THE LITERARY POST.
origin of Words and Phrases.
'He's cut a Dido.'—lt is often told hi
history that ado, a queen of Tyre ) about
eight hundred and seventy years before
Christ, fled from that place upon the blur •
der of her husband, told with a colony set.
tled upon the northern coast of Africa,
where she built Carthage. Being in want
of land, she bargained with the natives for
as much as she could sbtround with a bull's
hide. Having made the aggreement, she
cut a bull's hide into fine strings, and ty.
ing them together, claimed as touch land;
as she could surround with the long line
she had thus made. The natives allowed
the cunning queen to have het Way, but
when any boy played off a sharp trick,
they said he has cut a Dido;'—and the
phrase has come down to our day.
'He's tenet a Tartar.'—ln Ponie battle
bet*een the Rusaians and tartars, who
are a wild sort of people in the north of .
Asia, a private soldier called out, 'Captain,
hollo there! I've 'caught a tartar!' 'Fetch
him along then!' said the - captain. 'Ay,
but he won't let me!' said the man; and
the fact was, the Tartar had caught him.
So when a man thinks to take another in,
and gets bit himself, they say—'He's
caught a Tartar!'
'Carrying this war into Africa.'--In ode
of the famous wars between Carthage and
Rome, Hannibal, Carthaginian leader, and
one of the most wonderful meh of antiqui
ty, led bin army into Italy, and for several
years continued to 'threaten the city and
lay waste the surrounding country.—
Scipio, a Roman general, saw the necesti.
ty of getting rid of Hannibal, and his for—
ces; so he determined to lead an army into
Africa, and threaten Carthage, and thus
make it necessary for Hannibal to return
home for its defence. This scheme had
its intehded effect; and in all times, this
retaliating upon an enemy, by adopting his
own tactics, is called 'carrying the war iehi
to Africa.'
The term ,Yankee,'is supposed to have
orivinated with the Indians, who calla
the Eng:ish, Yongees ; which bathe at
length to be Yankees.
'Hoosiers.'—The people of Indiana all
called Hoosiers, and it is said to be an ab.
hreviation of 'Who's here?'—a question .
which used to be shouted aloud by the
traveler in that quarter, when, amid the tall
grass of the prairies, he heard voices, or
saw the smoke of a log cabin, but could
see nobody.
'Suckers,' is the designa , ion of the pee.
ple of Illinois; because, as it said, the Ga. -
lens miners used to appear in spring about ,
the time the sackers., a large fish of the
West ascended tLe rivers.
.Wolverine,' is the . titie of a citizen Of
Michigan, because an animal of that. name,
often balled the Glutton, and somewbsiO're
seinbling the rarcoon, is common in that
stale.
'Buckeye,' is a tree resembling the cat.
alpa, and it is common in Ohio; so Ohio is
galled Ihe buckeye state, and the citizens
buckeyes.
'Corn-Crackers,' is the nicknaine'of the
Ketituckiaus, as a compliment to the soil
and climate Which furnishes the people
with abundance or corn and appetite to
devour it.
'Sohn is the title given to Ear
land and Englishmen, because it is faniied
that there is a surly, grumbling manner - sa
bout the people of that country, which te
minds one of a hull,
'Empire State,' is the name , given , le
New York, beca'use of its great extent%
population and wealth
Pennsylvania is called the 'Key Siono
S!ate,' because of its central position.
