PREFACE. 



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 of 
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, in 
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 
cal reference. 

To obtain the latest information, the following letter was extensively 
circulated throughout the country, particularly in the western and 
southwestern sections. 

DEAR SIR, 

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

state within the last two years ? if so, give the names, boundaries, and 
population. 

2. What new towns, or townships their situation, &c. ? 

3. What new milages 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 ? 

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, m 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 States 
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. 

From 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 settlement 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 ships 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 Philadelphia to consider the 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 the 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 



C 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, Virginia, 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 
ranges are the Green, Ozark, and White Mountains. 

There is a great diversity in the climate, from the extreme 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- 

r, and will probably undergo still further 
leajthy, except in some of the southern 
states in the summer months. 



proved since the early settlement of the country, and will probably undergo still further 
changes for the better. But it is generally hei

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, wheat, 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 
Champtain. 

The principal rivers are the Mississippi, Missouri, Arkansas, Columbia or Ore 

n, Red, Kanzas, Lewis, Clark, Yellow Stone, Canadian, Ohio, Tennessee, Ala 

ma, Appalachicola, Connecticut; Des Moines, Cumberland, James, Gt. Pedee, 
Illinois, Multomah, Mobile, Susquehannah, Platte, Wabash, 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 Ft. 

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.

AGRICULTURE. 



Of the great staples, already mentioned, cotton holds a distinguished place. In 
1789, but one million pounds of cotton were raised in the U. States.

The following is a list of the prices of flour for a number of years : 
In 1796, flour was $12 00 per barrel ; 1803, $6 50 ; 1808, (embargo,) $6 00 ; 1812, 
(war,) $12 50 ; 1816, (close of the war,) $9 00 ; 1817, $13 50; 1821, $4 00; 1828, 
$5 00 ; 1832, $5 50 ; 1835, $4 87 ; 1836, $6 50 ; 1837, $11 00 ; 1838, $7 75. 

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.

In 1837, the imports amounted to $140,852,980, being $49,127,055 less than the 
preceding year. The exports for 1837, amounted to $116,906,060, 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 404,8.14 
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. 



(JENEKAL VIEW OF THE 



PUBLIC LANDS. 

These lands 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 
the Ter. of Wisconsin were formed. S. Carolina relinquished her claims in 1787 ; 
N. Carolina, in 1789, to the territory now forming the state of Tennessee ; and 
finally, in 1802, 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 
Lanu 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 
en:itled to a pre-emption 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 the 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 36 sections, of one square mile each, or 640 acres. These sec 
tions are subdivided into quarter sections, of 160 acres each, and half-quarter sec 
tions, of 80 acres each. 

Previous to 1820, the sales were on credit, and the minimum price was $2 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 25 per acre, at which it still remains. 

As stated in the article Education, one section of 640 acres in each township is 
reserved for the support of common schools. Five per cent, also of the sales is re 
served, three-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 whole quantity sold was 44,499,620 acres ; the nett payments into the 
treasury (after deducting expenses) $58,619,523. 

The following table exhibits the lands sold at certain periods, their annual aver 
age, and the nett receipts into the treasury therefrom.

In 1836, the sales amounted to the extraordinary sum of $24,000.000 ; and in 1837 
they had fallen to $7,004,538. 

The population of the new states and territories, formed out of the 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. S. Senate, and one sixth of the members of the* House of Representatives. 



UNITED STATES. 



Since 1820, the public lands have only produced 6 cents an acre over the minimum 
government price. 

BANKS. 

The first bank which was established in this country was the Bank of North 
America. It owed its origin to the celebrated Robert Morris. It was first charter 
ed by Congress at Philadelphia, in 1781. 

In 1792, there were 12 banks ; in 1811, 89; in 1815, 208; in 1816,246. ; in 1820, 308; 
in 1830, 330; in 1836, 567; on the 1st Jan.. 1837, 633; 1st July, 1837, 000.

