Excerpt from A Statistical Account of the City of New-Haven Connecticut, for the promotion of useful knowledge, was suggested early in the year 1799. A few gentlemen in new-haven attended a meeting at an invitation given; and a sketch of the principal objects of such an Association was communicated, together with the outline of the proposed Society, which was named The Connecticut Academy of Arts and Sciences.

At a subsequent meeting, certain fundamental articles were adopted as the Constitution of the Academy, by which were prescribed the terms of admission to membership. In October following, the Academy, on petition, obtained from the legislature an act of incorporation. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
