In the preparation of this Gazetteer and the Map, which has occupied nearly three years, the principal object has been to present a work as complete and comprehensive as the present state of statistical and geo- graphical knowledge would admit, within the smallest practical size. To accomplish this design, and make it eminently practical as a book oj reference, the principal places only are described in detail, and the de- scriptions are confined for the most part to matters which are permanent in their character. The great inconvenience attending large and expensive gazetteers, m a country undergoing such vast changes and improvements as ours, is, that much of the detail becomes in a very few years obsolete and use- less. The author has therefore preferred to substitute a larger number of places, and other matter of a less ephemeral nature. And the Gazetteer is offered as embracing several thousand more names than is to be found in any other single work of a similar character. Besides the usual places, all the post offices in the United States are given from the official list of the Post Master General up to the year 1837. Although intended to accompany the Map of the United States, yet the Map and Book are not necessarily connected— each being complete in itself, with the single exception of a few reference initial letters of towns and villages inserted on the map, where it was impossible conveniently to give the names in full. The whole work taken separately, or with the Map, is particularly calculated for business men, as a complete geographi- To obtain the latest information, the following letter was extensively Circulated throughout the country, particularly in the western and southwestern sections. Dear Sih, Having been engaged about two years in the preparation of a large Map of the United States, the engraving of which is nearly fin- ished, to be accompanied with a complete Reference Gazetteer;— and desirous of making them as perfect as the latest geographical knowledge of our country will admit, especially in reference to the increasing and flourishing states of the west and southwest :— I respectfully request your answer to the following questions, or either of them : 1. Have any new counties been created in your neighbourhood or 4 PREFACE. state within the last two years ?— if so, give the names, boundaries, and population. 2. What new towns, or tovmships — their situation, &c. 1 3. What new villages — their situation, population, and distances from other neighboring villages? 4. What canals and railroads, or other internal improvements, have been projected or completed within the same period — with the places connected thereby 1 5. What new public or stage road has been established ? — and please state, generally, such other information as may be interesting, concern- ing your section of the country. Reasonable compensation, to be agreed upon, will be cheerfully given for manuscript and other original documents and surveys, that may con tribute to the perfection of the Map and Gazetteer. Very respectfully yours, &c., William Chapin. This circular elicited many answers from gentlemen of intelligence in various sections of the country, with much local information in man- uscript and otherwise, for which the author owes many obligations. It is not expected that this work is free from errors. It would be im- possible from its difficult and complicated nature to be perfect. But no labor nor expense has been spared to make it as correct and acceptable to the public as possible. New York, June, 1838. GENERAL VIEW OF THE UNITED STATES. As many of the principal details will be presented in the descriptions of the seve- ral states, in their appropriate places, it is not thought necessary to give them here. This article will therefore be confined to a more general view of the United tetates and the territories, and to such particulars as cannot be so well embraced in any other place. BOUNDARIES AND EXTENT. The territory of the United States is bounded on the N. by the British and Rus- sian possessions; on the E. by N. Brunswick and the Atlantic Ocean; on the S. by the Gulf of Mexico; and on the W. by the Pacific Ocean. Its general length E. and W. is 3000 miles ; its breadth N. and S., from the Lake of the Woods to the S. point of Florida, is 1700 miles. Commencing at Passamaquoddy Bay, and tra- cing the whole outline of the U. S., we have the following result :— Miles. Prom Passamaquoddy Bay to the S. end of Florida 1900 From the S. end of Florida to the mouth of Sabine river 1300 From the mouth of the Sabine along the southern boundary to the Pacific Ocean 2500 Along the Pacific coast to the N. W. corner 900 From the N. W. corner, along the northern boundary to Passama- quoddy Bay 3600 Entire outline 10,200 miles. HISTORY. The settlenient and early history of each state are given in their respective places. The first settlement by the English was in 1607. From that period to 1775, the col- onies were under the government of Great Britain. On the 4th of July, 1776, the American Congress at Philadelphia, composed of the Delegates from the 13 original states, declared their Independence. These states united under articles of Confed- eration in Nov. 15, 1777, and continued under them through the struggle of the Revolution, and until the year 1787, when the present Constitution (since amended) was adopted. The 13 states which adopted the Constitution were New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, New .Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, N. Carolina, S. Carolina, and Georgia. The original cause of the disaffection of the colonies towards Great Britain was her attempt to tax them without their consent or representation in the British Parlia- ment. The effects were more openly manifested, on the imposition of the Stamp Act in 1765, and in the duty on tea. The Colonists determined to resist the importa- tion of teas under this duty. Accordingly, a number of persons collected together, and proceeded to some sliips that lay at the Boston wharves, and threw their car- goes of tea overboard. The British ministry determined to punish this aggression by shutting up the port of Boston, and garrisoning the town with troops. The exasperation of the people on this intelligence led to a Congress of delegates of the Colonies, who assembled in Phlladcljihia to consider tjie best means of redress. At this momentous period the battle of Lexington was fought between the British troops and the undisciplined and half-armed inhabitants, near Boston. This was the first blood that was spilt— and tlie effect throughout the country was electric. It was a signal for a general burst of indignation, and a determination to resist. The war of the Revolution followed, which gave birth to a nation, and established 1* 6 GENERAL VIEW OF THE those principles of civil and religious liberty which elevate man to the just standard' of his natural rights. After a long and arduous struggle, in which every privation, hardship, and sacrifice, was endured by the American armies and people, and the wisdom, fortitude, and perseverance of Washington were so signally exemplified ; — the surrender of Cornwallis at Yorktown, Virgmia, in 1781, put an end to the war. In 1783, a treaty of peace was signed, by which Great Britain acknowledged the Independence of the United States. SURFACE AND CLIMATE. The vast territory of the U. States presents a great variety of surface, with two great ranges of mountains stretching generally in a northeasterly and southwesterly direction, and dividing the country into three unequal divisions. The Rocky Moun- tains are the highest, and connect with the Cordilleras Range of Mexico; commen- cing at the Isthmus of Darien, and reaching to the Arctic Ocean, a distance of 5000 miles. The other principal range is the Appalachian, including the Alleghany Mountains, which reaches along the Atlantic states about 1800 miles. The lesser i-anges are the Green, Ozark, and White Mountains. There is a great diversity in the climate, from the exti-eme cold of the northern winters to the bland and mild perpetual summers of the south. There are also great and sudden changes in the temperature of the weather. The climate has much im- pi-oved since the early settlement of tlie country, and will probably undergo still further changes for the belter. But it is generally healthy, except in some of the southern states in the summer months. SOIL AND PRODUCTIONS. While the country presents the greatest variety of soil, it abounds in vast tracts of inexhaustible fertility, particularly in the south and west. The Atlantic border, and the N. England states generally, are in a high state of cultivation, but are less productive in grain than the country west of the Alleghanies. More particular de- scriptions of the soil are given under the heads of the respective states. The productions of the country are almost as various as the soil. The great sta- ples are cotton, wlieat, rye, Indian corn, sugar, rice, tobacco, and wool. All kinds of vegetables, and nearly every description of fruits, are produced in the greatest abundance. There is perhaps no country in the world so bountifully blessed by the Creator with the necessaries of life, and the means of universal happiness. LAKES, RIVERS, BAYS, &c. The principal lakes are Superior, Huron, Michigan, Erie, Ontario, St. Clair, and Champlain. The principal rivers are the Mississippi, Missouri, Arkansas, Columbia or Ore- gon, Red, Kanzas, Lewis, Clark, Yellow Stone, Canadian, Ohio, Tennessee, Ala- bama, Appalachicola, Connecticut, Des Moines, Cumberland, James, Gt. Pedee, Illinois, Multomah, Mobile, Susquehannah, Platte, Wabasli, St. Peters, Washita, White, Tombigbee, Big Horn, St. Johns, Sabine, Roanoke, Potomac, Penobscot, Pearl, Osage, Kentucky, Hudson, Wisconsin, Green, Gt. Kannawha, Delaware, Coosa, Chattahooche, Cape Fear, Alleghany, and Altamaha. The principal bays are the Chesapeake, Delaware, New York, Massachusetts, Cape Cod, Narragansett, Penobscot, Passamaquoddy, Buzzards, Mobile, Pensacola, Tampa, and Appalachicola. The principal sounds are Long Island, Albemarle, and Pamlico. The most prominent capes are Cape Ann, Cod, May, Henlopen, Charles, Henry, Hatteras, Look Out, Fear, Canaveral, Florida, Sable, St. Bias, Sandy Hook, and Montauk Pt, MINERALS. Gold is found in N. Carolina, S. Carolina, Virginia, and Georgia. Iron abounds in nearly every state in the Union. Extensive coal beds are found abundantly in several states, but are worked chiefly in Pennsylvania. Lead is found in great abun- dance; the greatest supply of which is received from the mines of Missouri. Salt springs and lakes abound in various parts of the U. States. Those in N. York produce annually a large supply of salt. UNITED STATES. S. Carolina produced lbs. 65,500,000 Louisiana " 62,000,000 Tennessee " 45,000,000 AGRICULTURE. Ot* *»a great staples, already mentioned, cotton holds a distinguished place. In 1789, but one million pounds of cotton were raised in the U. States. In 1800 1-bs. 35,000,000 In 18-35, lbs. 255,000,000 1810' 85,000,000 1830, 350,000,000 1815* 100,000,000 1834, 460,000,000 1820| 160,000,000 1835, 486,0i0,000 Of the amount raised in 1834 — Alabama produced lbs. 85,000,000 Mississippi " 85,000,000 Georgia " 75,000,000 The following is a list of the prices of flour for a number of years: — In 1796, flour was $Vi 00 per barrel ; 1803, $6 50 ; 1808, (embargo,) $6 00 ; 1812, (war,) S12 50 ; 1816, (close of the war,) $9 00 ; 1817, S13 50; 1821, m 00; 1828, $5 00 ; 1832, $5 50 ; 1835, $4 87 ; 1836, $6 50 ; 1837, $11 00 ; 1838, $1 To. MANUFACTURES. The value of manufactures of the U. States, in 1810, was estimated at $172,762, 876. In 1836, the value is estimated at $600,000,000. In Massachusetts alone at $100,000,000. The great depression of the times has materially diminished this amount for the year 1837. Two thirds of the clothing worn by the agricultural population in the Eastern, Middle, and Western States, are the products of domestic manufacture. The greatest amount of any single manufacture is from cotton, which reached in 1835 to near 100 millions of pounds ; — valued at 48 millions of dollars. 85 millions of dollars are invested in cotton manufactures — and it is estimated that the capital vested in all the manufactories of the U. States is about 1000 millions of dollars. COMMERCE. The commerce of the U. States is second only to that of Great Britain. The fol- lowing table of the value of imports and exports for several periods, exhibits the increase since 1790. Years. Imports. E-icports. Years.

The exports for 1837, amounted to $ llt;,906,060, of which $95,183,199 were domestic, and $21,722,861 foreign goods. The exports were less than the preceding year, by $11,733,481 domestic, and $23,499 foreign. The total amount of American tonnage in 1836, was 1,369,580 — of which 404,814 belonged to N. York; 226,779 to Boston; 91,905 to Philadelphia; 81,710 to N. Or- leans^ 81,252 to N. Bedford ; and 62,365 to Baltimore. FISHERIES. Nearly all the fisheries are carried on from the N. England states. The most im- portant are the cod fishery, whale, mackeral, and herring. The value of fish, oil, and sperm candles, exported for the year ending Sept. 30, 1836, was $2,666,058. GENERAL VIEW OF THE PUBLIC LANDS. These land? consist of territory that belonged to the U. States at the time of their independence, of tracts ceded to the General Government by the several states, and of lands acquired by treaty or purchase. A large quantity of this land is occupied by Indians, who are considered the proprietors until their title is extinguished by purchase. Much difficulty existed after the Revolution in adjusting the various conflicting claims of several of the states to the large region of territory lying west and northwest of Ohio river. They were finally settled, however, by the states of N. York, Virginia, Massachusetts, and Connecticut, ceding their claims to the Gen- eral Government. Connecticut retained a portion of the territory (called the Con- necticut Reserve, now belonging to Ohio) until 1800, from which was laid the foundation of her School Fund. Out of the above territory, the states of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, and tlie Ter. of Wisconsin were formed. S. Carolina relinquished her claims in 1787; N. Carolina, in 1189, to the territory now forming the state of Tennessee ; and finally, in 180"2, Georgia ceded to the General Government the region now forming the states of Alabama and Mississppi. The vast tract west of the Mississippi, and extending to the Pacific Ocean, comprehended under the name of Louisiana, was purchased of France, in 1803, for 15,000,000 dollars ; and Florida, of Spain, in 1819. In 1800, Congress passed an act to provide for the survey and sale of the public lands, which was the foundation of the present system. In 1812, the Land Office was established. Surveys are made by contract, under the direction of the General Land Office, through the Surveyor General. The public sales of land are made by auction ; but large quantities are sold by private entry. Settlers who have already occupied land without a legal title, are entitled to a pre-enijition right of purchase. The public lands are divided into Districts, in each of which is a Land Office, under the superintendence of a Register of tlie Land Office, and a Receiver of Pub- lic Monies. The surveys are based upon a series of true meridians, and all the surveys are made to correspond with these lines. The land is divided into townships^ 6 miles square, and these into 3G sections, of one squai-e mile each, or G40 acres. These sec- tions are subdivided into quarter sections, of IGO acres each, and half-quarter sec- tions, of 80 acres each. Previous to 1820, tiie sales were on credit, and the minimum price was S2 00 per acre. But the speculations and difficulties arising from credit sales, induced Congress in that year to pass an act, establishing all sales to be made for cash, and reducing the minimum price of the land to ^1 2.5 per acre, at which it still remains. As stated in the article Edncatioji, one section of (MO acres in each township is reserved for the support of commori schools. Five per cent, also of the sales is re- served, ihree-fifths of which are to be expended by Congress in making roads in the state where the land is located, and the other two-fifths for the encouragement of learning. The total quantity of public lands surveyed up to Sept. 1, 1835, was 166,897,082 acres ; the wholr,. quantity sold was 41,199,()-20 acres ; the nett payments into the treasury (after deducting expenses) S5H,(J1 9,523. The following table exhibits the lands sold at certain periods, their annual aver- age, and tiie nett receipts into the treasury therefrom. In 10 years, from 1820 to 1830, In 4 " " 1830 to 1834, In the year 1835, In 1830, the sales amounted to the extraordinary sum of $24,000,000; and in 1837 they had fallen to $7,001,538. The population of the new states and territories, formed out of tl>e public do- main, increased from 1800 to 1830, from less than 60,000 to more than 2,300,000, and since the latter period to 3,500,000 : embracing nine states — furnishing one third of the U.

States in regard to foreign powers, and the genius and economy of her republican institutions, it has not been thought ne- cessary, nor politic, to sustain a large standing army. According to official re- ports the regular army, on the 30lh Nov., 1836, amounted to 7,958, organized as follows: General Staff 14 Medical Department 76 Pay department 18 Purchasing Department 3 Corps of Engineers 22 Topographical Department 10 Ordnance Department 308 Two Regiments of Dragoons 1,498 Four Regiments of Artillery 2,180 Seven Regiments of Infantry 3,829 Total 7,958. There are two great Military Divisions, divided by a line commencing at the mouth of the Mississippi, following up that river to Cassville, in Wisconsin Ter- ritory, thence north to the boundary line between the U. States and Canada. All west of that line is called the Western Division ; and all east of it, the Eastern Di- vision, The total number of militia in the U. States, as given in an official report, dated Nov., 1836, is 1,326, 821. The militia comprises all able bodied white males be- tween the ages of 18 and 45; and when called into actual service, they receive the same pay as the army. NAVY. The American navy, though small in point of numbers, is formidable in its power, ./ind very efficient in its organization and disci^iline. It consisted in 1837, finished and on the stocks, of 11 ships of 74* guns. 2 ships of 24 guns. 1 do. 64 « 14 do. 44 " 2 do. 36 " Total 49 And several smaller vessels. The navy contains 50 Captains; 48 Masters Commandant ; 296 Lieutenants; 50 Surgeons; 14 Passed Assistant Surgeons ; 43 Assistant Surgeons ; 41 Pursers ; 9 Chaplains; 198 Passed Midshipmen; 256 Midshipmen; 27 Sailing Masters; 19 Boatswains; 20 Gunners; 19 Carpenters ; 19 Sail Makers. POST OFFICE. The first Post in the U. States was established in New York in 1710. In 1789, at the adoption of the Federal Constitution, the whole management of the Posts was conferred on Congress. There were then only 75 post offices in the U. States —there are now (1838) about 12,.300. The following table will exhibit the extraordinary increa ■• of this dep■•rtm^l:^ and also the rapid growth of the country. • Rated at 74, but mounting between 84 and 100. 2 ships of 24 3 do. 18 6 do. 12 tJNTTKD STATES. 11 Number Amount Years. ofOffices. of Postage. 1790 75 S37,935 1795 453 160,600 1800 903 280,804 1810 2,300 551,684 1815 3,000 1,043,065 1820 4,500 1,111,927 P2,140 117,893 213,994 495,969 748.121 1,160,926 1825 1830 1834 1835 1836 1837 5,077 8,450 10,387 10,770 11,091 11,770 Expendi- v<.ar« Number i Amount brpenoi- tures.

