Mr.

Henry

R. Schoolcraft, while

engaged

in the preparation of his

work —

"Information respecting the History, Condition,

and

Prospects of the Indian Tribes of the United States"

—

^{sent tovarious persons}

residing

among

the Indians a "Comparative Vocabulary of the Lan- guages of the Indian Tribes of the United States,"a quarto paperof 25 pages, comprising 350 words,

and

the numerals one toone billion.

The

returns from this were ^forthe most part incorporated in his

work

;

afew, however, found ^their

way

^{into thecollection of the} Smithsonian Institution.

In 1853-'54, Mr. George Gibbs, while engaged under Gov. Isaac ^I.

Stevens in " Explorations for a routeforthe Pacific Railroad near the 47th and 49th parallels of north latitude,"

became

interested in the study of the languages of the Indians inhabiting the Northwest,

and

collected

many

vocabularies.

To

furtherextend this work,he prepared

and had

printed a folio paperof three leavesentitled

"A

vocabulary of 180 words which ^{it is} desired to collect in the different languages and dialects throughout the PacificCoastfor publication

by

the Smithson- ian Institute at Washington."

Theseweresentto such persons as,in hisjudgment, were competent to furnishthe material desired,

and many

ofthem,filled orpartlyfilled,

were returnedtohim.

A

^{second edition of this}vocabulary, 6 11., folio,

was

issued.

In 1863 there

was

published by the Smithsonian Institution a pam- phletwith the followingtitle

In his introductoryremarks, Professor

Henry

thus states theobject ofthepaper

:

"The

SmithsonianInstitution isdesirous ofextending

and

completing

its collectionsof facts and materials relative tothe Ethnology, Archae- ology, and Philology of the races of

mankind

now

or atanyprevious period, the continent ofAmerica, and earnestlysolicits

the cooperation in thisobjectof all officersof the United States Gov- ernment,

and

travellers or residents

who may

have^it intheir

power

to renderany assistance."

Under

the headofPhilology, Mr. Gibbs gave abriefaccount of

some

ofthe peculiarities of Indian languages, with generaldirections for the best

method

of collecting certain words; a simple

and

practical alpha- bet;

and

a vocabulary in English, Spanish, French,

and

Latin of 211 words. Speakingof the latter, hesays

:

"In

viewof theimportanceof a uniform system incollectingwords of thevarious Iudiau languagesof North America, adapted totheuse of officers of the government, travellers,

and

others,the following is

recommended

as a

Standard Vocabulary.

Itismainlytheonepre- pared

by

the late Hon. Albert Gallatin, with a few changes

made by

Mr. Hale, the Ethnologist of theUnited States Exploring Expedition, and ^is adoptedas that

upon

which nearly all the collections hitherto

made

forthe purposeofcomparison have beenbased. Eorthe purpose of ascertaining the

more

obvious relations between the various

mem-

bers of existing families this

number

^is

deemed

sufficient.

The

remote

affinities

must

be sought in a wider research,

demanding

a degree of acquaintance with their languages beyond thereach of transientvisit- ors."

The

vocabularygiveninthis paper

was

separatelyprintedonwriting paper, 10 11.,4° ,

and

reprinted, 6 11.,folio,

and was

distributedwidely

among

the missionaries, Indian agents, travelers,

and

local collectors in ethnology,and has served a valuable purpose, resulting in the col- lection

by

the Smithsoniau Institution of a large

number

ofvocabula-

ries, comprising

many

of the languages

and

dialects of the Indian tribesof theUnited States,British America,

and

Mexico.

This material, as it

was

received,

was

placed in the hands of Mr.

Gibbs forrevision and classification

—

^a

^work

^{inwhich he}

^was

^engaged

at the time ofhisdeath, whichoccurred beforeanyofit

was

^published.

In 1876, Professor

Henry

turned this material over to Maj. J.

W.

Powell, then in charge of the UnitedStates Geographical

and

Geologi- cal Survey of the

Eocky Mountain

Eegion,to beconsolidated

and

pub- lished in connection with like material collected

by

himself

and

his assistantswhile

among

theIndians of thewesternportionof theUnited States.

A ^number

^were accordingly published in the " Contributions to North

American

Ethnology,"Vols. I

and

III,a quartoseriesissued

by

the Survey.

Wishing

toextendthe

work

already

begun by

the Smithsonian Insti- tution, MajorPowell, in 1877,preparedthe followingpaper:

Introduction| to the | Study of Indian Languages, | with words, phrases, and sen- tences tobecollected. |ByJ. W. Powell. | Washington: |Government Printing Office. | 1877.

