WILLIAM E. A. AXON, (To be continued.)

GIPSIES : " CHIGUNNJI." People who deal in historical and philosophical questions have a perverse way of always Retting hold of the wrong end of the stick. They always wish to prove some far-fetched, out-of-the- way theory. To me it has always appeared obvious that the Zigunnoi, described by Herodotus as people with a way of life exactly the same as that of modern gipsies, and occupying exactly the region to this day most thickly populated by gipsies, really were gipsies or Zigeuner. The whole thing is as plain as a pikestaff. What is the general occupation of gipsies but that of tinkers, horsedealers, and above all blacksmiths? Now a dialect word in Great Russian gives a com- plete explanation of the name Zigunnoi, because in that dialect the word not given in Russian dictionaries chigunnji means- made of iron or connected with iron. If in the present day so large a Slav element still remains along the Danube, this must have been still more the case in classic times, for the Slav elements have been slowly shrinking east and northwards. So that it is not won- derful if Herodotus was given the Slav name for the members of the nomad primitive iron age, who resolutely refused to be civilized. W. W. STRICKLAND, B.A.

In your notice of the new edition of 'Murray's Handbook for Yorkshire' (10 th S. i. 259) you state that the "delightful cream cheese" made at Grewelthorpe might have been mentioned. Will you allow me to point out that the 'Handbook' contains two allusions to this cheese: on p. 320, where Grewelthorpe is mentioned, and also at the end of section xiii. of the Introduction, where the gastronomic peculiarities of the county are described? You also remark
