign commerce 
 for the year 1882 was as follows: imports, $125,607 ; 
 exports, $1,685,311. The number of entrances was 28 
 of 8,378 tons ; clearances, 81 of 37,651 tons. Number 
 of vessels belonging to the district, 59 of 6,468. In 
 1882 there were 4 nat., 5 State and 8 private banks, 40 
 newspapers and periodicals, of which 5 were daily. — 
 Richmond was founded in 1737, was incorporated in 
 1742, and became the State cap. in 1779, at which 
 period it was a small village. In 1861 it was made 
 the capital of the Southern confederacy ; and one of 
 the great aims of the federal authorities, throughout 
 the war, was to reduce it into their possession. The 
 obstinacy with which the confederates defended 
 it was a proof of the great importance they at- 
 tached to its retention. When General Lee evacu- 
 ated Petersburg, April 2, 1865, the troops defend- 
 ing Richmond on the E. were withdrawn, and

 to prevent the tobacco warehouses and public- 
 stores from falling into the hands of the federal 
 forces, the buildings — together with the bridges 
 over James R. — were fired. This resulted in the 
 destruction of a large part of the business sec- 
 tion of the city, the number of buildings destroyed 
 having been estimatedat 1,000, and the loss at§8,0'00,- 
 000. With the cessation of hostilities, Richmond set 
 to work to rebuild her blackened quarters, which she 
 has now almost wholly accomplished, and the city is 
 rapidly surpassing its former prosperity. Pop. in

 Rochester, N. Y., city, port of entry, and cap. 
 of Monroe co., is situated on both sides of the Gene- 
 see R., 7 ni. S. from its entrance into Lake Ontario, on 
 the Erie Canal and on the N.Y.C.&H.R., the N.Y., 
 L.E.&W., the R.&L.O., and the R.&P.RRs., 250 m. 
 W.N.W. of Albany and 69 m. E. by N. of Buffalo, 
 by rail. The Erie Canal crosses the Genesee by an 
 aqueduct of cut stone, built at an expense of $600,- 
 000, and the Genesee Valley Canal, a tributary to the 
 Erie, hasitsN. terminus here. Thecityis regularly laid 
 out with wide and handsome streets, of which many 
 are lined with shade trees. Within the city limits 
 the Genesee undergoes a descent of 268 ft., falling in 
 3 distinct cataracts within the distance of 2 m. These 
 cataracts evidently formed at one time a single cas- 
 cade, but the different degrees of hardness of the 
 several rocks have caused an unequal retrograde 
 movement of the falls, until they have assumed their 
 present position. At the Upper Falls, the water de- 
 scends 96 ft. over the perpendicular face of Niagara 
 limestone, underlaid by shale. Below it, the river 
 flows between nearly perpendicular walls abt. 1{ m. 
 to the Middle Falls, where it has a descent of 25 ft. 
 One hundred rods below, it descends 84 ft. at the 
 Lower Falls, over a ledge of Medina sandstone to 
 the level of Lake Ontario. The magnificent water- 
 power thus afforded, located in the midst of one of 
 the finest wheat growing regions in the world, in con- 
 nection with the facilities of transportation afforded 
 by the Erie Canal, Lake Ontario, and the railways, 
 have given a powerful impulse to the prosperity of 
 the place, and it has become one of the most impor- 
 tant manuf. cities in the State. In earlier years, flour 
 was the chief prod., and although now dwarfed by 
 other branches, it is still of great importance, there 
 being 18 mills, grinding annually, with 75 run of 
 stone, 2,500,000 bush, of wheat. The manuf. interests 
 of Rochester are both immense and diversified. 
 Ready-made clothing is by far the largest manuf. ; 
 boots and shoes rank next. The other leading 
 branches of industry are India rubber goods, iron 
 bridges, flour barrels, breweries, tobacco factories, 
 cigar making, carriages, furniture, optical instru- 
 ments, perfumery, steam-engines, blast-furnaces, 
 fruit-canning, glassware, bank locks, agricultural 
 machinery, &c. The greatest nurseries of America 
 are here. Thousands of acres, within five mile of the 
 city, are devoted to the culture of fruit trees, and 
 millions of trees are annually sent abroad to other 
 States and foreign lands. The annual product of these 
 nurseries is $2,000,000. The direct foreign commerce 
 of Rochester is with Canada. The exports at the port 
 of Genesee for the year 1882, were valued at $362,- 
 531 ; imports, $753,236. The city is becoming a great 
 distributing centre for coal, which is loaded from 
 railroads on the bauks of the river directly into ves- 
 sels, which convey it to all points on the lakes in 
 yearly increasing quantities. The business centre of 
 the fertile Genesee Valley, Rochester, exhibits a 
 steady growth in business and wealth, which 
 has never been seriously checked since its founda- 
 tion. A magnificent system of water-works has 
 recently been constructed at a cost of $3,250,000, 
 with two sources of supply — one from the river, the 
 water being forced through 8 m. of mains in the busi- 
 ness centre by the Holly system, and is used for sup-

 pressing fires and running light machinery ; the other 
 is from Hemlock Lake, 29 m. S. and 400 ft. above the 
 city. There is a receiving reservoir of 85,000,000 gal- 
 lons capacity, and a distributing reservoir of 45,000,000 
 gallons, sending water through 60 m. of mains. The 
 two systems can be connected in case of accident to 
 either, and thus a certain supply is guaranteed. The 
 pressure on the mains is such as to throw from the 
 hydrants a stream 130 ft. perpendicularly, and no city 
 is more perfectly guarded from fire. Atthe corner of 
 W. Main and State sts. are the Powers buildings, a 
 tubular block of stores, built of stone, glass and iron, 
 7 stories high. Iu the upper halls is a fine collection 
 of paintings, and on the top is a tower from which 
 may be obtained a fine view of the city and its sur- 
 roundings. Near it is the Arcade, roofed over with 
 glass, and containing numerous shops. Nearly oppo- 
 site is the county court-house, in which is the athen- 
 a?um with a library of 20,000 volumes. Back of the 
 court-house is the city hall, a handsome building of 
 gray limestone, 138 by 80 ft., with a tower 175 ft, high. 
 The most ornate business block in the city is the 
 Rochester savings bank, cor. W. Main and Fitzhugh 
 sts. The finest church edifices are the First Baptist, 
 the First Presbyterian, and St. Patrick's Cathedral 
 (Roman Catholic). There are twelve spacious parks, 
 and four elegant bridges over the Genesee. The uni- 
 versity of the city of Rochester is located on a tract 
 of twelve acres, just E. of the city limits. It was 
 founded by the Baptists in 1850, and has a valuable 
 library, and fine mineralogical cabinet. Conuected 
 with it is the Baptist theological seminary. This has 
 a German departinent,and a library of 15,000 volumes. 
 The Western house of refuge, a State reform school 
 for vicious boys, is a large and imposing edifice, abt. 
 
 1 m. N. of the centre of the city, containing usually 
 abt. 400 inmates. There are two large hospitals, St. 
 Mary's, under the management of the Sisters of 
 Charity, the other a city institution. Mount Hope 
 cemetery is located in Brighton, near the S. line of 
 the city, on Mount Hope, a beautiful eminence over- 
 looking the city. It is laid out in excellent taste, and 
 is one of the finest rural cemeteries in the country. 
 In 1882, the city had 3 nat., 2 State, and 4 savings 
 banks, 34 newspapers and periodicals, of which 0 
 were daily. Rochester was first settled in 1810, and 
 was incorporated as a city in 1834. Pop. in 1820,

 Rocky Mountains. Along the whole of the 
 Western side of North America, from near the mouth 
 )f the Mackenzie in the Arctic Ocean, and from Alas- 
 ka on the Pacific shore, to the Isthmus of Nicaragua 
 and Panama, that is, across 60° of lat. from N. to S., 
 extends with a grand double curve the continuous 
 length of the Rocky Mts., and others which prolong 
 the line, having a position in North America similar 
 to that of the Andes in South America, and shutting 
 off, in some parts, a comparatively narrow portion of 
 the continent, with the Pacific shore, from the great 
 
 central plain. But several minor ranges, branching 
 off or confronting the principal mountain ridge or 
 backbone of North America, enclose large spaces of 
 a table-land, traversed by the Columbia, the Fraser, 
 and the Colorado Rs., with those which join them, 
 and holding the Great Salt Lake of Utah in its cen- 
 tral basin. The Cascade Mts. of Washington and 
 Oregon, the Sierra Nevada of California, and the 
 Coast Range prolonged through the Californian 
 peninsula, have a general direction from N. toS.; 
 while the Wahsatch, the Humboldt, the Blue Mts., 
 the Salmon R., and other ranges, stand rather across 
 the table-land, or obliquely, from W. to E. It may 
 be convenient to speak of the former series, regarded 
 altogether, as the general Pacific Coast Range, which 
 we also observe to be continued northward, with 
 some intervals, beyond lat. 60° N., to the peninsula 
 of Alaska, presenting summits of increased height, 
 that of Mount St. Elias being above 17,000 ft., and 
 Mount Faii-weather nearly 15,000 ft. In the Cascade 
 Range are Mount St. Helens, N. of the Columbia R., 
 attaining an elevation of 15,750 ft.; Mount Hood and 
 Mount Jefferson, abt. 15,500 ft. The Sierra Nevada, 
 at its northern extremity, where it forms an acute 
 angle with the Coast Range, displays the lofty termi- 
 nal peak of Mount Shasta, having an altitude of 14,- 
 400 ft. The minor California Coast range nowhere 
 rises to 4,000 ft. The main Cordillera or spine of 
 Western North America, which in the British Domin- 
 ion and in the U. States territory is called the Rocky 
 Mts., but which takes the name of the Sierra Madre 
 in Mexico, and in the isthmus, farther S., is split 
 into two lower groups of avolcanic character, attains 
 the height of 16,000 ft. in Mount Brown, and 15,700 
 ft. in Mount Hooker, both near the 54th degree of 
 lat., above the source of the Saskatchewan R.; but 
 Fremont, in the Wind R. group, between Oregon 
 and Nebraska, is 13,560 ft. high, and there are peaks 
 of 10,000 ft. or 12,000 ft. in Utah and New Mexico. 
 The highest mountains, however, in North America, 
 excelling even Mount St. Elias, belong to a volcanic 
 series which crosses the table-land of Southern Mexi- 
 co from W. to E., and of which the culminating 
 points are Popocateptl, 17,884 ft., and Orizaba, 17,373 
 ft.; while Agua, in Guatemala, rises to 13,000 ft. 
 Thus we may remark, at each extremity of the Cor- 
 dillera, at its N. end, towards Alaska, and at its S. 
 end, in Central America, it is encountered by a clus- 
 ter of volcanoes, Mount St. Elias being one of this 
 description, which exceed the height of the Rocky 
 Mts. The spaces enclosed between the main trunk 
 and branches of this immense system of mountains 
 are several hundred miles wide, and their surface is 
 elevated 5,000 ft. or 6,000 ft. above the sea-level, as 
 in the Utah Lake basin, the Nevada territory, and 
 the plateau of Anahuac, or Southern Mexico, which 
 last has an elevation of 6,000 ft. to 8,000 ft., and has 
 therefore, a temperate climate within the tropics. — 
 In the U. States, the Pacific slope is drained by rivers 
 which flow into the Pacific Ocean. It embraces the 
 greater part of California, all of Oregon, and a part 
 of Washington, Idaho, Nevada, Utah, Colorado, Wyo- 
 ming, New Mexico and Arizona. It forms three sep- 
 arate divisions, the Northern, Southern and Western. 
 The Northern division embraces the section N. of 
 the great inland basin, between the Rocky Mts. and 
 the Cascade Range. This entire region is atable-laDd 
 with an average elevation of from 2,500 to 3,000 ft. 
 above the sea, and it is traversed by many broken 
 mountain ridges. It is a region of general sterility, 
 with the exception of some valleys where the soil is 
 better constituted for fertility and the rains are more 
 abundant ; but even these oases are better adapted 
 for grazing than for agriculture. The Southern divis- 
 ion includes the country lying between the Wahsatch 
 and Rocky Mts., which is drained by rivers flowing 
 into the Gulf of California. It is in general a table-

 land, with an average elevation of abt. 4,000 ft. above 
 sea level, and it is traversed, like the northern divis- 
 ion, by many broken mountain ranges. The Western 
 division embraces the country between this chain 
 and the Cascade Range and Sierra Nevada. This is a 
 region 1,200 in. in length by 120 m. in breadth, con- 
 taining an area of 144,000 sq. m. It is well watered 
 and exceedingly fertile. In the S. part of this divis- 
 ion, so extraordinary are the prolific influences of 
 the soil and climate, that the grasses, trees, fruit, 
 and grains attain a very remarkable development. 
 The principal rivers of the Pacific slope are the Colo- 
 rado, the Columbia, and the Sacramento. The Colo- 
 rado is one of the most remarkable rivers in the 
 world. Rising from numerous sources ten or twelve 
 thousand feet above the level of the sea, on the W. 
 side of the Rocky Mts., this great river descends into 
 the plateau of the same name, through which it has 
 worn its present wondrous channel, the walls of 
 which sink down perpendicularly from the edge of 
 the table-laud for a distance of "more than 300 m. 
 The distance from the top of the bank to the surface 
 of the river varies from 1,000 to 6,000 ft. The most 
 remarkable part of its course is the Big Canon, 
 which is in the N.W. corner of Arizona, aud begins 
 at the mouth of the Diamond R., abt. 35 m. from 
 Yamais Village. At this point its walls have an alti- 
 tude of 3,000 ft., but a few miles farther eastward 
 the table-laud rises to the altitude of more than 7,000 
 ft. above the sea, and the vast cliffs of the canon 
 tower to the height of more thau a mile above the 
 stream. The Columbia has its source in the Rocky 
 Mts., and plunging from these lofty ranges in cata- 
 racts and rapids through canons more than 1,000 ft. 
 in height enters the Pacific after a course of 1,200 
 m. The passage of the Columbia R. through the 
 Cascade Mts., which is known as "The Cascades," 
 is a scene of great grandeur and beauty. The Sacra- 
 meuto and its tributary, the San Joaquin, drain one 
 of the richest countries in the world, viz., the famous 
 gold-producing valleys of California. The high ranges 
 of Colorado extend N. into Wyoming, but they are 
 all of much less altitude than in Colorado. The Lara- 
 mie Range has an elevation of abt. 9,000 ft. It is 
 crossed by the U.P.RR. at Sherman, 8,269 ft. The 
 Medicine'Bow Range, which is an offshoot from the 
 Front Range, has abt. the same elevation as the Lara- 
 mie Range. Between them lie the beautiful Plains of 
 Laramie. The Park Range is the third and last of the 
 series. Beyond these, the country consists of a series 
 of high, cold, desert plateaux. The first swell in this 
 plateau, beyond the North Platte, separates the waters 
 of the Atlantic from those of the Pacific, the Platte 
 R. from the Green. Thence the country descends to 
 the Green R. basin, the arid valley upon which that 
 fugitive name " Great American Desert" has finally 
 been bestowed, and where it will probably remain. A 
 second rise of the plateau separates the waters of the 
 Pacific from those of the Great Basin, the Green R. 
 from the Bear. These divides are broad and flat, the 
 water partings are ill defined, and they contain 
 numerous salt lakes without outlets, and streams 
 which flow nowhere. The great system of ranges 
 known as the Rocky Mts. is composed of two sections, 
 separated by this great extent of plateaux, st retching 
 N.W. and S.E. for 200 m. The trans-continental 
 traveler on the U.P.RR., crosses this great depres- 
 sion between the ranges, and sees little or nothing 
 of the Rocky Mts. Toward the N. part of Wyomiug, 
 the mountain system suddenly starts again into being, 
 with a great breadth of alternate mountain and val- 
 ley. On the E., the Big Horn Range rises from the 
 plains to a height of 12,000 ft. above the sea-level. 
 Then follow the Big Horn basin and the valley of 
 Wind R., upon which frown the lofty, snow-capped 
 peaks of the Wind R. Range, with their glaciers and 
 eternal snow, and the rugged, volcanic peaks of the 
 
 Yellowstone Range. W. of the former lies the upper 
 part of the Green R. basin, at whose head are the 
 Gros Ventre and other mountains and hills abt. the 
 head of the Snake R. Here the country is all on edge. 
 There is but little valley country. Excepting Jack- 
 son's Hole, a valley at the base of the Tetons, the 
 valleys are mere gorges and canons. Beyond the 
 Yellowstone Range, which marks roughly the eastern 
 boundary of the Yellowstone Park (which see), the 
 country is mainly a high plateau, abt. 8,000 ft. above 
 sea-lcvel, densely timbered aud abundantly watered. 
 — The Great Inland basin, sometimes called " Fre- 
 mont's Basin," embraces nearly all of Nevada and 
 parts of Oregon, California, Idaho and Utah. This 
 singular region is a plateau with an average elevation 
 of 5,000 ft. above the level of the sea, surrounded by 
 rugged mountains. It is a dreary, desolate country, 
 abounding in salt lakes and alkaline springs, and it 
 has a system of lakes aud rivers of its own, having 
 no connection with the ocean. Great Salt Lake is 
 almost saturated with salt, the amount of saline mat- 
 ter being so large that no living thing can exist in it. 
 Utah Lake, a beautiful sheet of pure fresh water, 
 communicates with Great Salt Lake through the 
 river Jordan. The longest river in the Great Inland 
 Basin is the Humboldt R., which empties into Hum- 
 boldt Lake, called its " sink," because there is no 
 outlet. This river is 350 m. long, but is in no place 
 larger than a mill-stream. — The basin of the Red R. 
 of the N. embraces a part of Minnesota and Dakota. 
 The Missouri R. cuts Dakota into nearly equal parts. 
 E. of the river the country consists mainly of ele- 
 vated table-lands, the Coteaus du Missouri et des 
 Prairies. The former, which is the most western, 
 comes down in alongue tongue from the British pos- 
 sessions, occupying the space between the Missouri 
 and the James Rs. 'On the N., it is slightly above 2,000 
 ft. above the sea, with a gradual descent southward. 
 Its surface is somewhat uneven and broken, with 
 numerous "sinks" and ponds of alkaline water. 
 Vegetation is scanty ; and of timber there is practi- 
 cally none. The other plateau lies E. of the James 
 R., extending over into Western Minnesota. Its ele- 
 vation is slightly less than that of the Missouri 
 Coteau ; but its surface resembles very closely that 
 of the latter in its sinks and alkaline lakes. In 
 general, these coteaus are limited sharply by lines of 
 bluffs. In the N.E., the Coteau des Prairies breaks 
 down to the valley of the Red R. of the North, so 
 called to distinguish it from the Red R. of Louisiana. 
 This valley has become, of late, one of the greatest 
 wheat-producing regions of the N.W. Southward 
 the coteau sinks gradually to the fertile country near 
 the Missouri. W. of that river, the country as a whole 
 assumes a more forbidding aspect. On the lower 
 course of the Little Missouri and the Lower Yellow- 
 stone, much of the country is what, is known as " Bad 
 Lands." This is the worst section. Aside from it, the 
 whole region resembles the rest of the Great Plains, of 
 which it forms a part. The surface is level or gently 
 rolling. The vegetation is mainly bunch grass. As 
 we progress southeastward, however, beyond the 
 Cheyenne, we detect a marked amelioration in the 
 vegetation, consequent upon reaching a less arid 
 climate. The Niobrara has considerable large timber 
 along its course ; and the grasses grow much more 
 luxuriantly in this neighborhood. The Black Hills, 
 the only group of mountains in Dakota, lie within, 
 and closely embraced by the two forks of the 
 Cheyenne R. This group "has an elliptic shape, its 
 longer axis lying N.W. and S.E. Its highest peaks 
 range between "6,000 and 7,000 ft. above sea-level. 
 Its core is of granite, around which the sedimentary 
 formations are arranged in concentric ellipses, form- 
 ing long and beautifully curved "hogbacks," be- 
 tween which are beautiful valleys carpeted with lux- 
 uriant grasses and gay with flowers. For many years

 it had been a current tradition that there was gold 
 in the Black Hills ; but this report did not assume 
 tangible form until 1874, when some miners con- 
 nected with Gen. Custer's expedition found gold in 
 placers, iu paying quantities. The U. States army 
 attempted to stop the rush that ensued, upon the 
 ground that the hills were a part of the Sioux reser- 
 vation ; and for a time they succeeded in keeping 
 the miners off. This attempt was soon abandoned, 
 and the hills given over to the miners. The first dis- 
 coveries of gold were in placers, which were speedily 
 worked out. Then followed, iu due course, the dis- 
 covery of the sources of the placers, which are now 
 yielding largely and steadily. The mines of the Black 
 Hills produce gold only. In form the deposits are 
 true fissure veins. The ore is native gold, in quartz, 
 and is, in most mines, of a very low grade. This is 
 compensated for by the great breadth of the veins 
 and the fact that the ore can be worked in stamp 
 mills, and does not require smelting. Mining the ore 
 is very cheap thus far, as few mines have got to any 
 great depth below the surface, and it is simply a 
 question of quarrying. The total production of this 
 section in 1880 was $4,123,081.

 of entry, on the Atlantic coast, and cap. of St. John's 
 co., on St.J.&L.E.RR , 33 m. S.S.E. Jauesville. The 
 city stands back abt. 2 m. from the coast on the side 
 of a peninsula, and is shielded from the force of the 
 main ocean by Anastasia Island, which lies before it, 
 but is so low and narrow as not to intercept the sea 
 breezes. On the N. end of that island is a revolving 
 light, lat. 29° 53' N., Ion. 91° IS' W. The site of St. 
 Augustine is itself low, being not over 12 ft. above 
 the level of the ocean ; and the soil is rich in calcar- 
 eous and vegetable deposits. The climate here is reck- 
 oned equally mild and grateful with that of Italy or 
 the S. of France. There are only one or two months 
 in the year when frosts are ever experienced, and the 
 winters are sometimes passed entirely without them. 
 In the summer, too, the alternation of sea and land 
 breezes both tempers the heats by day and renders 
 the nights generally cool and pleasant. This is, there- 
 fore a favorite resort for invalids seeking to avoid the 
 more variable and rugged climate of the north. The 
 city lies in the form of a parallelogram, 1 m. long and 
 2 in. wide, fronting E. on Matanzas Sound, which 
 spreads i m. before it, forming a harbor, protected by 
 Anastasia Island, of large capacity and of perfect se- 
 curity. Not more than one-half the extent of the city 
 is compactly built, and much of this has yet an anti- 
 quated appearance. St. Augustine, indeed, is the 
 oldest city in the U. States, having been settled by 
 the Spaniards 43 years earlier than Jamestown, in 
 Virginia, by the English. The streets are generally 
 very narrow, some not more than 10 ft. wide, and the 
 principal ones not more than 15 to 18 ft. in width, 
 and sometimes very crooked. The houses in the com- 
 pact part of the city, are on a line with the street, aud 
 are generally two stories high, with the second story 
 projecting over the first. Until within a few years the 
 only material used in building was the coquiua rock, 
 a conglomerate of small sea shells, quarried ou An- 
 astasia Island aud dried hard in the sun. In the E. 
 part is a tine large square, opening from the sound, 
 on three sides of which are the court-house, a splen- 
 did Roman Catholic Church, an Episcopal Church, a 
 neat Gothic edifice, and several elegant residences. 
 The barracks are among the finest and most complete 
 in the country. The old Spanish Castle of St. Mark, 
 now Fort Marion, is quite an object of curiosity. It 
 is of coquina, is well preserved, aud will accomodate 
 a garrison of 1,000 men. The city is embosomed in 
 orange, lemon, olive, and palm trees, which grow 
 here in great perfection, and which give to the place 
 a rural rather than a commercial appearance. The 
 chief business is the manuf. of " palmetto straw" 
 work, which is largely shipped to the north. Two 
 lines of sailing packets run to New York. Pop.2,293.

 Walloostook Main, or St. John. Some 150 m. below 
 its origin it joins with the St. Francis, and changes 
 its N.E to a more E. course. Below the mouth of the 
 St. Francis it is the N. boundary of Me. for abt. 75 
 m. Below this part of its course it is wholly in Cana- 
 dian territory ; shortly after entering which its Grand 
 Falls occur, 225 m. above its mouth. The river here 
 falls 75 ft. perpendicularly. From its mouth at St. 
 John, New Brunswick, it is navigable by large steam- 
 ers for 80 m. to Fredericton, aud at high water to 
 Woodstock, 145 m. and by small steamboats, at good 
 stages of water, even as high as the Grand Falls, 
 above which it is again navigable some 40 m. The 
 total length of the river is 5o0 m. Its navigation is 
 free to U. States citizens by the Ashburton Treaty.

 St. ILaws'eaace, a great river forming the out- 
 let of the chain of lakes, or inland seas, lying between 
 the U. States and Canada. It may be considered as 
 descending from Lake Superior, and passing through 
 Lakes Huron, Erie, and Ontario, to the Gulf of St. 
 Lawrence, a distance of 2,000 m.; draining an area, 
 of over 500,000 sq. m. in extent. Its course throu?h 
 the centre of these lakes and below, until it crosses 
 
ST. L 
 
 883 
 
 ST. L 
 
 45° N. lat., forms the boundary between the U. States 
 and Canada. After crossing 45° lat., the course of this 
 majestic river is wholly within the territory of Can- 
 ada. In the upper part of its course it loses its char- 
 acter as a river, when passing through the lakes ; and 
 even when it passes from lake to lake, connecting 
 and bearing along their waters, it is known by differ- 
 ent names in different sections ; as the St. Mary's be- 
 tween Superior and Huron ; the St. Clair and the De- 
 troit between Huron and Erie, having the small lake 
 St. Clair in the intermediate course ; and the Niagara 
 between Erie and Ontario. From Lake Ontario to 
 Montreal it is sometimes called the Iroquois, though 
 it is more commonly known as the St. Lawrence 
 proper, from the outlet of Lake Ontario to its mouth. 
 Below Montreal the river varies in breadth from J m. 
 to 3 m. and it passes through the Lake St. Peter, 50 
 m. below Montreal, which Is from 12 to 15 m. wide. 
 Below Quebec the river increases rapidly in width, 
 until it enters the gulf by a mouth nearly 100 m. 
 across. Its average" fall is about six inches to the 
 mile, although this is very unequally distributed, on 
 account of the numerous rapids, and one stupendous 
 cataract in its course. It receives many tributaries, 
 the most important of which, on the S. side, is the 
 Richelieu, which is the outlet of Lake Champlain, 
 entering at the head of Lake St. Peter ; and, on the 
 N. the Saguenay, 140 m. below Quebec ; and the Ot- 
 tawa, or Grand R. which enters it a little above Mon- 
 treal. The St. Lawrence, with the chain of lakes 
 which empt} r their waters through its channel into 
 the N. Atlantic, constitutes one of the great commer- 
 cial thoroughfares of the North American continent. 
 It is navigable by sea-going vessels to Montreal. 
 Above that city its navigation is impeded by rapids, 
 of which the Cedar and Lachine are the most consid- 
 erable. The inclination of these rapids is so regular, 
 that steamboats drawing 7 ft. of water can descend 
 the river safely ; and for the purpose of obviating 
 the difficulty of ascent (Lake Ontario being 231 ft. 
 above the ocean level according to former measure- 
 ments, and accordiugto J. T. Gardner's recent calcu- 
 lations several feet higher), seven different canals 
 have been constructed, of an aggregate length of 41 
 m. which will admit the passage of vessels of 1,000 
 tons. A canal has also been constructed from Lake 
 Ontario to Lake Erie, called the Welland Canal, 28 
 m. in length, and having capacity to pass a vessel of 
 500 tons burden. There"is also a ship canal of large 
 size around the falls of St. Mary, between Lake Hu- 
 ron and Lake Superior. A vessei of 500 tons may load 
 from the mouth of the St. Louis river at Duluth, 
 Minn., or from Chicago, and, without breaking bulk, 
 pass down the St. Lawrence to any port in the world.

 eral smaller ones. The southern portion of the co. is 
 as yet but thinly settled, and is heavily timbered. 
 Along the St. Lawrence the surface is generally level 
 and very productive. There are mines of lead and

 the mouth of the Missouri, 196 m. above the mouth 
 of the Ohio, 1,149 m. above New Orleans, 125 m. by 
 rail E. of Jefferson City, and 1,063 m. W. of New 
 York. It is beautifully and regularly built upon three 
 terraces rising 20, 150 and 200 ft. above high water, 
 with wide and well built streets running parallel to 
 the river, crossed by others at right angles. The city 
 is remarkably well built, stone and brick being the 
 chief materials, and the architecture being more sub- 
 stantial than showy. The principal public buildings 
 are the U. States arsenal, the city hall, county 
 court-house, the new custom house and post-office, 
 the marine hospital, insane asylum, mercantile library 
 hall, polytechnic institute, St. Louis life insurauce 
 company's building, and others. The chamber of 
 commerce in 3d street, is the great commercial mart 
 of the city, and is claimed to be the finest edifice of 
 the kind in the country. Christ church (Episcopal), 
 and the Cathedral (Roman Catholic), are the most 
 remarkable church edifices in the city. The public 
 squares and parks embrace in the aggregate an area 
 of abt. 2,000 acres. Shaw's garden, the largest of the 
 parks, is 330 acres in area, and includes an herb and 
 flower garden of 10 acres, a fruit garden of 6 acres, 
 and an arboretum of 25 acres. The city of East St.

 Louis, on the opposite bank of the river, is connected 
 Willi St. Louis by the great St. Louis Bridge, which 
 was completed in 1874 and is regarded as one of the 
 greatest triumphs of American engineering. It con- 
 sists of three spans resting on 4 piers. The centre 
 span is 520 ft. and the side ones are each 500 ft. in 
 the eleatf. The rise of the arches is 60. ft. The bridge 
 is built in 2 stones ; the lower one containing a double 
 railroad car track. It passes over a viaduct of 5 arches 
 into Washington ave. where the lower roadway 
 runs into a tunnel 4,800 ft. long, which passes under 
 a large part of the city, terminating near 11th street. 
 The total cost of bridge and tunnel was over 
 $10,000,000. There are 16 railroads centering in St. 
 Louis, and the city has also water communications 
 with a vast extent of country. Prior to 1850 St. 
 Louis had no railways and was dependent on the 
 rivers solely for her trade with the outside world. 
 And whilst the number of steamers on the Mississippi 
 and principal tributaries has gradually been decreas- 
 ing, it must not be concluded that the river transpor- 
 tation business has had its day. The changes which 
 time has wrought may have lessened the number of 
 mammoth steamers, but commerce finds herself 
 greatly benefited with the more modern methods of 
 handling and transporting grain, by means of the 
 great barge system, so successfully introduced a few 
 years ago. Indeed, the barge system promises at no 
 distant date to revolutionize the grain trade of the 
 West. The river route not only furnishes remarkably 
 low rates, but it must act as a check on the railways, 
 and prevent exorbitant freight rates to the eastern 
 seaboard. For the year 1882, 2,537 steamboats and 
 1,310 barges arrived with 802,080 tons of freight, and 
 760,905 tons of freight were shipped in 2,487 steam- 
 boats. Besides 271,490 tons of lumber and logs were 
 received by rafts from the Upper Mississippi and

 Salem, Mass., a city# and port of entry, and one

 16 m. N.E. Boston. It is nearly surrounded by water, 
 being situated between 2 inlets of the sea, called the 
 North aud South Rs. To the main and now inhabited 
 part of the town is attached a peninsula portion of 
 land, called the Neck. This was the first inhabited, 
 and is now occupied as the Almshouse Farm. Salem 
 was formerly noted as one of the leading commercial 
 cities of America, carrying on more trade with the 
 East Indies at one period than all other American 
 ports combined. Though its harbor is safe and con- 
 venient, it is not of sufficient depth for vessels of the 
 largest class, aud this first led to the withdrawal of its 
 commerce to Boston and New York. It has now very 
 little foreign commerce, but a large coasting trade, 
 and it is a point of shipment for large quantities of 
 coal landed here in vessels and sent to the interior by 
 rail. Manuf. is a prominent interest, and is increas- 
 ing. The leading industry is the manuf. of leather, 
 but in addition there are a successful cotton company, 
 2 lead-mills, 1 or 2 jute-factories, 7 nat. and 1 other 
 bank, 1 daily, 2 semi-wkly, 4 wkly, and 2 monthly 
 papers, and a large number of machine-shops and 
 small industries. It is an important centre of retail 
 trade. Salem has many interesting old houses, and 
 its general appearance is attractive. It is divided into 
 6 wards, and has an efficient police force and a good 
 fire department. The streets are lighted with gas, 
 and water is supplied bv au aqueduct from Wenham 
 Lake, 4m. distant. Besides the almshouse aud small- 
 pox hospital, there are an orphan asylum, a dispen- 
 sary, a reform school for boys, aud several charitable 
 societies. There are a high school, five grammar and 
 twelve primary schools, two evening schools, two 
 drawing schools, and a special school for factory 
 operatives and others unable to pursue the regular 
 course. One of the State normal schools (for females) 
 is here. Among the principal public institutions is 
 t he East India marine society, organized in 1799, and 
 formed of those who, as captains or supercargoes, 
 have doubled Cape Horn or the cape of Good Hope. 
 The museum of this society is one of the most inter- 
 esting and valuable in the country. The Essex institute, 
 organized in 1848. besides its extensive cabinet of natu- 
 ral history, has a library of 30,000 volumes, a large col- 
 lection of portraits, and many historical and other 
 relics. The Salem Athenaeum, formed in 1810. has a 
 library of 15,500 volumes. The office of the permanent 
 secretary of the American association for the advance- 
 ment of science, organized in 1848,is in the East India 
 marine hall, and contains a small and select scientific 
 library. The charitable mechanical association, or- 
 ganized in 1817, has a library of 4,000 volumes. Other 
 important associations are the marine society, insti- 
 tuted in 1766; the lvceum, in 1830; the young men's 
 union in 1855 ; and the young men's Christian associa- 
 tion, in 1858. Salem is after Plymouth the oldest town 
 in Mass. It was settled in 1628, and became a city in 
 1836. In 1692 the famous witchcraft delusion made its 
 appearance here, and 19 persons from this and ad- 
 jacent towns were executed on the eminence now 
 known as Gallows Hill. Pop. 27,598.

