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 accommodations for all city officers, Police Court, a portion of the High School, etc.


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. Although within the city, it is so secluded its existence would hardly be suspected by a stranger. On a por- tion of it, the forest trees still grow, and " Nature vies with Art in producing one of the most charming combinations of hill and valley, stream and fountain, trees and flowers, slopes and terraces, and winding foot-paths and open carriage-ways, imaginable." There are forty acres in the grounds, and the south, part has recently been laid out in lots, and a number of beautiful and appropriate memo- rials of the dead erected.


THE UNITED STATES ARMORY, on State street, is described on page 64. Visitors see here the most perfect works for gun-making, great stores of arms, many mementoes of war, (including marks of the fight here in the Shays rebellion,) and views of the surround- ing country from the top of the arsenal. Over fifty acres of land are owned here by the government. Near the south-east corner of the fine iron fence, and outside of it, is a quaint old mile-stone, worth looking at, and erected by a man who had lost his way, long before Directories were published.

street; having one entrance from Clinton street, and another from Plainfield street. Inaugurated September 29, 1857. Purchas- ed and improved by the Hampden County Agricultural Society at a cost of $31,600, for an exhibition ground; "the finest and most convenient location the society could have fixed upon, and unsurpassed for beauty and fitness by any lot devoted to a similar pur- pose in the world."


Great Freshets.3


Highest rise of water in Connecticut River -1801, twenty-one feet six inches; 1843, April 18, twenty feet eight inches ; 1854, May 1, twenty-three feet six inches; 1856, August 21, eighteen feet nine inches, ( Camp Thomp- son 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; 1869, April 21, twenty-one feet (Hampden Park flooded); October 4, 1869, twenty-one feet six inches (Hampden Park flooded).


River Navigation.


The steamer Mayflower runs up and down the river, carrying excursion parties from Springfield whenever desired. She is a new, fast-sailing vessel of fifteen tons burden, ac commodating one hundred passengers. J. D. Gallup of Agawam is captain, and Lewis Adams, pilot.


The city is part owner in a steam vessel, which makes regular trips to Agawam and back. Small craft are numerous; and when the obstructions are removed between here and the Sound, the commerce of Springfield may be more important.


Sixteen Acres.


This is chiefly a farming community, and is six miles east of City Hall, and two miles south of the Indian Orchard station on the railroad. There are, perhaps, not more than a dozen houses clustered together, with a grist-mill, blacksmith shop, ward building for voting and a school-house near by. Two freestone quarries are in the neighborhood.


Indian Orchard.


This north-east portion of Springfield in- terests capitalists, pleasure seekers, invalids and business men. It has many visitors, and there is a lively appreciation of real estate. The railroad from Palmer will soon be built here, crossing Chicopee River at "Indian Leap," a little above the village, and passing through it along the river bank to Chicopee Falls. The length of this route will be thir- teen miles; the survey is made, and means assured for its construction. The mineral springs here contain unusually large propor- tions of iron and sulphur, the former element predominating, as is shown by analysis of the State Assayer ; wonderful cures are reported, and the fame of their virtues is spreading. Work-people in the mills, who were thin and debilitated when they came, seem imbued with new life by using the waters. Pil- grims seeking health come daily, in carriages and on foot.


The village is on the Chicopee River, one mile north of the Indian Orchard station on the Boston and Albany Railroad, and seven miles from the City Hall. It is laid out with straight, wide streets, crossing each other at right angles, and contains about 1,500 inhabi- tants. There are two churches, a large new school-house, three dry goods and four gro- cery stores, one apothecary and one cigar store and manufactory, a post office, two hotels, Library Hall, two cotton mills, one omnibus line, and a horse railroad, reservoir, gas works, etc. Many a Western place has set up as a city with far less than these.


Indian Orchard mills and much of the land in the vicinity are owned by J. C. Howe & Co., of Boston; George O. Hovey is Presi- dent of the Corporation, and Edward Atkin- son, Treasurer, both gentleman belonging to Boston; Chas. J. Goodwin is Superintendent, and A. S. Packard, Paymaster. The mills contain 860 looms and 41,000 spindles, and turn out from 150,000 to 160,000 yards per week of shirtings, denims and sheetings; two kinds of the latter are made, one of standard quality, the other. a lighter fabric. Two million three hundred thousand pounds of middling cotton are consumed annually. and the monthly pay-roll amounts to about $17,000. A wise and liberal policy distin- guishes the corporation in its dealings with employes, and gives character and perma- nence to the community. The operatives agree


75


SPRINGFIELD CITY DIRECTORY.


to refrain from intoxicating liquors and pro- fanity, observe the Sabbath, and pay their debts. The corporation have erected Libra- ry Hall for the use of the employes, with a reading-room, library and hall that will seat some 300. The library contains about 1,600 volumes, of popular interest and permanent value, and new books are constantly added. The reading-room is supplied during the win- ter with the Springfield Daily Republican, Boston Daily Advertiser, eight or ten weekly papers, and fifteen monthly periodicals. The employes very generally avail themselves of these advantages. A better class of people are drawn here by them, and induced to settle. Evidence of this is seen in the schools, the houses, yards, lawns and flower- gardens. Formerly the children in the mills failed to attend school, although the law re- quired it. A half-time school was therefore established, and these children induced to go. They work in the mills in the forenoon, at- tend school till 4 o'clock in the afternoon, and work the remainder of the day ; those work- ing by piece earn nearly as much as they did before. There is also an evening school for older people.


The corporation prefer to sell lots only to those who will settle and build up the place, and to their employes. The latter are en- couraged to build homes for themselves. Land is sold them at a very low price, and two-thirds the money to erect a house is loaned them for ten years, at a low rate. Several houses were thus erected the past year, and lots are purchased for twenty more. Buyers agree to build within a year, and their deeds prohibit liquor selling forever. A large brick block of stores, with dwellings over- head, has just been completed on the corner of Oak and Main streets.


Water-power is so abundant and land so cheap here, with facilities for conveyance provided, that capitalists can put up estab- lishments with great profit.


The horse railroad connects with all the Boston and Albany accommodation trains.
