The Publisliers, in issuing the present worllf desire to briefly state some of the causes which have induced them to present it for public patronage. First, the Reasons that demand a Neic Gazetteer of the United States. 1. Since the census taken in 1840, such extensive and essential changes have taken place in our vast republic, that one Avould scarcely recognise the present, by the most faithful picture of that ten years ago. Within that time there have been added to the territory of the republic, by annexation, conquest, and purchase, 833,970 square miles ; and our title to a region covering 341,463 square miles, which before properly belonged to us, but was claimed and partially occupied by a foreign power, has been established by negotiation and been brought within our acknowledged boundaries. By such means the area of the United States has been extended during the past ten years, from 2,055,163 to 3,230,572 square miles, without including the great lakes which lie upon our northern border or the bays which indent our Atlantic and Pacific shores. Five new states have been admitted to the Union, and five new territories organized within the same period. Of course old Gazetteers can not faithfully give the present condi- tion of the country. 2. Another reason for a new work is, that existing ones are inaccessible to the masses, by reason of their size and extravagant price, br are small, imperfect in th.eir details and range of subjects, and entirely local in their interest. While the publishers do not claim entire perfection, in the present work, they yet have endeavored most earnestly, in all of these re- spects, to meet the demands for a new Gazetteer. Second, the Plan of this Work. The plan is simple ; indeed, the design of such a woi*k suggests the plan to be pursued in its compilation. It is not a work of biography, nor of history, nor of science, nor of art, but one descriptive of the country as it is, es- pecially of its geographical and statistical facts ; also, with such reference to the commercial and political relations of the principal places named, as may be desirable or practically useful. 4 PREFACE. Concise and comprehensive in its plan and composition, the publishers be- lieve it is just such a book as the people desire in a Gazetteer of the United States. Third, tlie Reasons that especially commend this Book to the Favor of the Public. 1. The returns of the late census giving the population of towns, have been procured at considerable cost, from the department at Washington in advance of the publication of the official reports, and are accessible in this work before they can be had through any other source. 2. It contains Thirtij-one State Maj)s, executed at great expense, and which, for the first time, are introduced into a Gazetteer. The maps are divided into counties, and will be o^ invaluable service to persons desirous of cor- rect information of every part of the country. 3. Another new feature of this work is the presentation of beautifully en- graved and very expensive Maps of Fourteen of the principal Cities of the Union. These must prove a rare acquisition, to those desirous of becoming familiar with the topography of our great and most important cities. 4. The price of the present volume being only one haf that of works of a similar character, places it within the means of the multitude ; and the pub- lishers are confident they will cheerfully respond to efibrts to meet their wants, by extending to this Gazetteer a liberal patronage. Indeed, the Maps of States and Cities alone would cost, by ordinary purchase, more than the price of the whole book. New York, June 1, 1853. '}*.B^ EXPLANATIONS AND REFERENCES.

The "United States of America" is the most interesting and important division of tlie western hemisphere. Comprising a territory equal in extent . to that of iialf of the kingdoms and principalitiesof Europe eomhined, with a i)opulation exceeded by but three or perhaps four of tlic European states, and numbering scarce three fourths of a century since it broke loose from the leading-strings of the motlier-country, j tlie American republic stands unpar- alelled in the liistory of tlie rise and growth of nations. The territory of the United States lies between the meridians of 67'^ and 125° longitude west from Grecnwicli, and the par- allels 24° and 49'-' of north latitude. It is bounded by the Atlantic ocean on the east, and the Pacific on the west; by the British possessions on the north, and the republic of Mexico and the great gulf of tliat name on tiie soutli. It com|)rise8 an area of over 3,200,000 square miles. The frontier Tine has a length of about 10,000 miles, and about 5,000 miles of sea and lake coast. Physical Asi-ect. — A territory of such vast extent must of course comprise a great variety of surface, soil, and climate. A large proportion of it is not only susceptible of cultivation, but has a fertile soil capable of supporting a dense popidation. Tiierc are but few barrens, and no great deserts, except one in the territory of Utah. It is numerously threaded by navigable streams, besides immense lak^s, which not only give fertility to their borders, but are available in bearing the gifts of the soil to domestic and foreign markets, and in bringing back to tlie inhabitnnts tlie products and luxuries of other climes. Mountains. — The territory of the United States is traversed by several chains of moun- tains. Tiie Allegany, or Appalaehian range, on the Atlantic side, runs in a northeasterly direction, from tlie nortliern jiart of Georgia to tlie gulf and river of St. Lawrence, stretching along in uniform ridges, at tiie distance of from 2.50 to 80 miles from the seacoast, and following its general directions. It occupies in breadth a space of from 60 to 120 miles, and separates the waters which run into the Atlantic ocean, from those whicli flow into the Mississippi and its tributaries. Tlie highest elevation in tiiis range, and tiie most prominent in the Atlantic states, is Black Mountain, in the western part of North Carolina; it is 6,476 feet in height. The general elevation is from 2,000 to ;i,000 feet above the level of the sea. The Roeky mountains, situated about 800 miles from the Pacific coast, are on a much grander scale than the Alleganies. Their base is about .SOO miles in breadth, and their loftiest summits, covered with everlasting snow, rise to the height of fi'om 12,000 to 18,000 feet above the level of the sea. These vast chains may be considered as a continuation of the Cordilleras in Mexico. The Sierra Nevada is a range of mountains extending through Cali- fornia, and from these branch off to the northwest the Cascade range, which traverses Oregon into the British territories. Both these ranges become more elevated as they extend farther north, where some of their peaks enter the regions of perpetual snow. Still farther ■west is the Coast range, running almost parallel to, and at a short distance from the Pacific coast. Other minor ranges will be found described in the states in which they are situated. Bays.— Tlie principal bays and sounds on the Atlantic border are— Paesamaquoddy bay, ■which lies between the state of Maine and the British province of New Brunswick ; Massa- 8 DESCRIPTION OF THE UNITED STATES. chusetts bay, between Capes Ann and Cod ; Long Island sound, between Long Island and the coast of Connecticut; Delaware bay, which sets up between Cape May and Cape Hen- lopen, separating the states of New Jersey and Delaware ; Chesapeake bay, which commu- nicates with the ocean between Cape Charles and Cape Henry, extending in a northern direction for 200 miles, through the states of Virginia and Maryland ; Albermarle sound and Pamlico sound, on the coast of North Carolina. There are no large bays or sounds on the coast of the gulf of Mexico. On the Pacific coast, however, there are several excellent bays, but the principal, and only one necessary to mention, is the bay of San Francisco, in the newly-acquired domain of California. Lakes. — The chain of inland seas, on the northern boundary, are unsurpassed in any country for size and utility. Their dimensions are as follows : — I-ensth Breadth Circumference.

Lakes^Superior, Huron, Erie, and Ontario, have the boundary between the United States and the British provinces, running directly through their centre. The other lakes of any magnitude in the United States are Lakes George, Oneida, Otsego, Skaneateles, Owasco, Cayuga, Seneca, Crooked, Canandaigua, Honeoye, Chautauque, and Canesis, all in New York ; Moosehead, Chesuncook, Pemadumcook, Moosetogmaguntic, Sebago, and Schoodic, in Maine ; Winnipiseogee, in New Hampshire ; and Memphremagog, between Canada and Ver- mont In Louisiana, are the great lakes of Pontchartrain, Borgne, Ouacha, Grand, and others formed by the waters of the Mississippi ; Bodeau, Cadoe, Bistinoe, Caunisnia, Bayou- Pierre, Spanish, Black, and others formed by the Red river and its branches. In Wisconsin, is Lake Winnebago, formed by Fox river. There are several extensive lakes and everglades also in Florida, of which Okeechobee is the principal. In California are the Tulare lakes, and the Pyramid lake, in the centre of which stands a natural granite pyramid. There is also the Great Salt lake in the territory of Utah. Rivers. — Tlie rivers of the United States are numerous, and some of them among the most important, and affording facilities for inland navigation and trade unparalleled in any section of the globe. They may be divided into four great classes: 1st. The streams which rise on the east side of the Allegany mountains, and flow into the Atlantic ocean ; 2d, Those south of tlie Allegany range, which discharge themselves into the gulf of Mexico ; 3d. The Mississippi and its wide tributaries, which drain the waters of the vast valley included between the Rocky and Allegany ranges ; and 4th. The rivers which, rising on the western declivity of the Rocky mountains, direct their course to the Pacific ocean. The Mississippi is the largest river in the United States, and one of the noblest in the world. Its course, in conjunction with its great auxiliary, the Missouri, is about 4,200 miles. The Mississippi rises west of Lake Superior, in latitude 47° 47' north, amid lakes and swamps, in a dreary and desolate region, and after a course southeast for about 500 miles, reaches the falls of the St. Anthony. Thence it flows in a soutlieasterly and then a southerly direction, and discharges its waters into the gulf of Mexico. The principal tributaries of the Mississippi from the east are the Wisconsin, the Illinois, and the Ohio, which is itself formed by the junction of the Allegany and Monongahela, at Pittsburgh. The chief tributaries of the Ohio are the Wabash, the Cumberland, and the Tennessee. The principal tributaries of the Mississippi from the west, are the St. Peter's, the Des Moines, the Missouri, the Arkansas, and the Red rivers. The Missouri enters the Mississippi river about eighteen miles above St Louis, after a course of 3,217 miles, and being much the longer and larger stream of the two, should properly carry its name to the gulf of Mexico, but the Mississippi, having been first discovered and explored, has retained its name through its whole length. The Missouri is formed of numerous branches, which rise among the Rocky mountains, between the parallels of 42'^ and 48'-' north latitude, the principal of which are the Yellow Stone, the Nebraska or Platte, and the Kansas. The most remote are the Jeft'erson, Madison, and Gallatin rivers. The only obstruction that occurs to its navigation is at the Great Falls, a distance of 2,000 miles from the Mississippi. The principal rivers east of the Alleganies, emptying into the Atlantic, are the Penobscot, Connecticut Hudson, Delaware, Susquehannah, Potomac, James, Roanoke, Great Pedee, Santee, Savannah, and Altamaha. The principal rivers which rise south of the Alleganies, and fall into the gulf of Mexico, are the Appalachicola, which is formed by the junction of the Chattahoochee and Flint rivers ; the Mobile, which is formed of the Alabama and Tombigbee, which unite near latitude 31° after a separate course of several hundred miles, and the Colorado, Brazos, and Rio Grande del Norte, in Texas. The latter stream, and the Gila which empties into the gulf of California, nearly form the DESCRIPTION OF THE UNITED STATES. boundary line between the United States and Mexico. The rivers flowing from the Rocky mountains to the Pacific are, the Columbia, in Oregon, •wliieh rises near latitude 65° north, and falls iuto the Pacific ocean, after a course of 1,500 miles. Its principal tributaries are Clarke, Lewis, Colville, and Willamette rivers. The Colorado, in California, after a course of 1,000 miles, empties in the gulf of California. The other rivers in California are the Sacramento and San Joaquin, which empty into the bay of San Francisco, and the Buena- ventura, which empties into the bay of Monterey. Climate. — The United States, though lying within the temperate zone, embraces almost every variety of climate. In the northern parts, the winters are long and severe ; snow often falls to the depth of three or four feet, and the cold is so piercing as to oblige the inhabitants to make very diligent provision against it. Spring returns here in April, and the heat is great in summer. In the southern parts of the country, snow is seldom seen, ice is rarely formed in the rivers, and those fruits which shrink from a northern climate, and flourish only in warm regions, are scattered over the soil. In Georgia, the inhabitants may load their tables with oranges, lemons, and other exquisite fruits that grow in their gardens and groves, while in parts of Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont, even peaches will not flourish. Between these extremities, as in Virginia, Kentucky, Missouri, Illinois, and Cali- fornia, there is a region adapted to the wine-grape, 'which thrives best in places removed from both the torrid and frigid zones. Public Lands. — The public lands form a very important feature of the national wealth. The property of the soil within the limits of the United States, not owned by the several states, or by individuals, is vested in the general government. They are principally located in the western and southwestern states and territories, and in California and Oregon. The following table exhibits the number of acres of the public domain that have been sold, and remaining unsold and unappropriated, to the first of July, 1852: — Acres sold. Acres unsold.

It has all the useful, as well as all the precious metals. Iron is very generally diffused, and is very abundant. Coal, both bituminous and anthracite, is found in great quantities, especially in Pennsylvania, Virginia, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, and Tennessee. Rich copper mines exist in Michigan and some other states, and lead mines in Missouri and Illinois. The gold mines of California seem inexhaustible ; quicksilver mines have also been profitably worked there. Granite, marble, and other building stones, are found in every section of the country. Salt springs abound in many parts of the Union, and large quantities of salt are manufactured in New York, Western Pennsylvania, Western Virginia, Ohio, and Illinois ; it is also made from sea-water in some parts of New England. Fisheries. — The fisheries of the United States are extensive and valuable. About 250 vessels and about 12,000 seamen and landsmen are employed in the whale-fishery. The products of this fishery amount to from 400,000 to 500,000 barrels of oil annually. The cod- fishery is pursued oflf the coasts of New England, and as far north as Labrador, and about 100,000 tons of shipping are thus employed. The mackerel fishery employs about 60,000 tons of shipping. Commerce. — In the extent and prosperity of its commerce, the United States is second only to Great Britain. There is no part of the globe to which American nnerchantmen do not find their way ; and the coasting and inland trade is carried on to a far greater extent. The foreign exports are confined principally to agricultural products, with naval stores, timber, and other productions of the forest. The imports are European manufactures, principally of the finer descriptions, and the productions of the tropics, as sugar, coffee, spices, wines, Ac.

Near the i^ulf of Mexico the coun- try is low and level, embraciuu: nunienms swamps and savannas. A large portion of tlir upland, toward the centre, consists orplnc-barrens, thiidy wooded, or cov- ered with coarse grass. The soil here is generally sundy and thin. The central part of the state consists of a table-land, with a deep, rich, productive soil. Toward the north, the surface Ijecomes mountainous and hilly, beyond which lies the valley of the Tennessee, where tlie soil is highly fertile. Mountains.— Vhe Cumberland or Appalachian range extends into this state from the northeast, and is be- lieved to abound in mineral wealth. Uivers and Bays. — TIk^ princij)al rivers are, the Ala- bama, Tombigbee, Black Warrior, Coosa, Tallapoosa, Tennessee, Chattahoochee, Perdido, Cahavvba, and the Mobile. The chief bays are. Mobile, and Bon Secour, which are situated in the southwest part of the state. Islands. — At the mouth of Mobile bay is a chain of low islands,, the three principal of which are, Dauphine, Hurricane, and Horn. Climate. — The climate of the uplands is generally salubrious, with mild winters, and pleasant summers ; but in the southern parts, and along the borders of the streams, it is imhealthy. The extremes of the seasons greatly vary. Those portions of the state lying along the gulf may be regarded as sub-tropical, while those situated in the more elevated and northerly parts, are more or less suljject to excessive fi-o=ts, and abiding snows. Although the navigation of the rivers is some" times impeded by ice, it is more frequently the case that it is suspended by excessive droughts. Productive Resources. — No part of this state will ad- mit of the profitable cultivation of the sugar-cane, un- less we except a narrovi^ strip alons it.* extreme border on the southwest. The stapli> produets are cotton, rice, tobacco, wheat, oats, potatoe,*, ami Indian com. Indigo was formerly ranked among the f tajile eiops, but it.s cul- tivation has long since ceased. The laniH under culti- vation, in 1850, were 41,964. Mines nf ^.,1,1, .^h er, and iron, are successfully worked in llie comity cif Ran- dolph. Gold also occurs in Tallapoosa, Coosa, Tal- ladega, and Chambers. Silver is found in Tallapoosa ; iron in Benton, Clarke, and Talladega ; nitre in Blount ; and lead in the bed of the Tennessee, on Muscle shoal. Coal abounds in Tuscaloosa, and on the Cahawba, and Black Warrior ; marble, granite, limestone, &c., in Clarke, which also produces salt. Manufactures.— There are upward of 1,000 mnnufac- tniing establishments in this state, producing $500 and more each annually. There are sevend cotton factories established, though they produce only the more com- mon fabrics required for domestic use. Tanneries, flouring, and saw mills, are numerous ; and the prod- wets of mdividual industry in the mechanic arts are con- siderable. Railroads and Canals. — There are as yet but aboiit 1.50 miles of railroad com]>leted in .Mabania. But new lines are projected, and some of tliem will be carried through at an early day. The i)rincipid canals are, the Muscle Shoal canal, thirty six miles long, and the Huntsville canal, sixteen miles. Commerce. — The foreign trade of Alabama (mostly exports of domestic produce) amounts to about $1'.2,000,000 annually. The shipping engaged in the foreign trade is about 100,000 tons, and about as niuch more in the coasting-trade, principally vrith the northern Atlantic ports, Educatio7i. — Of the educational institutions in Ala- bama, the university at Tuscaloosa, founded in 1828, is is the principal ; besides this are. La Grange college, founded in 1831 ; Spring-Hill college, founded in 1830 ; and Howard college, at Marion, founded in 1841. A law-school is attached to the university, and theological seminaries to Spring-Hill and Howard colleges. There are in the state about 200 academies and grammar- schools, aiul about 1,000 primary and common schools. Pop«!«(io7i.— In 1800, estimated at 2,000; in 1810, at 20,845; in 1820, it was 127,901; in 1830, 309,527; in 1840, 590,756 ; in 1850, 771,672. Number i)f slaves in 1820,41,879; in 1830, 117,549 ; in 1840, 253,532 ; in 1850, 342,892. Government.— The legislative power is vested in two branches, a senate, and house of representatives. The house of representatives consists of 100 members, elected for two years ; the senate consists of 33 members, elected for four years, one half retiring every two years. The executive power is vested in a governor, who is elected by the people for two years ; and is eligible four years out of six. State election tirst Mon- day in August. The legislature meets biennially at Montgomery. The judical power is vested in a su- pri-me court, of three justices ; in a court of chancei-y, of three chancellors, the state being divided into three chancery districts ; in circuit courts, each held by one judge, the state being divided into eight circuits, and such inferior courts as the legislature may establish. The judges of the supreme and circuit courts, and the chancellors, are elected by a joint vote of the two houses of the general assembly, for six years. The right of suftrage is possessed by every white male citi- zen, of twenty-one years of age, who has resided within the state one year preceding an election, and the last three months within the district in which he offers his vote. History. — The territory of Alabama was formerly held by France, as a part of Louisiana, its first per- manent settlement by Europeans having been estab- lished by D'Iberville, in 1702, on Mobile bay. Subse- quently, four degrees of latitude, of its most northerly part, fell into the possession of the English, and was embraced within the grant to the Georgia colony, in 1732. After the treaty of Paris, in 1763, when Florida was ceded to Great Britain, and the French restricted to the western side of the Mississippi, the southern part of the present state of Alabama was attached to the western division of Florida, the northern division being claimed by Georgia, as a part of the original grant, which embraced the region between the rivers Savan- nah and Altamaha, extending from their head waters westward to the " South sea." In 1781, Governor Gal- vez, of Louisiana, invaded and conquered West Florida, which, tosether with a part of East Florida, then hold by the British, once more fell into the hands of Spain, in 1783, who held it until 1798, at which time, all that I)ortion of Georgia south of the Altamaha was ceded to the United States. By act of Congress, subsequent to the adjustment of the boundary between Louisiana and Florida, and our then newly-acquired territory, north of the thirty-fir.i anil Alabama, called the "Mississippi Terri- tory." lu 180J, i:ession was made, by Georgia, to tlie ITnited i~tates, of all her territory on the wes^ between Chattahoochee and Mississippi rivers, as far up the for- mer as near the thirty-thim parallel of latitude, and then to latitude thirty-five degrees by the existing line between Georgia and Alabama. In this condition the Mississippi territory remained until 1817, when it was organized by act of Congress into two states, Missis- sippi and Alabama. In 1819, the inhabitants of the lat- ter formed its constitution, and in 1820 it was admitted into the Union as an indt^pi lulent state. Alabam.v p. t., Genesee co., N.

Few inland cities combine so many natural ad- vantages for trade, iniproved by such extensive and costly public W(u-ks, as Albany, "it is the terminus of the Erie canal, and the ereat chnm of railroads which connects the central counties of New York, the great lakes, and their vast shores. The Green Mountain state sends its productions to Albany through Lake Champlain and the Champlain canal. Some of the products brought through these channels, pass through Massachusetts to Boston by railroad ; more are whirled in a few hours to New York, by the gigantic Hudson River railroad, which now sweeps majestically through the solid mountains and rocky lieadliinds wliich skirt that mighty stream. Steamboats, schooners, and sloops, also convey large cargoes to and fi-om the towns along the route.

Boston Citv, the capital of Massachusett-B, and scat of justice of Sutiblk co., occupies a peninsula and other adjacent points, at the head of Massachusetts bay. The original town was confined to the peninsula, but this, although enlarged by artificial means, has long since proved too narrow for the growing city, which, passing the barriers throvni around it by nature, now embraces, independently of the populous towns and callages that are its oft'spring, the triple division of " Old Boston," " South Boston," and " East Boston." The " Neck" was formerly the only avenue from the town to the main land, but it is now united by bridges, and other avenues, to Charlestown, Cambridge, South Boston, and other surrounding points. From the west side of the city. Western avenue is continued to Brookline, on the op- posite side of Charles river bay, by a costly dam one mile and a half in length, and 100 feet broad. Proceed- ing from the middle of this, on vi-liich are several tide- mills, a second dam divides the bay into two spacious basins. Several of the Boston railroads also enter the city, by brid^i^s built expressly for that purpose. The harljur extends from Nantasket to the city, and spreads fmrn Chelsea and Nahant to Hingham, contain- ing about fev.iity-tive ."square miles. It is studded with upward of fifty isliindn, or rocks, and receives the waters from tin' Mystic, Charles, Neponset, and Manat- ticut rivers, witli .•several other smaller streams. One of the most remarkable features connected with the harbor, is the costly and splendid wharves. These marks of coniniercial enterprise and prosperity are about one huiiilrcd in number, and of various dimen- sions. I.onq vbarfis 1.800 feet Ioiil', and i'llO fret wide ; Central wliarl. l.:i',iT I'.vt Ion-, and i:.li f-.i wj.l.- ; India wbai-r, 'JHI f'Tt luny. and iVnin 24(1 to -JMI f.vt wi.lr ; and Cuuimerdfil wharlMs 1,100 tWt lun^, and lllo tr.'t wide. These, like most of the others, are lined with extensive and magnificent warehouses, constructed of the most substantial matcnals. Another valuable acquisition is Boston Common, a pleasant park of about fifty acres, situated at the soutli- westerly slope of Beacon hill. It is pleiisantly diversi- fied with knolls, avenues, fountains, a small lake, or pond, and trees, some of the latter being intere>ting rehcs of colonial and revohitionary times. The com- mon is surrounded by an iron fence, over one mile in extent. Between the common and Charles river bay. lies the Botanic (iardcn. a bi-jnitiful and tasteful en- closure. On the n.jith •■idr nl' the common, and at the summit of the liill, stands the statehouse, an elegant structure. 173 feet in !en;;th. 01 feet in depth, aiid"l20 feet in height. Tlie top of the dome is 230 feet above tide-water. The view from the top of the statehouse is very extensive and variegated ; perhaps nothing in the country i.s superior to it. To the east appears "the liay and harbor, interspersed with beautiful islands ; and in the distance beyond, the wide ocean. To the north the eye is met by Charlestown, with its interesting and memorable Iieights, of Bunker Hill, crowned with the monument, 220 fi'et in height, and the navy -yard of the United Stjites ; the towns of Chelsea, Maiden, and Med- ford, and other villages, and the natural forests ming- ling in the distant horizon. To the west, is a fine view of the Charles river and bay, the city of Cambridge, rendered venerable for the university, now about two hundred years old ; of the highly-cultivated towns of . Brighton, Brookline, and Newton ; and to the south is the city of Roxbury, which seems to be only a con- tinuation of Boston, and which is rapidly increasing. Dorchester, a rich, agricultural toivn, with Milton and Quincy beyond ; and farther south, the Blue hills, at the distance of eight miles, which seem to bound the pros- pect. Faneuil Hall, which is justly styled the " cradle of American liberty," was originally built in 1740, for a town-hall and market-house. It has been enlarged and beautified on several occasions, and will always be a place of historical interest to the lovers of hberty. Ad- joining it on the east is Quincy Market, one of the most splendid and commodious edifices of the kind in the country. It is constructed of granite, or sienite. 540 feet in length, 50 feet wide, and two stories high. The countiiouse, merchants' exchange, postoffice, custom- house, ftlassachusetts gcncral^ospital, the old south meetinghouse, Park-street, Brattle-street, and Trinity churches, the Tremont house. Revere house, the Atliajneum, the jail, Society of Natural History, the houses of industry, correction, and reformation, are among other objects of interest. The water-works may be regarded as one of the most important of the recent improvements. By a series of pipes and reservoirs, water is conveyed to all parts of the city proper, and East and South Boston, from Long Pond, or Lake Co- chituate, a distance of nearly 20 miles. It will sup- ply 10,()00,000 gallons of water daily, and cost about $5,000,000. Railroads diverge from this city in various directions, connecting it with Plymouth, New Bedford, Fall River, Providence, Stonington, New York (via Worcester, Springfield. Hartford, New-Haven) ; with Albany, via Worcester and Springfield; with Vermont, via Fitch- burgh ; also, with Lake Winnipisiogee and the White Mountains, in New Hampshire, via Nashua, Concord, and Meredith Bridge ; also, via Havrrliill, Exeter, and Dover; with Lawrence, via Lowell and Manchester; with Augusta, Me., via Salem, Newburyport, Ports- DKHith, Portland, and Bath. Boston is pre-eminently distinguished for its efforts in behalf of education. Its public schools are unrivalled in excellence, and it numbers among its citizens some of the most munificent patrons of learning, literature, and science ; which, with its many eminentliterary and philosophical societies, has led to its being honored with the title of the " Athens of America." Mount Auburn, a beautilul cemetery, belonging prin- cipally to Boston, is picturesquely situated near" Cam- bridge, about five miles distance. Within this interests ing ''city of the dead" rest the reftains of many of the illustrious sons of New England. The population of Boston in 1700, was 7,000 ; in 1722. 10,.'jfi7; in 1765, 15,520; in 1790, 18,033; in 1800, 24,937; in 1810, 33,250; in 1820, 43,298; in 1830, 61,392; in 1840, 93,383; in 1850, 136,657.

The city is built on a plain, which, as it retreats from the water, rises into an elevation that affords a fine prospect of the surrounding country, and thence spreads away into undulations and hills. It is well laid out with handsome houses. In the last few years especially, a large number of substantial brick stores and dwellings, have added much to the ap- pearance and wealth of the place. The Ilousatonio railroad, traversing the valley of Housatonic river, meets the West Stockbridge railroad in Massachusetts, which is the connecting link between Albany and Boston. Sev- eral vessels sail from this port, and it would probably carry on a more extensive foreign commerce, if the harbor was not obstructed by a sand-bar, 13 feet below . high-water mark. A bridge 1,236 feet long extends across the harbor, admitting vessels through a draw. The population in 1810, was 572 ; in 1820, — ; in 1830, 2,803 ; in 1840, 4,.570 ; in 1850, 7,560.

Y., the second in population in the state, is situated at the west end of Long Island, on the easterly side of East river, opposite the city of Nmv York. Its surface was originally rough ami 1)1(j1v.-I], Imr li;is .'-inc.' Ii.'cn graded sufficiently low to 1)1^ ])iiss(>y no other city, except, perhaps, by those of New York, arc of all orders of architx^cture, from the chaste and simple Grecian, to the pure Gothic, with lofty walls, richly-sculptured columns, and tinted windows. The literary advantages of Brooklyn are also numerous and valuable. Libraries, lectures, scientific, and literary societies; and schools of various grades, are flourishing and well supported. The hariior of Brooklyn is deep, spacious, and sufficient for any number of vessels. Along the southwest front, opposite Governor's Island, extends the Atlantic dock, a deep and spacious basin, of 42 acres, which is surrounded by piers and bulk- heads, containing a large number of substantial ware- houses, built of stone. Other warehouses and factories of various kinds line the wharves along East river, from the Atlantic dock to Wallabout bay. A few miles south of the city, beyond Gowanus bay, lies the beautiful and enchanting Greenwood cemetery, which, for combina- tion of romantic nature with splendid art, is probably surpassed by no necropolis in the worid. The Long Island railroad terminates in Brooklyn, at the South ferry. The population in 1800, was 3,298; in 1810, 4,402; in 1820, 7,175; in 1830, 12,042; in 1840, 36,233 in 1850, 96,8.50.

Y., is situated at the confluence of Buftalo creek with the east end of Lake Erie, and at the western terminus of the Erie canal, by which route it is 363 miles distant from Alliany. It occupies a slope, chiefly on the north Bide of the creek, which is here deep enough for vessels drawing eight feet of water. The ttivets are generally reg:ular, the buildings substantial, and many of them imposing. The longest and broadist is Main street, the Broadway of Buffalo, on each side of which, for more than two miles, extend hnes of stores and other.build- ings. From the top of the elevation above the city, ap- pears a wide panorama of the lake. Black Rock basin, Niagara river, the Erie canal, and the surrounding country. Buttalo is the offspring of the Erie canal, and ever since the completion of that stupendous work, luis con- tinued to increase in population, wealth, and impor- tance. It is the gate through which the vast commerce of the great lakes and the western states passes on its way to New York and the east. A great chain of railroads binds Buffalo to New York, Boston, Albany, and the richest portion of the Empire state along the course of the Erie canal ; and another, traversing the valleys of the Susquehanna and Delaware, links it with New Jersey, New York city, and Philadelphia. By either of these routes, the passenger may reach Buffalo from New York, a distance of about 500 miles, in less than 20 hours. The Lake-shore railroad connects it with the vast network of railroads in the western states. The harbor of Buflalo was foixnerly impeded by sands which the winds and storms of Lake Erie de- posited at its entrance. By the construction of a mole and pier, 1,500 feet long, this obstacle is removed, and vessels drawingeight feet of water, now enter the creek. Here, in the winter season, a largo number of vessels, steamboats, ships, schooners, and canal-boats, are con- gregated and protected from ice and storms. Several hundred schooners, and a number of steamboats, n&vi- gatc Lake Erie from Buffalo to the ditt'erent ports on its shores. A large amount of capital is invested in manu- factures. The population in 1810, was 1,508; in 1820,2,095; in 1830, 8,653 ; in 1840, 18,213; in 1850, 42.261. Buffalo, t, Annstrong co.. Pa. Pop. 2.182. Buffalo, p. t.. Union co., Pa. Pop. 1,346.

It is pleas- antly situated on a beautiful bay of Champlain, and commands the principal trade of the county and of the lake. To this point flow a large portion of the products of the Green Mountain state,"and thence they are con-, veyed by railroad, steamboats, or other vessels, to Troy, Albany, New York, St. John, and other places. Rising from the water by a gentle acclivity, and laid out in regular streets, adorned with gardens and dwelUngs, Burlington is as conspicuous for its pleasant and healthful location, as for its commercial advantages. The dome of the University of Vermont, which stands on an emiijence 250 feet above the lake, commands a most varied, extensive, and delightful prospect. A light-house on Juniper island marks the entrance of the harbor, and a breakwater, erected by the general government, protects it from the west vifinds of the lake. This village communicates liy railroad with Mont- pelier, Boston, and the intennediate places. Popula- tion, in 1810, 1,690; in 1820, ; in 1830, 3,525; in 1840, 4,271 ; in 1850, 5,211.

Possessing a combination of so many favora- ble circumstances, it has already received a vigorous impulse, and will undoubtedly advance with accelerated growth. Its broad and delightful streets, either along the water, or on higher ground, are admirably suited for business, as well as for residence, and the number of public buildings, elegant stores, and dwellings, is al- ready large, and receives almost daily accessions. A Bteam-ferry connects the town with the opposite side of the river. Pop. in 1840, 1,300 ; in 1850, 4,081. BunnNGTON, t., Licking co., O. Pop. 1388. Burlington, p. o., East Baton Rouge parish. La.

Mwich; ■I :ind la bounded N. by Oregon, e. by Utah and New Mexi- co, from which it is separated in part by Rio Colorado, s. by Sonora and Lower California, in Mexi- co, and w. by the Pacific. Its superficial area is 190,000 square miles. Physical Aspect. — The general features of this state arc mountainous and hilly, with the exce])tion of the gre.'il valliv "Ctlic .•^arn.nicnto and -^an ,Io.-H|uin, which cov.'is an a'lva ot ".(HI inil.>^ in Im-tli, and ',() ,,r (iO miles in wi.ltli. Un-e llio hU.lare in I. ■vol, an.l llic soil fertile along tlie bonlers of the Mnanis ; but furtbiT bai-k it is either arid and unproductive, or consists of extensive, low, alluvial marshes (tulares), thickly covered with rushes, which are traversed by numerous navigable creeks, or streams. This valley is bounded on the east by till' .'Jierra Nevada, the most prominent range in the state, wliieli run nearly parallel with the coast, at a dis- tance of KJO to 200 ni'iles. (Jn the west of this valley lies another range of lesser inonntaius called the Coast range, some of th'in ri-ini: to the height of 3,000 feet, which also run parallel with llie coast, at a distance of .30 to 60 miles. Amonu' thc-e hills are numerous valleys, some of which arc hii;lily fertile, and are surrounded by scenery of great beauty and pict\ircsque effect. The soil which appears to be best adapted to the purposes of tillage, is that embraced within the .-ibovc-namcd val- leys, and those adjacent to Eel river, Humboldt harbor, and San Francisco bay. Mouiitams. — The most prominent range of mountr.iiis in this state is the Sierra Nevada, along the wc.-ii m slope of which lie the fai--famcd gold regions, extending over an area 400 or 500 miles in length, and 30 to 60 in breadth. This slope is intersected by numerous gorges, or ravines, which afford egress to the tributaries of the .Sacrainento and San Joaquin, and presents to the landscape an aspect extremely picturesque, ragged, and rough. In the coast range the most prominent are Car- nero, Diablo, and Santa Cruz mountains. Rivers, Bays, Harbors, and Lilies.— T]ie principal streams arc, the Sacramento, .'^an .loaquin, Klamath, Trinity, Feather, Yuba, Iv'l, Nappa, Calaveras, Salinos, Guadalupe, Tuolinnnc, .Moqni'lnniiie, Pajaro, Merced, Mariposa. Stanislaus, Fall, and American rivers. The bays worthy of note an\ San Francisco, .■^an Pablo, and the Suisun, all entered tlirough the (Inldcn-Gate, which toffcther form a harbor sufficient for the collected fleets of the whole world. They afford good anchorage, and are completely land-locked, and consequently are safe at all seasons. Humboldt and St. Diego harbors, and 'Trinidad bay, are well protected from the ocean winds, and afford u safe anchorage. The harbor of Monterey CAL 63 CAL 18 good, but is subject to the swell of the Pacific at all times. This couutry has some lakes, the most noted of which are, the Tulares, Owen's, Clear, and Rhett. Climate.— The climate of California, with the excep- tion of that in the valley of Sacramento, and San Joa- quin, from June to October, may be regarded as salu- brious. The dry season, in which little or no rain falls, lasts generally from April to November. The rainy months occur from November to May, during which period it is estimated that nearly one third of the days are stormy. In the region near the coast, snow rarely falls to remain in the valleys, but occasionally caps the mountains and larger hills ; but further inland it is more frequent, and the Sierra Nevada is often capped with .=iiow till snow fulls a<,'ran. The annual inunda- tions of fill' ViiUcy of SiicnnuriHa and t-^an Joaquin occur in tlu' winter mid sjiriiiir, ami thi^ streams are frequent- ly at yreat hei:;Iir ia April and .May, in conseciuence of the meltiu!.' oitlicMununtaiu sntjws. Tlie temperature of the coa.-t, ii:iilirul:,rly in the norfliwestern part of the stati', is mild duriiii; the year; but the climate of the coast at tlie ."outh i.s much warmer, and in .summer it often is exceedingly hot. A few miles from the coast the brei-zes from the ocean become tempered to mild- ness, and the climate is pleasant and healthy. Still further inland, beyond the reach of tlie ocean breeze, particularly in the great valley, the summer tempera- ture is often intensely hot. The ni2:hts, tiowever, are usually cool. The winter temperature in the valley of Sacrammito ami San Joaquin, and on the coast, is usually reinarkalily mild, ice seldom fonning over an eighth of an incli thick, and the morning frosts commonly disap- pear under the midday sun. Prodiirtive. Resources. — Althouah California is not gen- erally adapted to thcinu-pose-sof protituble agriculture, yet there is land enough of the finest (|uality to supply a large population with" their ordinary vegetable wants. The valleys are exceedingly fertile, and will produce all of our common grain crops, witlioiit inigation, with the exception of Indian corn. Most of tin; ordinary vege- tables require irrigation, and when properly cultivated, their yield and size are truly enormous. The laiuls, however, in the vicbiity of Humboldt harbor, are i epre- sented to be highly fertile, and in consequence of occa- sional showers, which occur in the course of the dry season, they need no artificial watering to produce the finest crops. The rich alluvial soil of the Tulares, it re- claimed by dikes, so as to aft'ord the requisite inunda- tion, doubtless would prove well adapted to the cultiva- tion of rice. The vine flourishes in different parts of the state, and wine has long been made at Los Angelos, and in other places. Many of the recent settlers have commenced the cultivation of our northern fruits. In the southern counties the orange, castor-lieau, find some other tropical productions, are cultivated with success. This country seems by nature to be pi'culiarly V7ell a. •>•• <'miil>I>"ll townshlii, Stini- lw>n oo„ N. Y„ !Wa nm.

