NOTE. The pupil must not think that the opposite map gives a view of
the whole extent of the territory of the United States; it represents
only that part which is divided into States, and settled. A view of the
whole is given on the map of North America; and by comparing the two
maps, he will easily understand what part is here represented.
1. _The United States constitute a Republic; how is the government
administered?_ 2. How many States and Territories are in this Republic,
including Oregon Territory? 3. How is Maine bounded? 4 to 30. How are
the other States and Territories severally bounded? 31. What States are
north from the 40th parallel of latitude? 32. What south?
33. There is a range of mountains which extends almost through the
whole of the United States; what is its general course? 34. Through
what part of Virginia does it run? 35. What mountains are in Tennessee?
36. In Alabama? 37. Where are the Lead Hills?
38. _Is the water of lakes generally salt or fresh?_ 39. What lakes
lie between the United States and Canada? 40. How is Lake Michigan
situated? 41. Moose Head Lake? 42. Flambeau Lake? 43. Lake St. Clair?
44. What lakes are near the source of the Mississippi river? 45. _What
is a lake called if its waters be salt?_
46. What bays are located on the south coast of Florida? 47. Where is
Narraganset bay? 48. What large gulf is south from the United States?
