CURATORS, R. B. Hildreth, C. A. Emery, C. W. Bennett, J. A. Allen, and Solomon Stebbins.


This institution originated in 1860 with the Library Association, and two rooms were assigned to it in the City Hall, which have been fitted up with appropriate shelves and cases, and now contain about 1,500 species and upwards of 3,600 specimens of shells, classified by Dr. George A. Otis; recently Surgeon of the 27th Massachusetts Regiment; also 7,407 specimens of insects, 481 specimens of stuffed birds; 104 stuffed quadrupeds, including two enormous wildcats, killed in this country ; 115 species of fish and reptiles; small cabi- nets of coral and crustacea; an extensive mineralogical cabinet; a large and very curious collection of fossils; numerous Indian and foreign antiquities, and several flags and various other trophies cap- tured from the Southern rebels by our home troops. Additions are frequently made by the generosity of our citizens, and our Museum is in quite a flourishing state for so young an institution. The Mu- seum is open and admission free to the public on Saturday evenings. At other times a permit from the Librarian or one of the curators is requisite for admission. Donations for the Library or Museum may be left with the Librarian.

PLACES WORTHY OF NOTICE .- GREAT FRESHETS.


PLACES WORTHY OF NOTICE FROM STRANGERS.


THE CITY HALL, fronting Court Square, erected at an expense of $100,000, ranks among the finest buildings in New England. It has an audience room capable of holding 3,000 persons, and accom- modations for all city officers, Police Court, City Library, and City Museum.


THE CEMETERY-In the south-easterly part of the city, has its main entrance from Maple street, near its junction with Central street, with an entrance for carriages also from Pine street, and for people on foot from Mulberry and from Union streets. It has great natural advantages of location and scenery, combining a fine variety of hill and dale, and is constantly being beautified and adorned by the hand of art.


THE UNITED STATES ARMORY, which was greatly enlarged and improved during the war, and employed at one time over 3000 men is now doing but very little, and has but a small number of hands employed.


HAMPDEN PARK-Inaugurated September 29, 1857. Purchased and improved by the Hampden County Agricultural Society at a cost of $31,600, for an exhibition ground; "the finest and most con- venient location the Society could have fixed upon, and unsurpassed for beauty and fitness by any lot devoted to a similar purpose, in the world." These grounds, sixty acres in extent, enclosed on the river side by a costly levee, on the other side by a substantial fence, con- tain a splendid barn, with stalls for cattle and horses, and extensive sheds in addition, devoted to a like purpose; a mile and also a half mile track, graded and kept in good condition; a range of seats three hundred feet long; and a judge's stand, tasteful in appearance and permanent in construction. Here have been held the far-famed Springfield Horse Shows, and the annual Cattle Shows of the County Society. Its use as a public park is strikingly appropriate, for it was the first lot of land granted by the early settlers, within the first month after their arrival in 1636.


'GREAT FRESHETS-Highest Rise of Water in Connecticut River- 1801, twenty-one feet six inches; 1843, April 18, twenty feet eight inches; 1854, May 1, twenty-two feet four inches; 1856, August 21, eighteen feet nine inches, (Camp Thompson inundated); 1859, March 20, twenty feet six inches; 1862, April 20, twenty-two feet two inches (Hampden Park flooded); 1865, March 18, eighteen feet ten inches.