Charleston, city, and seat of justice of the district of the same name, occupies a point of land formed by the confluence of Ashley and Cooper rivers, which to- gether enter the ocean by a spacious and deep harbor, extending seven miles below the city. It is 120 miles southeast Of Columbia, the state capital, and 540 miles from Washington. Four channels, of ditterent depths, ati'urd an entrance hito the harbor through a sand-bar which obstructs it. The deepest of these admits ships with 16 feet draught. The harbor is defended by Fort Moultrie, on Sullivan island, lying at its mouth, and by Forts Pinckney and Johnson. The city stands on ground somewhat elevated above tide-water, and may be said to resemble New York on a smaller scale. It is constructed with regularity and taste, and many rich and varied trees of southern climes lend their charms. Besides the city proper, there are populous suburbs, which aSbrd fine sites for residences, and are identified with its growth and inter- ests. Charleston may be considered as the metropolis of the southern Atlantic states, as New Orleans is of those on the Mexicun l'uU" and the Mississippi. Into this basin, tlow many of tlir [nn.liirts of North Carolina and Georgia. Its fun i-n i-niniiM'ice is extensive and valuable, as is also its .-(lastiii;,' tnule, and packets, as well as splendid steamships, ply to New York and other maritime cities. Tlie Santee canal connects Santeo with Cooper river, thus opening a communication from Columbia, the state capital, to Charieston. The public buildings and institutions of the city, in- dicate the wealth, intelligence, and liberality of the people. There are a number of banks, churches, and hotels, some of them splendid and costly. Othei prom- inent buildings are the customhouse, guard-house, ex- change, city-hall state citadel, almshouse, orphan asy- CHA CHA lum, ioil, and the College of Chnrleston. The literary and scii'iititic institutions and libiiiries, are generally respec- table and nourishing. No city is more justly noted for hospitality and refinement, and its climate is more salu- brious than that of most southeni cities, affording a de- lightful and sale sunmier resort for planters from the low coimti-y and the West Indies^ and a pleasant winter resort for people from the north. The South Carolina railroad extends to Augusta, on the Savannah, 137 miles, where it communicates with the Georgia railroad. At Branchtown, 62 miles from Charleston, the Columbia braujh diverges to Camden and Columbia. Th.' population in 1790, was 16,359 ; in 1800, 18,712; in ISIO, 24.711 ; in 1820, 24,480 ; in 1830, 30,289 ; in 1840, 2!,).2(!1 ; in 1850, 42,985. ^ Charleston, p. t., Montgomeiy co., N.

Chicago, city, and seat ofjustice of Cook co.. 111., is situated on the west sido of Lake Michigan, and oc- cupies both sides of the river, from which it takes its name, and is built on the border of a prairie, elevated a little above the level of the lake. Few towns have a more advantageous position. The river, formed by 'the confluence of two branches, In the upper part of the city, is deep and spacious enough for a vast number of steamboats and vessels of various kinds, which here as- semble from ditferent points on the lakes, the St. Law- rence, the Erie, and Welland canals, and thickly line the wharves for some distance up the streams which form the harbor. The shore of the lake, naturally shal- low, has been extended into deep water, by means of two piers, wliich, projecting from both sides of tlie har- bor, protect it from the accumulation of sand. The streets of Chicago are generally broad and pleasant, lined with trees, and leading to the open pi-airie, or af- fording fine views of the lake. The buildings have the appearance of unusual comfort and convenience, while many of the public edifices are surpassed by those of few cities in the Union. Largo warehouses and stores, five or six stories high, splendid hotels, churches, fine public schools, and dwellings, frequently magnificent, are some of tlie structures which strike the eye, and excite admiration. Twenty years ago, the lands of the adjacent prairie were the property of the Pottawa- tomie Indians. In 1833, the tribe removed, by treaty, to lands in Missouri, and gave up their prairie to the set- tlers of Chicago ; since then, it has continued to in- crease, and of late with unexampled rapidity. The Illi- nois and Michigan canal, by connecting the navigation of the lake with that of the great river of the state, has caused the current of trade, which formerly flowed to- ward Jlississippi river, to turn toward the "garden city," making it the market of the rich productions of Illinois, and of vast quantities of goods from New York and other eastern cities. The branches of conunerce in which Chicago is most extensively engaged, are lum- ber, grain, and cattle. It exceeds all other western cities in the quantity of lumber exported ; vast forests of pine and other trees, covering the northern part of Wiscon- sin, while immense numbers of cattle, from the interior, are here slaughtered and transported eastward, fre- quently to Now York. The canal, which has con- tributed so largely to the growth of Chicago, is worthy of extended notice. Commencing (ibout 3 miles above the mouth of the river, it traverses the valley of that stream, and of the Des Plains, and terminus at Peru, the head of steamboat navigation on the Illinois. The whole length is 106 miles, widtli 60 feet, depth 6 feet. A navi- gable feeder, four miles lon^, communicates with Fox river, and the canal descends 20 feet by two locks to- ward the Illinois. It was begun in 1836, and finished in 1849. Tlie Galena and Chicago Union Railroad, commences at Chicago, and extends to Galena, the head of steam- boat navigation on the Mississippi, and the depot of a region rich in lead. The central road will unite it with Mississippi river near the mouth of the Ohio, while the Southern and central Michigan roads connect it with the eastern states. The population in 1840, was 4,479 ; in 1850, 29,964 ; in 1852, 38,733. Chichester, p. t., Merrimack co., N. H., 8 ms. e. of Concord ; from W. 489 ms. Watered by Suncook river. Pop. 997.

Pop. in 1850, 10,396. Cleveland, p. v., Constantia township, Oswego co., N. Y. Watered by Oneida lake. Cleveland, city, and seat of justice of Cuyahoga co., O., is finely situated on the south shore of Lake Erie, at the mouth of Cuyahoga river. It is 200 miles east of Columbus, and 359 miles from W. The shore of Lake Erie here is a bold bluff, about 80 feet high, upon the level top of which the largest and best part of the city is built. Here the streets are straight and spacious, the buildings neat and pleasant, and an open park, shaded with trees, occupies the centi-e. Fronting this square, are the courthouse, a church, and other prominent buildings. Hitherto, the rapid growth of Cleveland, has caused "it to want that aspect of permanence which is the result of slower increase ; but solid stores, hotels, and dwellings, are now rising in every quarter, making it as substantial as it is flourishing. Toward Cuyahoga river, the ground descends steeply, aflbrding a con%-e- nient locality for stores, warehouses, andplaces of busi- ness. Here, the plan of the town is less regular, and not so attractive. The mouth of the river constitutes the harbor, which is deep, spacious, and accessible. Two piers of solid masonry project 1,200 feet into the lake, and mark the entrance. At the end of one of these piers stands a lishthouse ; another occupies the brow of the hill on the lake. Vessels of the largest class enter the harbor, and proceed some distance up the river, but the Ohio and Erie canal, alon^ the stream and through its bed, is the principal chaimel of inland navi- gation. This great canal connects Portsmouth, 307 miles distant, on the Ohio river, with Cleveland, and traverses the rich interior of the state. It meets the Ohio and Pennsylvania canal at Akron, in Summit county, and thus communicates with Pittsburgh and the east By these channels, and tlie facilities of inter- course with New York, Canada, and Michigan, which Likes Erie, Ontario, and Huron aftbrd, Cleveland main- tains a commerce as varied as it is extensive. Here congregate steamboats and other vessels, from eveiy point on the vast shores of the great lakes, exchanging many foreign articles for the grain and other agricultu- ral products of Ohio. Hei-e, also, tenninate the Cleve- land and Pittsburgh, and the Cincinnati, Columbus, and Cleveland railroads. The Lake-shore railroad connects it with the Erie at Dunkirk, the Central at Buffalo, and the Southern Michigan at Toledo. The manufacturing facilities of this city are not equal to its commercial ad- vantages. The only water-power is afforded by the Cuyahoga river and the Ohio canal, which serve to keep several establishments in operation. Such articles as are necessary to supply the demand for domestic manu- facture, existing in every flourishing city, are produced by the aid of steam and other mechanical powers. The population in 1802, was about 200 ; in 1810, 547 ; in 1820, 606; in 1830, 1,076; in 1840, 6,071; in 1650, 17,0»} ; in 1852, 25,670.

COLU.MBIA, DISTRICT OF, was ceded to the United States by Maryland and Virginia, in 1790, and became the sent ot the nationiil government in 1800. It was originally ten miles square, lying on both sides of the Potomac, thirty -six square miles Saving been taken from Virginia, which constituted the city and county of Alexandria, and sixty-four square miles from Mary- land, embracing the county of Vvashington. By an act of Congress, in 1846, which was subsequently accepted by the people of Alexandria, that county was retroeeded to the state of Virginia, and the District of Coliunbia is now restricted to the Maiyland side of the Potomac, embracing the cities of Washington and Georgetown. This dislrict was the theatre of disgraceful scenes, in our last war with England, in 1814. In August of that year Washina;ton was left in a defenceless condition, when invaded by the British, and was deserted by the President, the heads of the departments, and by most of the citizens. The enemy entered the city, bunied the cajiitol, including the library of Congress, the man- sion ot the president, the navy-yard, with its contents, and most of the public-offices, except the patent-office. The whole world regarded this act as a violation of the rules of modern warfai-e. The surface of this territory is gently undulating, with some low marshes, but there are sevei-al eminences which atVbrd fine seats for the cities within its Ihuits. The soil, with little exception, is sterile in its natural state, but has of late been ren- dered productive by superior cultivation. The climate Is similar to that ot the contiaruous states. The popula- tion in 1800 was 14,093 ; in 1810, 24.023 ; in 1820, 33,039 ; in 1830, 39,834 ; in 1840, 43,712 ; in 1850, 51.687. Num ber of slaves in 1800, 3,244 ; in 1810, 5,3*15 ; in 1820, 6,377 ; in 1830, 6,119 ; in 1840, 4,694 ; in 1850, 3,687. The civil government of this district is under the im- mediate authority of the United States, and the munici- pal power is exercised by a mayor and corporation. It has never been represented in Congress. COLUMBIA COUNTY, situated on the east bound- ary of New York, with Hudson river on the west. Area, 624 square miles.

Its central position, the well-cultivated and produc- tive surrounding region, and the communication by rail- road with Boston, Portsmouth, and the interior, contrib- ute to Concord a steady growth and prosperity. The statehouse, built of white granite, taken from the neigh- boring quarries, is a fine structure in the centre of the town, 126 feet long, 49 feet wide, with projections of four feet on each front, surmounted by a fine cupola. Here also is the stateprison, constructed of the same kind of material.

CONNECTICUT, onn of the United ^^fatps, so called from its principal river, lies between 41'= and 42° north latitudf. and 7F 20' and 73° 15' west longitude from Greenwich, and is bounded nenth by Massiirliu.rtts; east by Kliiiili' Islmid; sound ; and west liy New York, contain- ing 4,674 sq. miles. Physical Afpert.— The surface is uneven, and greatly diversified by hills and valleys. The soil is generally fertile, particularly so in Fairfield county, and the al- luvial meadows in the valley of the Connecticut are uncommoidy fine, and well adapted for tillage ; but a large portion of the state is better suited to tlie purposes of grazing. Mountains.— Strictly speaking, there are three moun- tain ranges in this state ; one running a few miles east of the Connecticut, as far south as Chatham, where it is cut oft' by that river, and reappears again on the west- ern side, and terminates at East Haven. Another range, which extends from Mount Tom, in Massachusetts, runs through the whole state, on the westerly side of the Connecticut, and terminates at New Haven, in a bold bluff called East Rock. A third range, still further west, extends from the Green Mountains, in A'crmont, across the state to New Haven, and terminates in a similar bluff called West Rock. The Blue hills, in Southington, belonging to this range, are the most ele- vated land in the state," being at least 1,000 feet in height. At the westward of Hartford is Talcott mountain, be- longing also to this rana:e. Rivers, Bays. Harbors, Sf-c. — The principal rivers are, the Connecticut, Housatonic, Thames, Farraington, Nau- gatuck, and the Quinnebaug. The shores of Connecti- cut are penetrated by numerous bays and creeks, which afford many safe harbors for small vessels. The three best harbors in the state are those of New London, Bridgeport, and New Haven. CUmalc. — The climate is generally healthy, though sub- ject to sudden changes of temperature, and extreme de- grees of heat and cold. In winter, the northwest winds are piercing and keen, while those which blow from the south are more mild. Near the coast the weather is particularly variable, usually changing with the wind, as it blows from the land or the sea. In the western and northerly parts of the state, the temperature is more uniform and mild. Productive Resources. — Among the staple products may be enumerated, horses, mules, neat cattle, sheep, swine, poultry, eggs, fish, beef, pork, milk, butter, cheese, silk, wool, tobacco, hemp, flax, hay, straw, wheat, rye, barley, oats, buckwheat, Indian corn, pota- toes, garden Tegetables, fmits, cider and wine.

The only caiu\ls in the state now in operation are those which have been constructed to facilitnte naviga- tion on the t'oimeetleut river. Ci>miiiiyi-i\ — The commerce of Connecticut is mostly with the southern stales and the West lii.lies. The im- ports and exports ot Ifi.'.tl amount.'d to .SHI t.lVJO, one half of which entered and cleared at New Haven, and one fiHirth at New London. Tlie shii>ping owned with- in the slate aininmts to aliout l-,'0,00l> ton.V. The I'ort-iuii conmierc(> of Connecticut has decreased, owin:j to the facilities atVoided by railroad conuuunication for ship- ping at New York and Hoston. K:ti'i-iitit')i. — Thi're are three colleges in Conneetienf ; Vale colli-;;.', at Ni-w Haven, one of" the most nourish- ing: in the Union ; Trinity college, at Hartford ; and the AV.-slevan university, at"Middletown. There are in the state ir.O academies, and over 2,000 common schools. Connecticut has a largi' school fund, amotinting to about S-J.000.000.

The first permanent settle- ment was made in 1(;;13, by F.nglish emigrants from Mas- sachusetts Bay, who located at Windsor, Hartford, and Welherstield. lii Ui;lo, another puritan colony was also eslalilisbed at the month of the Connecticut, "called the • SavlMdok." in hon.n- of Lords Sav and r>rook. to whom, in IimI, the t govermuent for thiMuselves, as one public state, or conuiionweallh. to which tin- Saybrook colony \ya3 annexed. l>v purchase, in liMI. and with which the New Haven colony unit.'d, undi'r the royal charti'r, in granted by Charles II., embracing the territory exteiul- tng westward from Narraganset liay to the Paeitie, em- bracing within its limits the New Haven colony, and most (if the pivsent stato of Rhode Island. In l(>87, Pir Edmund Audros came to Hartford with a body of tat)ops, and, by royal authority, as governor-general of nil New England, demanded a surrender of this charter, nnd a dissolution of the existing govennnent. The Con- necticut assenjbly being in session at the time. wtMe not disposed to make the surrender, and while the suliject was under discussion, the lights %vere extinguished, and the charter secretly conveyed away, anil concealed in the cavity of n hoUow oak-tn'e, winch is still standing, nnd bears the name of the " Charter Oak." This char- ter formed the basis of the government until 1818, when the pn>sent constitution "was adopted. Within tliis charter was embraced tin' "Connecticut West.-rn Re- serve," consisting of about 3.300.0(10 acres of land in the northeast part of Ohio, which, as a compromise, was ceded to the United States, in 179(). It was sold to the Connecticut Land Company, for 81,200,000, and was the foundation of tho state school fund. Tlie constitu- tion of the United States was adopted in 1788. Tho motto of the state seal is. Qui Iranstulit siistinct—" Ho who brought ua hither still preserves." Giircnimcnt. — The government is vested in a gover- nor, lieutenant-governor, senate, and house of irpresen- tativi>s, all chosen ammally by the people, on the first Monday in April. The senate consists of not less than 18, nor more than 24 members. The sessions of tho legislature are held annually, alternately, at Hartford and New Hayen. The judicial power is vested in a su- preme court of errors, superior court, nnd such inferior courts as tho legislature may establish.

DELAWARE, one of the United States, the smallest in the Union in respect to population, and, next to Rliode Island, in territoiy also, lies be- tween 38° 27' and 39° 50' north lat.. and 75° and 75^ 40' west Ion. from Greenwich, and is bounded north by Pennsylvania, east by the Delaware river and bay ; and south and west by Mary- Its lenffth from north to south is 90 miles, its greatest breadth 32 miles, and its superficial area 2,120 miles. It derives its name from the bay on which it lies, and which received its name from Lord Delaware (or de la War), governor of Virginia, who died upon its waters. Physical Aspect. — The general aspect of this state is that of an extended plain, or several inclined plains, fa- vorable for cultivation. Some of the upper portions of the county of Newcastle, however, are irregular and broken; the heights of Christiana are lofty and com- manding ; and the hills of Brandywine are rough and stony ; but in the region toward Delaware river and bay there is very little diversity of surface. On the ta- ble land, forming the dividing ridge between the Dela- ware and Chesapeake, is a chain of swamps, which arive rise to various streams, that descend the slopes to either bay. Along the Delaware river, and some ten miles into the interior, the soil generally consists of a rich clay, well adapted to the purposes of agriculture ; but between this tract and the swamps the soil is sandy and light, and of inferior quality. In the county of New- castle the soil is a strong clay ; in Kent it is mixed with sand ; and in Sussex the sand greatly predomi- nates. Rivers and Bays.— The principal streams, besides the Delaware river, which forms a part of the eastera boun- dary, are Brandywine, Jones, Christiana, Duck, and Mispillion creeks, and Choptank, Marshy Hope, and Nanticoke rivers. India river enters the Atlantic by a broad estuary, and Delaware bay washes the state on the east. Climate. — The climate is generally mild and healthy ; but the two extremes diflPer in temperature more than might be expected in so little extent of latitude, and in so small a difference in relative height. The winters in the northern part are somewhat cold, but never severe. The summers are hot in those situations not tempered by the breezes from the bays. Productive Re.iources. — The principal staple products are horses, mules, neat cattle, sheep, poultry, eggs, swine, beef, pork, silk, wool, hay, butter, cheese, milk, wheat, rye, barley, oats, buckwheat, potatoes, peaches, and Jndian com. The county of Sussex exports large quantities of timber, obtained from Cypress swamps, or Indian river. Delaware contains but few minerals. Among the branches of the Nanticoke there are large quantities of bog iron ore, however, well adapted for castings. Bcrore the Revolution it was worked to some extent, but since that period the business has de- clined. Manufactures. — The manufactures of Delaware con- sist chiefly of woollen and cotton goods, leather, paper, iron, gunpowder, &c. Its fiouring-mills are numerous and extensive, and its flour takes' a high stand in the market. Railroads and Canals. — The only railroads -within the state are, the Frenchtown, from Newcastle to Frcnch- tomi, 16 miles ; the Philadelphia and Wilmington, and the Wilmington and Baltimore, which form part of the great line of travel from the northern to the southern Atlantic states. The Chesapeake and Delaware sloop canal, 14 miles long, is the only canal in the state. It extends from Delaware city to Back creek, and unites the waters of the two great bays from which it takes its name. Commerce. — The foreign commerce of Delaware is very smaU.

There are about 30 academies, and 250 common schools in the state.

Government. — The legislative power is vested in a senate, of nine members, three from each county, cho- sen for four years, and a house of representatives, of twenty-one members, seven from each county, chosen for two years. The executive power is vested in a jjov- emor, chosen for four years, and ineligible ever after. General election, biennially, second Tuesday in Novem- ber, and the legislature meets at Dover on the first Tuesday in January. The judicial power is vested in a court of errors, superior court, court of chancery, or- phan's court, oyer and terminer, general sessions, re- gistei's court, and such other courts as may be estab- lished by law. The right of euftrage is granted to every white male citizen, twenty-two years of age, after one year's residence in the state, and one month in the county where he votes, and having within two years paid a tax ; also to those persons, qualified as aforesaid, twenty-one years of age, without payment of tax. History.— Lord Delaware, governor of Virginia, first entered tiie bay known by his name in 1610. The Dutch from the New Netherlands (New York) soon afterward visited it, and claimed jurisdiction. The first perma- nent settlement upon the Delaware was made by a col- ony of Swedes, in 1627, under the auspices of the Swe- dish West India Company. The Dutch asserted their claim by an appeal to arms, and, with a competent force, took possession of the country, in 1655, and at- tached it to the New Netherlands. When the latter came into the possession of the Duke of York, in 1681, William Penn, as stated in the history of Pennsylvania, purchased what is now the state of Dekware, and an- nexed it to Pennsylvania. Delaware had a legislature separate from that of Pennsylvania, but after 1703 one governor ruled both. It remained in this subordinate condition until 1776, when the inhabitants declared it a free and independent state, and organized a government under it. It was the first to ratify the constitution, which it did on the 7th of December, 1787. Its state constitution was adopted in 1792, and revised and amended in 1831.

Detroit, city, and seat of justice of Wayne CO., Mich., occupies a pleasant and commanding situation, on the west bank of Detroit river, 18 miles from Lake Erie, and 7 miles from Lake St. Clair. Between the two great lakes, Huron and Erie, upon both of which, its vessels carry on an extensive trade, through Lakes Su- perior and Michigan, and with Canada, Pennsylvania, and New York. It is an important metropolis of the western states, and is destined to a still higher rank than it now holds. The city is agreeably laid out with broad streets, some of which converge at the " Circus," a spacious public ground. Among the other parks, is the " Campus Martius," near the centre of the city. Parallel with the river, at the foot of the eminence upon which the town is built, is a street lined with warehouses and stores. Above this, another street runs in the same direction, and still further to the west, is the principal business street, which is closely built with stores, dwell- ings, and public buildings. Here, until 1847, when the seat of government was removed to Lansing, stood the stntebouse, from the high dome of which appears an enchanting prospect of the river. Lake St. Clair, and their picturesque and romantic shores. Other build- ings are the city-hall, bank of Michigan, churches, markets, schools, and various scientific and literary in- stitutions. Several hundred steamboats and other ves- sels, from various places on the lakes, visit Detroit du- ring the season of navigation, which lasts about two thirds of the year. The Michigan Central railroad extends 281 miles to- ward Chicago, on Lake Michigan ; and the Detroit and Pontiac railroad is 25 miles long. The population in 1810, was 770; in 1820, 1,422; in 1830. 2,222 ; in 1840, 9,102 ; in 1850, 21,119. Detroit, p. o., Somerset co.. Me. Detroit, p. o.. Pike co.. 111. Detroit, p. o., Marion co., Ala.

Ill FLORIDA, (so call- ed by Juan Ponce de Leon, in 1812, from having discoveredthe coast on Pascua Flo- riila, the name, in Spanish, for Easter,) t!ie most southern Mate in the nnion, lies between 25" and :iW north latitude, anil 80^^ and 874" west longitude from Greenwich ; and is bounded north by Alabama and Geor- gia, east by the Atlantic, south by the gulf of Mexico, and west by the gulf of Mexico and Afabama. Its su- perficial area is 59,000 square miles, of which but about one half is yet surveyed and occupied. Physical Aspect. — The face of the country is generally level, and not much elevated above the sen, though we find along the whole northern boundary considerable diversity of surface. A base of calcareous rock com- mences" in the northern part of the state, and probably extends under the whole peninsula. This friable stone outciops the surface of St Augustine, and other parts on the main, and reappears again on the southern keys, as well as on the Bahamas, and the northern shores of Cuba, on the opposite side of the gulf. In Florida, this formation is generally overlaid by'deep super-strata of clay, shells, an"d sand. The soil, however, generally is sandy, except in places called " hummocks," where it consists either of reddish-yellow or black clnj-, mixed with sand. These hummocks, which are nu- merous and much scattered throughout the state, vary from a few acres to several miles in extent and constitute no email part of the peninsula, Another in- ted by be, af. considerable portion of Florida consists in what is gen- erally known in the soutli by the name of " pine-bar- rens," much of the soil of which is exceedingly poor ; though there are extensive tracts of hummo'ck, table- land,''and swamp, of the richest character, well adapted to cultivation. These barrens, wherever intersected b Bti-eams of pure water, however poor they may ford excellent ranges for grazing. The southern por- tion of the state presents singular alternations of sa- vannas, hummocks, lakes, and grass-ponds, called col- lectively " everglades," which extend from Cape Sable into the heart ot the country for several hundred miles. This region, including two large swamps, one named Atsenaliooffa, on the western side, and tlie other Hal- pabeoka, on the nortlicastem side, embracing the large lake Okeechobee, covers an area of 7,000,t)00 acres, 4,500,000, of which are usually submerged in water, from two to seven feet deep. The " Pahhayokee," or " grass-water," as the Indians call the evereiadcs com- prises from 1,000,000 to 1,500,000 acres of "subinerged lands. The basin of the everglades is surroundni by a rim of soft lime-rock, from half a mile to five miles in width, and its bottom is represented to be some 12 to 15 feet above the level of the sea. Deep tide rivers ex- tend from the ocean and gulf quite up to the margin of the river ; and comparatively, at a small outlay, mil- lions of acres of land, now worthless, could be drained by canals, and brought into the highest state of im- provement Witliin this basin are thousands of islets, of the richest class of land, and the glades are often filled with tall grass, from six to ten feet in height, the annual decay of which has occasioned a deposito in the water from two to six feet thick. This tract lies south of 274° of north latitude, where there is seldom or no frost ; and if it were reclaimed, as suggested above, it would be adapted to the cultivation of tho orange, the pineapple, rice, sugarcane, and other tropi- cal plants. Rircrs, Lakes, and Bays. — Tlie principal rivers are the St John's, Appalachicola, Suwanee, St Mark's, Su Mary's, Ocklocouy, Escambia, Withlacoochee, Oscilla, Choctawhatchee, Yellow-Water, Amasura, Anclota, Hillsborough. Charlotte, Gnllivan's, Young's, Kissimee, and the Perdido ; the latter of which forms the western boundary between this state and Alabama. The St John's is an anomaly among the rivers of the Atlantic coast. Its source is rather^undefinable, being derived from tlie flat grassy plains, or savannas, is about lati- tude 28° north, probably not more than 20 miles from the sea. It is exceedingly winding in its course, run- ning in a northei-ly direction, to a distance of nearly 300^nile3. In some places it has more the appearance of a lake, or sound, than a river, sweUing out from three to five miles in breadth ; while in other parts it dwindles down to a quarter of a mile wide. Vessels drawing eight feet of water ascend to Lake George, a beautiful expansion of this stream, 150 miles from its mouth. The chief lakes are, the Great Okeechobee, George, Dunn's, Cypress, Monroe, Orange, Istopoga, Tobokopoligia, Weeok, Yakapka, Jessup, Harney, Eus- tis, Poinsett, Beresford, Ashey, W^insor, Gardiner, Grif- fin, and Gentry. There are numerous bays on the west- ern side, some of which form good harbors. Among these are, Perdido, Pensacola, Choctawhatchie, St An- drew's, St Joseph's, Appalachicola, Appalachee, Tam- pa, Charlotte, and GalUvan's. In front of Pensacola bay is a long, shallow lagoon, called Santa Rosa sound. On the east coast of the state there aro but few bays, prop- erly speaking. Femandina bay forms the mouth of St Mary's river. Mosquito and Indian river, or St. Lucia sounds, are situated near Cape Canaveral, which are entered by inlets of the same names. Many of the rivers on this side of the penhisula form good' harbors for coasting vessels. Islands and Keys.— Floridn is remarkable for the great number of small low islets which lie in the vicini- ty of its shores, called " Keys." The most noted of these are Key West (formerly called Thompson's is- land), Indian, Sand, Pine, and Cedar keys. The most noted islands are, Merit's, and Hutchinson's, near Cape Camaveral ; Amelia island, near St Mary's sound ; Sanybel, Pine, Captive, and Gasparilla islands, near Charlotte harbor ; Mullet island, near Tampa bay ; St George's, and Dog islands, near Appalachicola" bay; Santa Rosa island, near Pensacola bay ; and Drayton island, in Lake George. Cape Sable is the southern- most point in the United States. Climate. — Florida presents some diversity of seasons ; J^on. % y^est tram ^^asMngtan 4| FLO 126 FLU but the difference of relative level being Email, and sur- rounded as it is by water on three eides, it enjoys a climate peculiar to itself. On the seaboard it is gen- erally healthy for eight or nine months in the year, and in some parts remarkably so the whole year round. In the interior, it is quite as salubrious as it is in either of the other southern states, unless it be in the vicinity of marshes, or stagnant waters, where fevers and other epidemics invariably prevail. The vrii«ers are mild, and usually without frost, though the mercury occa- sionally sinks to 30° Fahrenheit, and sometimes as low as 26° ; in summer, the temperature seldom exceeds 97°. The climate of the southernmost keys is truly tropical. Productive Resources. — The staple products consist of horses, mules, neat cattle, sheep, swine, poultry, hay, wool, tobacco, cotton, wheat, oats, potatoes, oranges, sugar, molasses, and Indian corn. The forests produce an abundance of live-oak timber, cedar, and yellow pine. Turtle and other fisheries are carried on some- what extensively among the keys. Salt is made in small quantities, and granite is quai'ried to some ex- tent. Manufactures. — Florida being mostly an agricultural state, but little attention as yet has been paid to manu- factures. In 1850 there were but 121 manufacturin" establishments, producing to the extent of $500 and upward each annually. Railroads and Canals. — Tlie legislature of Florida has granted several charters for raili-oads in this state, but thus far there are neither railroads nor canals with- in its borders. Commerce. — Tlie direct foreign commerce of Florida amounts to about $3,000,000 annually. Shipments are also extensively made through New Orleans, and the Atlantic ports. The coasting trade of Florida is also considerable. The shippnig in the state amounts to about 12,000 tons. Education. — The constitution of Florida provides for the establishment of common schools throughout the state, but thus far little progress has been made in affording facilities for clementai-y education. There are academies and grammar-schools in the more populous towns, but no collegiate institution. Population.— In 1830, 34,723; in 1840, 54,477; in 18.50, 87,401. Number of slaves in 1830, 15,501 ; in 1840, 25,717 ; in 1850, 39,309. Government.— The legislative power is vested in a senate and house of representatives. The senate con- sists of 19 members, elected by the people, in districts, for two years. The representatives are elected by the people, by counties, biennially, their number never to exceed sixty ; present number, thirty. Biennial elec- tion, first Monday in October. The executive power is vested in a governor, who is chosen by the people once in four years, and is not eligible the succeeding term. The judicial power is vested in a supreme court, having appellate jurisdiction only ; also in circuit courts, the state being divided into four circuits, in each of which a judge of the supreme court has jurisdiction. The judges arc elected by the legislature, at first for five years ; after that term, during good behavior. There are also courts of probate. The right of suffrage may be exercised by every free white male, aged 21 years, or upward, who has resided in the state for two years, and in the county for six months, and who shall be en- rolled in the militia, or be by law exempted from serv- ing therein. History.— The present state of Florida embraces a portion of the ancient Florida, which extended from its southeiTimost cape to the river Panuco, in Mexico, and westward to the Pacific, and the undefined regions on the north. It was first explored by Juan Ponce de Leon, in 1512, in search of a spring called the " fountain of youth," which was supposed to have the power of renewing the vigor of youth in the aged. In 1526, it was formally taken possession of in the name of the king of Spain, by Pamphilo de Nai-vaez, who had been sent out as governor. The first permanent settlements were made at St. Augustine, in 1565, and at Pensacola, in 1699 ; though an unsuccessful attempt had been made, by a colony of Huguenots, in 1562-'64, under Ribault. Though often invaded by the English and French, this territory remained a part of the Spanish dominions until 1763, when it was ceded to Great Britain, but re- stored again to Spain in 1783. From the year 1699 to 1763, the acknowledged boundary between Florida and Louisiana was the river Perdido, but when the latter came into the possession of the Spaniards, for convenience. West Florida was extended to the Missis- sippi. From this circumstance arose the difficulties be- tween Spain and the United States, on their purchase of Louisiana of the French, in 1803. In 1781, Governor Galvez, of Louisiana, invaded and conquered West Florida ; but by the treaty of Paris, in 1793, it fell once more to Spain, who held it until 1798, when this por- tion of Florida, which was claimed as far north as Al- tamaha river, in Georgia, was relinquished to the Uni- ted States. By virtue of their claims to that portion of Louisiana lying between the Mississippi and Perdido rivers, as held by France prior to 1763, the United States in 1811, seized Baton Rouge, and all other parts of the disputed territory west of Perdido, except Mo- bile, which also surrrnded in 1812. After a protracted and uninterrupted negotiation, Florida was ceded to the United States, in 1819, ratified by Congress as a ter- ritory in 1821, and admitted into the Union as an inde- pendent state in 1845.

Galen-v a thrivingcity, the seat of justice of Jo-Daviess CO., lU., is situated" on both sides of Fevre. or Bean river, six miles above its entrance into the Mississippi, and the largest boats ascend to this point at all stages of the water. The city is mostly built on the west side of the river, yet it is rapidly extending on the opposite Bide, with which it is connected by'three substantial bridges. This is the centre of the great lead region, which occupies the northwestern portion of Illinois, and the southwestern comer of Wisconsin, together vrith a etrip of a few miles in width on the opposite side of the Mississippi in Iowa, equal to a surface of nearly three thousand square miles. In riding over the coun- try from Galena to the Wisconsin river, the most re- markable feature presented is the numerous " diggings.*' Its trade vrith the surrounding country is extonsFve, embracing a circuit of 30 to 100 ms. The town presents a very metallic appearance, ina-nnuch as its whar\-es, for quite a distance, are lined vrith piles of pig-lead. It is estimated by those whose knowledge and experience render them competent to judge, that if the mines al- ready opened were well worked, they are capable of producing 150,000,000 pounds annually for ages to come. The population of Galena in 1850, was 6,004. Galena, t., Franklin co.. Mo. Galena, p. o., Floyd co., Ind. Gales, p. c, Sullivan co., N. Y., 103 ms. s. w. of Al- bany : from W. 286 ms.