States, free of postage, under such regulations as the Postmaster General may provide. Any person who shall counterfeit the handwriting or frank of any person, or cause the same to be done, in order to avoid the payment of postage, shall for each offence pay five hundred dollars. RELIGION. The Constitution of the U. States declares that Congress shall make no lawre- speaing an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof. The 'Jg GENERAL VIEW OF THE same principle prevails in the several states. The support of religion is entirely voluntary throughout the U. States. And its happy tendency, so consistent with the mild spirit of the gospel, is everywhere manifest. A provision existed in Mas- sachusetts, by which the Legislature might require the towns to support the Protest- ant religion. But this was done away in 1833. Nor is it possible that any church and state establishment can ever be formed in the U. States: for if the improbable desire for such a union should ever arise in any one denomination, there would be at leasi two thirds, comprehending all other denominations, united to oppose it ; — without including a large portion of the community not connected with any sect. But while every individual is left entirely free in the choice of his religion, or in its support, and the law no where enjoins it as an obligation, it is a happy evi- dence of the prevailing public sentiment, that the Constitutions of the several states recognize the moral obligations and duties of the Christian religion, and extend their protection over its full enjoyment and exercise. The following summary exhibits in round numbers, dropping fractions, the num- ber of churches, ministers, and communicants, in the U. States in 1836. Churches or Societies, 21,670; ministers, 16,000; communicants, 2,200,000. Of these there were Methodists, including all kinds, . Baptists, do. do Presbyterians, do. do Congregationalists, Dutch Reformed, Episcopalians, German Reformed, Lutherans, Christians, Friends, Uni versalists, Unitarians Catholics, Societies. Ministers.

There are esti- mated to be over 700,000 Catholics in the United States, who increase principally by emigration from foreign countries. The proportion of the Catholic to the Protestant population is as 07i,e to eighteen. EDUCATION. The general diffusion of knowledge has always been considered of great import- ance in a popular government. The U. States present an example of a free people acting upon the principle, with slight exceptions, of universal suffrage. Every white male citizen above 21 years of age, in most of the states, has a voice in the choice of his rulers; which implies that every such citizen should be capable, to a reasonable extent, of exercising that right with judgment and discretion. This cannot be expected without a proper attention to the education of the u'kole mass of the people. Nor can any republican institutions be safe without it. The subject of popular education, therefore, has early received the favorable at- tention of several of the states, particularly the N. England states and N. York ; and now this attention is becoming more general and decided. Other states are awakening up to its importance. Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Michigan, have estab- lished excellent systems ; and the gratifying prospect is presented, that in a short time every state in the Union will have an effiicient comnioyi school system, which ■will embrace all the children of the land, under a course of good sound education. The General Government of the U. States does nothing in aid of public instruc- tion, except to reserve for that purpose one section of the public land in every town- ship, being i part, or one mile square, — and also certain reservations for colleges. These appropriations for common schools have already amounted to near nine mil- lions of acres ; and for colleges and academies to near five hundred thousand acres. , To the states, respectively, belong the duty of providing in a special manner for the ■ education of the young ; and these particular efforts will be noticed under the heads cf the individual states.

The Catholic ecclesiastical seminaries contain 84 students. The whole number of Catholic colleges is thirteen. In eight of these (the number organized in 1837) Ir^wei^'i^is^^^^^^ students 995; volumes in libraries 50,000 ; whole num- ''^Ti4it^air26^medical schools in the U.

States, in 1886, by Mr. Preston of S C, on the expediency of purchasing the library of the late Count Boutourlin at Florence for the library of Congress,-it is stated that all the libraries in the U. b ates amount to about 400,000 volumes: of these there are 50,000 distinct works. Other, and more recent authorities, founded upon particular examinations, give the num- ber as between 700,000 and 800,000 volumes, which is probably correct. After the destruction of the library of Congress by the British in August, 1»14, Government purchased Mr. Jefferson's library, consisting of 6,484 volumes tor S23 950. Since which, additional sums have been appropriated, making a total, since 1814 of S99 950. The whole number of volumes in the library is 24,t)UU. Of the other public libraries in the U. States, the following are the largest: Philadelphia 44,000 vols. I Boston Atheneum, 29,000 vols. Cambridge University, 42,000 ] New York City, 25,000 Amono- other respectable libraries, the following deserve particular notice: Charleston, S. C. ; Andover Theol. Sem. ; Antiquarian Society, Worcester; N, York Mercantile ; N. York Apprentices ; Baltimore and Georgetown College; aver- aging about 12,000 volumes each. , . , , ., Althouo-h the libraries of the U. States are small compared with the magnihcent collections in Europe, which amount to an aggregate of 19,850.000 volumes— (the Paris Royal containing 700,000 ; Munich, 556,000; London, 2-14,000 volumes,)— yet when the age of the country is considered, and that libraries ale always of slow growth, their number and extent are certainly respectable. GOVERNMENT. The Government of the U. States is that of a confederated republic, in which all power belongs to the people. The legislative power is vested in a Congress, com- posed of a Senate and House of Representatives. The Senate consists of two mem- bers from each state, chosen by the legislatures, respectively, for a period of six years. The terms of service are so arranged, that one third of the whole Senate is renewed every two years. . . Every Senator must be at least 30 years of age, and have been 9 years a citizen. The present number of Senators is 52, 14 GENERAL VIEW OF THE The Senate has the sole power to try impeachments. The Vice President is President of the Senate, and has a casting vote only. The House of Representatives is composed of members elected in the several states by the peopla, for a term of two years. Each state is entitled, under a laW passed in 1832, to send one Representative for every 47,700 inhabitants. Tho present number of members is 242, and two Delegates — one from Wisconsin, and one from Florida territory. Every Representative must be at least 25 years of age, and have been 7 years a citizen. The pay of each member of Congress, during the session, is $8 per day, and $9 for every 20 miles' travel, to and from the seat of government. The compensation of the President of the Senate, pro tern., who is chosen in the absence of the Vice President, and of the Speaker of the House of Representatives, is S16 a day. All bills for raising revenue must originate in the House of Representatives. No member of Congress can hold any office under the U. States at the same time. Congress have power to Idy and collect taxes — provide for the common defence and general welfare — bon'ow money — regulate commerce with foreign nations, among the states, and with the Indian tribes — to establish uniform laws on natu- ralization and bankruptcies — to coin money, regulate its value, and fix the standard of weights and measures — to establish post offices and post roads — to grant patent and copy-rights — to constitute tribunals inferior to the Supreme Court — to define and punish piracies and offences on the high seas, and against the law of nations to declare war — grant letters of marque and reprisal — to raise and support armies — provide and maintain a navy — to provide for calling forth the militia to execute the laws of the Union, suppress insurrections, and repel invasions — to provide for organizing, arming, and disciplining the militia (the states appointing the officers thereof) — to exercise exclusive legislation over the District of Columbia, forts, mag- azines, dock yards, &c., and to make all laws necessary and proper for carrying into execution the powers vested by the constitution in the Government of the U. States, or in any department thereof. The Executive power is vested in a President, who is chosen for four years, by electors from from the different states, equal in number to the Senators and Repre- sentatives from each state. He must be a native citizen of the U. states, and not under 35 years of age. He is a commander and chief of the army and navy, and of the militia, when in actual service. His compensation is S"^5,000 a year. In case of his death, resignation, or inability to act, the Vice President acts as President. The President makes all treaties, with the concurrence of two thirds of the Sen- ate ; and appoints, with the consent of the Senate, ambassadors, judges of the Su- preme Court, and other officers, not otherwise appointed by law. He is eligible for re-election, but the example of Washington in retiring to private life after a second term, has established a precedent which has not since been departed from. The Presi- dent has a Cabinet, consisting of the heads of the different departments, viz., the Sec- retary of State, Treasury, War, Navy, Postmaster General, and Attorney General. The judicial power of the U. States is vested in a Supreme Court, composed of a Chief justice and six associates, which holds its session annnally at Washington city, and a District Court in each state. There are also seven judicial Circuits, in each of which a Circuit Court is held twice a year for each state in the Circuit, by a Justice of the Supreme Court, and by a District Judge. The judges hold their offices during good behaviour. The Supreme Court has original jurisdiction in all cases relating to ambassadors and consuls — and appellate jurisdiction in all cases arising' under the Constitution of the U. States — in all ad- miralty cases — in controversies between two states — two citizens of different states — and between a state, or its citizens, and a foreign state or its subjects. The state governments (2G in number) are founded upon the same general prin- ciples of popular rights that are adopted in the Constitution of the U. States. Each state has guaranteed to it a republican form of government, and the state constitu- tions do not essentially differ in their forms from that of the Federal Government. Each state is independent, and has exclusive legislation on all subjects not dele- gated to the General Government. Its whole domestic and local policy is, there- fore, by this admirable system, brought immediately under the control of its own citizens, through their representatives. The legislature of every state is now composed of two branches, Vermont hav- ing in 1836 established a Senate. UNITED STATES. 15 In 8 states, Senators are elected for 1 year; in 4 states, for 2 years ; in 3 states, for 3 years ; in 10 states, for four years ; and 1 state, (Maryland,) for 5 years. In 9 states. Representatives are elected for 2 years ; in all others, except Rhode Island, wliich elects semi-annually, they are elected annnally. Eight states elect their Governors for 1 year ; nine states, for 2 years ; four states, for 3 years ; and five, for 4 years. The Governors of the territories of Florida and Wisconsin are appointed by the President of the U. States and Senate. In all states, except N. Jersey, Maryland, Virginia, and S. Carolina, the Gov- ernor is elected by the people. In Louisiana, the legislature chooses one from the two highest candidates voted for by tiie people. Further details of the state governments are given in the descriotion of the par- ticular states, in their proper places. POPULATION. The unexampled increase of population in the U. States, since the period of its independence, is a decisive evidence of its growing and substantial prosperity. The first actual cwimeration of the inhabitants was rnade in 1790.

Alabama was organized as a Territo- rial government in 1817, and admitted into the Union as a state in 1820. The principal rivers are the Alabama, Cahawba, Choctaw, Conecuh, Coosa, Black Warrior, Tombigbee, Tallapoosa, Chattahoochee, Perdido and Mobile. Cotton is the great staple, but wheat, corn, rice, &c. are cultivated. The climate in the uplands is healthy and the summers pleasant. But on the lowlands and the neighborhood of the rivers it is unhealthy. About half of the surface of the state is composed of Pine Barrens which are thinly covered with trees and produce a coarse grass. This soil which is a red- dish clay, is favorable to the growth of wheat. In the north parts of the state the soil is generally very good. In the south much of it is low and swampy and the soil thin. The principal town is Mobile, the other towns of the greatest importance are Blakely, St. Stephens, and Tuscaloosa, the capital of the state. The state has two colleges, the Univer- sity of Alabama, and La Grange College. There are also about 30 incorporated academies. Tlie N. part of Alabama was formerly included in Georgia, which was pur- chased by the U. S. and formed part of the Mississippi Territoiy. The Senate consists of 30 members elected for 3 years. The H. of Represent- atives of 91 members elected annually. Pay of the members $^4,00 per day. The principal internal improvements in this state recently finished, in progress or projected, are the Montgomery and ChaUa'hooche R; R. 76 m. long. Tiiscum- bia and Decatur R. R. 46 m. Florida, AlahavM and Georgia R. R. 110 m. to connect Columbus in Georgia with Pcn- sacola, Florida, through Alabama. Dale- town and Greensborough R. R. 17 m. Mobile and Tennessee R. R.

ALABAMA R. is formed by the Coosa and Tallapoosa and receives as a tributary the Cahawba from the north. Coosa the main constituent of the Alaba- ma, rises in Tennessee. The course of the Alabama from its union with tha ALB 19 ALE Coosa and Tallapoosa until it joins the Tombigbee to form the Mobile, is 240 m. long, but its comparative distance is 130 m. ALABAMA, t.

The Erie canal terminates here after uniting with the Champlain canal, and has great- ly added to the wealth and commercial importance of the place. Many steam- boats, sloops and canal boats are con- stantly employed during navigation in conveying freight and passengers to and from N. Y. and the canals. Albany was settled by the Dutch in 1614, and is one of llie oldest settlements in the U. S. Its population in 1790, was 3,506; 1810, 10,744 ; 1820, 12,541 ; 1830, 24,238 ; 1835, 28,109. Its public buildings and many of the churches are very Ijeautiful, giving evidence of the taste and enterprise of the inhabitants. The Capitol is a substantial building standing on an elevation 130 feet above the river, it is 115 feet long by 90 broad. Among other jiuhlic buildings the most conspicuous and elegant are the Academy, the City Hall, the Sfutc Hall, Albaiiy Female Academy and Stanvix Hall.

Length from N. to S. 245 m. mean breadth 213 ; area about 52,185 m. Pop. 1833, 40,370; 1835, .58,134, of which about 6,000 are slaves, Arkansas was settled in 1685 ; orga- nized into a Territorial government in 1819 ; and admitted as a state into the Union in 1836. Arkansas is the principal river, the other important rivers are the White, Red, Washita, Cache, and St. Fra7icis. The eastern part of the state is level which gradually varies to the west- ward, v/here the Black or Ozark Moun- tains pass through the state. The soil is fertile, and produces cotton, wheat, tobac- co, &c., with rich and extensive prairies. Iron, lead and coal are found, and abun- dance of salt. The shores of the Arkansas r. to Little Rock, are considered unhealthy. The level sections of the country are wet and not easily drained. But the great prairie and the smaller prairies in the upper parts of the country are more healthy. The Legislature meets every two years, and is composed of a Senate of 17 mem- bers, and a H. of Representatives of 54 members. ARKANSAS County, Ark. on Ar- kansas r. Pop. 1830, 1,426 ; 1835, 2,080.

O. an important commercial city and c. t. It was first laid out in 1789, but took its rise after the defeat of the Indians by AVayne, in 1794. It is situated on the N. bank of the Ohio r. on a level plat of ground. The streets cross each other at right an- gles, and are well regulated. This city has been justly styled the " Glueen of the CIT t West." It is not more distinguished for the enterprise and munificence of its inha- bitants, than for tlieir noble spirit in pro- moting; the cause of learning and primary education. Besides several respectable colleges, institutes, lyceums, &c. the large and commodious buildings erected for common school instruction reflect the high- est credit upon the public spirit and bene- ficence of the inhabitants. Many of the public buildings are very beautiful ; among which the new edifice for the Franklin and Lafayette Banks, of the Grecian Doric order, resembling the United States Bank at Philadelphia, stands conspicuous. The spacious Court House and United States Branch Bank building deserve also to be noticed. There are also many fine churches, 4 market houses, col- lege and literary buildings, and several elegant hotels. The commercial and manufacturing im- portance of this place is very great. The exports for 1832 were estimated atS4,000,- 000, and for 1836 at S'5,000,000. A large number of steam engines are in operation, in cotton and various other manufactories. Various rail-roads, canals, and turnpike roads, projected or in a course of construc- tion, are expected to add still greater fa- cilities of trade and wealth to this flour- ishing emporium. The following account of its population at different periods marks its rapid histo- ry. Pop. in 1800, 750; 18-JO, 10,000; 18-24, 12,016; 1826, 16,230; 1830,24,831; in 1838, estimated at 38,000.

OONBTECTICUTjoneofthe United States, is bounded N. lay Massa- chusetts ; E. by Rhode Island ; S. by Long Island Sound; and W. by New York. Its mean length from E. to W, is about 88 m. Its mean breadth from N. to S. 58 m. containing about 5,100 square m. It has several ranges of mountains, which, however, are not of much eleva- tion. The general face of the country is varied by moderate undalations of hill and valley. The valleys generally are very rich. The E. part of the state par- ticularly, contains strong and rich soil — the NW. portion is indifferent. The cli- mate is remarkably healthy. The principal rivers are the Connecti- cut, the Housatonic, and the Thames. The principal cities and villages are Hartford, and New Haven, the two state capitals, — New London, Middletown, Norwich, Wethersfield, and Windsor. The chief agricultural productions are corn, wheat, rye, oats, barley, buckwheat, &c. There are fine meadows and pasture land, on which many sheep and other stock are raised. Silk is also raised in considerable quantities. There are many manufactories of cot- ton, paper, leather, iron, &c. in a flourish- ing condition, and there is a considerable coasting trade with New York, Boston, and elsewhere. There are two colleges in the state — CON 71 COO Yale College at New Haven, which is the oldest in the United States, founded in 1701— and Washington College, at Hart- ford, founded in 1826. The Asylum for the Deaf and Dumb at Hartford was the first of the kind established in the United States. The number of manufactories in 1830, was 1,212 ; mills, 1,597 ; dwelling houses, 41,416; cattle, 219,800; sheep, 331,054; acres of land, 2,607,869. A common school system is established, and extending a good influence over thou- sands of children ; but here, as in other states, the people too much overlook the great claims of these primary schools. The school fund is about $2,000,000. Internal improvements completed and in progress, are as follows: The New York, Providence t^ Boston Rail Road, extending from Stonington to Providence, R. I. 47 m. ; and the Worcester cf- Nor- wich Rail Road, 48 m. ; and the Hartford . 1830, 1(5,030. CRAWFORD, p. o. Estill co. Ky. CK.IWFORD County, near the cen- tral part of Ga. on Flint r.