 San Antonio was the cap. of Texas under the Spanish 
 and Mexican governments, and one of the oldest 
 settlements in the State. It consists of 3 parts ; the 
 old town, or San Antonio proper, between the two 
 streams; Alamo, E. of the San Antonio; and Chihua- 
 hua, W. of the San Pedro. The old town is the busi- 
 ness quarter, and has in great part lost its Mexican 
 character, having been almost entirely rebuilt since. 
 1860. Chihuahua is almost exclusively Mexican in 
 character and population. The houses are one story 
 high, partly built of stone and partly of upright logs 
 with cane roofs. Alamo, is the largest quarter of the 
 city, is considerably higher than the other two, and 
 is mostly inhabited by Germans. The land imme- 
 diately around the city is level. A mile distant rise.-; a 
 chain of limestone hills, which furnish an excellent 
 building material. San Antonio is the chief city of W. 
 Texas, and has an extensive trade. Its most impor- 
 tant manufactories are 3 large flouring mills, a soap 
 and candle factory, a wood and stone cutting estab- 
 lishment, 2 ice factories, a meat extract factory, and 
 3 breweries. It has a nat. and 4 other banks. It is di- 
 vided into four wards, and has a good fire depart- 
 ment. There are a hospital and a female orphan asy- 
 lum, under the control of the Roman Catholics, a 
 Roman Catholic college and convent, two Germau- 
 American schools, 5 free public schools, 10 churches, 
 and 4 daily and 3 wkly papers. San Antonio was 
 founded in 1714 by the Spaniards, and was incorpo- 
 rated as a city in 1873. Pop. in 1870, 12,256 ; in 1880,

 of the Coast range cross it from N. to S. dividing it 
 into three parts differing much in climate, soil, and 
 topography. The division along the coast is abt. 25 m. 
 wide, and consists largely of level plains or gently 
 sloping valleys, watered by San Bernardo, San Diego, 
 and oilier rivers; the greater portion is suitable for 
 agriculture and grazing. The central or mountain di- 
 vision is very irregular in outline, averaging 40 m. in 
 width. Both ranges areeovered with forestsof oak. ce- 
 dar, pine, and fir, and contain gold, silver, copper, and 
 other minerals. Gold is extensively mined. There 
 are a number of broad valleys or tablelands, having 
 a delightful climate and a fertile soil. They produce 
 grapes, oranges, wheat, barley, &c. The E. division 
 is occupied by the Colorado desert, which is for 
 the most part treeless and barren, and part of it 
 is below the level of the sea. It is very dry and hot, 
 and contains many natural curiosities, among which 
 is a lake of boiling mud abt. half a mile long by 500

 most costly in the State. It is the largest fresh fish 
 market in the world. Its trade is fish, lumber, lime- 
 stone, manufactured woodwork, grapes, and native 
 wine, steel works, engine and boiier and thres ing- 
 machine works. It has excellent water-works, a paid 
 fire department, and 3 nat. banks. Its receipts from 
 the country are largely wool and grain. Its coal-busi- 
 ness is large over B.&O.RR., and thence by lake to 
 Detroit and the N. Its receipts by water are chiefly 
 iron ore, lumber, and fish. It has 1 daily, 2 semi-wkly 
 and 5 wkly papers. Its fisheries employ over 1,000 
 hands, and it is the centre of one of the most impor- 
 tant wine-growing districts in the U. States. It is also 
 celebrated for its manuf. of articles in wood, of which 
 handles, spokes, and hubs, " bent wood" for car- 
 riages, and carpenters' tools are the most important.

 San IVaBieis'co, Cal., the finest and largest 
 bay on the Pacific coast, between lat. 37° 48' and 38° 
 10' N. and Ion. 122° and 122° 30' W., is connected 
 with the Pacific Ocean by a strait. 1 m. wide called the 
 Golden Gate. It extends S.S.W. abt. 40 m., being 
 separated from the Pacific by a peninsula from 6 to 
 15 m. wide, on the N. extremity of the S. arm of 
 which is the city of San Francisco. The bay opposite 
 the city is abt. 7 m. wide, and in its widest part 12 m. 
 The shores of the Golden Gate are bold and rocky, 
 rising on the N. in some places nearly 2.000 ft. while 
 on the S. the hills are from 300 to 400 ft. high, many 
 of them being covered with shifting white sand. On 
 the bar there is 30 ft. of water at low tide ; within 
 there is a much greater depth and good anchorage. 
 The principal islands are Alcatraz, in the middle of 
 the channel, abt. 4 m. from the entrance ; Angel, 
 the largest, containing 800 acres, and Yerba Buena, 
 or Goat Island, ''pposite the city. There is a fortification 
 on Alcatraz Island, and another at Fort Point on the 
 S. side of the Golden Gate. The bay is connected on 
 the N. by a strait 3 m. wide, with San Pablo Bay, 
 which is nearly round and abt. 10 m. in diameter, and 
 this receives from the E. through Oarquinez Strait 
 (1 m. wide) the waters of Suisun Bay, which is abt. 
 8 m. long from E. to W., and 4 m. wide; San Pablo 
 and Suicum Bays are deep, but Oarquinez Strait hag 
 only 16 ft. of water at low tide. At the head of San 
 Pablo Bay is Napa, or Mare Island, in which is a U. 
 States navy yard. 
 
 —the chief city and seaport of California and of the 
 Western coast of North America, and the 9*h city of 
 the U. States in point of pop., designated in law as 
 " the city and county of San Francisco," the func- 
 tions of city and co. government, usually separated, 
 being here consolidated. It is situated in lat. 37° 48' 
 2f).6 ,7 N., Ion. 122° 24' 39.6" W., on the end of a penin- 
 sula there, 6 m. wide and 20 m. long, separating the 
 S. arm of the San Francisco Bay from the Pacific 
 Ocean. The city stands on the E. or inner slope of 
 the peninsula. Its area is 42 sq. m. — sandy, dusty, 
 rocky in different parts, hardly green anywhere. The 
 harbor is part of a bay 50 in. long and 5 m. wide, has 
 an entrance 35 ft. deep at low tide and 1 m. wide, 
 and on the anchorage along the city front there 
 is abundant room, with excellent holding ground 
 and a depth of 40 ft., which increases to 400 ft. in 
 the narrowest part of the Golden Gate, as the beau- 
 tiful entrance to the bay is styled. San Francisco is 
 connected by ferry-boat with Oakland, a beautiful 
 city on the E. side of the bay, with groves and 
 
 gardens, beautiful streets, and delightful climate, 
 which is a favorite residence of persons doing busi- 
 ness in the metropolis. The city is regularly laid out, 
 though not on a uniform plan. The streets are broad, 
 and cross each other at right angles. The business 
 streets are generally paved with Belgian blocks or 
 cobble stones, and most of the residence streets are 
 planked. The leading thoroughfare is Montgomery 
 St., which is broad and lined with handsome build- 
 ings. At its N. end it extends to the top of a hill, 
 which is so precipitous that carriages can not ascend 
 it. A flight of steps enables pedestrians to mount 
 with comparative ease ; and from the top there is a 
 fine view over the city and bay. Kearney St. and 
 Market St. are the fashionable promenades, and con- 
 tain some of the principal retail shops. In California 
 St. the principal banks and brokers and insurance 
 offices are located. The importers aud jobbers are in 
 Front, Sansome, and Battery Sts. The " Chinese quar- 
 ter," comprises portions of Sacramento, Commercial, 
 Dupont, Pacific, and Jackson Sts. The characteristics 
 of San Francisco in 1882 have been thus given by Mr. 
 C. S. Gleed : " What Paris is to France, San Fran- 
 cisco is to the Pacific coast of the U. States ; and the 
 similarity does not end in the mere matter of size. 
 The character of San Francisco as a city is like that of 
 Paris. San Francisco is a gay city, the meti opolis of 
 a light-hearted people. It is a condensation of Cali- 
 fornia. It is a city of sunshine, flowers, music, poetry, 
 painting, literature, business activity and swift social 
 currents — swift, if not deep. Two hundred and fifty 
 thousand people, or thereabouts, are gathered to- 
 gether on the extremity of a tumulus, sandy, wave- 
 washed poiut of land. The city ou its many hills is 
 like Rome, only more so; in its water-beleaguered 
 condition is like Venice, only not quite so much so ; 
 in its Chinese quarter is like Pekin or Hong Kong; 
 in its fog malady for half the year is like London ; 
 in its love for music, artar.d literature is like Boston; 
 in its business mania is like New York or Chicago. 
 Crossing the bay from Oakland the stranger lands 
 in San Francisco, and at once realizes that he is a 
 stranger. The street cars run without visible means 
 of support ; up hill and down they go with all the 
 intelligence, steadiness and quiet of " the oldest in- 
 habitants," the secret of their activity being a noise- 
 less undeig ound cable. The hotels, from the Palace 
 aud the Baldwin down to the What-cheer house are 
 unusual and unprecedented. The Palace is a hollow 
 square, seven stories high, covered with glass, hav- 
 ing a conservatory or hanging garden on the top 
 floor, and a band of music in the rotunda. Count 
 Smith, chief cleik, is as remarkable as any other part 
 of the institution. He knows everybody, and forgets 
 nothing. The Grand hotel is just across the street 
 from the Palace, and is the handsomest hotel build- 
 ing in the city. The What-cheer house is the house 
 where a guest's plate is filled with soup from a mon- 
 ster syringe. If the necessary five cents in payment 
 is not atonce forthcoming the syringe is again applied 
 to the plate and the soup withdrawn. The theatres 
 are large and handsome, though of late the theatri- 
 cal business has considerably declined. The churches, 
 from Mayor Kalloch's tabernacle to the Chinese Joss 
 houses, are well built aud well supported. The clubs 
 — Bohemian and others — are conducted on the most 
 "generous, gorgeous and gigantic " plan. Hospital- 
 ity is the object of their every endeavor. The schools 
 of the city are modern in every respect. The mint is 
 an institution where the stransrer should go to see 
 how it seems to see gold and silverhandledlike corn 
 and potatoes. Chinatown must be visited at night 
 with a policeman or some other functionary as a 
 guide. Here you will see a simon-pure chunk of 
 China, broken off and relocated in San Francisco.

 with their senseless performances — stale, flat and un- 
 profitable ; the Joss houses, or churches, with their 
 idols, symbols and magnificent specimens of carving; 
 the restaurants, where nimble-fingered Chinamen 
 " eatee lice " (rice) with two small round sticks ; the 
 opium dens, where one comes as near getting a smell 
 of Hell and a sight of the Devil as anywhere else in 
 the world; the underground burrowings, where there 
 are more Chinamen to the square yard than there are 
 inhabitants in Kansas to the square mile ; the great 
 aggregation of crooked smells and noises, and over 
 and above all the babblings of a strange and chill- 
 ing tongue — these are the tints which compose the 
 picture of Chinatown. San Francisco jewelry stores, 
 photographic establishments and Japanese importing 
 houses should all be visited. "Nobb Ml," is the 
 place where mu. h of the wealth of California has its 
 place of residence. The grave of Starr King, the new 
 city hall, the wharfs and naval posts, all should be 
 seen. Golden Gate park, the Cliff house and Seal 
 Rocks should be visited, and then may come an end- 
 less variety of excursions — North, East, South — near 
 at hand alongthe bay, or furtherofE inlaud or along 
 the coast. San Francisco is a wooden city, the pecu- 
 liar climate making it advantageous to build of wood 
 and finish with a cement which gives buildings the 
 appearance of marble. The red wood used does not 
 burn rapidly, and altogether this system of building 
 which at first seems shoddy and unsubstantial is 
 really the best possible one. This is San Francisco. 
 It must be seen to be appreciated." — The Southern 
 Pacific is the only railroad terminating within the 
 city limits ; the Central Pacific terminates at Oakland, 
 and the California Pacific and San Francisco and 
 North Pacific lines terminate on San Pablo Bay N. 
 of the city. Abt. 50 ocean steamers run from the port 
 in regular lines to Japan, Australia, Panama, Mexico, 
 Victoria, and domestic ports in Oregon and Califor- 
 nia, and a score of light steamers to various ports on 
 the inland waters that havetheiroutletattheGolden 
 Gate. San Francisco was first settled in 1776 as a 
 Spanish military station and a Franciscan mission 
 to Indians. It made little progress till 1848, when the 
 discovery of gold directed a great tide of immigration 
 to the Pacific coast ; and nature had given Sah Fran- 
 cisco almost an absolute monopoly of the harbor 
 privileges of 2,000 m. of coast. Its growth was 
 rapid; its enterprises were magnificent, its ven- 
 tures the most daring, and its speculations the 
 wildest, in modern commercial history. As the 
 country gained age, and surface mining wore out, 
 more distant and more costly mining was managed 
 from San Francisco ; and the losses and the gains in 
 that city upon ventures in Nevada and Colorado 
 have been enormous. A great traffic has grown up 
 in the development of the permanent grain and fruit 
 resources, as well as in its commanding relation to 
 Asiatic commerce. San Francisco ranks third among 
 all the ports of the Union in the total value of its 
 foreign commerce, which for the year 1882 was $83,- 
 092,022 (exports $53,476,356; imports$41,001,636). In 
 that year 922 vessels of 1,116,903 tons entered, and 
 992 vessels of 1,200,419 tons cleared the port in the 
 foreign trade. There were, belonging to the port, 860 
 vessels of 208,058 tons, including 165 steamers of 75,- 
 129 tons. The following are items of the foreign and 
 domestic commerce and business of San Francisco : 
 mineral prod. $18,190,973 ; treasure exports, $26,218,- 
 171 ; mint coinage, $38,065,750 ; quicksilver exports, 
 52,180 flasks ; coal receipts, 618.094 tons ; wine ex- 
 ports by sea, 1,401,438 galls., and by rail 676,916 galls.; 
 salmon shipped E., 216,301 cases ; coffee imports, 12,- 
 393,822; coffee exports by sea 514,741 lbs., and by 
 rail, 2,822,965 lbs.; rice imports, 48,811,107; shipments 
 of hides by rail, 4,622,920 lbs., and of leather, 1,791,- 
 275 lbs.; wool exports by sea, 12,731,297 lbs., valued 
 at $2,313,959, and shipp'ed by rail, 37,379,044 lbs., 
 57 
 
 valued at $6,600,000 ; lumber receipts, 212,151,817ft.; 
 tea imports, 19,977,672 lbs.; sugar imports, 54,487,- 
 442 lbs.; on which the Hawaiian Islands constituted 
 46,682,801 lbs. The value of manuf. establishments 
 in 1880 was $80,000,000, including sugar refineries, 
 woolen and silk-mills, and manuf. of watches, car- 
 riages, boots, furniture, candles, acids, soap, wire- 
 work, castings of iron and brass, silverware, etc. 
 Many of the mines of gold, silver, quicksilver and 
 coal, the deposits of borax and sulphur, the quar- 
 ries of granite, marble, trap, slate, and steatite, the 
 mining and irrigating ditches, the railways and ma- 
 cadamized roads, the quartz mills and saw mills, the 
 vineyards, farms, orchards, and ranches, from Ari- 
 zona to Idaho, and from the Pacific to the Rocky 
 Mts., are owned here. — San Francisco had, in 1882, 
 21 commercial banks and bankers, and 8 savings 
 banks with $36,374,685 deposits. The city is divided 
 into 12 wards, and governed by a mayor and a board 
 of supervisors of 12 members. It is supplied with 
 water from Pilarcitos near the base of the peninsula, 
 by a conduit 30 m. long. The regular police force 
 consists of 150 men, and there is a paid fire depart- 
 ment with 11 steam engines, 5 hose, and 3 hook and 
 ladder companies. The most important educational

 This is the most celebrated watering-place in the tJ. 
 Stales. There are here, within the distance of about 
 half a mile, as many as 28 mineral (including 6 
 spouting) springs, with properties considerably var- 
 ious, and all highly efficacious in their remedial use. 
 This place is the annual resort of thousands, es- 
 pecially during the months of July and August, 
 who come in pursuit of health or pleasure, from 
 everj' section of this country and of Europe. Large 
 and splendid accommodations are provided in the 
 various hotels and boarding-houses, which, in the 
 season of company, are often thronged with visitors, 
 presenting an animated scene of gayetv, luxury, and 
 display. The village, which is in the N. part of the 
 tp. is situated on a sandy plain, in part surrounded by 
 a beautiful grove of pines, having its principal street 
 upon the W. margin of a narrow vale in which the 
 springs are found. On this broad street most of the 
 largest hotels are situated, with several of tho 
 churches and other public edifices, which give to it 
 an imposing appearance. The sprinsrs issue from the 
 limestone formation, which underlies the whole sur-

 face of sandy soil upon which the village is built : 
 most of them coming out, near the margin of a small 
 stream which runs through the village, in the narrow 
 valley on the E. of the principal street. Some springs 
 are chalybeate, others impregnated with iodine, sul- 
 phur, and magnesia, and all powerfully charged with 
 carbonic acid gas. The most celebrated are the Con- 
 gress, Empire, Hathorn, High Rock, Washington, 
 Geyser, (spouting), and Pavilion Springs. These wa- 
 ters are highly efficacious in many inveterate eases 
 of disease. But even this is not their most important 
 benefit. They have an almost magic effect upon the 
 healthy system, to renovate and invigorate its ener- 
 gies, when relaxed from long confinement to busi- 
 ness, or from sedentary habits, and to remove the la- 
 tent causes of languor and disease. Their chief me- 
 dicinal properties are of the cathartic aud tonic 
 kinds. Large quantities of these waters are bottled, 
 and exported. The v. contains 7 large and 25 small 
 hotels, abt. 50 boarding houses, a large town hall, 2

 Savannah, 6a., a city<$> and port of entry, cap. 
 of Chatham co., and the second city in size and com- 
 mercial importance in the State, on the S. side of the 
 Savannah R., 18 m. from its mouth, on the C.G., the 
 C.&S. and the S.F.&W.RRs., 295 m. E.S.E. Atlanta 
 and 115 m. S.W. Charleston, S.C. The city is built on 
 a sandy plain 40 ft. above the level of the river. It is 
 laid out with regularity and beauty, by streets cross- 
 ing each other at right augles, and having between 
 every other street a public square, generally enclosed 
 and ornamented with trees. These open parks, with 
 their verdant carpeting and shaded avenues, together 
 with the rows of trees with which the streets gener- 
 ally are lined on both sides throughout, give to the 
 city, during the spring and. summer mouths, an airy, 
 cool, and rural appearance. Of public buildings the 
 most prominent are the custom-house and post-office, 
 exchange, police barracks, theatre, Oglethrope Bar- 
 racks (U. S.), aud market ; private buildings of rare 
 and beautiful architectural proportions are promi- 
 nent. The position aud the harbor of Savannah offer 
 fine advantages for navigation aud commerce. The 
 harbor is one of the. finest on the S. coast of the U. 
 States. The entrance from the sea, over the bar, is 
 full a mile wide, the depth of water is 19 ft. at mean 
 low water, and 26 ft. at mean high water ; within, at 
 the Tybee Roads anchorage, the depth is 31 ft. and 38 
 ft. respectively. Only 12 ft. however, at mean low 
 water and 18 ft. at mean high water can be carried up 
 to the city, aud much dredging is required to keep 
 the chanuel open iu certain places to tins extent. The 
 river flows between marshy lands, which are intersec- 
 ted by numerous creeks and artificial channels, and 
 are cultivated chiefly for rice. Long narrow islands 
 aud spits almost level with the water occupy a large 
 portion of the space between the opposite banks, and 
 reduce the main channel for a considerable part of 
 the way between the city and the mouth to a width 
 of a quarter of a mile and even less.The chief defences 
 of the river are Fort Pulaski, a strong fortification 
 on Cockspur Island, at the mouth of the river, and 
 Fort Jackson on the right bank, 4 m. below the city. 
 Steamers run regularly up the river to Augusta, and 
 to New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Florida, and 
 southern ports. — The chief business of Savannah is 
 the receipt and shipment of cotton, though the trade 
 iu turpentine lumber is also considerable. As a cot- 
 ton port it ranks second in the U. States. The value 
 of imports from foreign countries iu 1S80 was 8429,- 
 519 ; of exports, 821,527,235. During the year 319 ves- 
 sels of 400,048 tons entered, and 366 vessels of 431,- 
 450 tons cleared the port in the coast wise trade. The 
 number of vessels belonging to the pot t in 1880 was 
 71, with an aggregate tonnage of 16,347. The chief 
 mauuf. establishments are several planing mills, 
 foundries, and flouring and grist mills. There are 1 
 uat. and 5 other bauks, 2 daily, 3 wkly and 2 month- 
 ly papers. The city is governed by a mayor and 12 
 aldermen, elected biennially. It has a good police 
 force and efficient fire department with a fire alarm 
 telegraph. There are 13 public schools (10 white 
 and 3 colored), several private schools, and a med- 
 ical college. Savannah has also three noteworthy 
 and attractive monuments — one in memory of Count 
 Pulaski, who fell in the American assault on the Brit- 
 ish works in that city on Oct. 9, 1779 ; another in mem- 
 ory of Gen. Nathaniel Greene ; and the third iu honor 
 of the Confederate dead — erected in the magnificent 
 park on the southern limits of the city. Pop. 30,709.

 SavasEBaah SSiven-, S. ft and Ga., a river, 
 formed by the junction on the line between Ander- 
 son co., S.C. and Franklin co., Ga., of the Tugaloo 
 and Kiowee, two small streams which rise at the S. 
 extremity of N.C. From its source, at the junction of 
 these two rivers, to its mouth it has a channel length 
 of 450 m. while the distance in a direct line is only 
 250 rn. With its tributaries it drains an area of over 
 8,000 sq. m. It flows S.S.E. forming the boundary 
 between S.C. and Ga., and enters the Atlantic 18 m. 
 below Savannah City. The Savannah is a turbid 
 stream, and the current in the upper portion of the 
 river and its tributaries is rapid and carries a great 
 deal of silt, particulaly during the season of freshets. 
 Bars are therefore formed in the broader portions of 
 the stream where the current is less rapid, and the 
 stream becomes sluggish. At Savannah the mean rise 
 and fall of tide is 6£ ft. The tidal wave ordinarily as- 
 cends to a point abt. 28 m. above Savannah city, or 
 45 in. from Tybee Roads. The river is navigable to 
 Savannah for vessels drawing 18 ft. of water, and by 
 small vessels to Augusta, 231 miles, and even far be- 
 yond the latter place for small craft.

 Seneca I^sake, N. Y., is the largest of that ser- 
 ies of beautiful lakes lying in the interior of Western 
 New York. It is 40 m. long, and varies in width from 
 2 to 4 in. Its elongated diameter is nearly from N. to 
 S. The elevation of its surface is 431 ft. above tide 
 water. About midway, upou the W. shore, it receives 
 the outlet of Crooked Lake, which lies abt. 6 m. to 
 the S.W. elevated 265 ft. above. Its own outlet is at 
 its N.E. angle, and flows E. abt. 12 va. to Cayuga 
 Lake, affording a hue water-power at Waterloo, and 
 also at Seneca Falls. The whole descent, in 12 m. is 
 abt. 80 ft. At the falls the water deseeuds 47 ft. over 
 4 dams. Seneca Lake is very deep, and consequently 
 is never entirely frozen over ; 12 m. from its outlet, 
 it has been ascertained to be 5011 ft. deep. It is con- 
 nected by a canal with Crooked Lake. Its outlet is 
 also made navigable by locks at Waterloo, connect- 
 ing its commerce with that of the Erie Canal. Upon 
 the lake itself steamboats run regularly through from 
 Geneva, near its foot, to Jelferson at its head. 
 
 Seneca. Stiver, N. Y., is the outlet of Seneca 
 Lake, from the N. end of which it flows E. abt. 12m. 
 to the N. end of Cayuga Lake. Receiving the waters 
 from this lake, it turns N. until it meets with a stream 
 formed by the outlet of Canaudaigua Lake, and other 
 small tributaries coming from the W.; after which it 
 flows E. again, receiving other tributaries successive- 
 ly from the outlets of Owasco, Skaneateles, and 
 Onondaga Lakes, until it meets that of the Oneida 
 Lake, where, turning to the N. W. it. becomes the Os- 
 wego R. and flows into Lake Ontario, at Oswego. Its 
 course is abt. 60 m. from Seneca Lake to its conflu- 
 ence with the Oswego. It is rendered navigable by a 
 canal and locks to the Erie Canal at Waterloo. 
 
 Sen'ecas, one of the tribes of Iroquois, or Six 
 Nations of Indians of Western New York, the most 
 numerous and warlike of that confederacy. They still 
 occupy in N.Y. the Alleghany, Cattaraugus, and 
 Tonawanda reservations (66,000 acres), but white set- 
 tlers have encroached so that there are thriving 
 towns there. They number abt. 3,000 and there is be-

 Shoshones, or Snakes, a family of Indians of 
 the Californian group, inhabiting a wide range of ter- 
 ritory from Idaho southward into Utah, and from the 
 Sierra Nevada eastward to the Rocky Mts. They are 
 divided into Shoshones proper and Utes or Utahs. 
 The Shoshones have usually been peaceably inclined, 
 but have several times come into collision with the 
 white settlers and suffered severely, several bands 
 having been nearly exterminated. Most of the south- 
 ern Shoshones live upon roots and small animals, but 
 
 the northern bands obtain a comfortable subsistence 
 from the fisheries of the Shoshone R. (a head stream 
 of Snake R. ) and by hunting larger game, some of 
 them being very expert with the bow, and of late 
 years possessing some horses and firearms. They are 
 very fond of bai ter and of personal adornment, are 
 usually dressed in buffalo or deer skins, live in skin 
 tents, are fond of games of chance. Few efforts at 
 their conversion or education have as yet been made. 
 The entire number of the various bands is estimated 
 at abt. 5,000, the greater part being iu Utah and Ne- 
 vada.

 Snake River, also called Lewis Fork, and 
 Shoshone River, the largest tributary of the Col- 
 umbia, issues at an elevation of abt. 7,790ft., from a 
 a lake in the National Park of the Yellow Stone 
 (Uintah co., Wyo. Ter.), which was until lately sup- 
 posed to be the source of the Madison R. It flows 
 N.W. to the junction of Lewis fork, the outlet of 
 Shoshone and Lewis Lakes : then S.. expanding in its 
 course into Jackson Lake, and again N.W. to the 
 junction of Henry's fork (a total course of nearly 
 200 m.) in Idaho, about 1st. 43° 15', Ion. 112°. From 
 the junction the Snake describes a curve of more 
 than 350 m. through S. Idaho, flowing S.W. and then 
 N. \V., and strikes the Oregon border in about lat. 
 44° 40'; it then flows N. abt. 200 m., separating 
 Idaho from Oregon and Washington territory, when 
 in abt. lat. 46° 30' it turns W. into Washington, and 
 after a further course of abt. 150 m. falls into the 
 Columbia abt. 20 m. above the Oregon boundary, 
 abt. lat. 46° 15', Ion. 119°. Its total lengfth is upward 
 of 900 m. Steamers ascend to Lewiston on the Idaho 
 border : navigation is then impeded for more than 
 100 m. by shallows and rapids, above which the river 
 is again navigable for 150 or 200 m. In its course 
 through S. Idaho, the Snake flows through a vast 
 canyon, varying in depth from 100 to 1,000 ft.; many 
 of its tributaries sink, and, passing under the strata 
 of lava, fall from the sides of the canon into the main 
 stream ; and here occur the American, Shoshone, and 
 Salmon falls. The American falls are in abt. Ion. 112" 
 45' and have a perpendicular descent of 60 or 70 ft. 
 The Shoshone falls, further down the stream; and 
 just below the junction of Malade R. are surpassed 
 only by those of Niagara and the Yosemite. The 
 river, here 200 or 300 yards wide, is divided above 400 
 yards above the main fall into six nearly equal parts 
 by five islands, and in the passage between them is 
 precipitated, 25 or 30 ft. Uniting below the islands, 
 the water passes in an unbroken sheet over the great 
 fall, a descent of abt. 200 ft. The Salmon falls abt. 
 45 m. below the Shoshone, are 20 ft. high.

