scientific subjects. Drifting into a more attent- 

 ive study of the American Indians, lie pub- 

 lished several compositions upon their lan- 

 guages, the most important of which is " Zwolf 

 Sprachen aus dem Slid western Nordamerikas," 

 "Weimar, 1876. This led to his being appointed 

 to the position of ethnologist in the United 

 States Geological Survey, under Maj. John "W. 

 Powell, in March, 1877, when he removed to 

 "Washington, and first employed himself in ar- 

 ranging the linguistic manuscripts of the Smith- 

 sonian Institution, now the property of the Bu- 

 reau of Ethnology, which forms a part of the 

 Smithsonian Institution. Mr. G-atschet has 

 ever since been actively connected with that 

 bureau. To increase its linguistic collections, 

 and to extend his own studies of the Indian 

 languages, he .has made extensive trips of 

 linguistic and ethnologic exploration among 

 the Indians of North America. A_fter return- 

 ing from a six months' sojourn among the 

 Klamaths and Kalapuyas of Oregon, settled 

 on both sides of the Cascade Range, he visited 

 the Kataba in South Carolina and the Cha'hta 

 and Shotimasha of Louisiana in 1881-'82, 

 the Kayowe, Comanche, Apache, Yattassee, 

 Caddo, Jfaktche, Modoc, and other tribes in the 

 Indian Territory, the Tonkawe and Lipans in 

 Texas, and the Atakapa Indians of Louisiana in 

 1884-'85. In 1886 he saw the Tlaskaltecs at Sal- 

 tillo, Mexico, a remnant of the Nahua race, 

 brought theie aboutl575 from Anahuac, and was 

 the first to discover the affinity of the Biloxi 

 language with the Siouan family. He also com- 

 mitted to writing the Tunixka or Tonica lan- 

 guage of Louisiana, never before investigated, 

 and forming a linguistic family of itself. Ex- 

 cursions to other parts of the country brought 

 to his knowledge other Indian languages,— 

 the Tuskarora, Caughnawaga, Penobscot, and 

 Karankawa. 



Mr. G-atschet is compiling an extensive report 

 embodying his researches among the Klamath- 

 Lake and Modoc Indians of Oregon, which will 

 form Vol. II of "Contributions to North Amer- 

 ican Ethnology." Among the tribes and lan- 

 guages discussed by him in separate publica- 

 tions are the Timucua (Florida), Tonkawe 

 (Texas), Yuma (California, Arizona, Mexico), 

 Chiimgto (California), Beothuk (Newfound- 

 land), Creek and Hitchiti (Alabama). His 

 numerous publications are scattered through 

 magazines and government reports, some being 

 contained in the Proceedings of the American 

 Philosophical Society, Philadelphia.

Manuscript in the seminary at the mission of 

 Lac des Deux Montagues (Oka), Canada, pre- 

 pared by the first superior of the mission. It 

 is in a little book which is torn. It includes 

 some pages of Algonkin names, with French 

 translations by Maurice Qu6r6 de Fieguron, the 



second superior.

During a visit to the above mission in the- 

 summer of 1882 1 saw a number of Algunquian 

 manuscripts, but not the above, the title of which- 

 was sent me subsequently b.y the late Mrs. Er- 

 minnie A. Smith, an employee of the Bureau of 

 Ethnology. I made an unsuccessful attempt to 

 see it on a later visit to Oka, in the summer of 

 1889, the Abb6 Cuoq assuring me there was no 

 such manuscript in their archives.