Pop. 1830, 33,024. Delhi, c. t. DELAWARE R. a large and impor- tant r. rises in the state of New York, Schoharie co. in the Cattskill Mountains, forms part of the boundary between N. ) DEL Y, and Pa. and between Pa, and N. J, and flows into Delaware Bay. It is about 300 m. long, and navigable for the largest vessels to Philadelphia, and for steam boats to Trenton Falls, 35 m. further. DELAWARE Bay, between the states of Delaware and New Jersey, near 20 m. wide at its mouth, from Cape May to Cape Henlopen. Within the latter cape, a breakwater is constructed, forming a safe artificial harbor for vessels in stormy weather. DSItA'WARE, one of the United States, bounded N. by Pennsyl- vania ; E. by Delaware r. and Bay, and the Atlantic ; and S. and W. by Mary- land. It is 93 m. long — mean breadth 22 m. Area, 2,110 square m. or about 1,350,- 000 acres. The general surface of the country is level. The soil is a rich clay in the nor- thern parts of the state, and along the Dela- ware r. but in the extreme N. it is stony, and becomes sandy on the sea coast. The climate is mild and healthy. Wheat is the principal production, from which very beautiful white flour is pro- duced. Corn, rye, barley, and flax are also raised in considerable quantities. There are several important manufac- tories of cotton, wool, paper, and gun- powder in the neighborhood of Wilming- ton, and some of the largest grist mills in the country. The principal towns are Wilmington, Dover, the state capital, and Newcastle. The principal rivers are the Brandy- wine and Christiana crs. which unite and fall into the Delaware below Wilming- ton. The state is divided into three counties, which are subdivided into 24 hundreds. Delaware has no college, but some very respectable private academies, and a sys- tem of common schools, supported by the interest of a fund, and a tax of equal amount raised in the school districts. The state was first settled at Fort Chris- tiana, on the creek of that name, by the Swedes and Finns in 1627. In lt)55 the colony was taken by the Dutch of New York ; and after the conquest of New York by the English, in 1664, it was an- nexed to that colony. In 1682, it was granted, with Pennsylvania, to William Penn. The colonies were separated in 1701, but remained under one governor until 1776, when Delaware adopted a new constitution.

A letter from an officer in the Florida army thus writes of this comparatively unknown region: "At this season, (dated Fort Brooke, December, 1837,) the appearance of the everglades is like that of a bound- less field of wheat in the hai-vest season. A species of grass, about five feet in height, covers the earth, and extends be- low the horizon. The country is perfect- ly level ; and the winds, which are al- ways blowing, wave the grass like a troubled sea. Near Fort Gardiner, which is seventy miles due east from here, there are strips of hammock land, and when the surface rises a little, of pine barren ; but the Indians state, that in the lower part of the country the prairie land stretches to the horizon all around you, except here and there a few spots of wood called Islands. It is the general impres- sion that these everglades are uninhabit able during the summer months, by rea son of their being overflowed by the abun- dant rains of that season ; but if it should prove that these inundations are caused or increased by obstructions to the natural courses of the rivers, as outlets to the nu merous lakes, American industry will re- move these obstructions."

Territory of the United States, bounded N. by Georgia and Alabama, E. by the Atlan- tic, W. and S, by the Gulf of Mexico and part of Alabama. It is usually divided, in describing it, into East and West Flori- da. Length, 3<)0 m. — breadtii, 150 m. The surface of the country generally is flat, and a great portion of tlie soil in the peninsula is wet, swampy and unfit for cultivation. In other parts there is a rich, produc- tive soil, and many excellent forests of live oak and other timber. The climate is hot and unhealthy, ex- cept between the months of October and June, when it is very pleasant and healthy. Florida was discovered by Ponce de Leon, a Spaniard, in 1512, and settled by the Spaniards in 1524, who were long and obstinately opposed by the native Indians. Tiie country was subdued by De Soto, in 1539. In 1763, it was ceded by Spain to Great Britain, in exchange for Havanna. The Spaniards re-conquered it in 1781, since which they held it until it was ceded by Spain to the United States, in 1821. Florida has been remarkable since that period for two wars with the Seminoles. The first broke out in 1818, and was soon brought to a close by Gen. Jackson. The second war has been more obstinate and bloody. Tallahassee, in W. Florida, is the seat of government. The other principal towns are St. Augustine and Pensacola. The principal rivers are the St. Mary's, St. John's, the Suwanee, the Apalachi- cola and the Withlacouchee. Pop. 1830, 34,720 ; 1838, 48,800.

Carolina, E. by South Carolina and the Atlantic Ocean, S. by Florida, and W. by Alabama. Its length N. toS. is about 280 m.— breadth 250— square m. 58,500. On the margin of the rivers and on the sea coast, the country is generally low and marshy. The pine barrens extend 60 or 80 m. from the sea, beyond which the country rises and undulates, witli con- siderable elevations. In the interior the land is strong and productive, and well adapted to the cultivation of cotton, rice 10 and tobacco. Oranges, limes and figs are also raised abundantly. Considerable gold has been found in the neighborhood of the Blue Ridge. The climate is very healthy in winter, but hot and subject to fevers in the sum- mer season. The chief cities and towns are Savan- nah, Augusta, and Milledgeville, the cap- ital. The university is situated at Athens, and has a library of about 5,000 volumes. There arc over 100 schools in the state, with a fund of S500,000 for their support. Until recently, a large portion of the NW. section of the state was occuiiicd by the Cherokee Indians, and of the W.part by the Creeks, who have recently been removed to the lands assigned them by the United States W. of Arkansas. The principal rivers are the Savannah, the Altamaha, the Great Ogeechee, the Chatahoochec, the Ockmulgee, the Oconee, St. Mary's and Flint. Georgia was the last settled of the At- lantic states. In 1732, James Oglethorpe and a body of emigrants founded Savan- nah. A representative assembly was first established in 1755. Previous to the revo- lution, the colonists were frequently har- rassed by the Indians, and during the revolution the country was often overrun by the British.

Ex- treme length, 382 m. — extreme widtlj, 220 m. Area, 59,300 square m. or 37,952,000 acres. In 17(53, the territory embracing Illinois was ceded to Great Britain by the French, who first made settlements along the Illi- nois and Mississippi rs. as early as 1673. ILL 135 IML After the revolution, the country was held by tiie state of Virginia, and ceded l)y that state to the United States in 1787. When the territory now forming the state of Ohio was set apart, Indiana and Illi- nois were united. In 1809, they were or- ganized into two distinct territories ; and in 1818, Illinois was admitted as a state into the Union. The surface of the state is generally level, witli a little inclination, and gently undulating. In the southern part it is more hilly, but ■without any consider- able elevations. The soil of a great por- tion of the state is extremely rich, and has gained for it from some travellers the appellation of the garden of America. There are, however, some extensive plains and prairies, whicr. are scarce of timber and pure water. Some of them are for a portion of the year inundated with water. But in general, these rich prairies are sus- ceptible of being drained at small expense, which will undoubtedly take place as the population becomes more dense, and which will remove the danger of sickness produced in such neighborhood by the miasmi arising from the ponds and swamps. Much of the prairie land is quite dry. The " bottom" lands, which are flooded at times, but on which the wa- ters do lint, stand, are inexhaustible in fertility — the soil reaching to a depth of 20 or 30 feet. The principal productions are 'wheal and maize, or Indian corn ; but other grains, and also cotton, hemp and tobacco, can be raised. Vegetables can be produ- ced abundantly. Over seventy millions of pounds of lead have been produced from 1821 to 1835, yielding to the U. S. government six million pounds. The population of the state has increas- ed very rapidly. In 1810, it was 12,282; 1820, 55,211 ; 1830, 157,575; and in 1835, according to the state census, it was 285,799. Principal rivers — Illinois, Rock, Kas- kaskia, Sangamon, Little Wabash, Fox and Kankakee. Vandalia is the capital of the state. Internal Jntprovevients. — The state has commenced an extensive system of inter- nal improvements. At the session of the Legislature in 1837, an act was passed appointing a Board of Commissioners of Public Works, and appropriations to the amount of S9,f>00,000 were authorized for various improvements, some of which are as follows: A rail road from Cairo, near the junction of the Ohio and Mississippi rs, by way of Vandalia and Decatur, to a point at or near the S. termination of the Illinois and Michigan Canal, and thence to Galena, S3,.^)00,()00. A rail road from Cluincy, on the Mississippi r. by way of Columbus, Meredosia, in Morgan CO. Springfield, Sangamon co. Danville, in Vermilion co. to the state line, towards Lafayette, la. f 1,850,000. A rail road from Alton to Mount Carniel. A rail road from Alton to Shawneetown, to di- verge from the former at Edwardsville. A rail road from Peoria to Warsaw, on the Mississippi r. A branch of the Central Rail Road, at a point on a line from Shelbyville, Shelby CO. to Hillsboro', via Charleston, Coles CO. and Paris to the Indiana state line, in the direction of Terre Haute. A rail road from Lower Alton, via Hillsboro', to the Central Rail Road, to intersect the former rail road to Terre Haute. A rail road from Bloomington, McLean CO, to Mackinaw t. Tazewell co. with a branch to Illinois r. to connect with the Peoria and Warsaw Rail Road, and an- other branch to Pekin. A rail road from Belleville, by way of Lebanon, to intersect the rail road from Alton to Mount Carmel. Besides these, there are several rail roads undertaken by private companies ; among which are, a rail road from Jack- sonville to Augusta, 22 m.; a rail road from Chicago to Des Plaines, 12 m. : a rail road from St. Louis to tiie coal mines at BlufFs, () m.; a rail road from Naples to Jacksonville. The Illinois (^ Michigan Canal ex- tends from Chicago, on Lake Michigan, to Peru, on Illinois r. 100 m. Besides these, liberal appropriations have been made for improving the Wa- bash, Illinois, Rock, Little Wabash, and Kaskaskia rs. and several public roads. ILLINOIS R. a very important r. whose northern source is Fox r. rising in Wisconsin Territory, and its E. source the Kankakee. When rhe Kankakee and the R. des Plaines unite, they take the name of Illinois. The comparative length of the Illinois, including Fox r. is about 400 m. fallinginto the Mississippi 20 m. above its junction with the Missouri. The length of the Illinois proper is about 2()5 m. It is navigable, generally, for 210 m. and at high water as far as Otta- wa, about 220 rn. The navigation of the r. by steam and other vessels is consider- able and fast increasing. ILLINOIS, V.

Its greatest lengtli from N. to S. is 27.^ ni. by 1 ir> m. in breadth, and contains about 3^,000 square ni. The surface of the country is generally level, witii occasional broken and uneven sections, which, however, are more par- ticularly confnied to the neighboriiood of the Ohio r. in the S. jiart of tiie state. There are many prairies, some of which are extensive, containing belts of good timber on the streams winch cross them. The climate is similar to that of Ohio and Illinois, and is generally healthy, ex- cept on the borders of Lake Michigan, wiiicli are subject to heavy rains. The •winters are short, and not usually very severe. The soil is extremely rich and produc- tive. The ])rairies are beautiful and well adapted to the growtii of wheat and In- dian corn. But nnich of the country in the N. )iart of the state is low, and too wet for cultivation. The principal rivers are the Ohio, which forms the S. border of the state — the Wa- bash, Wliile, White Water, Kankakee, Sidamanic and Mississinewa. Tlie eliief towns are New Albany, Jef- fersonville, Vinccnnes, Indianapolis, (the late capital of the state,) and Springfield, the present state capital. Indiana College was founded in 1827, and is locatctl at Bloomington. The U. S. granted two townsliips of land to this eolk'ge. The general subject of common school education had not been much at- tended to, up to the year 1838, although provided for in the constitution. The population of the state lias increas- ed very rajiidly. In 1800, it was only 5,(;4I ; 1810, 2 1,5-20; 18'J0, 117,178; 1830, 343,031. Indiana was visited as early as 1703 by the French traders and soldiers from C'anada, and some small settlements were made, particularly on the Wabash, among which was Vincennes. The settlers lived a long time in almost entire seclusion from the rest of the world. The savages frequently harassed them and broke up their settlements. In 1703, the country passed by treaty into the hands of the English, but it was merely nominal. Be- fore 1800, Indiana was included in the general territory NW. of the Ohio r. and from 1800 to 180i>, it was united in its terriU)rial government with Illinois. In 181(1, it was admitted into the Union as a state. The settlers suffered so much from the savages, that in IHll, Gen. Harrison was sent against them with an armed force. They encamped at Tijipccaiioe, near Prophets town, where the Indians were assembled to the number of tiOO warriors. After negotiation, in which the Indians professed great friendship, they arose at night and attacked the American camp with horrid shouts and yells. The troops were at first thrown into confusion, but were rallied, and succeeded in entirely de- feoting the savages. Two hundnxl Ameri- cans fell in the battle. Internal Iviprovancnts. — The public improvements now in progress in this state are — The M'aftash i\' Eric Canal, to connect Lake Erie at Toledo, on the Mau- mee Bay, with the Wabash r. at Terre Haute. The Central Canal connects the Wa- bash and Erie Canal, at Peru, on the Wabash r. with the Ohio r. at Evansville, and is again connected with the Wabash and Erie Canal at Terre Haute, by a cross cut interseeting it at Point Com- merce, at the mouth of Eel r. 40^ m. long. The M'hite }\'at(r Canal is to connect Cambridge City, on the national road, with the Ohio r. at Lawrenceburgh, 76 m. A branch extends from the main canal at Harrison to Cincinnati, Ohio. The Madison tj- Lajayette Rail Hoady IND 137 IRI (of which 22 m. are completed, from Vernon to Madison,) is expected to be finished in 1842. Length, 160 m. In addition to these, two McAdamized roads are in progress — one from Jeffer- sonville to Crawfordsville, connecting the Ohio, opposite Louisville, with the Wa- bash and Erie Canal — 158 m. long; and The New Albany tf- Vincennes Road — length, 104 m.

KENTUCKY R. rises in the Cumber- land Mountains, in the SE. part of Ky. and flows NW. to the Ohio r. at Port William, Gallatin co. It is navigable in high water for steamboats to Frankfort, the capital. Length, 325 m. This r. flows through a rich agricultural country, con- taining coal, iron, salt and lumber, and a population of 180,000. KEUTUOKir, one of the Uni- ted States, is bounded N. by Indiana and Ohio, E. by Virginia, S. by Tennessee, and W. by Missouri and Illinois. Its greatest length is 400 m. from E. to W. Its mean breadth, N. and S. 140 m. — with an area of 40,600 square m. or about 26,000,000 acres. The state originally formed part of Va. and was first settled by the celebrated Col. Daniel Boone, the backwoodsman, who built a log hut, and established himself with his family, in the midst of great dif- ficulties and discouragements, in 1769, Lexington was founded in 1776. The state was set apart from Va. in 1790, and in 1792 it was admitted into the Union. The citizens of Kentucky have always been distinguished for their gallantry and chivalry, which were particularly mani- fested in their enthusiasm to share in the toil and glory of the late war of 1812. The principal rivers are the Ohio, which forms the whole northern boundary, the Kentucky, Licking, Green, Cumberland, Tennessee, Salt, and Big Sandy r. which forms half of the E. boundary. The Kentucky r. flows through a chasm of limestone several hundred feet perpendicu- lar height. The chief towns are Louisville, which is the largest ; Lexington, which is the oldest ; Maysville, and Frankfort, the state capital. The surface of the country is undula- ting and diversified, presenting but few great elevation^lexcept in the eastern part, which is mountainous. A large portion of the central sisqion of the state is a rich and most beautiful country, not surpassed by any in the world. The soil generally throughout the state is very fertile. The climate is healthy and agreeable — the winters seldom lasting longer than three months. The whole country W. of the moun- tains rests on a bed of limestone from 8 to 10 feet below the surface. There are many remarkable cavities, called " sink holes," caused by the waters penetrating through the limestone. Some of them are 60 feet deep, and 250 in circumference at the top. There are also a number of wondei-ful caverns of great depth and extent. The Mammoth Cave near Green River is the most celebrated. It has been explored to the extent of 15 m. without reaching the termination. Iron is found abundantly — also cop- peras, lead and coal are found in different parts of the state. Salt springs are nu- merous. The principal agricultural productions are wheat, hemp and tobacco. Indian corn and cotton are also raised, and a great variety of fruits. A great trade is carried on by viver navigation, in the various agricultural productions. A large number of fine horses and cattle are also raised and trans- ported on flat boats down the rivers, or driven across the mountains into the At- lantic states. Of religious denominations, the Bap- tists are the most numerous. There ar« KEY 147 KIN also a large number of Presbyterians and Methodisis. The Catholics and Episco- palians are less numerous. There are several colleges in this state, viz: The Transylvanian University, at Lexington; the Central College, at Dan- ville; Cumberland College, at Princeton; a college at Augusta, and one at George- town. Also a Catholic Seminary, called St. Joseph's College, at Bardstown. Com- mon school education has not yet received that attention which its great importance demands.