 South Carolina, "a S.E. State, bounded N. 
 and N.E. by North Carolina, S.E. by the Atlantic 
 Ocean, and S.W. by Georgia. It is situated between 
 lat. 32" and 35° 10' N., Ion. 78° 35' and 83" 30' W. The 
 shape is that of an irregular triangle, 240 m. long 
 from E. to W., and 210 m. wide from N. to S.; area, 
 30,170 sq. m. This State presents a great variety of 
 soil and surface. Along the. seaboard and for 40 m. 
 into the interior, the face of the country is fiat and 
 unpromising, covered with extensive tracts of p.ne 
 barren, swamp, and savannah, or open meadow 
 without wood, comprising the most fertile and the 
 most sterile extremes of soil. Ascending toward the 
 centre of the State, the country rises into hills of 
 moderate elevation. Advancing still further into a 
 N. direction, it becomes mountainous, and very pic- 
 turesque, rising by a gradual swpe toward the Blue 
 Ridge Mts. Table Mt. has an elevation of 4,000 ft. 
 King's Mt., upon the N.C. border, is a conspicuous 
 landmark. The principal rivers of the State take 
 their rise in the Blue Ridge Mts. of N.C. and flow in 
 a S.E. direction toward the ocean. Beginning on the 
 N., the first important stream is the Great Pedee, 
 called the Yadkin in N.C, which empties into Win- 
 yaw Bay. Steamboats ascend it for 150 m. The San- 
 tee R., formed by the junction of the Wateree and 
 the Congaree near the centre of the State, discharges 
 its water through two mouths, called the North and 
 South Santee. Both the main branches are naviga- 
 ble almost to the boundaries of N.C. for small boats. 
 Ashley and Cooper Rs. rind their outlet through 
 Charleston Bay. The Edisto is a considerable stream, 
 divided by a large island near its mouth into two 
 parts, called the North and South Edisto. Savannah 
 R. forms the boundary between S.C. and Ga. It is 
 navigable for large steamers to Augusta, 230 m. 
 Numerous bays indent, the coast, which is 200 m. 
 long in a direct line. Winyaw Bay, 14 m. long and 
 2 m. wide, affords agood harbor. St. Helena's Sound, 
 from 3 to 5 in. broad, extends inland for 10 m. Beau- 
 fort harbor will admit vessels drawing 24 ft. of water. 
 Charleston harbor is spacious, but the entrance is 
 obstructed by bars. Stretching along the coast, and 
 cut off from the main land by narrow channels are 
 many islands. These islands, in their primitive state, 
 were covered with a growth of trees, underbrush and 
 rank weeds so thick as to be almost impenetrable. 
 Extending along the adjacent shores were dense 
 forests of live-oak, pitch pine, palmetto, yucca, laurel, 
 hickory, etc. Six millions of acres are included in 
 the pine woods. Orange trees flourish in the South. 
 The mountains of the N.W. are covered with a hard- 
 wood growth, comprising most, of the trees which 
 are common to N.C. and Va. The famous sea-island 
 cotton, "which has no superior in the world," is 
 grown to perfection upon the deep, rich soil of the 
 islands. It is estimated that, a million acres of the 
 most productive hinds can be made by draining the 
 swamps, which have an inexhaustible fertility. Rice- 
 fields occupy many of the tide-swamps. Upon the 
 oak and hickory openings large crops of cotton, corn, 
 potatoes and other vegetables are produced. The 
 pine lands are less fertile, but well repay cultivation. 
 Nearly half the soil of the State is of an alluvial 
 formation, having clay for its substratum. The cli- 
 mate, from the location, should be very hot, being 
 in the lat. of Morocco and the Barbary States, but it 
 
sou

 is more like that of the S. of France and N. Spain. 
 On the coast the sea-breezes, and in the interior the 
 mountains, greatly modify the heat. In the N.W. 
 portion of the State, Indian corn is not as sure a 
 crop as it is in Minnesota, while in the S. and S.E. dis- 
 tricts the orange, the sugar-cane, the pomegranate, 
 the fig, and the banana are largely cultivated. Sud- 
 den frosts sometimes cut off these fruits, but in the 
 a\erage of years they do well. The mean annual 
 temperature" of Charleston for the past thirty years 
 has been 65.6° — the summer mean abt. 80°, the win- 
 ter mean 52°, the spring 66.3°, and the autumn abt. 
 65°. The isothermal line of 64° crosses the State from 
 Little River Inlet (N.E. corner of the State) to Ham- 
 burg, opposite Augusta, on the Savannah R. S. of 
 this line, towards the Savannah R. and harbor, the 
 mean annual temperature rises to 67° N. and N.W. 
 of it the annual mean falls to 60°, and in the moun- 
 tainous district to 56°. The range on the lowlands is 
 from 51 to 60 inches, on the middle and ridge lands, 
 44 to 52 inches, and in the mountainous di triets, 
 from 40 to 44 inches. Yellow fever occasionally oc- 
 curs as an epidemic at Charleston. — S.C. is rich in 
 mines. Gold is found in Spartanburg, Union, York, 
 Lancaster, Greenville, Pickens and Abbeville coun- 
 ties ; silver in Spartanburg; copper in York, Spartan- 
 burg and Pickens; iron in Spartanburg, York, Green- 
 ville and Pickens ; lead in Pickens ; manganese in 
 Spartanburg, York, Union, Chester, Pickens, Lan 
 caster, Greenville, Anderson, Abbeville and Edge- 
 field; bismuth in Chesterfield and Lancaster ; black 
 lead in Spartanburg ; coal in Chesterfield, Malboro 
 and Aiken; oxide of titanium in Pickens; sulphate of 
 iron, found in gold mines, is in Pickens detected 
 mixed with sulphate of alumina. Previous to 1860, 
 these mines had been worked to some extent, but 
 never were developed to their full capacity. Since 
 the close of the late civil war the owners have been 
 pecuniarily unable to continue the work. Capitalists 
 are becoming interested in them, and in a few years 
 these mines will again be in active operation and 
 yielding handsome revenues. The limestone of the 
 Blue Ridge may be used as fertilizers, while the 
 richest deposits of bone phosphates on the conti- 
 nent, if not in the world, are quarried in Charleston 
 co., near the Ashley and Cooper Rs. (See Charles- 
 ton). — S.C. is rich in valuable woods such as live 
 oak and 20 other varieties of oak, black walnut, ce- 
 dar, cypress, 5 varieties of pine, hickory, chestnut, 
 poplar, ash, linden, magnolia, elm and other mag- 
 nificent forest trees. The flora of the State embraces 
 3,500 species, of which 400 are medicinal. The usual 
 prod, of the State are cotton, rice, corn, wheat, rye, 
 oats, millet, barley, buckwheat, peas, beans, sweet 
 and Irish potatoes, sorghum, sugar, tobacco, indigo, 
 hemp, flax, hops, broom corn. Of fruits, peaches, 
 apples, pears, figs, quinces, plums, pomegranates, 
 lemons, olives, mulberries, raspberries, strawberries, 
 blackberries, whortleberries, walnuts, chestnuts, 
 hickory nuts, pecans, hazel nuts, beech uuts and 
 pindars. All varieties of grapes grow luxuriantly, 
 and fine wines are made from the cultivated grapes 
 and from the muscadine, which grows in wild abun- 
 dance all through the woods. Vineyards and the 
 it, auuf. of wines have proved profitable and very in- 
 expensive. Vegetables of every known variety are 
 grown with ease in this State, and the shipping of 
 early vegetables t" Northern markets brings a hand- 
 some profit to those so engaged. Thousands of dol- 
 lars have been realized on asparagus beds, and any 
 amount of money might be realized on the canning 
 of tomatoes and fruits which grow to perfection 
 here. Where proper attention has been paid to dairy 
 products a good yield has paid well, and the butter 
 made at some of the dairies brings from 35 to 45 
 cents a pound. Sheep husbandry is receiving consid- 
 erable attention in S.C. now, and promises to prove 
 
 a vast source of wealth to the people. Many are in- 
 terested in raising improved bees and poultry. Cat- 
 tle, sheep, goats and hogs are raised for market, but 
 are seldom sold outside of the State. The native 
 grasses in the N. part of the State furnish abundant 
 pasturage for cattle and sheep, and very little atten- 
 tion to them is necessary, even in winter, owing to 
 the mildness of the climate. The principal markets 
 for agricultural products and live stock are Charles- 
 ton, Columbia, Newberry, Greenville, Spartanburg, 
 and other towns in this State ; Charlotte, N.C., At- 
 lanta, Augusta and Savannah in Ga. The cotton is 
 purchased in those cities principally by commission 
 merchants and consigned by them to Europe and the 
 Northern States of the Union. In 1880 the principal 
 agricultural prod, were 11,767,099 bush, of corn, 2,- 
 715,505 of oats, 962,358 of wheat, 52,077,515 lbs. of 
 rice, 138,924 galls, of molasses, and 522,548 bales of 
 cotton. The amount of wages paid for farm labor 
 decreased, according to the census returns, from $7,- 
 404,297 in 1870 to 15,981,616 in 1880. The total value 
 of farm prod, was $41,967,746 in 1880, against $41,- 
 909,402 in 1870. The number of horses, mules, and 
 other domestic animals, reported in the three last 
 census years, was as follows :

 The rice plantations of the Carolinas and Ga., 
 which before the war produced 175,000 tierces of 600 
 pounds, were destroyed and the cultivation discon- 
 tinued during the war. It was commenced again it) 
 1864-'65, in which year the product amounted to 4.- 
 000 tierces, and has been gradually extended until 
 the crop of 1880-'81 reached 115,000 tierces. The Car- 
 olina product increased from 48,000 tierces in 1878- 
 '79 to 63,750 in 1879-80, and 69,000 in 1880-'81. The 
 product of N.C., included in these returns, is com- 
 paratively small. The rice-lands of S.C, which are 
 not suitable for any other crop, give employment to 
 thousands of the colored people, who were thrown 
 upon their own resources after the war. — S.C. is not 
 a manuf . State. According to the census of 1880, the 
 State had 2,078 manuf. establishments, employing 
 22,018 hands, capital invested$11.205,894, wages paid 
 during the year, $2,836,289, value of materials, $9,885,-

 were 14 in active operation, having an aggregate capi- 
 tal of $2,776,100, spindles 82,334, looms 1,676. The 
 commerce and navigation of S.C. are noticed under 
 the names of its three customs districts : Charles- 
 ton, Beaufort and Georgetown. In 1882 there 
 were 1,484 m. of railroad in operation in the State. 
 Tha Santee Canal, 22 m. long, connects Charleston, 
 through Cooper R. , with the Santee. There are also 
 several short canals, having an aggregate length of 
 abt. 30 m. — There are in the State 3,331 educational 
 institutions of various kinds, as follows : Colleges, 
 male and female 12, professional schools 2, with a 
 wide range of study, and are supported by the towns 
 and the State. The annual school appropriations 
 amount to more than §600,000. A portion of the 
 schools, in the larger towns especially, are thorough- 
 ly graded and are furnished with apparatus and li- 
 braries. The State has also, in some parts, select pri- 
 vate schools, commercial institutes "and academies. 
 Providence voluntarily sustains a school of design. 
 Scituate and East Greenwich have academies. The 
 State normal school, located in Providence, receives 
 an annual appropriation of $9,000. Brown university, 
 situated in Providence, founded by the Baptists in 
 1764, is a liberal college of a very high rank, known 
 over all the country for its able teachers and gradu- 
 ate--.— S.C. is divided into 33 cos. (formerly called 
 districts) viz.: Abbeville, Aiken, Anderson, Barn- 
 well, Beaufort, Berkeley, Charleston, Chester, Ches- 
 terfield, Clarendon, Colleton, Darlington, Edgefield, 
 Fairfield, Georgetown, Greenville, Hampton, Horry, 
 Kershaw, Lancaster, Laurens, Lexington, Marion, 
 Marlborough, Newberry, Oconee, Orangeburg!), 
 Pickens, Richland, Spartan burgh, Sumter, Union, 
 Williamsburg, York. Columbia is the cap. Charles- 
 ton is the chief city. Charleston and Port Royal rank 
 among the finest harbors on the Atlantic. The latter 
 is fast becoming the outlet for a vast amount of 
 Western products as well as for cotton and rice 
 shipped direct to Europe. Taking into consideration 
 its geographical position, climate, soil, mineral pro- 
 ductions.means of artificial fertilization, water-power, 
 means of inland transportation, and foreign com- 
 merce, its health and rare beauty, S.C. is unquestion- 
 ably one of the finest countries in the world. Its peo- 
 ple as a whole are alive to the importance of settling 
 up the land now idle for want of efficient labor, and 
 every encouragement is held out to immigrants 
 and capitalists. The government is administered 
 under the constitution adopted in 1868. The legisla- 
 ture consists of 33 senators, elected for 4 years, and 
 124 representatives, elected for2 years. The governor 
 (salary, $3,500 and a furnished house) and lieutenant 
 governor are chosen for 2 years. Three judges, ap- 
 pointed by the general assembly for 6 years each, 
 constitutes the supreme court. The chief-justice is 
 paid a salary of $4,500, and the others $3,500 each. 
 There are 2 circuit courts, of which thecourtof com- 
 mon pleas has civil jurisdiction and the court of 
 general sessions has criminal jurisdiction only. A 
 court of probate is establis led in each county. In 
 1881 the total State debt was $7,253,447. The valua- 
 tion of taxable property was $136,999,989 (real estate 
 $79,563,022, personal property $45,504,063, railroad 
 property $12,132,900). Tax levy (5 mills) $684,999.94. 
 — In 1562 a party of French Huguenots built a fort 
 upon an island in Port Royal Harbor and called it 
 Carolina, in honor of Charles IX. of France. This 
 colony was soon dispersed. The first permanent set- 
 tlement was made by a company of English colonists, 
 at Port Royal, in 1670. In 1685, a large company of 
 French Huguenots established themselves in the 
 State. South Carolina bore an honorable part in the 
 struggle for independence. The battles of Camden, 
 King's Mt., Cowpens, Eutaw Springs and others of 
 lesser note were fought upon her soil. An ordinance 
 of secession was passed Dec. 17, 1860, and the bom- 
 
 bardment and capture of Fort Sumter by Gen. Beau- 
 regard, April 12, 13, 1861, was the first act of open 
 hostility of South against North. The destructive 
 march of Gen. W. T. Sherman from Savannah 
 through S.C. began in Jan., 1S65. The State was re- 
 admitted into the Union, July 13th, 1868. Pop. in

 Spuyteu l>uyvil (spl't'n di'vil), N. Y., form-

 city of New York. It is 12 in. N. of the city hall by 
 N.Y.C.&H.R.RR., and has a branch p.o. 
 
 Spuyteu Duyvil Creek, N. Y, a tortuous 
 narrow channel connecting the Hudson R. with the 
 Harlem R., and thence with the East R. on Long Is- 
 lam! Sound. The creek forms the N. boundary of 
 Manhattan Island. Flaws of wind are apt to burst 
 along the depression through which the creek runs, 
 impeding the navigation by sailing craft, and the 
 name is probably derived from an oath sworn by an 
 old Dutch shipmaster, that he would pass the mouth 
 of the creek Spruyt den Duyvil " in spite of the de- 
 vil." It is too shallow for navigation, and proposi- 
 tions have been made from time to time to deepen its 
 endsatthe E. and W., cut a ship canal across the 
 neck formed by its devious course, and so make, in 
 connection with improvements in the bed of the 
 Harlem R., a channel between Long Island Sound 
 and the Hudson R.. through which vessels might- 
 pass from the one to the other, instead of being com- 
 pelled to make the circuit of the entire city of New 
 York as at present.

 Stat'em Island, N. Y.,an island forming the 
 co. of Richmond (which see), is in shape an irregu- 
 lar triangle, its base being bounded by the Kill von 
 Kull, which separates it from the mainland of New 
 Jersey on the N. and Newark Bay ; its longest side on 
 the E. and S. by New York harbor and the lower or 
 maratime bay respectively ; and its shortest side on 
 the W. by Staten Island Sound, abt. § m. wide, 
 which runs between it and New Jersey. Its area, is 
 abt. 60 m., its greatest length 13 m., and its greatest 
 breadth, 8 m. The island is very hilly, and its shores 
 are almost everywhere dotted with the villas of New 
 York business and professional men, who make it 
 their place of residence all the year round. On the E. 
 shore, opposite which Long Island comes to a point 
 and forms the entrance to "New York harbor called 
 the Narrows, are Fort Wadsworth, Battery Hudson, 
 and a line of water batteries, which, with Fort Lafa- 
 yette on the opposite shore, command the entrance 
 to the harbor. The quarantine statiou for vessels en- 
 tering the port of New York is also here, and the 
 quarantine hospital is on the S. shore. On the N. 
 shore is the Sailors' Snug Harbor, a retreat for super- 
 annuated seamen. There is but one line of railway on 
 the island. It extends from Tompkinsville to Totten- 
 ville, following the longest side of the triangle about 
 a mile from the shore, and which connects with Perth 
 Amboy, New Jersey, by a steam-ferry about every 
 hour. Ferry-boats run from New York to Tompkins- 
 ville, Stapleton, and Clifton, on the E. shore, from 
 the foot of Whitehall St., and from another pier ad- 
 joining to New Brighton, Sailors' Snug Harbor, Cas- 
 tleton, Port Richmond, and Elm Park, on the N.

 SsocfktoBB, Cod., a city<|>, cap. of San Joaquin 
 Co., at the head of a navigable channel of the same 
 name, connecting it with San Joachin R,, 3 m. there- 
 from, 92 m. E. by N. from San Francisco, and 48 m. 
 S.E. Sacramento by the W. div. of C.P.RR. The site 
 of the city is a level plain, whose monotony is re- 
 lieved by scattering oaks ; its streets are regularly 
 laid out, and many of them ornamented with choice 
 shade trees. The business portion of the city is prin- 
 cipally constructed of brick, and has many finebuild- 
 ings. It was laid out in 1849. Being at the head of 
 navigation and a convenient point of departure for 
 the gold-mining regions of Calaveras, Tuolumne, 
 and Mariposa cos., it soon became a place of consid- 
 erable business importance, and commanded the 
 trade of those prosperous counties. After the decline 
 of the mining interest came the development of the 
 agricultural resources of the great San Joaquin 
 valley, for which Stockton, on account of its lo- 
 cation, became the natural business centre, a distri- 
 buting point for farmers' supplies, and is now the 
 most important interior wheat market in California. 
 Stockton has several large warehouses for the stor- 
 age of grain, and sailing vessels of 150 tons, and 
 steamers of 500 tons burden reach her wharves at all 
 seasons of the year. Stockton has 15 churches, some 
 
 of them beautiful and costly edifices, 5 large public 
 school houses, a convent, 2 public libraries, a me- 
 chanics' institute, 2 nat. and 2 other banks, 3 daily 
 and 4 wkly papers, 2 large flouring mills, 2 extensive 
 tanneries, 2 manuf. of agricultural implements, and 
 2 of carriages aud wagons, a paper-mill, a woolen- 
 mill, 2 foundries, &c. The California insane asylum 
 is located within the city limits, occupying a hand- 
 some site of 100 acres. A never failing supply of pure 
 fresh water is obtained from artesian wells bored to 
 a depth of from 80 to 120 ft., in which the water 
 rises within 6 ft. of the surface. Pop. 10,282.

 Superior ILnke, the largest of the great lakes 
 of North America, and supposed to be the largest 
 body of fresh water on the surface of the globe. It is 
 roughly triangular iu outline, and is bounded N.W. 
 by Minnesota and the province of Ontario, N.E. by 
 Ontario, and S. by Wisconsin and Michigan. Its 
 length is abt.380 m.,its breadth 130 and its circumfer- 
 ence between 1,400 and 1,500 m.It is surrounded most- 
 ly by a rocky, uneven, and sterile coast. It contains 
 many considerable islands, the largest of "which, in 
 the N.VV. part, is Isle Royal. Its waters abound with 
 fish, particularly trout, sturgeon, and white fish, 
 which are caught at all sea-ons. The trout taken in 
 this lake generally weigh abt. 12 pounds, but many 
 are larger than this, even up to 50 pounds. The ele- 
 vation of the lake's surface above the ocean is 641 
 feet, and the mean depth of its bottom 900 feet. 
 This lake is subject to as violent agitation from 
 storms as the broad Atlantic, and its navigation is 
 quite as dangerous. More than 30 rivers empty their 
 waters into Lake Superior, which are all discharged 
 by the outlet of St. Mary's Strait, or River, into Lake 
 Huron, towards the E.- The boundary line between 
 the U.S. and the British possessions passes from its 
 outlet through the middle of the E. section of this 
 lake ; but towards the W. it is carried clear round 
 to the N. of Isle Ro3'al, giving that island and the 
 whole body of the lake below it to the U.S.; then 
 passing round the W. extremity of the island, it in- 
 clines S. to the entrance of Pigsoti R., leaving the 
 largest part of this section of the lake on the British 
 side. The Pictured Rocks, so called, towards the E. 
 end of Lake Superior, are a great natural curiosity. 
 They form a perpendicular wall 300 feet high, ex- 
 tending about 13 m. along the shore of the lake. Up- 
 on the face of this wall are numerous indentations 
 and projections, from which they have received 
 their name, and at the base are many deep receding 
 caverns, into which the waves, especially when lash- 
 ed by storms, roll and reverberate with a tremend- 
 ous roar. At one place, at the height of 70 feet,a con- 
 siderable stream leaps out, at a single burst from 
 this lofty palisade of rocks into the lake, leaving a 
 clear space for boats to pass behind its descending 
 column. At auother place four huge piers of the rock 
 bear up a vast stratum or entablature of the same, with 
 earth resting upon it, upon which are growing trees 
 of spruce and pine, some of which stand 50 or 60 feet 
 high. This is appropriately called the Doric Rock, 
 from its remarkahle resemblance to a work of art. 
 The American side of the lake is generally lower and 
 more sandy thau the Canadian side, and is especially 
 rich in its abundant deposites of native copper.with 
 which native silver is often associated, and in the not 
 less valuable beds of red hematite iron ores, which 
 are extensively wrought.

 SaasqaaeEasiaaFasa, Pa., a river, formed by the 
 union of its E. and W. branches at Northumberland, 
 Pa. The E. branch, the larger, rises in Otsego Lake, 
 Otsego co., N.Y., at an elevation of 1,300 ft. Its 
 course is S. and then S.W. to the Pa. line, which it 
 crosses twice, afterward flowing S.E., and thence 
 S.W. to the junction. The W. branch rises in Cam- 
 bria eo., Pa. It has a very tortuous and generally E. 
 course through a region abounding in timber and 
 coal, but less celebrated for its fertility and beauty 
 than the valley of the E. branch, a portion of which, 
 called the Wyoming Valley, is world-renowned for 
 the historic events of which it has been the scene, as- 
 well as for the mineral wealth which it contains. The 
 main Susquehanna flows first in a S. and then in a 
 S.E. course through a wide, open, exceedingly fer- 
 tile, and very picturesque country of Devonian slates 
 and limestones. It reaches the head of Chesapeake 
 Bay at Port Deposit, Md. It is a wide and stately 
 stream, but is shallow, and is nowhere navigable to 
 any extent, save in the spring, when the freshets 
 bring down great rafts of logs and lumber and some 
 loaded boats. The length of the main stream is 150 
 m., of the W. branch 200 m., of the E. (or N.) branch 
 250 m. The branches afford great water-power. The 
 
SUT

 main stream and both branches haw been canalized, 
 but the railroads have to a great extent rendered the 
 canals useless.

 a lofty spire. Syracuse was first noted for its exten- 
 sive salt works, which, before the opening of the 
 salt wells in Michigan, were the largest in America. 
 There are 20 salt companies, which manuf. both by 
 solar and artificial heat, employing a vast amount of 
 capital and hundreds of men. The manuf. establish- 
 ments of Syracuse are numerous and important. 
 Among them are 2 rolling mills, numerous furnaces, 
 glassworks, steelworks, agricultural machine works, 
 numerous barrel factories, 7 breweries and main- 
 others. The wholesale trade of the city is very large, 
 aggregating many milliousof dollars annually. There 
 are large wholesale houses in drygoods, groceries, 
 clothing, drugs and medicines, leather, boots and 
 shoes, malt liquors, tobacco and cigars, etc. Syracuse 
 had, in 1883, 8 nat. State and savings banks, and sev- 
 eral private bankers. Each of these institutions has 
 erected a large and elegant banking edifice in the 
 central part of the city. The public school system is 
 complete in all its oppointments, and in the most 
 prosperous condition, in 1880 they were taught by 
 177 instructors, all but 8 of them women, in 19 school 
 buildings. The number of pupils enrolled was 9,310 
 and the average attendance 7,037. The day schools 
 are classed as primary, junior, senior, high, and un- 
 graded, each of the first 3 extending over 3 years. 
 The high school nad an enrollment of 414, with 282 in 
 average attendance, the graduating class numbering 
 41. The Syracuse university was established by the 
 Methodists in 1870, and opened in 1871. The plan is 
 that of an assemblage of colleges of both under- 
 graduate and professional grades, and three of these 
 have been established, viz.: the college of the liberal 
 arts, which confers degrees in the arts, philosophy, 
 and science ; the college of physicians and surgeons; 
 and the college of the fine arts. The library contains 
 abt. 8,000 volumes. All the colleges are open to stu- 
 dents of both sexes, who pursue the same courses of 
 instruction in the same classes. While the responsi- 
 bility of support and direction devolves mainly upon 
 the Methodist Episcopal church, all sectarian differ- 
 ences are ignored, and attendance upon chapel exer- 
 cises is not compulsory. There are 3 public libraries 
 —the central library, located in the high school 
 building, and containing 14,000 volumes ; the library 
 of the court of appeals, in the court-house, contain- 
 ing 8,000 to 9,000 volumes, generally of a legal char- 
 acter ; and a small library in the rooms of the young 
 men's christian association. In 1882 there were 20 
 newspapers and periodicals, of which 4 were daily. 
 The church organizations of the city are numerous, 
 representing 12 or 14 different denominations, and 
 numbering not less than 45 congregations. There are 
 7 cemeteries, of which Oakwood and St. Agnes are 
 large and very tastefully laid out. The city is divided 
 into 8 wards, and is governed by a mayor aud a 
 board of eight aldermen. It has an effective police 
 force, a good fire department, water works, and 
 street railroads. Syracuse was first settled in 1797. It 
 was incorporated as a village in 1825, and became a 
 city in 1847. Pop. in 1850, 22,271 ; in 1880, 28,119; in

 Mts. in Tazewell and Wise cos., Va. Its principal head 
 tributaries are the Holston and the Clinch Rs., the 
 former of which receives the French Broad R., and 
 the latter Powell's R. The Holston and Clinch unite 
 at Kingston, in Roan co., Tenn., and thence the 
 course of the main stream is about S.W,, until it 
 crosses the boundary of Ala. near the N.E. corner of 
 the State, and continuing 50 or 60 m. in this direction 
 bends toward the N.W., breaking through the Cum- 
 berland Mts., and traversing the entire N. end of Ala- 
 bama, until, cutting off a small comer of Miss., it em- 
 erges again into Tenn., where it immediately takes a 
 course due N., crossing the State and entering Ky., 
 across the Western point of which, bearing a little 
 farther to the W., it flows on to its confluence with 
 the Ohio, which is only abt. 12 m. below the mouth 
 of the Cumberland R. The valley of the Tennessee 
 divides itself into two great sections, the upper and 
 the lower. The upper valley is that which is above the 
 passage of the river through the Cumberland Mts., 
 and is included between the two parallel chains of 
 the Appalachian system, which form a connection 
 just below this pass. This upper section is mountain- 
 ous and much elevated, embracing an area of about 
 24,000 sq. m. The lower valley of the Tennessee is 
 composed of several physical sections, in N. Ala. 
 W. Tenn., and Ky., comprising in all an area of 17,- 
 600 sq. m. Thus the whole valley of this large river 
 embraces a superficial extent of 41,600 sq. m. It is, 
 therefore, by this standard of estimation, as well as 
 from its comparative length, which is near 1,200 m. 
 and from the large volume of water which it carries, 
 entitled to the first rank among the tributaries of the 
 Ohio. The difference in the relative height between 
 the highest and the lowest extremes of the upper and 
 lower valleys of the Tennessee is not less than 1,700 ft. 
 The current of every branch of the river is very rapid 
 though there are few, if any, direct falls in them, and 
 tbey generally admit of boat navigation nearly to 
 their sources. The whole riverhas a mean fall of 2 ft. 
 to the mile. It is navigable, excepting at low water, 
 for steamboats, from its mouth to Florence, in Ala., 
 a distance of 259 m. Here are the Muscle Shoals, 
 wherethe riverexpands to a width of several miles,and 
 is very shallow. A canal has been made around these 
 shoals, 36 m. long to admit the passage of steamboats, 
 and the navigation of the river above is unobstructed 
 for 250 m. to the pass of the Cumberland Mts. The 
 river is here compressed to a width of 70 ft. besides 
 being whirled arouud a projecting cliff, occasioning 
 a very difficult current for boats whether ascending or 
 descending. The river above this point is only favor- 
 able to navigation with the stream. 
 — a S. State, bounded N. by Kentucky and Vir- 
 ginia, S.E. by North Carolina, S. by Georgia, Ala- 
 bama and Mississippi and W. by Arkansas and Mis- 
 souri. It is situated between lat. 35° and 36° 35' and 
 Ion. 81° 40' and 90° 28' W.; extreme length from E. 
 to W. 430 m., breadth from N. to S. 110 m.; area, 
 41,750 sq. m. Within the State are parts of two great 
 mountain ranges which extend quite across, running 
 from N. E. to S. W. The first of these is the Appalach- 
 ian chain, which by its greater axis forms the dividing 
 
 line between N. C. and Tenn. These mountains, 
 known locally as the Unakas or Great Smoky Mts., 
 occupy a belt within the eastern ponionof the State, 
 and as before stated, extend entirely across it. Their 
 highest peaks rise to an altitude of more than 6,000 
 feet. The mountain chain is cut into deep, rocky 
 gorges, affording channels for the passage of tribu- 
 taries of the Holston and Tennessee Rs., which 
 enter the State from N. C. and Ga. Entangled, as it 
 were, between this mountain range and its outliers 
 are a number of coves and valleys of great beauty 
 and fertility. The second mountain chain is known 
 in Tenn. as the Cumberland Mts., which enter from 
 S.W. Va. and S.E. Ky., and extend to the Ala. and 
 Ga. line. This range consists mainly of an elevated 
 plateau or table-land, having a comparatively level 
 surface and an elevation of abt. 2,000 ft. Its width 
 varies from 30 to 60 m. Its E. escarpment is gen- 
 erally regular and precipitous. Walden's Ridge, 
 which may be regarded as an outlier of the Cumber- 
 laud Mts., is separated from the main plateau by the 
 Sequatchee Valley, and extends along its E. base 
 nearly across the State, and gives rise to some peaks 
 which tower considerably above the general level of 
 the plateau. South of the Tennessee R., near Chat- 
 tanooga, Lookout Mountain rises just within the 
 limits of Tenn. and extends into Ga. The W. face 
 of the plateau is much fringed and notched by coves 
 which cut their way far into the mountain. Some of 
 the W. outliers form peaks which rise to the level of 
 the plateau. This mountain range forms the dividing 
 line between the civil divisions of the State, known 
 respectively as East and Middle Tenn. The State 
 has 3 great rivers which, with their tributaries, con- 
 stitute 3 great river systems. The first of these, as 
 it finally receives the waters of the other two, is the 
 Mississippi, which, in its tortuous, though generally 
 S. course for several hundred miles, washes the W. 
 shores of Tenn. The two other great rivers are 
 the Tennessee (described above), and the Cum- 
 berland (given at its alphabetical order). — Tenn. is 
 divided into East, Middle and West Tenn. Each of 
 these divisions constitutes a Federal district. East 
 Tenn. is bounded on the south by Ga., E. by N. 
 C, N. by Va. and Ky., and on the W. it adjoins 
 Middle Tenn. near the center of the Cumberland 
 Plateau. East Tenn. is noted for the fertility of its 
 valleys, the beauty of its mountain scenery, the salu- 
 brity cf its climate and its rich mineral deposits, es- 
 pecially numerous valuable mines of iron and coal so 
 adjacent to and convenient that Knoxville forms 
 one of the best centers for iron in the South. 
 Already there are several large foundries and fur- 
 naces located at Knoxville. Chattanooga has more 
 manufactures of iron than any other place in Tenn. 
 East Tenn. embraces 34 cos., viz.: Anderson, Bled- 
 soe, Blount, Bradley, Campbell, Carter, Claiborne, 
 Cocke, Grainger, Greene, Hamblen, Hamilton, Han- 
 cock, Hawkins, James, Jefferson, Johnson, Knox, 
 Loudon, Marion, McMinn, Meigs, Monroe, Morgan, 
 Polk, Rhea, Roane, Scott, Sequatchee, Sevier, Sulli- 
 van, Unicoi, Union, Washington. — Middle Tenn. 
 embraces the territory lying between the dividing 
 line of East and Middle Tenn. passing over the cen- 
 tral portion of the Cumberland Plateau, and the 
 Tennessee R., where it crosses the S. boundary of 
 the State, and pursuing a N. course crosses the 
 State line into Ky. It includes the great Limestone 
 Basin and the surrounding Highland Rim, or more 
 properly, Plateau of Middle Tenn., and a portion of 
 the Cumberland Plateau. The ba,sin is a rich and 
 populous section, more fully developed than most 
 portions of the State. The plateau portion, while 
 generally less fertile, yet has much valuable arable 
 land. The E. portion contains vast deposits of coal 
 and also iron, wr.ile the W. part of the plateau is 
 one vast irou field. All portions of this division 
 
TEN

 are bountifully supplied with timber. Limestone of 
 good quality is found almost everywhere, and an 
 excellent marble in some localities. The principal 
 navigable stream is the Cumberland, though there 
 are hundreds of smaller streams, affording abun- 
 dance of water power. This division contains 41 
 cos., viz.: Bedford, Cannon, Cheatham, Clay, Coffee, 
 Cumberland, Davidson, DeKalb, Dickson, Fentress, 
 Franklin, Giles, Grundy, Hickman, Houston, 
 Humphreys, Jackson, Lawrence, Lewis, Lincoln, 
 Macon, Marshall, Maury, Montgomery, Moore, Over- 
 ton, Perry, Pickett, Putnam, Robertson, Ruther- 
 ford. Smith, Stewart, Sumner, Trousdale, Van 
 Buren, Warren, Wayne, White, Williamson, Wil- 
 son. — West Tennessee lies between the Tennessee 
 and Mississippi Rs. Agriculturally speaking, it is 
 one of the finest bodies of land iu the State or 
 South. It is well adapted to all branches of agri- 
 culture, although the soil varies very greatly in its 
 composition and character. From 3 to 10 niik-s W. 
 of the Tennessee B. is a rich bottom, and from 10 
 to 40 m. E. of the Mississippi R. is another bottom 
 of surpassing fertility. The latter is noted all over 
 the world for the profuse luxuriance of its vege- 
 tation. The soil is unfathomable and will produce 
 the most abundant crops, without manure, from 
 year to year. Between the two rivers is a gradual 
 slope from E. to W. which for the most part is 
 sandy loam. It being warm, the soil loose, it makes 
 quick growth, and is therefore finely adapted to all 
 crops that require a fast growth, especially garden 
 stuffs and small vegetables. The timber of West Tenn. 
 is very valuable and plentiful. Much of the timber 
 that goes to making farm implements iu the N. is 
 derived from West Tenn. Fruit grows splendidly 
 from the looseness of the subsoil. Memphis, formerly 
 the largest, now the second city iu the State, is in 
 this section. Every co. has a populous town in it, 
 some of them being very fine ones. Jackson, next to 
 Nashville, Memphis and Kuoxville, is a great manu- 
 facturing center, and several other points are put- 
 ting up furniture establishments. This is close to the 
 excellent lumber which is practically boundless in 
 West Tenn. The bottoms on the Mississippi R. 
 are capable, if properly cultivated, of feeding the 
 entire State. The soil makes over a bale of cotton 
 per acre, or from sixty to one hundred bushels of 
 corn. The cos. of this division are: Benton, Car- 
 roll, Chester (recently formed from parts of Madi- 
 son, Henderson, McNairy and Hardeman), Crocket, 
 Decatur, Dyer, Fayette, Gibson, Hardeman, Hardin, 
 Haywood, "Henderson, Henry, Lake, Lauderdale, 
 Madison, McNairy, Obion, +Perry, Shelby, Tipton, 
 Weakley. — The products of the State are of all kinds 
 cultivated in the temperate zone. Cotton is the 
 staple of AVest Tenn., grain of the Middle, and 
 stock-raising of East Tenn. Tobacco is grown 
 in every co. iu the State. — The climate of Tenn. 
 is as varied as her topography. The isothermal 
 lines crossing the State are : Spring, 5°-60°; 
 summer, 71°-77°; autumn, 55°-60°; winter, 35°^0°; 
 yearly mean, 60°. During the year 1880 the 
 mean temperature at Knoxville was 57.5°, and 
 the maximum 99°. At Nashville the mean was 
 61.3°, and the maximum 106°; upon 63 days dur- 
 ing June, July and August the mercury rose to 
 90°, and upon 7 days it reached 100°. At Mem- 
 phis the thermometer indicated a temperature 
 of 100° upon 4 days, and one day rose to 101.5°, 
 the mean was 61.6 degrees. The rainfall at 
 Memphis was 49.39 inches, at Nashville 59.76 
 inches and at Kuoxville 63.50 inches. Snow oc- 
 casionally falls throughout the State, varying 
 in quantity from the lightest coveriug to the 
 earth to from 4 to 6 inches, and in rare instances 
 reaching the depth of 12 to 18 inches. Except in 
 the mountain regions it seldom remains upon the 
 
 ground more than a few days. Ice is sometimes 
 formed from 4 to 10 inches in thickness. For a 
 period of 10 years the average number of days dur- 
 ing which the wind blew from different points of the 
 compass were as follows : North, 120 ; Northeast, 
 128; East, 105; Southeast, 119; South, 176 ; South- 
 west, 116 ; West, 75 ; Northwest, 130 ; calm, 126. The 
 climatic conditions of Tenn. are highly favorable to 
 health and longevity. The cool and. bracing atmos- 
 phere of the Cumberland Plateau, and of the ele- 
 vated portions of EastTenn. render those parts oflhe 
 
 j State delightful as resorts during Summer heats.