The amount of specie in the U. States in 1833, was estimated by the Secretary 
of the Treasury at $29,000,000. In 1836, at $73,000,000. 

The first United States Bank was incorporated during Washington s administra 
tion, in Feb. 1791. The term limited by the charter expired on the 4th of March, 1811 
Congress refusing to renew the charter. Its capital was 10,000,000, divided into 
25,000 shares of $400 each. Government held shares to the amount of $2,000,000. 

The late Bank of the U. States was chartered under Madison s administration, 
On the 10th of April, 1816, to continue for 20 years. Its capital was $35,000,000, 
of which government held $7,000,000. Its charter expired in 1836. Congress pre 
viously passed an act renewing the charter, which was vetoed by Gen. Jackson. A 
new charter was then obtained of the state of Pennsylvania. 

REVENUE AND EXPENDITURES. 

The revenue of the U. States is chiefly derived from customs and public lands. 
For the years 1833, 1834, 1835, 1836, the annual receipts averaged $34,713,000. 
The expenditures for the same years averaged, annually, $24,467,000, including a 
total of $7, 740,000 on account of public debt. 

The surplus revenue remaining in the the treasury on the 1st January, 1837, (re 
serving 5,000,000,) was $37,468,859. By an act of Congress, passed June 23, 1836, 
this surplus was directed to be deposited with the several states in quarterly instal 
ments, according to the number of their electoral votes, to commence Jan. 1. 1837. 
The 1st, 2d, and 3d deposits were made; but the last instalment was postponed, by 
act of Congress, in consequence of the deficiency of the revenue, arising from the 
great commercial distress of 1837. The amount actually distributed was $28,101,645. 

The receipts for the year 1837 (including the issue of several millions in Treasury 
notes) amounted to $23,499,000. Expenditures $35,281,000. 

PUBLIC DEBT. 

The last of the public debt was paid in 1835 ; when the U. States presented the 
only example on earth of a government entirely free from debt. The public debt 
of the U. States originated in the struggle of the Revolution, and presented the 
largest amount about the close of the war in 1816 being then $127,334.933. The 
following table exhibits the debt at different periods, from the close of the Revolu 
tionary War to its final extinction.

10 GENERAL VIEW OF THE 

MINT. 

The Mint was established in Philadelphia in 1792. Branch mints have recently 
been established at New Orleans, Charlotte, N. C., and Dahlonega, Ga. The total 
amount of coinage from 1792 to 1836 inclusive, is, of gold $22 102035; of silver 
$46,739,182 ; of copper $740,331 ; total, $69,581,548. For four years the coinage 
was as follows: 

In 1833, value $3,765,710 In 1835, value $5 668 667 

1834, " 7,388,423 1836, 7,764^900 

In the preceding years, there was deposited in gold for coinage from the U. States 
mines, $2,931,500, viz.: In 1833, $868,000; in 1834, $898,000; in 1835, $698,500: 
1836, $467,000. 

ARMY. 

From the peculiar position 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 30th Nov., 1836, amounted to 7,958, organized as 
follows: 



General Staff 14 

Medical Department 76 

Pay department 18 
Purchasing Department 

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 CassviHe, 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, and very efficient in its organization and discipline. It consisted in 1837, 
finished aud on the stocks, of 



11 ships of 74* guns.

14 do. 44 " 



2 ships of 24 guns. 

13 do. 18 " 

6 do. 12 " 



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 increase of this department 
and also the rapid growth of the country.

In July, 1835, the length of the mail routes in the U. States was 112,774 miles: 
annual transportation on them 25,869,486 miles. 

In July, 1836, the length of the mail routes was 118,264 miles; and the annual 
transportation on them 27,578,620 miles. On July 1, 1837, the mail routes had in 
creased to 142,877 miles ; and the annual transportation to 36,228,962 miles.

gress, from the period of 60 days before they take their seats until the next meeting 
of the next Congress, may send and receive letters and newspapers free of postage ; 
if the packet weighs more than two ounces, members of Congress are charged 
with the excess only. 