ZiCUISIAICA, one of the Uni- ted States, bounded on the N. by Arkan- sas and Mississippi, E. by Mississippi and the Gulf of Mexico, S. by G. of Mexico, and W. by Texas. Its greatest length, E. and W. is 320 m. Its greatest breadth N. and S. 270 m. and contains about 48,000 square miles. In 1082, part of the country was ex- plored by La Salle, and called Louisiana after Louis XIV. He began a settlement in 1084 nt the Bay of St. Bernard on the G. of Mexico about 300 m. W. of the mouth of the Mississippi. The Missis- sippi r. had been already discovered in I()73 by two French missionaries, who crossed from Q,uel)ec, by way of the Lakes, to the Mississippi, and down the r. to the mouth of the Arkansas. A more permanent settlement was made in 1099: and in 1717, the city of New Orleans was founded. In 1763, Louis- iana, which included Arkansas, Missouri, and all the territory now in possession of the United States W. of the Mississippi r. was ceded by France to Sjjain, but was not taken possession of by that pow- er until 17f)9. It was ceded back to France in 1800; and in 1803 it was pur- chased by the U. States for 60,000,000 francs, or over 15,000,000 dollars. In 1812 Louisiana, as at present defined, was admitted into the Union as a sove- reign State. In 1814 the State was in- vaded by a British army under Gen. Packenham, which, after several indeci- sive actions, was completely repulsed with areat slaughter, by Gen. Jackson, below^ew Orleans, Jan. 8, 1815. Three-fourths of the surface of the state may be considered an entire level — divid- ed into swamps, prairies, alluvions, pine forests, hickory and oak lands. The ele- vations are very slight, and are principally LOU m LOU in the western section. Some of the prairies are of vast extent, containing from 5,000 to 8,0fX) square m. The Attakapus and tlic Opclousas prairies arc the largest. They contain rich pasture for cattle, and are fringed with forests of pine on the N. and S. Many spots exhibit beautiful fertile plantations, on which cotton and indigo are cultivated, and large herds of cattle may be seen quietly grazing. A great portion of the state, amounting to 5,000,000 acres, is annually inundated by the waters of the Mississippi. Part of this soil is of the greatest fertility, and is susceptible of being drained — other portions are composed of cypress swamps and marshes. Cotton is the great staple of the state, but sugar is produced in great quantities in the more elevated soil. Rice also is produced on the banks of the Mississippi. The principal rivers are the Missis- sippi, Red r. Washita, Atchafalaya, Black, Lafourche, Sabine, Tensaw, Cal- casia and Beuff. The state abounds in numerous lakes, tlie jirincipal of which are Lake Borgne, Pontcharlrain, Sabine, Calcasia and Barrataria. The chief towns are.JN'ew Orleans, the capital of the state, l^onaldsonville, St. Martins, Alexandria, St. Francisville, Ba- ton Rouge and Natchitoches — but N. Or- leans is the only town of considerable size. The Catholic is the prevailing religion. Other denominations do not number over 40 ministers. There is a college at New Orleans, and one at Jackson, and ^"'10,000 annually are appro[)riated for the education of the chil dren of the poor.

Among other jiublic works, that of the Draining Company deserves to be par- ti(;ularly noted. The object is to drain, by means of steam engines, the swamps between New Orleans and Lake Pont- chartrain, containing about 23,000 acres, on a pliin similar to that used in Holland. Profits to be ditrived from the increased value of tiie lands drained, which are well adapted to cultivation of the sugar cane. LOUISIANA, V. Pike co. Mo. LC)UISVILLE, t. St. Lawrence co. N. Y.

It lies between 43° 5' and 48'= 6' N. lat. and 66« 49' and 7F W. long, from Greenwich.* Its greatest length is 348 m — greatest breadth, 180 m. Area about 33,300 square m. The country was originally granted to the Council of Plymouth by James I. in IGOG, who attempted a settlement at the mouth of the Kcnnebeck r. which failed. In 1024 the company granted it to Gorges and Mason, under whom it was first per- manently settled in 1(530. Massachusetts purchased the territory of them, and in 1G91 her charter embracing it was con- firmed. It remained a district of Massa- chusetts until 1820, when it became a separate state, and was admitted into the Union. The surface of the country, though not mountainous, presents some broken ridges in continuation of the Appalachian range ; and occasional elevations which rise sev- eral thousand feet. A range of high- lands enters the state from the N. part of New Hampshire and runs parallel with the St. Lawrence, continuing a north- erly and westerly course, intersecting the N. and S. line which forms the E. boun- dary of Me. These are the highlands which divide the waters which flow into the St. Lawrence from those which flow into the Atlantic. There are other con- siderable elevations in irregular groups, of which the principal are the Katahdin, White Cap, Saddleback, Ebeeme and Spence Mountains. The Katahdin is 5,375 feet high ; several of the others are from 3,500 to 4,000 feet above tide. The winters are generally severe. The ground is covered with snow in the inte- Tlie limits here given are acicorJing to the Ameri- cnn clnini under the treaty of Ghent, (icsmbing the hijunilriry ii! these wonis :—" From the northwest an- i;le of Nova ficotia, viz : that angle which is formed by a line ilrawii due nortli from the source of St. Croix rivir lo liie liishlaiuls, along the said highlands! which divide those rivers that rni|i!y tl\eni€ Fox Islands. The principal bays are Penobscot, Pas- samaquoddy, Frenehman's, Casco and Portland hajrbor. There are many other fine harbors favorable for commerce. The chief rivers are the Penobscot, Kennebeck, Androscoggin, Saco, St. Johns and St. Croix. Abundance of fish are taken all along the coast. Iron abounds in many parts of the state, and lead is found in small quantities. Slate of a superior quality exists between the Kennebeck and St. Johns rs. Marble is found on the Penobscot, and good building granite abounds in all parts of the state. Lime is abundant in Waldo and Lincoln cos. The principal towns are Portland, the former capital, Hallowell, Augusta, the present state capital, Bath, Brunswick, York, Saco, Bangor, Waldoboro, Ma- chias, Wiscasset, Eastport and Kenne- bunk. The state has many respectable insti- tutions of learning. Bowdoin College, at Brunswick, founded from lands grant- ed by Hon. James Bowdoin, in 1794, and other lands from Massachusetts and Maine. Waterville College, incorporated in 1813. Bangor Theological Seminary. Maine Wesleyan Seminary, at Readfield, incorporated in 1822. Gardiner Lyceum, established in 1822, to prepare young men by a scientific education to become skilful farmers and mechanics. Besides these, there are about 35 incor- porated academies, aided by grants of land from the state. The state has also provided for common school instruction, A sum equal to 40 cents for each inhabi- tant is raised bylaw in every town, to be apportioned among the school districts.

Internal Improvements. — The Cumber- land tf- Oxford Canal, extends from Port- land to Sebago Pond, 20i m. and has 26 locks. It was completed in 1829. By means of a lock in Songo r. it is united with Brandy and Long Ponds, making the whole water communication 50 m. Total cost, near $250,000. The Bangor tj- Orono Rail Road, from Bangor to Orono or Oldtown, 10 m. long, completed in 1836. No other canal or rail road is completed. A rail road has been projected from the coast of Maine to Quebec, and a recon- noisance of three routes has been made by Col. Long, of the United States Topo- graphical Engineers. The route from Portland to GLuebec, 277 m. is estimated to cost S'2,446,000. The route from Wis- casset to Quebec, 246 m. ; cost, S'1,963,500. The route from Belfast to Quebec, 227 m. ; cost, $1,721,500. The last route is pro- nounced the most eligible. A rail road has been projected from Portland to Bangor, 132 ni. long.

Maryland was first explored by Lord Baltimore, a Catholic, who visited the country to form a setllement on ac- count of the persecution of that sect in England. He died on his return to Eng- land, while preparing for emigration. His son obtained the grant of the territo- ry, and named it Maryland, in honor of Henrietta Maria, the Q.ueen of Charles I. He appointed his brother, Leonard Cal- vert, governor of the colony, who estab- lished a settlement in 1634, at St. Mary's, on the Potomac. The Catholics were se- verely persecuted for some years after, and the colonists experienced various troubles, which were removed at the restoration of Charles II. in 1660. The Calvert family were a second time de- prived of the government, by William and Mary, and Maryland continued a royal government until 1716, when the proprietor was again restored to his rights. On the 14th of August, 1776, the consti- tution of the State was ratified. The only mountains are along the N. bank of the Potomac, where the Appala- chian ridge crosses a narrow strip of the State. The rest of the State is generally undulating and level. There is much good land in the State, adapted to the cultivation of wheat and tobacco. The valleys in the W. part of the State particularly, are extremely fer- tile and productive. The climate is rather milder than that of Pennsylvania, and somewhat warmer in summer. The weather is liable to sud- den changes of heat and cold. In the low lands,, on the shores, it is subject to intermittent fevers; but in the more ele- vated and undulating sections, the climate is salubrious and healthy. The principal rivers are the Potomac, Susquehannah, Patuxent, Patapsco, and the Severn, which fall into Chesapeake Bay on the W. side. On the E. side are Chester, Choptank and Nanticoke rs. TheN. half of Chesapeake Bay pene- trates far into the interior, dividing the State into two sections, called the Eastern and Western shores. The principal islands are Kent island, the Tangier islands, and Assatiegue island. Year. Whites. Col'd.

Maryland, though not called a manu- facturing State, contains numerous man- ufactories of cotton, wool, copper, and iron-rolling and flouring mills. Flour is the great staple of the State ; and tobacco is also produced in considerable quan- tities. Washington College, at Chestertown, was instituted in 1782; St. John's College, at Annapolis, was founded in 1784. The Medical College was founded in Balti- more, 1807, and in 1812, was chartered as the " University of Maryland" — hav- ing added to it the faculties of Law and Divinity. St. Mary's College at Balti- more, a Catholic institution, was founded in 1799. The College at Mt. St. Mary, near Emmitsburg, also Catholic, was founded in 1830. Population at various periods : In 1660, 12,000; 1701, 25,000; 1755, 108,000. Total. 319,728 345,824 380,546 407,350 446,913 Internal Improvements. — Two of the most important improvements in the U, States have been undertaken in Mary- land. The Chesapeake tf« Ohio Canalj and the Baltimore (f- Ohio Rail Road. The Chesapeake tf' Ohio Canal was chartered by Virginia in 1824, confirmed by Maryland and Congress, 1825, and commenced in 1828. It is to extend from the Potomac, near Georgetown, to Cum- berland on the Potomac; thence by Wills or. Youghiogeny and Monongahela rs. to Pittsburg. Length 34H m. Distance from Georgetown to the Pennsylvania State line, 189 m. The original estimate of cost was S22,375,000. A later esti- mate is ^9,347,408. The State of Mary- land subscribes S3,000,000 for the work, and the U. States Government $1,000,000. The whole lockage required will be 3,215 feet. The locks are to be 100 feet by 15. Breadth of the canal at the sur- face of the water, from 60 to 80 feet ; at the bottom, 50 feet; depth from 6 to 7 feet. A tunnel is required tin-ougli the Alleghany mountains, at the summit level, 4 m. and 80 yards in length. Porl Deposit Canal, 10 m. long, along the E. bank of the Susquehannah r. ex- tends from Port Deposit to the boundary of the State — designed to overcome the rapids. MAS 176 MAS The Baltimore tf- Ohio Rail Road, was incorporated in 1827, by the Legis- latures of Maryland, Virginia, and Penn- sylvania, commenced July 4, 1828 — to extend from Baltimore to the Ohio river, about 860 m. 83,000,000 of the stock have been subscribed by the State of Ma- ryland, and 83,000,000 by the city of Bal- timore. A considerable portion of the road is completed and in operation. The Baltimore tf- Port Deposit R. Road, originally designed to connect with the Oxford and Columbia rail roads to Phila- delphia extends from Baltimore to Ha- vre de Grace, 5 m. below Port Deposit ; and from Baltimore 34J ni. From a point opposite to Havre de Grace, the Wilmington & Susquehannah rail road continues the route to the line between Delaware and Pennsylvania. Thence the Philadelphia & Baltimore rail road com- pletes the communication to Philadelphia. The whole distance by this route is 93 m. The route by way of the Oxford & Co- lumbia rail roads, would be 118 m. The Oxford rail road is for the present sus- pended. The Baltimore cf- Washington Rail Road, 40 m. long, was completed in 1835. The Baltimore (^ Susquehamiah Rail Road, to extend from Baltimore to York, Pa. 59j m. was begun in 1830, and considerable progress has been made in the sections within the State of Maryland.

Mean length from E. to W. 140 m.— mean breadth about 75 m. Area about 8,000 square m. Although Cabot, when he discovered North America in 1497, sailed along the coast of Massachusetts, yet no regular discovery was made until 1602, when Bartholomew Gosnold explored Cape Cod and Buzzard's Bay. Capt. Smith, in 1614, explored the whole coast of Maine and Massachusetts, to the S. extremity of the bay. The flourishing descriptions he gave of the country induced Charles I. then Prince Charles, to call it New England. No regular settlement, how- ever, was made until December 22d, 1620, when the Puritans, to the number of 101, emigrated to America on account of their persecutions in England. They landed at Plymouth, and established a republican form of government, on the principles of virtue and intelligence. Every child in the community was to be instructed. Re- ligion was an object of special care with the colonists, which extended even to the privilege of voting being confined to the church members. Other settlements were soon made along the coast. Salem was founded in 1627, and Boston in 1630. The hardships and dangers of the early settlers were very great. The first geno- ral court, consisting of 24 representatives from the different settlements, was held in 1634. Previous to this, all the freemen assembled from time to time for the trans- action of public business. Trial by jury was now established. In 1643, a union took place between all the New England colonies. In 1664, the province of Maine placed itself under the protection of Mas- sachusetts. The colonists suff'ered much in a war with Philip, which broke out in MAS 177 MAS 1675. The colony of Massachusetts Bay and that of Plymouth, or tlie Old Colony, were united by a royal charter in 1G92. The governors were appointed by the king of England, who exercised the power also of annulling the colonial laws. This was the general condition of the colony until the revolution, in 177(5, in which Massachusetts took a foremost and active part. A state constitution was formed in 1780, which was revised in 1820, and again revised and ratified in Nov. 183G. A serious insurrection broke out in the state in 1786, under Shays, which was not quelled without great difficulty by the troops and militia under Generals Lincoln and Shepard. The general surface of the country is somewhat rough and uneven, without any very considerable mountains. The Green Mountain range of Vermont enters the W. part of Massachusetts, which are here called the Hoosac and Tagkannuc ridges. Of the latter, the highest elevation is Sad- dle Mountain, in the N. part, near 4,000 feet high ; and Tagkannuc Mountain, 2,800 feet high. The Hoosac range is less elevated, and divides the branches of the Hoosac and Housatonic rs. The other highest elevations are Wachusett Mountain, in Worcester co. : Mount Hoi- yoke and Mount Tom, in Hampshire co. and Mount Toby, in Franklin co. The chief rivers are the Connecticut and its tributaries, Westfield, Deerfield, Millers and Chickopee rs. ; the Merri- mac, Housatonic, Hoosac, Cluinnebaug, Pawtucket, Charles, Concord, Taunton and Nashua rs. Of these, only two afford much facility for navigation. The principal bays are Massachusetts, Cape Cod, Buzzards, Boston, Barnstable and Plymouth Bays. The principal islands are Nantucket, Martha's Vineyard and Elizabeth Islands. The prominent capes are Cape Cod, Cape Ann and Nahant. The winters are occasionally severe, but less so than formerly. Early in the spring, the NE. winds are cold and disa- freeable, but the weather in May and uring the summer becomes settled, mild and agreeable. The country assumes a rich and beautiful appearance, the air is pure and healthy, and art and nature seem to vie in rendering the whole face of things delightful to the eye. The middle and western sections of the state contain many beautiful, fertile tracts, in a high state of cultivation. In the southern and eastern parts the soil is lighter, and on the coast there are occa- sional marshy and barren tracts. I 23 The commerce of Massachusetts is ex- tensive, and second only to that of New York. Much of the shipping is employed in the mackerel, cod and whale fisheries. The whale fishery is carried on chiefly from Nantucket and New Bedford. This adventurous business has been justly con- sidered as a nursery of skilful and enter- prising seamen. This state is distinguished for her man- ufactures of every description. The most considerable are those of cotton, woollens, boots and shoes, leather, cordage, wrought and cast iron, nails, hats, straw bonnets, glass, paper, oil and salt.

But as the tfrritory was long in dispute between the French and the Spanish, and afterwcivds between the French and the English, further settlements were retarded for many years. Great dif- ficulties were experienced with the Indians, who, in 1729, massacred all the French at this post, including both sexes, several hundred in number. The Indians were soon after entirely subdued. The whole country, in 1763, was ceded, as part of j Florida, by the French to Great Britain, The territory, in 1781, again fell into pos^ session of Spain, by whom it was ceded to the United States in 1798. It was or- ganized as a territory, including Ala- bama; and in December. 1817, was ad- mitted into the Union as a state. The surface of the country in the S. part is level, with some moderate eleva- tions in the SW. In the N. it is gently undulating. A portion of the state is composed of pine barrens. The soil in the S. part is thin, and in the neighbor- hood of the Mississippi it is generally in- undated by the overflowing of the river. In the N. parts the soil is very fertile, i The climate is unhealthy in the low and swampy lands, and in the S. parts of the state, in the summer season. There are no winters ; but ice is sometimes seen in the N. parts. The principal rivers are the Mississip- pi, Pascagoula, Pearl, Yazoo, Big Black, and branches of the Tombecbee. The chief towns are Natchez, Monti- cello, Warrenton, Vicksburg, and Jack- son, the capital. The northern part of the state was oc- cupied until recently, by the Chickasaw and Choctaw Indians, which is now all organized into counties. The state con- tains in all 56 counties. There are three colleges — Jefferson Col- lege, at Washington, near Natchez, found- ed in 1802; Oakland College, founded in 1831 ; and Mississippi College, at Clinton, founded in 1830. There are also several very respectable academies. According to a return made in 1837, there were cultivated in 1836, 1,048,530 acres of land ; and in the same year, 317,783 bales of cotton were produced. Population in 1816,45,929; 1820, 75,448; 1830, 136,806; 1837, 308,744, of which 164,393 were slaves.

