" The publications of the United States Geological Survey are issued iu accordance with the statute 

approved March 3, 1879, -which declares that 

"The publications of the GeologicaLSurvey shall consist of the annual report of operations, geological 

and economic maps illustrating the resources and classification of the lands, and reports upon general 

and economic geology and paleontology. The annual report of operations of the Geological Survey 

shall accompany the aiiuual report of the Secretary of the Interior. All special memoirs and reports 

of said Survey shall be issued in uniform quarto scries if deemed necessary by the Director, but otherwise in ordinary octavos. Three thousand copies of each shall bo published for scientific exchanges 

and for sale at the price of publication; and all literary and cartographic materials received in exchange 

shall be the property of the United States and form a part of the library of the organization; and the 

money resulting from the sale of such publications shall be covered into the Treasury of the United 

States."

On July 7, 1882, the following joint resolution, referring to all Government publications, was passed 

by Congress:

"That whenever any document or report shall be ordered printed by Congress, there shall be printed, 

in addition to the number in each case stated, the ' usual number' (1,734) of copies for binding and 

distribution among those entitled to receive them."

Except in those cases in which an extra number of any publication has been supplied to the Survey 

by special resolution of Congress or has been ordered by the Secretary of the Interior, this office has 

no copies for gratuitous distribution.

Very respectfully,

A GEOGRAPHIC DICTIONARY OF CONNECTICUT. 

By HENRY GANNETT.

The Geographic .Dictionary of Connecticut, which constitutes this 

bulletin, is designed to aid in finding any geographic feature upon the 

atlas sheets of that State published by the TJ. S. Geological Survey. 

It contains all the names given upon those sheets, and no other. 

Under each, name is a brief statement of the character and locality of 

the feature, and opposite is the name of the atlas sheet or sheets upon 

which, it is to be found.

The atlas sheets upon which the State is represented are the result 

of a survey made at the joint expense of the U. S. Geological Survey and 

the State of Connecticut. The scale upon which, the sheets are published 

is 1:62500; that is, a distance of 02,500 inches upon the ground, or very 

nearly 1 mile, is represented by 1 inch upon the map. Kelief, or the 

variation of elevation, is .represented by contour lines or lines of equal 

elevation-above mean sea level, these contour lines being at vertical 

intervals of 20 feet; so that each, contour indicates a level 20 feet higher 

than the one below it. Upon the map all water bodies, that is, bays, 

ponds, rivers, etc., are represented in blue; the contour lines representing the relief, together with the figures showing elevation; are 

printed in brown; and the lettering and all symbols of the works of 

man are printed in black.

The area of the State is represented upon 33 sheets, each sheet comprising 15 minutes of latitude by 15 minutes of longitude. .Each sheet, 

therefore, includes about 174 miles from north to south, and about 13 

miles from east to west. Of these sheets only 20 lie entirely or practically within the State; the others include portions of the adjacent 

States of Ehode Island, Massachusetts, and New York. The folio wingis a list of the sheets showing the names assigned to them and their 

limits in latitude and longitude:

The spelling of the names conforms to the decisions of the TJ. S. 

Board on Geographic Names.

Connecticut is one of the original 13 States5 it ratified the Constitution on January 9,1788.

The boundary lines between Rhode Island on the one hand and Massachusetts and Connecticut on the other are extremely irregular, having 

originated with early colonial charters, and having been modified subsequently by conventions and agreements, so that it is impossible to 

describe them in any other way than by representing them upon a map 

or by a detailed statement of courses and distances.

The total area of the State is 4,990 square miles. Of this area 145 

square miles are water surface, consisting of bays, ponds, rivers, etc.,
OANNBTT.] A GEOGRAPHIC DICTIONARY OF CONNECTICUT. 9

which, deducted from the total area,, leaves 4,845 square miles of land 

surface. 

The State is divided into eight counties, with land areas as follows:
