The Rev. J. P. Gardner, a missionary in Rupert's Land, gives the following word of eighteen syllables as an illustration of the peculiarity of the Indian language: "Keguwecheahpetowkesinnemectesooinennawawan."--"I will dine with you."--[Mobile Advertiser.]

The following syllables in English will be found very good as an answer--"notifiknowit."