W]E!"W HABTPSHIHE, one of the United States, bounded N. by Lower Canada, E. by Maine and the At- lantic, S. by Massachusetts, and W. by Vermont. Greatest length, 175 m. — great- est breadth, 86 m. Area about 9,500 square m. New Hampshire was discovered by Capt. Smith m 1614. In 1622 it was granted by patent to John Mason, under the name of Laconia. The first settle- ments were made in the following year, at Dover and Portsmouth. In 1629, all the territory, including lands purchased of the Indians by Rev. .John Wheelwright, between the Merrimack and Piscataqua rs. and extending 60 m. from the sea, was called New Hampshire. In 1641, all the settlements voluntarily united themselves to Massachusetts, and composed part of the county of Norfolk. In 1679 they were made a separate province, by Charles II. The first General Assembly convened at Portsmouth, in 1680. In 1689 it wag again united to Massachusetts, and again separated in 1692. From 1702 to 1741 it was united to Massachusetts, when it be- came a separate government. During the revolution, it was under a temporary administration. In 1784 a new constitu- tion was adopted, which was amended in 1792. The surface of the state within 20 or 30 m. of the seacoast is generally level. In the N. and NW. parts it is hilly and mountainous. The White Mountains, in Coos CO. are considerable elevations, and the highest in the United States, There are several elevations of this ridge between the Connecticut and Merrimack rs. the principal of which are Monad- nock, Simapee, Kearsarge, Mooshelock, (or Moosehillock,) and Carrs Mountain. Moosehillock is over 4,600 feet high. The soil generally is fertile, and par- ticularly so along the rivers. The hills afford pasturage for immense numbers of cattle and sheep. Some of the valleys are poor, but one side or the other is most- ly rich and productive. The climate is less severe than in Maine. The rivers are generally frozen in November, and the earth is covered with snow, which continues until April, and in the more elevated and uncultivated sections, until May. The summers are mild and salu- brious. Epidemics are seldom known. Iron, copper, plumbago and soapstone are found in this state. Beautiful granite abounds near Concord, Hopkinton, Bos- cawen and other places, and has given this the appellation of the "granite state." This slate produces much excellent pine timber, which grows here very high and straight. The whole surface was origin- ally covered witli forest trees of all varie- ties. Grain, pork, beef, butter and cheese are produced, and much of the latter arti- cles exported. The principal rivers are the Connecti- cut, which rises in the N. of the state, the Merrimack and Piscataqua. The largest lake is the Winnepiseogee. Tiicre are some smaller lakes, such as Squam, Sun- apee and Ossipee. New Hampshire has but 18 m. of sea coast, and one harbor and seaport, Portsmouth. The principal towns are Portsmouth, Concord, Dover, Exeter and Amherst. Much of tlie produce of the state finds its way into Maine, from the N. and into Boston and Hartford from the S. and W. There are large manufactories at Dover, Somersworlh and elsewhere, particul,-*rly of cotton and wool. NEW 206 NEW Dartmouth College was established at Hanover in 1770 ; Gilmanton Theological Seminary, in 1835, at Gilmanton. Phil- lips Academy, at Exeter, was founded in 1781. The common schools are sup- ported in part by tax ; about one hun-^ dred thousand dollars a year is thus rais- ed, in addition to an income of 9 or $10,000 from the Literary fund. There are about 65,000 children in the state of a fit age to attend school. Intenial Improvements. — Various ca- nals ha-.vi been made to overcome the falls in MerriVnack r.— viz. Bow canal, 3 m. below Concord; Hookset canal; Amos- keag canal ; Union canal, below Amos- keag falls ; and a canal round Sewalls falls, at Concord.

New Haven CO. and one of the capitals of the state of Ct. is situated on a plain at the bead of a small bay which opens into Long Island Sound, 4 m. distant. The city is hand- somely laid out in regular squares, vvith wide streets. On one of the squares are the college buildings, several churches, and other edifices, which, tvith the beauti- ful elms and shade trees, have a very strik- ing effect. This city is much admired for its chaste and elegant appearance. The state house is a splendid edifice, after the model of the Parthenon. Yale College, one of the oldest in the country, founded in 1700, is located here. There are also many very respectable male and female seminaries. The coasting trade, particu- larly with New York, is considerable, and steamboats daily arrive and depart. The Farmington canal terminates here, forming a connection with Connecticut r. at Northampton. Distance, SW. from Hartford, 34 m. 76 NE. of New York. Pop. 1820, 8.326 ; 1830, 10,678. NEW Haven, t.

O, SJE"W JERSEY, one of the United States, bounded N. by New York; E. by N. York and the Atlantic Ocean; S. by Delaware bay, and W. by Dela- ware r. separating it from Del. and Pa. Its greatest length N. and S. is 163 m. ks mean width 50 — containing 8,300 square miles. The first settlement in N. J. was made by the Danes, in 1624, at Bergen, oppo- site N. Y. city. In 1627, the Swedes formed a scttlen:ient on the W. bank of the Delaware. In 1640 the English made NEW 207 NEW a settlement on the Delaware, but were driven away by the Swedes and Dutch. In 1655, the Dutch of New York con- quered the Swedes and sent them all back to Europe. In 1664, the English took possession of the country, and it was granted to Lord Berkley and Sir George Cai-teret, and was named New Jersey, in compliment to the latter, who had been governor of the Isle of Jersey. The Dutch afterwards reconquered the whole country, but soon restored it by treaty. In 1676, it was divided into East and West Jersey, which were reunited in 1702. In 1776 a constitution was adopt- ed. N. Jersey was ardently attached to the principles of the revolution, and among the first to accept the new consti- tution of the U. States. The S. portion of the state is level and sandy, rising tov/ards the -""'. into moun- tainous ridges. There are ijiany rich valleys and sections highly productive of wheat and corn, which are the staples. Iron, copper and copperas are found in various parts. An elevntcd range of land on the ] ludson r. commences above Hoboken, and extends up the rivcr for 20 or 30 m. forming a high perpendicular wall of stone, called the Palisadoes. The highest point is about 500 feet. The cli- mate is mild and healthy. The principal rivers are the Hudson on the E. and the Delaware on the W. the Raritan, Passaic, and Hackensack. Newark and Amboy are the principal bays. The chief towns are Newark, New Brunswick, Paterson, Elizabetlitown, Trenton, the state capital, Burlington, Bordentown, and Perth Amboy. The principal manufactories are at Paterson, Newark, Trenton, and Belle- ville. The Legislature consists of a Council and House of Assembly, chosen annu- ally. The Council is composed of one member from each county, and the As- sembly of three from each county. The Governor is elected annually by the legis- lature. His salary is S2,000. The College of New Jersey, at Prince- ton, was founded in 1746 ; contains 12 instructors, 2,183 alumni, 240 students, and 11,000 volumes in the two libraries. Rutgers Collej^e, at New Brunswick, was founded in 1770; has 6 instructors, 254 alumni, 93 students, and 6,500 volumes in the libraries. TheTiieological Semina- ry of the Presbyterian church, at Princeton, was founded in 1813 ; it has 5 professors, 130 students, and 7,000 volumes in the library. The Seminary of the Dutch Reformed church, at New Brunswick, was founded in 1784; it has three pro- fessors, and 2-1 students. The system for the regulation of common schools was modified liy the legislature at its session in 1837-38, but it is still considered in- efficient in several particulars.

NE W Orleans, city and capital of the state of La. is situated on the N. bank of a bend in the Mississippi r. 105 m. above its mouth, and 90 in a direct line. It was laid out in 1717, and named after the Duke of Orleans of France. At high water the ground on which the oity stands is below the surface of the river, and is pro- tected from inundation by a bank called the levee. The city and suburbs extend about three miles along the river, and over NEW 209 NEW one-fourth of a mile back. Owing to the spongy nature of the ground there are no cellars. The streets are narrow, and the houses are built chiefly in the French and Spanish style. Among the public build- ings are a custom house, a town house, hospital, U. S. mint, cathedral, market house, a court house, an Ursuline convent, and several churches and banks. This city is the great depot of the vast and growing trade of the Mississippi r. The great region of the Mississippi Valley must ever continue to jiour in its resources to augment the business and wealth of the place. The levee is constantly crowd- ed with ships and craft of all kinds; and during the cotton season, immense quanti- ties of bales are piled up in the streets. There are sometimes 1,500 flat bottom boats in the harbor at a time. Steam- boats are constantly arriving and depart- ing, and 50 or (JO may often be seen to- gether. Half the population are French and Spanish. The city is subject to en- demics every summer, which sweep oft' many strangers ; — yet the population has rapidly increased. In 1810, it contained 17,242; in 1820, 27,178; in 1830, 46,082 inhabitants. New Orleans was the capi- tal of the colony under the Spanish unti ceded to France in 1803, and by France it was given up to the United States in 1803. Distance SW. from Washington 1,203 m.

Bounded by Hud- son, East, and Plarlacm rs. and Spuyten Duyvcl cr. The compact built parts are confined to the S. ])oint, formed by the junction of East and Hudson rs. Tlie first houses were built in 1G2I. The bay affords one of the most beautiful harbors in the world, 9 m. long l)y 4 broad, with Long Island on the cast, Statcn Island on the south, and New Jersey on the west side, having an outlet to the ocean be- tween Staten and Long islands, called the Narrows. The city is well protected by forts at the Narrows and on Bedlows and Governors islands. The city was first settled by the Dutch, in 1GI5, and called New Amsterdam. It came into possession of the English, in 1()G4, who called it New York, in honor of the Duke of York. The streets in the lower part of the city arc irregular, and were formerly very narrow; but within a few years past great improvements have been made, at immense expense, in widen- ing and straightening them. A great portion of this section has been rebuilt, with large conmiodious stores. The, dis- astrous fire of Dec. 16, 1835, which de- stroyed property to the amount of about ^18,000,000, laid waste a large district of the most valuable; part of the city, which has since been entirely rebuilt with ele- gant substantial fire-proof stores, with granite fronts. In the west side of the town the streets arc more regular; and above Houston-street, they are regularly laid out east and west, running, north of I2lh street, from river to river, up to 155th street, nearly the entire extent of the isl- and. These are intersected with wide and beautiful avenues running north and south. Broadway, which is the princijial street, is 80 feet wide and about 3 miles long; contains many splendid stores and private dwellings. It is the most puiilic promenade for the gay and fashionable, and crowds of strangers from various parts of the world. There are several beautiful rides on the avenues and roads leading to Harlaem, Yorkville, Bloom- ingdale, and Mauhattanville. There is a rail road to Harlaem, through York- ville, affording a rapid and cheap convey- ance at all hours. Omniijiises are (con- stantly passing through the princi[)al streets, from one end of the city to an- other. Among the public buildings, the pr'in- cipal arc the City Hall, Merchants' Kx- change. Custom Hous(;, Hall of Jusiice, Astor House, Holt's Hotel, University, Columbia College, St. John's, St. Paul's, and Trinity clmrehes, the Tabernacle, St. Patrick's Cathedral, and several other splendid church edifices, newly erected in Duane and Grand streets, Broadway and Lafayette-place. The City Hall stands on the Park, which contains an an^a of II acres. The front of the building is of while mari)le. It is 21(5 feet long, 105 broad, and (i5 f 'Ct high in the centre. The Hall of Record, east of the City Hall, formerly a jail, is also a neat, chaste building. In the rear, fronting on Cham- bers-street, is a range of buildings 200 feet long, formerly the Almshouse, now NEW 212 NEW called the New York Institution, and oc- cupied for various purposes. The Mer- chants' Exchange, now erecting, is to be a magnificent structure, mucii larger than the building destroyed at the great fire in 1835, occupying the entire front on Wall- street, between William and Hanover. The Custom House is a noble building of marble, on the corner of Wall, Nas- sau, and Pine streets. It is 177 feet long, and 89 wide. Its model is the Parthenon. Tlie A.stor Hotel is a plain massive build- ing of granite, 201 feet on Broadway, oc- cupying the whole front between Barclay and Vesey streets, opposite the Park, 154 feet deep, and five stories high. It con- tains between 300 and 400 rooms. Its height is 77 feet. The dining-room is 100 feet by 40. The University of the City of New York is a splendid building of white marble, in the Gothic or English collegiate style of architecture, fronting Washington-square. It is 180 feet by 100. Tiie chapel in the centre receives its light from a window 24 feet wide and 50 feet high. St. John's Chapel is an el- egant building, with a spire 240 feet high. An elegant park belongs to this church, occu])ying an entire square, opposite the church. "St. Patrick's Cathedral is 120 feet long by 80 wide, and is the largest church in the city. St. Paul's Church, near the Park, is a fine building, with a spire 234 feet high. Trinity Church is one of the oldest in the city. It was first built in 1G96, burned in 177G, and rebuilt in 1778. The spire is 198 feet high. The graveyard attached to the church contains, according to authentic records, 160,000 bodies, exclusive of those buried there during the revolutionary war. Holt's Hotel occupies the corner on Fulton, Pearl, and Water streets; is of marble, seven stories high. Columbia College is a fine stone building. It was established in 1754, under the name of Kings College, which it retained until the revolution. The Penitentiary is situated on Black- wells Island ; an extensive stone build- ing, the stone of which was wrought from the quarries by the convicts. The Mercantile Library Association, and the Clinton Hall Association, have a fine building on the corner of Nassau and Beeknian streets. The library contains about 17,000 volumes, and is yearly in- creasing. The Library Association is composed of the merchants' clerks, a very enterprising body of young men. Seve- ral courses of lectures are delivered annu- ally, on scientific and popular subjects. The Lyceum of Natural History, and the Stuyvesant Institute, have chaste and elegant buildings on Broadway. The Lyceum has a library and museum. The N. Y. Society Library, founded in 1754, has above 20,000 volumes. It has recent- ly been united with the Athenaeum. The American Institute, incorporated in 1829, was established for the encouragement of domestic industry, in agriculture, manu- factures, and the arts. The Mechanics' Institute is somewhat similar in its de- sign. Both societies have annual exhibi- tions of specimens of American indus- try. The New York Hospital, in Broad- way, opposite Pearl-street, was founded in 1771. It is supported, with its depen- dencies, by funds from the state, ^22,500 a year; and other incomes amounting to aljout $70,000 a year. The Lunntic Asy- lum, at Bloomingdale, is connected with this institution. The Almshouse estab- lishment, at Bellevue, on the East river, embraces several large and commodious buildings ; and the Long Island Farms, opposite Blackwells Island, where be- tween 600 and 700 poor children are sup- ported and educated. The Institution of the Blind is one of the most interesting among the benevolent institutions. It was incorporated in 1831. According to the report of 1838, the whole number of pupils since the commencement was 77; of whom G4 remained. The pupils are taught music, and to read by raised let- ters, which they do with vcmarkable fa- cility. The arc instructed also in the va- rious brandies of arithmetic, geography, grammar, (Sic, and several of the mechan- ical branches, such as basket-making, carpet-weaving, &c. The state appropria- ted :H;12,000 towards the erection of a new building, on condition that the institution would raise $8,000 ; which has been done, and the building, which is to be a very elegant structure, is ]iartly finished. The Institution for the Deaf and Dumb is also a highly meritorious charity, to which the state appropriates annually about $17,500. The number of pupils is between 140 and 150. Its location is 3* miles from the City Hall, on a plat of 10 acres, 9 of which are leased from the corporation. The Hall of Justice, on centre-street, is a fine massive building, of Egyptian archi- tecture. Among other religious and benevolent institutions, the following deserve partic- ular notice. The American Bible Socie- ty ; American Tract Society ; American Home Missionary Society ; N. Y. Sun- day School Union; General Protestant Episr-opal Sunday School Union ; N. Y. Protestant Episcopal Education and Mis- sionary Society ; Roman Catholic Be- NEW 213 NEW nevolent Society ; Orphan Asylum ; Ed- ucation Socicly of the llefonncd Dutcii Cliurcii ; Foreign Board of Missions of the Reformed Dutcii Ciiurcli ; American and Foreign Bijjle Society, (Baptist ;) American Baptist Home Missionary So- ciety ; Methodist Book Concern ; Bible, Tract, and Sunday School Union of the Methodist Episcopal Church ; American Anti-slavery Society; Roman Catholic Orphan Asylum ; St. Joseph's Catholic Institution, for tiie relief of half orphans. The Afipnsnticcs Lil)rary was estab- lislied in 1H20, by the General Society of Mechanics and Tradesmen, who have also an excellent school. The College of Physicians and Surgeons is in a flourish- ing state. College of Pharmacy, incor- porated in 1831, to prevent impositions and errors in the preparation of medicine — a very meritorious institution. There are four theatres, an opera house, and three principal public gardens for amusement — Niblo's, Vauxhall, and Cas- tle gardens. The Battery, ut the extreme soutii point of the city, is a beautiful pro- menade, favored with the sea breeze, and a delightful prospect of the bay. Wash- ington Square is another public walk, adorned with shade trees. St. John's Park is not open to the public. There are several other squares, but none are open for public resort except the Park. New York is destined to continue, as it now is, the commercial metropolis of the Union. From its central posiiion, its proximity to the sea, and favored with a harbor that can be entered at all seasons, and an extensive inland trade by means of its rivers, canals, and rail roads, its great facilities for commerce arc unrival- led in this country, and perhaps in the world. The amount of duties paid into this port for several years, is as follows : In the year 1830, $15,012,553 183 1, 2(),0;)(J,13(J 1832, 15,070,124 1833, 13,030,181 1834, 10,183,1.52 1835, 14,4(i8,nG 183G, 17,114,305 Previous to the general banking law, passed by the legislature in 1838, the banking capital of tiie city amounted to $16,611,200. Under that law, several banking associations have been establish- ed with large capitals, including a branch of the Pennsylvania Bank of the United StAtes.