Postmasters may send and receive, free of postage, letters and packets not ex 
ceeding half an ounce in weight; and they may receive one daily newspaper, each, 
or what is equivalent thereto. 

Printers of newspapers may send one paper to each and every other printer of 
newspapers within the U. 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 law re 
specting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof. The 



12 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 least 
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

All other denominations have about 300 societies or churches. 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 one 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 whole 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 efficient common 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 ,*, 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 Jive 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 
of the individual states. 



UNITED STATES. 13 

The number of colleges founded in the U. States, up to 1838, is 98, but several of 
them have not yet gone into operation. The number of volumes in the college li 
braries, 280,000 ; the number in the students libraries, 130,000 ; total, 400,000. 

The whole number of Instructors is 750 

The whole number of Alumni 26,470 

The whole number of Students, in 1837, 9,250 

Of the above Alumni, 5,321 were graduates of Harvard University, Mas.; 4,485 
of Yale Colle^, Ct. ; 2,183 of Princeton College, N. J.; 1,858 of Dartmouth Col 
lege, N. H. ; 1,700 of Columbia College, N. Y. ; 1,600 of Union College, Schenec- 
tady ; and 1,253 of Brown University, R. I. 

There are thirty theological seminaries in the U. States and five theological de 
partments connected with other colleges. 

The number of Professors in 1837 was 84 

The number of Theological Students 1,057 

The number of volumes in library 72,500 

According to the " Catholic Almanac" for 1837, the Catholics have 13 colleges; 
12 ecclesiastical seminaries ; 23 female religious institutions; 37 female academies; 
and 37 charitable institutions. 

The Catholic ecclesiastical seminaries contain 84 students. The whole number 
of Catholic colleges is thirteen. In eight of these (the number organized in 1837) 
there were, instructors 130; students 995; volumes in libraries 50,000; whole num 
ber of Alumni, 394. 

There are 26 medical schools in the U. States, numbering 141 professors and 
2,460 students. 

PUBLIC LIBRARIES. 

In a report to the Senate of the U. States, in 1836, 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. States 
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, 1814, 
:Government purchased Mr. Jefferson s library, consisting of 6,484 volumes for 
$23,950. Since which, additional sums have been appropriated, making a total, 
since 1814, of $99.950. The whole number of volumes in the library is 24,600. 

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 

Among 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 12,00(3 volumes each. 

Although the libraries of the U. States are small compared with the magnificent 
collections in Europe, which amount to an aggregate of 19,850.000 volumes (the 
Paris Royal containing 700,000 ; Munich, 556,000; London, 244,000 volumes,) yet 
when the age of the country is considered, and that libraries are 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 i 
President of the Senate, and nas a casting vote only. 

The House of Representatives is composed of members elected in the several 
states by the peopb, 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. The 
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 $8 
for every 20 miles travel, to and from the seat of government. The compensation 
of the President of the Senate, pro lem., who is chosen in the absence of the Vice 
President, and of the Speaker of the House of Representatives, is $16 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 lay and collect taxes provide for the common defence 
and general welfare borrow 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 mihtia, when in actual service. His compensation is $25,000 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, Poatmaster 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 (26 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 18o6 established a Senate. 



UNITED STATES. J5 

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. Irr 
9 states, Representatives are elected for 2 years ; in all others, except Rhode Island, 
which 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 the people. 

Further details of the state governments are given in the description 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 enumeration of the inhabitants was made in 1790.

ARKANSAS, one of the Uni 
ted States, bounded N. by Missouri, E. 
by the Mississippi r. S. by Louisiana, 
and W. by Mis souri Ter. 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, Washtta, Cache, and St. 
Francis. The eastern part of the state is 
level which gradually varies to the west 
ward, where 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.

West." It is not more distinguished for 
the enterprise and munificence of its inha 
bitants, than for their 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 at $4,000,- 
000, and for 1836 at $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

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. 



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. 

DELAWARE, 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 m 
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 1G27. In 1655 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. 

