520    "In 1831 one-third of the United States Senate and one-
       fourth of the House of Representatives had been born in 
       Connecticut.  Alexis de Tocqueville toured the United 
       States in that year and was struck by the remarkable 
       contributions made by Connecticut, and in July of 1831 
       while addressing a group of Americans he delivered the 
       follwing grand sentiment: 'Connect-deCoot, de leetle 
       yellow spot dat make de clock-peddler, de schoolmaster, 
       and de senator.  De first give you time, de second tell 
       you what to do with him, and de tird make your law and 
       your civilization.  Ah, gentleman, dat lettle yellow state
       you call Connect-de-Coot is one very great mirale to me'"-