They are 17 in numbi'.r; the buildings are large; and convenient,, two stories high, with a basement. Thero are also 28 primary schools, two African public schools, and 6 primary African schools; the whole under the management of the Public School Society, composed of some of the most respectable and be- nevolent individuals. The number of scholars is about 14,500; the number taught for the year ending May 1, 1837, was 17,932 scholars between the ages of 4 and 16 years. The average number in actual attendance was about 10,000; t4io board of trustees arc between 80 and 90 in number, divided into sections, one of which is attached to eacli of tiie buildings. The annual receipts from the Commis- sioners of the School Fund, are from $85,000 to $90,000. Expen.ses for teachers and monitors, about $50,000. Other ex- penses, including building, repairs, fix- tures, fuel, stationery, &c. $10,000. All children have the privilege of attending these schools free of charge, not as cliarity or free schools, but as the common right of all. The teachers are of the highest character for moral worth and mental qualification ; and all the branches of English education are taught. The city is governed by a mayor and common council, consisting of a board of aldermen, and a board of assistant alder- men. Each ward elects an alderman and an assistant. The corporation owns a large real estate, which is constantly in- creasing in value. Besides the sf)lendid lines of packets to Europe, there is now a regular line of steam packets just established between this city and England, the average pas- sages of which are reduced to half the or- dinary time of tiie regular packet ships ; forming a new and important era in steam navigation. The city at present is poorly supplied with water. The principal supply is from the Manhattan Works, and the wells. The corporation have erected reservoirs in 13th street, and laid pipes through the principal streets for the supply NEW 214 NEW of water to extinguish fires only. But it is now engaged in the great work of bringing the waters of the Croton r. 41 m. distant, to the city, in a stone aque- duct The supply of the r. is estimated at from 30 millions (the minimum) to 50 millions of gallons daily. The cost of the work is estimated at |;5,4 12,3,36. The city contained in lG5t), 120 houses. In l(i96,the population was 4,302 ; in 1771, 21,865; in 1786,23,616; in 1790,33,131; in 1800. 60,489; in 1810, 96,373; in 1820, 123,706; in 1825, 166,086; in 1830, 202,589; in 1835, 269,873.

The following is the annual number of deaths for ten years : 1827—5,118 1828—5,118 1829—5,094 1830—5,537 1831—6,363 1832—10,359 1833— 5,746 1834— 9,082 1835— 7,033 1836— 8,009 Of those who died in 1836, 5,721 were natives of the U. States ; 1 ,378 of Ireland ; 313 of England; and 213 of Germany. There are 160 churches in the city, of which 136 have been founded since the year 1800. Of the whole number, there are 38 Presbyterian ; 28 Episcopalian ; 25 Methodist ; 23 Baptist ; 16 Dutch Re- formed ; 7 Catholic; and 23 churches of all the other denominations. There are ten large and five small daily papers; nine semi-weekly, about thirty-two weekly papers, and twenty monthly and quarterly periodicals. ^ MTEW YORK, one of the U. States, bounded N. by Lake Ontario and Canada; E. by Vermont, Massachusetts and Connecticut ; S. by N. Jersey and Pennsylvania; W. by Pennsylvania, Lake Erie, and Niagara r. and NW. by St. Lawrence r. Greatest length E. and W. excluding Long Island, 340 miles ; greatest breadth N. and S. 310 m. Area, excepting the large lakes, 45,650 square m. or 29^219,036 acres.* New York was first explored by Henry Hudson, an English navigator, in the employ of the Dutch East India Compa- ny ; who in 1609, sailed 150 m. up the r. which has taken his name. Settle- ments were made by the Dutch in 1612, at Fort Orange, now Albany, and Fort Am.sterdam, now New York ; and a trade with the natives was established at these *The Comptroller's report of 1837, gives 27,650,358 acres, which does not include the smaller lakes, &c. places. Considerable difficulties existed between the Dutch and the English for some time, the latter disputing the claims of the Dutch to the country ; which how- ever were at length acquiesced in. The territory of the Dutch colony, though not accurately defined, was considered to ex- tend from Fort Goed Hoop, on Connecti- cut r. to Fort Nassau, on Delaware r. In 1664, Charles II. set up anew the Eng- lish claim to the whole country, from Nova Scotia to Delaware bay, and grant- ed it to his brother, the Duke of York and Albany, and immediately despatched a fleet and took possession of it. The name of the colony was changed to New York. On the breaking out of the war between the Dutch and English in 1673, New York fell into the hands of the Dutch, but was restored to the English the next year, by treaty. It now remain- ed a British colony until the revolution in 1776. During the wars with the French, the northern parts of the colony were the scenes of several bloody contests with the French and savages of Canada. In 1790, Vermont, which had before formed part of N. Y. was formed into a separate state. The general surface of the state is ele- vated, having several great basins and valleys formed by the lakes and the large rivers. The Appalachian chain of moun- tains enters the slate from N. Jersey and Pennsylvania, and is broken by the Hud- son r. along whose shores it is called the Highlands. The Cattskill mountains W. of the Hudson, the highest in the state, are from 3,000 to 3,800 feet above the tide. In the N. part of the state is an- other elevated region called the Peruvian mountains, among which are the sources of the Hudson. Their highest summit is near 3,000 feet. The climate is varied by the extent of surface embraced in this state. Along the Hudson as far up as the Highlands, and in the neighborhood of N. Y. city, the climate partaking of the sea air, is milder than in the interior, the winds from the ENE. & SE. generally bringing rain. In the N. parts of the state, above the Highlands, the weather is more se- vere in winter, and snow lays longer. The ice in the Hudson usually breaks up about the lOih or 15th of March. The climate in the middle and western section, though a few degrees colder than in the SE. part, is considerably less so than in the elevated regions in the N. and E. parts of the state. The soil is generally diversified. Along the valley of the Mohawk it is extremely fertile, and productive of wheat, Indian IffiW istb NEW corn, &c. but best adapted to the latter. I A large district extending from Cayuga lake W. including the entire valley of Genesee r> is celebrated for the growth of wheat. Some of the finest flour is sent from this region to the N. Y. market, where it always commands a high price. The E. part of L. Island contains sandy Elains; the W. part is a better soil, and ighly cultivated. The principal pro- ductions of the state are wheat and other grains, beef, pork, pot and j)carl ashes, butter, cheese, lumber, &c. Gypsum is abundant in the W. parts, and extensively used as a manure. Fine marble exists and is manufactured at Sing Sing. In the N. part of the state are large beds of iron ore. Gneiss, granite, limestone, and mica slate are found abundantly in the Highlands and many other parts of the state. There are many mineral springs. Those that have attained most celebrity are in the co. of Saratoga, known as the Saratoga & Ballston Springs, possessing medicinal qualities. 1'liere arc also the New Lebanon and Clifton Springs, the former near the Shaker v. the other near Farmington, Ontario co. Among the natural curiosities are the Niagara Fails; Genesee Falls, on Genesee r. below Ro- chester, about 90 feet perpendicular; Trenton Falls, on West Canada cr. ; Co- hoes Falls, on the Mohawk, near the Hudson ; Glens Falls, on the Hudson, 18 m. above Saratoga; Little Falls, on tlie Mohawk; Jessup's Falls, and Hadley Falls, on the Hudson ; and Claverack Falls, on a stream near the city of Hud- son, and the suljlinie and picturesque cascades of the Catskill mountain. The principal rivers are the Hudson, Mohawk, Genesee, Niagara, St. Law- rence, Black, Oswegatchie, Oswego, Sa- ranac, and Tioga, a branch of the Sus- quehannah. The principal lakes are Erie, Ontario, and Champlain, which border on the state, lakes George, Oneida, Cayuga, Seneca, Crooked, Canandaigua, and Skaneateies. The principal cities and towns are New York, Albany, Brooklyn, Troy, Buffalo, Rochester, Utica, Schenectady, Poughkeepsie, Newburg, Hudson, Platts- burgh, Catskill, Geneva, Syracuse, Can- andaigua, Auburn, Lockport, Lansing- burg, Ithaca, Skaneateies, and Penn Yan. The commerce of the state principally centres at N. York city, which is the great seaport of the Union. The situa- tion of the state is admirably adapted for an extensive and increasing trade. Its noble river, the Hudson, connected as it is with lakes Champhiin and Erie, by canals, must continually pour in the vast resources not only of the interior and N. part of the state, but of the great and growing states of the west. The following table will best exhibit the general statistics of the state, includ- ing the number of manufactories of the various kinds, and their increase or de- crease in 10 years, from 1825 to 1835. 1825. 1835.

The above table shows that the number of acres improved within the preceding ten years is 2,399,378 ; the whole quaiiti- ty returned as improved is about one-third the area of the whole state. But the number of acres under actual cultivation i is probably not over one-fifth. The num- ' ber of inhabitants to the square mile is about 47 62-100. In 1825, there were about 37 inhabitants to the square mile. The number of cattle of every descrip- tion has increased in ten years 1,399,628. The decrease in domestic cotton and wool- len manufactures is attributed to the in- crease of these manufactures in the coun- try generally, and the reduced prices at which they can be purchased. It is exceedingly gratifying to notice the decreased nuinber of dldilleries, from 2,129 in 1825 to 693 in 1835— being a de- crease of 1,413 in ten years, or 141 year- ly. This evidence of moral improvement is undoubtedly to be attributed to the salu- tary influence of the temperance reforma- tion. The following table exhibits the popu- lation at the drfferent periods when a census was taken. In 1700 it was estima- ted at 30,000; in 1775 at 238,000 inhabi- tants. No census was taken before 1790. 2,051 6,948 71 965 1,061 111 234 293 141 337 693 13 63 2 24 15 69 70 412 94 Decrease. 1,753 213 50 266 524 23 792 1,413 Value of Value of material, produce. 17,687,009 3,651,153 214,813 1,994,491 2,179,414 1,630,352 lj450,825 2,366,065 168,896 2,278,420 434,394 163,312 464,394 20,871 63,119 1,999,000 95,693 358,857 3,563,592 916,252 20,140,435 6,881,055 275,574 2,891,096 2,651,638 3,030,709 2,433,192 4,349,949 363,581 3,098,042 726,418 448,559 980,083 28,625 95,446 2,465,600 110,025 685,784 5,598,626 1,381,446 The following table gives the popula- tion of counties for 1830 and 1835 : Year.

The state of New York, while making such rapid advances in the improvement of her physical condit'lon, has not neglect- ed to provide liberally the means of edu- cation. And nothing is now needed but a corresponding interest on the part of the people, in behalf of their colleges and schools, to give her a moral and mental elevation corresponding with her com- manding destiny. The following is a list of the colleges and theological semi- naries : Columbia College, (Episcopalian,) in New York, founded in 1754. Union, in Schenectady, founded 1795. Hamilton, in Clinton, founded 1812. Hamilton Lite- rary and Theological, (Baptist,) in Ham- ilton, founded 18l9. Geneva, (Episcopa- lian,) ill Geneva, founded 1823. Univer- sity of New York, in New York, founded 1831. Theological Institute of the Epis- copal Cliurch, in New York, commenced operation 1819. New York Theological Seminary, in New York. Theological Seminary of Auburn, (Presbyterian,) commenced 1821. Hartwick Seminary, Otsego county, (Lutheran,) commenced 1816. Theological Seminary of the As- sociate Reformed Church, Newburg, com- menced 1836. Nyack College, (Catholic,) 30 m. N. of New York, on the Hudson. College of Physicians and Surgeons, in New York. Geneva Medical College. Poughkeepsie Collegiate School. 19 In addition to these, there are in the state 64 incorporated academies, each drawing an income from the Literature Fund. The Albany Academy, and the two Albany Female Seminaries, stand de- servedly high. A department has been established in one academy in each of the eight Senate Districts, for the education of common school teachers. The number of students in these departments was, in 1835, 108 : in 1836, 218 ; in 1837, 284 ; at an ex- pense of $3,200, or $400 for each depart- ment. The number of School Districts in the state, reported by the superintendent in Jan. 1838, for the year 1836, was 10,345, from 9,718 of which reports were receiv- ed. The number of new districts formed during the year was 138. The schools were kept an average period of seven months. Whole number of children be- tween the ages of 5 and 16 years, 536,882. Whole number taught, 524,188. Amount of public money distributed to the districts in 1837, $342,811. Amount paid for teachers' wages besides public money, $436,346. Of the public money raised in 1836, $119,332 was received from the state and local funds, and $216,562 was raised by tax in the several towns. A new school law was passed April 17, 1838, appropriating an additional an- nual sum of $110,000 to the common schools ; also, $55,000 annually for three years towards the purchase of a library in each district. Each school is required to be taught at least four months by an inspected teacher.

There are 6,217i acres of land attached to the poor-houses. The value of tho poor-house establish- ments is estimated at $1,433, 775. Of the nunnber relieved or supported during the year, there were 6,874 foreigners ; 786 lunatics ; 271 idiots ; and 77 deaf and dumb. There are two state prisons, one at Mount Pleasant, or Sing Sing, the other at Auburn, each under the direction of five inspectors, who report annually to the Legislature. All convicts are kept at hard labor during the day, and are con fined in separate cells at night. Such is the efiiciency and economy in the manage- ment oi" the prisons, that the income from the labor of the convicts exceeds the ex penses — so that they are no longer a bur den to the state. Of 747 persons in the Auburn prison, 311 had a very poor edu- cation, and 203 were unable to read the Bible — well educated, only 12. Of the same number, 561 were intemperate before conviction, 177 were temperate drinkers, and only 9 total abstinents. The Legislature is composed of a Sen- ate of 32 members, who are elected for four years, eight being chosen annually one from each senatorial district, and a House of Representatives consisting of 128 members. The pay of each member is three dollars a day. The Lievtt. Gov- ernor, and President of the Senate, re- ceives six dollars a day during the ses sion. The Governor is elected for two years He receives an annual salary of S4,000, is provided with a dwelling house, and receives for postage and other contingent expenses, $750. His private secretary receives $600 per annum. The Secretary of State is also Super- intendent of Schools, and receives for his services $1,750 per annum. The Comptroller has charge of the fis- cal concerns of the stale, and receives $2,500 a year. The Canal Commission- ers each receive $2,000 a year. The Treasurer receives $1,500, and the Depu- ty Secretary of State, $1,500. The Chancellor and justices of the Su- preme Court receive $2,500 a year each. The eight Circuit Judges receive each $1,600. There were in 1837, (according to Wil- liams,) attorneys and counsellors, 2,161 ; practising physicians and surgeons, 2,876; clergy of different denominationsi, 2,192. Internal Improvements. — The success- ful issue of the great system of internal improvements commenced in New York about 21 years ago, has not only had in- fluence upon her own pros.perity, but upon the whole nation. The Erie Canal, one of the greatest works of the kind in the world, was commenced on the 4th July, 1817, and completed in 1825. The prin- cipal canals, except the Delaware & Hud- son, have been constructed by the state. The rail roads have been undertaken by incorporated companies. The Mohawk & Hudson Rail Road was the first con- structed in the state. It was commenced in 1830, and completed in 1833. Tlie Erie Canal, from Albany to Buf- falo, 363 m. long.

Total, 109 m'iles; cost, S"-^,231,820. A rail road, 16 miles, is connected with it. There have been 133 rail road compa- nies incorporated from the year LS-2() to 1837, with a capital of about ^55,000,000. Many of them, it is probable, will never be constructed. The following rail roads are completed or under way : — Mohawk & Hudson Rail Road— IG m. long ; completed in 1833. Saratoga & Schenectady Rail Road — 22 m. long ; completed in 1832.

NIAGARA Falls, a stupendous cata- ract in the Niagara r. at which the waters fall perpendicularly 164 feet on the Amer- ican side, and 170 feet on the Canada side. The roar of the falls is heard 15 m. and at times from 30 to 40 m. Goat Island divides the falls into two unequal parts, and is connected with the American shore by a bridge. The W. side of the falls presents an irregular arch, called the Horse-shoe Fall. A staircase is con- structed from Goat Island to the i-ocks be- low, by which the spectator may approach some distance under the arch formed by the fiilling waters. Splendid and com- modious hotels are erected in the neigh- borhood of the falls ; which in the sum- mer season are crowded with visiters, who come from all parts of the country to view this most sublime spectacle in the world of the kind. NIAGARA R. in the W. part of N. Y. forming part of the boundary between N. Y. and U. Canada. It is the channel for the waters of L. Erie flowing into L. Ontario. For the first 7 m. it is from half a m. to a m. in width. The r. is di- vided into two channels by Grand Island, below which it is one m. in width. Its width diminishes for 3 m. to about three- quarters of a m. to the great cataract. The whole length of the r. to L. Ontario, is 35 miles ; tiie entire foil, 336 feet. NIAGARA, t. Niagara co.