Pp. 1-104, 10ruled11., 4° .

In his opening remarks, referring to the manuscripts derived from thedistributionof Mr. Gibbs' paper, the author says: "It has, in fact,

greatlystimulated investigation, giving wiser direction to inquiry,

and

theresults have abundantly provedthe value ofthe 'Instructions'

and

the

wisdom

of its publication;

and

it serves to

mark

an epoch ⁱⁿ the historyof ethnographicinvestigationin America.

The

material which has thusbeen accumulated is of great amount,

and

its studyhas led tosuch important conclusions thatit is

deemed

wise toprepare a

new

system of instruction,

more

comprehensive in plan and

more

elaborate in detail. First,it is found necessarytoenlarge the alphabet soas to includea greater

number

of sounds, which have beendiscoveredin the North

American

languages,

and

to

mark

other letterswith greaterpre- cision. Second,it isnecessaryto enlarge the vocabularyso as tomod-

ifyit somewhat, ^asexperience has dictated,so that

new

words

may

be collected. Third,itisdesirablethat

many

simple phrasesandsentences shouldbegiven

—

^{sochosen as to} bring out the

more

importautcharac- teristicsof grammaticstructure."

In the preparation of thispaper, the alphabet

was

considered tobe of primeimportance. Concerningit,the author says: "After devoting

much

time to the considerationof the subject,and theexamination of

many

alphabets devised

by

scholars

and

linguists, none

was

found against which there

was

not serious objections,

and

the author at-

tempted todevise an alphabet which

would

contain all the supposed requirements; but there were

many

difficultiesin theway,

and many

compromises to be

made

in weighingthe various considerations.

At

this stage of the

work

heapplied tothe eminent philologist, Prof.

W.

D. Whitney,for assistance. After

much

consultation

and

theweighing ofthe

many

considerations arisingfrom thelarge

amount

ofmanuscript material in the author's hands, Professor

Whitney

kindlyprepared the following paperon the alphabet."

The

words, phrases,

and

sentences to be collected are arranged in schedules, each preceded

by

instructions, and followed

by

blanks for additions, as follows:

I. Persons, 15words.

This paper

was

preparedwith special reference tothe wantsof the collector, being printedon

bond

paper and

bound

in flexible cloth. It

was

widely distributed and,like that of Mr. Gibbs, resultedin thecol lection ofvaluable^linguistic material.

In 1879Congress consolidated the various surveys, including that of the

Eocky Mountain

Eegion, intothe United StatesGeological Survey, but

made

provision forcontiuuing the publication of the Contributions to North

American

Ethnologyunder the directionof the Secretaryof theSmithsonian Institution,

and

directed that the ethnologic material in Major Powell's hands be turnedover to the Institution.

Thus

the

Bureau

ofEthnologyofthe SmithsonianInstitution

was

organized,

and

Major Powell

was

placed atitshead.

By

this time thegrowing ^interest manifested in the study of North

American

linguistics rendered necessary the preparation of a

new

^edi-

tion ofthe Introduction. In the wordsofthe author

:

"

The

progress

made

by various students,

and

the studies

made by

the author, alike require that a

new

edition be prepared to meet the

more

advanced wants

and

to

embody

theresults ofwiderstudies.

Un-

der these circumstances the present edition is published. It does not purporttobea philosophic treatment of thesubject of language; itis

not acomparative

Experience had demonstrated the proprietyof

some

changes in the alphabet

and

a considerableenlargement of the scheme asgiven ⁱⁿthe

first editionof the work,

and

in the second Major Powell has

made many

modifications.

The

schedule of relationship

was

so large that graphic representation

was

considered necessary,

and

charts were pre- pared which it

was

thoughtboth the studentand the Indian could^fol- lowitwithcomparativeease. Experience has

shown

that the idea

was

wellfounded.

As

in the first edition,blank spaces were given after each schedule for such additions asmight suggest themselves to the ^collector; and to further facilitate the

work

separate alphabet cards of convenient size accompaniedthe volume.

This publication hasnotbeen long

enough

in thehands of collectors to meet with great returns, though a sufficient

number

have beenre- ceived, filled or partlyfilled,to justifythe

Bureau

in anticipating, in thenot distant future,the receiptof a

body

of material prepared ac- cordingto scientificmethods which,

when

published, will prove avalu- able contribution to thisbranchof ethnologic research.