 There were 266,119 horses ; 173,488 mules ; 303,832 
 milch cows ; 27,320 working oxen ; 452,462 other 
 cattle ; 673,117 sheep ; and 2,158,169 hogs.— The total 
 production of the coal miners in 18S0 was 494,491 
 tons, value 8628,954. The yield of the iron mines 
 was 89,933 tons of ore, value §129,951. There were 
 in Tenn. 4.326 manuf. establishments, employing 
 22,445 hands; capital invested, 820,092,845; wages 
 paid during the year, 85,234,775; value of materials, 
 823.836,262; value of products, 837,074,S86. The 
 State had 16 cotton mills, working 818 looms and 
 35,736 spindles. Memphis, Nashville and Chatta- 
 nooga are U. States ports of delivery, but the for- 
 eign commerce is transacted chiefly through New 
 Orleans, Mobile and Charleston. In 18S2 there were 
 93 vessels, all steamers having a tonnage of 14,521, 
 belonging to the ports of Tenn. During that year 
 9 steamers of 487 tons in aggregate were built, and 
 the State had 1,973 m. of railroad in operation. — 
 Tenn. enjoys peculiar advantages for the higher 
 education of the youth of both sexes. The follow- 
 ing universities are located within her limits : Van- 
 derbilt university, at Nashville ; Tennessee univer- 
 sity, at Kuoxville ; Wesleyan university, at Athens; 
 Cumberland university, at Lebanon ; university of 
 the South, at Sewanee ; Southwestern university, at 
 
 I Clarksville ; Southwestern Baptist university, at 
 Jackson ; and Fisk university (colored), at Nash- 
 ville; all of which maintain a high standard of 
 scholarship. Besides these universities, all of which 
 except the university of Tennessee, are under the 
 care of some one of the religious denominations of 
 the country, there are large numbers of colleges, 
 collegiate institutes, seminaries, academies and high 
 schools. The university of Tennessee has an agri- 
 cultural department which is rendering invaluable 
 service to the agricultural interests of the State. 
 
 i In many localities good private schools have been 
 maintained for many years and have established for 
 themselves quite enviable reputations. Under the 
 laws of Tenn. each city and incorporated town has 
 authority to levy a tax for school purposes, and the 
 large majority of them have availed themselves of 
 the privilege and established graded schools of good 
 character. The State has a well arranged system of 
 free schools, which is gradually becoming efficient 
 for the education of the masses of her children. The 
 
TEN

 TJ£R 
 
 total expenditure for free schools in Tenn. during 
 the year 1882 was $835,629.22. The whole number 
 of free schools taught in the State was 5,603, with an 
 average duration of four months and six days. The 
 average daily attendance upon these schools was 
 180,509. It is confidently anticipated that within a 
 very few years the rapidly growing interest which 
 is being developed throughout the State will give to 
 the free schools all the efficiency which the friends 
 of popular education can desire. The benevolent 
 institutions sustained by the State, are, the asylum 
 for the insane, located near Nashville ; the school 
 for the blind, at Nashville ; and the asylum for the 
 deaf and dumb, at Kuoxville. The penitentiary at 
 Nashville isconducted on the " silent system." — The 
 general assembly of Tenn. consists of a senate and 
 house of representatives, the former consisting of 33, 
 and the latter of 99 members who are elected for 2 years 
 and hold regular biennial sessions. The governor 
 and other executive officers are chosen for a term of 
 2 years, with the exception of the secretary of State, 
 "who continues in office for 4 years. Five judges, 
 chosen by popular election, constitute the supreme 
 court. Circuit and chancery courts have been estab- 
 lished by the legislature. The term of office for 
 judges is 8 years. The State is entitled to 10 repre- 
 sentatives in congress, and has therefore 12 electoral 
 votes. In 1882 the total State debt was $20,229,300, 
 and interest past due and unpaid, $4,156,522.73. The 
 debt on January 1, 1874, was $49,173,316.66; the 
 above is under the funding act of 1873. There are 
 also $785,000 outstanding bonds which have not been 
 renewed or registered. Assessed valuation for 1880 — 
 real estate, $195,635,100 ; personalty, $16,133,338 ; and 
 railroads, $16,375,894— total, $228,144,332. Tax rate, 
 1 mill=$228,144.33. For the two years ending Dec. 18, 
 1880, the receipts from all sources amounted to $1,- 
 144,394.82, and the payments to $1,400,316.47. Ex- 
 cess of payments, $255,921.65. An act passed in 1881 
 provided for refunding the debt in bonds bearing 3 
 per cent, interest, and covering the full face of the 
 old bonds, and 12 overdue coupons, including that 
 of July 1, 1881. Coupons to be receivable for taxes 
 on Feb. 10, 1882. The State supreme court held this 
 law to be unconstitutional. — In 1754 a settlement 
 was made by colonists from N.C., who were soon 
 driven away by hostile Indians. The first permanent 
 6ettlemeut W. of the Alleghanies was made on the 
 Tennessee R. in 1756, when Fort Loudon was erected. 
 Four years later the Cherokee Indians captured the 
 fort and butchered or reduced to captivity all the 
 whites. Until 1789 the territory was regarded as be- 
 longing to N.C. In that year it was ceded to the 
 general government. A territorial government was 
 organized in 1794, and Tenn. was admitted to the 
 Union as the 16th State June 1, 1796. On the 8th 
 of June, 1861, a majority voted to separate from the 
 U. States and to unite with the Southern confeder- 
 acy. Full relations to the Union were restored July 
 24, 1866. A new constitution was ratified by the peo- 
 ple March 26,1870. Pop. in 1790,35,691; in 1810,

 Texas, a S.W. State, bounded N.W. and N. by 
 New Mexico and the Indian Territory, E. by Arkan- 
 sas and Louisiana, S.E. by the Gulf of Mexico and 
 S.W. by Mexico. It is situated between lat. 25° 50' 
 and 36° 30' N., and Ion. 93° 30' and 107° W. The ex- 
 treme length is 810 m., the breadth 750 m., and the 
 area262,290 sq. m., 175,587,840 acres. All of the New 
 England and Middle States, together with Maryland, 
 Virginia and North Carolina, have a smaller extent 
 of territory than this one State of Texas. It is sepa- 
 rated from the Indian Territory by the Red R. for 400 
 m.; from Louisiana by Sabine R., and from Mexico 
 by the Rio Grande. A belt of country, varying from 
 20 to 100 m. in width, extends along the Gulf of 
 Mexico, comprising in whole or in part the cos. of 
 Cameron, Neuces, San Patricio, Refugio, Calhoun, 
 Victoria, Jackson, Wharton, Matagorda, Fort Bend, 
 Brazoria, Chambers, Jefferson and Orange. On this 
 great plain of alluvial formation, occur perhaps the 
 richest lands in the world. Its staple products are 
 sugar and cotton, and its fruits the banana, orange, 
 pear, peach, grape, etc. In healthfulness this sec- 
 tion Df Texas is equal to that of any alluvial country. 
 The chief diseases are typhus and other fevers. 
 Along the coast are many narrow islands, also of al- 
 luvial formation, the configuration of which is some- 
 times entirely changed by the terrible West Indian 
 hurricanes. East Texas embraces the territory E. of 
 Trinity R. as far N. as the N.W. corner of Hender- 
 son co., and S. of an imaginary line running from 
 thence to the Red R. The lower portion, 30 or 40 
 m. in width, is within and has all the characteristics 
 of the alluvial belt. It is the great timber region 
 of Texas, and, indeed, there are few regions anywhere 
 which can excel it in the quality, quantity, and 
 variety of its timber. In some districts the pine pre- 
 vails almost exclusively on the uplands, in other re- 
 gions the pine, of gigantic growth, is mixed promis- 
 cuously with white oak, cypress, magnolia, hickory, 
 pecan, cedar and a vast variety of other timber. Be 
 sides pine there are (as in many other parts of the 
 State ) vast tracts of red and white cypress, of enor- 
 mous size, frequently 6 or 7 ft. in diameter. There 
 ; s also a great deal of walnut, mulberry and mag- 
 nolia. The staple crops are cotton and corn. Tobacco 
 of excellent quality is raised, and as a peach-pro- 
 ducing country the upper portion of this section 
 is superior to the State of Delaware. The only 
 minerals known to exist are iron ores, which 
 are profitably worked ; lignite, gypsum and salt. 
 The health is good throughout the whole section, 
 but especially is in the middle and northern portion. 
 Central Texas extends from the Trinity R. on the E. 
 to the Colorado and the 99th degree of Ion. on the

 W.; and from the 32d parallel of lat. on the N., to 
 the Alluvial Plain on the S. It offers a great diver- 
 sity of scenery, soil and products, and all (except 
 the latter) differing remarkably from Eastern Texas. 
 These points of difference will be observed as we 
 proceed. Starting from the Gulf Plain, the territory 
 immediately begins to ascend, first by slow grada- 
 tions and very gentle undulations. Moving still far- 
 ther N., the elevation becomes more distinct and 
 rapid, and the undulations bold and prominent. 
 This condition increases and intensifies until we 
 reach Austin on the W. side of the line, where 
 we enter a region of highlands and valleys, which as 
 we move northward assumes a somewhat mountain- 
 ous aspect. The distance from the Alluvial Plain to 
 Austin is about 150m., and we find that theelevation 
 above the sea has risen above 600 feet in that 
 short distance, or about four feet to the mile. In 
 the E. portion of Central Texas the region of easy 
 ascents and undulations extends much farther N., 
 and on that line no such elevation as that about 
 Austin occurs. The soil is largely a black, sandy 
 loam. The chief products of the S. portion are cot- 
 ton, corn and oats ; while in the N. portion wheat 
 divides the honors with cotton. North Central Texas 
 includes all above a line running from the Trinity R. 
 in Navarro co. to the Colorado near Austin. It is a 
 region of lofty highlands, deep valleys and large roll- 
 ing prairies. The geological formation is mostly 
 cretaceous, limestone being the only rock. There 
 are rapid, sparkling streams filled with fish. It is a 
 region of short, sweet, nutritious grasses, unsur- 
 passed for sheep and horses. The soil of this varied 
 region is nearly altogether a very strong " black- 
 waxy '' soil, charged with lime, and having very 
 little sand. Indeed, it is often difficult to detect the 
 presence of any sand whatever. Such a soil might 
 readily be expected from the prevailing limestone 
 rocks. In the valleys, particularly along the great 
 rivers, we find the famous " hog-wallow" prairies. 
 They are so-called from the multitudes of small 
 saucer-like depressions which characterize them. 
 These depressions are from 2 to 5 or 6 ft. in dia- 
 meter, from a few inches to a foot in depth, and 
 usually very close together. They are usually in 
 valleys, but sometimes found on the summits of the 
 highest hills or undulations, where they have a level 
 surface. In Central Texas is included another sub- 
 division, sometimes called North Texas, which lies N. 
 of the 32° parallel, and is composed of high roll- 
 ing prairie, with considerable timber. It is this 
 section into which the tide of immigration is now 
 flowing with the greatest strength. North Texas 
 contains a number of young cities which promise to 
 become places of great commercial importance ; as, 
 for instance, Marshall, Sherman, Dallas and Fort 
 Worth. West Texas embraces that immense scope 
 of territory from the Colorado and the 99th parallel 
 of Ion. on the E., to the Rio Grande on the W, and 
 from the upper line of Green, Runnels and Coleman 
 co. on the S., to the Gulf of Mexico. This vast ter- 
 ritory contains every imaginable sort of landscape:— 
 the level pampas, the rolling prairie, deep forests, 
 pleasant highlands, lofty tablelands, dark gorges, 
 deep canons and, finally, lofty and rugged mountains. 
 This region is supposed to possess great mineral 
 wealth, but no thorough geological surveys have 
 been made. Mineral veins are found in nearly all 
 the mountains, but none have been penetrated more 
 than a few feet. Silver, gold, copper, lead and iron 
 have been found in no inconsiderable quantities. 
 Among the products that especially flourish in 
 certain localities of this division of the State, 
 may be mentioned the grape, which, it is prophesied, 
 will here find, eventually, a marvelous development 
 of its culture. Wheat, also, is produced, in a large 
 area, of exceedingly fine quality. The greatest 
 
 area of its vast expanse is esteemed to be the best 
 sheep-raising country in the U. States. It is im- 
 possible to convey in less than a volume any idea of 
 the diversified soil and production of West Texas, 
 or of its physical characteristics. " The Pan Handle" 
 includes all north of the line of the Texas Pacific 
 railway W. of the 99th meridian and E. of the 
 Pecos R. It is a lofty region, its lowest borders 
 being 1,500 ft. above the sea, and its highest 5,100. 
 There are some extensive prairies, and as a stock 
 range it is supposed to have no equal anywhere. It is a 
 new country, only partially known, and now being 
 opened for the first time by railroads. It is believed 
 that there is an abundance of fuel, but not much 
 building timber. It is also thought to have an abun- 
 dance of water for stock purposes, but not for a 
 dense populatiou. The geological formation is 
 mainly carboniferous, permian and trias. There are 
 extensive seams of coal and some copper and iron. 
 There are also large deposits of salt and gypsum. — 
 Texas has 2 distinct climates with an intermediate 
 region sharing the characteristics of both in a 
 marked degree. There are certain S. and S.S.E. 
 winds which blow from the Gulf, that are charged 
 with moisture which they deposit before reaching 
 the highlands. They temper the summer's heat" 
 and make that season pleasant, so that there is an 
 agreeable, moist climate in the S. portion, a hot, dry 
 climate in the N., and an intermediate country in 
 which the two prevail in varied proportions. At 
 Galveston the rainfall was 67.47 inches ; at San Au- 
 tonio, 38.33 inches ; at Eagle Pass, 25.43 inches. 
 These figures indicate the humidity of the different 
 sections of the State. The healthfulness of West 
 Texas is excellent. Consumption never originates 
 there, nor is diphtheria known. — The State, except 
 in the region of the Llano Estacado, is well watered, 
 but none of the Texan rivers are navigable for any 
 considerable distance except at high water. The 
 Canadian R. crosses the Bexar territory in the ex- 
 treme N. end of the State. The Red R. has its source 
 in the Llano Estacado, but neither this nor the 
 Canadian has any large tributaries in the State, 
 though each receives numerous creeks. The Sabine 
 and the Neches discharge their waters into Sabine 
 Lake, draining the extreme eastern portion of the 
 State. Trinity R., rising in Grayson co. in the N., and 
 the San Jacinto, a smaller stream, both discharge 
 their waters into Galveston Bay. The Brazos, one of 
 the largest rivers in the State, has its source in the 
 N., near the Llano Estacado, and flows into the Gulf 
 of Mexico, abt. 36 m. below Galveston ; the Colorado, 
 another large river having its source in the Llano 
 Estacado, pursues a course nearly parallel with that 
 of the Brazos, and empties into Matagorda Bay. 
 The Guadalupe and San Antonio Rs. drain a con- 
 siderable portion of Southern Texas, and unite just 
 below their entrance into San Antonio Bay. Passing 
 the Aranzas R., a little stream falling into Aranzas 
 Bay, we come to the Nueces, a large river, which, 
 with its affluents, drains a large region in S.W. 
 Texas, and discharges its waters into Corpus Christi 
 Bay. Between this river and the Rio Grande, 8 or 10 
 creeks of no great length flow sluggishly through 
 the lands into the long land-locked sound known as 
 Laguna de la Madre. The Rio Grande del Norte, a 
 very long but shallow river, divides the State from 
 Mexico, and with its principal tributary, the Rio 
 Pecos, drains most of Western Texas. Speaking of the 
 mineral wealth of the country, Col. Forney says: 
 " God in his generosity seems to have given a share of 
 all his best gifts to Texas." Horace Greeley, who 
 made a journey through Texas in 1871, wrote : " As 
 yet the mineral wealth of Texas sleeps undisturbed 
 and useless. She has iron enough to divide the earth 
 by railroads into squares ten miles across, but no ton 
 of it was ever melted. She has at least 5,000 sq. m.

 of coal (probably much more), but no ton of it was 
 ever dug for sale. She has gypsum enough to plas- 
 ter the continent annually for a century, but it lies 
 •quiet and valueless — a waste of earth-covered stone." 
 Gold, silver, copper, lead, nickel, alum, cobalt, man- 
 ganese, arsenic and various precious stones, such as 
 the ruby, agate, garnet, amethyst aud opal, have 
 been found. There are large deposits of potters' 
 clay, fire-clay and marl, and extensive quarries of 
 granite, marble, slate, soap-stone, etc. Salt is very 
 abundant. These mineral resources are almost un- 
 touched. — In 1880, according to the census of this 
 year, the principal agricultural products were : 72,- 
 786 bush, of barley ; 29,065,173 of corn ; 4,893,359 of 
 oats; 25,399 of rye ; 2,567,760 of wheat; 803,642 
 bales of cotton ; 62,152 lbs. of rice ; 4,951 hogsheads 
 of sugar and 810,605 gals, of molasses. The farm 
 animals were : 806.099 horses ; 132,581 mules and 
 asses; 90,603 working oxen; 606,717 milch cows; 
 3,387,967 other cattle ; 2,411,887 sheep ; and 1,954,- 
 948 hogs. The weight of the hides of the animals 
 slaughtered in the State, not included in the above, 
 was 28,104,065 lbs. In 1880, Texas was only second 
 to California as a wool-growing State, her wool clips 
 being 14,568,920 lbs., valued at $2,013,784. Capital 
 is being largely invested in this industry, which 
 many believe to be the most profitable in the State. 
 Great numbers of hogs are raised at small cost, the 
 "mast" being excellent and abundant. The hogs 
 are shipped to market alive, as it is difficult to cure 
 pork in most sections of the State without the use of 
 ice. The Angora goat has been introduced and is 
 being raised with great profit. — There were, in 1880, 
 2,'.i!)6 manufacturing establishments, employing 12,- 
 159 hands ; capital invested, $9,245,561 ; wages paid 
 during the year, $3,343,087 ; value of materials, $12,- 
 956,269; value of products, $20,719,928. The most 
 important of these were flour and meal, sawed lum- 
 ber, cotton-seed cake and oil, packed beef, and 
 stoves. The State has 5 custom districts : Brazos de 
 Santiago (port of entry Brownsville), Corpus Christi, 
 Paso del Norte (El Paso), Saluria (Indianola), and 
 Texas (Galveston). The chief item of export is cot- 
 ton. The trade with Mexico is important. In 1882 
 the value of exports were : $18,377,452; of imports, 
 $5,099,109. There were 277 vessels of 11,465 tons 
 belonging to the several customs districts. The 
 rivers offering but temporary and uncertain chan- 
 nels of communication, the development of the in- 
 terior commerce of the State depends chiefly on the 
 railroad system. Railroad construction is making 
 wonderful progress. There were in 1882 30 railroads 
 having 5,344 m. of road in operation in Texas, 
 against 2,591 m. in 1880. — No State has made such 
 endowment for education as Texas. None were able 
 to do so because none had public lands as she has, 
 and so it happens that while the school fund is prince- 
 ly the school tax is light. The lands set apart for 
 education are: For a university, 1,221,400 acres: 
 county school domain, 2,833,920 acres ; general 
 school domain, 50,000,000 acres; total, 54,055,320 
 acres. For the present maintenance of schools 
 there is the interest on the $3,500,000 permanent 
 fund. This is yielding an annual incoiae of more than 
 $200,000, and is increasing from land sales $100,000 
 a year. The constitution'sets apart not more than J 
 the general revenue of the State and $1 poll tax for 
 the support of common schools. In the year 1880 
 this amounted to $919,880. Besides this amount 
 there is the interest on the co. school fund, $550,- 
 020. Free schools in 1882 were maintained in 159 
 counties. Of these, reports were received from only 
 132 counties ; yet in these counties there were 4,523 
 schools. These were attended by 133,667 white chil- 
 dren, and 45,465 colored. In them there were em- 
 ployed 3,258 white teachers and 991 colored, being a | 
 total of 4,249 teachers. The State has also estab- 1 
 
 lished 2 normal schools, one of which is for the 
 education of colored teachers. At these schools the 
 students are both educated and boarded without 
 charge. An agricultural college has been located near 
 Bryan, the State appropriating $200,000 and erect- 
 ing elegant buildings, in every manner adapted to 
 the uses of a first-class college. A bill has passed 
 the legislature in 1881 for the immediate establish- 
 ment of a university at Austin in keeping with its 
 princely endowment. There are numerous private 
 and church schools located in all parts of the State. 
 — There were, in 1882, 2,157 penitentiary convicts, 
 of whom 342 on the penitentiary walls at Huntsville, 
 and the balance on plantations, etc. — The State is

 senators elected for 6 years, and 90 representatives 
 elected for 2 years, who meetbiennially and are paid 
 $8 per day. The governor aud other executive "offi- 
 cers are elected for 4 years. Judicial authority is 
 vested in a supreme court of 3 judges, and 35 dis- 
 trict courts, presided over by a single judge. Gen- 
 eral elections are held on the first Tuesday after the 
 first Monday in Nov. of every alternate year, begin- 
 ning with 1872. Texas sends 11 representatives to 
 congress, and has 13 electoral votes. The public 
 debt in 1880 amounted to $4,447,700. The valuation 
 of taxable property was $300,525,407 (real estate, 
 $186,297,495; personalty, $114,227,912). State levy

 5 miles = $1,502,627.— Fort St. Louis was erected 
 near the present site of Matagorda by a company of 
 French colonists, in 1687. In 1690, the Spaniards 
 established, not far from the same spot, the mission 
 of San Francisco. The territory was loDg under the 
 government of Mexico, and shared in the internal 
 dissensions of that country. The privilege of main- 
 taining a State government of their own was refused 
 to them, and the Texans took up arms. The first 
 battle was fought Oct. 2, 1835. Hostilities continued 
 at intervals for ten years. On the 1st of March, 
 1845, Texas became one of the U. States, and its an- 
 nexation led to the Mexican war. An ordinance of 
 secession was passed Feb. 5, 1861. A new constitu- 
 tion was adopted in 1869. No census of the pop. of 
 Texas was taken while it was under Mexican rule. 
 The estimated number of inhabitants in 1806 was 
 7,000, and in 1836, 52,000. According to the U.

 m. N.E. Philadelphia and 57 m. S.W. New York. 
 Trenton is divided by Assunpink Creek, into two 
 nearly equal parts, Trenton and South Trenton. It 
 is regularly laid out, and lighted with gas. Its streets 
 are wide and well shaded, and have a grade which 
 promptly carries off surface drainage to running 
 watercourses. Several picturesque elevations in the 
 suburbs, including a fine eminence along the river, 
 are occupied by handsome mansions surrounded by 
 beautifully laid out grounds. The public buildings, 
 comprise the State capitol, a fine structure beauti- 
 fully located on an elevation overlooking the Del- 
 aware, and surrounded with spacious, well-laid-out, 
 and finely-shaded grounds ; the State normal and 
 model schools ; the Soldiers' Children's Home ; the 
 State prison ; the State lunatic asylum ; the State re- 
 form school for girls; aud a large and handsome build- 
 ing of Ohio sandstone containing the post-office and 
 U" States courts aud offices. Trenton has abt. 30 
 churches, 2 nat. and 4 other banks, a public library 
 (in addition to the State library in the capitol) ; an 
 opera house with a seating capacity of 1600 and cost- 
 ing $110,000 ; several public halls ; a street railway 
 connecting the depot with the. principal parts of the 
 city; the oldest and one of the best-equipped volunteer

 schools; 3 daily, 7 weekly and 4 monthly papers, and 
 several benevolent, educational, and charitable insti- 
 tutions,andhospitals,ect., connected with religious or- 
 ganizations. Trenton is at the head of tide-water and 
 steamboat navigation on Delaware River,and is inter- 
 sected by Delaware and Raritan Canal, one of the most 
 important water-thoroughfares in the country, con- 
 necting by continuous inland navigation the cities of 
 New York aud Philadelphia, and the latter city with 
 Baltimore. There are two lines of large propellers 
 from Trenton, which transport merchandise and 
 manufactured products to these points ; and a reg- 
 ular line of steamboats to Philadelphia on the Dela- 
 ware. The principal source of the growth and pros- 
 perity of Trenton is its manufactures. Here are the 
 extensive rolling-mill of the New Jersey Steel and 
 Iron Co., employing 600 hands and with a capital of 
 $1,000,000 ; the Trenton Iron Co.; a wire-mill; the 
 American Saw Co ; the Phoenix ironworks ; the Nat-

 Troy, N. T., acity#>, the cap. of Rensselaer co., 
 and the 29th city in pop. in the Union, is situated on 
 the E. bank of Hudson R., at the head of steamboat 
 navigation, and on the N.Y.,C.&H.R., the D.&H.C. 
 Co., and T.&B.RRs., 148 m. N. of New York, and 5 
 m. N. of Albany. It is connected with West Troy on 
 the other side of the river by an iron bridge, 1,600 ft. 
 long. It is practically the terminus of the Erie and 
 Champlain canals. A daily line of steamers and var- 
 ious lines of barges ply to New York, and lines of 
 propellers to Philadelphia and other points. The city 
 is built on a somewhat elevated plain, extending from 
 the river back to a range of hills terminating abruptly 
 abt. 1 m. E., and furnishing from their brows, eleva- 
 ted from 300 to 400 ft., a commanding and beautiful 
 view of the city and surrounding country. Mt. Ida, 
 directly in the rear of the broadest part of the city, 
 and Mt. Olympus, towards the N. part, are the emi- 
 nences most distinguished for the fine prospects which 
 they afford. Two streams, the Wynantskill and Poes- 
 tenkill, affording an extensive water power, empty 
 into the Hudson, within the limits of the city. The 
 Wynantskill has a wider valley, through which a road 
 passes, ascending to the upper level of the country. 
 The State dam across the Hudson also furnishes 
 4,000 horse-power. The city is chiefly built N. of the 
 Poestenkill, and extends along the Hudson for a dis- 
 tance of abt. 3 m. The river, having a curve here, I 
 
 has given that form, for a considerable distance, to 
 the great business street immediately on its bank. 
 With this exception, the streets are laid out straight, 
 intersecting each other, for the most part at right 
 angles. River St., is the chief thoroughfare ; and 
 near 1st, 2d, and 3d Sts., are the finest churches and 
 private residences. The savings bank, on State St., 
 is an elegant edifice costing $450,000 ; the new city 
 hall is a fine building ; and there are many handsome 
 business structures. The buildings of St. Joseph's 
 theological seminary (on Mt. Ida), are noble speci- 
 mens of Byzantine architecture. Troy is a centre of 
 extensive manuf. enterprises in iron, cotton goods, 
 stoves, railroad cars, car-wheels, shirts, bells, cable- 
 chain, etc. The first Bessemer steelworks in America 
 was established here. It has large rolling mills, 
 foundries, and blast furnaces. The Burden iron 
 works, have an annual capacity of 40,000 tons, and 
 employ 1,400 hands, producing pig iron, merchant 
 iron, horse and mule shoes, and boiler rivets. The 
 other iron manuf. of the city are carried on by more 
 than 30 firms, and consist of stoves, hollowware, 
 hot air furnaces, machinery, steam engines, scythes, 
 shovels, malleable iron, safes, butts, hinges, steel 
 springs, agricultural implements, &c. The annual 
 product of the shirt and collar (linen and paper) 
 business, which is more extensive here than any- 
 where else in the U. States, and employs more than 
 30 factories, is valued at $3,000,000, requiring the 
 labor of 6,000 hands, chiefly women. The largest 
 manuf. of mathematical instruments in the U. States 
 is in this city. The total annual value of the manuf. 
 of Troy is abt. $12,000,000. The lumber trade is im- 
 portant. Troy has 8 nat. 3 private and 3 savings 
 banks, abt. 50 churches, a splendid Masonic temple, 
 the celebrated Rensselaer polytechnic institute, a 
 Roman Catholic seminary for the education of priests, 
 academies, a female seminary, a fine high school, 11 
 newspapers, and periodicals, of which 4 daily, a 
 well equipped hospital, the Marshall infirmary, with 
 an insane asylum attached, 2 orphan asylums, and 
 various benevolent institutions. The city is divided 
 into 13 wards ; it is governed by a mayor and aboard 
 of 26 aldermen, and has an efficient fire department.