SJORTH CiLHOI.IUA, one of the United States, hounded N. by Virginia, E. I)y the Atlantic, S. by South Carolina and Georgia, and W. by Ten- nessee. Its extreme length from E. to W. (not including Cape Hatteras,) is 480 m. Its extreme i)readth, N. and S. 185 m. Area about 50,000 square m. The first attempt to colonize the Caro- linas was made by the French in the reign of Cliarlcs IX. from whom the name was derived, which was defeated by the Span- iards. Sir Walter Raleigh visited the country in 1584, and in the following year another attempt to settle it was made, but NOR 322 NOR no traces of the settlers were ever nflcr discovered, having; been, in all probiibili- ty, iTinnlercd by the Indiuns. In l(il(), several settlements were made by a ninn- ber of persons who left Virg;inia on ac- count of religious persecutions. In l(ir)l), a small colony from Massacl\nselts estab- lished themselves on the banks of Cape Fear r. and left the country in l(i(!!{. At this time other sctllemenls were made, and the plan of gov(-rninent afterwards ailcjit- cd by the colony embraced the scheme of the celel)raled Jolm Locke. There was an hereditary nobility, and the cliief magistrate was called the Palatine. The ])lan was abandoned as impracticable in l&Xi. In 1717, the colony came vmder tiie royal ii;overinnent, as tlie other colo- nies were, and remained so imtil the revo- lution. In 1729 it was separated from S. Carolina, with wliicli it had always been united. The present constitution was adovited in 177(), and amended in IS:].'). The surface of tlie stale in the E. sec- tion is an extensive phiin, with consider- able swam])s, nvid generally poorland, ex- cept on the margin of the rivers, wliich is very fertile. In the middle section liie land is more hilly, and the W. limit is marked by a range of the 7\ppalachian system, which lak(^ the n.ames of Yellow, Iron, Smoky and Unaka Mountains. The Blue Ridge forms a parallel range, from 15 to 35 m. E. The soil in thi^ VV. part of the state is the most fertile, and the country in gen(^ral very biautiful. The climate is tempcn-ate and heidthy. In the E. parts it is unliealtiiy in the summer season, being subject to prevailing bilious and intermittent fevers. The winters arc mild and agreeable. Immense regions of the cotnUry are covered with pitch pine, affcnding large quantities of tar and turponline lor ex- port. Indian corn and other small grains are raised in considerable ipianlilies. Cotton, rice and tobacco are also produc- ed. There are very few harbors on the coast, and much of the trade finds its way into Virginia and SoiUii ('arolina. liUm- ber, grain, (lour and jirovisions are arti- cles of export. Iron on-, abounds in many parts of the static, but very little is doiu^ in manuiae- turing it. The gold mines have attracted great attention. The gold region embra- ces about 1,000 square miles. Part of the gold is obtained by mining, and part by washing the sand ,uid gravel (bund in the gullies and beds of creeks. In IK-Jl^ this State furnished for the U. S. mint, gold to the value of !H^5,0!)0 ; in lH«i5, *i7,()()0; in 1H21), ift'lSl.OOO; in 1H:5-3, iil;15H,(K)0; in 1831, ;}f3R0,000; in 1R35, ltliOr.3,500; in IKiO, fMH.lOO: total amount to 1K36, ,i)^"3, 1(>5,0()0 — besides which, large quanti- ties have been exported and otherwise dis- jxised of Since 1H33 the quantity has annually decreased. There are a number of cotton manufac- tories, which are rapidly increasing. The first in the slate was established in 1818, at the falls of Tar r. in Edgecombe co. The principal rivers of the slate are the Roanoke, Chowan, Cape Fear, Pamlico, Tar, Neuse and Yadkin. The chief towns arc Ncwbern, Fay- etteville, Wilmington, and Raleigh, the .seal of government. The principal sounds and bays are Pamlico Sound and Allx'nnirle Soimd, and Onslow and Raleigh bays. Tho prominent capes arc Fear, Lookout and i I altera s. The Legislature is composed of a Sen- ate of 50 nu'inbers, and a 1 buise of Com- mons of 120 representatives, who arc chosen for two years. The Legislature meets biennially. Tlic governor is also chosen for two years, anil cannot hold his ollice m(n'(! than ibur years out of any term of six years. His salary is ;H^2,0t)0. There is a literary fund for the sup[iort of connnon schools, consisting of swamp lands, esliinaled al 1,.'')()0,000 acres, valu- ed at ;ffi ,000,000, lo which has been ad.led bom the IJ. S. smplus fund, f 1,000,000, and the future dividends from works of intenud improvement. The colleges in the state are, the Uni- versity of North Carolina, at Chapel Hill, founded in 17!)1, coiUaining H instructors, I'M) students, and 5,000 volumes in tho library. l)avidson (College, at iVIeckhni- burg, founded in lri37. Besides these, there are the Episco[)al School at Raleigh; JVlanual Labor School at Fayetteville ; ]Vlamu\l liabor School nt Wake Forest, and tli(^ l''enude Seminary at Salem.

OHIO R. from which the state is nam- ed, is formed by the confluence of the Al- leghany and Monongahela at Pittsbui'g, in the W. part of Pa. After a course of 908 m. it flows into the Mississippi. Its breadth varies from 400 to 1,400 yards. Below Cumberland r. its average width is over a mile. At Cincinnati it is 800 yards, which is its mean breadth. The elevation of the Ohio at Pittsburg is 678 feet, and at its junction with the Missis- sippi r. at low water, 283 — having a fall of 395 feet in its entire length. The cur- rent of the river is gentle, and varies from two to four miles an hour. The only ob- struction in general to navigation is the rapids at Louisville, where there is a ca- nal to avoid them. The river is naviga- ble for large steamboats half the year through its entire course. Its lou'est stage is in September, and in March it is at its highest. Its depth varies at the diflerent periods about fifty feet, and sometimes rises 10 or 12 feet in a single night. The Ohio flows through a fine, rich country, and from the beauty of the stream was called by the French discoverers " la belle riviere." OHIO, one of the United States, bounded N. by Lake Erie and the state of Michiean, E. by Pennsylvania and Vii'- ginia, S. by Virginia and Kentucky, and W. by Indiana. It is aliout 220 m. long by 220 broad, contains 44,000 square m. and returns KJ, 400,000 acres for taxation. The territory now forming the state, OHI S •w-as embraced in 1787 as part of the " ter- ritory northwest of the river Ohio." The first settlers were 47 emigrants, under Gen. Rufus Putnam and Rev. Menas- seh Cutler, from the counties of Middle- sex and Essex, Mas. vi^ho established themselves at Marietta, at the mouth of Muskingum r. on the 7th of April, 1788. The next year another settlement was made on the Ohio, 6 m. above the site of Cincinnati. The inhabitants were much exposed to hostilities from the Indians for a number of years, which were not effec- tually stopped until they were subdued by Gen. Wayne in 1795. From this period the settlement and prosperity of the terri- tory have been unexampled. In 1802, it Was admitted into the Union as an inde- pendent state, and in 1830 it was the fourth state in population in the Union. In 1790, the population was 3,000; in 1800, 45,305 ; in 1810, 230,760 ; in 1820, 581,434 ; in 1830, 935,872. Of this last number there were deaf and dumb, 426 ; blind, 232 ; free colored persons, 9,567. The general surface of the state is re- markably level, exhibiting a moderate elevation of table land, but no mountains nor any considerable hills. The soil is very fertile, and the greater portion of the state fit for cultivation. Indian corn is raised in great abundance, and may be considered the staple. Hemp, flax and •obacco can also be raised in considerable quantities. Taken as a whole, there is no section of country in the world per- haps equally productive. Coal and iron are abundant in the eastern parts of the state. Marble is found m many places, and salt springs are numerous. The cli- mate is generally mild, and warmer than Other parts of the country in the same latitude. Except in the neighborhood of the marshes and flats, it is very healthy. Among the curiosities are the numerous ancient mounds scattered over various parts of the state. Their origin is very uncertain. Some of them are from 40 to 70 feet high, with a level area of 40 feet diameter at the top, and a circumference at the base of 400 to 500 feet. There are also numerous ancient fortifications of a circular form. The principal rivers are the Ohio, which forms the entire S. boundary of the state, Muskingum, Scioto, Gt. Miami, Lit. Mi- ami, Maumee, Cuyahoga and Sandusky. The principal cities and towns are Cin- cinnati, Cleaveland, Zanesvillc, Colum- S OHI extensive lines of canals, must always secure to her enterprize a great and in ' creasing commerce. There are a number of large cotton and woollen manufactories, and a great quan- tity of domestic goods are made. The Legislature consists of a Senate and House of Representatives. Senators are chosen for two years, and representa- tives annually. The governor is elected for two years. His salary is S1|000. Among the institutions of learning are the following : — University of Ohio, at Athens, founded 1821 ; has 2,000 volumes in the library. Miami University, at Oxford, founded 1824 ; 4,000 volumes in the library. Franklin College, at New Athens, founded 1825; 1,100 volumes in the library. Western Reserve College, at Hudson, founded 1826 ; 2,000 volumes in the hbrary. Kenyon College, at Gam- bier, founded 1828 ; 2,300 volumes in the library. Granville College, at Granville, founded 1832 ; 3,000 vols, in the library. Marietta College, at Marietta, founded 1832 ; 2,500 vols, in the library. Oberlin Institute, at NewElyria ; Cincinnati Col- lege ; Woodward College, at Cincinnati, and Willoughby University, at Chagrin. There are theological departments in Kenyon, Granville and Western Reserve Colleges ; Lane Theolog. Seminary, and a theological school at Columbus. There is also a medical college at Cincinnati. The state has a considerable fund de- voted to common school instruction. An excellent system has been established, and great efforts are being made to improve it as much as possible. The lands set apart for the school fund amount to over half a million of acres, some of which have been sold, and some let out on lease. Internal Iiwproiements.^-Thc astonish- ing and rapid growth and prosperity of the state of Ohio, is equalled only by her magnificent works of internal improve- ment. It is only thirty-six years since she was admitted as a state into the Un- ion, and now there are near 500 miles of navigable canal finished and in operation, and about 200 miles of canal and 100 miles slack water navigation under con- tract to be finished in 1839. There are also other canals and river improvements projected, which will soon swell the amount of inland navigation in this young state to upwards of 1,000 miles. The Ohio Canal extends from Cleave- land, on Lake Erie, to Portsmouth on bus, the capital, Chillicothe, Steubenville, {the Ohio; length, 307 m.; commenced Dayton and Cireleville. 1 1825, finished 1832. There is a navigable Ohio is admii;ably situated for trade. ] feeder to Zanesville, 14 m. ; one to Co- Her central position, her noble rivers and 1 lumbus, 10 m. ; and one to Lancaster, 9 m. i;o OIL 230 OLD The Miami Canal, to extend from Cin- cinnati via Dayton, the valleys of St. Mary's and Auglaize rivers, to Defiance, on Maumee r. where it will unite with the Wabash and Erie Canal ; is finished to St. Mary's. The distance by this route from Cincinnati to Lake Erie is 265 m. The portion of the Wabash and Erie Canal which is in this state, is under con- tract. This Canal is to extend from La- fayette, on the Wabash in Indiana, to near the entrance of the Maumee r. into Lake Erie. 105 m. in Indiana, and 82 m. in Ohio — total length, 187 m.

Greatest length E. and W. 305 m. — breadth, 160 m. — containing about 46,500 square m. The territory was first settled by some Swedes in 1628, which was afterwards broken up by the Dutch from New York, whose settlements were also in turn seized by the English. In 1681, William Penn, a Gluaker, who was the son of Admiral Sir Wm. Penn, obtained a grant from Charles 11. for the territory, includinff Delaware, and immediately commenced the settlement of it. He arrived at New Castle in 1682, and fixed the site of Phila- delphia as the capital, then called Coal quanock, and laid out that city. In 1799 Delaware became a distinct colony. The settlement for 70 years was happily free from all disturbances with the Indians, which marked the early history of the other colonies. In 1718, Penn died in England, aged 74. The original charter continued until after the revolution. In 1790, a constitution was established, which continued until 1838, when a new constitution was formed. Most of the central part of the state is mountainous. The Alleghanies, of the Appalachian chain, extend in a number of ridges in aNE. course — the nearest on the E. being about 150 to 170 miles from the sea. They are known by various names, the Kittatiny or Blue Mountains, . Tuscarora Mountains, Ragged Moun- tains, Great Warrior Mountain, Laurel Hill and the Alleghany Mountains, which are the highest elevations. Most of these mountains are thickly covered with wood. E. and W. of the mountain ranges, the country is level or moderately undulating, and the soil fertile and productive in wheat and all kinds of grains and fruits. The climate E. and W. of the moun- tains does not sensibly differ from that of other sections in the same parallels of latitude. In the mountainous regions, the winters are colder, and the snow lays longer and deeper. The principal rivers are the Delaware, Susquehannah, Alleghany, Monongahe- la, Yioughiogeny, Kiskiminetas, Juniata, Schuylkill and Lehigh. The most important towns are Phila- delphia, Pittsburg, Lancaster, Reading, Harri.'sburg, the capital, Easton, Bethle- hem, Norristown, Columbia, Doylestown and Germantown. Pennsylvania is a great manufacturing state. The principal manufactories .-ire in Philadelphia and Pittsburg and their neighborhoods. The most extensive are of cotton, wool, iron, glass and paper. Salt is manuf:\ctured largely from springs in the W. part of tiie state. The foreign commerce of the state cen- tres nearly altogether at Philadelphia. The value of imports is from S12,00(),000 to ^15,000,000 annually ; of exports, from PEN 241 PEN 84,000,000 to ^5,000,000; the tonnage about 100,000. Anthracite coal abounds more exten- sively in this state than any other in the Union. TJie coal region lies principally among the mountains which run parallel to the Blue Ridge, between that ridge and the Susquehannah, and along the valleys of the Wyoming and Lackawanna. The valley of the anthracite region is about 60 miles long, and 5 to G broad. The coal beds vary in thickness from 3 feet to 26, and are most extensive in the vicinity of Maucli Chunk, on the Lehigh. In the W. part of the state, bituminous coal is equally abundant. It is found along the Alleghany, Monongahela and Conemaugh rs. and elsewhere. In the neighborhood of Pittsburg it is very plen- tiful. A committee of the Pennsylvania Le- gislature, in 1836, estimated the improve- ments connected with the anthracite coal trade to be, canals and rail roads, 486 miles, ^•9,7'20,937 ; colliers' boats, cars, &c. S1,270,2.S0; capital in coal lands, $4,900,000; mining capital and value of towns, S3,375,000: total, $19,166,217. The bituminous coal lands are supposed to comprehend 21,000 square miles, and the anthracite 975 square miles. The number of tons of anthracite coal shipped from the Schuylkill, Lehigh and Lacka- wanna mines, from 1820 to 1835, was 2,498,024. In the bituminous coal region are also found many valuable salt springs, which, by boring, produce a strong solution. The Legislature is composed of a Sen- ate and House of Representatives. Sen- ators are chosen for four years^ and the representatives annually. The governor is chosen for three years, and has a salary of $4,000. Among the institutions of learning are the following: — University of Pennsyl- vania, at Philadelphia; Carlisle College; Jefferson College, atCanonsburg ; Wash- ington CoUego; Alletrhany College, at Meadville ; Western University, at Pitts- burg ; Pennsylvania College, at Gettys- burg ; Lafayette College, at Easton ; Haddington College; Marshall College, at Morcersljurg; Medical Department in the University of Pennsylvania; Med- ical Department, Jefferson College, Phila- delphia. Of the theological seminaries, there are — The Seminary of the Lutlieran Church of ihe U. S. at Gettysburg; Ger- man Reformed, at York; Western Theo- logical Seminary, at Alleghany; Theo- logical School, atCanonsburg; Theolo- gical Seminary, at Pittsburg. 21 The system of common schools embra- ces about 3,400 district schools, 3,500 teachers, and 150,000 scholars. The whole number of children in the state be- tween 5 and 15 is about 330,000. About $200,000 annually of public money is ap- propriated to the schools. The public schools of Philadelphia are not includ- ed in the above. The state has a peni- tentiary at Philadelphia, and one at Pitts- burg.

She has already upwards of 600 miles of state canals and 120 miles of rail roads in operation, which, with those in course of construction, will make, when completed, by the state and incorporated companies, 1,192 miles of canals, and 726 miles of rail roads — all undertaken since 1826 ; an achievement that would reflect honor upon the enter- prize of any nation in the world. The Pennsylvania state canals and rail roads consist of the following divis- ions : Columbia Rail Road, from Phila- delphia to Columbia, 81 i miles ; Canal — eastern division, Columbia to HoUidays- burg, 171? ; Alleghany Portage Rail Road, Hollidaysburg to Johnstown, 36f ; Canal — v/estcrn division, Johnstown to Pittsburg, 105 : total, 395 miles. The Beaver Canal extends from Bea- ver to New Castle, 25 miles long. The Mahonning and Beaver Canal is to extend from JNew Castle, Pa. to the Ohio Canal at Akron, O. The Pittsburg and Erie Canal, of which the Beaver Canal is a section, is to extend from Pittsburg to Lake Erie, 73i miles. The following canals have been con- structed by incorporated companies: — Schuylkill, 108 miles; cost $2,.500, 176. Union Canal, 80 miles, and navigable feeders, 24 miles — total, 104 miles; cost $2,000,000. Lehigh, 46i m. ; 53 m. cost $1,558,000. Lackawaxen, 25 miles, and rail road ; cost $2,000,000.

