Mr Editor: W?ll there he w?r? Will the narie* or Amelie? aud Sptia mret op the blue waters of the restless! Atlantic aod engage io fierce barnie ? Judging from the varied re? ports of the Spanish-American trouble? which hare been appearing so plentifully in the newspapers for the past several weeks, we will bave to wait on time for an answer to oar two questions. It ma? even be that war bas already been declared, eo rapidly bare events been succeeding each other. We, however, did not inteud to write an essay on the subject of a proposed war, but we wanted to call attention to tee fact that we bave an interesting and familiar n*me in Privateer Township which is a Spanish word and it is not confined to thi9 township either, for it is found in many other sections of the Sooth. That name is "Savanna." Tbe feet that this ia a Spanish name was brought to our attention several years ago by a gentleman who is a student of the Spanish language "Sabana is tbe Spanish way of spelling it, but the band u are interchanged here ?8 in?tbe cace of Havana, which is Habana in Spanish. Sabana bas three meanings in the Spanish lan guage, "bec--sheet, altar-cloth, and prairie." It is evident tbat the last is the meaning of the word when applied to savan? nas in our cooa tr v. We need cot tell our readers what savannas are, for they are fa mi liar wiih these curious formations which'pre? sent so blue and pretty. aa appearance wben covered by water. Doubtless ocr readers io Privateer Town? ship, as well as elsewhere, will be surprised on reading this article to learn that this name, with which they are so familiar, is a Spanish - word.