Its superticial area is 61,500 square miles. Physical Aspect. — This state occupies a large propor- .tion of the great inclined plain, from which the penin- sula of Florida protrudes, and down which several rivers flow into the Atlantic and the Mexican gulf. From the Atlantic border of this state, this acclivity grad- ually rises to an elevation of 1,200 feet above the level of the sea, without estimating the mountain ridges. Like the Carolinas, it may be divided into three zones. First, the flat sea-border, including numerous small is- lands ; second, the sand-hill zone ; and third, a hilly and partly mountainous tract, beyond the lower falls of the rivers. The soil on the islands, called hummock land, is very rich, producing the celebrated Sea-island cotton. The seacoast on the main land consists of a belt of salt marsh, four or five miles in width. In the rear of this margin commence the "pine barrens," which ex- tend 60 to 90 miles from the ocean. The rivers and creeks are generally bordered with swamps, or marshes, which, at every tide, are either wholly or partially over- flowed, for 15 or 20 miles from the coast. These con- stitute the principal rice plantations. Beyond the pine barrens the country becomes uneven, diversified with hills and mountains, of a strong rich soil. The north- western part of the state is mountainous, and abounds in beautiful scenery. The soil of Georgia, though va- ried, is, a large portion of it, productive. At a distance from the sea it changes from gray to red; in some places it is gravelly, but fertile : and farther back in the country its color is gradually deepened, till it becomes what is called the " mulatto soil," consisting of black mould and reddish earth. This is succeeded in its turn by a soil that is nearly black, and very rich, In the southwest portion of the state is Okefenokee swamp, about 170 miles in circumference. Mountains.— 1h\a state is traversed on the north by a spur of tlie AUeghanies, among which are Yonah and Currahee mountains. Pine mountain lies near the west- ern boundary. Rivers and Sounds.— The principal rivers are, the Sa- vannah, Ogeechce, Altamalia, Satilla, Ocmulgee, Oco- nee, St. Mary's, Flint, Chattahoochee, Tallapoosa, and Coosa. The coast of Georgia is indented by numerous sounds and inlets, which occur at the mouths of the principal rivers. Islands.— A\ong the Atlantic coast there is a chain of islands, which are separated from the main by rivers, creeks, and inlets, forming an inland navigation of more than 100 miles. The principal of these islands are, Ty- bee, Wassaw, Ossabaw, St. Catherine's, Sapelo, St. Si- mon's, Jykill, and Cumberland. Climate.— The climate, from the difference of eleva- tion, is varied, one section producing wheat, and an- other sugar-cane. The winters arc usually mild and pleasant ; snow is seldom seen, nor is vegetation often interrupted by severe frosts. 'The temperature of win- ter usually fluctuates from 40" to 60" Fahrenheit, al- though it occasionally falls as low as 16°. In the low country, in the vicinity of swamps, fevers and bilious attacks are common, owing partly to the badness of the water, but principally to the noxious vapors which arise from stagnant water, and putrid matter in the rice swamps. In the "upper country" the air is pure and salubrious throughout the year, and the water is abun- dant and good. Productive Resources.— The staple products of this state consist of horses, mules, neat cattle, sheep, swine, poultry, silk, wool, butter, cheese, cotton, tobacco, rice, sugar, wine, wheat, rye, oats, barley, potatoes, and In- dian com. Among the mineral resources are. copper, iron, and gold. The latter occurs in considerable abun- dance in the northern part of the state, on both sides of Chattahoochee river, as far north as the Blue Ridge.

Harrisburgh, the seat of justice of Dauphin co., and capital ol I'a., is situated on the east bank of Susque- hanna rivei-, 97 miles northwest of Philadelphia, and 110 miles from Washington. It is a borough, built on rising ground, which subsides toward Paxton creek into a plain. From the elevation upon which the State- house stands, appears a wide and varied prospect of hills, fertile vales, and winding streams. Across the Susquehanna and the island which here divides it, ex- tends the Harrisburgh bridge, nearly a mile in length, and not far below, the bridge of the runilieilnnd Valley railroad. The channels of communication, the Penn- sylvania lines of railroad and canal, besi(lr>h opening a way to the remote part of the state, conv<^y to Harris- burgh the products of the neighboring fertile region, of which it is a profitable market The Susquehanna, with its large volume of water, is not navigable, except for timber rafts, which can only descend with its swift current. The capitol is an imposing structure, consisting of a main building and two wings, each adorned with a por- tico and Ionic pillars. The central edifice is 180 feet wide, 80 feet deep, and 108 feet from the ground to the top of the dome. The whole is surrounded by an open space, adorned with trees, walks, and an iron-railing. The other prominent buildings, are a Mnsonie-hall, two bank.s, a prison, and 11 number of churehes. By the Mount Airy water-vi'orks, water is elevated from the Su.squehann"a into a reservoir, on a hill above the borough, and thence is distributed tliro\igh iron- pipes. Manufactures, to a considerable extent, are produced in Harrisburgh, and the town is gradually increasing in population' and wealth. The population in 1810, was 2,287: in 1820, 2,990; in 1830, 4,311 ; in 1810. 6,020 ; in 18.i0. 8,173. Harrisburgh, p. t., Lewis co., N. Y., 145 ms. n. w. of Albany • from W. 427 ms.

Hartford, city, seat of justice of Hartford co., and state capital, together with New Haven, of (,'onnecticut, is situated on Connecticut river, at the beail of sloop na- vigation, 45 miles from its entranre into Lonir Island sound, 100 miles southwest of Boston, and 123 north- east of New York. The city is built on the west bank of the river, which rises suddenly into an elevation, and stretches away into an undulating and diversified coun- try. Seated in the centre of the state, and in its richest region, and communicating with the whole valley of the Connecticut, from Vermont to the sound, it enjoys an extensive and valuable trade in all the manufactures and productions peculiar to New England. The plan HAR 152 HAT of the city is not very regular, but many of its buildings are elegant and beautiful for situation. On a public square stands the state-house, a fine structure of the Doric order. 116 feet long, 75 wide, and .54 high. Trinity college, an Episcopal inBtitution, has a fino location near the city. The city-hall in the Doric, and the AthenKum of the Gothic architecture, are conspicuous edifices. But the buildings most honorable to Hartford, are the American Asylum for the education of the Deaf and Dumb, and the Retreat of the Insane. Both of these institutions are widely known, and include persons from^ all parts of the country. The former is situated on Tower hill, about a mile west of tlie city, and re- ceives a revenue from grants made by the general gov- ernment, and from other sources. The buildings of the Insane Asylum are located toward the southwest of the city, upon an eminence, in the midst of picturesque and delightful scenery, well-suited to minister to the injured mind that peace and quietude which nature can host impart. A beautiful frei^stone bridge spans Mill river, which winds through the city into the Connec- ticut, by a single arch of 100 feet, and a substantial and costly bridge connects the town with East Hartford. Perhaps the object of most universal interest in the vi- cinity of Hartford, is the Charter Oak, which still flour- ishes as in its pristine verdure, though age has robbed it of some of its limbs. It stands on a beautiful elevation south of the city. The New Haven and Hartford, the Hartford and Springfield, and the Connecticut River railroads, traverse the best part of Massachusetts and Connecticut ; and sloops and steamboats ply upon the river and Long Islnnd sound.

ILLINOIS, some- times called the " Prairie stjite," is situated between 37° and 42° 30' north lati- tude, and 87'^ 49' and 91" 30' longitude west from Greenwich ; it is bounded north by Wisconsin, east by LalcR Michigan and iana, south by the Ohio river, which se- parates it from Ken- tucky, and west by the Mississippi river, which separates it from Missouri and Iowa. Its super- ficial area is 55,400 square miles. Physical Aspect.— The general surface of this state may be regarded as a gentle plain, more or less rolling inclined in the direction of its rivers. The northern and southern sections, however, are somewhat broken, but no portion of the territory is traversed by ranges of mountains, or hills. It is estimated that Illinois con- tains more arable land than any other state in the Union. In that portion north of Kaskasia river the prairie coun- try predominates ; and it is computed that two thirds of the state are covered with this class of lands. Many portions of them are undulating, entirely dry, and abound in wholesome springs ; but as a general nile, they consist of plains ; and in the time meaning of the term, in French, they are " meadows," presenting every degree of fertility, down to extreme barrenness. Many of them exhibit alluvial deposites, which prove that they have once been morasses, and perhaps lakes. In numerous instances, there are thickets, or groves of timber, amid these prairies, containing from 100 to 2.000 acres each, which resemble oases in the desert, or is- lands in the sea. Along the borders of many of the streams are rich "bottoms," or alluvial deposites. The " American bottom" commences at the confluence of the Mississippi and Kaskaskia rivers, extending north- ward to the mouth of the Missouri, a distance of about eighty miles, and comprises an area of 288,000 acres. It is bounded on the east by a chain of " blurt's," some of which occur in parallel ridges, while others are of a conical shape, formed of lime-rock, from 50 to 200 feet in height. Rivers and Lakes. — The principal rivers are. the Mis- sissippi, which bounds the state on the west, the Ohio, which bounds it on the south, Kankokee, Kaskaskia, Sangamon, Little Wabash, Muddy, Saline, Rock, Em- barras. Fox, the Wabash, the principal river in the state, which forms a portion of the eastern boundary, Des Plaines, and Vermilion. Besides Lake Michigan, which lies on the northeast corner, this state contains Peoria hike, an expansion of Illinois river. Climate.— The climate of this state is generally healthy, and the air pure and serene, except in the vi- cinity of wet, low lands, or stagnant pools. The win- ters, which are cold, are somewhat milder than those of the Atlantic states in the same latitude. Snow seldom falls to the depth of six inches, and It as rarely remains on the ground more than ten or twelve days. The Mis- sissippi i& sometimes frozen over as far down as St. Louis, sufficiently sti'ong to be crossed on the ice. The summers are wf.rm. particularly in the southern part, but the intensity of the heat is modified by the breeze. Productive Resources. — The staple products are, horses, mules, neat cattle, sheep, swine, poultry, butter, cheese, wool, cotton, hemp, flax, hops, hay, wine, wheat, barley, buckwheat, potatoes, and Indian cora Among the mineral resources are, zinc, copper, iron, and lime. Bituminous coal may be found in nearly every county in the state. Common salt is procured by evaporatinpf the water of salt springs. The lead mines in the vicini- ty of Galena are very extensive, and of great value to the state. The mineral has been found in every portion ul uque w ■ar JIIC. I ®C4rroU\ O Gf L I 'JrandDetour f.

Maniifaclures.— In 1850 there virere, in Illinois, 3,090 mnnufftctunng establishments, producing each 8500 nnil upward annually. The ninnut'acturea consist mostly of woollen fabrics, machineiy, saddleiy, agri- culfurivl implements, &c. JRnilroads and Canals. — There are about 1,200 miles of railroad completed and in course of construction in this state; some of them, particularly the Central rail- road, are very important. The Illinois and Miihiunn canal, connecting the waters of Lake Erie, at C'liic»i;<), with those of the Illinois river at Pi-ru, i.^ one of the most important works of internal iiiipiovemeiit in the country. It is the connecting link ot itn uiilnoken in- ternal water comraunieation I'roin the Atlantic, ot^' San- dy Hook, New York, by the way ot the lakes, the Illi- nois arid Mississippi rivers, to the culf of Mexico. The canal is 113 miles long, 60 feet wide, and 6 feet deep, and designed for boats of 120 tons. It cost over $8,000,001). Oommerce. — The direct foreign commerce of Illinois is, of course, from its insular poi^ition, very small ; but its coastini: and lake trade is important, amounting, in 1850, to over' $10,000.00(1. EilnciUioii— The principal collegiate instit\itions in nhnois are, the Illinois college, at JacksonvilU', founded in 1829; the WKetuhv.' colli^ge, at Lebanon, in 1831; the Shurtleft"coll.-u'<-, at Ujiper Alton, in 1835 ; the Knox Manual Labor eoll.-£;e. at lialesbuii,', in lh37 ; and the College of St. Mary of the Lakes, at Chicago, in 18-lt). There are about 100 academies, and 2,000 common schools in the state. Oovenmeiit.—The legislative authority is vested in a senate, the members of which, 25 in number, are elect- ed for four years, one hali"every two years ; and a house of representatives, 75 in number, elected for two years. Senators must bo thirty years of age, and five years in- habitwits of the state. Uepresentatives must be twenty- five years of age, citizens of the United States, and three years inhabitants of the state. The executive power is vested in a governor and lieutenant-governor, chosen by a plurality of votes, once in four years, on the Tues- day after the first Monday in November, who must be thirty -five years of age, citizens of the United States for fourteen years, and residents of the state for ten years.

All white male citizens, 21 years of age, resident in tlie state for one year, may vote at elections. No state bank can be created or revived. Acts creating banks must be submitted to the people. Stockholders are individ- ually liable to till- amount of their shares. Population.— In Ir^lO, 12,2^2 ; in 1820, ii5,211 ; in 1830, 157.455; in 1810, 47t;. 183; in 18.")0, 851,470. Historu. — This state embraces a part of Upper Louis- iana, as held by the French prior to 1763, when it was ceded to Knglimd, togetlier with Canada and Acadia. The first pennanent settlement was made at Knskaskia, in 1685, althonsrh La Salle had built a fort, called Cre- vecceur, on Illinois river, five years before. At the close of the revolutionary war. in 1783, this country was claimed under the charter of Virginia, and hold by that state until ceded to the United States, in 1787. It was then made a part of the territory northwe.^t of Ohio river. When Ohio vras made a separate territory, * in 1800, Illinois and Indiana were formed into another territoi-y, and remained as such until 1809, when they were divided into two. In 1812, a territorial govern- ment was formed, with a legislature and one delegate to Congn>3s. In 1818 a state constitution was formed, and Illinois admitted into the Union as an independent state. The present constitution of the state was adopti\i by a state convention in August, 1847, and accepted by the people in March, 1848. Motto of the seal, " State Sovereignty; National Union."

INDIANA, one of the Uniti'd States, sit- uated between 37° 45' and 41'^ .V2' north lati- X\uU\ and 81'' 42' and bf<-' 12' longitude west iVom llrei'iuvicli ; and is liounded north by Michigan lake and state, east by a small ion of ilichigan, Ohio, andasmallpni-t of Kentucky, south- east l>y the Ohio riv- er, which separates it from Kentucky, and west by Illinois, from which it is separated in part by Wabash river. Its superficial area is 34,000 square miles. Physical Asj>cct.— In features, soil, and climate, Indi- ana forms a connecting link between Ohio and Illinois. It is more hilly than the latter, but contains no moun- tains. A range of high land, called the " Knobs," ex- tends from the falls o"f the Ohio to the Wabash, which in many places produces a broken surface. Bordering on all the principid streams, except tlie Ohio, are belts of "bottom" and prairie. Between the Wabash and Lake Micliigan the country is generally level, abound- ing alternately in woodlands, piairies, lakes, and swamps. A range of hills runs parallel with the Ohio, from tne mouth of the Great Miami to Blue river, alter- nately approaching to within a few rods, and receding to the distance of two miles. Immediately below Blue river the hills disanpear, and the coimtry immediately becomes level. The prairies of this state are of two kinds, the " river," and Uie "upland." The fonner are bottoms, destitute of timber ; the latter are from 30 to 100 feet or more in elevation, and are far more numer- ous and extensive. The soil of these plains, or table- lands, are often as deep and fertile as the best bottoms. The prairies bordering on the Wabtish are particularly rich, varying from two to twenty feet in depth. In truth, no state in the Union can show a greater extent of fertile land, in one body, than Indiana Rivers and Lakes.— IUhe principal rivers are, the IWAR/RE I pure 1^ ^£_--h___jCL-'*^''*>'^'" 7Cof)r»r/urs_4 -. \cl NoV I ^raiiJiforc \j'i P TO tilvrnrclfug ^ /tiL'i JC L IN TO nI^-?. •E^__\^J^ ^J'lDEf.AWARl \z)[^OUt^\CrM\jjrfd^u2irjanon \ Tc'^/^V^vwA-?^ 'randolphJ" 'MONTj, lORGAI IcC |||\PARk/El -H Krcrti, yiL.uU-icLA^.. , .„, ^ «Xo!/,,.|2;;J %^ ^^^lo^^J^'^^r.n,.r^ I o "^ [FRA(MI<|}» ORANGEI 1 _)^^*^-»-'-NLZ]-i^'' '^''■^'^ "f^'"«'^«XV^ toub O I S jC RAWFORDY! j,r^,, f"" ^Jmh^'M^M^ tj \ 'O |HA Yi ^ })nonu: -^ *^*M POSEYJ $ atiWiinUU /C RiJ c N ■ ^ tvay INDIANA ScalR of Miles I'o Jxnininiilp Wrsr from o Wrtshinonm^ IND 166 IND Ohio, which flows along the entire southern boundary ; the Wabash, which bounds the stflte partly on the west ; the Patoka, Tippecanoe, Eel, Salamanic, Plein, Theaki- ki, St. Mary's, St. Joseph's, White, Whitewater, and Kankakee, a branch of the Illinois. Besides Lolie Mich- igan, there are English and Beaver lakes, all of which lie at the northwestern part of the state. Climate.— The climate is generally healthy, and re- sembles that of Ohio and Illinois. lu all places sitiia- tcd near stagnant waters or sluggish streams, fevers and bilious attacks prevail during the hotter months of the year. The Wabash is generally closed in the winter, and may be safely crossed on the ice. In the central and southern parts of the state snow seldom falls to a greater deptli than six inches ; but in the northeni parts it is sometimes from a foot to eighteen inches deep. Productive Resources. — The staple productions of tliis state are, horses, mules, neat cattle, sheep, swine, poul- try, butter, cheese, wax, furs, skins, wool, sugar, wine, hops, Bay, hemp, flax, tobacco, wheat, barley, lye, buck- wheat, oats, potatoes, and Indian corn. Among the mineral resources may be mentioned, iron, coal, and Epsom salts. MaJiufactures.— In 1850 there wore in Indiana, 4.32G manufacturing establishments, which produced $500 and upward each annually. The total amount of man- utacturiug capital in the state was over $7,000,000, having more than doubled since 1840. Railroads and CsHaZs.— Indiana has about 1.000 miles of railroad already completed, and in successful opera- tion, and new lines projected. The principal canal in Indiana is the Wabash and Erie, 459 miles long, con- necting the waters of Lake Erie ^vith those of the Ohio river; nest in importance is the Whitewater canal, extending from Lawrenceburg to Cambridge, 76 miles. Commerce. — Indiana has no direct foreign commerce, its exports being shipped at the ports of other states. Its river and lake trade is considerable, and increasing. Education.— The collegiate institutions of Indiana are, the State University, at Bloomington, founded in 1827; Hanover College, at South Hanover, in 1829 ; Wabash College, at Crawfordsville, in 1833 ; Franklin College, at FrankUn, in 1837; Indiana Asbury University, in 1839; St. Gabriel's College, at Vincennes, in 1843. A law school is attached to the state university, and medical schools at Laporte and Indianapolis. There are about 100 academies and high schools in the state. The common school fimd is nearly a million of dollars. Population.— In 1800, 2,G40 ; in 1810, 24,520, exclu- sive of Indians; in 1820, 147,178, in 1830, 343,031; in 1840, 685,866; in. 1850, 988,410. Oovernment.— The legislative authority is vested in a senate and house of representatives ; the senate is not to exceed 50 members" elected for four years ; the rep- resentatives, not to exceed 100 in number, are chosen for two years. The executive power is vested in a governor, elected by the people for four years, but not eligible the next four years. A lieutenant-governor is also chosen in the same manner, and for the same term. The elections are held once in two years, on the second Tuesday in October. All elections by the people are by biUlot, and decided by a plurahty of votes ; all elec- tions by the lei^slaturo are viva voce. The legislature meets biennially, at Indianapolis, the first Monday in January. The judicial power is vested in a supreme court of not less than three, nor more than five judges, elected by tlie people at large, for a terra of six years ; in circuit courts, the judges of which (one in each) are elected by the people in each judicial circuit for a term of six years ; and in such inferior courts as the ledsla- ture may establish. The right of suffrage extends to every white male citizen of the United States, of the \ age of 21 years and upward, who shall have resided in \ the state during the six months immediately preceding an election. History.— This state embraces a part of the ancient ter- ritory of Upper Louisiana, as held l)y the French prior to 1763, when it was ceded to England, together vrith Canada and Acadia. The first permanent" settlement was made at Vincennes, in about the year 1690. At the close of the revolutionary war, and by the treaty of 1783, the country was claimed undoj- the charter of Vir- ginia, and held by that state xintil ceded to the United States, in 1787. It was then made a part of the terri- tory northwest of Ohio river. When Ohio was made a separate territory, in 1800, Indiana and Illinois re- mained united, and continued under one government until 1809, when each became a distinct territory. In 1816 Indiana was admitted into the Union as an inde- pendent state. A new constitution was adopted in 1851.

Indianapolis, city, seat ofjustice of Marion co,, and capital of Indiana, situated in the centre of the state, and on the east side of White river, in the midst of a rich and rapidly populating country, 108 miles northwest of Cincinnati, and 573 miles from Washington. Thirty years ago, a dense forest occupied the site of this city. In 1821, it became the seat of the state government, and has since continued to increase in population and pros- perity. It is laid out with ingenuity and beauty. A circular street surrounds an open space, with the gover- nor's mansion in the middle. From this diverge seve- ral streets, intersecting, diagonally, the others, which are rectana:ular. Besides a number of churches, mills, and factories, the city contains a splendid statehouse, 180 feet long, 85 wide, and 45 feet high, adorned by Ionic porticoes and columns, and surmounted by a dome. The courthouse is also a conspicuous edifice. White river is here spanned by an elegant bridge. The whole is an interesting specimen of industry, enter- prise, and thrift, and bids fair to become one of the prin- cipal cities in the west. When high, the river is navi- gable to this point for steamboats. Indianapolis is con- nected by railroad with Madison, on the Ohio, 86 miles distant, and railways also extend toward Peru, as well as toward Bc'llefontaine, in Logan county, Ohio. Pop. in 1830, was about 1,200 ; in 1840, 2,692 ; in 1850, 8,090. iNDiANAPOLis, p. o., Mahaska co., Iowa. Indian Cbeek, p. o., Monroe co., Val, 241 ms. \v. of Richmond ; from W. 278 ms.

H. INDIAN TERRITORY, a vast region set apart by the United States as the permanent home of certain In- dian tribes who have been removed thither, and natives of the soil, lies between 34" and 40'> north latitude, and 94^ 20' and 100* longitude west from Greenwich. It is bounded north by the Northwestern Territory, e/ast by Missouri and Arkansas, south by Texas and Sew Mex- ico, and west by Texas, New Mexico, and Utiih. Its superficial area is about 200,000 square miles. Physical Aspect. — The Ozark range of mountains tra- verse the southwestern corner of this tract From this point eastward the country jiresents a series of slightlv- undulating plains, gradually ascending toward' tlie Rocky mountains, where they have an elevation of 4,000 ING 167 low or 5,000 feet These mountains, forming the western boundary, rise to the elevation of 12,000 feet. The Great American desert stretches along the eastern part of the Rocky mountains, from the Noith%vestern terri- toiy through the Indian territory into Texas, a length of neariy 600 miles. Its width varies from 100 to 200 miles. The soil of this is arid, sterile, and almost desti- tute of trees, and even of shrubs. There are occasional plains and prairies, which afford subsistence to herds of bison, wild hov?fP, HTid otlmr nninv-ds. A belt of about 200 inilr's wiilc, iLiljninini; /i-l; ,n~;is and Missouri, is fa- voi'iii'- t'l ^;i'!!^'lIl'■ll^ IK' -Mil is fertile, and it is wa- tni il iiy iiiiiiicrous rivi is, iiijiir of which, however, are adapted to navigation. Rivirs. — The principal rivers are. Red river, Cana- dian, Arkansas, Neosho. Kansas, and Platte rivers, with their tributaries. The largest of these rivers rise in the Rocky mountains, and flow east into the Missouri and Mississijipi. Red river ami the Arkansas arc navigable nt ceifiiiii seasiins to within the Indian territory by stoniobi lilts, and the Kansas by boats. Climate. — The atmosphere is salubi-ious, and in the southern portion the climate is so mild, that domestic animals find support through the winter without the care of their owners. Resources. — Iron, lead, and coal, are abundant. The Indians have, in many instances, converted their settle- ments into well-cultivated farms, and the various grains, vegetables, and other agricultural products of corres- ponding latitudes east of the Mississippi, are raised in abundance. Population.— The inhabitants of the Indian territory consist of tribes indigenous to the country, and the tribes transported thither under the authority of the United States. The numbers belonging to each rlass and tribe, in 1841, were as follows: — Indigenous TVifies.— Pawnees, 12,500 ; Osages, 4,102 ; Kansas, 1,700 ; Omahas, 1,301; Otoes and Missouris, 931; Puncah=, 777 ; Quapaws, 400. Immigrant Tribes. — Cherokees, 2.3,911 ; Creeks, 24,594 ; Choctaws, 12,410 ; Seminoles, 3,130; Chippewas, Ottawas, &c., 2,028; Chickasaws, 4,111 ; Dclawares. 1,059 ; Kickapoos, 505 ; Peorias and Kaskaskias, 150 ; Piankeehaws, 98 ; Senecas from San- dusky, 125 ; Senecas and Shawnees, 211 ; Shawnees, 887 ; Stockbridges, Munsees, &c., 278 ; Swan Creek,- &c„' 02 ; Wcas, 176; Wiimebagoes, 2,182; Wyandots of Ohio, 385. Total, 96,020. Government. — The Cherokees, Creeks, and Choctaws, are the moat advanced toward civilization of any of the foregoing tribes. Tlicy have good houses, well-fenced and weir-tilled fields, and own horses and cattle to a coiisiileralile extent. They have also native mechanics anil 111' I'linnlM. They have adopted an improved sys- tem i.f LriiVi'ininent. The Choctaws and Creeks have a wiitten ei.iistifuHon ; and the former have introduced trial by jury. The other transported tribes are said to have improved in their condition since their removal from the esst. But the indigenous tribes have not, as a geni^ral thing, improved in the same degree as their brethren from the east. They still cling to their wild pleasures, and prefer the excitement of the hunt, and of war, to the peaceful monotony of civilization. Indiantown, p. v., CuiTituck co,, N.

IOWA, one of the Unitt>d .states, former- ly a portion of the Louisiana territory, situated between 40" 30- and 43=» 30' north latitude, and 90" 20" and 96° 50' west lon- gitude from Green- wich, and is bounded north by Minnesota, east by Mississippi riv- er, which separates it from Wisconsin and Illinois, south by Mis- souri, and west bv tho area is 50,000 square perficial Indian territory, miles. Physical Aspect. — The general surface of this state is moderately undulating, without mountains or high hills, except in the northem part, where the hills are of con- siderable height. Along the margins of the rivers there are frequent ranges of bluffs, which vary in height from 40 to 130 feet. In other instances, the streams are skirt- ed by rich " bottoms," covered with trees. A large pro- portion of the territoiy consists of prairies, some of which have a level, others a rolling surface. Tlie soil on the bottoms, as well as on the prairies, is generally good, the former consisting of a deep, rich, black mould, and the latter of a sandy loam, sometimes intermingled with gravel, or red clay. Rivers and Lakes.— The principal rivers are the Mis- sissippi, Des Moines, Iowa, Keosauque, Little Iowa, Turkey, Shunk, Red, Cedar, Maquekota, and Wabsi- pinecon. At the north part of the state there are nu- merous small lakes. Climate. — The climate is pleasant, and generally healthy, except near the borders of stagnant waters, or slugffish streams, whore, during the summer, bilious complaints, fevers, and agues, usually prevail. Snow rarely falls to exceed eight or ten inches in depth ; and the Jlississippi, at Prairie du Chien, is not frozen suffi- ciently strong to be crossed more than five or six weeks in the year. The summers are warm, but not oppres- sively so, and are refreshed by frequent showers. Productive Resources. — The staple products of this state are, horses, mules, neat cattle, sheep, svrine. poul- try, butter, cheese, wax, wool, hay, hemp, flax, skins, furs, sugar, tobacco, wheat, barley, rye, oats, buck- wheat, potatoes, and Indian com. Among the mineral resources are found lead, iron, copper, zinc, and coal ; but lead is the most abundant, and the mines are ex- tensively worked in the vicinity of Dubuque. Manufactures. — The manufacturing and mechanic arts have as yet but a slight foothold in Iowa ; but with its abundant water power and other resources, it un- doubtedly will not remain long as now almost entirely an agricultural state. Commerce.— ¥Yom its position, lying upon the Missis- sippi river, vrith-numerous navigable streams travers- ing its interior, Iowa possesses commercial advantages equal to those of any other western state. It contrib- utes largely to the valuable cargoes that are floated down the Mississippi to New Orleans. Educaiion.—There are two collegiate institutionB in low 169 ISL this state ; tlw Iowa univcrfiity, at lowu City, and the Franklin colloge, at Franklin. Tho constitution makes It imperative tLat a school shall be established in each district. All lands granted by Congress, and other spe- cified avails, constitute a fund to be applied to educa- tion. A special fund is also provided for the support of the state university. Population.— In 1840,43,111; in 1850, 192,214. Qovernment. — Tho legislative power is vested in a senate consisting of not more than one half, nor less than one third, of the number of representatives, and wlio are chosen for four years, one half biennially; and in a house of representatives, not less than thirty-nine, nor more than seventy-two in number, chosen for two years. The executive power is vested in a governor, chosen for four years. The judicial power is vested in a supreme Court, consisting of a chief justice and two associates, elected by the legislature for six years ; in district courts, the jndgos of which are elected by tho people for five years; and in justices of the peace.

History.— iowa. embraces a portion of the ancient ter- ritory of Upper Louisiana, the eastern border of which was explored by Marquette and Jolyet, in 1673. It re- mained under the jurisdiction of France until ITG.'i, when it was ceded to Spain. In 19')0 it was retroceded to France, who fonnally took poss'-ssion of the country, and sold the whole to the Unitfid states 'in 1803. Sub- sequently to this, Iowa constituted apart of tho territory of Louisiana, and afterward of tli at of Missouri. Until as late as the year 1832, the whole of this territory north of Missouri, which was admitted into the Union as a state in 1821, was in undisputed possession of the In- dians. By a treaty made in 1830, the Sacs and Foxes, then the principal tribes, had ceded to the United States the last of their lands east of tho Mississippi. In conse- quence of not leaving the territory, in compliance vnth tho treaty, arose the " Black Hawk war," which result- ed in the total defeat of tho Indians at the battle of Bad Ax, in Wisconsin, in 1832. In the autumn of that year a belt of country along the west side of the Mississippi, extending northward from Missouri for nearly 300 miles, anrl 50 miles in width, commonly known as the " Black Hawk purchase," was ceded by the Indians to the United States. In 183()-'37 further purchases were made, and in 1838 Iowa was erected into a territory. By another treaty in 1842, a tract of some 15,0UO,(JO0 acres more were purchased of the Sacs and Foxes for $1,000,000. From that time the Indian title became ex- tinct in the whole country lying within this state, which was admitted into the Union in 1846. This state is be- ing rapidly settled, and the tide of emigration now flow- ing westward will, at no distant day, make this one of the most populous states in the Union.

Iowa City, seat of justice of Johnson co., and capital of the state of Iowa, situated on the east bank of Iowa river, about 50 miles from its entrance into the Missis- sippi, and 75 miles northwest of Burlington. For ro- mantic and agreeable scenery, as well as in some meas- ure for commercial advantages, it is eminently worthy to be the seat of government of so flourishing a state. It is built on successive elevations, rising, like terraces, one above the other. Tho ground, near the river, is level and open. Above and beyond, upon two heights, run broad and beautiful avenues, and, at right angles to this, is " Iowa avenue," a magnificent street, at the head of which stands the statehouse, a splendid edifice of richly-variegated stone, called " bird's-eye marble." It is in the Grecian-Doric architecture, 60 feet wide, and 100 feet long, surmounted by a beautiful dome. There are churches, schools, stores, and all the accompani- ments of civilization and prosperity in tho west. The river is navigable to Iowa city for steamboats and ves- sels of ordinary draught, and navigation will doubtless be speedily improved by canals and other channels of intercommunication. The population in 1810, was 800 ; in 1850, 1,250. lowAviLLE, p. o.. Van Buren co., Iowa. Ipswich, c. h., p. t., seat of justice, together with Salem and Nowburyport of Essex Co., Mass., 26 ms. n.

Jersey City, Hudson co., N. J., is situated upon a peninsula, on the west bank of the Hudson, opposite tlie lower extremity of New York. In the days of the Revolution it was known as Paulus Hook, and was the scone of several events interwoven in American history. Upon the neck of the peninsula, a little in advance of Bergen hill, was (juite a strong fortification, which was occupied as o British outpost during a long period of the war. It was surprised, and its force made prison- ers, in July, 1779. by Major Henry Lee, and a part of his legion. Here the Paterson railway, connected with the Erie ; the Morris and Essex railway ; the Central railway, reacliing toward Easton, on the Delaware ; the New Jei-sey railway, extendina; to Trenton, and con- nertiiiff with routes to Philadelphia ; all have a termi- nus. Here, also, the Morris canal terminates, at>er pur- suing a circuitous route of 100 miles from the Delaware river. Here the CunaAi British Steam Navigation Com- pany have an extensive wharf, from which' tlieir mag- nificent ocean-steamers sail for Europe at regular inter- vals. Manufactories of vaiioxis kinds are giving to Jer- sey city the most active prosperity, and its population, like that of all the towns near New York, is rapidly in- creasing.

The whole state below the inountniiis rests on n bed of limestone, in grneral about eight feet b'^low the surface. The rivers have worn deep channels into this calcareous bed, forminff stupendous precipices, particularly on Ken- tiioky river, where the bunks in many places are 300 feet hish. Mammoth Cart— Tn the southwest part of the state, between Green and Cumberland rivers, are several wonderful caverns. The •' Miininioth Cave," in Kd- mondson county, 130 miles from I.exinjrton, near the road leading to Nashville, is some nine or ten miles in extent, with a sjreat number of avemies and intricate windings. Most of those caves yield an inexhaustible supply of nitrate of lime. Puring the late war with Great Britain, titYy men were constantly employed in lixiviating the earth of the Mnnnnoth cave, to obtain the saltpetre it contained ; and in about three years after the wa.shed earth is said to have become as strong- ly impi-egnated with nitric acid as at first. Moiiniains.—Thc Cumberland range, before referred to, fiM-ms the southeast boundary of this utate. Riverf.— The principal rivei-s are, the Ohio, Mississip- pi, Tennessee, Cumberland, Kentucky (Kutawa), Green, Licking, Salt, Rolling, and Big Sandy. Climate.— The climate through most of the state is generally healthy. The winters are mild, and usually of only two or three months' duration. Spring and autunni are delightfully pleasant. The extremes of season, however," are widened by the peculiar features of the country. Tlie rivers in their descent have abraded the plains, and flow in deep chasms or vales, which re- ceive the rays of the sun in various inclinations. In these situations the summers are hot, and the winters nii|^. Productive Resources.— The staple products of this state are, horses, mules, neat cattle, sheep, swine, poul- try, eggs, butter, cheese, wine, wax. susrar, tobacco, wool, cotton, hemp, flax, hay, lumber, wheat, barley, rye, oats, buckwheat, rice, potatoes, and Indian corn. Tobacco and hemp are the great staples of the state. Among the mineral resources are, iron, coal, salt, and lime. The salt springs are numerous, and not only supply this state, hut a great part of Ohio and Tennes- see, as well as other parts. Manufactures.— Ahout half a million of dollars is in- vested in cotton and woollen mamifactures in Ken- tucky, and about $200,000 in the manufacUiro of iron. Other principal manufactures are, cordage, cotton-bag- ging, hardware, tobacco, spirits, &c. In IguO, the num- ber of manufacturing establishments in the state, pro- ducinff S500 and over, each, annually, was 3,471. Railroads and Canals.— The principal railroads at present in operation in Kentucky are, the Louisville and Frankfort, fio miles, aiui the Frankfort and Lexington, 09 miles. Several important railroads are projected, whi(-h, when completed, will render easily accessible all the important points in the state. ^ Commerce. — In common with other inland states, Kennicky has no direct foreign commerce, but ships mostly at New Orleans. The river trade of this c tate is considerable. About 15,000 tons of shipping is owqed in the state. Education.— There are several collegiate institutions in Kentucky ; St. Joseph's, Centre, Augusta, Georire- town, and B'acon colleges ; and Louisville mid Tiansyl- vania universities, to both of wbicli l:iw ami medical schools are attached. There are also a tlieolDL'ical in- stitution at Covington, and the Westi-rn .Milit.-uy col- lege, at Blue-Lick Sprimrs. There are also, asylums for the blind, the deaf and dumb, and the insane. The state has a school fund of $1,300,000. Govemmait.— The Icgi.^lative power is vested in a senate and house of representatives, which together are styled the general assembly. The senators are 38 in nwmher, chosen by the people, fi-om single districts, for four years. Representatives, 100 in number, are chosen by the people for two years. A governor and lieuten- ant-goveniur are elected by the people for a term of four years. The governor is ineligible the immediately succeeding term. He may return a bill passed by the legislature, but a niajoritv of the members elected to each house may pass the liill afterwaid, and it then be- comes a law notwithstanding his objections. The gen- eral election fii-st Monday in August biennially. The state ofticers are elected by the people for a term of four years. The judicial power is vested in n court of appeals, circuit, and county courts; the judges of each are elected by the people. Every free, white, male citizen, 21 years of agt^ or over, resident in the state two years, and in the county where he oflers to vote one year, next preceding an election, may vote at such election. Elections by the people are viva voce.. Population.— \n 1790, 73.077 ; in 1800, 220.9.'55 ; in 1810, 40(i,.'-)ll; in 1820, .'i64,317; in 1830, 687,917: in 1840. 779.828; in 1850. 982.405.