SW. from New York; '20(1 SW. from Bofiton; !(8 E. from Harrisburg, and \'M> m. NE. from Washington City. N. lat. 39° 50' 51". W. Ion. 75-^ 10' O.V from Greenwich. The city is handsomely laid out on the W. bank of Delaware r. ex- tending ii m. to the Si^liulykill, about 3 m. along the Delaware, and about 5 m. above the eonllui'nre of those rivers. Piiiladelpliia was founded by William Penn, in l()8-2, and chartered in 1701. The streets of the city proper, (excluding the Liberties,) are laid out at right angles, generally about 50 ffct wide— and kept remarkably clean. The houses are most- ly of brick, of a neat, and many of them an elegant appearance. Among the pub- lic buildings ure the United States Bank, 21* U. S. Mint, State House, Girard Bank, Bank of Pimnsylvania, and Permsylva- nia Hospital. In the vicinity are Girard's College, the Alms House, and Naval Asy- lum. The IJ. S. Bank is a beautiful mar- ble structure, with 8 dcnic columns in front and 8 in the rear— built after the model of the Parthenon. The Girard (Jollege is a most inagnificentbuilding, of marble, sup- ported on all sides by Corinthian pillars. Connected with it are two chaste and commodious buildings, also of marble. 'I'he Mint, tlie I'^X(;hange, Pennsylvania Bank, (:«irard Bank, and Masonic Hall, are also beautiful buildings. Religious, benevolent, and literary institutions are numerous. There ure upwards of 100 houses for public; worship. Among the i;liaritable and benevolimt institutions arc th(! Asylums for orphans, deaf and dumb, widows and lunatics, Humane Society, and several Dispensaries. Among the literary institutions are the University, Philosophical Society, Athnjneum, Frank- lin Institute, Academy of Natural Science, Academy of Fine Arts, Medical Society, College of Pharma(;y, College of Physi- cians, &c. In the States House, which is now occupied by the Courts, is the Hall in which Congress sat when the Declara- tion of Independence; was adojjted. The Arcade, a beautiful building, contains the Philadelphia Museum, long known as Peale's Museum. I'he Market Houses in Market street, reach from Frrmt to Eighth streets. 'I'here are several other markets in difTerent parts of the town. They ure all kept clean, and are well sup- plied with all kinds of farming produce. The public squares arc beautifully adorn- ed with shade trees. One of the greatest undertakings in Pliiladclphia is the water works on the Schulykill, at Fair Mount. A' dam is thrown across the river, which affords f)ower sufficient for the nuudiincry which ibrci's the water into large basins on the top of the Mount, from which the city is sufiplied by pipes laid in every street, extending over 00 miles in length. The entire cost, including the former works, is about Ift;!,. 500,000. The expense of the works is only aljoul.^'l a day. Philadelphia is a very extensive manu- facturing city. All the various branches of mechanic industry are carried on with great skill and jjerfiuUion. Altliough en- joying an extensive commerce, its inland position is not so favorable in this respect as Ihiit of New York or Boston. For a considerable part of the winter the Dela- ware is cIosihI with ice. Philadelphia is distinguished for its PHI 246 PHI seminaries of education and the literary spirit of its inhabitants. Besides tlae pub- lic schools, which are the pride of the city, private sciiools are numerous and of the highest character. The Society of Friends, who form a large and highly respectable class of the inhabitants, are noted for their attention to their schools and institutions of learning and science. Their children are educated particularly in the solid and useful branches. The various benevolent operations also owe much of their active usefulness and energy to members of this society. In the Philadelphia public and lorimary schools there are annually taught about 12,000 scholars. The Philadelphia Library, founded by Dr. Franklin, contains 45,000 volumes. The Philadelphia Society Library con- tains 10,000 volumes. There are several other very respectable libraries, and vari- ous literary institutions for mutual im- provement, which have a favorable influ- ence on the general character of its society. Population of the city and liberties, in 1731, 1-2,000; in 1790, 42,520; in ISOO, 70,280; in 1810,92,247; in 1820, 108,116; in 1830, 107,811 ; of which the city pro- per contained 80,458 ; the northern suburbs 58,350 ; the southern suburbs 29,003.

RED R. of Lake Winnipeg, rises near the sources of the Mississippi r, and flows northerly 170 m, into the S. end of the lake. RED R. one of the principal tributaries of the Mississippi, rises at the base of the Rocky Mountains, near Santa Fe. The False Washita and Blue rs. are the main branches for near 400 m. It forms the boundary between the territory of the U. States and Texas, from 17^ 45' to 23° W. from Washington. Entering the state of Ark. it flows S. into La. and in a south- easterly direction, until it enters the Mis- sissippi r. in lat. 31° N. Much of its course is through rich and beautiful prairies of red soil, covered with grass, and vines of delicious grapes. About 100 m. above Natchitoches, commences the Raft — a broad swampy expansion of 20 or 30 m. in width. The r. here dividing into nu- merous shallows, becomes covered and obstructed with the masses of drift wood borne from the upper streams. Boats sometimes pass through these obstruc- tions, and are often obliged to follow a stream into a distant lake, and pass into the r. below the Raft through the outlet. The r. is thus impeded for about 60 or 70 m. But for this, steamboats could ascend to the delightful region of country above it. The valley of the r. for a great dis- tance above its mouth, is from 6 to 18 m. wide, and of superior fertility. Cotton is the staple. The whole length of this noble r. is estimated at 2,500 m.

RHODE ISIiAN-D, one of the United Slates, bounded N. and E. by Massachusetts, S. by the Atlantic, and W. by Connecticut. Mean length from N. to S. about 42 miles; mean breadth, about 29 miles ; area 1,225 square m. It is the smallest state in the Union. The surface of the country is generally level, except in the NW. part, which is hilly and broken. The soil is best adapt- ed to grazing; but the island of Rhode Island is fertile, and productive in all kinds of grain. The rivers and bays af- ford a great variety of excellent fish. Iron abounds in considerable quantities. Cop- per is also found. The principal streams are the Providence, Pawtucket and Paw- t\ixet rs. Narraganset Bay extends from S. to N. over 30 miles into the state, and contains a number of islands, among which are Rhode Island, Conanicut, Prudence, Patience, and Hope islands. Block Island lies 10 m. S. of the coast, in the ocean. The climate is mild and salu- brious. The principal towns are Providence, Newport, Bristol, Warwick, and Paw- tucket. The principal commercial and manu- facturing interests centre in Providence and the neighborhood. There are large manufactures of cotton, woollen, &c. at Providence, Pawtucket, Warwick, and Slatersville. The General Assembly meets usually four times a year, at Providence, New- port, East Greenwich, and South Kings- ton. Rhode Island has no written con- stil.ition, but retains the forms prescribed by the charter originally granted by Charles II. in 1663. There are about 650 common schools in the state, and 26,000 children of a suit- able age for instruction. The legislature approjn-iates annually S10,000 for the sup- port of the schools; and this amount is mcrcased by taxes laid in the towns. Brown University is the only college in the state. It was founded in 1764 at Warren, and removed to Providence in 1770. The principal religious denominations are Baptists, Methodists, and Congrega- tional ists. Rhode Island was first settled at Provi- RIC 263 RIG denco, by Roger Williams, a minister who was obliged to leave the colony of Plymouth on account of his religious opinions. His followers soon increased, and a patent for the territory and permis- sion to establish an independent govern- ment was obtain-^d from the Plymouth Company, in 1G44. The first General Assembly met in 1G47. Internal ImprovcToenls i — Blackstone Canal — extends from Providence to Wor- cester, Mas. — 45 miles ; finished in 1828 ; cost S(500,000. New York, Providence, and Boston Rail Road — extends from Providence to Stonington, Ct. — 47 m. long; of which about 40 m. are in Rhode Island. The Boston and Providence Rail Road is chiefly in Mas. Population :— in 1790, 68,825; 1800, 69,122 ; 1810, 76,931 ; 1820, 83,059 : 1830, 97,212. RHODE ISLAND, an island in Narraganset Bay, R. I. which gives name to the state. It is 15 m. long N. & S. and 3j wide. It is a beautiful, fertile, and healthy spot, and a frequent resort for invalids from the south. A consider- able portion of it is used for grazing sheep and neat cattle. The other parts are in a high state of cultivation. It contains the townships of Newport, Middletown, and Portsmouth.

The situation of , Richmond is healthy and agreeable. The houses are generally of brick, and have a neat appearance. The State House is justly admired for its architectural beauty. Among the places of public worship, is the Monumcnlal Church, erected on the epot where the Richmond Theatre was burnt on the 26th Dec. 1811, at which the Governor of Va. and 71 other persons lost their lives. This city has considera- ble commerce and manufactures.

Y. situated on both sides of Genesee r. 7 m. S. of Lake Ontario, 73 E. of Buffalo, 219 W. of Albany, and 361 N. of Wash- ington City. The public buildings are a court house, fourteen churches, an arcade, two market houses, three banks, and six fine hotels. The arcade is 100 feet front, 135 deep, and six stories high. The 1st Presbyterian and St. Paul's (Episcopal) churches are fine buildings. There are three bridges across the river, and a new aqueduct is now being erected for the Erie Canal. Rochester owes its rise and greatness to the vast water power supplied by the Genesee r. Within the city limits the fall of the river is 268 feet. There are 22 large flouring mills with 100 run of stones, averaging 500,000 barrels of flour a year. There are also a number of manufacto- ries and saw mills. Besides a large and increasing commerce by Lake Ontario, its internal trade through the Erie Canal IS very extensive. Several of the lines of canal boats are owned here. In a few years, Rochester will also be connected with Albany and Buffalo by rail roads, ■which are now in a rapid course of con- struction. No city west of New York enjoys more of the substantial advantages of prosperity. Carthage, on the Genesee r. 2 m. below Rochester, and within its limits, is the port at which vessels and steamboats arrive. A rail road extends from Rochester to Carthage, and it is pro- f)osed to continue it to Port Genesee on the ake. There are several literary institutions, and a large number of respectable schools j two Institutes for the promotion of edu- cation, and the Franklin Institute and Athseneum. There are 7 printing offices and six newspapers, two of which are daily. Rochester was founded in 1812, by Nathaniel Rochester, Wm.Fitzhugh, and Charles Carroll of Maryland, from the first of whom it took its name. It was incorporated as a village in 1817, and as a city 28th April, 1834. It includes an area of 4,324 acres. Pop. in 1820, 1,502; 1830, 9,269 ; 1835, 14,404. ROCHESTER, t. & v. Ulster co. N. Y.

In lat. 47® they are covered •with snow in July. Frequent explosions and a loud rumbling noise are heard by trappers who visit them, supposed to be volcanic. Their appearance is dark, steril, and rugged. Some of the peaks are 12 to 18,000 feet high. Lewis and Clarke suffered greatly in crossing these mountains. On their return, in May, the snow was 10 feet deep. Captain Pike, in attempting to explore the southern parts ■was completely bewildered in the snows and precipices, and lost a number of his party. Their geological structure, as far as known, appears to be granite. ROCKY Ridge, p. o. Hancock co. O. ROCKY Spring, p. o. Rockingham co. N. C. ROCKY Spring, v. Claiborne co.Mis. ROCKY Spring, v.

TENNESSEE R. an important tribu- tary of the Ohio, formed principally by two main branches, Holston and Clinch rs. in Tennessee, which rise in the Alle- ghany Mountains in tiie SW. part of Va. It thence flows S. into Alabama, crosses the N. part of that state, and again enters! 26* Tennessee ; crossing the state N. it enters Kentucky, and falls into the Ohio r. 57 m. above its mouth, and 13 m. below the mouth of Cumberland r. Its entire length is about 1,200 m. ; for near 1,000 m. it ia navigable, having but few obstructions. Its principal head branches are Clinch, Holston, French Broad, Nolachucky, Tellico and Richland rs. It flows through a country the greater part of which is re- markable for its fertility. TENNESSEE, one of the U. States, bounded N. by Kentucky arfd Virginia, E. by North Carolina, S. by Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi, and W. by Arkansas and Missouri. It is 430 m. long by 104 broad, containing 40,000 square ni. The earliest permanent settlement was made in 1757, by the erection of Fort Loudon. Between 1765 and 1770, settle- ments were made on the Holston r. by inhabitants from Virginia and N. Caro- lina, which were much harassed by In- dian warfiire. The territory continued to form a part of North Carolina until 1790, when it was organized into a separate territorial government, which continued until 1796, when a state constitution was formed; rnd on the 1st June of the same year, Tennessee was admitted into the Union as an independent state. The state is divided into East and West Tennessee by the Cumberland Mountains, which extend in a NE. and SW. direc- tion. The E. part is hilly, and rises to the chain of mountains which form the eastern boundary of the state. These are known by the names of Stone, Unaka, Bald, and Iron or Smoky Mountains, The middle and western parts of the state are level and undulating. The soil is ex- ceedingly various. The valleys in the eastern section are very fertile, containing large proportions of lime. In the middle, much of the land is of an indifferent quality. In the west it is rich and pro- ductive. The principal rivers are the Tennessee, Cumberland, Clinch, Holston, Forked Deer, Big Hatchee, Obion and French Broad. The climate is generally healthy. The winters are mild, and the summers are pleasant. Cotton is the staple production. Wheat, corn, rye and barley are also raised. There are no extensive manufactories ; but iron, cotton and hemp have been man- ufactured to a considerable extent. Some of the most remarkable features in the state, are the bold and picturesque scenery of the mountains, with their lofty TEN 306 THO precipitous sides; the numerous cascades falling from 200 to 400 feet ; and caves of such immense depths and extent that some of them have never been fathomed or ex- plored. One of these caves was descend- ed 400 feet to the bottom, which was of smooth limestone, where was found a stream of water sufficient to turn a mill. Some of the caves have been explored 10 or 12 miles. " On some spurs of the Cum- berland Mountains," says Mr. Flint, " are marked in solid limestone, the footsteps of men, horses, and other animals, as fresh as if recently made, and as distinct as if impressed upon clay-mortar." Near the S. boundary are found trees in an entire state of petrifaction, one of which is a cypress four feet in diameter. Bones are found, which indicate an anin)al 20 feet high. Walls of faced stone exist in vari- ous places, and other works of a people apolis now unknown. On some of the highest l increasin rocks are paintings, in good preservation,! rapidly increasin the colors as fresh as if recently put on. 1837 at 1,100 The foot-prints of animals and human beings are imbedded in the limestone rock, and what is rer^arkable, the human feet have uniformly six toes. One of these tracks is sixteen inches long. No satis- factory explanation has ever been made pf these remarkable appearances. The Legislature consists of a Senate of 25 members, and a House of Represen- tatives of 75 members — all elected for two years. Their pay is S4 a day. The governor is efected for two years; salary, S2,000. Of religious denominations, the Bap- tists, Methodists and Presbyterians are the most numerous. There are five colleg-es in the state : — TENSAW, p. o. Baldwin co. Ala. TENS AW R.

Y. the seat of the United States Military Acad- emy, and an important fortress during the revolution ; situated on the W. side of the Hudson, 51 miles above New-York. From the singular projection of tiiis point *he river is here but half a mile wide; a Sain was stretched across in the revolu- tionary war, to prevent the passage of the enemy's ships. This was protected by fort Clinton, which was erected on the eminence, 188 feet high ; and on an island near the opposite bank of the river, other batteries were erected. Back of fort Clin- ton, and on a still higher point, .598 feet above the river, fort Putnam was erected, which covered the works below, and commanded the river. This strong po- sition, so important to the Americans, was equally desired by the British. To deliver this fortress and all the garrison into the hands of the enemy, was the ob- ject of Arnold's treason, for which the un- fortunate Andre suffered. The plain on which the academy, barracks, &c. are situated, covers about 250 acres of land. There is an excellent hotel kept in the best manner, for the accommodation of visiters. The academy was eotablished in 1802. The number of cadets is lim- ited to 250, who are destined for officers of the army. Their age on admission must be between 14 and 22. The cost of each cadet to government is about 335 dollars annually. They encamp about 8 weeks during the year. There are 30 professors and instructors, and the course of study occupies 4 years.

In Coos co. in the northern part of the state, the White Mountains reach their greatest elevation. They are the highest mountains in the U. S. except the Rocky Mountains, and are celebrated for their bold and magnifi- cent scenery. Mount Washington, the loftiest summit, is 6,428 feet above the le- vel of the sea, and is composed of im- mense rocks of granite and gneiss, fantas- tically heaped up by nature. The view from the top is indescribably sublime and beautiful. The highest summits are cov- ered with snow the greater part of the year. They are sometimes seen from the sea 60 m. distant. The other principal eminences are Mounts Adams, Jefferson, Madison, Monroe, Franklin, and Pleas- ant, which are from 4,340 to 5,385 feet high. A remarkable feature is a gap, called The Notch, which forms a passage between these rugged steeps, by which travellers may ascend to the top of Mount Washington. WHITE Oak, p. o. Wythe co. Va.