 Utah, a W. Territory, bounded N. and N.E. by 
 Idaho and Wyoming, E. by Colorado, S. by Arizona, 
 and W. by Nevada. It is situated between lat. 37' 
 and 42° N. and Ion. 109° and 114° W. The length 
 from N. to S. is abt. 150 m. the breadth 280 m., and 
 the area 82.190 sq. m. Utah is divided into two parts 
 by the Wahsatch Mts., which cross it from N.E. to 
 S.W. The W. part belongs to the Great Basin, its 
 waters having no outlet to the ocean, while the E. 
 partis drained by the Colorado R. of the West. The 
 surface is elevated ; the valleys lie from 4,000 to 6,000 
 ft. above tlie sea, and the mountains attain an alti- 
 tude of from 6,000 to upward of 13,000 ft., the high- 
 est peaks rising above the line of perpetual snow. 
 The region E. of the Wahsatch range has a greater 
 number of streams (which, however, nearly all flow 
 through deep and precipitous canons and are not 
 generally available for irrigation) and is more rugged 
 and mountainous than that W. of it. The Uintah 
 Mts., extend E. from the Wahsatch range along the 
 S. border of Wyoming, and occupy a large area. The 
 Roan or Book Mts., lie partly in Utah and partly in 
 Colorado, between the Grand and White Rs. The 
 Little Mts.. are W. of Green R., and extend N.W. 
 and S.E. between White and Uintah Rs., joining the 
 Wahsatch range. The Sierra Lasal is S.E. of Grand 
 R. near the E. boundary, and S. of it are the Sierra 
 Abajo and Orejas del Oso. The San Juan range and 
 Siena Pauoche are near the S. boundary, the former 
 W. and the latter E. of the Colorado R. The princi- 
 pal mountain summits, with their elevation, are Mt. 
 Tohkwano (13,500 ft.), Hayden Peak (13,500), Dawes 
 Peak (13,300), Gilbert's Peak (13,250), the Twin Peaks 
 (12,000), Belknap (11,894), Mt. Baldy (11,730) and 
 Lone Peak (10,713). The S.E. portion of the territory 
 is less mountainous than the N.E., consisting of ex- 
 tensive undulating plateaus. W. of the Wahsatch 
 range the country consists of a series of disconnected 
 valleys, generally having a N. and S direction, 
 formed bv ridges and mountain ranges, among which 
 are the Thomas, Iron, Guyot, Goshoot, Pijarajabi, 
 Oquirrh, and Raft River mountains. The most thickly 
 settled portion of Utah is along the W. base of the 
 
 Wahsatch Mts., which reach their greatest altitude 
 near Salt Lake City. The habitable country comprises 
 a succession of beautiful valleys, enclosed by huge 
 mountains of imposing grandeur. In some instances 
 access is gained from valley to valley by deep, nar- 
 row gorges or canons, through which wagon roads 
 and more recently railroads, have been constructed 
 at enormous expense. Down those passes dash 
 and gurgle beautiful streams, which frequently 
 abound in trout and other fish. Great Salt Lake, the 
 "DeadSeaof America," situated a few miles N.W. of 
 Salt Lake City, has no known outlet. The water is so 
 saline as to render it exceedingly buoyant. Bathers 
 find it more difficult to sink than to swiin in it. Flow- 
 ing into it from the S. is the River Jordan, which 
 drains Lake Utah. Upon the N. the Bear R. from 
 Idaho and other smaller streams discharge their 
 waters into the lake. The district E. of the mountains 
 is drained by the Green aud Grand Rs., which unite 
 to form the C lorado. None of the streams of the 
 Territory are navigable. There are several groups of 
 hot springs, with a temperature ranging from 90° to 
 136°. Upon the Uintah aud Wahsatch Mts., are heavy 
 forests ; the timber line is at the height of 11,000 ft. 
 Among the trees most abundant are the fir, spruce, 
 pine, cedar, maple, oak, mountain mahogany, quak- 
 ing ash, etc. The Great Basin is almost destitute of 
 wood, but trees planted upon the irrigated lands 
 grow rapidly. The soil is exceedingly rich and ad- 
 mirably adapted to agricultural purposes. The laud 
 has, however, to be irrigated to render it productive. 
 The water for this purpose is supplied from the lakes, 
 rivers and rivulets with which the country abounds. 
 For this purpose canals are necessary and are con- 
 structed at greater or less expense, according to 
 their extent and the nature of the ground where they 
 are located. Like the other territories and states lying 
 between the Rocky Mts. and the Sierra Nevada, 
 Utah has a healthy, mild, but exceedingly dry, cli- 
 mate. The mean annual temperature E. of the Wah- 
 satch Mts. is from 38° to 44°, aud W. of that great 
 range from 46° to 52°. The rainfall averages abt. 16 
 inches, but around the Great Salt Lake approaches 
 20 inches. Rain is most abundant in the valleys from 
 October to April ; the remainder of the year is dry 
 and hot. Spring opens in May and cold weather rarely 
 sets in before November. The leading and most 
 profitable farm products are wheat, barley, oats, 
 corn, peas, beans, potatoes and sugar cane. The 
 yield of wheat to the acre ranges from 15 to 50 bush, 
 and, in exceptional cases, even 60 bush, have been 
 realized. The average yield will probably reach 20 
 bush. In regard to potatoes, both as relates to the 
 yield per acre and the excellence of quality, Utah 
 stands withouta rival. Thefruit crop isof increasing 
 importance. Apples, peaches, pears, plums, apricots, 
 cherries and grapes of fair quality are raised in abun- 
 dance. A brisk trade is done in dried fruits, for 
 which a ready market is found in Chicago. Grapes 
 flourish best in S. Utah, where wine making is a grow- 
 ing industry. Some progress has been made in silk 
 raising, for which the climate is admirably adapted. 
 The principal products for the year 1880, according 
 to the census, were 217.140 bush, of barley, 163,342 
 of corn, 418,082 of oats, and 1,169,199 of wheat. The 
 farm animals were 38,131 horses, 2,898 mules, 3,968 
 working oxen, 32,768 milch cows, 58,680 other cattle, 
 233,121 sheep, and 17,168 hogs. The approximate 
 average yearly wool clip for several seasons has been 
 abt. 1,500,000 pounds. A proportion of this is con- 
 sumed by the local woolen mills, while the surplus 
 finds a ready sale in market carts. — The mineral re- 
 sources of Utah are considerable and embrace the 
 ores of the principal metals and many of the rarer 
 minerals, chiefly lead, silver, gold, and copper. The 
 principal obstacles that have retarded the progress 
 of mining, milling and smelting have been and still

 are the great distance from markets for her mineral 
 products and the high railroad tariffs. These are es- 
 pecial drawbacks to the mines from which are mostly 
 taken the baser metals, such as lead — perhaps the 
 leading mineral product of Utah. In 1881, according 
 to the report of the director of the miut, the pro- 
 duction of gold was $145,000, of silver $6,400,000. 
 There are several immense deposits of iron ore, very 
 rich, and equal to the best > n the continent. The 
 principal deposit is in the S. portion of Utah, in 
 Iron co., and is within 50 m. of the Utah Southern 
 extension railroad. Close to the iron is an extensive 
 body of excellent coal. There are numerous large 
 bodies of coal in different parts of the Territory, sev- 
 eral of which are either owned or controlled by the 
 Union Pacific railroad company. — In 1880, accord- 
 ing to the census, there were iu Utah 640 manuf. 
 establishments, employing 2,495 hands ; capital in- 
 vested $2,656,657 ; wages paid during the year 
 $858,855; value of materials, $2,561,737; value of 
 productions, $4,324,992. There were in 1882 10 rail- 
 roads having 908 m. of road in operation within the 
 Territory. The present school system, established by 
 law of Feb. 20, 1874, is liberally sustained by the 
 people. From the general school tax of 3 mills on 
 the dollar an annual revenue of $65,000 is derived. 
 The levying of additional school taxation is left to 
 local option iu the school districts. The percentage 
 of school population — children between the age of 6 
 and 16 years in regular attendance is 47. This pro- 
 portion is exclusive of that in attendance at private 
 schools, of which there is quite a large number. The 
 higher institutions of learning are the Deseret uni- 
 versity, the Brigham Young academy at Provo, the 
 St. Mark's school, the Rocky Mountain conference 
 seminary, and Morgan college. — The Territory is 
 divided into 24 cos., viz.: Beaver, fiox Elder, Cache, 
 Davis, Emery, Garfield, Iron, Juab, Kane, Millard, 
 Morgan, Pi Ute, Rich, Salt Lake, San Juan, San Pete 
 Sevier, Summit, Tooele, Uintah, Utah, Wasatch, 
 Washington, Weber. The principal towns are Salt 
 Lake City (the cap.), Ogdeu, Spanish Fort, Brigham 
 City, Beaver City, and Corinne City. — A governor, 
 secretary, and supreme court judges are appointed 
 by the president, and there is a legislative body, 
 consisting of 13 councillors and 26 representatives. 
 In 1881, the assessed value of taxable property was 
 $25,579,234. — The mass of the people are Mormons, 
 or Latter day Saints, who were the pioneers of this 
 entire region, having come here in 1847, under the 
 leadership of the late Brigham Young, when the 
 Territory, then belonging to Mexico, was a desert, 
 inhabited only by a few half-naked indians. They 
 constitute probably over 5-6 of the pop., and are 
 mainly engaged in agriculture, stock-raising and 
 manufacturing. They are orderly, thrifty and indus- 
 trious. The non-Mormon pop. are mostly engaged in 
 mining, merchandising and general business. Utah 
 was ceded to the U. States in 1848, and a territorial 
 government was established, Sept. 9,1850. The revela- 
 tion of polygamy was not adopted by the Mormons 
 until Aug. 29, 1852. They now confront the move- 
 ments made against it through general public agen- 
 cies and in congress with undaunted determination 
 and unabated zeal in seeking proselytes. Within 
 their own Territory, the adherents of the Mormon 
 system are kept under the strictest discipline and in 
 a condition of constant readiness for united action 
 to resist the effect of any measure that may be direct- 
 ed against the institution which they hold to be par- 
 ticular, while their missionaries are active abroad 
 gaining converts and seeing to their transportation 
 to Utah. The missionary organization of the Mor- 
 mons is one of their strongest arms, and is the insti- 
 tution to which more, perhaps, than to any other 
 single instrumentality, they owe the solid strength 
 which they have manifested too often and too con- 
 
 stantly against all hostile demonstrations. The mag- 
 nates of the church decide how many missionaries 
 shall go forth ; the number is apportioned as is 
 thought best, and nominations are made by the 375 
 presidents and bishops, to be confirmed by the popu- 
 lar vote of all the brethren gathered at the great 
 April and October conferences in Salt Lake City. 
 Apparently, no discrimination is exercised in making 
 the nominations, and no appeal is admitted from the 
 appointment. Every missionary goes at his own 
 charges, and no provision is contemplated by the 
 Church for his family or his business during his ab- 
 sence. In 1880, the semi-centennial year of the Mor- 
 mon church, the number of elders sent out as mis- 
 sionaries was 216 ; iu 1881, it was 189, besides 79 who 
 were sent to Arizona. Estimating the average dura- 
 tion of an elder's time to be two years, we have a 
 total of about four hundred Mormon missionaries 
 abroad at any given date. The number of converts 
 gathered in by these missionaries can not be so ex- 
 actly calculated. About 28,740 wei e brought in be- 
 tween 1840 and 1860. Within the next decade about 
 25,000 sailed from Europe to Salt Lake City and 
 about the same number between 1870 and 1882. The 
 whole number from the first shipload, in 1840 to 1882, 
 may thus be estimated at abt. 85,000. The annual 
 increase from emigration is not far from 2,000. Pop. 
 in 1850, 11,380; in 1860, 40,273; in 1870, 86,044; in 
 1880, 143,963 (of whom 74,509 males, and 69,454 fe- 
 males, 99,969 natives and 43,994 of foreign birth, 
 142,423 whites, 232 colored, 501 Chinese, and 807 
 Indians).

 — a lake in above co., in lat. 40° 15' N., Ion. 111° 45' 
 W. Its altitude is 4,475 ft. above sea level ; its length 
 from N. to S. is 25 m.; its extreme width 13 m.; its 
 area 150 sq. m. It is the largest body of fresh water 
 in the territory, and has no island. The valley in 
 which it lies is part of a great trough formed by the 
 uplift of the Wahsatch range of mts. at the E. and 
 the Oquirrh, Lake, and Tintic ranges at the W. The 
 eastern range is the loftier, and ail the tributaries of 
 the lake come from that side. Its outlet is the river 
 Jordon, which is45 m. in length, and flows N. into 
 Great Salt Lake. Utah Lake abounds in trout and 
 other fish, and is visited by a great variety of water 
 fowl. 
 
 Utahs,or UTES,a tribe of Indians of the Shoshone 
 family, living in N. Mex., Utah, Col. and Nev. They 
 practise hunting and fishing, and also live largely 
 upon berries, roots, and herbs, and possess a few 
 horses, but rarely engage in agriculture. They num- 
 ber abt. 15,000, and sold in 1872 most of their lands 
 to the U. S. government, retaining a large reserva- 
 tion in the S.W. corner of Colorado. The men wear 
 long braided cues, while the hair of the women is 
 short. Most of the work is made by women, and 
 the Indians in some bands sell their wives and 
 children to neighboring tribes. They are filthy 
 in their habits, and their arms range from the origi- 
 nal club, bow, and lance to good rifles.

 Vermont (from the French vert green, and 
 mont mountain), one of the New England States, 
 bounded N. by Canada, E. by New Hampshire, S. 
 by Massachusetts, and W. by "New York. It is situa- 
 ted between lat. 42° 44' and'45° N., Ion. 71° 33' and 
 73° 25' W. The length from N. to S. is 158 m., the 
 breadth between 40 and 90 m., and the area 9,135 sq. 
 m. The Green Mts. extend through the whole length 
 of Vt., but above the 44th parallel it divides into two 
 chains, one maintaining the same direction (N. 
 by E.) with the lower portiou, and extending into 
 Canada; the other, turning N.E., extends to the 
 N.H. line, and finally loses itself in the Canadian 
 highlands on the W. 'border of Me. This last range, 
 beginning at Killington Peak, forms the watershed 
 between the affluent of the upper Conn, and the 
 streams flowing N. or W. into Lake Champlain, and 
 the lower portion fulfills a similar office between the 
 waters flowing into the Hudson and those tributary 
 to the Conn. The Green Mts. are not granitic, at least 
 in the surface-rocks, aud their rounded, grassy sum- 
 mits afford a marked contrast to the sharp, cold, aud 
 bare summits, of the White Mts. in the adjacent 
 State. None of the summits attain the height of 
 some of the White Mts., and their is a considerable 
 diversity of statement in regard to the actual height 
 of the principal summits. Prof. Guyot gives the fol- 
 lowing figures in regard to the higher summits : 
 Mount Mansfield, three summits, the " Chin " and 
 "Nose," 4,430 and 4,094 ft,; the " Forehead " or 
 South Peak, 3,934 ft.; Killington Peak, 4,221ft.; Kil- 
 lington Dome (Pico). 3,954 ft,; Camel's Hump, 4,088 
 ft,; Equinox Mt., 3,872 ft,; Shrewsbury Peak, 3,845 
 ft.; Green Peak of Eolus Mt., 3,148 ft.; Lincoln Mt,, 
 4,078 ft.; Mount Sterling, 3.700ft,; Hogback Mt., 3,- 
 64Sft.; Jay Peak, 4,018 ft.; Bald Mt., 3.124 ft. Mount 
 Ascutney is a detached mountain 3,320 ft. high, and 
 commands a noble landscape. The E. part'of the 
 State is drained by the Connecticut R. and its numer- 
 ous affluents ; the N. portion sends some small 
 streams to Lake Memphremagog, but the principal 
 rivers of the W. part of the State, the Missisquoi, 
 Lamoille, Winooski or Onion R., and Otter Creek, 
 with theirtributaries, are feeders of Lake Champlain, 
 while Hubbardton Creek and Poultuey R. fall into 
 the S arm or extension of the lake. The Hoosac, 
 Battenkiil, aud other small tributaries of the Hudson 
 drain the S.W. corner of the State. Besides Lake 
 Champlain, which forms so large a part of the W. 
 boundary of the State, and Lake Memphremagog, 
 
 which is partly in Vermont and partly in Canada, 
 there are nearly 100 smaller lakes or ponds, some 
 of them of considerable size and beauty, in the State. 
 The principal are Willoughby, Seymour, Maidstone, 
 Great Trout Pond, Dummer, Bombazine, and Austin. 
 In portions of the State medicinal springs of recog- 
 nized value are found. Those of Alburg, Highgate, 
 Clarendon, Newbury, Williamstown, Hartford, Bruns- 
 wick aud Panton being best known. Their medicinal 
 properties are derived from gaseous and not mineral 
 substances, and have been found principally effica- 
 cious in cutaneous and liver complaints. The climate 
 of Vt. is, in general, marked by w ide extremes ; the 
 winters are cold and long, the summers short and, 
 for a few days at a time, hot ; but there are few more 
 healthful climates in the U. States. The isothermal 
 of 44° annual mean temperature intersects the State 
 almost diagonally, entering from the N.W. corner 
 and dipping down to near the central portion of the 
 State on the E. In the N.E. the mean annual temper- 
 ature is 40° ; in the S.W. ;.nd S. it is abt. 46°.— The 
 geological formation of Vt. consists chiefl3 T of those 
 comprised in the Azoic and Silurian divisions. The 
 Devonian formation is represented by a band of lime- 
 stone abt. 1 m. wide and 30 m. long, on the E. side 
 of the Green Mts. The entire State shows a drift 
 formation, and alluvial deposits are found along the 
 banks of most of the streams. The Green Mts. are 
 principally composed of gneiss and schists, their W. 
 base being overlaid by a belt of quartz rock upon 
 which rests a bed of crystalline limestone. In the val- 
 ley of Lake Champlain the rocks are lower Silurian 
 and Primordial. This portion was formerly covered 
 by the waters of the ocean, and great quantities of 
 sea shells are found in the clay banks of the lake. 
 In 1849, the remains of a fossil whale, 14 ft. long, 
 were found imbedded in a clay bed, 8 ft. below the 
 surface of the ground, while excavating for the 
 Rutland railroad in Charlotte, abt. H m. E. of the 
 lake. Numerous and valuable deposits are found in 
 connection with the various formation. The copper 
 mines of Vt, rank second in importance to any in the 
 country. Those in Orange co. yielded in 1880, 28,037 
 tons of ore valued at §469,495. Manganese, hematite 
 iron ore, native gold and lead are found in greater 
 or less abundance within the entire limits of the tal- 
 co.=e slate region. Chromic iron is also found in con- 
 siderable quantities in the serpentine rocks in the 
 N. part of the State. In the W. and S.W. portion 
 some of the most remarkable beds of porcelain clay 
 or kaolin in the world have beeu discovered and are 
 being successfully worked. In her limestone forma- 
 tions Vt. is best known. Extensive quarries of white 
 statuary marble, equal to the famous Carrara, varie- 
 gated and veined marbles of every shade from the 
 deepest black to the most delicate flesh color, unsur- 
 passed in richness and variety are already success- 
 fully developed on the W. side of the Green Mts. 
 Valuable quarries of argillaceous slate, superior to 
 those of Wales ; beds of soapstone aud freestone fol- 
 lowing the genera! trend of the stratified rocks 
 through the State, and granite, syenite and sandstone, 
 highly valuable for building purposes, are all abun- 
 dant in different parts of the State. — The meadow 
 and arable lands of the State are generally fertile, 
 and, being largely underlaid with a disintegrating 
 limestone, yield good crops to the careful tiller ; the 
 mountain slopes, where not covered with timber, fur- 
 nish rich and nutritions pasturage to the horses, cat- 
 tle, and sheep, which are kept in large numbers and 
 furnish a considerable share of the wealth of the 
 State. The forest trees are the evergreens — hemlock, 
 fir, and spruce, and some pine on the mountains, 
 oak, hickory, beech, birch, elm, sugar, rock, and red 
 maple, butternut, basswood, tulip tree, etc., on the 
 lower slopes of the hills, and cedar and juniper in 
 the swamps. The sugar maple is the most abundant

 of the forest trees of the State, and from its sap a 
 a larger quantity of maple sugar and syrup is made 
 than iuany other State in the Union. Four-fifths of 
 the land in the State are in farms, and nearly three- 
 fourths of this are under cultivation. The principal 
 prod, in 1880, according to the census of that year, 
 were 1,801,600 bush, of corn, 314,325 of wheat, 102,- 
 456 of rye, 3,185,536 of oats, 306,574 of barley, 348,- 
 400 of buckwheat, 3,954,740 of potatoes, and 1,182,- 
 930 tons of hay. The farm animals were 75,215 horses, 
 283 mules, 18,868 working oxen, 217,033 milch cows, 
 167,204 other cattle, 439,870 sheep, and 76,384 hogs. 
 —In 1880 there were in Vt. 2,874 manuf. es- 
 tablishments, employing 15,540 hands, capital in- 
 vested §23,255,224, wages paid during the year $5,- 
 164,479, value of materials $18,330,677, value of 
 prod. $31,354,356. Of the most important manu- 
 factures may be mentioned the dressing of lumber, 
 Burlington ranking third among the lumber marts of 
 the U. States; woolen and cotton goods there areabt. 
 75 mills; tin, copper and sheet iron ware, scales, the 
 works at St. Johusbury being among the most ex- 
 tensive in the world; musical instruments, agricul- 
 tural implements, carriages and wagons, machinery, 
 butter and cheese, flouring and grist-mill products, 
 and several mining and quarrying establishments. A 
 considerable foreign commerce is carried on with 
 Canada through Burlington, which is the port of en- 
 try of the U. States customs district of Vermont. 
 The value of imports for the year 18S0 was $6,484,- 
 684, of exports $1,801,529. Tbere were entered in the 
 foreign trade 982 vessels of 126,755 tons, cleared 949 
 vessels of 123,695 tons. The total number of vessels 
 belonging to the district was 35, of 4,115 tons. The 
 total extent of railroads in the State amounted to 
 614 m. in 1870, and 915 m. in 1882.— A compulsory 
 school law was passed in 1867. Every child of good 
 health, between the ages of 8 and 14 years, is re- 
 quired to attend school for at least three months in 
 each year. From 5 to 20 years is the legal school age. 
 In 1880 the number of school districts was 2,350, 
 children in the State, 92,831, pupils eurolled 77,521, 
 teachers 4,452, expenditures for schools $496,169. 
 There are three colleges — viz., Middlebury college, 
 Norwich university (military) and the university of 
 Vermont and State agricultural college. There 
 were also 19 incorporated academies, and 19 graded 
 schools. The charitable and penal institutions are : 
 The Vermont asylum for the insane, at Brattle- 
 borough, established in 1834, the reform school, 
 at Waterbury, established in 1865, and the State 
 prison, established in 1807, at Windsor. — The 
 State is divided into 14 cos., viz.: Addison, Ben- 
 nington, Caledonia, Chittenden, Essex, Franklin, 
 Grand Isle, Lamoille, Orange, Orleans, Rutland, Wash- 
 ington, Windham and Windsor. The principal cities 
 and towns are Montpelier (the cap.), Burlington, 
 Bennington, Vergennes, Springfield and Bellows 
 Falls. The general assembly, which meets bieuuially, 
 consists of a senate of 30 members and a house of 
 representatives of 249 members (one from each town 
 and city). The governor (salary $1,000) and other ex- 
 ecutive officers are elected for a term of two years. 
 The supreme courts consists of six judges, chosen by 
 the legislature, and receiving a salary of $2,500each. 
 There are also county courts for each of the 14 coun- 
 ties, courts of chancery and probate courts. Justices 
 of the peace are elected for each town. A prohibi- 
 tory liquor law is in force, and the liquor-seller is re- 
 sponsible for damages done by an intoxicated person. 
 Vt. sends 2 representatives to congress, and has 4 
 electoral votes. The State debt in 1882 was $155,500. 
 The valuation of taxable property (made in accord- 
 ance with the "act to equalize taxation " passed in 
 1881), was $164,063,669.— Champlain, with two other 
 French officers, traversed a portion of this territory 
 in 1609. The first settlement was made in 1724, at 
 
 Fort Dummer, within the limits of the present town 
 of Brattleborough. A settlement was begun on the 
 E. shore of Lake Champlain by the French in 1731. 
 New Hampshire claimed jurisdiction over the terri- 
 tory, and Gov. Wentworth made grants of land to 
 settlers in 138 townships. New York also based a 
 claim upon the grants of King Charles II., and tried 
 to exert her authority. Attempts to dispossess them 
 of their lands were resisted by the settlers, who ap- 
 plied the "beech seal" (whipping with beechen 
 rods) to the New York officers, until none could be 
 found willing to serve writs. The " Green Mountain 
 Boys " thus defended themselves for several years. 
 An amicable adjustment was finally made by the 
 payment to New York of $30,000 in settlement for 
 all her claims. In Jan., 1777, a general convention 
 proclaimed that the territory known as the New 
 Hampshire Grants was of right a free and independ- 
 ent jurisdiction, to be henceforth called by the 
 name of " New Connecticut, alias Vermont." Dur- 
 ing the revolutionary war the Green Mountain boys 
 bore an honorable and conspicuous part. Vt. was ad- 
 mitted to the Union on the 4th of March, 1791. Pop.

 Memphis,Tenn.,andou the V.&M., the V.,S.&P.,and 
 the M.V.&S.I.RRs., 44 m. W. of Jackson. It has a 
 regular line of packets plying the Mississippi R. to 
 St. Louis, a wkly packet to Memphis, a tri-wkly mail 
 line to New Orleans, and a large fleet of boats plying 
 on the tributaries. It is the first city in size and im- 
 portance in the State and the second port of import- 
 ance on the Mississippi R. between St. Louis and 
 New Orleans. Vieksburg is built on a range of hills 
 that skirt the Yazoo and Mississippi Valley from 
 Memphis, and touches the river-bank here. It is 
 therefore the outlet for the products of the Missis- 
 sippi delta and the fertile valleys of the Yazoo, Sun- 
 flower, and tributary streams. The leading staple is 
 cotton, and the commerce of the city depends mainly 
 upon the success of the cotton-crop. Vieksburg has 
 a merchants' and cotton exchange, 3 banks, 2 daily, 
 2 wkly and 1 monthly paper, a cotton-seed oil-mill 
 which ships a large amount of cotton-seed oil, oil- 
 meal, and oil-cake to Europe, and several other mills 
 and factories. A short distance beyond the city limits 
 is the national cemetery, in which are interred 17,000 
 
 Union soldiers, and between the cemetery and the 
 city is a stone-quarry giving employment to 150 or 
 200 men. Vieksburg was strongly fortified in 1861. In 
 Jan., 1861, it was attacked by the U. States naval 
 forces from Memphis and New Orleans, but without 
 success. In April, 1863, a naval attack was combined 
 with the land forces under Gen. Grant who, with a 
 close siege and continual assaults, compelled a sur- 
 render, July 4, 1863. Vieksburg was situated on the 
 E. bank of the river, with a long, narrow neck of 
 land forming a sort of peninsula opposite the city. 
 During the siege in 1863, Gen. Grant attempted to 
 divert the channel of the river through the peninsu- 
 la abt. 3 m. below the city, but failed. On April 26, 
 1876, the water broke through the peninsula, which 
 had been gradually wearing away for years and had 
 narrowed to 153 ft. in width, forming a cut-off directly 
 opposite the city, so that Vieksburg is now upon a 
 lake with an island in front. Pop. 11,814.

 12 m. N.E. Bridgeton, 34 m. S.E. Philadelphia, and 
 115 m. S.W. New York City. Founded in 1861 and 
 regularly laid out on a plot a mile square. Vinelaud 
 has now 10 churches, 4 graded schools, 1 high school, 
 a public library of 3,500 volumes, 2 public halls, 2 daily 
 and 2 wkly papers, gas works, a volunteer fire de- 
 partment, and a large number of first class merchan- 
 dise houses. The principal avenues of the city are 100 
 ft. wide and the others 60 ft., and all are bordered with 
 double rows of handsome shade trees. The private 
 residences are generally handsome and surrounded 
 with flower gardens and vineyards. The principal 
 manuf . are 5 shoe factories, 2 foundries, 3 shirt factor- 
 ies, 1 planing mill, 2 plow factories, 1 cap factory, 1 but- 
 ton factory, 1 glove factory, and a paper box factory. 
 Immense quantities of fruit are produced in the vicin- 
 ity, shipments from Viueland alone reach as high as 
 ten car loads of fruit per day. The next export of im- 
 portance is shoes, which with a large number of other 
 articles, make the shipping trade here quite exten- 
 sive. The temperance policy of the place, its mild and 
 healthful climate, the abundance of superior fruit 
 produced, and the general beauty of the town, serve 
 to attract settlers here from all parts of the world.

 Virginia, a S.E. State, bounded W. and N.W. 
 by Kentucky and West Virginia, N.E. and E. by 
 Maryland, Chesapeake Bay and the Atlantic Ocean, 
 and S. by North Carolina and Tennessee. It is situa- 
 ted between lat. 36° 30' and 39° 40' N. and Ion. 75° 
 25' and 83° 34' W. The extreme length is 425 m., the 
 breadth 205 m. and the area, 40,125 sq. m. By its 
 natural configuration, Va. presents 6 nearly parallel 
 divisions extending in successive gradation across 
 the State from N.E. to S.W., and differing in respect 
 to geology, climate, soil and productions. The Tide- 
 water country is the alluvial and diluvial plain in the 
 E. portion of the State, and is divided by the Chesa- 
 peake Bay and the large tidal rivers flow into it into 
 nine primary and many subordinate peninsulas. No 
 part of this region is elevated more than 100 ft. 
 above the sea, and considerable tracts are low and 
 marshy. Middle Va., a triangular tract extending 
 from a N. and S. line running through Richmond to 
 the foot-hills of Southwest Mt., is a wide undula- 
 ting plain of no great elevation, through which the 
 many rivers which traverse it have cut theirchannels 
 to a considerable depth and are bordered by alluvial 
 bottom-lands. Piedmont includes both slopes of South- 
 west Mtn., and an undulating plain, broken into 
 valleys in some portions, extending to the fcot-hills 
 of the Blue Ridge. It has many small streams, and 
 its hills are rounded and fertile. It occupies a belt 
 of territory from 18 to 28 m. in width, and extending 
 from N.E. to S. W. through the State. The Blue Midge 
 hountry is a still narrower belt, parallel with the pre- 
 ceding, including both slopes of the Blue Ridge 
 Mts., and forming the E. wall of the Valley of Vir- 
 ginia. The summits of the Blue Ridge rise to a 
 height of 2,500 to 3,000 ft.; they are mostly dome-like 
 and between them stretch, especially in the S., broad 
 plateaus. The Valley of Virginia is a part of the 
 great Appalachian Valley, lying between the Blue 
 Ridge on the E. and the Kittatiuny or Endless Mts., 
 on the W. It is a broad belt of rolling country, from 
 1,200 to 1,600 ft. above the sea, diversified by hills and 
 valleys, with many winding streams of water. Its 
 soil, underlaid with disintegrating limestones, shales, 
 
 slates, and clays, is very fertile, and it is sheltered by 
 the mountains on either side from chilling winds. 
 Appatachia is the region covered by that part of the 
 Kittatinny Mtn. range (which has here a score of 
 local names) traversing Virginia. It is made up of a 
 number of parallel • mountain chains, with trough 
 like valleys between them, the mountains often run- 
 ning 50 m. or more in an unbroken, single, straight 
 lofty ridge, with a narrow and equally uniform valley 
 alongside ; sometimes the mountains slope gently 
 down and the valleys widen. Some of the sharp bold 
 ridges rise to a considerable height ; Elliot's Knob 
 is nearly 4,200 ft., Warm Spring and Alleghany Mtn., 
 abt. 3,500 each. Two points of the Blue Ridge are 
 said to be still higher — The Balsam Mtn., in Grayson 
 co., 5,700 ft., and a point near the Tennessee line, 
 5,530 ft. Of the numerous rivers which drain the 
 State, six-sevenths belong to the Atlantic system, 
 and one-seventh to the Ohio and its tributaries ; 
 and of the latter, a part, as the Holston and Clinch, 
 are affluents of the Tennessee ; a part, as the Lousia, 
 Russell, and Tug Forks, of the Big Sandy ; while the 
 Kanawha or New River flows into the Ohio directly. 
 Of the streams flowing into Chesapeake Bay, the 
 principal are the Potomac, the Piauketank, the 
 York, and the James, one of the largest rivers in 
 the State. The Chowan, the Roanoke, and other 
 streams fall into Albemarle Sound in North Carolina; 
 and the Yadkin joins the Great Pedee and falls 
 into the Atlantic in S.C. Va. is not a country of 
 lakes. The largest in the State is Lake Drummond 
 in Dismal Swamp ; but, aside from the great Chesa- 
 peake Bay, which forms so large a portion of its 
 coast-line, it has a number of small bays and exten- 
 sive estuaries at the mouths of its rivers. — Timber 
 is very abundant. The hickory, white and black oak, 
 ash, chestnut, beech, maple, cedar, pine, etc., grow 
 to an enormous size. When oak lands are cleared a 
 growth of pines springs up, and when pines are re- 
 moved oaks take their places. Fields once cultivated 
 if left to themselves, are quicklv covered with pines. 
 The last census reported 8,294,734 acres of woodland 
 upon farms. On the W. borders of the great valley 
 of Va. are many mineral springs, some of which 
 are celebrated for their medicinal eifccts. Among 
 the most noted are the Buffalo Lilhia in Mecklen- 
 burg co.; Orkney in Shenandoah ; Raw ley in Rock- 
 ingham ; Stribling and Variety in Augusta ; Rock- 
 bridge Alum, Jordan Alum, Cold Sulphur, and 
 Baths in Rockbridge ; Bath Alum, W r al!awatoola, 
 Warm, Hot, and Healing in Bath ; Sweet Chalybeate 
 in Alleghany; Blue Ridge, Coyners, and Daggers in 
 Botetourt ; Alleghany, Montgomery White Sulphur, 
 and Yellow Sulphur in Montgomery ;and New River 
 White Sulphur in Giles. — Va. is rich in minerals 
 which are as yet mostly undeveloped. They comprise 
 gold, iron, copper, lead, zinc, semi-bituminous and 
 bituminous coal, granite. limestone, marble, freestone, 
 greenstone, brown stone, brick, and fireclays, 
 glass sand, plumbago, manganese, gypsum, mica, 
 granite, slate, salt, etc. Gold is found in a belt from 
 15 to 25 m. wide and 200 m. long, extending from 
 Washington to Halifax Court House. Numerous 
 mines have been opened, but their working has not 
 been found very profitable. A variety of iron ores 
 abound in every natural division of Va., excepting 
 the tidewater. The great iron belt, in which are 
 found vast quantities of red and brown ores, is in- 
 cluded in the Appalachian country. On the slopes 
 of the Kittatinny Mts. are found solid masses of 
 hematite iron ore, extending to unknown depths 
 and presenting the appearance of a thick stratum 
 between the sandstone and limestone rocks that 
 form the mountains. Among the foot hills at the 
 W. base of the Blue Ridge are remarkable deposits 
 of brown hematite or hydrated peroxide of iron, 
 which extends nearly 300 m., and whose ore is the