History.— T\\e. first permanent settlement in Kentucky was made by Haniel Boone, in 177,5, though the coun- tiy had been visited by John Kinley, and otlliers, as early as 1769. In 1777, the legislature of Virginia made it a county, and in 1782 a supreme court was established. In about the year 1776. the region south of Kentucky river was purchased of the Cherokees, who called their domain " Transylvania" (beyond the woods). In 1786, an act was passed by Congress, erecting the district of Kentucky into a new territory; but' the separation from Virginia did not take place before 1790, when it was admitted into tlie Union as an independent state. The first constitution was adopted in 1790, which was superseded by a new one in 1799, and that by the pres- ent one in 18.50. Motto of its seal, " United we stand, divided we fall."

In the midst of the beautiful and fertile valley of Cones- toga creelv, it constitutes the centre of an extensive trade with the surrounding region, and a thoroughfare between Philadelphia and the west. This is one of those towns which are interesting for both age and prosperity. Some of its buildings are antiquated ; others are modem ; but generally all are neat and pleasant. By a series of dams and locks, forming the Conestoga canal, the navigation of the creek has been improved to the Susquehanna, a distance of 18 miles. The manufiicturing establishments are various and flourishing.

LOUISIANA, one ot the United States, so called by La Salle, in 1682, in honor of hi" royal patron, Lou- is XIV., of France. It is situated between 29" and 330 north la- titude, and 88° 40* and 94° 25' west lon- gitude from Green- wich ; and is bound- ed north by Arkansas and Mississippi, east liy Mississippi, from which it is separated by Mis.'^i'^sipiii and Pearl rivers, southeast and south by the giilt ot Mexico, and west by Texas, from which it is separated in part by Sabine river. Its superficial area is 46.341 square miles. Phyncal Aspect.— The entire border of the state, from Pearl river to the Sabine, presents itself in a vast tract of irreclaimable sea-marsh, from 20 to 30 miles in width, extending farthest inland in the regions between the streams ; for it is a singular feature, in all the rivers which flow into this part of the Mississippi, that narrow LOU 197 LOU «Jrips of arable land, of greater or loss width, occur on their banks, extending far beyond the interior hniits of the eea-mareh; none, however, retain tliese elevated borders to the Mexican gulf. Contiguous to the sea- marsh are vast prairies, with which tlie former has often been confounded, in consequence of their simi- larity in appearance. On the waters of the Sabine, Calcasieu, and Mermentau, the prairies have generally a thin, sterile soil, while on the Vermilion, Teche, and Cortableau, they are almost uniformly good. The al- luvial banks of the rivers of Louisiana, in tiieir natural state, are more or less subject to inundation ; but in many cases, where valuable tracts are situated in the rear of the elevated strips on their borders, in order to prevent them from being overflowed, artificial embank- ments, or dikes, called " levees," are raised, on the mar- gins of the streams. These arable river-borders are usually composed of a fine, loose, rich soil ; but the in- terior plains are hard, stiff, and less fertile. In some instances, when these plains Are laid dry, the soil be- comes almost as hard as stone. Taken as a whole, Louisiana consists of inundated and non-inundated lands. Above the mouth of Red river, the tract liable to periodical inundation is narrow ; but below that stream it widens and expands like a fan, and tinally em- braces the whole gulf border. All of the soil, sufficient- ly elevated for cultivation within the inundated region, is of superior quality. The northeni part of the state has an undulating surface. Northward from the prairies of Opeiousas, and westward of the inundated border near the Mississippi, lies what has been denominated the " pine region." The surface has been somewhat broken into hills, though of moderate elevation, and within the tract some snow, and even waterlalls appear. The banks of the Vermilion, which are geneially fertile, are high, broken, and diversified, above the termination of the timber near the sea-marsh. The country between the Mississippi, Iberville, and Pearl rivers, is an impor- tant part of the state. The southern or level portion is highly productive of the staple crops, and the northern portion, which is undulating, has been considered as the " garden of Louisiana." Rivers, Lakes, and Bays. — Louisiana is intersected by 'numerous, creeks (bayous), and lakes, dividing the state into a great number of islands, or "deltas," similar in some respects to those at the mouths of the Ganges, the Nile, and the Parana. The principal rivers aie, the Mississippi, Pearl, Bogue Chitto, Chifuncte, Tangipao, I'ickfoha, Lafourche, Teche, Vermilion, Tensas," Red, Mermentau, Atchafalaya, Amite, New, Calcasieu, Black, Bodcau, Dachcet, Saline, Wachita, Plaquemine, and the Sabine. The principal lakes mo, Ponchartrain, Maure- pas, Brogne, Chetimaches, MermciitHU, Calcasieu, and Sabine. The chief bays are, Vermilion, Cote, Blanche, Atchafalaya, Timbalier, West, and Chandeleur. Climate. — In the southern part of the state the climate, in summer, is hot, sultry, and unhealthy ; in the north- ern part it is more temperate and salubrious. The winters are usually mild, though snow sometimes falls at Opelousas, from ten to twelve inches deep: such instances, however, are rare. The creeks and ponds at New Orieans are sometimes closed with ice, and enow has been known to fall sufficiently deep for sleighing. Productive Resources— The staple products are, cot- ton, sugar, molasses, tobacco and rice. This state also produces to some extent, horses, mules, neat cattle, sheep, swine, poultry, wool, hay, lumber, tar, turpen- tine, wheat, rye, oats, potatoes, Indian corn, wine, oranges, and figs. Manufactures. — The manufactures of Louisiana are confined chiefly to the eastern portion of the state. In 1850 there were 1,021 manufacturing establishments producing $500 and upward annually. The articles manufactured are principally to supply the immediate wants of the community. Railro(/,ds and Canals. — Louisiana is so well provided with navigable channels, that little attention has been given to artificial means of interna! communication. The public mind, however, has recently been awakened to the subject, and we may confidently predict that this state will ere long be traversal by iron bands, connect- ing New Orleans with important points within her own borders, and extending to other states. At pres- ent there are but about 50 miles of railroad and 100 miles ol canal in the state. Commerce.— T\v? exports and imports of Louisiana are about $50,000,000 annually. Its coasting and river trade amounts to about double that sum. Sliipping owned within the state is about 250,000 tons. Education. — The principal collegiate institutions in Louisiana are, the St. Charles college, at Grande Coteau, founded in 1833, the Baton Rouge college, in 1838, the Franklin college, at Opelousas, in 1839, the Centenary college of Louisiana, at Jackson, in 1841, and the Uni- versity of Louisiana, at New Orleans. There are about 100 acad(!mies and 300 common schools in the slate. Population.— In 173',>, about 7,500 ; in 1810, 7(),556 : in 1820, 1.53,407; in 1830, 215,739; in 1840, 352,411; in 1850, 517,739. Number of slaves in 1800, 3,489 ; in 1810, 34,6(;0; in 1820, 69,0()4 : in 1630, 109,588; in 1840. 168.452 ; in 1850, 244,786. Government. — The legislative power is vested in a senate and house of representatives. The senators, 32 in nunfter, are elected by the people, by districts, for the term of four years, one half being chosen every two years ; the representatives are elected by the people, by parishes, for a term of two years. The number of reprrsontatives can not be more than 100, nor less than 70, divided among the parishes, according to their total population, but each parish is entitled to a representa- tive. The executive power is vested in a governor, who is elected by the people, for a term of four years, and is ineligible for the next four years. The elections are held in November, and the legislature meets bien- nially at Baton Rouge the third Monday in January. The judicial power is vested in a supreme court of five judges, which has appellate jurisdiction only, and such interior courts as the legislature may establish. The chief justice is elected for ten years, and the associate judges for eight years. The right of suffrage is ex- tended to all white males, above 21 years of age, who have resided in the state one year, and in the parish six months, next preceding the election. All citizens are disfranchized, both as to voting and holding office, who may fight, or in any way be connected with fighting, a duel, with a citizen of the state, either in or out of it The coii-liiutiuu provides for the establishment of free public sclidols thr(]ughout the state. H>>iory.—\Aai'\Aan:i embraces a part of the ancient territory iieariiig this name, once so comprehensive, in- cluding the entire valley of the Mississippi and its trib- utiiry streams, consisting of all the present states of Texas, Louisiana, Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee, Kentucky. Ohio, Indiana, Michigan, Wisconsin, Min- nesota, Illinois, Iowa, Missouri, Arkansas, and Califor- nia, a portion of Mexico, North Carolina, Virginia, and Pennsylvania, and all the undefined regions between the Rio del Norte and the northern sources of the Mis- sissippi, extending westward to the Pacific. It also constitutes a portion of Florida, as named by Ponce de Leon, in 1513. The first permanent settlement in the present Louisiana was made at New Orleans, in 1718, hy the emigrants of the " Mississippi Company," under the auspices of John Law, who received a royal grant the j'ear before of a complete monoply of the trade and mines of the territory oi twenty-seven years. In 1732, for the want of success, this company surrendered its chartered rights to Louisiana, and the control of its commnrce reverted to the king. In 1763, France was compelled to cede to England, not only Canada and Acadia, but all of Louisiana east of the filississippi, as far south as the river D'lberville, and thence all their territory north and east of a line running along that stream and Amite river, through Lakes Maurepas and Ponchartrain, to the Mexican gulf. The same year she formed a treaty with Spain, surrendering the remain- ing portion of Louisiana, not ceded to England, and thus deprived herself of all her possessions on the con- tinent of North America. In 1800, it was retroceded to France by a secret treaty, who formally took posses- sion of the country, in 1803, and immediately sold it to the United States for .$15,000,000. In the meantime the Revolution had occurred, and all the former territory of Louisiana, lying east of the Mississippi, which had been ceded to England in 1763, had also become a part of the Union. By an act of Congress, in 1804, Louisi- ana was definitely subdivided ; the noithem part, above latitude 31", was called "The Territory of Mississippi," and the lower division, " The Territory of Orleans." In 1811, the latter was authorized to form a constitution of government, which, together with that portion of We73. Lower Penn's Neck, t., Salem co., N. J., 60 ms. s. of Trenton ; from W. 171 ms.

It occupies a delightful position on a strip of land between Third and Fourth lakes, two of a chain of four beautiful sheets of water, not far apart, and connected by streams. It is 90 miles w. of Mil- waukie ; from W. 847 ms. From the former lake, the shore rises abruptly 50 feet, and, gradually, 20 feet higher. Upon this elevation stands the statehouse, a prominent structure of stone, in the centre of a larse park, which overlooks an enchanting panorama of lakes, lawns, groves, hills, vales, and windins streams. Toward Fourth lake, the ground again descends with different degrees of steepness, the whole distance from one shore to the other being about three fourths of a mile. The university of Wisconsin is delightfully situ- ated upon an eminence, 125 feet above the^lakes. The beauty and healthfulness of location, central position, business, and political advantages of Madison, are ele- ments of permanent prosperity,~if not of rapid progress, and it bids fair to become one of the largest towns in the state.

MAINE, one of the United (States, ly- ing on its nortlieast- erii border, so called ed from Maine, a de- partnient of France, ot which Henrietta M in 1, queen of En g- 1 m ], was proprie- t 11 It lies between 4J^ .V and 47^ 20' noith latitude, and bb^ 49' and 71 '^ 4' west longitude from Greenwich, and is bounded north by Cin id ( I" I t ti in which it is «epar in d by the river St, John - ei~t bv N w Biun-wick tiom \v bich it is sepa- rated m part by the. fct. Cr^.x, south by the Atlantic, west by New Hampshire, from which it is separated in part by Piscataqua and Salmon Falls rivers, and north- west by Canada East. Superficial area, 32,628 square miles. Physical Aspect. — On the seaboard the surface is gen- erally level, though not very fertile. Some ten or twenty miles backlhe soil is-sandy, gravelly, clayey, or loamy„Eeldom very rich, but tolerably fertile in some places, though oftener poor. In the tract lying north of this, extending from fifty to ninety miles from the sea, the same kinds of soil are found, but generally more fertile. The surface rises into large swells of generally good soil, between which, along the margins of the streams, are frequently rch "intervale," or allu- vial lands ; while in other places sandy or gravelly pine plains occur, or spruce or cedar swamps. In the central parts of the state, the surface is more broken ; and in many of the river valleys the soil is not exceeded In fertility in any of the other New England state?. At the extreme north the country is less "hilly, and is but little settled. Mountains. — On the western side of the state, a little to the eastward of the White mountains, in New Hamp- shire, an irregular chain of high lands commences and extends northeastwardly, more or less interrupted, to the easterly boundary of the state, tei-minatins at an isolated peak, 1,683 feet in height, called Mars hill. Katahdin mountain, which may be considered as a part of the above-named range, is much the highest land in the state, being 5,335 feet above the level of the sea. Agamenticus, which is of considerable elevation, is in York, near the southwest corner of the state. Rivers, Lakes, and Bays. — The principal rivers are the Penobscot, Kennebec, Androscoggin, Saco, Sheep- ecot. Dainariscotta, Machias, Salmon Falls, Piscataqua, St. Croix, and the St. John's. The lakes, or ponds, are rather numeious, the most noted of which are Moose- head, Umbagog, Sebago, Schoodic, Chesuncook, Peraa- dumcook, and Mooselogmaguntic. The principal bays are Casco, Penobscot, Frenchman's, Englishman's, Ma- . chias, and Passamaquoddy. Islands. — The chief islands are Mount Desert, Deer, Loni, Boon, Fox, and Cranberry. Climate. — Although the climate is subject to great extremes of heat and cold, the air in all parts of the state is salubrious and pure. Near the ocean and bays, the heats of summer are greatly tempered by the breezes ; and the rigors of winter, though severe, are more uniform and less trying to health" than in many situations farther south, 'fheranfre of the temperature varies from 100° Fahrenheit to 27^ below zero. Snow often lies upon the ground from four to five months in the year. Productive Resources. — The principal products of the state are horses, neat cattle, sheep, swine, poultry, wool, butter, cheese, sugar, hay, wheat, rye, barley, oats, po- tatoes, and Indian corn. Among the other resources are lime, lumber, ice, and fish. Matiufactures. — There are about twenty cotton, and double that number of woollen factories in the state. Ship-building is also extensively carried on. Railroads and Canals. — The railroads already com- pleted in Maine are of essential value to the interests of the state. Thjy extend about 500 miles, and connect Portland, the commercial capital, with important points in Maine, and with Boston and Montreal. The only canal in this state is the Cumberland and Oxford canal, connecting Portland with Sebaso pond, 20 miles, and by a lock in Sago river, naviaation is extended to Long pond, 31 miles tarther. It co'st about $250,000. Commerce. — The commerce and navigation of this state are mostly confined to coasting and fishing. Its principal exports are lumber, stone, lime, fish, prepared meats, &c. Its commerce with foreign states, in 1850, amounted to about two and a half millions of dollars ; and the shippinc; owned within the state to somewhat over half a million of tons. Education. — The common schools in Maine are sup- ported by the districts in which they are located. They number over 5,000.

History. — This state embraces a part of New France, as named by Verrazanni, in 1524 ; or a portion of Aca- dia, as granted to De Monts in 1603 ; or a part of North Virginia, or the Plymouth Company, as claimed by the English in 1606 ; or, more recently, a part of the terri- tory of the " Council of Plymouth," chartered in 1620. In 1622, a grant was made to Ferdinand Gorges and John Mason, of all the country between Merrimack and Kennebec rivers, extending interior to the lakes and rivers of New France, or Canadas, which they called "Laconia." In 1629, that portion of this tract lying be- tween the Merrimack and Piscataqua, extending sixty miles from the sea, was conveyed to Mason alone, and then first received the name of " New Hampshire." In 1639, Gorges obtained a royal charter, constituting him lord proprietor of the province ; but, from bis stately scheme of government, the people became dissatisfied, and sought protection of Massachusetts, who took them under her jurisdiction in 1652, and called it the county of Yorkshire. In 1677 she purchased the claims of the heirs of Gorges, as to both jurisdiction and soil. In 1686 Sir Edmund Andros was appointed royal governor over all New England. Plymouth, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Rhode Island, immediately submitted to his jurisdiction. A few months after Connecticut was added, and in 1688 his power was further extended over New York, and New Jersey. In 1691, Pl>-mouth, Massachusetts, Maine, Acadia, or Nova Scotia, were formed into one royal colony, under Governor Phipps, upon which Plymouth lost her separate government, contrary to her wishes ; while New Hampshire, then under the protection of Massachusetts, was forcibly severed from her. Massachusetts obtained a confirma- tion of her charter, and, through long disputes with the Indians and the French, those additions to lier territoiy were maintained under her jurisdiction until she be- came an independent state. The first settlement made in Maine was by the " Sagahahock colony," which con- sisted of one hundred planters, under the command of George Popham. They landed at the mouth of the Kennebec, in 1607 (thirteen years before the settlement of Plymouth), at the place now called Hill's Point, Phippsburg, and erected a few cabins, a storehouse, and some slight fortifications, naming their plantation " St. George." Seventy -five of the number were left to pass the winter, who lost their storehouse by fire, and their president by death ; and the year following they MAN 205 MAN Tilinndoned tho enterprise, nnd returned to England.

MARYLAND, one of the United States, named in hon- or of Henrietta Maria, queen of Charles I., and dauffhter ofHcn- IV IV., of France. It i-; sitnat.M l,rtu-een :;s" nini :)ii" ■(::' north laliln,!.. and 7.-." 10' ami 7!)-" 20' west lon- gtude, from Cirecn- wicli,and is bounded north by P(-nn.sylva- nia and Delaware ; east by Delaware and the Atlantic : south by Virginia and Chesapeake bay ; and Bouthvvfest and weet by Virginia, from which it is separated in part by the Potomac. Its supeilicial area is 13,959 square miles. Physical Aspect.— This state may be said to embrace the three great zones of soil, alluvial, hilly, and moun- tainous. In the counties on the eastern side of the Chesapeake, with the exception of a small part of the northern oxtreniity, is an extensivt; plain, low and sandy, and much intersected by rivers and creeks, having but few springs, and abounding, in niatiy jilnccs, with stagnant pools. Tlie land in this portion of the peninsula is ot much better quality than in the Dela- ware part. The country, on the western shore of the Chesapeake, below the falls of the rivers, is similar to that on the eastern side. Above the falls the surface becomes gradually uneven and hilly, and in the west, em part of the state it is mountainous. There is much good soil existing in every section of the state ; but the most productive in grain and fruits are some of the limestone tracts in the western counties. Mountains. — Several branches of the Allegany chain cross the state from Pennsylvania to Virginia, the prin- cipal of which are. North mountain. South mountain, Warrior's, Sugar-loaf, Savage, Will's mountains, and Sidling hill. Rivers and Bays.— Tho principal rivers are, the Poto- mac, Susquehannah, Patapsco, Patuxent, F.Ik, Sassafra-s, Chester, Choptank, Nanticoke, Pokonioke, St. Mary's, and the Severn. Chesapeake bay runs through the state from north to south, dividing it into two parts. The part east of the bay is called the " Easteni Shore," and the portion adjoining the bay on the west is called the " Western Shore." Sinepuxent bay lies near the Atlantic coast, and is connected to the ocean by an inlet of the same name. Climate. — In the eastern part nf the stnte the climate in summer is moist, sultry, miil .n<;p;r.,;ilili', and the inhabitants are subject to a.un' - inn niniiriit.u, and bil- ious attacks; but in thcwc.-lMn i.m.ai-, inward Vir- ginia, where the land is nion) cUnaled, liie climate is agreeable and highly salubrious. Productive Resources. — The chief products are, horses, mules, neat cattle, sheep, swine, poultry, butter, cheese, sugar, wax, hops, tobacco, wool, cotton, silk, hemp, flax, hay, wheat, rye, oats, barley, buckwheat, potatoes, and Indian corn. Among the mineral resources are, bog iron ore, bituminous coal, porcelain and other clays, red and yellow ochre, chrome ores, alum earth, and copperas. Manufactures. — In manufiictures, Maryland occupies a respectflble position. Numerous woollen and cotton mills, copper and iron-rolling mills, are established near Baltimore, and also scattered over other parts of the state. Silk, flax, and mixed goods, are also manufac- tured to a considerable extent Tanneries are numer- ous, and ship-building is carried on extensively. The flour of Maryland is considered second to none in the market. The capital invested in manufactures is about $12,000,000. Railroads and Canals. — The great chain of southern railroads traverses this state. "The Baltimore and Ohio railroad, extending from Baltimoro to Wheeling, 178 miles, i.s a niagiiiticent work. Other lines intersect the state in ditlinoiit directions. The Chesapeake and Ohio canal, from Georgetown, D. C, to Cumberland, 184 miles long, lies nio.sMy in this state. It is intended to continue it to Pittsburgh, Pa., 340 miles. Commerce. — The imports and exports of Maryland are about $14,000,000 annually. The shipping owned within the state is about 2,000,000 tons, about one half of which is engaged in the coasting trade. Education. — There ai-e several colleges in Maryland. Washington college, at Chestertown, lounded in 1783, is the oldest ; St. John's college, at Annapoli.s, founded in 1784, is next. Besides these are, the Univer.sity of Maryland, and the St, Mary's, both of Baltimore ; Mount St. Mary's, at Emmitsliurg, and St. Janus, near IJagers- town. Tliere are two medical pcIhjuIs at r.altiniore. There are besides, in the st.atc, .M.nul, L'od acaaemies and grammar-schools, nnd K(l() ((iiriiiinir mImxiIs.

Government. — The legislative power is vested in a MAS 211 MAS Fenatp. and h house of delegiitRs. Tho eenators are elpctcd liy the people for a toVin of four jeare. one half of thein being chosen biennially. One senator is chosen from each county, and one from the city of Baltimore ; makin;,' the present number of senators twenty-two. The members of the house of delegates nro elected by the people once in two years, and until the apportion- ment to be made under the census of 1860, are seventy- two in number. The executive power is vested in a <;overnor, who is chosen by the people, for a term of four years. The state is divided into three districts, and the governor is taken from each of the three dis- tricts altenuitely. The judicial power is vested in a court of appeals, in circuit courts, courts for the city of Baltimore, and in justices of the peace, all elected by the people. The judges of the court of appeals, four in numlirr, and the circuit judges, eight in number, are chosen for ten years. The general election is held on the firist Wednesday in Novt'mber. biennially. The constitution conveys the right of suffrage on every free white male citizen, of 21 y^,r,:„„f, the abo- iiL'inil ii.iinenfBlue Hill, a few miles s. of Boston. It lies between 41° 23' and 42*^ 52' north lati- tii.le, and 69° 50' and 73° 30' west lon- gitude from Green- wich ; and is bound- ed north by Vermont and New Hampshire ; east by the Atlantic ; south by Rhode Island and Connecticut ; and west by New York. Its superficial area is 7,500 square miles. " Physical Aspect. — The surface of this state is greatly diversified, and the soil may bo divided into three dis- tinct zones — mountainous in t!ie western, hilly in the central and northern, and level in the southeastern sec- tions. .Salt marshes aic nuiiicinns on most of the mar- itime border. The s^nili-: excccdinijly varied. In the southeastern part it is nidstly liglit and sandy ; inter- spersed,, however, with numerous spots that are fertile. In tho middle and northern sections, particularly toward the seaboard, it is of much better quality, but distin- guished more for its superior cultivation, than its natu- ral fertility. The more western parts, especially in the valley of the Connecticut river, have generally a strong, rich soil, excellent for grazing, and suited to most of the purposes of farming. MountaiHS.—The Green mountain range passes throuiih the western part of the state, from noith to south." The principal chain takes the name of Hoosac mountiiins, tlic Inrlicst snmniit- of which are the Saddle and Ta-lik:,iiic.

Commerce — The coiinner((! of Massachusetts centres chiefly at Boston, and is inferior only to that of two other states (New York and Louisiana) in the Union. Its exports and imports in IB.'iO were over forty millions of dollars. Amount of shipping owned within the state, 685,442 tons. Educatio7i. — The university of Cambridge is the old- est and best-endowed school ill tlie United States; at- tached to it are schools of law, luedieiiie, divinity, and scienca. Williams' college, at William town, and Am- herst college, are also flourishing institutions. At An- dover, Newton, and Worcester, theological seminaries are established. Academies and common schools exist throuchout the state.

Government. — The executive power is \ cstec] in a a-ov- omor, lieutenant-governor, and council; and the legis- lative power, in a senate of forty memlieis, and a house of representatives ; all elected annually, by tbi' jieople, on the second Monday in Noveniher, excepting the council, wbieli is cl risen \,y the legislature. Tiie .iudi- ciary is vested in asuiireme court, court of common plea,s, and such other courts as the leaislature may es- tablish. The judges are appointed by the governor, and hold their offices during good behavior. The right of suffrage is enjoyed by every male citizen, twenty-one years of age (excepting paupers, and (lersons under guardianship), who bus resided in the state one year, and in the election district six months, and shall have paid a state or county tax (or been exempted there- from) two years next precedinj any election. Hi.story.-.The coasts of Massachusetts, after Cabot and Cartier's voyages, were annually visited for trade with the natives, and for fishing, yet little was known of the interior, until Captain Smith, the hero of Vir- ginia, explored its shores from the Penobscot to Cape Cod, and penetrated its interminable forests. It was Smith who gave that whole country the name of New England. That region was not permanently settled until 1 (520, when a party of 101 Independents, who had fled from England to Holland, in 1608, in consequence of perse- cutions, obtained a grant of land from the Virginia Com- jiany, intending to settle within their jurisdiction. But through accident or treachery, they reached the coast within the jurisdiction of the Plymouth Company,* from whom they subsequently obtained a patent. The great moral sjiectacle which this little company of emi- grants presented, can not be passed unnoticed. De- prived of the privi!(>ge of worshipping God according to the dictates of their own consciences and judgments, they left Knaland, with their jiastor, John Robinson, and became voluntary exiles in Holland, They cherish- ed the sentiment, however, "England, with all thy faults, I love thee still," and they felt a yearning to live where they might retain their language and laws in their purity and strength. They therefore turned their thoughts toward the wilds of America, where no re- straining power should interfere with their religious privileges ; and obtaining a grant from the London or Virginia Company, they left belft Haven, in Holland, in August 1, 1620. in the Speedwell. They were joined at Southampton, England, by the May-Flower, bearing a number of busines!s men of London, who had formed a partnership with those from Holland. The Speedwell, however, proved unseaworthy, and the whole com- pany, numbering in men, women, and children, as be- fore remarked, 101 souls, sailed from Plymouth in the IMay-Flower on the 16th of September. They reached the American coast, and descried the bleak hills of Cape Cod, on tho 19th of November. For a month they laid at anchor, and in the meanwhile they entered into a solemn political compact, and chose John Carver their governor for the first year. Exploring parties were sent nsliore to tinil a good place for settlement; and on the 21st of Deceiiilier the harbor of Plymouth was sounded, and found tit for shipping, and the shore well- watered and wooded, and there they landed, and com- menced a settlement. They named the place New Plymouth, and soon afterward obtained a charb>r. In 1628, the Plymouth council granted to a number of non- conformists, of Devonshire, the territory of New Eng- land, lying between the Merrimack and Charles rivers, and three miles beyond, and extending to the South sea. A company of jilanters, with their families, wero sent out, and founded the tovm of Salem. In 162!), the patentees obtained a charter from Charles I., confirm- ing the grant of the council, and incorporating them under the name of the Governor and Company of Mas- sachusetts Bay. Subsequently to this period, oilier uraiita and acci'ssions were made, and the colony of Massa- chusetts extended its jurisdiction over the |)Veseiit state of Rhode Island, a part of Connecticut, New llampshiie, Maine, and Acadia. In 1641, the settlements of New Hampshire were incorporated with Massachusetts. In 1643, the four colonies, Massachusetts, Plymouth, Con- necticut, and New Haven, entered into artiides of con- federation, under the title ot tlie " United Colonies of New England." In llLrJ. Maine jilaced itself under the protection of Massachusetts, called the county of " Yorkshire," and remained a part of her territory, with some modifications, until it became a sovereign state. In 1686, the charter government of Massachusetts Bay was taken from her, and a president placed over the dominion from Narraganset bay to Nova Scotia. The same year. Sir Edmund Andros arrived at Boston, with a commission as royal governor of all New England. Plymouth, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Rhode Island, immediately submitted to bis jurisdiction. A few months after, ('oniiecticur was added, and in 1688, his power was fnrtlier extended over New Jers(\v and New York. In l(i8!>. Plymouth was united to Massa- chusetts by royal onler.'and its old charter confirmed. In Itiltl, I'iymouth, Massachusetts, Maine, and Acadia, were formed into one royal colony, under the name of "Massachusetts." In 1699, New Hampshire and Mas- r.on.liiM, ami called the T,.inil.,n C,m^■■.m^■ l.ir tlie settle- iiiiith VirRilim. It w,i3 stiiiulatnl lli.-it rieillier should form eiit within a hundred miles of the other. MAU 214 McB sachusctt? were placed under the jurisdiction of New York, but were ngain reunited in 1702, and thus con- tinued until 17-11, when a final separation took place. In confonnity to tlie original grant of the Plymouth Company, Mussachusetts claimed im indefinite extent of country westward, which was adjusted with New Yorls, by ceding all her territoi-j' west of a line, running north and south, one mile east of Geneva, and was known as the " Genesee Country." In 1776, on the declaration of independence, Massachusetts formed a state constitution, which went into operation in 1780, and, with the exception of the amendment in 1820, is the same as the one of the present day. In 1778, it rati- fied the constitution of the United States. Tlie motto of the seal is, Ense petit placidam sub libertate qiiktem — " By his sword he seeks the calm repose of liberty."

MICHIGAN, one of the United StJit*\s, consisting of two dis- tinct peninsulas, and is situated between 41» 48' and 47-' 3(V nortli latitude, and Si" 20' and JJO" 10' ingitnde west from GrfH>nwich. Michi- gan pi^nier, or the lower peninsula, is bounded north by the straits of Macki- naw, which separate it from the upper .ake Huron, which separates it from Canada West, east by Lake Huron, the river St Clair. Lake St. Clair, the river Detroit and Lake Erie, which separate it from Canada West, south by Ohio and Indiana, and west by Lake Jlichisjan, and contains 39,856 square miles. The upper peninsula, which is an-" iiexed to Micliisan proper, merely for the temiiorary purposes of civil government, is bounded north by Lake Superior; easterly by St Mary's river, which separates it from Canada West, southerly by Wisconsin, Lakes Michiffan and Huron, and Mackinaw straits, and con- tains 20.664 square miles ; making the total superlicial area 60.520 square miles. Physical Aspect.— Tl\e surface of Michigan proper is less vaiied than any other section of equal extent in the United States. The dividing ridge, or taWe land, which separates the sources of thc^Great Miami and Maumee faim those of the Wabash, is continued in a northerly direction across the lower peninsula, dividing it into two inclined plains, more or less rollinc, one sloping toward Lake Jlichignn on the west and the other toward Lakes Huron, St Clair, and Erie, on the east This table-land is interspersed with marshes and small lakes, from which issue the head branches of tlie prin- cipal streams. Small prairies occur from the banks of the St. Joseph's to Lnke St Clair, the soil of some of which is excellent, while that of others is sandy, sterile, or wet ; but a greater portion of the country is covered with dense forests, the soil of which is well adapted to the production of most kinds of northern farm-crops. The trans-peninsula, or northern division, is diversified by mountains, hills, valleys, and plains. A range of high lands nins nearly throughout ttie length of the pen- insula, rising gradually from" the shores oT Lakes Michi- gan and Superior toward its summit The surface in the region of Keweenaw point is broken and rollinar, and some of the hills are elevated nearly 900 feet above the level of the lake. From its high latitude and sterile character, this division of the state does not promise much to agriculture ; though there are many fertile tracts, particularly in the prairies on the eastern part of this peninsula, as well as in the valleys, which are highly productive, when cultivated with appropriate crops. Isle Royale presents a broken and rnirged out- line on its coast, and is deeply indented by long and narrow inlets and bays. About one fourth of this island is sandstone and conglomerate rock. The i-emninder consists of trap-rock, "which lies in ridges from 300 to 500 feet in height above the lake, and extending in a broken line throughout the isle. Mountains. — Porcupine mountains, which fonn the dividing ridge between Lakes Superior and Michigan, toward the western boundary of the state, are repre- sented to be elevated from 1,800 to 2,000 feet above the lake. Hivers, taken, and Bay,*— Tlie principal rivers of the lower peninsula are, the Raisin, Rouge, Detroit Clin- ton, Black, or Delude, St Clair, Saginaw, Thunder Bay, Sheboysan, St Joseph's, Kalamazoo, Grand, Mar- anie, Barbice. White, Rocky, Beauvais, St Nicholas, Marguerite, Manistee, An Salile, or Sandy, Aux Betises, Belle, Tittibawnsse, Grand Travei-se. Aux Cnrne, Mas- kegon, Flint and the Pentwater. Tlie cliief nv^rs of tlie upper p<-ninsuln are, the Ontonason. Huron, Mon- omomv. Dead, Montreal, St. Mary^s, Eagle, Cedar, White Fish. Black. Sturgeon, Rapid," and the Mani.«tie. The principal lakes are,'Superior, Michigan, Erie, Hu- ron, bt Clair, Long, Houghton, and Michigamme. TIio chief bays are, Green, Saginaw, Thunder, Great and Little Travei-se, Tah-qua-nie-naw, and Keewaiwona. Islaitds. — Grand, Isle Royale, Sugar, Dnimniond's, Cockburn, Mackinaw, Boisblanc, Great and Little Bea- ■s-er. Garden, and Hog. Climate. — The climate of Michigan is generally re- gard.'d as healthy, though near the lakes, swamps, and turbid streams, intermitteuts prevail to some extent in summer and fall. The seasons of the lower peninsula somewhat resemble those of western Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Canada West In the nortlieni penin- sula the climate is colder and more severe. Lake St Clair is usually frozen frem December till M.trch. Produttice j;«soMrce».— The chief protluctioiis are, horses, mules, neat cattle, sheep, swine, poultry, eags, butter, cheese, fish, sugar, wax, hops. hay. tobacco, wool, hemp, wheat rye. barley, oats, buckwheat pota- toes, Indian corn, and lumber. Among tlie minend re- sourees are rich veins of iron ore, "in inexhaustible quantities, in the district of country extending from Dead river to the Aleuomoiuv.