Internal Improvements. The Chesa 
peake <f- Delaware Canal connects Dela 
ware r. with the head of Chesapeake Bay,

EVERGLADES, of Florida. 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 harvest 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."

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. 
The 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

The principal rivers are the St. Mary s, 
St. John s, the Suwanee, the Apalachi- 
cola and the Withlacouchee.

GEORGIA, one of the United 
States, bounded N. by Tennessee and N. 
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 mirshy. The pine barrens extend 
60 or 80 m. from the sea, beyond which 
the country rises and undulates, with con 
siderable elevations. In the interior the 
land is strong and productive, and well 
adapted to the cultivation of cotton, rice 



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 are over 100 schools in the state, 
with a fund of $500,000 for their support. 

Until recently, a large portion of the 
NW. section of the state was occupied 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 
Chatahoochee, the Ockmulgee, the Oconee, 
St. Mary s and Flint. 

Georgia was the last settled of the At 
lantic states. In 173-2, James Oglethorpe 
and a body of emigrants founded Savan 
nah. A representative assembly was first 
established in 1 755. 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. 

Pop. 1790, 82,548 ; 1800, 162,686; 1810, 
252,433; 1820,348,989; 1830, 516,823, of 
whom 217,530 were slaves.

treme length, 382 m. extreme width, 220 
m. Area, 59,300 square m. or 37,952,000 
acres. 

In 1763, the territory embracing Illinois 
was ceded to Great Britain by the French, 
who first made settlements along the llli- 
inois and Mississippi rs. as early as 1673. 



ILL 



135 



IML 



After the revolution, the country was held 
by the state of Virginia, and ceded by 
that state to the United Slates 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, with 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, whicn 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 not stand, are inexhaustible in 
fertility the soil reaching to a depth of 
20 or 30 feet. 

The principal productions are wheat 
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 Improvements. 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 $9,600,000 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, $3,500,000. 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. $1,850,000. A rail road 
from Alton to Mount Carmel. 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, 12m.: a 
rail road from St. Louis to the coal mines 
at Bluffs, 6 m. ; a rail road from Naples 
to Jacksonville. 

The Illinois fy 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 the 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. falling into the Mississippi 20m. above 
with the Miss 



its junction 



tissouri. The 



length of the Illinois proper is about 
265 m. It is navigable, generally, for 
210 in. and at high water as far as Otta 
wa, about 220 m. The navigation of the 
r. by steam and other vessels is consider 
able and fast increasing.

INDIANA, one of the United 
States, bounded N. by Michigan and the 
Lake, E. by Ohio, S. by Kentucky, and 
W. by Illinois. Its greatest length from 
N. to S. is 275 m. by 145 m. in breadth, 
and contains about 33,000 square m. 

The surface of the country is generally 
level, with occasional broken and uneven 
sections, which, however, are more par 
ticularly confined to the neighborhood 
of the Ohio r. in the S. part of the 
state. There are many prairies, some " 
which are extensive, containing belts 
good timber on the streams which cross 
them. 

The climate is similar to that of Ohio 
and Illinois, and is generally healthy, ex 
cept on the borders of Lake Michigan, 
which are subject to heavy rains. The 
winters are short, and not usually very 
severe. 

The soil is extremely rich and produc 
tive. The prairies are beautiful and well 
adapted to the growth of wheat and In 
dian corn. But much of the country in 
the N. part 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, White, White Water, Kankakee, 
Salamanic and Mississinewa. 

The chief towns are New Albany, Jef- 
fersonville, Vincennes, Indianapolis, (the 



late capital of the state,) and Springfield, 
the present state capital. 

Indiana College was founded in 1827, 
and is located at Bloomington. The U. 
S. granted two townships of land to this 
college. 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 has increas 
ed very rapidly. In 1800, it was only 
5,641 ; 1810, 24,520; 1820, 147,178: 1830, 
343 ; 031. 

Indiana was visited as early as 1703 
by the French traders and soldiers from 
Canada, 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 wo