 best quality. The production of iron ore for the 
 year 1880 was 169,683 tons valued at $384,331. Coal 
 abounds in several parts of the State. It is mined in 
 Henrico, Powhatan, Chesterfield, Montgomery and 
 Wythe cos. The products for 1880 was 40,520 tons 
 valued at $93,837. — The climate is on Ihe whole 
 mild and salubrious. The tidewater country has 
 long and hot summers, mild winters, and is not 
 altogether free from malarious diseases. Its mean 
 annual temperature varies from 56 to 60 degrees. 
 From here westward the mean annual temperature 
 decreases, until it sinks down in the higher parts of 
 the Blue Ridge to 48 decrees. In the Appalachian 
 country it rises to over 52 degrees. The rain-fall 
 averages, in the larger part of the State from 
 40 to 44 inches. — The soils of the first or alluvial 
 bottoms deposited by the rivers and estuaries is of 
 perpetual fertility. The second bottoms are of ex- 
 cellent quality, yielding large crops, but are improv- 
 ed by the use of marls or other fertilizers when they 
 have been long cultivated. The slope or third ter- 
 race, running back to the watershed or head of tide- 
 water, is thinner and less fertile, but can be made 
 very productive by the use of the marls and shells 
 which are close at hand. The ridge-lands of the tide- 
 water region are always level and very poor, but by 
 the use of manures can be made to produce fair 
 crops. Middle Va. has much good and fertile land, 
 but it has also much very poor and steriie soil. The 
 soils of the Piedmont region, are very fertile, as are 
 also portions of the Blue Ridge country ; but where 
 the sandstones prevail on the W. slope, they are 
 sandy and poor. The greater part of the soils of the 
 Valley of Va. are very rich and productive. This 
 has been called the " garden of America." The val- 
 leys in the Appalachian region are generally rich and 
 productive, but many of the ridges and mountain 
 slopes are sterile. The great staple product of Va. 
 from the earliest settlement is tobacco. The wheat 
 of the State makes flour which for many years has 
 monopolized the tropical markets, because it keeps 
 better than any other. Corn is raised all over the 
 State. Vegetables and fruits, called trucky, con- 
 stitute a very large and increasingly valuable item 
 in the products of the tidewater counties. In 
 this division also the oyster business gives em- 
 ployment to thousands of men in catching and 
 preparing for market, and canning these bivalves, 
 considered the most delicious in the world. The 
 chief products for the year 1880, according to 
 the census were 7,822,504 bush, of wheat, 5.333,- 
 181 of oats, 29,106,661 of corn, 136,004 of buck- 
 wheat, 324,431 of rye, 1,394,350 of potatoes, 169,323 
 tons of hay, and 78,421.860 lbs. of tobacco. The live 
 stock on farms were 218,838 horses, 33,598 mules, 54,- 
 709 working oxen, 243,061 milch cows, 388,414 other 
 cattle, 497,289 sheep, and 956,451 hogs.— In 1880 Va. 
 had 5,710 manufacturing establishments, employing 
 40,184 hands; capital invested $26,968,990; wages paid 
 during the year $7,425,251; value of materials, $32,- 
 883,933; value of products, $51,780,992. The largest 
 item of manufacture is tobacco, of which 32,208,664 
 lbs. were manufactured in 1880. Flour and meal 
 come next, then iron manufacture, in its various 
 stages, cotton, lumber, wooden ware and furniture, 
 woolens, sumac, paper, leather, zinc, lead, jute, 
 acids, fertilizers, lime, paper boxes, &c. Although 
 Va. has in her commodious harbors and deep estua- 
 ries great facilities for commerce and shipping, its 
 direct trade with foreign countries is not great. It 
 has seven custom-house districts, viz.: Alexandria, 
 Cherrystone, Norfolk and Portsmouth, Petersburgh, 
 Richmond, Tappahannock and Yorktown. Belonging 
 to these districts in 1880 were 1,152 sailing vessels of 
 28,610 tons, 107 steam vessels of 8,545 tons and 2 
 barges of ]56 tons. The goods imported from foreign 
 countries had a total value of $505,077, and the do- 
 
 mestic goods exported to foreign countries of $19,- 
 724,837. There were in 1882, 2,193 m. of completed 
 railroad. The State has 3 canals : the James River 
 and Kanawha, the Albemarle and Chesapeake, and 
 the Dismal Swamp. — A general school law was 
 passed July 11, 1870. In 1880 the number of public 
 schools was 2,491, pupils enrolled 108,074, average 
 daily attendance 65,771, teachers 2,504, value of 
 school property $1,088,957. The university of Va., 
 located near Charlotteville, Albemarle co., ranks 
 in the first class of American universities. The 
 Washington and Lee universities, at Lexington, are 
 controlled by the Presbyterians. The Virginia mili- 
 tary institute, at Lexington, is supported by the 
 State in part, and in part by tuition. The agricul- 
 tural and mechanical college, at Blacksburg, was 
 founded on a donation of land by the general govern- 
 ment. The Hampton agricultural and mechanical 
 school for freedmen, was founded also on a donation 
 of land by the general government. Besides these, 
 the following colleges and institutions are in opera- 
 tion, supported by tuition and endowments, viz.: 
 Randolph Macon, Richmond, Roanoke, Henry, 
 Emory and Hampden Sidney colleges ; the Union 
 theological seminary, William and Mary college, 
 founded in 1692 (the oldest collegiate institution 
 in the country after Harvard college), and the 
 Theological seminary at Alexandria. — Va. is divided 
 into 100 cos., viz.: Accomack, Albemarle, Alexan- 
 dria, Alleghany, Amelia, Amherst, Appomattox, 
 Augusta, Bath, Bedford, Bland, Botetourt, Bruns- 
 wick, Buchanna, Buckingham, Campbell, Caro-

 Wythe, and York. Richmond is the cap. The 
 other cities are Alexandria, Lynchburg, Peters- 
 burg, and Fredericksburg. The State penitentiary 
 at Richmond, is conducted on the " silent system." 
 There are three asylums for the insane, located at, 
 Williamsburg, Staunton and Richmond. The institu- 
 tion for the deaf and dumb and the blind is at Staun- 
 ton. — The legislature which meets aunually consists 
 of a senate of 43 members elected for 4 years, and a 
 house of delegates of 138 members elected for 2 
 years. The chief executive power of the common- 
 wealth is vested on a governor, who is elected for 4 
 years. The other executive officers are elected for 2 
 years by the joint vote of the two houses of the gen- 
 eral assembly. The supreme court of appeals has 5 
 judges, holding office for 12 years. All judges are 
 elected by the legislature. Va. sends 10 repre- 
 sentatives to congress and has 12 electoral votes. 
 The State election is held on the first Monday- 
 in November. A convention met at Richmond, Dec. 
 3, 1867, for the revision of the constitution, and a. 
 new constitution was ratified by the people July 6, 
 1869. By a constitutional amendment, ratified by a 
 large majority in 1874, the township system was 
 abolished (1). In 1881 the assessed val. of taxable

 for that year was 82.632,345, expenditures 82,152,028. 
 The acknowledged State debt, in 1881, was 831,935,- 
 432. The Kiddleberger law (Feb., 1S82), for readjust- 
 ing the debt directs that the debt shall be refunded 
 in new 3 per cent, bonds as follows : Consols 814,-

 the name of Virginia upon this territory, in honor of 
 the virgin Queen Elizabeth. Jamestown, which was 
 founded May 13, 1607, claims the honor of being the 
 oldest English settlement in America. In 1754 hos- 
 tilities began between the French and the English. 
 After the defeat of Braddock, in 1775, George Wash- 
 ington was put in command of the Virginia troops, 
 and gained a military experience whir 1, fitted him 
 for the command of the continental army for inde- 
 pendence. Eastern Va. suffered very severely during 
 the revolutionary war, which was virtually termina- 
 ted by the surrender, upon her soil, of Lord Corn- 
 wallis, Oct. 19, 17S1. (See Yorktowx). An ordinance, 
 o£ secession was passed April 17, 1861, and Rich- 
 mond soon after became the capital of the Southern 
 confederacy. The citizens of the Western counties 
 dissented from this action, and withdrawing, formed 
 the new State of West Virginia. On Jan. 27, 1870, 
 the government of the State was transferred to civil 
 authorities. Pop. in 1790, 747,610 ; in 1830, 1,211,405;

 Mts., 5,826 ft. above the sea. 110 m. (air line) S. of 
 Helena, and abt. 60 m. by stage N. by E. from 
 Monida Station on U.P.RR. It is supported by the 
 placer and quartz mines in the vicinity, which have 
 yielded abt. $45,000,000. The city contains a court 
 house, a jail, a public school house, 2 banks, a wkly 
 paper, a public library, and three churches (Episco- 
 pal, Methodist, and Roman Catholic).— Virginia City

 Virginia City, Nev., a city<#>, cap. of Nevada 
 co., in the Washoe Mts., at the terminus of V.&T.

 and 21 m. N.N.E. Carson City, abt. 180 m. (air line) 
 N.E. San Francisco. It is built at the E. foot of Mt. 
 Davidson, which rises 1,622 ft. above the main street 
 and 7,827 ft. above the sea. It is regularly laid out on 
 a precipitous site, with broad streets and avenues, 
 but is destitute of shade trees and unattractive in ap- 
 pearance. The pitch of the ground is such that what 
 is the first story of a house in front becomes the sec- 
 ond or third story in the rear, and in looking in any 
 direction the eye meets an unvaried prospect of chain 
 after chain of interlocked peaks. On Oct. 26, 1875, 
 the city was almost entirely destroyed by tire, but it 
 
 has been rebuilt more handsomely than ever, and a 
 similar catastrophe provided against with characteris- 
 tic energy by the construction of water-works costing 
 over 82j000,*000. It is lighted with gas, and has 5 pub- 
 lic schools (1 high and 4 grammar), a Roman Catholic 
 and several private schools,4banks,2daily,2 wkly and 
 1 monthly paper. The chief business is mining. The 
 city stands directly over the famous Comstock Lode, 
 and. near by, besides several other mines, are the cele- 
 brated consolidated Virginia mine and the big bo- 
 nanza mine, said to be the richest in the world. The 
 principal mines have machinery capable of pumping 
 water and hoisting ore from a depth of 4.000 ft. The 
 greatest depth yet reached is abt. 2,250 ft. Pop. in 
 1870, 7,048 ; in 1880, 19,917.

 Washington, a N.W. Territory, bounded N. 
 by British Columbia, E. by Idaho, S. by Oregon and 
 W. and N.W. by the Pacific Ocean, the strait of Juan 
 de Fuca and the Gulf of Georgia. It is situated be- 
 tween lat. 45° 30' and 49° N., and Ion. 117° 10' and 124° 
 50' W. The length from E. to W. is 350 m., the 
 breadth 230 m.. and the area. 66,880 sq. m. The grand 
 and picturesque Cascade Mts. — the Sierra Nevada of 
 California — traverse the territory nearly N. and S. at 
 an average distance of 100 m. from the coast. This 
 range separates the te ritory into an E. and W. por- 
 tion, differing in climate, soil, geological character 
 and natural productions. W. Wash., besides the 
 Cascade Mts., which form its eastern wall, has the 
 Coast Ranae, extending in somewhat disorderly 
 masses from the Coast Mts. of Oregon, and trend- 
 ing N.W. between Puget's Sound and the Pacific, 
 and finally terminating in the bold and lofty head- 
 lands of Cape Flattery. The S. portion of this range

 is low, but W. of Hood's Canal, in Jefferson co., it 
 rises to an elevation of 5,000 ft., and in one of its 
 summits, Mt. Olympus, to 8,150 ft. The Pacific coast 
 is generally abrupt and forbidding except the two 
 harbors of Shoalwater Bay and Gray's Harbor, but 
 the Straits of San Juan and the extensive inland sea 
 known by the general name of Puget Sound have 
 some of the best harbors and roadsteads in the 
 world. (See Puget Sound.) This W. division of the 
 territory is much broken, but it is densely wooded, 
 well watered and most of it very fertile, while the 
 fine harbors and bays of its central valley make it 
 readily accessible to commerce. Central Wash, com- 
 prises the summits of the Cascade Mts., the valley of 
 the Yakima, and the plateau stretching to the Colum- 
 bia R. The mountains on its W. border form an un- 
 broken range from 5,000 to 8,000 ft. above the sea, 
 and several lofty peaks rise from 2,000 to 6,000 ft. 
 higher. The loftiest peaks are Mt. Baker, Mt. Adams, 
 Mt. St. Helen's, and Mt. Rainier, which last is 14,444 
 above sea-level. Stretching E. towards the Columbia 
 R. is a lofty plateau channelled by the valleys of the 
 Yakima, Methow, Okinapum, and Nehoiatpugun R<. 
 and their tributaries. The Blue Mts., the summits of 
 this plateau, rise to 8,000 or 9,000 ft., but near Walla 
 Walla sink to 5,000 ft. Its lands are barren, sterile, 
 and dry, the river-valleys are very fertile. Much of 
 the plateau is scantily wooded. E. Wash, comprises 
 the valley of the Columbia and its great affluents, 
 the Clark's, Spokane, and Lewis (or Snake) Rs., and 
 the Spokane plains or plateau — the latter elevated 
 and sterile, and without forests, the former well 
 watered, fertile, and containing a sufficiency of tim- 
 ber. The^climate of W. Wash, is equable ; in E. 
 Wash, it is subject to greater extremes. In W. Wash, 
 the year may be divided into the wet and dry sea- 
 sons. The former lasts from Nov. to March or April, 
 during which period drizzly weather prevails ; the 
 latter, coveringthe rest of the year, is not absolutely 
 dry, showers being not unfrequent. The mean tem- 
 perature of W. Wash., derived from observations 
 taken near Steilaeoom (lat. 47° 10') for four years, is 
 as follows : year, 50.8°; spring. 49°; summer, 63.3°; 
 autumn, 51.9°; winter,39°; coldest month (January), 
 38.1°; warmest month (July), 64.9°. The average 
 precipitation of rain and" melted snow in the same 
 vicinity, derived from observations for six years, is 
 as follows; spring, 11.19 inches; summer, 3.85; 
 autumn, 15.83; winter, 22.62 ; year, 53.49. The least 
 rain fell in July (0.34 inch), and the most in Dec. 
 (9.92). Immediately along the Pacific coast the rain- 
 fall is much greater. The thermometer occasionally 
 reaches 90° in summer, but the nights are always 
 cool. Snow rarely falls to a great depth, and lasts 
 but a shorttime; but little ice is formed. Grass re- 
 mains green nearly the entire year, and flowers are 
 often found in bloom in midwinter. This extraordi- 
 narily mild and balmy climate in a territory situated 
 at the extreme N.W. corner of the country is caused 
 by a warm current from the China sea which washes 
 the N.W. coast of the American continent. Great 
 evaporation is c rried on and the air charged with 
 humidity. If it were not for the mountains the air 
 would be too hot and humid on the coast for com- 
 fort, but the high mountains cool it and make this 
 one of the most delightful climates in the world. The 
 climate of E. Wash, is much drier, the average an- 
 nual rainfall in the Walla Walla valley being only 18 
 inches. The mean temperature here is as follows ; 
 spring, 52°; summer, 73°; autumn, 53°; winter, 34°; 
 year, 53°. Further N. toward the British boundary 
 the winters are several degrees colder. The country 
 is healthful.— Wash, is diversified by mountain, val- 
 ley and plain, and more than two-thirds of it is suf 
 ficiently level for settlement and cultivation. Of its 
 lands 35,000,000 acres can be farmed, of which 20,000.- 
 000 are timber lands. 5,000,000 acres rich alluvial bot- 
 
 tom lands, 10,000,000 prairie and plains, and 9,796,000 
 covered by water. A large proportion of the latter is 
 well adapted to wheat culture, and all of it to stock- 
 raising. The great Columbia R. flows through Wash, 
 from N. to S. forming the Walla Walla and many other 
 valleys. The Walla Walla is almost wholly in Wash, 
 and forms two of its most wealthy cos. This valley 
 embraces 8,000 sq. m., and contains 5,120,000 acres 
 of laud. Its capacity for production of wheat, corn, 
 rye, barley and oats is not excelled by any valley in 
 the West. It contains 2,000 farms of 160 acres each, 
 and produces apples, peaches and grapes of the fin- 
 est quality. Its wool commands a premium in the 
 markets, and it has water power sufficient to turn all 
 the spindles in the wor'd. The principal products of 
 Wash, for the census year 1880 were 566,537 bush, of 
 barley ,39,183 of corn, 1,571,706 of oats, and 1,921,322 
 of wheat. The farm animals were 45,848 horses, 626 
 mules, 3,821 working oxen, 27,622 milch cows, 103,- 
 111 other cattle, 292,883 sheep, and 46,828 hogs. The 
 forests of yellow fir which deeply border the shores 
 of Puget Sound, in Wash. T., are undoubtedly the 
 finest of the sort in the world. No better timber for 
 commercial or domestic uses grows, and nowhere 
 does it grow in greater accessible areas. In the log- 
 book of the navigator who first sailed into Puget 
 Sound is this record : " I was at once awed with the 
 magnificence of the sea upon which the vessel float- 
 ed, and next with the magnificence of the surround- 
 ing forests from which other vessels could be made." 
 Following the discoverer of Puget Sound came the 
 trapper, and then the woodsman. The exportation 
 of timber for commercial purposes preceded its cut- 
 ting for domestic uses. The business gradually ex- 
 panded, and by 1860 it became of importance. At 
 this time rich lumber Ai ms in San Francisco sent out 
 their agents, who prospected the wooded region of 
 the sound, and filed upon every valuable foot of 
 forest laud found, for which the merely nominal 
 government rate was paid. The result of that course 
 is that a few large firms are able to practically mon- 
 opolize the lumber business on Puget Sound, at 
 least to the extent of dictating prices for logs and of 
 driving smaller competitors from the field. There are 
 a number of small local mills on the sound which 
 supply the home trade, and nine large export mills. 
 These latter have a daily capacity of 855,000 ft., and 
 employ over 700 men. Practical mill men estimate 
 the annual production of lumber on the sound at 
 100,000,000 ft., valued at $1,200,000. The foreign ex- 
 ports of lumber from the mills amount in round 
 numbers to $700,000 a year, with a rapidly increasing 
 trade. Shipments are made to the Sandwich Islands, 
 Mexico, Australia, China, South America, and to 
 New Zealand. Although millions upon millions of 
 feet of timber have been logged, and great waste has 
 prevailed, the loss to the forests is hardly perceptible, 
 so great is their extent. In no case have trees been 
 cut more than two miles from the sound and its 
 river tributaries. The greatest body of timber and of 
 the best quality is still several miles back on the 
 foot-hills. Methods of logging and lumber-making 
 are eminently wasteful. It is estimated that 5,000,000 
 ft. of timber is destroyed for each 1,000,000 ft. of 
 marketable lumber produced. An important branch 
 of the timber business of Puget Sound is the ship- 
 building interest. There is a small yard connected 
 with nearly all the large mills where vessels are built 
 for the companies, and several quite extensive yards 
 where ships are built by contract. In 1882 there were 
 18 vessels built, of an aggregate tonnage of 3,937. — 
 Coal abounds near Bellingham Bay, Shoakmin R. 
 and streams leading into Lake Whatcom. It is ship- 
 ped to San Francisco. The production in 1880 was 
 145,015 tons valued at $389,046. Gold has been found 
 in the waters flowing from the coast range, and rich 
 placer diggings exist on the banks and bars of many

 rivers. The production of gold in 1881 was 8120,000. 
 — The finest salmon fisheries in the world are on the 
 Columbia R. In 1880, 40,000,000 pounds were caught 
 and no less than 22,000,000 cured. Fifteen canneries 
 are in operation and they use an average of 1,000 fish 
 daily, each fish weighing about twenty pounds. The 
 salmon season lasts from April until August and 
 gives employment to a large number of persons. The 
 fish commissioner issues licenses to fishermen and 
 supervises the hatching establishment. The Oregon 
 and Washington fish propagating company is located 
 near the confluence of the Willamette and Clacka- 
 mas. — In 1880 Wash, had 261 manufacturing estab- 
 lishments employing 1,147 hands; capital invested 
 $3,202,497 ; wages paid during the year, $532,226 ; 
 value of materials, $1,967,469 ; value of products, $3,- 
 250,134. Excepting lumber, manufacturing is yet in 
 its infancy. — The territory constitutes one customs 
 district, that of Puget Sound, of which Port Town- 
 send is the port of entry. In 1882 the number of ves- 
 sels belonging to the district was 123, tonnage 37,072. 
 The value of exports for the same year was $876,121; 
 of imports $51,076. In 1882, Wash, had 480 m. of rail- 
 road in operation, the most important line being that 
 of the North Pacific, which divides the territory 
 longitudinally, and for over 200 m. traverses its rich- 
 est valleys and best timber lands. — A school law was 
 enacted by the legislative assembly in 1877. In 1880 
 the number of schools was 326 ; pupils 9,585 ; persons 
 of school age 24,223 ; school expenditures $114,- 
 379. — The territory is divided into 26 cos., viz.: 
 Chehalis, Clallam, Clarke, Columbia, Cowlitz, 
 Garfield, Island, Jefferson, King, Kitsap, Klikitat, 
 Lewis, Mason, Pacific, Pierce, San Juan, Skamania, 
 Snohomish, Spokan, Stevens, Thurston, Wahkiakum, 
 Walla Walla, Whatcom, Whitman, Yakima. The 
 principal towns are Olympia (the cap.), Walla Walla, 
 Seattle, Port Townsend, and New Tacoma. — The 
 president appoints a governor, secretary and supreme 
 court judges as in the other territories. Legislative 
 authority is vested on a council of 9 members and a 
 house of representatives of 30 members, elected for 
 2 years. The valuation of taxable property in 1882 
 was $32,566,897. Wash, was organized from a part of 
 Oregon, March 2, 1853. The numerous tribes of In- 
 dians are now well behaved. The Nez Perees and 
 Spokane tribes have cabins made of skins, and culti- 
 vate large fields of grain. All have firearms and 
 horses. Hereditary slavery and polygamy are com- 
 mon among them. — Pop. in 1860, 11,594 ; in 1870,

 Washington, -D.C., the capital of the U. 
 States, and the 14th city in the Union in point of 
 pop., is situated on the N. bank of the Potomac, in 
 the angle between that river and the E. branch, or 
 Anacostia R., near the head of navigation, 106 m. 
 above its mouth, abt. 290 m. from the Atlantic Ocean, 
 via the river and the Chesapeake Bay, and, by rail, 
 226 m. S.W. of New York. It was at the suggestion 
 of Gen. Washington that this particular site for the 
 federal city was fixed upon. The ground on which it 
 stands was ceded to the U. States by the State of 
 Maryland (See District of Colombia). The city is 
 laid out on a magnificent plan, including 5,000 acres, 
 or over 8 sq. m., sufficient to accommodate a million 
 of inhabitants or more. The extent of this plan, which 
 has caused Washington to be called a city of " mag- 
 nificent distances," gave to the place for along time 
 a very scattered appearance ; but the rapidity with 
 which of late years the city has been built up seems 
 to give hopes that the expectations of the original 
 founders may be at least partially fulfilled. "The 
 ground on which Washington stands, has a general 
 elevation of abt. 40 ft. above the level of the river, 
 with some points still higher. The streets run N. and 
 S., E. and W., across which, in a diagonal direction, 
 run a series of broad avenues, five of them radiating 
 from the capitol, and five others from the white 
 house. The avenues ami principal streets are from 
 130 to 160 ft. wide, and the points at which they meet 
 are selected as sites for public buildings. The avenues 
 are named from the different States ; the streets, be- 
 ginning at the capitol, are designated; those N. and 
 S. of it as A North and A South, B North and B 
 South, etc., and those E. and W. of it as First E., First 
 W., Second E., Second W., etc. Pennsylvania avenue, 
 extending abt. 1£ m. from the capitol to the white 
 house, is the busiest and the most fashionable street, 
 in the city. The capitol, standing on Capitol hill, 
 near the centre of the city plot, is the most strik- 
 ing building in the city, and the first object 
 that fixes attention on approaching it. Elevated 
 90 ft. above tide-water, it commands an exten- 
 sive view of the city and surrounding country. It 
 consists of a main building 352 ft. long and 121 ft. 
 deep, and two wings, or extensions, each 23S by 140 
 ft. Its whole length is 751 ft. 4 in., and the area 
 covered rather more than 3J acres. The material of 
 the central building is a light yellow freestone 
 (painted white), but the extensions are pure white 
 marble. The surrounding grounds, which are beauti- 
 fully cultivated, and embellished with fountains and 
 statuary, embrace abt. 50 acres and are known as E. 
 and W. grounds. The main front is toward the E. 
 and is adorned with three grand porticoes of Corin- 
 thiau columns. The W. front projects 83 ft., and is 
 embellished with a recessed portico of 10 columns. 
 The bronze door, which forms the entrance to the ro- 
 tunda from the E. portico was designed by R. Rogers, 
 cast by Von Midler of Munich, weighs 20,000 lbs., 
 and cost $30,000. The rotunda is 96 ft. in diameter, 
 and 180 ft. high. The dome rises over the rotunda in 
 
WAS 
 
 1052 
 
 WAS 
 
 the centre of the capitol, and is the most imposing 
 feature of the vast pile. Externally, it is 135£ ft. in 
 diameter, and rises 241 ft. above the roof of the main 
 building, 307A ft. above the base-line of the building, 
 and 377 ft. above low tide. The lantern above the 
 dome, 17 ft. in diameter and 52 ft. high, is sur- 
 mounted by the tholus, or ball, and this in turn by 
 Crawford's fine bronze statue of Liberty, 19£ ft. high. 
 A S. doorway in the rotunda leads to the old hall of 
 representatives, now used as a national statuary hall. 
 This room, the noblest in the capitol, is semi-circular 
 in form, 96 ft. long and 57 ft. high to tbeapex of the 
 ceiling. The 24 columns which support the entabla- 
 ture are of variegated green breccia, or pudding- 
 stone, from the Potomac Valley ; and the ceiling is 
 painted in panel, in imitation of that of the Pan- 
 theon at Rome. Light is admitted through a cupola 
 in the centre of the ceiling. The corridor to the S. 
 leads to the present hall of representatives, the finest 
 legislative chamber in the world, 139 ft. loug, 93 ft. 
 wide, and 3(5 ft. high. The senate chamber, reached 
 by the corridor leading N. from the rotunda, is some- 
 what smaller than the hall of representatives, being 
 113J ft. long, 80£ ft. wide, and 36 ft. high. It is very 
 tastefully fitted up. The visitors' galleries are 
 reached by marble stairways, which are among the 
 most striking architectural features of the capitol. 
 The supreme court-room, is reached by the corridor 
 leading N. from the rotunda. It is a semi-circular 
 apartment, 75 ft. loug and 45 ft. high, decorated with 
 rich Ionic columns of Potomac marble. Underneath 
 the room is the apartment devoted to the law library, 
 containing 30,000 volumes. The library of coiigress 
 is reached by the corridor from the W. door of the 
 rotunda. It occupies the entire W. projection of the 
 capitol ; the main room is 91 ft. long and 34 ft. wide, 
 ceiled with iron, and fitted up with tire-proof eases. 
 The collection, which is the largest in the U. States, 
 now numbers nearly 400,000 volumes, exclusive of 
 pamphlets, and is increasing at the rate of 10,000 
 or 15,000 volumes a year. All copyright books are, 
 by law, required to be deposited in this library. The 
 total cost of the capitol was $13,000,000.— The U. 
 States treasury, at corner of Penn. avenue and 15th 
 street, is a magnificent building in the Ionic style, 
 468 ft. loug and 264 ft. wide, 3 stories high above the 
 basement, erected at a cost of $6,000,000.— Just W. 
 of the treasury is the executive mansion, usually 
 called the " white house." It is of freestone, painted 
 white, 170 ft. long and 86 ft. deep, two stories high, 
 with a portico on the N. side (main entrance), sup- 
 ported by 8 Ionic columns, and a semi-circular col- 
 oumde on the S. side of 6 Ionic columns. — At the W. 
 of the white house is the vast and ornate building of 
 the State, war and navy departments, of granite, in the 
 Roman Doric style, 567 ft. long and 342 ft. wide, 4 
 stories high, with lofty Mansard roof. The hall of 
 the secretary of State, the ambassadors' saloon, and 
 the library, containing 30,000 volumes, are splendid 
 rooms. — The office of the department of the interior, 
 better known as the patent office, is a grand Doric 
 building of marble, freestone, and granite, occupying 
 2 blocks in the central portion of the city, 453 ft. long 
 and 331 ft. wide, including porticoes, and 75 ft. high. 
 The model room occupies the entire upper floor of 
 edifice, forming 4 large halls or chambers unequalled 
 for extent and beauty on the continent. The total 
 length of this floor is 1,350 ft., or rather more than 
 a quarter of a mile ; and it is filled with cases con- 
 taining immense numbers of models representing 
 every department of mechanical art. — The general 
 post-office, opposite the patent office, is an imposing 
 edifice of white marble in the Italian or modified Co- 
 rinthian style, 300 ft. long, 204 ft. wide, and 3 stories 
 high, erected at a cost of $1,700,000. — The department 
 of agriculture occupies a spacious brick and brown 
 stone building in the Renaissance style, situated on 
 
 the mall. It contains a library, a museum, an her- 
 barium (with 25,000 varieties of plants), and extensive 
 greenhouses. — On the mall also is the Smithsonian 
 institute, a beautiful red sandstone building in the 
 Romanesque style, 447 by 150 ft., with 9 towers rang- 
 I iug from 75 to 150 ft. in height. This noble institu- 
 ! tion was founded by James Smithson, an English- 
 man, " for the increase and diffusion of knowledge 
 [ among men." It contains a museum of natural his- 
 | tory with numerous specimens arranged in a series 
 of spacious halls ; and metallurgical, mineralogical, 
 i and ethnological collections, with many curiosities. 
 —The U. States naval observatory (lat. 38° 53 8" N., 
 Ion. 77° 3' 1.8" W. of Greenwich), occupies a com- 
 manding site on the bank of the Potomac, with hand- 
 some grounds embracing 19 acres. It was founded in 
 1842, and is now one of "the foremost institutions of 
 the kind in the world. It possesses many fine instru- 
 ments, and a good library of astronomy. — Other note- 
 worthy national buildings and institutions are the 
 signal office, the headquarters of the weather bureau; 
 the army medical museum, containing 16,000 speci- 
 mens, illustrating every species of wound and dis- 
 ease ; the ordnance museum ; the U. States pension 
 office , the census office ; the U. States arsenal ; the 
 navy yard ; the U. States coast survey; the naval 
 museum : the marine barracks ; and the marine hos- 
 pital. — Among important buildings not belonging to 
 the government are the court-house, the Masonic 
 temple, the Odd-Fellows hall, the Lincoln hall, and 
 the spacious Washington market. The only public in- 
 stitution devoted exclusively to the fine arts is the Cor- 
 coran gallery of art, on the corner of Penn. avenue 
 and 17th street, founded by the liberality of W. W. 
 Corcoran of Washington, erected in 1859 from designs 
 by Renwick, and opened with a collection of paint- 
 ings, statuary, bronzes, and casts from the antique in 
 1873. Charitable institutions abound in Washington, 
 and many of them have received continuous or occa- 
 sional aid from the treasury by act of congress. The 
 chief places of amusement are Ford's opera-house, 
 and the National theatre. The principal hotelsarethe 
 Arlington, Ebbitt house, Willard's, Riggs house, the 
 National and the Metropolitan. The city has abt. 125 
 churches, divided between 15 different religious de- 
 nominations. The manuf. interests of Washington 
 are very small, the prosperity of the city depending 
 upon the presence of the national government, which, 
 besides abt. 5,000 officers and clerks in government 
 employ (most of whom having families), draws to 
 Washington an annually increasing number of citizens 
 for motives of interest and curiosity, while its mild 
 and salubrious climate in the winter season renders 
 it an attractive resort for persons of wealth and leis- 
 ure from all quarters. There is, therefore, an exten- 
 sive local market for goods and commodities of all 
 kinds, which is met by a large and excellent variety 
 of stores of merchandise. Georgetown is an old and 
 picturesque town, distant but 2 m. from the capitol, 
 and divided only by Rock Creek from Washington 
 City, with which it is connected by 4 bridges and 2 
 lines of horse-cars. The town is beautifully situated 
 on a range of hills which command a view unsur- 
 passed in the Potomac Valley. It is the port of entry 
 of the district, and a line of steamships plies between 
 it and New York. Washington contains 5 nat. and a 
 number of other banks ; and 44 newspapers and 
 periodicals, of which 5 daily. The public schools form 
 part of the free school system of the district. There 
 are several colleges or universities, the chief of which 
 are — Columbian university, with its law and medical 
 department and preparatory school of over 100 pupils; 
 Gonzaga college (Roman Catholic) ; Howard univer- 
 sity for colored youth ; and the law school of the 
 National university. The metropolitan police force 
 has jurisdiction throughout the District of Columbia; 
 I the fire department is also coextensive with the dis-

 water from the great falls of the Potomac above by 
 an aqueduct 12 m. long, which discharges into a dis- 
 tributing reservoir 2 m. from Rock Creek and 44 m. 
 from the capitol. It has a capacity of 80,000,000 gal- 
 lons a day. The distributing reservoir is capable of 
 containing 300,000,000 gallons. From this point the 
 water is conveyed to the city in three great mains, 
 having a capacity of 300,000,000 gallons a day. The 
 present consumption is abt. 25,000,000 gallons. Pop.

 important fortresses during the revolutionary war, 
 and is now the seat of the U. States Military School, 
 organized in 1802. During the war, this post was em- 
 phatically the key of the country, as it commanded 
 the river, and prevented the British from holding 
 communication with their provinces in Canada. At 
 this point, the hill, composed of huge crags and 
 blocks of stone, protrudes to the middle of the river, 
 impelling the current towards the opposite bank, 
 and reducing the channel to less than half a mile in 
 breadth. This natural formation was eminently fav- 
 orable to the object of the fortifications erected here. 
 The cliff selected for the fortress rises from the river 
 in 3 retreating terraces ; upon the third of which, 
 188 ft. ahove the water, and spreading out into a plain 
 of more than a mile in circumference, old Fort Clin- 
 ton was erected. Upon some of the eminences rising 
 still higher in the rear, redoubts were erected cover- 
 ing this fort ; one of which was Fort Putnam, at the 
 height of 598 ft. above the river, the ruins of which 
 are still seen. On Constitution Island, which is a 
 mass of rock, towards the opposite side of the river, 
 works of strong defence were also constructed ; and 
 a heavy chain, supported by buoys, was stretched 
 across the angle made by the river, forming an effec- 
 tual bar to the passage of the enemy's ships. The 
 British had a strong desire to possess themselves of 
 this important post ; and its surrender, as is well 
 known, was to have beeu the first fruit of Arnold's 
 treason, which was providentially prevented by the 
 detection of Major Andre, and the discovery of the 
 correspondence in his possession. 
 