Many of tliese mines have been epeneil to a considerable ex- tent, nnd have been sulhcieutly imived to sliow that they may be ndvnntn:,'eoti. cop- per. In another instance masses of pure copper, of large size, weighing some thousands of pounds, have been obtained from an ancient ravine, that had been gullied out by the floods. In the same ravine largo pieces of silver also were found. Majiiifactures. — The nuunifactures of Michigan are conlined mostly to supplying tlu- immediate wants of the people. Saw, planing, and grist mills are numer- ous, as also tanneries, i"i:c. The mnnber of manufac- turing establishment.s in the state, in 18,')0, whose an- nual product amounted in value to $500 and upward, was l,!t79. Unilroaih. — Michigan has several important railroads, which traverse tlie state. Among them are, the Central railroad, from Detroit to Chicago, 281 miles loTig, and the .'Southern, from Monroe to Chicago, 2-17 miles. The nsruregate length of railroads in operation in the state is ahiait 500 miles. Commerce. — Sitmited as Michigan is, on the four great lakes of Huron, Superior. Michigan, and Krie (furnish- ing a continuous water conununieation of nearly 1,000 miles, navigable for vessels, and the opening of a canal around the falls of St. Mary, will add about 400 miles to lliis, through Lake Superior), it possesses superior advantages for an extensive commerce. Its fm-eiirn trade is' e(Uitined to the British provinces, lint its coasting trade is large — its exports from tlie sinf;le port of Di'tioit, amounting to over $4,000,000 in value an- luudly. An imnu-nse traffic is carried on in lumber, consisting of pine, walnut, maple, and white-wood, with the eastern and soutliern states. £rfHf(;/ie)(.— Tlie University of Michigan, at Ann Ar- bor, founded in 1837, and the St. Philip's colleffe, near Detroit, founded in 1839, are the principal collegiate in- stitutions in Michigan. Tlierc are about 3,000 common schools throughout the state. Population.— \n 1810, within the four districts of "Dt^ troit, Erie, Huron, and Mackinaw, was 4,762; in 1820, 8,806. In 1830, th(> wliol,- populiition of the territory was 31.630; in 1810, 212,276; in 1850, 397,654. Oorcriimi-nt. — 'Flio h'gislative power is vested in a senati' of 3J niembers, and a house of representatives, of not less tliiin 64, nor more than 100 members, elected by the jirople, for two years, by single districts. The executive power is vested in n governor, and lieuten- ant-governor, elected by the peiipio, for a term of two years. The general election is held on the Tuesday suc- ceeding the first Monday in November, biennially. At each geneial election a secretaiy of state, superinten- dent of public instruction, ti-casurer, commissioner of the land-olhce, an auditor-general, and an attorney-gen- eral, are chosen by the people at large, for a term of two years. The county ottlcers aif also chosen every two years. The judicial power is vested in a supreme court, circuit courts, probate courts, and in justices of the peace. The judges of the several circuit courts are to be jud-res of the supreme court, for the term of six years, thereaiter, and until the legislature otherwise provide. The right of suffrage is held by every white male citizen above the age of twenty-one years, every white male in- habitant residing in the state on the first of January, 1850, who has declared his intention to become a citizen of the United States six months preceding an election, or who has resided in the state two years and six months and declared his intention as aforesaid, who has resided in the st«te two months, and in the township or waid in which he oft'ei-s to vote ten days next preceding such election. Slavery and imprisonment for debt are pro- hibited. The personal property of debtors, under $.500, and every homestead not exceeding forty acres of land, and occupied dwelling, not exceeding $1,500, are ex- empt from sale on execution, or any other final process from a court, for any debt contracted after the adop- tion of this constitution. History — Among the earlier settlements of this stato w.'re Fort Tonchartrain, at Detroit, in about the year 1600: the Jesuit mission on the island of Mackinaw, by Marquette, in 1665 ; and Fort Miami, at the mouth of St. Jos.-ph's river, by La Salle, in 1678. Michigan re- mained as a portion of the British possessions in North America until the treaty of Grcnvillo, in 1795. Tlie year following it was ceded to the United States ; and in 18lX> it was annexed to the "Territory Northwest of the Kiver Ohio." In 1802, Ohio was detached and formed into an independent stati- ; but a territorial government was not established in Michigan before the year 1 80.5. In 1812 it was invaded by the' British, but was retaken by the Americans the next year. In 1835 a constitution was formed, and hi 1837 itwas admitted into the Union as an independent state. The present constitution of the state was adopted by a convention at Lansiiis:, August 15, 1850, and ratified by the people in November of that year.

It is the market of a large part of the productions of the state. Steamboats and other vessel-s navicating Lake Michigan, touch hen>, on their way to and from Detroit and points on Lake Erie, and tlie St. Lawrence, Krie, and Welland canals. The surrouiulhig region is rich, and ranidly increasing in an industrious and enterprising population, of which Milwaukt^ is the nucleus and the centre of trade. This citv is remarkable for tlie peculiarly bright straw-color and excellent quality of its bricks, for which the rich day-beds along the lake aflord abundant material. B»^ sides the large quantities of these which are exported, they are used for the majority of tlio buildings, some of which, in large and uniform rows of d^rellings or stores, present a lieautiful and splendid eflect.

MIS MIS inssissippi.oue of thi; United Sbitos, situated lietwren 30* 10' and ;),">" north lati- tude, and 88° HY and Sl'^ 35' west longitude i from Gi-eenwich : and lis bounded north by I Tennessee, east by Al- I abania, south by the gull" of Mexico and Louisiana, and west by Pearl and Missis- sippi rivers, the latter of which separates this state from Louisiana and Arkansas, flnd the former separates it from Louis- iana. Its superficial area is 47,157 square miles. Phy^cai Aspect.— The surface of the southeni por- tions of this state, for 100 miles inland from the Jlexican gulf, is even, with occasional hills of moderate elevation, interspersed with prairies, inundated marshes, and cypress swamps. The soil is generally sandy and gravelly, mingled more or less with clay, aud is capable of producing all the crops peculiar to the south. The central and northern parts of the state are more ele- vated, and the face of the country agreeably diversified by hills aud dales. The soil is exceedingly fertile, pro- ducing abundant crops. Ririrs and Bays. — The principal rivers are, the Mis- sissippi, Pearl. Pascagoula, Yazoo, Tombigbee, and the Bis Black. The only bays are, the Pascagoula, Biloxi, and St Louis, which lie contiguous to "the Mexican gulf. Climate. — The winters of Mississippi, as compared with the winters at the north, may be regarded as Aild; but, like those of the adjoining states, they vary from each other, and not unfrequently are quite severe. No winter passes without more or less frost, and few, in some parts of the state, without snow. Neither the su- gar-cane nor the orenge will grow, unprotected, north of latitude 3F. In general tfie winters along the Mis- sissippi are two orlhree degrees colder than in corre- sponding parallels on the Atlantic. The summers are usually very hot, subject to long droughts, and not un- frequently to excessive and protracted rains. Like most other southern countries, this state is generally healthy, except in the vicinity of swamps, and'slusgisli streams, where in summer and autumn, fevers anii bilious com- plaints frequently prevail. Productive fiesoMrces.— The products of this state are, horses, mules, neat cattle, sheep, swine, poultry, wax, wool, luml)er, tar, pitch, turpentine, cotton, tobacco, rice, wheat, rye, barley, oats, potatoes, and Indian corn. Cotton is the great staple, Utile regard being h.id to other crops. Manufactures.— But little attention is paid in this state tomanutactures, beyond supplying some of the more immediate wants of the people. In lj?oO there were 866 manufacturing establishments, whose annnal products amounted to §500 and upward. Jtailroads.— There are about 200 miles of railnmd completed in Mississippi, and others are projected. Thr Vicksburg, Jackson, and Brandon road, 60 miles Ions:. is the most important road as yet built. Another roail, from Natchez to Jackson, the capital of the state, is in proaress. CtommCT-c*.— Mississippi has no direct foreign com- merce, its shipping to foreign coimtries being made through the ports of neighboring states. Education. — The principal collegiate institutions of Mississippi are, the Oakland college,"'founded in 1830; the Centenary colleae^ in 1841 ; and the Mississippi univer- sity, at Oxford, founded in 1846. There are also about 100 academies and 500 common schools in tlie state. • Population.— \n 1800. 8.850 ; in 1810. 40..35-2 ; in 18-20, 7.5,448 : in 1830, 130,604 ; in 1840, 375,651 ; in 1850, 606,5.55.

Gorcrwmcwt.— The governor is elected by Hie people for a term of two years, and can not hold oflSce more than four years out of six; and in case of hie death, resignation, or other inability, it is provided, that the president ot the senate shall perform the duties of gov- ernor, until another shall be duly qualified. The senate is composed of 32 membere, elected for four years, halt of the number being chosen biennially. The represen- tatives are elected biennially, on the first Monday in November ; the present number is 98, and can not ex- ceed 100 members. The legislature meets biennially at Jackson, on the first MontTay in January. The judi- cial power is vested in a high court of errors and ap- peals, consisting of three judges, chosen by the people for six years, one being chosen biennially ; in a circuit court, held in each county, the judges chosen by the people for four years ; in a superior court of chancery, the chancellor chosen by the people of the whole state for six years ; in a court of probate, the judge elected by the people of each county for two years. Every free white male citizen of the United States, 21 years of age, and who has resided in the state one year next preceding the election, and four months in the county, city, or town, in which he ofl'ers his vote, is deemed a qualified voter. History. — De Soto traversed the Mississippi region in 1542, but made no settlement La Salle visiteH it in 1681, ha\-ing proceeded down the great valley from the lakes of the north. In 1608, B'Iberville, who was ap- pointed governor of Louisiana, arrived with a colony, chietiy Canadians, and settled on Ship island. The next year he built Fort Biloxi, on the eastern side of Biloxi bay, which became the headquarters of the province. D'iberville gave the name of Rosalie to the spot now called Natchez. That settlement wns surprised and destroyed by the Natchez Indians, in 1729. The French were avenged, and destroyed or dispersed the whole tribe. The northern part of Mississippi was ceded to England by France, in 1763. The southern portion was ceded to England by Spain, and attached to Florida, A portion was"retroceded to Spain in 1783. A large por- tion of the present state was erected into a territoij in 1798. The Alabama territory was separated from it in 1817, aiui toward the close of that year Mississippi was admitted into the Union. The first constitution was adopted in 1817, and revised in 1832.

States, which embraces a part of Upper Louisiana, as held by the French prior to 1763, when it was ceded to Spain, together with all her North American ter- ritory. It is situated between 36'= SC and 40'= 30' north latitude^ 89^ 20' and 96-' west longitude from Green- wich ; and is bound- ed north by Iowa, cast by Illinois and Kentucky, from which it is sepa- ratt-d "by the Mississippi, and south by Arkansas, and west by Arkansas, the Indian Territory, and Nebraska, from a part of the latter of which it is'separated by the river Missouri, whence it derives iu name. Its super- ficial area is 67,380 square miles. Physical Aspect.— 'h\is state presents a great variety of soil, as well as of surface ; but taking it as a whole, it is liilly, and in many parts broken and even moun- tjiinous. Starting from a point opposite the mouth of the Kaskaskias, and extending southwesterly, there is a vast ridge, rising into rocky elevations, which divides the country into two unequal slopes. The southeast- ern angle of the state is level, a large portion of which is annuiJly inundated. The western counties are din- ded into prairies and forests, and much of the soil is food. North of the Missouri the surface is somewhat iversified, presenting a fair proportion of woodlands, prairies, and other arable soil. The lands bordering on the Missouri are exceedingly rich and feitile, often consisting of strata of dai-kiolored alluvion, cf un- MIS 230 MOB known doptli. but mon-' fivnurntly mixpil with snnd. In rocpdiiig from tho river, tlif Imid in afpnornl is grad- n«l in its ascont, but sometimes rises abruptly into pie- vat<>d bHrrens, flinty ridges, niid limestone cliflFs. The lajid of this state niay be regarded either as fertile or very poor, there being but little soil of an intermediate quality ; it is either bottojn land, or. clitf; prairie, or barren ; sterile ridges, or sloping woodlands. Mountains. — The state is traversed by many ridges of the Ozark mountains, which have a breadth of from 100 to ir)0 miles ; but althoxigh tliey ot^en shoot up into piiH'ipitous peaks, it is believed they rarely exceed 'J,lX)0 feet in height. In St, Francois county exists the eeli'linited Iron "mountain, which has an elevation of ;i.")0 feet above tho level of the surrounding plain, is a mile and a half across its summit, and yields 80 per cent, of pure tnetiri. Five miles eoutb is another pyra- midal mountain of oxyde of iron, known as the IMlot Knob, 3(X) feet hish, with a base of a mile and a half in circumference. This pyramid also yields 80 per cent, of pure metal. Rivers anj Lakes. — Tho principal rivers are. the Mis- sissippi, Missouri, Osnge, Salt, Gar^conade, Chiiriton, Maramec, St Francis, Whitewater, Wachita, Big Black, and Des Moines. lu the southeast part of the state are several lakes, tho most noted of which are Pemisco, St Mary's, and Nio Carny. C/i»iat«.— The climate" is remarkably dry, pure, and serene ; and n^mot>- from the sti-cams and inundated lands it is healtliy, but is subject to great exbvmes of heat and cold. 'I'he Mississippi is usually frozen, and passable on the ice, by the lirst of Janxiary. The ex- tremes of temperature' vary from 100* Fahi-enheit to 8* below zero. Productire Resources. — Tlie principal products of this state are hoi-ses, mules, neat cattle, shei^p, swine, poul- try, sugar, wax, wool, hay, tobacco, cotton, hemp, flax, lumber, wheat, rye, barley, buckwheat, potatoes, oats, and Indian corn. Tlie mineral wealth of Mi.0. in which soods weiv manufactured to tlie annuid amount of i?,"iO0 worth or upward each, wen? :VXW, and of these lunrly one half were located in the city and county ot St. I.oui.s. Commerce.— Tlu- coninierce of Missouri consists most- ly of its river-trade, its foreign commerce being of very trifling account The shipping owned within the state (being mostly steamboats) amounts to about 30,000 tons. JSrfMfafioii.— There are several collegiate institutions in Missouri : the Masonic college, in Marion county, founded in 1831 ; University of St Louis, in 1832; St Charles college, in 1837 ; Missouri university, at Co- lumbia, in 18 lO ; St \'incent"s co)legt>, at Ca"pe Girar- deau, in 18-13; and Fayette colle'ge,"in 18-lti.

Every white male citizen, over 01 years of age, who has resided one year in the state, and three months in the county in which he otters his vote, has the right of sufl'rage. Thejudgts of the various courts are elected by the people for the term of six years. One bank only, with not more than five branches, may be established in the state. History. — Father Marquette, a Jesuit missionary, and .lolyet, a citizen of Quebec, visited the territory of the present state of Missouri in 167'3, and soon afterward the Canadian trappers apd Jesuit missionaries penetra- ted the country in every direction. The lead mines of Missouri were worked "by the French as early as 1700. The first p*>rmaneiit European settlement was made at St Genevieve, in 17()3, by a lead mining company, under the name of " I.aeUHie, Maxam, &. Co." St Louis was founded the next year. In J81K), Spain retroceded all her claims to Louisiana to France, who formally took possession of thecountiy, and sold it to the Unite"d States in 180,3. In 1805, that portion of Louisiana lying east of the Mississippi, and all of the country bea"rinn; that name west of that river, was erected into a terri- torial go^-ernment, under the name of the " Territory of Louisiana." In 1810. a part of the present state of Louisiana was separated from the rest of the territory, and admitted into the Union as an independnnt state, and the remainder was reorganizeil under the name of the " Territoi-y of Missourij" which was supposed to contain nil tho lands west of the Mississippi to tho " South sea," except a part of the state of Louisiana. In 1801, a part of this territory was admitted into tho Union as the present state of Missouri On the subject of its admission a long debate ensued in Congress, it having been proposed to proliibit sla\Try in the new stJite." It was finally admitted by what is called the Missouri compromise, which tolerated slavery in the state, but prohibited it in the territory north of it Mottoes of the seal, Salus popuU suprtma Ux e^to : '• The wvllare of the people is the lirst great law."

E. of Trenton, is situated on the west side of Passaic river, 3 miles from its entrance into Newark bay, 9 miles west of New York, and 215 miles from Washing- ton. It has n pleasant location on level ground, some- what elevated above tho river. The streets are broad and straight, lighted with gas, nnd suoplied through iron-pipes with pure vi-ater from a neighboring spring. Two spacious jiuhlic parks, shaded by lofty trees, add much to tho beauty of the place. Tho houses ore gene- NEW 242 NEW rally of wood, or brick, the former white and neat, tho latter substantial and elegant. Toward the west, the elevated grround ailbrda a commanding site fur resi- dences ; and the courthouse, which is a large structure of brown freestone, in the Egyptian style of architec- ture. The materials for this, wore wrought from the neighboring quarries, which furiiisli larizi' (|umitilies of notorial for buildings in New Vuik ami rlscwbere. The New Jersey railroad, conmctini; N. w York with Newark, Trenton, and Philadelphia, hove enters a splen- did depot, which is one of the most prominent buildings in the city. The Morris and Essex railroad also termin- ates here. Newark has also a number of churches, of which some are elegant and beautiful ; also several banks, literary institutions, and libraries. In proportion to its population, few cities are more extensively engaged in manufactures. Whalebone, oil, carriages, varnish, leather, shoes, candles, soap, har- ness, machineiy, castings, zinc, paint, and glass, are among the articles most'largely produced. Steamboats ply several times a-day to New York ; and the Morris canal, traversing the fruitful county from which it is named, has contributed much to the trade and prosperity of the place. The population in 1810, was 5.000 (in whole town- ship, 8,008) : in 1820, 6,507; in 1830,10,953; in 1840, 17,S!ss., situated on the south bank of Merrimack river, three miles from its entrance into the ocean, and 30 miles north of Bos- ton. It embraces about one mile square with regular streets, those parallel with the river rising one above the other, after the manner of terraces. That nearest the water is occupied by stores and warehouses, and the higher ones by neat and commodious dvt'ellings, which command a beautiful prospect of the harbor and ocean. A road and bridge lead to Plumb island, at the mouth of the river, which is a pleiisant summer resort. A suspension bridge and a railroad bridge extend across the Merrimack to Salisbuiy. The harbor is ample, and is protected by a breakwater, but is obstructed by a sand-bar at its entrance. Newburyport has been and is still extensively engaged in commerce and fisheries ; and although of late its maritime trade has diminished, its population and general prosperity has increased. The town contains a customhouse, of rousrh granite, with a Grecian Doric portico, churches, a courthouse, jail, market, and other public buildings. The Eastern railroad from Boston and Salem, enters the place, and unites it to the Portsmouth, Portland, and Saco rail- roads.

NEW ....s*''^^lF^f^^ NEWHAMP- SHIEE, one of 1 the I iiitcd f^tatcs, so nuiiied by John Ma- ^011, to whom a por- '^ tion of its territory was granted, in 1620, after Hampshire in England, the county fi om which he emi- giated. It lies be- tween 42'^ 41' and 45" 11' north lati- tude, and 70^^ 40' and 72" 28' west longi- tude from Green- wich, and is bounded north by Canada East, east by Miiine, from which it is separated in part by Salmon Fall river ; southeast by the Atlantic ; south by Massa- chusetts ; and west by Connecticut river, which separ- ates it from Vermont. Superficial area, 9,411 square miles. Physical Aspect. — Taking into consideration the small extent of surface in this state, it is more varied in its natural features than any other in the Union. Com- mencing at the seashore, we find a sandy beach, bor- dered by extensive salt marshes, which are intersected by numerous creeks. In the midst of this beach tliere is a bold promontoiy, called the " Boar's Head." For the first twenty or thirty miles from the sea, the coun- try is either level, or variegated by rolling swells, fertile valleys, and small conical hills. The remainder of the state is greatly diversified by sloping woodlands, rich intervales, rugged mountains, fruitful valleys, foaming cascades, crystal rivers, and silvery lakes, which, from their wild and picturesque effect, have distinguished this country as the " Switzerland of America." The soil is as varied in its character as the surface ; a con- siderable portion is fertile, and it is generally better adapted to "razing than tillage. The " intervale lands," on tlic bord(>rs of the large rivers, are esteemed as the most valuable, particularly if they arc enriched by an- nual floods. 'l''he uplands, of an uneven surface, and of a warm, moist, stony soil, are regarded as the best for grazing. The sandy, pine plains are the poorest, and often are of little or no use, except for growing wood. Mountains.— The most considerable of these are the White mountains, the Monadnock, Moosehillock, Ossi- pee, Sunipee, Patuckoway, and Kearsarge. Rivers, Lakes, and Bays. — The principal rivers are, the Connecticut, Merrimack, Androscogain, Salmon Fall, Piscataqua, Exeter, or Swamscot, feaco, Upper and Lower Ammonoosuc, Sugar, Ashuelet, Winnipise- ogee, Contoocook, Lamprey, Nashua, Margallaway, and Piscataquog. The chief lakes are the Winnipiseogee, Umbagog, Ossipee, Massabesick, Sunipee, Newfound, and Squam. There are two " Groat bays" in this state ; tlie largest situated at the confluence of Swamscot, Winuicut, and Lamprey rivers ; the other at the south- west corner of Lake Winnipiseogee. Mcrrymeeting bay is situated at the easterly end of the same lake. IsUznds. — The only islands worthy of note are the Isles of Shoals, seven in number, off Portsmouth har- bor, and numerous islets in Winnipiseogee lake. Of the latter. Long Cow, and Davis's, are the largest, and are in a high state of cultivation. Climate— The climate, like that of the states adja- cent, is subject to the extremes of heat and cold, but the air is generally salubrious and pure. Along the seaboard, invalids subject to complaints of the lungs generally suffer from the ocean winds. Morning and evening fires become necessary from September till May. The streams are generally locked up in ice, and in the open country the snow often abides on the earth from November till April, and in the woods till May or June. Productive Resources. — The chief products of this state are, horses, mules, horned cattle, sheep, swine, poultry, eggs, sugar, butter, cheese, hay, wood, lumber, wheat, rye, barley, oats, buckwheat, potatoes, and In- dian corn. Of tlie mineral resources there are iron, lead, silver, tin, zinc, magnesia, soap-stone, granite, feldspar, and mica. Manufactures. — The principal manufactures, of this state are cotton and woollen goods, cast-iron, paper, leather, boota and shoes, carriages, furniture, hats, pot- tery-ware, mechanical and agricultural instruments, &c. NEW 246 NEW Railroads and Canals.— There are about 600 miles ol railroads in New Hampshire, a large propcirtion of them iadiatin» from Concord, the political capital of the state, to almost every point of the compass. The only canals in the state are those for facilitating the nav- igation of the Merrimack river. Commerce. — New Hampshire has but the single port of Portsmouth on the Atlantic, and its direct foreign commerce heretofore has been extremely small, amount- ing in the aggregate to less than $60,000 in 1651 ; but the increased facilities afforded by the opening of rail- road communication between Portsmouth and the in- terior of the state will materially enlarge its foreign trade. The shipping owned within the state amounts to about 23,000 tons. Education. — The principal literary institutions of the state are, Dartmouth college, at Hanover, attached to which is the New Hampshire medical school ; and theo- logical seminaiies at Gilmanton, Concord, and New Hampton. There are also 70 or 80 academies, and about 3,000 common schools throughout the state. Population.— \u 1790, 141,899 ; in 1800, 183,762 ; in 1810, 214,360; in 1820, 244,161; in 1830, 269,328; in 1840, 284,574 ; in 1850, 317,964. Number of slaves in 1790, 158 ; in 1800, 8 ; in 1840, 1. Government. — The legislative power is vested in a senate, pi 12 members, and house of representatives, of about 300 members, and the executive power in a governor and live councillors, all elected by the people, the second Tuesday in March. The right of sufl'rage is vested in every male inhabitant, of twenty-one years, excepting paupers and persons not taxed. The judi- ciary power is vested in a superior court, and court of common pleas. Judges are appointed by the governor and council during good behavior, or until seventy years of age. History. — The first permanent settlements in New Hampshire were made at Little Harbor, Portsmouth, and Dover, in 1623. In 1641, all the colonists of this state placed themselves under the protection of Massa- chusetts, and formed a part of the county of Norfolk. In 1679, it was again constituted a separate province by Charles II., and in 1680, the first assembly convened. In 16!)0 it reunited with Massachusetts, from which, two years after, it was again separated, against the wishes of the people. In 1695, the two provinces were placed under the jurisdiction of New York, but were reunited in 1702, and thus continued until 1741, when a separate governor Was appointed over each, and New Hampshire ever after constituted a distinct govern- ment. During the war of independence the government was conducted by a temporary administration. The state constitution was established in 1784, which, with the amendments of 1792, forms the one at present in force. In 1788, this state, in convention, adopted the constitution of the United States. New Hampton, p. t., Belknap co., N. H., 29 ms. n. of Concord ; from W. 510 ms. Watered by Pemige- wasset river.

New Haven, city, seat of justice of 'New Haven co., and capital, together with Hartford, of Connecticut, sit- uated on a bay of Long Island sound, which is here about twenty miles broad. It is 76 miles northeast of New York, and 300 miles from Washington. The city is built on a plain, or gentle slope, at the foot of two bold spurs from the Green Mountain range, which here terminate in two abrupt cliffs, called " East Rock" and " West Rock," rising like sentinels on either side. From the top of these, the eye beholds a wide and enchanting prospect. Below the feet. New Haven lies in quiet beauty, with its white mansions and steeples embow- ered amid clusters of ricli foliage. Far around stretch hills, slopes, and valleys, rich with the colors of nature and cultivation ; away to the south and east, like an ocean, spreads the sound, sprinkled here and there by a mote-like sail, and dimly bounded by the cloud-like shores of Long Island. New Haven is one of the most beautiful of cities. Its streets are broad and regular ; tasteful, chaste, and splendid buildings are surrounded by pleasant gardens, parks, and trees. Many of these are elms, stately and venerable, planted by the fathers of the town, and cherished, with commendable pride and care, by their descendants. 'Phis profusion of foliage and freedom from contracted and uncleanly streets, combine for New Haven the advantages of the city and the country. The " Green" is a pleasant spot of ground, shaded by rows of lofty elms; in the centre, stand the three oldest churches in the city. Toward the west is the statehouse, a large and imposing struc- ture ; still further to the west, are the buildings of Yale College, one of the oldest, most flourishing, and respect- able institutions of America. Hillhouse avenue, bor- dered by sides of undulating green, from which spring rows of stately trees, runs between splendid mansions and gardens, that rival Italian villas in loveliness. Northwest of the city, is the cemetery, beautifully laid out, and adorned with an imposing entrance in Egyp- tain architecture. The harbor is spacious, but so shallow that large ves- sels are obliged to anchor at Long wharf, which, from time to time, has been extended to a length of 3,943 feet. New Haven prosecutes an extensive coasting-trade witli New York and the towns along the sound. Several ships from foreign shores also make this city their port. The New York and New Haven railroad has largely increased the communication between the two cities, and the New Haven and Hartford railroad joins the lines at Springfield, which traverse the valley of Con- necticut river, and other parts of Massachusetts. The population in 1810, was 5,772 ; in 1820, 7,147 ; in 1830, 10,180 ; in 1840, 14,890 ; in 1850, 20,345. New Haven, p. t., Oswego co., N. Y., 161 ms. n. w, of Albany ; from W. 383 ms.

Ni:\V MF.XICO TERRITORY, situated between 38° and 32" iiortli latitude, and 103° and 116° longitude west fioni Greenwich; and is bounded north by Utah and Nel)raska territoiii>s, east by Nebraska territory and Texas, south by JMexico, and west by Caliloniia and Utah. Its superficial area is about 211,000 square miles. Physical .^spert.—- The general appearance of the country is mountainous with a large valley in the mid- dle running north and south, formed by the Rio Grandi! del Norte, This valley is generally about twenty miles widi^ bordered on the east ana west by mountain chains. There are some valleys of less extent alou'f the borders of smaller streams, and a few spaces of eleva- ted table-land. East ot the Rocky mountains there are prairies and plains, and a portion of the great Ameri- can desert. The soil in the valley of the Rio Grande ■ sandy, and looks poor, but 1 abundant crops. The most fer- part of the valley begins below Santa Fe, along the river, where it is not tincommon to raise two crops within one year. The dryness of the soil makes it ne- cessary to employ irrigation. Moiintains. — The Rocky mountiiin range traverses the eastern part of New Mexico, bearing different names at different points. South of Santa Fe it rises to 6,000 or 8,000 feet, while to the north some snow-capped peaks are seen which rise to from 10,000 to 12,000 feet above the sea-level. The Sierra Mad re or Anahuac range stretches northward Irom the Mexican Cordil- leras through the centre of the territory, and the Wah- satch mountains lie near the western boundary. Rivers and Lakes. — The principal river of New Mexi- co is the Rio Grande del Norte. Its head wati.-rs are found in the Rocky mountains, and flowing south it enters the gulf of Mexico, forming, in the lower part of its course, the boundary line between Mexico and the United States. Its length is about 2,000 miles, and it is navigable for steamboats, about 700 miles from its mouth. Its principal tributaries are, the Chames, Pe- cos, Conchos, Salado, Alamo, and San Juan. The Colo- rado, which empties into the gulf of California, forms part of the western boundary, until it extends into the territory. The Gila, which' flows westward, extends along the southern boundary until reaching its source in New Mexico is generally i by irrigation it produces abui tile part of the valley begins in the Sien-a Madre range ; its principal branches are San Francisco and Salt rivers. About 100 miles south- east of Santa Fe, on the high table-land east of the Rio Grande, are several salt lakes, which furnish the coun- try with salt. Climate. — The climate is generally ti^mperate, con- stant, and healtliy. Considerable atmospheric ditter- ences, however, agp experienced in the mountain dis- tricts, and in the low viUley of the rivers. In the lat- ter the summer heat sometimes lises to 100" Fah- renheit, but the nights are always cool and pleasant. The winters are comparatively of long duration, and frequently severe. The sky is generally clear, and the atmosphere dry, except during the rainy season, froiji July to October. Disease is little known, except some infliunmatious and typhoid fevers in the winter sea- son. Productive Resources. — Indian com, wheat, beans, on- ions, and fruits, are raised in large quantities, and the grape-vine is extensively cultivated. The inhabitants pay considerable attention to cattle-raising, and are pos- sessed of largs flocks and herds. The country is rich in gold, silver, copper, iron, coal, gypsum, and salt. None but the silver mines, however, have been much wrought. There are considerable domestic manufac- tures. Population. — The whole population of New Mexico, according to the census of 1793, was 30,953 ; in 1833, it was estimated at 52,360, composed of one twentieth Spaniards, one fifth Creoles, one fourth Mestizos of all grades, and one half Pueblo Indians. In 1842, the pop- ulation was 57,026 ; and according to the census of 1850, 61,547. This is exclusive of the independent tribes of Indians which still exist in the country. Government. — The government of New Mexico is similar to that of Utali, and that generally applied to territories of the United States. All citizens of adult ages are voters, and elect a territorial legislature. The governor and judges ^e appointed by the president of the United States. History. — The histoi-y of New Mexico lies very much in the dark. The Spaniards, it seems, received the first infornwtion about it in 1581, from a party of adven- turers under Captain Francisco de Levya Bonillo, who, upon finding the aboriginal inhabitants and the mineral wealth of the country to be similar to those of Mexico, called it New Mexico. In 1594, the then viceroy of Mexico, Count de Monterey, sent the gallant Juan de Oaiite, of Zacatecas, to New Mexico, to take formal pos- session of the country in the name of Spain, and to es- tablish colonies, missions, and presidios (forts), 'i'bey found a great many Indian tribes and settlements, which they succeeded in Christianizing in the usual Spanish way, with sword in hand, and made them slaves. The villages of the Christianized Indians were called Pueblos, in opposition to the wild and roving tribes that refused such favors. Many towns, {)f which only ruins exist now, were established at that time ; many mines were worked, and the occupation of the country seemed to be secured, when, quite unexpect- edly, in 1080, a general insurrection of all thi- Indian tribes broke out against the Spanish yoke. Tlie Span- iards were either massacred or driven southward, where they founded Paso del Norte. The country was not recovered for ten or twelve years. Seveial insur- rections have since occurred, but none so universal or disastrous as this one. This country followed the fate of Mexico alter the revolution that overthrow the Spanish jiower. The history of New Mexico previous to the invasion by the Americans, has little to arrest at- tention. It is a continuous record of barbaiism and tyranny. On the 8th of September, 1846, Santa Fe was captured by the Americans under General Kearney, and soon after several of the river towns were visited on his route to California. A civil govenmient was now established. On the 19th of January, 1847, an in- surrection broke out against tlie Americans, and in sev- eral puohlos many Americans were murdered. Taos, Arroya-IIondo, and Rio Colorado, were the chief scenes of strife. The battles of La Canada and El Embudo also occurred in this month, and in Fcbroary tlie bat- tle of Taos; in all of which tlie Mexicans were com- pletely vanquished. Some few skirmishes occurred after these, but none of importance. From this pei iod the United States authorities exercised exclusive po«'er. On the 2d of February, 1848, a treaty of peace and ces- sion was signed at Guadalupe Hidalgo, by which New Mexico was assigned to the Union.

New Orleans, city, seat of justiw of Orleans parish, and commeraal nietropolis of Louisiana, situated on the north bank of Mississi^ipi river, 1(X) miles fi-om its en- tnuu-e into the gulf ot Mexico, 1,185 miles below the mouth of the Missouri, and 1,172 miles from Washing- ton. Its iH-vsition and appearance are both sing\ilarly dirtt'ivnt from those of other American cities. The ground, as it recciles from the river, descends by a gen- fie inclination, causing the houses, when viewed from a point not much above the level of high water, to seem to rise imnnHliatt'ly from it, A ''levtN^," or dike, forms a margin between'the city and the river, and protects the former from inundation by the latter. It is built of wootl, '000 ft>et wide, and extends for four miles, pi-e- eenling a most animatetl scene of connnercial prosper- ity. Within, not onlv the houses, but the inhabitants, aiv of many descriptums. Except New York, no city includes Americans from so many ditlervnt states, while the numbt^r of blacks, with the French and Siwn- ish CrtHiIes, and the foreigners, is still gtt-ater. These representatives of many" nations are "drawn to New Orleans by its geograjJiicnl and commercial relations to the West InUiesi Skiuth America, Mexico, and the southe]^ parts of North .America. The Creole citizens aro descendants of tlie Fr»Mich, Spanish, jind Germans, ■who originally foundetl and peopleil the city, and con- stitute a'largi> portion of the population. The p^wition of New Orleans, with reganl to the interior of the United States, is still moiv important. Situahxl near the mouth of the ^reat river of the American continent. the Mississippi, w^jth its inunense conlluents the Ohio and the Missouri, almost the whole trade of those streams, and of their thousand tributaries, flows toward this point, as to a vast rtxeiving and distributing ^Br- Toir. Hence the exports of New Orleans are exc^Wed by those of no other .■Vmerican citv. New York excepted. The great staples oi the southern and western states, su^r, cotton, tobacco, wheat, flour, and com, are the articles chiefly ship^HxI from this port. The harbor is, excellent, deep, and spacious. Ships, and vessels of every dt-scription, from tlie flatboat of the Mississippi to the maguificent oct^an-steamer, here congrrgnte, or enliven the scene, as they move from point to jioint. From the city to the bar, near the gxilt. 100 mil(>s be- low, the river has an avi^rage depth of ICO feet, aftbrd- ing anchorage for several miles along the wharves, llie beil of the fiver, and its Ivanks towaVd the mouth, are graJusUy rising. In 17iS! there were i!5 feet of water on the bar. ln"l7tfT there were but SO, and now there are but Rvt. The present mouth of the river is three miles beyond the mouth of 17*:M. The city is gradually extending toward Lake Pon- cliartrain "on the north, which communicatt^s with the Mississippi bv a canal, the Bayou St. John, and a rail- road six wi!es long, and with the gxilf of Mexico by Lake Borgne and inWmediate pa.'sagx^s. The Mexican Gulf railroad couununicatcs with Pi-octorville, '^7 miles distant. From the nature of the coramereial ndvantagcB which New Orleans possesses, it is apparent that its prosperity is almost unlimited, and is the necess'ary result of the settlement of the vast region of the valley of tlie Mississippi. It is now the sixtfi city in popula- tion, and the thin! in commerce, in the Vnion, and per- haps would already have held a higher rank, but from the check it receives from the prevalence of yellow fever, and other maladies, consequent upon its situa- tion. There were formerly three municipalities and the city of Lafayette, with distinct councils for tho management of internal aflairs, in the geographical Umits~of tho city; these were consolidated" in 185'i under one municipal goveniment. ITiis city was also the capital of Louisiana until 1849, when the seat of government was removed to Baton Rouge. It contains churches of various ages and styles ot architecture ; hospitals, charitable institutions, theatres, banks, ware- houses, hotels, and the United States branch mint, a large building, 108 feet deep, 28Q feet long, and three stories high ; also the University of Louisiana, and many excellent schools. The city is supplied with water, ele- vated by steam from the Mississippi into a reser\-oir, and tlience distributed through iron pipes. The population in 17tx^, was a 190 ; in 1785, 4,980 : in 1810, 17,e40: in 18-:iO, 07,17(5; in 1830,46,310; in 1840, 100,193: in 18.50, 11,5,60.5. New Oxford, p. v., Eei-wicHtownship, Adams co., Pa..

Its pleasjmt scenery, embracing many spa- cious views of the ocean ana its rocky" shores, its healthful climate, abundance and variety "of fish in its waters, and its interesting historic associations and relics of cariy times, render Newport one of the most attractive places of summer resort in the country. Not far from the town stands a curious monument of anti- quity— the Old Tower. Its a^^ and origin are unknown, and "have been the subject o? much learned but fruitless disquisition. Newport harbor is one of the most accessible, safe, and capacious in America.

