_The Pima group._--One of Mr. Bartlett's vocabularies is of the Opata

form of speech. (_Ludwig._)

_Tequima_, according to the same authority is another name for the same

language: in which there is a vocabulary by Natal Lombardo; Mexico.

1702, as well as an _Arte de la Lengua Tequima, vulgarmente llamada

Opata_.

A _Vocabulario de las Lenguas Pima, Eudeve, y Seris_ is said, by De

Souza, to have been written by Fr. Adamo Gilo a Jesuit missionary in

California.--DITTO--_v._ PIMA.

Exceptions, which the present writer overlooked, are taken in the

Mithridates to the statement that the Opata and Eudeve Pater-nosters

represent the Pima Proper. They agree with a third language from the

Pima country--but this is not, necessarily, the Pima. Hence, what

applies to the _Pimerian_ may or may not apply to the Pima Proper.

Nevertheless, the Pima belongs to the same class--being, apparently,

more especially akin to the Tarahumara. I have only before me the

following Tarahumara words (_i. e._ the specimens in the Mithridates)

through which the comparison can be made. They give, however, thus much

in way of likeness and difference.