 These grounds, now occupied by the national Mil- 
 itary Academy, were ceded to the U, States govern- 
 ment, by the State of New York, in 1826. Here are 
 erected, for the purposes of this institution, two 
 stone barracks, one 3 and the other 4 stories high, 
 with accommodations for 250 cadets, the number au- 
 thorized to be received by law ; also a large 3-story 
 building, 275 ft. long by 75 ft. wide, for the recita- 
 tion and drawing rooms, for military exercises in 
 winter, and for a depository of apparatus, models, 
 &c. Besides these, there is a beautiful stone build- 
 ing, 2 stories high, 150 ft. in length by 60 in width, 
 in the Gothic style of the period of Elizabeth, de- 
 signed for the library and philosophical apparatus, 
 with an astronomical observatory upon one of the 3 
 towers with which the N. front is ornamented ; a 
 chapel, a hospital, a mess hall, and 17 separate dwell- 
 ings for the officers of the institution, with many 
 other necessary buildings. There is a spacious hotel, 
 finely situated at the brow of the hill, built of stone, 
 surrounded with a beautiful piazza for promenade, 
 and commanding in front a full view of the plain 
 and buildings of the academy, and in the rear a most 
 enchanting prospect of the river and Highlands. 
 During the months of July and August, the cadets 
 leave their barracks, and encamp upon the plain ;

 bounded N.W. by Ohio, N.E. by Pennsylvania and 
 Maryland, S.E. and S. by Virginia and S.W. by Ken- 
 tucky. It is situated between lat. 37° 5' and 40° 37' 
 N.. Ion. 77° 40' and 82° 35' W. The extreme length 
 from N.E. to S.W. is 270 m. and the breadth 125 m 
 Between the Ohio R. and Pennsylvania is " the Pan 
 Handle," a narrow strip which extends abt. one de- 
 gree further North, but has in some places a width 
 of only 6 m.; area, 24,645. The State is without ex- 
 ception hilly and mountainous, to such an extent, 
 indeed, as to win for it the sobriquetof " The Moun- 
 tain State," and to have suggested to its founders the 
 motto " Montani semper liberi." The hills are very 
 fertile to their tops, which are cultivated, and pre- 
 sent a remarkable growth of grass. The soil, being 
 clay, does not wash" away. The Alleghany range ex- 
 tends along the E. border, and presents "the highest 
 
 levels in the State, its peaks having an average ele- 
 vation of 2,500 ft. The " Summit" reaches a "height 
 of 2,650 ft. Nearly parallel to the Alleghanies on the 
 West, and distant from 20 to 40 m., is a series of 
 ridges and mountains which might properly be 
 termed a continuation of the Cumberland mountains, 
 embracing what are locally known as Flat Top, Cotton 
 Hill, Greenbrier, Gauley, "Birch and Rich Mts., Lau- 
 rel Hill, &e. The country gradually falls away to- 
 ward the Ohio R., which washes the W. boundary 
 for abt. 300 m., affording steam navigation for the 
 whole distance. Excepting the Potomac, which 
 forms a part of the Maryland boundary, and its af- 
 fluents; the rivers of W.Va. are tributary to the Ohio 
 whose principal affluents are the Guyandotte, the 
 Little Kanawha, the Great Kanawha, the Big Sandy 
 and the Mouongabela, all of which are navigable. 
 Flowing into the Great Kanawha are the Greenbrier, 
 Gauley, Elk and Coal Rs. In the mountains of Ran- 
 dolph co. are the sources of the Monongahela, whose 
 chief affluent is the Cheat R. In the N.E. part of 
 the State the North and South branches of the Poto- 
 mac flow N. to form that river, which constitutes the 
 N.E. boundary for 100 m. All the above streams af- 
 ford water power of unusual abundance. The valley 
 of the Great Kanawha is the finest grazing region of 
 the State. Blue grass is indigenous. About two- 
 thirds of W.Va., is covered with forests. Large 
 quantities of ginseng have been shipped from the 
 State. The lumber trade is important. The chief 
 kinds produced are oak, poplar, and hemlock, which 
 abound throughout the State except on a few high 
 levels. Next in importance, though not so abundant, 
 are walnut, cherry, buttonwood. ash, chestnut, and 
 locust. — The mineral wealth of the State can scarcely 
 be over-estimated. One-thirteenth of the entire area 
 of the U. States and 28 per cent, of the Appalachian 
 coal system lies within W.Va. This State has 16,000 sq. 
 m.of coal area, including bituminous coal, cannel coal 
 and "splint" coal, while Pennsylvania with much 
 larger surface has but 12,700 sq. m. The thickness of 
 the veins in W.Va. is also greater than elsewhere, but 
 much of these are unavailable for want of means of 
 transportation, and mines have been opened in only a 
 small part of them. Extensive mines are at Wheeling, 
 and below on the Ohio ; in Harrison, Preston and 
 Mineral cos., on the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, 
 and in Kanawha and adjacent cos , on the Chesa- 
 peake and Ohio road. For the year 1880 the product 
 of coal-mines in 28 counties was 1,792,570 tons valued 
 atSl,971,847. The mineral next in industrial value and 
 importance is' iron, which is of almost every known 
 variety of ore, and found in more than two-thirds of 
 the counties. In 1880 the iron ore mined in 6 cos. was 
 60,371 tons valued at 888,575. Salt abounds in various 
 sections, and its manufacture is a leading industry in 
 several counties. The product for the census year 
 1880 was 2,679,438 bush, valued at 8380,369. Petro- 
 leum abounds in a large portion of the State, but its 
 development is scarcely begun. Near the West center 
 of the State, in Ritchie co., is a bed of asphaltum or 
 solidified petroleum, which yields a superior oil of 
 30° gravity. Marble, common limestone, alum, fire 
 and potter's clays, and various valuable stones are 
 common to many parts of the State. A valuable 
 natural product of the State is its mineral water. 
 Several of the springs, as the Berkeley, in Morgan 
 co., White Sulphur, in Greenbrier co., and Burning, 
 in Wirt co., have acquired a national reputation. 
 There are almost countless others less famed only 
 because less accessible. — The climate has no great ex- 
 tremes either of heat or of cold. The mean annual 
 temperature of the State, as deduced from forty 
 years' observations, is that of Marietta, O., which is 
 in the lat. of the middle of the State, and only sepa- 
 rated from it by the Ohio R. It is 52° 46'. The warm 
 season is long, but the heat is not intense. Plough-

 ing and planting begin, except in the most moun- 
 tainous districts, from Mar. 15 to April 1, and the 
 first white frosts occur from Oct. 1 to 15, but cattle 
 are not housed or fed from Mar. 15 to Nov. 15. — The 
 soil varies in depth from 3 or 4 to 20 or 30 ft., and in 
 the valleys may well be said to be inexhaustible. The 
 diluvium from the adjacent hills furnishes every 
 mineral and chemical ingredient necessary for the 
 plant-growth, and rarely is the use of artificial fer- 
 tilizers known in the State, and never outside of the 
 long and densely settled sections. The soil produces 
 the heaviest timber and the richest crops with re- 
 markably little cultivation, and excels in reliability 
 and endurance the richer black soils of the Western 
 prairie. Even among the mountains there is said to 
 lie little land which might not be made productive. 
 The chief agricultural products for the year 1880 were

 Wool, butter, maple sugar and molasses, sorghum 
 molasses, and honey are also largely produced. Farm 
 animals, as given by the census of 1880 were 127,092 
 horses ; 2,425 mules ; 133,118 milch cows ; 237,354 
 oxen and other cattle ; 660,550 sheep ; and 504,300 
 hogs. — According to census returns W.Va. had, in 
 1880, 2,375 mauuf. establishments, employing 14,311 
 hands; capital invested, $13,883,390; wages paid 
 during the year, 84,313,965 ; value of materials, 
 $14,027,388 ; value of products, $22,867,126. The prin- 
 cipal items of manufacture are flour, iron forged and 
 rolled, pig iron, nails and spikes, castings, lumber, 
 and salt. Wheeling and Parkersburg are interior 
 ports of delivery belonging to the U. States customs 
 district of Louisiana. In 1882 the State had 711 m. of 
 railroad in operation. The Ohio and Chesapeake 
 Canal, extending along the Potomac, has a course of 
 100 m. across W.Va.; and the James River Canal is 
 designed to extend through to the Great Kanawha R. 
 — The free school system of the State is in very effi- 
 cient operation. For school purposes each co. is 
 divided into districts (corresponding with the town- 
 ships in other States), and each of these into sub- 
 districts. Each district is controlled by a board of 
 education consisting of a president and two com- 
 missioners, and each sub-district is under the manage- 
 ment of one trustee. These officers are chosen by the 
 electors of the district every two years. Educational 
 statistics for 1881 were given as follows : number of 
 schools, 3,703; children of school age, 213,441 ; chil 
 dreu attending school, 141,132 ; teachers, 4,327 ; value 
 of school property, $1,743,929; expenditures for 
 schools, $775,032. The State normal school, at 
 Huntington, Cabell eo., has 5 branch normal schools, 
 viz.: Fairmont, Marion co.; West Liberty, Ohio co.; 
 Glenville, Gilmer co.; Shepherdstown, Jefferson co.; 
 and Concord, Mercer co. The West Virginia uni- 
 versity at Morgantown, opened in 1867, embraces six 
 departments, viz.: 1, preparatory; 3, literary, cover- 
 ing a four years' course of studies arranged in nine 
 schools, upon the completion of which the degree of 
 bachelor of arts is conferred; 3, scientific, affording 
 a four years' course in eight schools, and leading to 
 the degree of bachelor of science ; 4, agricultural, 
 with a two years' course; 5, military; 6, engineering. 
 It had 162 students in 1881. The other colleges are 
 
 Bethany college at Bethany, Brooke co., West Vir- 
 ginia college, at Flemington ; Stone college, at Har- 
 per's Ferry ; and St. Vincent's college, a Roman 
 Catholic theological seminary at Wheeling. Chief 
 among the institutions for the advance instruction 
 of women, are the Wheeling female college and the 
 Parkersburg female academy of the visitation (Roman 
 Catholic). The State penitentiary, at Watson, con- 
 tain? 224 cells. There is an asylum for the insane at 
 Weston, and an asylum for the deaf, dumb and blind 
 at Romuey. — The State is divided into 54 cos., viz.: 
 Barbour, Berkeley, Boone, Braxton, Brooke, Cabell, 
 Calhoun, Clay, Doddridge, Fayette, Gilmer, Grant, 
 Greenbrier, Hampshire, Hancock, Hardy, Harrison, 
 Jackson, Jefferson, Kanawha, Lewis, Lincoln, Logan, 
 Marion, Marshall, Mason, McDowell, Mercer,Mineral, 
 Monongalia, Monroe, Morgan, Nicholas, Ohio, Pen- 
 dleton, Pleasants, Pocahontas, Preston, Putnam, 
 Raleigh, Randolph, Ritchie, Roane, Summers, Tay- 
 lor, Tucker, Tyler, Upshur, Wayne, Webster, Wetzel, 
 Wirt, Wood and Wyoming. The cities are Wheeling, 
 (the commercial metropolis), Charleston (the cap.), 
 and Parkersburg;. — The legislative power is vested 
 in a senate of 24 members (one-half of whom are 
 elected biennially for 4 years), and a house of dele- 
 gates, elected for 2 years. The sessions of the legiskv 
 ture are biennial. The executive department consists 
 of a governor (salary $2,700) and other officers, elec- 
 ted for 4 years. The judicial power is vested in a su- 
 preme court of 4 judges, elected for 12 years ; 13 cir- 
 cuit courts ; and county courts (one in each co.) com- 
 posed of a president and 2 justices of the peace. The 
 State is entitled to 4 representatives in congress, and 
 has 6 electoral votes. W.Va. has no State debt. The re- 
 ceipts from all sources in 1881 (including $253,798.82 
 balance of preceding year) were $928,929.36 ; expen- 
 ditures $682,628.51 ; balance in the treasury $246,- 
 300.45. The valuation of personal property and real 
 estate for 1882 was $146,548,176.— The Blue Ridge 
 Mts., marked the AV. boundaries of settled Va., un- 
 til abt. a century ago. Eastern Virginia possessed 
 half a million of population at that time, while 
 W.Va., was yet an almost unbroken wilderness. Set- 
 tlements were made in Greenbrier and Berkeley cos. 
 before the close of the revolutionary war. W.Va., 
 began its separate history on the 13th of May, 1861, 
 when delegates from 25 cos., met in convention at 
 Wheeling and passed resolutions opposing the ordi- 
 nance of secession which Va. had passed. On the 11th 
 of June representatives from 40 cos. assembled, and 
 measures were taken for the establishment of a 
 provisional government. The first legislature as- 
 sembled at Wheeling July 2. A constitutional con- 
 vention met Nov. 26, and the constitution proposed 
 was ratified by the people May 3, 1862. An act of 
 congress providing for the admission of W.Va., as a 
 State was approved by the president on the 31st of 
 Dec., 1862. A new constitution was formed in 1872, 
 and ratified by the people on Aug. 22. Pop. in 1870, 
 442,014 ; in 1880, 618,457 (of whom 314,495 males and 
 303,962 females; 600, 192 natives and 18,265 of foreign 
 birth ; 592,527 whites, 25,886 colored, 5 Chinese, and 
 29 Indians).

 YY r heeling, W. La., a eity<i>and port of delivery, 
 cap. of the State and of Ohio co., and the most 
 popular and most important place in commerce and 
 manufactures in the State, is situated on theE. bank 
 of the Ohio R. and on both sides of Wheeling Creek, 
 which here empties into the Ohio and is crossed by a 
 fine stone bridge, 92 m. below Pittsburg, 365 m. above 
 Cincinnati. Wheeling is also on B.&O. and P..C.&St. 
 L.RRs., 215 m. W.N/W. Washington. The hills back 
 of the city come so near the river as to leave rather 
 a small area for building, so that the city has been 
 forced to extend along the high alluvial ground, for 
 a distance of abt. 5 m. It is divided into 8 wards, 
 but the division most commonly known is that into 
 North, East, Centre and South Wheeling, and Zane's 
 Island, in the Ohio, which is more than a mile long, 
 contains 400 acres, and is connected with the city by 
 a fine suspension bridge. The most, noteworthy pub- 
 lic buildings are the new capitol and court house, 
 the custom house, the theatre, &c. The city has 8 
 public schools, in which both German and English 
 are taught, 2 seminaries, 22 churches, a public library 
 with reading room, 1 nat. and 7 other banks, 2 daily, 
 4 semi-wkly and 5 wkly papers. Wheeling is princi- 
 pally a manufacturing place, the surrounding coun- 
 try containing enormous deposits of bituminous 
 coal, which is readily and cheaply obtained, 7 nail 
 factories, 5 blast furnaces, a rail-mill, bar and sheei 
 iron-mill, several glass factories, 2 paper-mills, and a 
 number of foundries and machine shops, 1 hinge 
 and 1 tack factory, and several other manufacturing 
 establishments are in operation. The trade, however, 
 carried on by way of the river and the railroad lines 
 is very considerable. A large business is done in the 
 building of steamers, 18 of which of 1,981 tons in ag- 
 gregate, were bui't during the year 1882. The total 
 shipping belonging 'o the port in 1883 carried of 144 
 steam-vessels of 17.330 tons. Wheeling was settled 
 in 1774. Pop. in 1870, 19,280; in 1880. 30.736.

 White Mis., a group of mountains in the 
 counties of Coos, Carroll and Grafton, N.H., usually 
 regarded as a part of the Appalachian system. In a 
 wider sense it begins about the head waters of the 
 Aroostook in Maine, its first great summit being Mt. 
 Katahdin. It follows a S.W. course to the Andros- 
 coggin R., S. of which it spreads out in a broad pla- 
 teau, 1,600 to 1,800 ft. in height, 30 m. long from N. 
 to S., and abt. 45 m. broad, and bounded S. by the 
 Merrimack R. and Squam, Winnipiseogee, and Ossi- 
 pee lakes. This plateau, from which rise more than 
 200 peaks, and which is traversed by several deep 
 narrow valleys, forms the region known to tourists as 
 the " White Mts." The peaks cluster in two groups, 
 the eastern or White Mt. group and the Franconia 
 group, separated from each other by a tableland 
 from 10 to 15 m. wide. Mt. Washington is the high- 
 est summit of the E. group, and is indeed the high- 
 est peak in the U. States E. of the Mississippi R., 
 excepting Mitchell's High Dome in N.C. Its height 
 is 6,293 ft. The height of some of the other peaks is 
 as follows: Pleasant, 4,764 ft.; Franklin, 4,904; 
 Monroe, 5,384; Jefferson, 5,714; Adams, 5,794; 
 Madison, 5,365. The principal summits of the Fran- 
 conia group are Mts. Lafayette (5,259 ft.), Liberty, 
 Cherry Mt. and Moosilauke (4.811). Near the south- 
 ern border of the plateau rise Whitefaee Mt., Choco- 
 rua peak (3,540 ft.), Red hill, and Mt. Ossipee ; and 
 in the E. Mt. Pequawket, 3,251 ft. N. of the plateau, 
 and near the upper waters of the Connecticut R. are 
 several considerable summits, of which the twin 
 mountains known as the Stratford peaks are the most 
 considerable. The most noteworthy of many water- 
 falls among the mountaius are : the Artist's fall in 
 North Conway ; the Silver Cascade, on the side of 
 Mt. Webster ;' Ripley's falls, on a tributary of the 
 Saco, below the Willey house, the lower one, Sylvan 
 Glade cataract, falling 156 ft. at an angle of 45°, in a 
 stream from 50 to 75"ft. wide ; the falls of the Am- 
 monoosuck, which in a course of 30 m. descends over 
 5,000 ft.; the Berlin falls, on the Androscoggin, de- 
 scending over200 ft. in the course of a mile ; and the 
 Crystal cascade and Glen Ellis fall near the Glen 
 house, on a tributary of the Androscoggin. There 
 are five "notches," or passages through the moun- 
 tains : the White Mt. notch, 1,914 ft. high, 2 m. 
 long, and at its narrowest point only 22 ft. wide, 
 through which the Saco R. passes ; the Franconia 
 notch, 2,014 ft., which permits the passage of the 
 Pemigewasset ; the Pinkham notch, 2,018ft., through 
 which a branch of the Saco and one of the Andros- 
 coggin find their way ; and the Grafton and Dixville 
 notches, through which flow the Androscoggin and 
 one of its tributaries. "The Flume" at Franconia 
 notch is the most noted of the narrow waterways ex- 
 cavated through the rock, though there are others 
 hardly inferior to it. The White Mts. constitute a 
 favorite summer resort, and are remarkable for their 
 wild and varied scenery. They are readily accessible

 by several railroad routes, and are well provided with 
 hotels and roads. Not the least remarkable of the 
 sights of this region is the railway by which a loco- 
 motive climbs Mount Washington, rising 3,625 ft. iu 
 3 m. The White Mts. were first visited by white men 
 in 1812, but no settlements were made in the region 
 till abt. 1771.

 "Wilmington, 2H.,'city and port of entry. 
 New Castle co., on Delaware R., at the junction of 
 its affluents, Brandywine and Christiana Creeks, and 
 on the P.,W.&B., the D.W., and the W.&N.RRs., 28 
 m. S.E. Philadelphia, and 70 m. N.E. Baltimore. It is 
 situated in the midst of one of the finest agricultural 
 districts in the Middle States. Its site, like that of 
 Philadelphia, and of Baltimore, is on the outer edge 
 of the primitive formation, and on the inner edge of 
 the sea sand alluvion. The city is built on ground 
 gradually rising to the height of 112 ft. above the 
 level of tide water. It is laid out with regularity ; the 
 streets, which are broad and airy, cross each other 
 at right angles. It is supplied with water from the 
 Brandvwine, bv water-works, like those of Philadel- 
 phia. The place is well built ; the houses are gener- 
 ally of brick, and many of them are elegant. It has 
 abt. 50 churches, and is distinguished for its excellent 
 private, schools. The Delaware Historical Society, the 
 Mechanics' Institute, and the Wilmington Institution 
 have libraries, the last containing 12.000 volumes. 
 The principal public buildings are the city hall, the 
 custom house and post office, a hospital and alms- 
 
 house, two market houses. The Wilmington Insti- 
 tute, the opera house, several banks, and an arsenal. 
 Wilmington is the largest place in Del., and, next to 
 Philadelphia, the greatest mart of trade in the basin 
 of the Delaware R. The Christiana admits vessels 
 drawing 14 ft. of water to the city ; and those draw- 
 ing 8 ft. can come up the Brandywine. Considerable 
 shipping is owned here, but Wilmington is more dis- 
 tinguished for its various manuf. than for its mari- 
 time commerce. The falls of the Brandywine, in the 
 immediate neighborhood, afford a valuable water- 
 power, which is rendered available to a great extent 
 for the operations of machinery ; applied to flouring 
 mills, paper-mills, saw-mills, cotton, woolen, and 
 various other manufactories. The fiouring-mills at 
 Wilmington are among the largest in the U. States. 
 The making of gunpowder has been carried on here 
 extensively for many years. The city, however, is es- 
 pecially noted for tie extent and variety of its manuf. 
 by steam power, including carriages, moioceo, cars, 
 cotton goods, iron castings, iron steamships, plate, 
 bar, and sheet iron, engines and boilers, a great 
 variety of other articles of iron and steel, phosphates 
 and sulphuric acid, wooden vessels, boots and shoes, 
 leather, &c, and vulcanized fibre, the result of a 
 chemical process for utilizing paper for various pur- 
 poses in which leather, wood, and iron have hereto- 
 fore been employed. Wilmington was the first place 
 in the country wher e iron ship-building was carried 
 on, and it is still a leading seat of that industry. In 
 the manufacture of passenger cars Wilmington ranks 
 first in t e country, while it is among the first in its 
 annual production of morocco and carriages. The 
 city has a police force, and a fire department provided 
 with seven steam engines and improved apparatus. 
 There are 4 nat., 2 savings and 5 other banks, 5 daily,

 city in the State, and is well situated for trade though 
 not accounted healthy in its location. There are two 
 islands enclosed by different channels of the river, 
 opposite the city, which afford some of the finest rice

 ton compress company, a cotton factory, 5 saw and 
 planing-mills, 9 turpentine distilleries, &c. The city 
 is the terminus of 3 railroads, viz.: the W.&W., the W. 
 C.&A., and the C.C. The last runs through the S. 
 portion of the State to its VV. border ; the others con- 
 nect with other lines running N. and S. Wilmington 
 has an extensive commerce both coast-wise and for- 
 eign ; the latter has largely increased within the last 
 few years. There are regular lines of steamers to 
 Baltimore, Philadelphia, and New York. Vessels 
 drawing 16 ft. can load at the wharves , when the 
 improvements on the bar now in progress are com- 
 pleted, the depth of water will be materially increas- 
 ed. The principal articles of shipments are lumber, 
 turpentine, rosin, tar, pitch, spirits of turpentine, 
 shingles, and cotton. Wilmington has long been the 
 leading market for naval stores in the world. The 
 value of imports for foreign countries for the year 
 1882, was §289,647 ; of exports, $5,793,188. The com- 
 mercial fleet in the same year consisted of 280 sailing 
 vessels of 8,463 tons, and 17 steam vessels of 1,826 
 tons. During the civil war, and especially in 1864, 
 Wilmington was the principal confederate port, ac- 
 cessible to blockade runners. It was laid out in 1733 
 under the name of Newton, and was incorporated as 
 a city in 1866. Pop. in 1870, 13,446 ; in 1880, 17,350.

 The river here makes a fall of 20 ft., supplying a 
 water-power which is largely utilized for manuf. 
 purposes.^* 
 
 Winooski River, Vt., one of the largest and 
 most valuable rivers in the State, is abt. 70 m. in 
 length, and in its course fertilizes large tracts of land, 
 and produces a great hydraulic power. It rises in 
 Caledonia co., passes through Washington and Chit- 
 tenden cos., and falls into Champlain Lake, 5 m. N. 
 of Burlington. It has numerous tributaries, and is 
 one of the most romantic streams in the country. 
 The channels which have been worn in the rocks by 
 its ceaseless current are objects of great admiration. 
 In its passage through the mountains are found fis- 
 sures through solid rocks from 30 to 100 ft. in depth, 
 with smooth, perpendicular sides, 60 or 70 ft. in 
 width. Iu many places on this stream are natural 
 bridges, curious caverns, and delightful waterfalls. 
 The Indians on their trading excursions between 
 Canada and the Connecticut. R., passed up and down 
 this stream in their bark canoes ; and as wild onions 
 were found on its banks, they called it Winooski, 
 which, in their beautiful and expressive language, 
 signifies onion.

 rn. It is navigable by small steamers to Portage City, 
 200 m. above its mouth. At this point it approaches 
 within m. of the Fox R., with which it is con- 
 nected by a canal. The channel of the Wisconsin is

 — a N. central State, bounded N. and N.E. by Lake 
 Superior and the State of Michigan, E. by Lake Mich- 
 igan, S. by Illinois, S.W. and W. by Iowa and Min- 
 nesota. It is situated between lat. 42" 30' and 46° 58' 
 N., and Ion. 87° and 92° 30' W. The length from N. 
 to S. is 310 m., the breadth from E. to W. 285 rn., 
 and the area, 54,450. The State occupies a swell of 
 laud lying betwecu three notable depressions : Lake 
 Michigan on the E., Lake Superior on the N., and 
 the valley of the Mississippi on the W. The whole 
 surface of Wis. may, with slight exceptions, be con- 
 sidered one vast plain, varied only by the cliffs bor- 
 dering the rivers and lakes, and the moderate 
 undulations called " rolling." This plain is from 
 600 to 1,500 ft. above the ocean. The highest lands 
 are those along the sources of- the tributaries of 
 Lake Superior, which, near the Montreal R., are 
 1,700 to 1,800ft. above the sea, gradually diminishing 
 westward to abt. 1,100 ft. at the W. line of the State. 
 The cliffs along the E. shores of Green Bay and 
 Lake Winnebago extend as far as Iron Ridge in 
 Dodge co., and form a bold escarpment. From this 
 ridge the country slopes gradually E. to Lake Mich- 
 igan. On this slope there is a remarkable series of 
 drift hills and circular depressions called " potash 
 kettles," extending S.S.W. from the peninsula E. of 
 Green Bay into tfie State of Illinois ; one of the 
 highest peaks in Washington co. is 1,402 ft. above 
 the sea. — The Montreal, Bad, Bois Bruit?, and St. 
 Louis Rs. discharge their waters into Lake Superior. 
 They are all short, and have a descent of abt. 800 ft. 
 in alength of 30 or 40 m. The Menomonee, Peshtigo, 
 Oconto, Pensaukee, and Fox or Neenah Rs. run into 
 Green Bay. The Kewaunee, Two Rs. (East and West 
 Twin), Manitowoc, Sheboygan, and Milwaukee are 
 tributaries of Lake Michigan. The Mississippi, as 
 already stated, forms a part of the W. boundary of 
 the State, and receives within the State the St. Croix, 
 Chippewa, Buffalo, Trempealeau, Black, and Wis- 
 consin Rs., as well as several smaller streams. 
 The Rock, Illinois, Fox, and Des Plaines Rs., all 
 tributaries of the Mississippi in 111., drain the 
 S. portion of the State. The Wisconsin, St. Croix, 
 Chippewa, and Neenah or Fox Rs. are navigable for 
 a considerable distance. The State has a coast-line 
 of 120 m. on Lake Superior, of 200 m. on Lake Mich- 
 igan, and of 400 on the Mississippi and its larger tribu- 
 taries. The State abounds in lakes, many of them 
 of great beauty. Aside from Lakes Superior and Mich- 
 igan, Lake Winnebago is the largest lake in the 
 State, being 28 m. long and 10 broad ; it is abt. 170 
 ft. above Lake Michigan. Lake Mendota, and many 
 hundreds of other lakes, especially in the N. part of 
 the State, add beauty to the landscape. Green Bay, 
 an arm of Lake Michigan, extends far into the State. 
 Superior Bay, St. Louis Bay, and Chequanegon Bay 
 project into the State from Lake Superior. The Mis- 
 sissippi just before receiving the St. Croix R. spreads 
 out in a wide bay known as Lake Pepin, and the St. 
 Croix forms a similar expanse of water called Lake 
 St. Croix. A number of islands in Lake Superior and 
 Green Bay belong to Wisconsin. — The useful mineral 
 materials of Wis. come under the head of metallic 
 ores and non-metallic substances. Of the first class 
 are the ores of lead, zinc, iron and copper ; of the 
 
 second class are the principal substances found in 
 brick-clay, kaolin, cement rock, limestone for burn- 
 ing into quick lime, limestone for flux, glass-sand, 
 peat and building stone. In Wis. lead and zinc are 
 found together ; the former has been utilized since 
 1826 ; the latter since 1850. The cos. of La Fayette, 
 Iowa and Grant — the S.W. cos. of the State — are 
 known as the " Lead Region." All the lead and zinc 
 obtained in Wis. are from these counties. The lead 
 ore is of one kind only — that known as galena. A 
 large amount is produced yearly from the various 
 mining districts in the lead region. The number of 
 pounds raised from single crevices has often been 
 several hundred thousand. The zinc ores were for- 
 merly rejected as useless, but their value is, beyond 
 doubt, very great, and they will be a source (.f wealth 
 to the lead region for a longtime to come, as they 
 are now extensively utilized. Iron mining in the 
 State is yet in its infancy. Numbers of blast furnaces 
 have sprung up in the eastern portion, but these 
 smelt Michigan ores almost entirely. The several 
 ores in Wis. are red hematites, brown hematites, 
 magnetic ores, and specular hematites ; the first are 
 found in Dodge co.; the second in Portage, Wood 
 and Juneau ; the two lart in Bayfield, Ashland, Lin- 
 coln and Oconto cos. The product of iron mines for 
 the year 1880 was 41,420 tons, valued at $73,000.— 
 Allhough the State extends over 4£° of lat., its cli- 
 mate is in no part severe, its temperature being 
 greatly modified by Lakes Michigan and Superior, 
 which form a large part of its boundary on the E. 
 and N. Its mean annual temperature does not vary 
 much from 42° F., bcinsr on the S. border abt. 45°, 
 and at the N. limit abt. 50°. Snow falls in the N. be- 
 fore the occurrence of heavy frosts, and continues 
 till spring, thus protecting the roots of plants, trees, 
 and shrubs from being killed by the frost. The win- 
 ters are long and cold, but nearly uniform in tem- 
 perature ; the springs backward ; the summers short, 
 and usually hot, often dry ; the autumns generally 
 mild and pleasant. The extensive forests which 
 cover the northern and larger portion of the State 
 yield excellent timber, and are a chief source of 
 wealth of the State. They consist of basswood, ma- 
 ple, hickory, elm, ash, black walnut, butternut, oak, 
 birch, poplar, hemlock, cedar and pine. The south- 
 ern part of the State is an extensive prairie, without 
 native tree or shrub, except on the banks of the 
 streams. The prairie soil is a vegetable mould of a 
 dark brown color, from one to eight feet deep and 
 of great fertility. There is a large proportion of silex 
 and but little clay. Good crops are raised from the 
 cleared timber laLds. Oak openings, where the un- 
 dergrowth has been kept down by prairie fires, af- 
 ford some of the finest lands already prepared for the 
 husbaudman. The mineral region, in the N.W., is 
 not well adapted for agriculture. The principal agri- 
 cultural products for the year 1880 were as follows :

 most important pursuit in Wis. is Manufacturing ; 
 foremost in this interest is lumber, of which the pin- 
 eries furnish the raw material. The pine region ex- 
 tends through the northern counties of the State 
 from Green Bay to the St. Croix R. The demand is 
 constantly increasing, while the facilities for its 
 manufacture are continually enlarging. Over one 
 billion feet of logs are cut annually. The lumber mills 
 have a capacity exceeding one and one-half billion 
 feet. The products of these find their way to 
 market, either by the Mississippi and its tributaries, 
 by the various lines of railways, or through the 
 Great Lakes. The other leading articles of inanuf. 
 are flour, boots and shoes, leather, agricultural im- 
 plements, iron castings, carriages and wagons, and 
 malt liquors. In the census year, 1880, there were in 
 Wis. 7,674 manuf. establishments, employing 57,109 
 hands; capital invested §73,821,802; wages paid dur- 
 ingthe year, §18,814,917; value of materials, §85,796,- 
 178; value of products, §128,255,480.— Wis. had in 
 in 1882, 3,442 m. of railroad in operation. The State 
 possesses besides great facilities for transportation 
 by the lakes and rivers which wash its boundaries 
 and penetrate its interior counties. The Fox and 
 Wisconsin Rs. are connected by the Portage Canal, 
 which extends through Portage City, about one mile. 
 Important improvements by the national govern- 
 ment in these rivers have been in progress for several 
 years, by means of which and the construction of a 
 ship canal it is contemplated to open a channel for 
 large vessels between the Mississippi R. and Lake 
 Michigan. The U. States customs district of Milwau- 
 kee includes all the shores, harbors, and waters of

 port of entry, and De Pere, Green Bay, Kenosha, Ra- 
 cine, and Sheboygan are ports of delivery. La Crosse 
 is a port of delivery in the district of Louisiana. The 
 foreign commerce of Milwaukee is considerable, and

 whence they extended their hunting grounds S. to 
 Sandusky. In 1832 they sold their lands in Ohio to 
 the U. States government, and were removed, num- 
 bering 687, to the junction of the Kansas aud Mis-

 souri Rs., where they still remain. They are now re- 
 duced to abt. 200, loss which is partly owing to the 
 adoption of U. States citizenship by a portion of the 
 tribe. This portion is generally prosperous, the other 
 by no means so. Those of the U. States bear the 
 name of Wyandots, the name by which they called 
 themselves, while their long separated brethren of 
 Canada are still called Hurons.