It has a superficial area of about 46,000 square miles, or 30,000,000 acres. Physical Aspect. — ^The natural features of this state are greatly diversified, but in general may be regarded as an elevated tract, with numerous indentatioiis and depressions, which form the basins of the lakes and the valleys of fertilizing streams. The surface of the eastern division is more varied in its character than the western. There are some level tracts, the principal of which embrace the prairies and larger plains of Long Island ; but the greater portion is mountainous and NEW 256 NEW hilly. The c«ntral and western divisions are mostly level, or inoderat'cly undulating, except near the Penn- sylvania line, vi'here it becomes' broken and hilly. The Boil of this state is generally good, except on the more sterile parts of the Hudson highlands, and other moun- tainous tracts, and many parts are celebrated for their extraordinary fertility. The valleys of the Mohawk and the Genesee, in particular, have long been prover- bial for their productiveness, and are legarded as inex- haustible in their yield. The extensive plains in the central part of Long island, heretofore used as wood- lands, producing large quantities of fuel for the New York mark(!t, are now being converted into farms and gardens, and the soil, with a moderate outlay for amendments, is found to produce, when properly cul- tivated, as well as any other land on the island. Mountains. — There are several ridges of mountains in this state, which are generally considered as exten- sions of the Allegany or Appalachian chain. Two of these cross the eastern division, one of which extends from New Jersey to West Point, forming the Hudson highlands ; thence in a northerly direction to the Tagh- kannic mountains, constituting the dividing ridge be- tween the Housntonic and Hudson rivers. The same range continues to Vermont, and is there known as tile Green mountains. The other range, from New Jersey, terminates at the Shawangunk mountains, on the west side of the Hudson. Another range still more prominent, also extends froui New Jersey, as a continu- ation of the Kittatinny ridge, to the Kaatsbergs (Cats- kill), near the Hudson, whence it continues in a north- westerly direction, through the counties of Albany and Schoharie, forming the Helderberg ; thence to the Lit- tle Falls, through Herkimer, where it is known by the name of Sacondaga mountain ; thence along to the westward of Lake Champlaiu to the river St Law- rence, forming the Adirondack mountains. Mount Marcy being the most lofty pinnacle of the range. Rivers, Creeks, Lakes, and Bays. — The principal rivers are, the St. Lawrence, Niagara, Hudson, Delaware, Sus- quehannah, Genesee, Oswego, Oswegatchie, Black, St. llegis, Mohawk, Saranac, Salmon, Chenango, Tioga, Seneca, Canisteo, Allegany, Croton, Harlem, and East. The most noted creeks are, the Tonawanda, EUicott, Eighteen-Mile, Oak-Orchard, Oriskany, East and West Canada, Schoharie, Sacondaga, Rondout, and the Wall Kill. Lakes Erie, Ontario, and Champlain, lie partly in this state. The other chief lakes are George, Cay- uga, Seneca, Oneida, Oswegatchie,' Canandaigua, Chau- tnuque, Skaneateles, and Crooked. The principal bays are, New York, Jamaica, Great South, Shinnecock, Gar- diner's, Peconic, Oyster, and Flushing. Cataracts. — New York is noted for a number of mag- nificent waterfalls. The falls of Niagara form the most stupendous cataract in the world." The water accu- mulated from the great upper lakes, forming a river about three quarters of a mile wide, and from forty to sixty feet deep, flows with a current of seven miles an hour. As it proceeds the river widens, and embosoms Grand and Navy islands, and again contracts to its former width. Below the islands are rapids, which ex- tend a mile, to the precipice, in which space the river descends tifty-seven feet. Here Goat island divides the river into two chamicls. Over the precipice the river falls perpendicularly about 1(10 feet. Much the greater part of the water passes in the channel between Goat island and the Canada shore, and this fall is called, from its shape, the Horseshoe. Between Goat island and the small island in the eastern channel the stream is only eight or ten yards wide, forming a beautiful cascade. Between this small island and the American shore the sheet of water is broad, and the descent greater by a few feet than at the Horschoe fall, but the stream is comparatively shallow. The best single view of the falls is from Table-Rock, on the Canada shore, and the best view of the rapids is from Goat island. Trenton falls, twelve miles north of Utica, are a succession of magnificent cascades. The Cohoes falls are formed by the passage of the Mohawk over a wall of rock, in one ■ sheet, sixty-two feet high. At Rochester, the Genesee has a fall of ninety-six feet. At Ithaca, Fall creek has a deseent of 438 feet in the space of a mile. The Cau- terskill falls are a beautiful cascade, of great elevation, in the Highlands. Mineral Spriiigs.— The Saratoga and Ballston min- eral springs are the resort of invalids at all seasons, and of the fashionable world during summer. The salt springs, near Syracuse, annually yield four million bushels of salt. Tlie sulphur Springs, at Sharon, in Schoharie county, and at Avon, in Livingston county, are efficacious in the treatment of chronic complaints. lilands. — The chief islands, surrounded by tide water, are Long, Staten, Manhattan, Blackwell's, Gardiner's, Shelter, and Pliun. Those of the inland waters are, Grand and Tonawanda islands, in the Niagara river, and several others in the St. Lawrence. Climate. — The climate is more varied, perhaps, than in any other state. In the easterly section, below the Hudson highlands, the winters, are comparatively mild, but changeable, and frequently are rendered dis- agreeable by the ocean winds. In the northeastern and central divisions they are more unifonn, but severe. In the western division they are also mild, and are sub- ject to less variation than either of the other divisions, except near the lakes, where they are often rendered unpleasant by tempestuous winds. The extremes of temperature near the city of New York vary from 4* below zero Fahrenheit to 90" above ; at Albany, from 16° below to 93* above ; at Canandaigua, from 8° be- • low to 87° above ; and at Buttalo, from zero to 80* above. The climate of the state is generally regarded as heaJthy, with the exception of a few months in sum- mer and autimin, in the vicinity of stagnant marshes and sluggish streams. Here, as in most other parts of the country, situated in similar circumstances, inter- mittents and bilious disorders more or less prevail. Productive Resources. — The chief products arc horses, mules, neat cattle, sheep, swine, poultry, eggs, beef, pork, fish, butter, cheese, silk, hay, wool, sugar, wine, hops, tobacco, flax, hemp, lumber, pot and pearl ashes, pitch, tar, turpentine, wheat, flour, rye, barley, oats, peas, beans, flax-seed, buckwheat, potatoes, Indian com, apples, cider, pears, plums, peaches, grapes, and other fiuits peculiar to the latitude. Of the mineral and fos- sil resources, iron, salt, marble, hydraulic cement, gyp- sum, super-phosphate of lime, flagstone and lim.e, are the most important, all of which are extensively and profitably wrought. Manufacture.s. — The manufactures of New York are extensive. Every section of the state abounds in ex- cellent water-power, which is generally improved for manufactories, flour-mills, saw-mills, &c. Cotton, wool- lens, iron, paper, leather, glass, oil, silk, cutlery, hard- ware, firearms, carriages, &c., are the more important articles of manufacture. Railroads and Canals. — Nev? York has about 2,000 miles of railroads in successful operation. The most important are, the New York and Erie, extending from the Hudson river to Lake Erie, a distance of 450 miles ; and the Hudson river, and the New York, Ilailem, and Albany railroads, extending from New York city to Al- bany. From Albany railroads extend eastward to Bos- ton, northward to Canada, and westward to Buft'alo. From all these roads branches extend to various im- portant points in the state. The New Haven connects New York city with the eastern states. Tlie principal canal in New York is the Erie, extending from Al- bany to Bufliilo, 364 miles. From the Erie lateral canals diverge north and south, traversing many important sections of country. The canals are, with a single ex- ception, the property of the state. They have an ag- gregate length of about 1,000 miles, and have been principally built for the purpose of uniting the naviga- tion of the lakes with the Hudson river. Commerce. — The foreign commerce of New York is nearly equal to that of all the rest of the Union com- bined. Her lake and interior commerce is equally immense. In 1850, its imports and exports amounted to $163,836,313. The shipping owned within the state is over one million of tons, of which about one half is employed in the coasting trade and on the lakes. Edilcation. — Among the literary institutions of New York are, Columbia, Union, Hamilton, and Geneva colleges ; and the New York, Madison, and Rochester universities. There arc seven theological seminaries, and five medical schools. There are, also, about 250 academies, and 12,000 common schools in the state. The money appropriated for the support of common schools amounts to over a million of dollars annually. Population.— In 1790, 340,120 ; in 1600 ; 586,756 ; in 1810, 959,949 ; in 1820, 1,372,812; in 1830, 1,918,608 ; in 1840,2,428,957; in 1850, 3,097,394. Number of slaves in 1790, 21,324 ; in 1800, 20,343 ; in 1810, 15.017 ; in 1820, 10,088 ; in 1830, 75; in 1840, 4. Government.— The executive power is vested in a governor, and Ueutenant-governor, who must be native- NEW 258 NEW bom citizens of the United States, and have resided in the state five years, and who are elected biennially ; and the legislative power in a senate, of 32 members, elect- ed biennially, and a house of assembly, of 128 members, elected anuunlly, on the Tuesday succeeding the first Monday in November. The secretary of state, comp- troller, treasurer, canal commissioners, attorney-gen- eral, engineer, and surveyor, are elected biennially by the people. Judges are elected by the people, and hold their office eight'years. Every white male citizen, 21 years of age, who has resided in the state one year, and in the county where he otfers his vote four months next preceding the election, enjoys the right of suf- frage. Persons of color who have resided three years in the state, and have possessed a freehold of $250, one year previous to the election, are all,owed the right of suffrage. ffisionj.— In the year 1609, Henry Hudson , a naviga- tor (who had previously made two voyages to the American continent, in the service of a company of London merchants), in the employ of the Dutch East India Company, while exploring the coasts of what are now Virginia. Delaware, and New Jersey, in search of a passage to the Pacific ocean, passed through the Nar- rows, entered the magnificent bay of New York, and discoveri'd tlic ninutli of the Manhattan (now Hudson) river. Fur U'u days lio continued his voyage cautiously up this river, <(iiil"ulriiily hoping it would open through to the great ocean, niid it was not until he reached the head of ti.le-water, in tact until he was at the mouth of the Mohawk, that lie relinquished this idea. He reached England in tlie autumn of that year. During the same year, Champlain, having fortified Quebec, passed through the lake which bears his name, and descended Lake George. The two navigatq|B came very near meeting each other from difterent points, in the interior of New York. The Dutch commenced a regular trade with the Indians upon the Hudson in 1610, which was continued several years before a permanent settlement was commenced. They began a settlement at Albany in 1615, built a fort, and called the country upon the river New Nethtriands. About the same time, a small settlement was made upon Manhattan island, but actual colonizatiini did ii"t take place until after 1621, when the Duteh ^^'est India Company was formed. In 1G29, this company issued |)atroon privileges, for the purpose of encouragintr .settlements, and emigration rapidly in- creased. In 1633, the Dutch erected a fort on the Con- necticut river, upon the present site of Haitford, but soon after abandoned the place. The Dutch at this time claimed Long Island, yet the English commenced settlements upon" the eastern end of it. They also claimed jurisdiction over the whole country bordering the Delaware and its bay, but there acnlony of Swedes, which had been projected by and planted under the auspices of Gustavus Adolphus, disputed their author- ity, and they built a fort upon the island of Tinicum, in the Delaware, a few miles below Philadelphia. In 1643-'44, the Dutch waged a war against the neighbor- ing Indian tribes upon Long Island, and in New Jersey, who showed signs of disaffection, having been badly treated by the vvhites. The Indians were subdued and dispersed. In 1647, Peter Stuyvesant, the most cele- brated of the Dutch governors, arrived, and by order of the home government, he set about reducing the Swedish colony to submission. This was accomphshed in 1655, and New Sweden upon the Delaware became a part of the New Netherland.s, In 1664, Charles 11. granted the country between the Connecticut and the Delaware to his brother, the Duke of York, who sent an armed force to take possession. This they accom- plished in the autumn of that year, and the name of the settlement and province was changed to New Y'ork. When, in 1689, Governor Andres was imprisoned, the people of New York, under Leisler, took possession of the fort there. Leisler continued at the head of affairs until 1691, when he was arrested by Slaughter, a newly- appointed royal governor, and executed on a charge of high treason. From the year 1700 until 1744, the prov- ince of New York was quiet, except the excitement produced by a pretended negro plot. It was then that the '• five years' war" with France took place, and nor- thern New York became the theatre of hostilities, Hoosick and Schenectady were burnt. From 1755 to 1763 occurred the French and Indian wars, and New York was the chief field of operations within the En- glish colonies. Fort Oswego was captured by Mont- calm, August 13, 1756, and the next year, on August , he stormed and took Port William Henry, on Lake George. The English also made conquests of fortresses in the possession of the French ; Ticonderoga, Kronte- nac, and Niagara, The congress of the colonies, which the stamp-act gave birth to, was held in the city of New York, in 1765, and about the same time the association called the Sons of Liberty was organized in this prov- ince. In 1767, the powers of the colonial legislature were annulled by parliament, because the assembly refused to grant supplies to troops. In 1773, the people of New York, like those of Boston, successfully resisted the landing of tea. In 1775, after hearing of the battle of Lexington, a provincial congress was assembled, and thus the colony wss governed until 1777, when a con- stitution was adopted. On August, 27, 1776, occurred the battle on Long Island, between the Americans and British and Hessians. The city was evacuated by the Americans on the 23d of September. From that time until the close of the Revolution, this state was the scene of some of the most exciting and important events of the war. But our limits forbid a detail of them. On the 25th of November, 1783, the British evacuated New York, It was there that Washington, the first president of the United States, was inaugura- ted, on the 30th of April, 1789. New York ratified the Constitution of the United States July 26, 1788. NEW YORK COUNTY, is situated at the southeast part of the state, between Hudson and East rivers, and includes Manhattan, Blackwell's, Ward's, and Randall's islands. Area, 20 square miles. Face of the country, undulating; soil, fertile. Seat of justice. New York city. Pop. in 1653, 1,120; in 1661, 1,743; in 1675, 2,580; in 1696, 4,455; in 1730, 8,256; in 1756, 10,530; in 1774, 22,861 ; in 1786, 23,688 ; in 1790, 33,131 ; in 1800, 60,489; in 1810, 96,373; in 1820. 123,706; in 1830, 202,589 ; in 1840, 312,710 ; in 1850, 515, 507. New York, city, the great commercial metropolis of the United States, and in population, commerce, and wealth, one of the first cities of the globe, is situated in latitude 40° 42* 40" north, and in longitude 74" 1' 8" west from Greenwich, and 3" 0' 22" east from Washing- ton, 216 miles southwest of Boston, and 86 miles north- east of Philadelphia. The city is located on Manhattan island, between Hudson and East rivers, which unite at its southern extremity, forming one of the most admirable harbors for beauty and convenience in the world. The island is 13i miles long, bounded on the north by Harlem river, formerly Spuytendevil creek, and embraces an area of about 20 square miles. On the south part of this, the compact part of the city is built, extending; northward about four miles from river to river, and spreading by a rate of progress which will soon cover the whole island. Its admirable position for foreign commerce, with its noble bay, and its remarkable facil- ities of internal communication with every portion of the Union, have been the unfailing sources ol its extra- ordinary growth and prosperity. Here the noble Hudson, alter a course of more than 200 miles, through a rich and populous region, sweeps majestically along, bearing on its bosom the vast commerce of the Erie canal and the west, expands into the upper bay, and passes through the " Narrows" into the ocean. Here, too, on the opposite side, courses the strong tide of East river, which, winding between Long Island and the main land, forms the rocky pass of " Hell-Gate," and several islands. This stream, which averages about three fourths of a mile in width, and thirty feet in depth, afibrds a passage for vessels of a large class into Long Island sound and the Atlantic ; while those engaged in foreign commerce, as well as in the southern coasting- trade, usually enter and leave the harbor through the Narrows, between Staten and Long islands. ITie best anchorage for these is at the wharves along the East river, which is more secure from ice than the Hudson. British packets, coasting vessels, and canal-boats gen- erally, lie along the former river ; some at Brooklyn, and the Atlantic dock, on the opposite bank ; while the Hudson is thickly lined with steamboats and ships from England, France, Spain, Portugal, Holland, Sweden, and other foreign countries. On this river, also, at the foot of Canal street, is the wharf of the Collins' line of steamers, between Liverpool and New York. The Cunard steamers land at Jersey city, on the opposite side of the river. Other splendid lines run between the city and Southampton, Bremen, and Havre, in Europe, Charleston, Savannah, New Orleans, Havana, Chagres, Nicaragua, and Panama. Steamboats of dif- 1 \} ,'1 ' \i^mm:n\:^^^^m^^^^^^^''^^^'' "' NEW 260 NEW forent grades, from the mngnificcnt flonting palaces of the Hudson, to the lesser pi-opeller and steam-ferry boats, are constantly leaving or approaching tlie city, and animate its waters with the most varied prospect ,of life and activity. For pleasant, salubrious position, and beauty of surrounding country. New York is as conspicuous as it is for commercial advantages. En- tering the outer bay, from the Atlantic, the traveller sees on the left of the broad expanse of water, the blue hills of Now Jersey, formerly known as the highlands of Navesink. Toward the north, the romantic heights of Staten island rise to view, and on the east, the shores of Long island. Following the Narrows, between the two islands, which are defended by strong fo^fitications, the upper or inner part of the bay opens an enc*ranting scene. Staten island recedes, .nnd the shores of New Jersey reappear. Long Island continues on the right, and after passing Governor's island, with its fortidca- tions, the great city displays its forest of masts and spires, its domes, and its houses, relieved by the green foliage of the "Battery," set, like an emerald, in some darker stone. The ground rises from the Battery, and from both rivers, by a gradual ascent, of which Broad- way is the ridge, or summit. This surface, with the outline of the city, which rapidly widens from its southern point to a breadth of two miles, at Corlear's Hook, on the East river, gives an imposing etfect, unequalled by almost any in the world. At the lower and ancient part of the city, the streets are somewhat irregular, but not unpleasant, being lined with rows of warehouses and stores of the most splendid and solid construction. Many of these are brick, some of free- stone, and others of white marble. This is the business part of the city, and embraces comparatively few resi- dences. Wall street is the principal theatre of financial and mercantile operations, and is a broad, straight avenue, leading fiom East river to Broadway. On either side of this are numerous splendid banking- houses, and other public buildings, among which is the Merchants' Exchange, of blue granite, or sienite, 200 feet long, 171 feet vpide, and 124'feet high to the top of the dome, with a portico supported by massive solid pillars. Within, the most remarkable apartment is the exchange, a rotunda, 80 feet in diameter, and 80 feet high, lighted from above by the dome, and resting upon eight Corinthian columns of Italian marble. The whole building is of tire-proof mateiials, and is a splendid oraa- mcnt to the city. The customhouse, on the same street, is a beautiful structure of white marble, in Doric archi- tecture, surrounded by rows of Corinthian columns, with a portico extending across the entire front on Wall street. It is 200 feet long, 90 feet wide, and 80 feet high, and contains numerous apartments for the diflercnt offices, the principal of which is of circular form, 80 feet in diameter, surrounded by columns, and lighted by a beautiful dome. This structure occupies the site of where once stood Federal Hall, where Washington was inaugurated first president of the United States, April 30, 1789. At the head of Wall street, fronting on Broadway, stands Trinity church, the most costly aud magnificent structure ot the kind in America. It is of li^ht-brown freestone, in purely Gothic architecture, and is 192 feet deep, 84 feet wide, the walls 60 feet high, and the spire i-eaching 281 feet above the ground. From the battlement.'', at the base of the spire, appears a magnificent panorama of Ni>w York bay, its islands. New Jer.'sey, and Long island, with Brooklyn, Williamsburgh, and other populous towns ; while below the feet the giant city spreads east, west, north, and south, on each side of Broadway, which for three miles bisects it in nearly a straight direction. This splendid street, which is 80 feet wide, is lined with large and magnificent stores, warehouses, and hotels, built of white marble, freestone, and other durable ma- terials. Below Trinity church, besides a number of fine hotels, there is the United States bonded ware- house. Proceeding northvirard, successively appear the American Museum, the Astor house, occupying an en- tire square, built of blue granite, the city-hall, the Irving house, opposite to which is Stuart's dry-goods palace, a massive structure of white marble, the Society library, City hospital, American institute, St. Nicholas hotel. Academy of Design, Metropolitan hotel, and Grace church, of pure white marble, elaborately sculptured. At Tenth street, Broadway makes a smsill angle, and, after passing Union and Madison squares, proceeds nearly northward to the upper end of the island. Among the public buildings in the lower part of the city is the city -hall, in the "Park," a pleasant triangular en- closure, of ten acres. This edifice is of white marble, except the back, which is of brown freestone. Its architectui-e is a combination of the Ionic, Corinthian, and Composite orders. It is 216 feet long, 105 feet deep, and 65 feet high. Upon the roof is a cupola, with a clock, illuminated at night, and an enonnous bell, the powerful tones of which send the alarm of fire over an area of many miles. Within are well-furnished apart- ments for ditierent offices of the city government ; and in the second story the governor's room, which is dec- orated with portraits of the presidents, governors of the state, mayors of the city, and many American heroes and statesmen. In front of this edifice a splendid foun- tain rises, from the middle of a circular basin, sur- rounded by flowers and shrubs. The park also contains the new city-hall, the hall of records, and several other public buildings, for the accommodation of the courts, and city business. The hall of justice, often called, from its architecture, the " Egyptian Tombs," is a mas- sive and large building, on Centre street, of light-coloied granite, 253 feet long, and 200 feet wide. It contmns the city prison, and other departments of justice. Columbia college is pleasantly situated westward of the park, fronting a beautiful green, the west side of which once overlooked the Hudson, but it is now at a distance of about a fourth of a mile. This institution was founded under George II., in 1754, and has educated some of the most distinguished men of the country. The New York postoffice occupies the old Middle Dutch church on Nassau, Cedar, and Liberty streets. Other prominent buildings worthy of note are Clinton hall, occupied by the Mercantile library ; Odd-Fellows hall, an imposing structure of freestone ; the New York university, an elegant white marble Gothic structure ; the university medical college, on Fourteenth street ; the New York college of physicians and surgeons, on Crosby street ; the New York medical college ; the general tlieological seminary of the protestant episcopal church ; the Union theological seminary ; the free academy; the Astor library; the institution for the blind ; the deaf and dumb asylum ; the New York orphan asylum, upon an attractive slope overlooking the IIiiil.-'iju : thr CI iliired orphan asylum for friendless l)iiy> ; the siiil. ns' lidine ; tlie colored home, and many othiM- iKilili', rhiiiilaiil.' institutions, which form a most enviable oinaaicut of pride and honor for the metropo- lis of America. New York is well furnished with educational and lit- erary privileges, and manifests its high interest in men- tal culture, by the number and excellence of its libra- ries, schools, colleges, lectures, and journals, the latter of which are, in general, superior to those of any other city in the Union, tor intrinsic merits, despatch, and for every requisite of newspaper literature. The public grounds of New York are numerous, but scarcely commensurate with its greatness and wealth. The "Battery," at the south extremity, is an airy and de- lightful resort in summer, carpeted with greensward, shaded with large trees, and fanned by the breezes of the bay. At the southwest side, built up from the water, is Castle-Garden, once a fortification, but now used for pub- lic gatherings, and for the magnificent annual fairs of the American Institute. Its vast amphitheatre will con- tain 10,000 persons. Not far from the battery, at the foot of Broadway, is the " Bowling-Green," a small ellip- tical enclosure, containing a fountain and lofty trees. Here, before the Revolution, stood a gilded leaden statute of George III., which was converted by the pa- triots into bullets, to be fired at the troops of the king, whom it represented. The park has been already no- ticed. Union square is a pleasant oval ground, adorned with flowers, grass, trees, and a fountain. Washington square, formerly a potter's field, lies westward of Broadway, and aftbrds a pleasant promenade. Tomp- kins, Stuyvesant, and Madison squares, are the other public grounds, none of which are sufficiently ample for the wants of tho city. St. John's, and Grammercy, are beautiful private parks. It remains to notice a work which, in grandeur of de- sign, and magnificent execution, is truly worthy of the commercial metropolis of America : the Croton water- works, the most extensive and costly stnicture of the kind in the country, and probably in the world, if we except those at Marseilles, in France. A dam across Croton river, 40 miles north of the city-hall, creates an cxhaustless and beautiful lake, of about 400 acres in area, five miles in circumference, and capable of containing NEW YORK NIC 262 NOB 550,000,000 gallons of water. The aqueduct extenc}.s from this point to Hnrlem river, without interruption, conveying the water through a conduit of masonwork, which has a descent of abo'ut one foot to a mile, is six feet three inches wide at the bottom, seven feet eight inches at the top, and eight feet five inches high. It passes Harlem river upon the " High Bridge, whfch has been pronounced equal to the most magnificent struc- tures, of a similar kind in ancient Rome. Fourteen piers of solid masonry support arches, upon which rests the bridge, 1,450 feet long, and 114 feet above tide- water. After crossing the river, the aqueduct conveys the water to the receiving reservoir, 836 feet wide, 1,825 feet long, and containing 150,000,000 gallons. The water is separated by a partition of masonry, forming two divisions, which may be alternately full and empty, or both full at the same time. The whole area of the surface of the water is equal to 35 acres. From this basin the water is conveyed through iron pipes to the distributing reservoir, two miles southward, whence it is distributed through iron pipes under ground, enters the houses, and cleanses the streets, administering comfort, beauty, and health, to the city and its denizens. The area of the latter reservoir is equal to four acres ; its capacity is 20,000,000 gallons. The water-works can supply 60,000,000 gallons daily ; the average quantity is 30,000,000. The cost of the aqueduct and reservoirs was over $12,000,000. The manufactures of New York, like its commerce, are more extensive than those of any other American city. Ship-building and machinery, are among the branches most largely carried on. Here are built the magniticent ocean steamers, packets, and steamboats, that are the glory of New York. The principal streets are traversed in various direc- tions by omnibus lines, connecting the important points. Ferries communicate with Hoboken, Jersey city, Stat- en Island, Brooklyn, Williamsburgh, and Astoria. The railroads diverging from" New York are, the Harlem ; Hudson River, to Albany ; the New York and New Haven ; the Camden and Amboy ; the Phil- adelphia ; the New Jersey Central ; the Morris and Essex ; the Paterson and Ramapo ; the Erie ; and the Long Island. Not all of these enter the city; many communicate by steamboats from different dis- tances.

Norfolk, city, seat of justice of Norfolk co., Va. Situated on Elizabeth river, opposite Poitsraouth, 32 miles from its entrance through Hampton Roads into the ocean, 106 miles southeast of Richmond, and 230 miles from Washington. This town is more remark- able for its deep and spacious harbor, thau for its ap- pearance. The ground is low and marshy, the Great Dismal swamp covering a large portion of Norfolk county. The streets are generally irregular, and the house's not splendid, though some of the principal avenues are wide, straight, and neat. Hampton Roads arc tlie basin formed by James and Elizabeth rivers be- fore passing into the Atlantic. The entrance to these from tiie ocean, is defended l)y strong fcrtitications. At Gosport, near Portsmouth, on the west side of Elizabeth river, is a navy-yard, with a dry-dock built of hewn granite. The Seaboard and Roanoke railroad connects Ports- mouth with Weldon, on the route of the Washington and Wilmington line. The tummerce of Norfolk exceeds that of any other place in Virginia, and severa! hundred thousand dollars are invested in manufactures.

NORTH CARO- LINA, one ot the Unit- ed States, situated be- tween 33° 53' and 36" 33' north latitude, and 75° 45' and 84° west longitudefrom Green- wich, and is bounded north by Virginia, ea-t and southeast by / the Atlantic, south by I >outh Caidhna and Gt'oiiiia and « est and northwest by Ten- nessee. Superficial area 43,800 sq. miles. Physicnl Aspect. — Tliis state, like South Carolina and Georgia, presents a variety of surface, soil, and climate. It may be physically divided into three zones ; first, the flat sea border, including numerous small islands; second, the sandhill zone, spreading by an indefinite outline between the sea border, and the third, a hilly and partly mountainous tract, beyond the lower falls of the rivers. The maritime section, which extends from 80 to 100 miles inland, is nearly a dead level, varied only by deeply-indented, though shallow sounds, and occasional openings, in the immense forests of pine, with which it is covered, and extensive glades, marshes, or swamps. In the northeastern part, extending into Virginia, lies the Great Dismal swamp, thirty miles long, and ten broad, thickly wooded with pine, juniper, cypress, and in the drier portions with red and white oak. Between Albemarle and Pamlico sounds is the Alligator, or Little Dismal swamp, which contains a lake. Here the soil is generally sandy and poor, though on the banks of some of the streams, particularly those of the Roanoke, it is remarkably fertile. In other in- stances, there are ridges of oak land, of a dark-colored and fruitful soil. After traversing this tedious plain, we are relieved by the appearance of the sand-hills, in the middle section, which, in general, presents an indif- ferent soil. But the third, the hilly and mountainous section, abounds iu excellent soil, pure fountain water, and salubrious air. Those portions of the state lyin^ west of the mountains are also exuberantly fertile, and will richly reward the planter's toil. Mountains. — The Blue ridge constitutes the main range through the western part of the state ; but on most maps is made to represent the outer chain of the Appalachian system, as in the contiguous states. Strict- ly speaking, there are two other chains, between the Blue ridge and the ocean. Black mountain, in Yancey county, is the highest land in the United States, east of the Rocky mountains, being 6,476 feet above tlie level of the sea. Roan mountain is 6,038 feet high, and Great Father mountain 5,556 feet. The chain in the extreme western pait of the state, in which Roan mountain is situated, is known by different names, as Smoky, Unica, Bald. Yellow Iron, and Stone mountains. Rivers, Lakes, Bays, and Sounds. — The principal rivers are, the Chowan, Roanoke, Tar, Neuse, Cape Fear, Waccamaw, Lumber, Catawba, Broad, Yadkin, North, Pungo, Hiwassee, Pamlico, and the Little Ten- nessee. Lake Phelps, Alligator, Mattimuskeet, and Waccamaw, are situated in this state. The principal sounds and bays are, Pamlico and Albemarle sounds, and Onslow and Raleigh bays. Islands and Capes. — The chief islands are, Roanoke, Smith's, Brodie's, Currituck, Hatteras, and Cove. Capes Lookout and Fear are much dreaded by mariners ; and Hatteras is considered the most dangerous headland on the American coast. Climate. — Like most of the other southern states, North Carolina is somewhat varied in its climate, occa- sioned by physical peculiarities of its different parts. In the lower distiicts, intermittents are frequent during the summer and autumn, and the countenances of the inhabitants often have a pale yellowish hue, occasioned by the prevalence of bilious disease. In winter, pleuri- sies are frequent, as well as inflammation of the lungs. In the western and hilly parts of the state the air" is elastic, salubrious and pure, which renders the country as healthy as any part of the United States. The sum- mers are hot, though the evenings are refreshing and cool. Autumn is temperate and serene ; and in some years the winters are so mild, that autumn may be said to continue till spring. The winters in the mountains, however, are visited by frost and snow, and the rigors of the climate are nearly as severe as at the north. Productive Resources. — The great staples of the south, tobacco, cotton, and rice, are extensively cultivated. Other products are, silk, wool, lumber, tuipentine, spirits of tui-pentine, resin, pitch, tar, hay, hemp, flax, wine, sugar, wheat, rye, barley, oats, buckwheat, pota- toes, and Indian com ; also, horses, mules, neat cattle, swine, and poultry. Of the mineral resources, gold, coal, and iron, are the most important The gold region lies on both sides of the Blue ridge, and ex- tends to the eastward of the river Yadkin. It occurs in fine grains, in small masses, or lumps, weighing from one to two pounds, and in veins. Maiiufactures. — North Carolina being an agricultural state, but little attention has been paid to manufactures. There are, however, about thirty cotton factories in the state, which consume about 5,000,000 pounds of cotton annually. There are also a few woollen factories. Other manufactures are, paper, leather, furniture, cut- lery, carriages, &c., though none of them are carried railroads in operation and under construction, in North Carolina. The principal roads completed at present are, the Raleigh and Gaston, 87 miles, and the Wil- mington and Weldon, 167 miles, which connect the towns indicated by their titles. The only canals wholly within the state are, the Weldon, extending ai-ound the NOR 266 NOR fn!l'HlrW^«°T?''y''KJ~ '""*''• ""'^ « «^°rt one connect- mg Harlow and Clubfoot creeks FopiUation.— la 1790, 393.751 • in 1800 47Sim- in ^n?«I'n''ffia°Io^'*''•^^'?^''^^°' 100 572; in 1800, 133,296; ^l^^^d^^'Sli'^^^ - 1830. .35,601; i:; Commerce.-North Carolina has but a limited ford-n commerce, its imports and exports being less than a inilhon annually.

In about the year 1630 another grant was made to Sir Robert Heath, of the tract lying between the thirtieth and thirty-sixth de- pees of north latitude, which was erected into a prov- mc^ under the name of "Carolina." No settlements were made under this grant, however, and consequent- ly It was declared void. The first permanent settlement Jl!« lT?.'°"i"°'7 called North Carolina was made on lin«!» nf p", °J ^^-^ ""T" Cl'owan, near the present village of Edenton, m about the year 1650. by a com- pany of emigrants from Virginia, who tied from re- ligious persecution.

Here are extensive manu- factories of cotton and woollen goods, paper, hardware, pottery, &c. This location was the scene of severe contests between the Mohegan and Narraganset Indians. It was the stronghold of the latter, and here the burial- place of their kings is still to be seen. Near the city there are several picturesque falls or cataracts, and from a high rock which overhangs these water-falls, the Mohegan Indians plunged and perished, rather than fall into the hands of the Narragansets, who were pur- suing them.

