In front of this artistic work was a beau- tiful garden and miniature ornamental grounds. CONNECTICUT. One of the original thirteen States. Area variously estimated at 4,674 and at 4,750 square miles. Population in 1880, 622,700. Capital, Hartford. Floor space occupied at the Exposition, 6,468 square feet. The State is divided into 8 counties. Its surface is diversified by numerous hills, of which the "Blue Hills" present the highest elevations. Mines are but few in number. Copper is found in l...imited quantities, and argentiferous lead mines have been worked at Middletown. There are also deposits of sul- phate of baryta, limestone, flagstone, marble, granite, good brick clay, feld- spar, etc., and several mineral springs are known to exist. The collective exhibit was made by the State. The mineral portion was not large but was interesting. There were two table cases of choice crys- tallized minerals, all exceptionally fine. The style of arranging the spec- imens and the mode of labeling them was very elegant.