 est and best agricultural districts to be found in the 
 Missouri valley, is connected with Kansas City, Kan., 
 by two free bridges, and is within 15 minutes walk 
 of the union depot at Kansas City, Mo. Wyandotte 
 contains 8 churches, an academy and parochial 
 school under the auspices of the Roman Catholic 
 church, a public library, a State blind asylum, 2 
 public schools, 2 banks, 3 grist-mills, 2 public halls, 
 and 2 wkly papers. It is the sixth city in population 
 and importance in Kansas. Its prosperity and impor- 
 tance are derived from the machine-shops of K.P. 
 RR., the Kansas stock-yards, the Kansas rolling- 
 mills, the immense pork and beef-packing houses, 
 and large cooper-shops located in its outskirts,

 Wyoiiijng (wi-o'mingr), a N.W. Territory bound 
 ed N.'by Montana, E. by Dakota and Nebraska, S. 
 by Colorado and Utah and W. by Utah. Idaho and 
 Montana. It is situated between i a t. 41° and 45" N., 
 and Ion. 104° and 111° W. In form it is a rectangular 
 parallelogram, 350 m. long from E. to W., 280 m. 
 broad ; area, 97,575. From it a tract of 3,575 m. in 
 the N.W. corner has been set apart by congress for 
 a National Park. (See Yellowstone). Lying in the 
 midst of what is commonly known as the Rocky Mtn. 
 range, Wyo. naturally presents itself to the mind of 
 one who has never traversed it as a succession of 
 wild and rocky elevations. In fact, however, it is an 
 immense plateau having a mean elevation of 6,500 
 ft. above the sea-level. From this plateau the Rocky 
 Mts. rise in ridges and groups which are designated 
 by various local names. In the S.E. are the Black 
 Hills (Rocky Mtn. group), terminating in Laramie 
 Peak, which" has an elevation of 10,000 ft., and the 
 Medicine Bow Mts. In the N.E. are the Black Hills 
 (Dakota group), of which Inyan Kara is 6,600 ft. 
 high. The Big Horn Mts. occupy the N. district ; 
 and in the W. and N.W. are the Wind River Range 
 and the Snow Mts., or Sierra Shoshone. Among the 
 most elevated summits are Fremont's Peak (13,570 
 ft.), Washakee Needles (12,253), Mount Sheridan 
 (10,420), Mount Doane (10,118), Mount Washburne 
 (10,105), and Sailer Mtn. (10,040). In the snow cov- 
 ered mountains of N.W. Wyo., within a radius of ten 
 miles, the head-streams of three of the great rivers 
 of America take their rise— viz., the Yellowstone, 
 flowing into the Missouri, the Snake, into the Col- 
 umbia, and the Green, into the Colorado. The Green 
 R. drains a basin in the S.W. 223 m. long and 75 m. 
 wide, which was formerly the bed of a lake. The 
 Yellowstone Basin has an area of 5,000 sq. m. The 
 Wind and Big Horn Rs. (which empty into the Yel- 
 lowstone in Montana) drain a district 176 m. long 
 and 126 m. wide in the N. The S.E. section, 204 m. 
 long and 173 m. wide, belongs to the North Platte 
 Ba.sin. All of these rivers have numerous tributaries, 
 affording abundant water power, but Wyo. contains 
 no navigable streams. A dense growth of coniferous 
 trees clothes the mountains ; the timber line is at an 
 
WYO 
 
 1115 
 
 WTO 
 
 elevation of from 9,400 to 9,900 ft. From the moun- 
 tain pines is obtained "the finest timber in the world." 
 Cottonwood nourishes along the streams. The Big 
 Horn Basin is scantily wooded. Game is plentiful, 
 including the antelope, bear, bison, big horn or 
 mountain sheep, beaver, deer, elk, grouse, etc. — The 
 mountains abound in a great variety of minerals 
 having large present or prespective value. Iron is 
 found in many localities and various in kind ; the 
 most important deposit being the so-called " Iron 
 mountain," located in the Laramie range of moun- 
 tains, some 25 m. N. of the U.P.RR. This is a mag- 
 netic ore very rich in metallic in n, though a little 
 difficult of working, owing to the presence of titanic 
 acid. There is also a veryinteresting deposit of iron 
 in the form of red oxide, very near the railway at 
 Rawlins, which has been utilized already to some 
 extent for the manufacture of a very superior brown- 
 ish-red paint. Coal abounds in many portions of 
 Wyo., and in quality compares favorably with the 
 best coals hitherto found west of Indiana. Indeed, 
 the whole Territory might be considered one vast 
 coal basin without any very improper use of terms. 
 They are variously classifiable as lignites, brown, 
 semi-bituminous and bituminous ; though in general 
 terms, they are bituminous. They are mined at var- 
 ious points on the line of the railway ; the yield for 
 the year 1880, was 589,595 tons valued at 81,080,451. 
 Petroleum is likely to become an important product, 
 although but little has yet been accomplished. Springs 
 yielding a very superior quality of lubricating oil 
 have been improved in the narrow valley of the 
 Popo-Agie (a tributary of the Wind R.), and the pro- 
 duct is now in use by the Union Pacific railway 
 company, who express the opinion that it is equal, if 
 not superior, to the best lubricating oils of West 
 Virginia. Gold and silver are found in nearly every 
 mountain range. At a number of places in the Medi- 
 cine Bow, Wind River, Big Horn, Seminole, and 
 Laramie Mts., gold has been discovered in paying 
 quantities, and in the first two ranges mentioned it 
 has already been mined with profit. In that portion 
 of the famous Black Hills, which lies on the Wyo. 
 side of the boundary between it and Dakota, recen* 
 discoveries encourage the opinion that an important 
 gold district is destined to be opened there. Copper, 
 asphaltum, graphite, soda, sulphur, and mica 
 abound. — The climate varies with the altitude, being 
 severe on the higher mountains and comparatively 
 mild in the sheltered valleys. The air is pure and 
 bracing, but little rain falls. The mean temperature 
 at Cheyenne (lat. 41° 12', Ion. 104° 42', altitude 6,058 
 ft.) is abt. 44°; total rain fall 12 inches. In 18S0 the 
 mean temperature of July, the warmest month, was 
 70.6°; of Jan., the coldest, 11° 8°; maximum observed, 
 97° (in July); minimum, — 37° (in Jan.). The numer- 
 ous valleys of the Platte, the two Laramies, the 
 Green, the Sweetwater, the Bear, the Snake, the 
 Wind, the Big Horn, the Powder, the Tongue, and 
 the Cheyenne Rs., and their hundreds of tributaries, 
 afford exceedingly productive soils, which, with con- 
 venient irrigation and proper cultivation, can be 
 made to yield fine crops of wheat, rye, oats, barley, 
 the tame grasses, potatoes, and many other crops 
 grown in the north temperate zone. Cultivation of 
 those above mentioned has already been commenced 
 at several places with the most gratifying results. 
 The lateness of the spring and the early coming of 
 frosts in the fall, preclude the successful growth of 
 Indian corn and the more tender fruits. The valleys 
 and plains together furnish the best cattle and sheep 
 ranges in the world. The native grasses are not only 
 the most nutritious known, butthe climate is such 
 (being dry in the autumn) that they cure before the 
 coming of snow ; thus furnishing the herds which 
 roam over the plains a standing hay of such quality 
 that feeding of cattle during the winter is unknown. 
 
 Sometimes a fall of snow, succeeded by thawing, 
 freezing so as to form a crust, necessitates the feed- 
 ing of a very little hay to sheep less than the strong- 
 est, but this is exceptional. The number of farm ani- 
 mals in 1880 was 11,975 horses ; 671 mules ; 718 work- 
 ing oxen; 3,730 milch cows; 273,625 other cattle; 
 140.225 sheep ; and 567 hogs. — According to census 
 returns, Wyo. had, in 1880, 57 manuf. establish- 
 ments, employing 391 hands ; capital invested §364,- 
 673; wages paid during they ear, §187,798; value 
 of materials, §601,214 ; value' of products, §898,494. 
 The grazing of cattle for beef, the breeding of horses, 
 and the production of wool, constitute the leading 
 industry of Wyo.; mining, lumbering, manufactur- 
 ing, and agriculture, ranking afterward, in the order 
 of mention. Since the organization of the Territory, 
 numerous villages have sprung up along the line of 
 the Union Pacific railroad, which, for a distance of 
 465 m ., traverses the southern portion, with present 
 populations of 200 to 4,000, and with numerous hand- 
 some business blocks and private residences ; two 
 other railroads, both leading into Colorado, as well 
 as many wagon roads through the Territory, have 
 been built; and there is now an aggregate of wealth 
 but little short of §20,000,000. In 1882 the Territory 
 had 533 m. of railroadin operation. — The schools are 
 modelled after the very best in the country, well 
 supported, well taught, free to all pupils, and fully 
 attended under a compulsory law, and the yet more 
 potent influence of public sentiment. Churches are 
 numerous and liberally supported. — The territory is 
 divided into 7 cos., viz.: Albany, Carbon, Crook, 
 Johnson, Laramie, Sweetwater, and Uintah. The 
 principal towns are Cheyenne (the cap.), Laramie 
 City, Sherman, Rawlins, Carbon, South Pass City, 
 Rock Springs, Green River City, Atlantic City, and 
 Evanston. The Territorial administration of public- 
 affairs is in the hands of officers appointed by the 
 president for the term of 4 years. The legislature is 
 chosen by the people, though paid by the federal 
 government. Taxes arelight and the Territoryis free 
 from debt. The laws are characterized by exceptional 
 liberality ; conferring equal politicial privileges upon 
 all persons of suitable age, regardless of sex, color, or 
 condition. — In a report addressed in Sept., 1881, to the 
 secretary of the interior, the governor of Wyo, Mr. 
 John W. Hoyt, sums as follows the progress and 
 present condition of the Territory : "The mountain 
 of Wyo. are stored with all manner of hidden quarries 
 and precious minerals, while yet clothed with grass 
 or studded with magnificent forests ; in her rich val- 
 leys lie the possibilities of a marvelous productive- 
 ness, needing but the help of the abundant waters 
 and the faithful care of t he husbandman to give them 
 early realization ; her boundless plains, vaster in ag- 
 gregate area than the whole of New York or even 
 Illinois, without thought or effort on the part of 
 man, afford nutritious summer and winter food for 
 countless flocks and herds ; vaster coal-fields than 
 manufacturing England can boast of, as well as 
 water-powers mighty and numberless, impatiently 
 await the enenry and genius of her sturdy sons to 
 make their force available for the production of 
 wonders in the world of the mechanic arts ; her cli- 
 mate, so mild that it permits the grazing of tender 
 flocks in winter, is yet cool, delightful and invigora- 
 ting in summer; and finally, here, at this grand ele- 
 vation, in the midst of scenery where the sublime 
 and the beautiful meet and mingle evermore, her 
 people established institutions and enacted laws 
 which have placed her at the fore in the march of 
 civilization. The material advancement of Wyo. has 
 not been more marked than its social progress. Like 
 all new communities on the line of great public im- 
 provements, ours has had much to contend with.

 shipping post for an extensive region of country, 
 including the Black Hills, was also seat and center 
 of the most appalling vice. Nightly brawls and mid- 
 day murders had their course until vigilance com- 
 mittees with most fearful measures were forced to 
 the front for their suppression. As the railroad push- 
 ed on its way, other towns were subjected to this 
 same visitation of outlaws of every sort, and suffered 
 in like manner until heroic remedies were again em- 
 ployed. To-day the face of things is changed. Thieves 
 but seldom venture, and road-agents are no longer 
 heard of. No village of New England is more orderly 
 than this " magic city" of the Plains and the others 
 which lie beyond. Most liberal provision is made for 
 the unfortunate classes of every kind. Obligatory 
 school attendance is enforced with tbe hearty ap- 
 proval of citizens. Libraries for the public use, with 
 literary aud musical associations for their support as 
 well as for the encouragement of intellectual and 
 aesthetic culture on the part of the people generally, 
 have been formed ; while at the capital has been es- 
 tablished and incorporated a Territorial "Academy 
 of Sciences, Aits, and Letters," the leading objects 
 of which are declared to be the encouragement of 
 historical and scientific research ; the development 
 of the practical industries of Wyo. and the enlarge- 
 ment of the Territorial library. None who for any 
 reason desire a footing in Wyo. need hesitate longer 
 on account of the social state. It is already good 
 aud is rapidly advancing." — Wyo. was organized as 
 a Territory, from parts of Dakoto, by act of con- 
 gress, July 25, 1868, and is the youngest member of 
 the Union. Pop. in 1870, 9,118; in 1880, 20,789 (of

 "Wyoming Vnlley, ra., a beautiful and re- 
 markably fertile tract in Luzerne co. It lies N.E. 
 and S.W., having an average breadth of 3 m. 
 and a length of 21 m. It is traversed by the 
 North branch of the Susquehanna R., has the 
 form of a very long oval or ellipse, and is enclosed 
 by ranges of rugged mountains abt. 1,000 ft. high. 
 The ridge on the S.E., called the Wyoming Mts., 
 is celebrated for its inexhaustible mines of anthra- 
 cite coal of the best quality. The river enters the 
 upper end of the valley through a bold moun- 
 tain-pass known as the Lackawannock Gap, and 
 passes out of its lower end, and through another 
 opening iu the same mountain called Nan ticoke Gap. 
 Near the center of the valley it has a rapid, called 
 the Wyoming Falls, and another at the lower gap, 
 called the Nanticoke Falls, several tributary streams 
 fall into it on each side, after traversing rock passes, 
 and forming beautiful cascades as they descend to 
 the plain. The massacre of Wyoming, which has 
 given the valley a melancholy prominence in history, 
 and which forms the theme of Campbell's "Ger- 
 trude of Wyoming," occurred on July 3, 1778.

 The Colorado R. crosses the N.W. corner, passing 
 through deep aud precipitous canons. The N.E. cor- 
 ner is watered by a tributary of the Rio San Juan, 
 the S. part by several affluents of the Gila, and the 
 S.W. corner by the Rio Santa Maria, a branch of 
 Bill Williams fork. The Colorado Chiquito, for a 
 considerable portion of its course walled in by pre- 
 cipitous canons, flows N.W. through the co. near the 
 centre, and empties into the Colorado. The greater 
 portion of the surface has an elevatiou of 5,000 or 6,- 
 000 ft. above the sea, and some parts rise much 
 higher. There are numerous mountain ranges, gener- 
 ally running N. and S. The N. part is mostly unex- 
 plored. The central and E. portions contain valuable 
 farming, pastoral, aud mining lands. The settlements 
 are in the S.W., in the mining regiousof Prescottaud 
 Wickenburg. The soil here is fertile, and pine forests 
 abound. Gold and silver are found. In the N.E. are 
 the Moqui Indians. The chief prod, in 1880 were 16,-

 the Mississippi 13 m. above Vicksburg. On the W. 
 side the Sunflower R. aud other navigable channels 
 pass from the Mississippi to the Yazoo. The region 
 adjacent to the Yazoo is very fertile ; on the W. side 
 it is flat and often swampy, but on the E. more often 
 bluffy or rolling. The name signifies " River of 
 Death" in the Choctaw language, alluding to the 
 malarial diseases which prevailed upon its shores.

 Yellowstone National Park is 65 m. 
 N. and S. by 55 m. E. and W., comprises 3,575 
 sq. m., and is in the N.W. corner of AVyoming. 
 It is by far the most marvelous collection of 
 geysers, hot springs, aud other volcanic pheno- 
 mena, upon the globe. This region was, by act 
 of congress passed in the winter of 1871-72, re- 
 served from settlement, and constituted a National 
 Park. Nearly all of it«is in Wyoming, a narrow strip 
 extending westward over into Idaho and Montana, 
 and northward into the latter Territory. " Its sur- 
 face" says Mr. Robert P. Porter "is mainly a high 
 rolling plateau, broken by several isolated groups of 
 mountains, while along its eastern border rises the 
 high and rugged Yellowstone Range. The mean ele- 
 vation of the Park above the sea is abt. 8,000 ft.; 
 while the highest mountains rise to 11,000 and 12,000 
 ft. Almost its whole extent, both of plains and 
 mountains, is covered with dense forests, so dense 
 that for days one may travel without seeing a land- 
 mark, and is guided only by the sun or the compass. 
 In these high plateaux and mountains, the Snake, 
 Yellowstone, Gallatin, and Madison have their ut- 
 most sources, whence they flow off to the arid plains 
 below. In these forests and mountain recesses still 
 remain in abundance the large game of the country 
 — moose, elk, deer, mountain sheep, bears, panthers, 
 and wild-cats. It is the hunter's paradise. Within 
 very recent geologic times, this region has been the 
 scene of remarkable volcanic activity. It is almost 
 entirely overlaid by volcanic rock, outflows of lava 
 from some copious rents now concealed. The coun- 
 try is honeycombed with hot springs: on the plains, 
 in the deepest recesses of the forest, on the moun- 
 tains, even on their loftiest summits, and even in the 
 beds of the lakes and streams, they are boiling and 
 bubbling. There are springs of water and of mud ; 
 there are calcareous, siliceous, sulphurous, and 
 iron springs everywhere and in infinite variety. 
 They agree in only one particular; they are all 
 hot. While there is scarcely a square mile of the 
 Park that does not contain more or less springs, 
 there are eertaiu localities where they are group- 
 ed iu large numbers, and show greater activity 
 than elsewhere. It is in these placers that geysers 
 are found. The principal of these localities are : 
 the White Mtn., or Mammoth, Hot Springs, the 
 Gibbon, Lower and Upper Geyser basins, the Shos- 
 hone basin, the Heart Lake group, and the Mud gey- 
 sers. The first named of these is near the N. boun- 
 dary of the park, on Gardiner's R. The springs 
 (there are here no ge3 r sers) are calcareous ; and the 
 waters deposit, freely, having built a hill a hundred 
 ft. or more in height, of a dazzling whiteness, except 
 where striped by bands of yellow, red, and green, 
 from the sulphur and iron deposited. The springs 
 issue from the top of this mound, the water flowing 
 down its sides, through a succession of basins, ail 
 beautifully bordered and scalloped. The Gibbon 
 basin, near the head of one of the branches of the 
 Madison R., is rather a congeries of groups of springs, 
 scattered over a large area. This basin contains a 
 number of geysers of considerable power, throwing 
 water to nearly or quite a hundred ft. The water con- 
 tains very little matter of any kind in solution ; and

 consequently the deposits are very slight. The Upper 
 and Lower Geyser basins are situated on the Firehole, 
 a head branch of the Madison R. They are abt. ten 
 miles apart ; but there are springs all along the valley 
 connecting them. All over the valley rise clouds of 
 steam from the springs, which, on frosty mornings, 
 forms a dense fog, tilling the vaileys. It is in these 
 basins that the greatest activity in the region is mani- 
 fested. They contain thousands of hot springs, from 
 the size of a horse's hoof to hot lakes covering sev- 
 eral acres. The geysers are numbered by the score. 
 They throw columns of water to various heights, 
 ranging from a few ft. only, up to 250 ft. Some of the 
 minor ones are perpetual spouters ; but most of 
 them, and all the powerful ones, play only at inter- 
 vals ranging from an hour to several days. One of 
 the most powerful, and perhaps the most interesting, 
 is that known as "Old Faithful," whose interval be- 
 tween eruptions is almost exactly fifty-eight minutes, 
 and which throws water to a height of 150 ft. An- 
 other most beautiful one, known as the "Beehive," 
 from the shape of its cone, plays at irregular inter- 
 vals, and throws water sometimes to a height exceed- 
 ing 200 ft. Another, the " Castle," has built about 
 itself an immense mass of deposit, from which or- 
 dinarily it throws an irregular mass of water 20 to 30 
 ft.; but on special occasions, it sends an enormous 
 column up, fully 250 ft. skywards. Of the many 
 geysers of this valley, eaeh-possessesan individuality; 
 but space forbids any further mention of them. Fur- 
 ther south, on the shore of Shoshone Lake, one of 
 the many beautiful sheets of water which diversify 
 the surface of the Park, is another group of springs 
 and geysers, possessing many unique features. The 
 Heart Lake group lies in a narrow belt along a gulch 
 leading down to Heart Lake. There are but two or 
 three geysers in this group, which is remarkable 
 ehiefly for the beauty of the deposits. The hot springs 
 and geysers are not the only wonders and attractions 
 of this remarkable region. To the lover of natural 
 scenery, it is almost without a peer in its mountains, 
 lakes, waterfalls, and canons. Yellowstone Lake, at 
 an elevation of 7,788 ft. above the sea, is the largest 
 body of water at that elevation on the continent. It 
 is 22 by 15 m. in extent with a maximum depth of 
 300 ft., and has a very irregular shape, with long 
 arms, reaching far inland, and enclosing mountains 
 in its grasp. It contains immense numbers of salmon 
 trout. The Upper Yellowstone, the ultimate source 
 of the Yellowstone R., flows into the lake from the 
 S.E. after a course of 25 m.; and from its N. end the 
 Yellowstone R. emerges in its course of abt. 600 m., 
 to the Missouri, which it joins on the border of Mon- 
 tana and Dakota. It is navigable to near the mouth 
 of the Big Horn, abt. 300 m. above the Missouri. The 
 Yellowstone Park also contains Shoshone, Lewis, and 
 Heart Lakes, beautiful sheets of water, lying hemmed 
 in by the hills, their deep blue color contrasting finely 
 with the black green of the forests which surround 
 them. At the distance of a day's drive down the 
 Yellowstone from the lake, the river, heretofore 
 calm and peaceful, becomes fretted by rapids, and 
 then suddenly plunges over a cliff 112 ft. in height. 
 A half-mile of quiet meandering follows, when the 
 great stream suddenly, and without warning, rolls 
 over a second cliff 300 ft. in height, into a deep gorge 
 1,000 ft. from top to bottom, down which it rushes 
 and roars in a madly tumultuous course. These are 
 the Great Falls and the Grand Canon of the Yellow- 
 stone. The latter is carved out of a volcanic plateau ; 
 its walls are the most rugged of cliffs, unscalable ex- 
 cept in one or two places. This canon extends pome 
 12 to 15 m. down the river, and is closely followed by 
 others, so that, throughout the balance of its course 
 in the Park, there are few points at which this stream 
 reaches the sunlight. Be6ides these, there is a fine 
 fall of more than a hundred ft. upon Tower creek. 
 
 a large branch of the Yellowstone, and other smaller 
 ones in various parts of the Park. The Park is not at 
 present easily accessible. It can be traversed only 
 on horseback and with a pack train ; and conse- 
 quently comparatively few have yet seen its won- 
 ders." It was visited in Aug., 1883, by President 
 Arthur. The best way to reach it is via the N.P.RR. to 
 Livingston, and its National Park Branch to Mam- 
 moth Hot Springs, where saddle ponies and guides 
 can be obtained for visiting the various points of 
 interest not reached by the stage line.

 Yosemite Valley, Vol., a valley or chasm situ- 
 ated in Mariposa co., on Merced R., 140 in. E. by S. 
 from San Francisco, but over 220 m. from that city by 
 any of the usually traveled routes. It is on the W. 
 slope of the Sierra Nevada, midway between its E. 
 and W. base, and nearly in the center of the State, 
 measuring N. and S. The valley is a nearly level area, 
 abt. 6 m. in length, and from a half to a mile in width, 
 and almost a mile in perpendicular depth below the 
 general level of the adjacent region, and inclosed in 
 frowning granite walls rising with almost unbroken 
 and perpendicular faces to the dizzy height of from 
 3,000 to 6,000 ft. From the brow of the precipices in 
 several places spring streams of water which, in sea- 
 sons of rains and melted snow, form cataracts of a 
 beauty and magnificence surpassing anything known 
 in mountain scenery. " The principal features of the 
 Yosemite," says Professor J. D. Whitney, "and those 
 by which it is distinguished from all other known 
 valleys, are : 1. The near approach to verticality of 
 its walls ; 2. Their great height, not only absolutely, 
 but as compared with the width of the valley itself; 
 and 3. The small amount of debris at the base of 
 these gigantic cliffs. These are»the great characteris- 
 tics of the Yosemite region, throughout its whole 
 length ; but, besides these, there are many other 
 striking peculiarities and features, both of sublimity 
 and beauty, which can hardly be surpassed, if equaled 
 by those of any mountain valleys in the world. Water- 
 falls in the vicinity of the Yosemite, surpassing in 
 beauty many of the best known and most visited in 
 Europe, are actually left entirely unnoticed by 
 travelers, because there are so many other objects of 
 interest to be visited that it is impossible to find time 
 for them all." The valley is almost one vast flower- 
 garden. Plants, shrubs, and flowers of every hue cover 
 the ground like a carpet ; the eye is dazzled by the 
 brilliancy of the color, and the air is heavy with the 
 fragrance of a million blossoms. Trees of several 
 centuries' growth raise their tall heads heavenward, 
 yet, beside and in comparison with the vast perpen- 
 dicular clefts of rocks, they look like daisies beside a 
 tall pine. On every side are seen the beautiful and 
 many colored manzauita and trees of such shape 
 and variety as are nowhere seen in the Atlantic 
 States. The Yosemite was discovered in the spring 
 of 1851 by a party under the command of Captain Bol- 
 ing, in pursuit of a band of predatory Indians, who 
 made it their stronghold, considering it inaccessible 
 to the whites. By an act of congress passed in 1864, 
 the Yosemite Valley and the Mariposa Grove of Big 
 Trees were granted to the State of California upon 
 the express condition that they shall be kept "for 
 public use, resort, and recreation," and shall be 
 " inalienable for all time." One of the most attractive 
 features of the Yosemite is the fall made by the de- 
 scent of Yosemite Creek down the wall on the N. side 
 of the valley. The vertical elevation of the edge of this 
 fall is 2,600 feet.but the descent is not in one unbroken 
 sheet. There is first a vertical fall of 1,500 feet, then a 
 
YOU

 YRE 
 
 descent of 626 feet in a series of cascades, and finally 
 one plunge of 400 feet on to a low talus of rocks at 
 the foot of the precipice. The body of water is not 
 large, and it decreases considerably as the season 
 advances, becoming very small in ordinary years by 
 the end of August. The width of the stream above 
 the fall is usually, in June and July, about 20 feet, 
 and its depth perhaps 2 feet. The beauty and grandeur 
 of this fall, however, taken in connection with the 
 majesty of its surroundings, give it a claim to be 
 ranked among the most remarkable natural objects 
 in the world. To reach the Yosemite Valley the 
 CP. RR. should be left at Madera, where all trains 
 are met by first-class Concord coaches in charge of 
 competent drivers. The distance to be traveled is 
 abt. 75 m. each way.

 broken mountains, and is generally destitute of 
 water. A part of the year these table lands are cov- 
 ered with grass. The climate in summer is very hot 
 and dry ; in winter it is mild and healthful. Gold, sil- 
 ver, copper and lead are found in lodes near the 
 Colorado, and there are extensive deposits of copper 
 along the S. border. Cap., Yuma. Val. of taxable

 Yuma, Kan., p.o.. Cloud co. 
 
 Yu'uias, atribe of Indians, settled on both sides 
 of the Colorado R., near its junction with the Gila, 
 calling themselves the " Sons of the River." They 
 are also termed Cuchans. Since they came under 
 the dominion of the U. States they have been faithful 
 to the Americans with the exception of a short rising 
 in 1853 ; but owing to the vicinity of Fort Yuma, the 
 women have been completely debauched, so that the 
 whole tribe is now diseased and rapidly dying out. 
 Their number is actually scarcely 900.

 Zuni', N.Mcx., a range of mountains lving be- 
 tween lat. 35° and 36°, Ion. 108° and 109° W. Fort 
 Wingate is at its N.W. end, and old Fort Wingate 
 at its S.E. Its length from N.W. to S.E. is 45 m.; its 
 breadth is 20 m. It rises 3,000 ft. above the surround- 
 ing country, which has a general altitude of 6,500 
 ft. Its summit is broadly arched, and is clothed with 
 timber. The proportions and scenery of the range 
 are not imposing, and it is overtopped by the neigh- 
 boring volcanic peak of Mt. Taylor, but it is of 
 great interest to the geologist on account of its sim- 
 plicity of structure and isolation. From this range 
 issues the Zufii, a small river, which flows S.W. arid 
 joins the Little Colorado in Apache co., Ariz. On 
 the N. side of this river, in Socorro co., N.Mex., is 
 an Indian p. v. noted for the primitive structure of 
 its houses and the pastoral habits of its population, 
 said to number abt. 1,800. There is a Catholic church.