OHIO, one of the United States, situ- ated between 38° 34' and 42* north lati- tude, and 80° 35' and 84° 57' west longi- tude from Green- wich ; and is bound- ed north by Michigan and Lake Erie, and ea«t by Pennsylvania, southeast by Virginia, fi om which it is sep- arated by Ohio river, south by Kentucky, from which it is also separated bj the same nver, and west by Indiana. Its superhcial area is 40,000 square miles. Physical Aspect.— This state presents a considerable diversity of surface, as well as of climate. A range of comparatively high land divides the waters which flow into Lake Erie from those which descend into the Ohio, forming two inclined plains of unequal areas. The northern, or Erie plain, does not exceed 25 miles in width at the northeast extremity, but expands to 80 miles in width along the east boundary of Indiana. The mean elevation of the apex of this range is estimated to be 1,000 feet above the ocean tides ; so that, from its proximity to the lake, the descent of the streams, flow- ing in this direction, is somewhat precipitate, and all roll over direct cascades, or falls. On the other hand, the plain inclined toward the Ohio is very gradual in its descent, and falls of any kind are rarely to be found. The central portion of the state occupies an immense plateau, or table-land, comparatively level, and in part marshy, which consists of a diversity of soil, from rich alluvion and prairie, to wild oak " barrens." Along the Ohio river, for fifty or sixty miles back, the country is hilly, and in some parts quite rugged, caused by the abrasion of the streams ; but the chief part of the cen- tral tableland remains unchannelled, presenting a series of broad prairies and other plains. A similar leature is observable along the Ohio shores of Lake Erie, but the surface is less broken, and the hills are more moderate in their height. Rivers, Lakes, and Bays. — The principal rivers of this state are, the Ohio, Muskingum, Hockhocking, Scioto, Great and Little Miami, Rlaumee, Sandusky, Huron, Vermilion, Black, Cuyahoga. Grand, Ashtabula, Au- glaize, Tuscarawas, Walhonding, Olentangy or Wliet- stone, and St. Mary's. Lake Erie lies partly in Ohio, in the western part of which are Mauraee and Sandusky bays ; there is also a good harbor at Cleveland. Climate. — The climate, in general, may be regarded as healthy, except in tlie vicinity of stagnant marshes and sluggish streams, where, in summer and autumn, intermittents usually prevail. Spring and autumn are pleasant; but the winters, though comparatively mild, are subject to great fluctuations of temperature, varying from temperate to 16" Fahrenheit below zero. Productive Resources. — The chief products are, horses, mules, neat cattle, sheep, swine, poultry, eggs, butter, cheese, beef, pork, wax, silk, wool, wine, sugar, hops, tobacco, madder, hay, flax, hemp, lumber, pot and pearl ashes, wheat, rye, barley, oats, buckwheat, pota- toes, and Indian corn. Of the mineral resources, coal, iron, and salt, are the principal, the latter of which is extensively manufactured from salt creeks and springs. Manufactures.— The manufactures of Ohio are already of considerable importance, and are rapidly increasing, in both variety and extent. The abundance of water- power, and the cheapness of coal, will make this section of the Ohio valley the seat of vast manufacturing indus- try. The more important articles of manufacture are, machinery, cotton, woollen, silk, and mixed goods, leather, paper, ironware, agricultural and mechanical implements, cabinetware, hats, steamboats, &c. The number of manufacturing establishments in the state in 1850, producing each $500 worth or more annually, was 10,550. Railroads and Oanals. — Ohio has an extensive system of railroads and canals, communicating with every important point. There are about 2,000 miles already in operation, or in rapid process of construction. The principal of them are, the Cleveland, Columbus, and Cincinnati, 255 miles ; the Cincinnati and Sandusky, 218 miles ; Cleveland and Pittsburgh, 100 miles ; the OHI 274 OLD Ohio and PennsyU-ania, running through the centre of the etate, and connecting the Indiana with the Pennsyl- vania roads ; and the Lake-Shore road, uniting Illinois and Michigan with New York and the eastern states. The most important of the canals in the state is the Ohio canal, 309 miles long, connecting the waters of Lake Erie at Cleveland wfth those of the Ohio river at Portsmouth. The agregate length of the canals is about 650 miles. The tolls collected are about $800,000 annually. Commerce. — With the exception of the trade with Canada, the direct foreign commerce of Ohio is trifling, the exports and imports of 1850 amounting to only 6800.000. But the coasting and river trade is immense. Amount of shipping enrolled in the state about 65,000 tons. Population.— l-a 1790, about 3,000 ; in 1800, 45.365 ; in 1810, 230,760 ; in 18-.20, 581,434 ; in 1830, 937,903 ; in 1840, 1,519,467 ; in 1850, 1,980,408. Education. — The facilities of education in Ohio are ample. Tlie permanent school fund amounts to rising $600,000. The principal literary institutions arc, the University of Ohio, at Athens, founded in 1804 ; the Miami university, in 1809 ; Cincinnati college, in 1819 ; Franklin college, at New Ati|fes, in 1825 ; \Vestern Re- serve college, at Hudson, in 1826 ; the Kenyon college, at Gambia, in 1827 ; the Granville college, at Granville, and Woodward college, at Cincinnati, in 1831 ; the Oberlin college, in 1834 ; the Marietta college, in 1835 ; the St. Xavier college, at Cincinnati, in 1840; the Ohio Wesleyan university, at Delaware, in 1842 ; and the Wittenberg college, at Springtield, in 1845. Law, medi- cal, and theological schools are attached to many of the above. There are near 200 academies, and over 5,000 free common schools established throughout the state. The state has also provided liberally for the education and support of the deaf and dumb, blind, and lunatic. The buildings, with spacious grounds for each class, are situated at Columbus. Government. — The legislative power is vested in a general assembly, consisting of a senate and house of representatives, elected bieimially, on the second Tues- day in October. The senate consists of 35 members, and the house of representatives of 100 members. The legislature meets biennially at Columbus, the first Mon- day in January. The executive departinent consists of a governor, lieutenant-governor (who is president of the senate), secretary of state, auditor, ti-easurer, and an attorney-general, who are chosen by the people at the biennial election. They hold their offices for two years, except the auditor, whose term is four years. The board of public works, consisting of three members, is elected by the people, one annually, for the term of three years. The judicial power is vested in a supreme court, in distiict courts, courts of common pleas, courts of probate, justices of the peace, and in such other courts, inferior to the supreme court, as the genoial assembly may establish ; the five supreme court judges hold their office five years, the term of one of the judges expiring annually. There are nine judges of the com- mon pleas, elected by district for five years. All judges are elected by the people. The elective franchise is enjoyed by every white male citizen of the United States, of the age of 21 years, a resident of the state one year next preceding the election. History. — The French explored the region, and erect- ed forts along the banks of the Ohio river, as far up as Pittsburgh, Penn., as early as 1754. In 1786, what now constitutes the state of Ohio, was erected, by act of Congress, into the " Western Territory," the name of which was afterward changed to the ''Territory North- west of the River Ohio." The first permanent settle- ment was made at Marietta, in 1788, by a small colony from Massachusetts, and the year following a settlement was made near Cincinnati ; this was followed by an- other at Cleveland, in 1796, the emigrants being mostly from New England. Soon after the treaty of Green- ville, in 1795, Michigan was surrendered by Great Brit- ain to the United States, and was annexed to the terri- tory northwest of the river Ohio in 1800. The same year Connecticut relinquished her jurisdiction over the " Western Reserve." In 1799, the first territorial legis- lature met at Cincinnati, and organized the govern- ment. In 1802, Ohio was detached from Michigan, and admitted into the Union as an independent state. Her constitution was framed the same year, at Chillicothe (the capital of the state until it was removed to Colum- bus, in 1812), and continued in operation till 1851, when a new constitution was framed at Columbus, by a con- vention of delegates, and adopted by the people.

Pa OREGON TERRITORY, situated between 42*" and 46* north latitude, and 109^ and 124^ longitude west from Gi"eenwich ; and is bounded on the north by Washington Territory, from which it is separated in part by the Columbia river, east by the Rocky moun- tains, which separate it from the Northwest or Nebras- ka territory, south by Utah and California, and west by I tlie Pacific. Its superficial area is about 200,000 square I miles. PAy.eiVaZ Aspect. — Most of tlie surface of this territory is mountainous and broken. Westward of the Rocky mountains the country is divided into tliree sections, separated from each other by ranges, running nearly parallel with the shores of tlie Pacific, each of which have a distinction of soil, climate, and productions. Tlie region between the Rocky and Blue mountains is rocky and sterile, traversed in various directions by stupendous spurs, and affords but little level ground. The middle section generally consists of a light sandy soil, though in the valleys it is of rich alluvion, and bar- ren on the bills. The soil along the coast is less bro- ken, and for the most part is well adapted for agricul- tural purposes, wherever- it can properly be irri"ated. Mountains. — Along the easterly boundary lie the Ore- gon or Rocky mountains, several of the spure of which traverse the upper region of tliis territory, and are of stupendous height About 250 miles at the westward is the Blue mountain range, which is irregular in its course, and occasionally Interrupted, but generally ex- tends from a point east of north to the south of west About 80 to no miles from the coast, and about 200 miles at the westward of the Blue mountains, is the Cascade or President range, the highest peaks of which are called Mount Jefferson. Mount Rainier, Mount Ba- ker, Mount St Helen's (an extinct volcano), Mount Pitt, and Mount Hood. Some of these are elevated from 12,IX)0 to 17,000 feet above the level of the sea, and are perpetually crowned with snow. In the south part of the territory is the Klamath range, which forms the northern boundary of CalUornia. Rhers and Harbors.— The chief river is the Colum- bia, which takes its rise near the sources of the Mis- souri, along the western dividing ridges of the Rocky mountains. Its principal tributaries are, the Lewis or Saptin, Flathead or Clark's. Kootanie or Flatbow, Chute or Falls, John Day's, Willamette, and Okonagon. The Klamath and Umpqua are considerable rivers, which empty into tlie Pacific. The Columbia river and Puget's sound aflord the only good harbors at present on the coast of Oregon. The trade of that territory is princi- pally through the former. Puget's sound is one of the best harboi^ on the Pacific coast It has numerous nar- row bays or inlets, all of them capable of floating the ORE 277 ORL largest vessels, extending back into the surrounding country in every direction, and is accessibleat all sea- sons of the year. Climate. — The climate of the region between the coast and the first range of mountains though not re- garded as unhealthy, is temponite during the year, and is not suliject to the extremes of heat and cold that are expeiiencod in corresponding I'anillels on tlie eastern coast. The mean annual temperature is about 54" Fah- renheit. The rain bt-gins to fall in Movember, and usually continues at frequent int-rvals till March. Snow sometimes falls, but rarely endures more than two or three days. From the proximity to the mountain winds frosU sometimes occur in August. The climate of the middle region, though colder than that along the coast, is favorable to the growth ot the small grains and grass. In the higher mountain regions the climate is severe, the temperature often varying -10° between sunrise and noon. Hero it seldom rains, and dews are ran-ly known. On the most elevated parts deep snows occur, and abide during the year. Productive Resources. — The chief products are, horses, mules, neat cattle, sheep, swine, furs, wool, lumber, wheat, rye, oats, barley, potatoes, and Indian corn. Oregon is peculiarly adapted to grazing, butter aiul cheesemaking, for the cattle range all winter, and feed upon the grass, which is never entirely killed by fro.st, uor covered with snow. The mineral resources of the country are as yet unknown. Commerce. — Since the discovery of gold in California, a great demand has arisen for the agricultural produc- tions and lumber (which can be furnished to an almost unlimited extent) of Oregon, and, as a consequence, a commercial trade has sprung up. Commercial inter- course is also maintained with the Sandwich islands, and the Russian settlements on the north. Education. — A female seminary is established at Port- land, and three academies at Oregon City, and well- regulated schools in all the pi-incipiU settlements. Population— In 1850, 13,293. History. — Oregon embraces Oregon as claimed by Spain, prior to 1820, or a part of the territory claimed by Russia, piior to 1824, or a portion of the country claimed by Great Britain prior to 1846. Although this coast was explored by the Spaniards, in about the year 1542, and by Sir Francis Drake, in 1578, it would appi>ar that no one penetrated far into the interior before 1792, when Captain Robert Gray, of Boston, Massachusett.", entt>rod Oregon, or Columbia river, in the ship " Co- lumbia Redivina," and gave to this river the present name it bears, alter that of his vessel. In 1805, Lewis and Clarke were sent out by the United States govern- ment, with the express object of exploring the sources of the Missouri, and the region beyonef thp Rocky mountains, and descended the river Columbia to tlie Pacific, and returned the following year by the same streams. In 1808, a trading-house was established by the " Missouri Fur Company" on Lewis river, the first white Bel.leraent of any kind ever made on the waters of the Columbia. In 1810, a private expedition, called the " Pacific Fur Company," was undertaken, at the expense and under the direction of J*)hn Jacob Astor, of New York, who, in 1811, established a colony of one hundred and twenty men, near the mouth of the latter, and called the principal depot " Astoria," after his own name. Two years alter, settlements were made on the Willamette and Lewis rivers, and other places in the interior. Soon after the commencement of the war between Great Britain and the United States, in 1813, Astoria was sold to the Hudson Bay Company, but was restored to the original proprietors in 1818, asreeably to thcv first articles of the treaty of Ghent. The sov- ereignty of Oregon was for a long time subject to a tedious and vexatious controversy by France, Spain, Great Britain, and Rus.«ia, with our government. In the convention of 1818, between the United States and Great Britain, the right of both parties to the country was mutually conceded. Afu^r much controversy the northern boundary was finally established at 49" in 1846, and a territorial governmevit was organized, under an act of Congress, in 1848. In March, 1853, the territory was divided, the southern portion retaining the original name, and the northern part was organized as Wnsliiiisjfon territory OREGON COUNTY, situated on the south boundaiy of Missouri.

Face of the country, hilly ; soil, of middling quality. Seat of jus- tice. Providence. Pop. in 1810, 30,769 ; in 1820. 35,726 ; in 1830, 47,014 ; in 1840, 50,073; in 1850, 87,986. Provide.nxe, city, the seat of justice of Pi-ovidence CO., and capital, with Newport, of the state of Rhode Island ; the second city in population of New England. is situated at the liead of Narraganset bay, on the Providence river, 42 miles southwest of Boston, and 173 miles northeast of New York. The older part of the city lies on the east side of the river, and though many of the streets partake of that irregularity, which seems peculiar to olden times, they contain many splendid stores, warehouses, dwellings, and public buildings. Ascending by an abrupt acclivity from the river, the streets and houses become more regular, many of the residences being of a superior style of elesance and structure, and atibrding delightful views of the harbor and the surrounding country. Crowning the elevation, are the buildings of Brown university, a flourishing institution. Crossing the river by one of the bridges, the west part of the city is laid out with more regularity upon ground less uneven. Here is the " Arcade." the largest and most important edifice in the city, built of granite, and adorned with a Grecian-Doric portico and columns. It is 225 feet long, 80 feet deep, and 72 feet high. The name of the city, which it received from the Rev. Roger Williams, its founder, may serve to indicate its prosperity. Its location upon a spacious and convenient harbor, sulficient for a sreat number of the largest vessels, the manufacturing facilities of the surrounding districts, their facility of access to the city, and the enterprising spirit which has improved and adapted these advan- tages, are the sources of its increasing wealth and popu- lation. The Blackstone canal, beginning at Worcester, and winding through the productive regions and man- ufacturing towns o1f Massachusetts, brings large stores to its market On Pawtucket river, and other streams of Providence county, are extensive factories of cotton, wool, machineiy, calico printing, and dyeing ; and within the city are also various similar establishments. These are chiefly kept in operation bv capitalists of Providence, and employ more than S3.o6o,000 of capital. This city communicates by railroad with Boston, Worcester, and Stonington, and, in a great measure, has dispensed with the steamboat Unes which traversed Long Island sound and the Atlantic to New York, Bos- ton, and other places. The population in 1810, was 10,071, in 1820, 11,767 ■ in 1830, 16,833 ; in 1840, 23,171 ; in 1850, 44,512, Providence, p, t, Saratoga co., N. Y., 41 ms. n. w. of Albany ; from W. 409 ms.

RHODE ISLAND, one ol Ibe United Slates, so called from its island of ihe same name, which was sup- posed to bear a re- semblance to the isle of Rhodes, in the Med- iterranean. It is the smallest state, as re- gards its territory, in the Union, and lies b.nween 41'^ 22' and 3' north latitude, and 71^ 6' and 71" 38' west longitude from Greenwich, noil is liuunded on the north and east by Massachusetts ; ,south by, the Atlantic ; and west by Connecticut. Its euperti'cial area is 1,340 square miles. Phyniral Aspect. — "The surface of this state is general- ly level, except in the northwest part, where it is rocky and hilly. There are many hills, however, as Mount Hope, in Bristol, Hopkins' hill, in West Greenwich, and Woon-socket hill, in Smithfield. The soil on the continental part is tolerably fertile, though thin and lean, and requires much labor to be tilled. But the lands near Narraganset bay, as well as those on the islands, have great Vertility, and are in a high state of cultiva- tion. The soil of this state is generally regarded as bet- ter adapted to ernzinir than tiilau'e. Rivers and Bay.t.-— The principal rivers are the Paw- tucket or Blackstime, Providence, Pawtuxet, Wood, and Pawciituok. Narraganset is the only bay worthy of note, niid nearly divides the state in two. /s/o)i(<».— Resides the isle from which this state takes its name. Block, Canonicut, Prudence, Patience, Hope, Dyer's, and Hog islands, are included within its terri- toi-v. Climate.— The. climate is proverbially healthy; and on the islands, where the sea breezes have the effect, not only to mitigate the heat in summer, but to moder- ate ibe winter's cold, it is more temperate than in any of the oiher New England states. Newport has long been celebrated as a delightful summer residence, and is nuieh resorted to by people from the south. Productive Resources. — The principal products are RIC 309 RIC ( horses, mules, neat cnttlo, sheep, swine, pouUiy, eggs, butter, cheese, wool, hetiip, flux, hay, lumber, wheat, rye, barley, onts, potntoes, ami hulinn corn. Anthracite coal is found anil wrought to o aniall extent ,in this state. Manufactures. — A greater proportion of the people of Rhode Island are employed in inaimfacturing than in any other state of tho Union. Tin- Kiiitr iiboiituls in excellent water-power, ntVordingsitcM for iiimMilMitories, which are extensively improved. The priiu^ipiil manu- factures are woollen and cotton ; but it has seviM'nl furnaces, tanneries, paper-mills, and other establish- m<>nts. Railroads and Canals. — The railroads are principally connecting \\ukn in the tniit line of tmvel from N(^w England to the south. 'I'lic llncc luinclpal roads ex- tend from I'rovidenci- to lloMtmi, Wuicchter, Mans., and Stonington, Conn., re.spi'Ctivcly, mid have ati aggregat(5 length of about 150 miles.

History — The first permanent settlement by Euro- peans, within the present limit* of Rhode Island, was made at Providence, in 1636, by Rev. Roger Williama, who had been banished from tho Massachusetts colony for his peculiar religious opinions. This settlement was called the " Providence Plantation." The next set- tlement was made at Portsmouth, in the northern part of Rhode Island, in 1638, which, tho year following, re- ceived tho name of the " Rhode Island Plantation.'' In 1643, when tho (our colonies of Massachusetts entered into articles of confederation, under tho title of tho " United Colonies of New England," under the pre- tence that the Providence and Rliode Island platitations had no charter, and that their territory was claimed by Plymouth and Massachusetts, they were excluded from tlie confederacy. Tho year following, Roger Wil- liams obtained a free charter from thi; British parlia- ment, and incorporated the two plantations under one government, which continued in force till ]fifi3. when a new charter was granted by Charles II. The latter is the venerable charter und(!r which the people lived and prospered, until its constitution was amended, in 1842. The first general assembly was held at Ports- mouth, in 1647, when the executive power was eon- •fided to a president and four assistants. The constitu- tion of the Unibid States was not adopted in Rhode Island until 1790, after it had received the assent of uU tlie other states. Riblet's, p. o., Richland co., O.

Richmond, city, seat of justice of Henrico co,, and capitiil of Virginia, situated on the nortli side of James river, 1.50 miles from its entrance into Chesapeake buy, and 120 miles south of Washington. In trade, manu- factures, and population, it is the principal city of the state. Directly above it. the river has a descent of about 80 feet in six miles, forming a natural barrier to navi- gation, which has been overcome by a canal around the lulls, and extending 176 miles farther up the river. Through these channels, Richmond has become the entrepot of a fertile region, and receives large quanti- ties of Hour, tobacco, and coal. Vessels of 10 feet draught pass the bar, six miles below the city, and those of 14 feet navigate the river below this point. The location of the city is pleasant and healthful, and is situated on two hills, though not densely built, and in the vidley between them runs Shoekoe creek, a rapid stream. Many beautiful mansions are scattered on these elevations, and on the level top of the westerly one, stands the etatehouse, a chaste and beautiful build- ing, in the centre of an open square. Near this is the city-hal], a large and elegant edifice of Grecian architec- ture. Ill 1811, a theatre was burned on the site where an episcopal church now stands, and a large number of respectable citizens, including the governor of the state, perished. To commemorate this sad event, the Monumental church was erected on the spot where it took place. Near the city is a penitentiary, extending with its grounds over an area of several acres. The manufactures of Richmond are varied and valua- ble, the neighboring streams aflbrding tine water-power, which has been extensively supplied. Here are cotton factories, flouring mills, nail and iron works, and nu- merous other prosperous establishments. Besides the canal before noticed, the city is connected ^nth Norfolk, New York, and otlier points, by steam- boats and sailing-packets. Two bridges extend over .lames river to Manchester, a flourishing suburb of Richmond, upon one of which the Washington and Wilmington railroad enters the city, whence it traverses Virginia and North Carolina. The Virginia Central railroad begins at Richmond, and penetrates the interior of the stati;. The water-works, by which Richmond is supplied, raise the water, by hydraulic power, into tliree reser- voirs, each containing a million of gallons, and from these lead oil" to all parts of the city. The spot on which tliis large and fine city stands was first visited by white men in 1609, when " ^lllster West" penetrated to the falls in search of provisions for the young colony at Jamestown, but found nothing edible except acorns. Richmond was founded in 1742. and made the capital of the state in 1780, since which it has been steadily incivasing. Tlie population in 1800, was 5,537 ; in 1810. 9,735 ; in 18J0. 12,046; in 1830, 16,060; in 1840,20,153; in 1850, 35,482. Richmond, p. v„ Dallas co., Ala. ; from W. 879 ms.

New Mexico, is situated east of the Rio del Norte, about 600 miles from the gulf of Mexico. It has long been an im- portant rendezvous of traders from other parts of the Union and from Mexico. Between 1834 and 1841, the annual value of the trade passing through this place was from $2,000,000 to $.3,000,000. The hostilities be- tween the United Statf^s and Mexico checked this pros- perity ; but the annexation of New Mexico, and the rapid settlement of California, are sources of perma- nent advantage, of which the influence has been already felt. The annoyances from hostile Indians, to which traders have always been more or less exposed, are the principal obstacles to its rapid increase. The popula- tion is about 5,000. Santa Fe, p. o..

Savannah, p. o., Ashland co., O., 86 ms. N. of Co- lumbus ; from W. 375 ms. Savannah, city, the seat of justice of Chatham co., Ga., situated on the south side of the river from which it is named, 17 miles from the sea, and 1.58 miles south- east of Milledgeville, the state capital, is llie principal city of Georgia, and one of the most favorably-located ports in the southern states. It is 90 miles southwest of Charleston, and 6C2 miles from Washington. Near the river, the bank is about forty feet high. Along the foot of this bluir are stores and warehouses, %vhile the streets of the city extend over the level at the top of this eminence. Tbey are rendered remarkably pleas- ant by lines of trees along their sides and through their middle, shading the traveller from the southern sun, and affording delightful walks at all times of the day. In 1820, a conflagration destroyed a great portion of the city, but it has been rebuilt with increased solidity and beauty. Formerlj', the rice-swamps in the vicinity, and other circumstances, contributed to render Savannah as unhealthy as it is now salubrious. This change is owing to the improvements in the culture of rice, and in the condition of the city. The exobaiige, courthouse, hospital, arsenal, guardhouse, jail, together with numer- ous churches and banks, display the characteristic en- terprise and liberality of the citizens ; while airy, ver- dant, and shady parks, are interspersed more frequently in this than in most other American cities. Among oth- er splendid trees, the "Pride of China" (axederachyholds u conspicuous rank. Savannah has an excellent harbor, with a safe and easy entrance from the ocean. Several islands are formed by the embouchures of the river, affording both protection and ornament. Upon Tybee island, a light- house marks the entrance to the port, while two forts protect the city from outward assault. Vessels of 13 feet draught anchor at the wharves of the city, those of larger size at a point several miles below. Above Sa- vannah, the river is navigable for steamboats of 150 tons to Augusta, 150 miles. By this and other channels, most of the cotton, tobacco, sugar, lumber, and other staples of Georgia, are conveyed to Savannah, where they find a market, or are exported. This city, from its favorable commercial situation, on a coast not well supplied with good harbors, is the receptable of pro- ductions from an extensive region. Late improvements in railroads and other channels of communication have added largely to its growth and prosperity. A canal connects Ogeechee river with the Savannah. Steam- boats navigate the principal rivers of the stflte, and sail to Charleston and other cities on the coast, and regu- lar steam and sailing packets communicate with New York. The Central railroad extends 191 miles to JIaeon, whence the Macon and Western railroad proceeds 101 miles, in a northwesterly direction, to Atlanta. Through this place passes the Georgia and Western and Atlantic railroad, from Augusta to Chattanooga, on Tennessee river, in Hamilton county. Tennessee.

Y., 16 ms. n. w. of Albany ; from W. 384 miles. Watered by the Mohawk river, which forms its northern boundary. It is one of the oldest towns in the state, having been settled by the Dutch as a trading post in 1620, and was, for a long period, important as a fron- tier position, nothing but a wilderness being found be- tween it and Canada. In the year 1769, while a mere village, garrisoned by a few troops, Schenectady was the victim of the jealousies and contentions of those sent for its protection ; for the soldiers having deserted their posts, one of those secret predatory bands of savages, which were long the scourg:e of our frontier settlements, led on by Frenchmen from Canada, fell upon it in the dead of night, massacred almost every man, woman, and child, and burnt their dwellings. A few fugitives escaped, and carried the shocking tale to Albany. Schenectady was chartered as a city in 1798. For a number of years it has been distinguished as the seat of one of the most flourishing literary institutions in the state, Union college, the edifices of which occupy a pleasant and commanding position, overlooking the extensive meadows of the Mohawk, surrounded by a succession of undulated and hilly country, and enlivened by tlie Erie canal and the lines of railroads which here meet by various routes from Albany, and proceed on in company, with occasional separations, to Rochester, and finally terminate together at Buffalo.

SOUTH CAROLI- NA, one ot the Uni- ted Stntes. lies be- tween a-.?'^ i" and 30-^ KV north latitude, and 7S^ 24' and Si" 30- west longitude from |(ireenwieli ; bound- -d N. by North Caro- lina, s. k. by the Atlan- tic, and westerly by Georgia, from which it is separated by Sa- vannah river. Its su- perticial area is 28,000 square miles. Physical Aspe^:t.—Th\s state, like North Carolina and Georgia, presents a great diversity of surface, as well as of soil and climate, and may also be physically di- vided into three zones. The tirs't bordering on the Atlan- tic, is that of sea-sand alluvion, below the lower fi.lls of the rivers, about 60 miles wide, and in most places pen- etrated by the tide. The second commences along or near the lower falls and primitive ledge. The sea-sand zone is very nearly a dead plain, but at its interior mar- gin hills begin to appear, springs of water become plen- tiful, tlie soil meliorates, and the whole face of nature assumes an agreeable diversity of surface. The third, or what may be called the mountain zone, though but little of it is really mountainous, comprises the north- western part of the state, and lies based on the Blue Ridge chain. The first of these zones, which includes the '• Sea islands." is covered with extensive tracts of pine " barrens," open plains without wood, savannas, swamps, and salt marsh, presenting the most fertile and the most sterile extremes of soil. The second zone displays, amid a series of hills, bold, swelling, and va- ried in their fonn, a rapid succession of rich cotton lands, meadows, orchards, and fields of small grain, in- terluded by extensive forests, barrens, and swamps. As we approach the mountainous zone, we are gratified by the pleasant alternation of hill and dale ; the lively verdure of the hills is contrasted with the deeper tints of the forests which decorates their sides ; and in the valleys, broad rivers roll their waters through the va- ried beauties of the luxuriant and cultivated fields. From these delightful regions the surface still continues to rise, till we reach the western limit of the state. Mountains. — The Blue Ridge, or Appalachian chain, traverses this state in its northwt>st part, of which Table mountain is the most conspicuous. The other mountains are Olenoy, Oconee, Paris, Glassy's, Hog- Back, and King's. Rivers, Bay$~ and Sounds. — The principal rivers are, the Savannah, Pedee, Black, Santee, Cooper, Ashley, Stono. Edisto, .4shepos, Coinbahee, Coosaw, Broad, and Waccamaw. Besides Bull's and Wiuyaw bays, this state contains numerous estuaries, and sounds, the principal of which are. Port Royal and Georgetown entrances, and Tyree and St. Helena soflnds. Js?ari(fc. — The coast is bordered by a chain of fine islands, the most important of which arc. Port Royal, St. Helena, Edisto, Ladu's, Trench's, Hunting, and Rac- coon keys. Climau.— The climate along the seaboard is moist, very changeable, and, during 'summer and autumn, is extremely' unhealthy. The middle region, particularly in winter and spring, is regarded as tlie most healthy part of the state. In short,' all the districts of the up- per country enjoy as salubrious a climate as is found in the Union. Productive Resources.— The principal products of this state are, horses, mules, neat cattle, sheep, swine, poultry, sugar, wax, hay, lumber, pitch, tar, turpen- tine, cotton, wool, silk, tobacco, rice, wheat, rye, barley, onts, sweet potatoes, and Indian com. Of the miner- al and fossil resources of tlie state, gold is found in con- siderable abundance, but the •' diggings" are less nu- merous than in Georgia and North 'Carolina. Marble, limestone, granite, oil and soap-stone, iron and lead ores, talc, asbestos, plumbago, pyrites, ochres used for painting, potter's clay, and "fullers' earth, also occur in greater or less abundance. Manufactures.— The manufactures of South Carolina are limited in extent. There are about 20 cotton-mills, which consume about 4,000,000 pounds of cotton an- nually. There were, in 1850, over 1,400 manufactur- ing establishments of all kinds in the state. Railroads and Canah—The aggregate length of rail- roads in operation in the state is 'about 300 miles, and about tlie same amount in process of construction. The longest c^nal in the state is the Santee, from Charleston to Santee river, 22 miles. There are sev- eral other shorter ones, amounting in the aggregate to about 30 miles. Commerce.— The foreign commerce of South Caro- lina is quite large, its exports and imports amounting to about $14,000,000 annually. The shipping owned in the state is about 40,000 tons. Charleston is the principal port, and enjoys about nine tenths of the commerce. Education. — There are three colleges in South Caro- lina. The Charleston college, founded in 1785 ; the college of South Carolina, founded in 1804 ; and the ErskTne college, in Abbeville district. There are three theological seminaries in the state. There is also a medical college at Charleston. There are about 1,000 public schools, and 200 academies, in various parts of the state.

History. — The state of South Carolina embraces a portion of the ancient territory of Florida, as first dis- covered by Ponce de Leon, in 1512 ; as well as a part of Carolina, as colonized by Coligni with Huguenots, in 1562-'65 ; or a part of Virginia, as granted to Sir Wal- ter Raleigh, in 1584. In ahout the' year 1630, another grant was made to Sir Robert Heath, of the tract lying between 30" and 36'^ north latitude, which was erected into a province, under the name of " Carolina," As no settlements were made under this grant, the charter was declared void. In 1663, the province of Carolina was granted, by Charles II.. to Lord Clarendon and seven others. Two years later, the grant was enlarged, so as to comprise all the territory between 31" 'and 36^" north latitude, extending westward from sea to sea. In 1670, a small body of EngUsh emigrants, under Wil- liam Sayle, commenced the settlement of Old Charles- ton, on the south side of Ashley river, which they called '• Carteret County Colony," in honor of one of the proprietors. From this place they removed, in 1679, to the present site of Charleston. In 1720, the proprie- tary government was thrown oft", and that of the crown established. In 1729, after much controversy and diffi- culty between the proprietors and the crown, seven out of the eight sold all their claims to the soil and rents in both Carolinas to the king, for £17,500, and the provinces tlien became royal governments, entirely unconnected, under which they remained until the Revolution. South Carolina early resisted British oppression, and was one of the confederacy in 1776 It ratified tlie constitution of tlie United States, and was admitted into the Union as a sovereign state, in 1788. Mottoes of the seal Animia ophibusque parati: " Ever ready in spirit and achieve- ments." Reverse — Dura spiro spero : " While I live I hope." Government. — The governor is elected for two years, by a joint vote of both houses of the assembly. After having served one term, he is ineligible for "the next four years. A lieutenant-governor is chosen in the same 'manner, and for the 'same period. The senate consists of 45 members, elected by districts for four years. The house of representatives consists of 124 members, apportioned among the several districts, ac- cording to the number of white inhabitants and taxa- tion, and are elected for two years.

C. of tlie United States, lies between 36° and .37" 42' north latitude, and 81" 30' and 90» 10' w. longitude from Greenwich ; and is 'lounded north by Kentucky and Vir- ginia, southeast by North Carolina, from ■which it is separated by the Iron and Una- ka mountains, south by Georgia, Alabama, and Mississippi, and west by Arkansas and Missouri, from which it is sepa- rated by the Mississippi river. Its superficial area is 45,6f)0 square miles. Physical Aspect. — This state is widely diversified in surface, soil, and climate. The eastern portion abounds in mountains and hills, some of them lolty, and present- ing scenery peculiarly grand and picturesque. The middle section is less bold in its features, though hilly, and gradually becomes undulating, and even level, as we approach the Ohio. The geological formation is wholly secondary, except a small portion of the eastern part, which is transition, and numerous spots of allu- vion on the banks of the streams. The soil of the west- ern division is black and rich ; in the middle there are large quantities of excellent land ; and in the eastern or mountainous parts the soil is generally thin, except in the valleys, where it is exuberantly fertile. Mountains. — Of these, the Cumberland, or Great Lau- rel ridge, is the most remarkable. Stone, Yellow-Iron, Smoky, and Unaka mountains, join each other, and TEN 353 TEX form (in a direction nearly northeast and Bouthwest) the boundary between North Carolina and (his state. Northwesterly of these, and separated from each other by valleya from five to fifteen miles wide, are Bay's, Clinch, and Powell's mountains, and Copper and Wcl- ling's ridges. Rivers. — The principal rivers are, the Mississippi, Cumberland, Tennessee, Clinch, Holston, DucIj, French, Broad, Hiwasse, Nolichucky, Rcelfoot, TcUico, Obion, Elk, Forked Deer, and Wolf. Climate. — The climate is comparatively mild, and generally liciiltliy. On some low grounds, however, in the western part of the state, bilious attacks and agues prevail more or less during the summer and autumn months. In the eastern division, the temperattire is so modified by the mountain air on one side, and the breezes from the Mexican g\ilf on the other, that its climate, perhaps, is as desirable as any in the Union. The winters are by no means severe, and snow seldom falls to a greater depth than ten inches, or lies upon the ground longer than ten days. Productive Resources. — The chief products are, horses, mules, neat cattle, sheep, swine, poultry, sugar, wax, Bilk, wool, cotton, hemp, flax, hay, pitch, tar, tobacco, rice, wheat, rye, barley, buckwheat, oats, potatoes, and Indian corn. Of the mineral and fossil resources, iron, gold, bituminous coal, salt, marl, buhr-stone, and salt- petre, are the principal. Nitrous earth is obtained from the caverns, ot which there are several in the state. Manufactures. — In 1850, thero were in Tennessee 2,789 manufacturing establishments, that produced goods to the value of $500 and upward each annually. The principal manufactures are, cotton and woollen goods, leather, pottery, machinery, carriages, cordage, ifcc. Railroads. — The principal roads in Tennessee now in operation are, the Charleston and Memphis, and one from the Georgia state line to Chattanooga ; but there are several other roads in rapid process of construction, and still others projected. Commerce. — Tennessee has no direct foreign com- merce, but its internal and river trade is large. Education. — There are in Tennessee two universities, and six colleges, namely: East Tennessee college, founded in 1792 ; Greenville and Washington colleges, in 1794 ; Nashville university, in 1806 ; Jackson college, in 1833 ; Cumberland university, in 18-14 ; Franklin col- lege, in 1845 ; and Union college, in 1848. There are also two theolou'ical seminaries, a law and a medical school, about 200 academies and high schools, and 1,500 common schools in the state. Population.— In 1790, 30,791; in 1800, 105,602; in 1810, 2ng and constant breezes, which begin to blovy soon after the rising of the sun, and continue until afternoon. The nights throughout the middle region are refreshing and cool during the year. Productive Resources.— The chief products of this state are, horses, mules, neat cattle, sheep, swine, wool, cotton, tobacco, oranges, figs, wine, olives, dates, sugar- cane, wheat, rye, barley, oats, rice, potatoes, and In- dian com. Cotton and sugar-cane are the agricultural staples. The mineral and fossil resources are, silver, iron, coal, bitumen, nitre, granite, limestone, slate, and gypsum. Salt may be manufactured from numerous lakes and springs. Buffalo and wild horses are found in vast numbers on the prairies. Manvfactures. — Texas at present is wholly an agricul- tural state ; but it possesses all the pre-requisites for becoming eminently a manufacturing one. Its water- power is abundant ; its labor cheap ; and in its cotton, wool, iron, &c., may be found material to supply the demand of a manufacturing industry to almost an un- limited extent. Railroads and Canals. — Texas is as yet vpithout these important aids to internal commerce. Several railroads have been projected ; among them may be mentioned, one extending from Red river to the gulf of Mexico. Commerce.— The direct foreign commerce of Texas is small, amounting, in 1850, to' but about .S.'-O.OOO. Its coasting-trade, however, is of mure iiiipoitance. The shipping owned within the state amounts to about 50,000 tons. Education. — The principal collegiate institutions in Texas are, the Baylor university, at Independence, founded in 1844; the University of San Augustine; Wesleyan college, at San Augustine ; Rutersville col- lege, and university of Nacogdoches. Its public school fund is derived principally from the school lands, and common schools are being established throughout the state. Population.— h 1820, about 3,000 ; in 1850, 213,492 Number of slaves in 18.50, 50,161. Government. — The legislative power is vested in a senate and house of representatives. The senators are elected by the people, by districts, for the term of four years, one half being chosen biennially ; their number is not to be less than nineteen, nor more than thirty- one. The representatives are elected for two years, by the people, by counties ; the number is not to be less than forty-five, nor more than ninety. The executive power is vested in a governor, elected by the people, at the time and places of elections for members of the legislature ; he holds his office for the term of two years, but is not eligible for more than four years in any term of six years. At the same time, a lieutenant- governor is chosen for the same term, who is president of the senate, and succeeds the governor in case of death, resignation, &c., of the latter. The judicial power is vested in a supreme court of three judges, in district courts, and in such inferior courts, as the legis- lature may, from time to time, establish. The judges of the supreme and district courts are appointed by the governor, and hold their offices for six years. The right of suffrage is granted to every free white male person over the age of 21 years, a citizen of the United States, who shall have resided in the state one year next preceding an election, and the last six months within the district in which he offers to vote. The ere- ation, extension, or renewal of any banking or discount- ing company is prohibited. There is no imprisonment for debt. History.— The present state of Texas embraces a part of the extensive country of Louisiana, as claimed by France, prior to the year 1763. It also comprised a province of Mexico, in the Provincias Internas. and re- mained as such, under Spanish, and subsequently under Mexican rule, until it declared its independence, in 1836. The first post in this country was established at Bexar, by the Spaniards, in IfiPl. In the year ]fi8,5. La Salle, in attempting to establish a colony at tlie mouth of the Mississippi, was dec(Mved by his reckoning, and landed at the head of Matagorda bay, within the pres- ent limits of Texas, where the settlement of St. Louis was formed, Althouffh this little colony was soon after broken up by the Indians, yet, as the standard of France had first been planteil flu ip, this region was thence- forth claim-'d as an appemla^e to Louisiana, With the exception of one or twn tuiiiiipiirtant missions, no other settlements wire maile in Texas until 1692, when a Spani.-:h colony was planted at San Antonio de Bexar. Owing to various circu!iistances. it remained almost entirely unknown to the rest of the world, until the breaking out of the first Mexican revolution, in 1810. The only settlements of importance at that time were those of San Antonio de Bexar, Nacogdoches, and La Bahia, or Goliad. From the unsettled state of the coun- try immigration was prevented, and it was not until after the "second Mexican revolution, when she achiev- ed her independence, in 18i.'l, that any substantial ad- vances were made toward further colonization. From this period emigrants in large numbers, mostly from the United State's, continued "to flow into Texas, under the encouragement of Mexico. When the federal con- stitution was overthrown, in 1834, the people of Texas refused to acknowledsre the new eovemment. They had sued for admission into the iMexican confederacy, a.s an independent state in 1832, but were refused, as Mexico was iealous of the growing power of the prov- ince. In 1835, a Mexican army was sent to reduce them to submission. In March, 1836, Texas declared itself an independent republic, and elected David G. Burnett president. A constitution was formed, having for its basis that of the United States. The battle of San .lacinto was fought on the 21st of April, between the Texan troops, under General Houstnn, and the Mexican army, under President Santa Ana, in which the latter was signally defeated. General Houston was elected president of the republic- in September follow- iniT. It sought for admission into the Union, which was granted' by an act of Congress passed in February, 1845. On the 4th of July following the people of Texas, THO 356 TIG In convention, adopted a state constitution, and it be- caiDp an independent state of the Union.

Y., is situated on the east side i>f Hudson river, 6 miles north of Albany, and l.M miles north of New York. Former- ly, this point whs the lieail of . spans the Hudson to West Troy, a tlourishine village in Albany county, where there is a United Smtes arsenal, an extensive bell-foundry, cotton tacto- ings of Troy, besides its churches, the Troy Female institute and the Troy academy ileserve notice frmn the reputjition which they enjoy. Water is co!n-<>y(>d to the city from a basin in Lansinburgli, elevated ~i fivt above the level of the stitH-ts, through which it is distributed by iron pipes buried under ground. One and a half millions of gallons are thus supplied for daily consumption, or to extinguish tires. Troy IS united to Lake Chaniplain by railroad, via Saratoga and Whitehall, to Greenbush, opposite .Alba- ny ; Biui to Schenectady, on llie gn-al central line, by one ot two branch railroads — the other proceeding from Schenectady to Albany. Thcie has been considerable rivalry in enterprise iVtween Albany and Trey, which has prebably injured neither city.

Area, square miles. Seat of justice, Utah Lake. Utah Lake, p. o., Utah co., Utah territory. UTAH TERRITORY, formeriy a part of California, and the "Deseret" of the Mormons, is situated be- tween 37" and 42° north latitude, and 106" and 120" longitude west from Greenwich ; and is bounded on the north by the territory of Oregon, on the east by the Indian territory and New Mexico (from which it is sep- arated by the crest of the Rocky mountains), on the south by New Mexico, and on the west by Calitoraia. Its superficial area is 188,000 square miles. Physical Aspect. — Utah is one of the most singular countries in the world. It occupies the northern por- tion of the great basin between the Sierra Nevada and the Rocky mountains. The basin is some 500 miles in diameter every way, and comprises an area of 393,601 square miles. It is between 4,000 and 5,000 feet above the level of the sea, shut in all around by mountains, with its own system of lakes and rivers, and without any direct connection with the ocean. Partly arid and thinly inhabited, its general character is that of a desert, but with great exceptions — there being many parts of it very fit for the residence of a civilized people ; and of these the Moi-mons have established themselves in one of the largest and best. Mountain is the predomi- nating structure of the interior of the basin, with plains between ; the mountains wooded and watered — the plains arid and sterile. Moimtains.— As mentioned above, the Rocky mount- ains extend along the eastern border of this territory, and the Sierra Nevada along the west. Two other ranges cross the territory, one named the Wahsatch river mountains, and the other the Humboldt's River or Timpanogos mountains. Rivers and Lakes. — The principal rivers in Utah are, the Colorado, which, rising among the Rocky mount- ains in Oregon, empties into the gulf of California ; and Humboldt's river, rising in the mountains to which it has given a name, and, after a long and solitary course, emptying into Humboldt lake. Other rivers are, Bear, Utah, Timpanogos, Nicollet, Salmon-Trout, Carson, Walker's, and Owen's rivers. — The most important lake in Utah is the Great Salt lake. The waters of this sheet are shallow, so far as explored, and are intensely salt, more so than those of the ocean — three gallons making one gallon of the purest, whitest, and finest salt. The shape of this lake is irregular, and it encloses numerous islands. It is supposed to be about 70 miles long. The lake has no known outlet. Utah lake is of fresh water, 35 miles long, and receives numerous fresh-water streams from the mountains. This lake abounds in fish. Utah lake is about 100 lieet above the level of the Salt lake, and is connected with it by a strait. VAL 365 VAN about 35 miles in length, called by the Mormons thfi river Jordan. There are several other smaller laSfes in Utah, but little is known of them beyond their locality. Climate. — The climate of Utah does not present the rigorous winter which its mountain structure would seem to call for. The temperature is little lower than that incident to the latitude, and summer ia scarcely gone before November. Productive Resources. — Wheat, oats, and barley, yield abundantly in the Great Valley. Melons and all the vini>s grow in perfection, as also do vegetables ; while hopeful efforts are makina: to raise the olive, orange, lemon, pineapple, tea, coffee, &c. The valley below produces tropical fruits, while the beech-land, or old inke-shore, at the altitude of three or four hundred feet, briiiirs forth all the productions of the temperate zones ; and still higlior up, the cedar, pine, juniper, and other evergreens of a nortlieni clime, flourish. The pastu- riig<' on the plains, as well as on the beech-land and side-hillt', is luxuriant (the verdure reaching to the mountaintops). equal for fattening qualities to that of Cnlifornia. Utah abounds in minerals. A geographi- cal survey has brought to light an inexhaustible bed of ftone-coal, equalling that of Newcastle ; iron ore, with a vein of silver running through it, which latter alone would pay for working ; gold, in small quantities, and platina, are found ; and traces of copper and zinc have been discovered. Its mineral springs are famous, little as they have been tried, and their analysis shows them to be equal to those most resorted to at the east. Population. — According to the census of 1850, there were 11,1380 inhabitants in this territory. Government. — Under the act of Congress organizing the territory of Utah, a legislative assembly is provided for, elected annually by the people, consisting of a coun- cil and house of representatives. All laws passed by the legislature require the approval of Congress to be valid. The governor and secretary of state are appoint- ed by the president for four years. The judicial power is vested in a supreme court, district ind probate courts, the judges of which are appointed by the president. The right of suffrage and eligibility to office are secured to every white mate inhabitant, who was a resident of the territory at its organization, but the qualifications at subsequent elections are prescribed by the territorial legislature. History.— That portion of Alta-Culifomia, now des- ignated as the territory of Utah, was never settled by the Spaniards, nor was it ever more than a nominal de- pendency of that nation, or of the Mexican republic. Previous to the Mexican war, indeed, few white men, except those engaged in scientific explorations, had en- tered the country. About the period when that war broke out, the Mormons were driven from their city of Nauvoo, in Illinois, by mob-violence; and shortly afterward, a portion of them, under the leadership of Strang, removed to Beaver island, in Lake Michigan ; whilethe main body of the sect, directed by Krigham Young (who was regarded as their true " prophet" after the death of their founder, Joseph Smith, and in oppo- sition to the " infidel" leader Strang), migrated to the borders of the Great Salt lake. Their settlements be- came prosperous and populous, and within two years after the first pioneers had entered the country their niimbers had increased to about 10,000, After peace had been ratified, they found themselves without a civil government, and without protection for their persons or propei-ty. To remedy this anomalous condition of things, they organized a temporary government under the style of the " State of Deseret." Under its sanction they elected oflScers to manage the affairs of the com- monwealth, and made application to Congress to be admitted into the Union as a sovereign state. But Con- gress did not deem that this new settlement had arrived at that state of maturity which would justify its erec- tion into a state, and passed a law authorizing its organ- ization as a territory. Congress reserved the right with Utah, as also with New Mexico, to divide it into two or more territories, or to attach portions of it to any state or territoi-y in such manner and at such times as it may deem convenient and proper.

Y., situ- ated south of Mohawk river, 92 miles northwest of Al- bany, 23.3 miles east of Buffalo, and 388 miles from Washington. The city is built on a pleasant slope, facing the river ; its streets are generally broad and reg- ular, and its aspect exhibits the signs of prosperity, business activity, and successful inciustry. The Erie canal and the great central chain of railroads pass through Utica, and the former is here joined by the Chenango canal, which extends to Binghamton, on the Erie railroad, and furnishing an outlet for the agricul- tural products of the surrounding country. Manufac- tures of various kinds are extensively carried on. The population in 1820 was 2,972; in 1830, 8,323; in 1840, 12,782; in 1850, 17,565.

VER 368 VER VERMONT, one of the United States, signifying in French, " Green Mountains." vva8 tirst so called by I he people, in their dL'Claration of inde- pendence, in 1777. It lies between 42° ' 44' and 45° north lati- tude, and 71" 33' and 73" 25' west longitude from Greenwich, and is bounded north by Canada ; east by New Hampshire, which is separated from it by Ccjnnevticut river ; south by Alas- sachusetts ; and west By New York^from which it is eepaiated, in part, by Lake Champlain, and contains 10,200 square miles. Physical Aspect. — The surface of this state is generally uneven, and a great part of it mountainous. A large I)roportion of the soil is fertile, and adapted to the various purposes of northern agriculture. It is gen- erally deep, of a dark color, rich, moi.st, warm, loamy, and seldom parched by drought. The "intervales" along the rivers and lakes are regarded as the best for tillage; and much of the land among the mountains is excellent for grazing, and here there are found many fine farms. Mountains. — The Green mountains, so named on account of the evergreens with which they are covered, extend in a lofty, unbroken range, quite through the central part of tlie state, from north to south. In the southern part of Washington county they are separated into two ridges, the mo3t~westerly of which is much the highest. The highest elevations in this ridge are Kil- liugton peak, Camel's Hump, or " Camel's Rump," as it is commonly called, and tlie " Chin," in Mansfield mountains. Ascutney is another noted mountaiu of this state, lying at the southward of Windsor. Rivers and Lakes.— The principal rivers are the Con- necticut, Lamoille, Onion, Missisque, Winooski, White, Black, Passumpsic, Deerfield, West, and Otter Creek. Lakes Champlain and Memphremagog lie partly in this state. Among the smaller bodies of water are Lakes Dunmore and Bombazine. Islands. — The principal of these are North and South Hero, and La Motte, all of which are in Lake Cham- plain. Climate. — The climate is remarkably healthy, but is subject to great extremes of heat and cold, the range of temperature varying from 27" below zero Fahrenheit to IOC above. Winter usually commences in its great- est severity early in December, and often continues till April. During this season there is generally a preva- lence of fair weather, and the cold is more uniform and steady than in other parts of New England near the coast. Productive Resources.— The chief products are horses, mules, neat cattle, sheep, swine, poultry, butter, cheese, sugar, wax, silk, wool, lumber, pot and pearl ashes, hay, hops, hemp, flax, wheat, rye, barley, buckwheat, oats, potatoes, and Indian corn. Of the mineral or fossil resources, lead, iron, copperas, marble, limestone, and granite, form the principal. Manufactures.— Lenther, bar and cast iron, boots and shoes, linseed oil, nails, mechanical and agricultural implements, cotton and woollen goods, paper, &c., are among the products of manufacturing industry. Mar- ble is quarried, sawn, and polished, in several places. Railroads and Canals.— There are several long lines of railroad in Vermont, extending from the borders of Massachusetts and New Hampshire to Burlington and Canada, and from Rutland to Whitehall and "Troy in New York. There are about 400 miles of railroad in the state. There are some short canals, designed to overcome obstructions in the navigation of the Connec- ticut and White rivers. Commerce. — Tlie foreign commerce of Vermont is mostly with Canada. Its principal port is Burlington, on Lake Champlain Its domestic and foreign trade amounts in value to about three fourths of a million of dollars annually. Education. — The oldest literary institution is the university at Burlington, founded in 1791. There are also, Middlebury college, Norwich university, and a medical school at Woodstock, all in a flourishing condi- tion. Besides these, there are many academies, and eome 3,000 common schools in the state Population.— In 1790, 85,416: in 1800, 154,465; in 1810, 217,713 ; in 1820, 235,764 ; in 1830, 280,652 ; in 1840, 291,- 948; in 1850, 314,120. Government.— The legislative power is vested in a senate of thirty members, and a house of representa- tives, consisting of one member from each town ; and the executive power in a governor, or, in his absence, a lieutenant-governor — allchosen annually by the peo- ple, on the first Tuesday in September. The judiciary powers are vested in a supreme court of five judges, and county courts (each composed of one judge of the supreme court and two assistant judges), all chosen an- nually by the legislature. A council of thirteen censors is chosen once in seven years, to supervise the legisla- tive and executive branches of government. The right of sulFrage vests in male citizens of twenty-one years of age, who have resided in the state one year, and are of quiet and peaceable behavior. History. — Ihe first permanent settlement in Vermont was made at Fort Dummer, in 1724, though the north- westerly part of this state was visited by Champlain and others as early as 1609. In the year 1739, New Hampshire claimed jurisdiction of the territory, and made many grants of land west of Connecticut river. The same territory was also claimed by New York, who=e right was established by decision of the crown, in 1764. In the meantime. New York had also made grants to others of the same tracts, which caused con- tinued disputes, and even resistance, for years, in 1774, New York passed severe enactments on the sub- ject ; but, at the commencement of the Revolution, the contest was suspended. In 1777, the peopl?, preferring a government of their own, met in convention, and de- clared themselves a free and independent state. In consequence of these conflicting claims, Congress dared not admit Vermont into the Union at the commence- ment of the Revolutionary war, for fear of oflending New Hampshire anjd New York, although she had ex- pressed a readiness to throw otf the British yoke. By another convention, held at Windsor, in 1777, a state constitution was adopted, but the government was not organized before 1778. In 1786, this constitution was modified, and was again revised in 1793. In 1790, the controversy with New York was ended by the payment of $30,000, and the year following Vermont was admit- ted into the Union as a sovereign state.

VIR 370 VIR VIB.GINIA, one of the Unitod :?tates, popularly known as the '• Old Dominion," is fitnated between 36° 33' and 40^ 43' x. latitudp, and 75° 25' and 83° 40' west lon- gitude from Green- wich : and is bounded north by Ohio, Penn- sylvania, and Mary- land; northeast by Ma- ryland, from which it is separated by the Potomac ; east by the Atlantic ; south by North Carolina and Tennessee ; west by Kentucky, from which it is separated by the Cum- berland mountains and Big Sandy river; and north- west by Ohio, from which it is separated by the river Ohio. Its superficial area is 61,352 square miles. Physical Aspect.— The face of the country of this state, though exhibiting but little grandeur, is greatly diversified, and in some parts is rich and pleasing, in the continued outline ot hill, valley, river, and phiin. The soil, too, is as varied as the surface, as every grade of fertility and sterility is to be met with, from the rich- est to the most barren. Virginia may be divided into four zones, essentially difl^ering from each other. The first, which extends from the coast to the head of tide- water, at Fredericksburgh, Richmond, &.C., over 100 miles, is low and flat, in some places fenny, in oUiers sandy, and on the margin of rivers the soil is composed of a rich loam. The second division extends from the head of tide-water to the Blue ridge. Near the former the surface is level ; higher up the streams it becomes undulating and swelling ; and, as we approach the mountain, it is often broken and abrupt. The soil is divided into sections, unequal in quality, running paral- lel to each other, and extending quite across the state. The parallel of Chesterfield, Henrico, Hanover, &c., is thin and sandy, and, except on the borders of the rivers, is unproductive. That of Goochland, Cumberland, Prince Edward, Halifax, &c., is generally fertile. Flu- vanna, Buckingham, Campbell, Pittsylvania, again, are poor ; and Culpeper, Orange, Albemarle, Bedford, &.C., are rich, though frequently consisting of a stony, broken soil, reposing on a substratum of tenacious and red-col- ored clay, ^rhe third division embraces the valley be- tween the Blue ridge and the great North Shenandoah and Branch mountain, and the Allegany chain, which, with little iuterniption, extends from the Potomac to Carolina and Tennessee. The surface of the valley in some instances is broken by sharp, solitary mountains, detached from the general chain, the flanks of which are nearly bare, or but thinly covered with stunted pines. The soil in the valley consists of a rich mould, I formed on a bed of limestone. The fourth division ex- I tends from the AUeganies to the river Ohio, and is com- posed of a eountiyVild and broken, in scpi^ parts fer- tile, but "enerally barren or poor. The Hijrface is un- even and hilly, but the soil of a great proportion of Randolph and the adjacent counties, in the northwest part of the state, is excellent, and weji adapted for grazing. Mountains. — The Allegany range, including its nu- merous ridges, covers the whole middla sections of the state. Among the local names, besides the Blue ridse, may be mentioned the Cumberliuid, Great North S6e- nandoah. Branch, Great Flat Top, Iron, and Cacapon mountains. Rivers, Lakes, and Bays. — The principal rivers are, the Potomac, James, Shenandoah, Rappaliannock, Pa- munky, Matt.ipony, York, Rivanna, Elizabeth, Appo- mattox, Nottoway, Staunton, Meherrin, Ohio, Great Ka- nawha, Sandy, Little Kanawha, Cheat, and Mononga- hela. Drummond lake lies in the Dismal swamp, which serves as a feeder to the main trunk of the Dismal- Swamp canal. The lower part of Chesapeake bay lies wholly in this state. Among the lesser bays aj-e the Pokomoke, Sinepuxent, and Mob Jack. Islands. — Along the coast there is n long chain of low, flat i:rliinds, the chief of which are. Wallop's, Matomkin, Cediir, Paramore's, Hog, Prout's, and Smith's. Climate. — The climate of the tide-water region is gen- erally hoHltliy, except in the months of August. Septem- ber, and October, during which it is hot and moist, and :bilious complaints or iutermittents prevail. As we ap- proach the Blue ridge, the inhabitants are more robust and healthy than in any other part of the state. West of the mountains, the climate is salubrious and cool. Productive Resources.— The principal products of this state are horses, mules, neat cattle, sheep, swine, poul- try, butter, cheese, wine, sugar, wax, silk, cotton, wool, hemp, flax, tobacco, rice, wheat, rye, barley, oats, buck- wheat, potatoes, and Indian com. Of tlie fossil and minei-al resources, gold, copper, iron, lead, coal, mar- ble, limestone, and salt, are the most important. But the most valuable are iron, coal, and salt The belt of country in which gold is found is in the county of Spott- sylvania, and the regions adjacent. The coal-fields are very extensive, anthracite being found on the easterly side of the AUeganies, and bituminous on the westiTn. Salt-springs occur on the banks of the Great Kanawha, where salt is manufiictured in great abundance. MaJinfacturcs. — Iron ranks first among the manufac- tures of Virginia, embracing machinery ,""firearms, hard- ware, cutlery, &c. Cotton and woollen manufactures rank next, in which about 82,500.000 is invested. In the manufiicture of tobacco shout §2.000,000 is invested. Railroads and Canals. — There are about 700 miles of railroad in opr-ration in Virginia, and more in process of construction. The most important canals in the state are, the James River and the Kanawha canal, reaching from Richmond to Lynchburg, 146 miles, and the Dismal-Swamp canal, 23 miles. Commerce. — The foreign exports and it^iports of Vir- ginia amount to about "85,000,000 annually. The do- mestic exports and imports amount to about 825,000,000 annually. The principal articles of domestic export are tobacco and flour. The shipping owned in the state is about 60,000 tons.

Government.— The legislative power is vested in a senate of 50 members, chosen for four years, one half biennially, and a house of delegates, of 152 members, chosen biennially. The executive power is vested in a governor, elected by the people, for four years, who is inelijible for the succeeding term ; and a lieutenant- governor, elected for a like telin. The legislature meets biennially, at Richmolid. A secretary of state, treas- urer, and auditor, are elected by the assembly. The judiciary power is vested in a supreme court of appeals, district courts, and circuit courts, all the judges of which are elected by the people. The right of suftrage is extended to every white male citizen twenty-one years of age, who has resided two years in the state, and one year in the place where he otiers to vote. Votes, in all elections, are viva voce; dumb persons may vote by ballot History.— The present state of Virginia embraces but a portion of the ancient " Virginia,"' as granted to Sir Walter Raleigh, in 1584, which included all the lands he should discover between the thirty-third and fortieth degrees of north latitude, and which name became final- ly restricted to what now constitutes this state. Under this charter, Raleigh planted a colony on the island of Roanoke ; but n'ter repeated trials and disastei^, the patent was vacated, and the country was again left to the quiet possession of the Indians. The first perma- nent settlement iu America, by tlie English, was made at Jamestown, in 1607, by 105' adventurers. A second charter was granted to the London company, in 1609, radically changing the constitution, and enlarging the territory of the colony along the coast, within the limits WAC 372 WAH fon : f: of th ■ ??•,:»»: rf OM P^•>!t^<^rr: ! r-rj-r •?-» f^^orr for Sn\ hKwk ins. ^ ami s>> BumN- ed to r uiuU-r Isw \v - crant! ■ with .< ally, its sv i* panv in Ejv not b:nv1-r;, t- then;'- • - ■wvre basis V of the ol" ti-t • wanr.:^ diau k bJos.: sol\>\- In Ir). at«-i!-.;, fortu! s:. .. of Captsui Jv in the colon; Croniwvll, h.i' Virsnuia wjis denV*.

C, the capital of the United Statss, is pleasantly situated on thi! east bank of the Potomac river, in latitude 38» 53' 34" north, and longi- tude 77* 1' 30" west from (Jreenwich. It is 195 iiiifes from the ocean, following the course of the river, 225 miles southwest of New York, und 1,203 miles north- east of New Orleans. The city is built on a point of land formed %y the confluence of the Potomac and the Anacostia rivere, which afford a good harbor for vessels of the largest class. Commerce, however, flows natu- rally toward Baltimore, leaving to Washington perhaps a less rapid but more quiet growth. A more beaulilul site for a city could hardly be obtained. It was selected by Washington as the fittest locality for the seat of the national government, and the city was laid out under his direction. It is said his attention was called to the advantages of this location as long previous as when he had been a youthful surveyor of the country around. Pleasant slopes, decked with elegant mansions, sur- rounded by hills and varied scenery, and the general aspect and airiness of the town, conduce to render Washington an agreeable place of re.^idence. The city is planned on a grand scale, and, if ever built up as originally designed, would be one of the flnest cities in the world. By this plan, seven spacious avenues were laid out, to diverge from the capitol as a centre, and five avenues form rays from the president's house, the latter building and the capitol being each situated on beautiful eminences, about one and a half miles apart, and connected by Pennsylvania avenue, now the prin- cipid street in the city. The avenues are named after diflen'iit states, and are crossed diagonally by streets running east and west^ named after the letters of the alphabet, and otliers running north and south, which are named after numbers. The avenues and streets hading to public places are from 120 to 160 feet wide, and the other streets are from 70 to 110 feet wide. Only a comparatively small part of its extensive site is yet covered by buildings, which, in connection with its spacious avenues, has given it the designation of the " city of magnificent dfstances." A bridge a mile long crosses the Potomac, another the Anacostia (sometimes termed the eastern branch of the Potomac), and two others, over Hock creek, connect Washington with Georgetown. On the Anacostia is a navy-yard, occu- pying an area of 27 acres. The capitol is justly regarded as one of the finest na- tional bajklings in the world. It stands on a gentle eininince, in tlie midst of a beautiful space of 23 acres, highly ornamented with trees, shrubbery, &c. Tlie dome, which is 120 feet from tlie ground, is the first object which strikes the eye from a distance. The edifice is of freestone, and, as originally built, consisted of a central part and two wings. The width of the whole building was 352 feet, and depth of the wings 121 feet, all occupying an area of one and a half acre's. But, in the addition of new states to the Union, with the consequent numerical increase of congressional rep- resentation, the capitol, on its original plan, has become too limited, and an enlargement was commenced in 1851, and is being rapidly pressed to completion. These additions will consist ot two wings at the ends of the buildings, with which they will be connected by corri- dors, or piazzas, 44 feet long and 50 feet wide. The wings will each be 143 feet by 238, exclusive of porti- coes" and steps; and the entire length of the building, when completed, will be 751 feet, and the area it covers 153,112 square feet, or over three and a half acres. Be- neath the dome is the rotunda, a spacious apartment 96 feet high, and of the same diameter. On its walls the magnificent national paintings of Trumbull, Chap- man, Wier, and Vanderlyn, are hung. The i-oom is also adorned with basso-relievo groups, representing prominent events in American history. The senate- chamber is in the north wing, and the hall of the house of representatives in that of the south. Under the sen- ate-chamber is the room where the supreme court sits. These apartments are all richly furnished, and orna- mented with statuary and paintings. The president's house is a noble and spacious edifice, also of freestone. It is 170 feet long, and 86 leet wide, with Ionic pilasters, comprehending two lofty stories, with a stone balustrade. The north front is ornament- ed with a portico, sustained by four Ionic columns, with three projecting columns, aftbrding a shelter for carriages to drive under. The garden, or southern front, is embellished by a circular colonnade of six Ionic columns. The interior of the president's house possesses one superb reception-room, commonly known as the " East room," and two oval drawing-rooms, one in each story, of very beautiful proportions. The house stands in an enclosed area of some twenty acres, and commands from its balcony one of the loveliest pros- pects in the country. Near the president's house are the buildings occupied by the state, treasury, war, and navy departments. 'I'h.' I'lurcil .-;t:it. s ircaMiryis 300 f'et long, with a wing in thiM'.ai nl liio mt.

The patent- ofiice is a spacious and noble-looking building. 'Phe models of inventions are here placi d on exhibition, and form an interesting development of the genius of our country. The erection of the Washington monument is steadily progressing, and has reached a considerable altitude. The most prominent and imposing object of this colos- sal structure will be the obelisk shaft rising through the centre to the height of 600 feet, 70 leet square at the base, and 40 at the top. The several states of the Unicm, and many associations, have each prepared a stone, bearing; an appropriate inscription, to be placed in the monument F4 -•I LEjiin_jui_>pi] CED E3 C3 n CD CZiElEriOlZ!

Wilmington, city, seat of justice, togither with New Castle, of New Castle CO., Del., situated between Christiana creek and Brandy wine river, two miles from the entrance of the latter into the Delaware, 28 miles southwest of Philadelphia, and 70 miles northeast of Baltimore. The ground on which it is built rises from the river to an elevation of 112 feet, and oflers a pleas- ant prospect of the neighboring scenery. The streets are broad and rectangular, and the houses, generally of brick, are many of them costly and beautiful. Wil- mington has the usual number of public buildings, but tlie most interesting are the flour-mills, to which it owes its celebrity. These are situated near the fulls of the Brandywine, not far from the town, and aflbrd an ex- tensive water-power. To this point, vessels ascend drawing eight feet of water, those of fourteen feet draught navigating both streams to the city. The Christiana admits vessels of eight feet draught, eight miles further up. A large number of ships anchor" at Wilmington, receiving and exporting the produce of the mills and manufactories in its vicinity ; others are employed in the whale-fishery. Each of the streams are crossed by bridges, and the Philadelphia, Wilming- ton, and Baltimore railroad communicates with tliia city. Five miles from Wilmington are the Brandywine chalybeate springs, the salubrious waters of which contribute much to the health and recreation of the visiters. The population in 1810. was 4.416; in 1820, 5,268 ; in ISIO, 6,628 ; in 1840, 8,367 ; in 1650, 13,979. WiLan.vGTON, p. 0., Fluvanna co., Va., 58 ms. n. w. of Richmond ; from W. 132 ms.

A large shoal at^the mouth of the harbor, in a great measure destroys the eti'ect of its other natural advantages. Two islands divide the river into three channels opposite the town. They afford the finest rice-fields in the state. The great body of the exports and imports of North Carolina pass through this port, and it is the terminus of the Wash- ington and Wilmington chain of railroads. The popu- lation in 1810, was about 2,000 ; in 1830, 2,700 ; in 1840, 4,744 ; in 1850, 7.264. Wilmington, c. h., p. v., seat of justice of Clinton CO., O., 72 ms. s. w. of Columbus ; from W. 445 ms.

WiscoNisco t- , Onupbin co., Pa. (Se e Wiconisco.) WISCONSIN, one of the United States, situated between 42° 30' and 47^ north lati- tude, and 87° and 92° 40' w. longitude from Gi-eenwich ; — and is bounded on the north 'ly Lake Superior; on the northeast by the peninsula of Michigan (tVom which it is sep- arated in part by Me- nomonee river) ; east by Lake Michigan; south by Iihnois ; and west by Iowa an.l Minnesota (from which it is separated in part by the Mississippi river). Its superficial area is 53,924 square miles. Physrical Aspect. — The face of the country is rather undulating, than either hilly or flat, though both ex- tremes exist The highest lands in the state are those forming the dividing ridge between the Mississippi and Lake Superior. From this ridge, toward the south and southwest, the descent is gradual, until the inclination is interrupted by another ridge, in the region of the Wisconsin and Neenah rivers, which extends across the state. From the latter ridge proceeds another gen- tle mclined plain^ down which flow the waters of Rock river and its branches into the Illinois. Along the Mis- sissippi. Wisconsin, and Helena rivers, there are numer- ous hills and bluffs, varying from 300 to 1,000 feet in height above the surface of these streams. The country bordering directly on Superior has a very precipitous descent toward the lake. From the entrance of Green bay there is another ridge of broken land, running in a southwesterly direction, more or less uninterrupted, until it passes the confines of the state. The soil is generally of great fertility, and productive of all nor- thern crops, in most situations that are not marshy or too wet. In Dane county, it is stated that the soil is composed, for the most part, of the black deposite of decayed vegetation, which for countless ages has flour- ished in wild luxuriance, and rotted upon" the surface ; of loam ; and, in a few localities, of clay mixed with sand. The deposite of vegetable mould has unilornily several inches of thickness on the tops and sides of hills ; in the valleys it is frequently a number of feet. A soil thus created, of impalpable powder, formed of the ele- ments of organic matter — "the dust of death" — we need scarcely remark, is adapted to the highest and most profitable purposes of agriculture ; yielding ciop alter crop, in rank abundance, without any ai tificial manu- ring. Rivers, Lakes, and Bays.— The chief rivers are, the Mississippi, Wisconsin, Rock, St. Louis, Montreal, Bar- aboo. Wolf, Fox or Neenah, Black, Chippewa or Ojib- wa, Cattish, and the Menomonee. The principal lakes, besides Superior and Michigan, are, Winnebago, Four Lakes, Wingra, Koshkonons, Packawa. Buffalo. Green, Little Green, Pewauirone, Great and Little Butte-des- Morts, Maquanago, Wissaua, Kaiichee, La Bt He, Nago- wicka, Oconomewoc, Nashotah (Twin Lake.-), Como, Delavan, Geneva, Deer, Sarah, Swan, Mud, Katakitte- kon, or Lac Vieux Desert. The chief bays are the Che- gowawegon and Fond du Lac, in Lake Superior, and a part of Green bay in Lake Michigan. Islands.— These are, Bartlett's, Apostles', Stocton's, and Madeline, iu Lake Superior, and Doty's island, in Fox river. Climate.— The climate of this state, notwithstanding its high northern latitude, is more favorable than that of correspondhig parallels in New England and New York. Yet its winters are severe and long, with con- tinued deep snows lor several months, and the lakes and streams are strongly locked up in ice. The harbor WIS 396 WOO of Milwaukee is usually closed from the middle to the end of November, and is opened in the spring some- times as early as the first week in March, while in other seasons it is closed as late as the middle of April. Du- ring the growing season, however, vegetation springs up as if by magic, and puts forward with astonishing rapidity and luxuriance. Spring and autumn are usu- ally mild, and are less liable to destructive frosts than the more easterly states. Productive Resources. — The chief products of this state are, horses, mules, neat cattle, sheep, swine, poul- try, butter, cheese, wax, sugar, wool, hemp, flax, wheat, rye, barley, buckwheat, oats, potatoes, and Indian corn. Of the mineral wealth, lead, copper, and iron, are found in considerable abundance, but have not, as yet, been extensively wrought. Manufactures.— This state is yet too young in years to have made much progress in manufactures. More than nine tenths of the people are engaged in agricul- ture, and a portion of the remainin^^ tenth are engaged in mining, in 1850, there were in the state 1,'J7.3 man- ufacturing establishments, which produced $500 and upward each annually. Railroads and Canals. — There are several railroads being constructed, or are already in operation, in Wis- consin. Among them are, one from Milwaukee to Ga- lena, 70 miles long, forming a junction with the Chicago and Galena Union railroad ; and the Rock River road, extending from Chicago, Illinois, to Fond du Lac, in this state. Plank-roads are also constructed here to a considerable extent, the abundance of lumber and the level surface of the country offering ready facilities for their construction. The Portage canal, connecting the Fox and Wisconsin rivers, and through them the great lakes with the Mississippi river, is an important inter- nal improvement. Commfrce.— Lying, as this state does, with two of the great inland seas for its northern and eastern bounda- ries, and the Mississippi upon its western border, Wis- consin possesses commercial facilities not exceeded by those of any other of the western states. Education. — The principal educational institutions of the higher class in this state are, the Wisconsin univer- sity, at Madison, founded in 1849, and the Beloit college, founded in 1847. There is also a theological seminary (Roman catholic) at Milwaukee. The educational re- sources of the state are extensive. The school-fund consists of the proceeds of about 2,000,000 of acres of land, five per cent, of the proceeds of all United States lands in the state, and moneys arising from several mi- nor sources. Population.— Iw 1840, 30,945; in 1850, 305,191. Government.— The legislative power is vested in an assembly, of not fewer than 54 nor more than 100 members, chosen annually ; and in a senate, number- ing not less than a third nor more than one half the members of assembly, chosen for two years, one half each year. The executive power is vested in a governor and lieutenant-governor, who are chosen by a plurality vote for two years. The judicial power is vested in a supreme court, circuit courts, and probate courts, the judges of which are all chosen by the people— supreme and circuit judges for six years, and probate judges and justices of the peace for two years. State election the Tuesday succeeding the first Monday in November. All white male citizens of the United States, or white foreigners, who have declared their intentions to be- come citizens, who have resided in the state one year, have the right of suffrage. History.— The first European settlement made within the limits of the present state of Wisconsin was by the French missionary Claude Allouez, and others, at La Pointe, on Madeline island, in the western end of Lake Superior, in 1665. This state embraces a part of the territory of Upper Louisiana, as claimed by the French, prior to 1763, when it was ceded to England, together with all their territory east of the Mississippi, under whose jurisdiction it remained until the treaty of Gren- villn, in 1795. The year following it was ceded to the United States, and in 1800 it was annexed to the "Ter- ritory northwest of the River Ohio." In 1802, Ohio was detached and formed into an independent state ; and, in 1805, a territorial govenunent was established in Michigan, under whose jurisdiction for civil purposes Wisconsin remained until 1836, when it was erected into a distinct territory. In 1847, Wisconsin, with its present boundaries, was formally admitted into the Un- ion aa a sovereign state.
