DUBLIN: PEINTED AND t>UBLISHED FOR THE COMMITTEE, BY JOHN FALCONER, 53, UPPER SACKVILLE-STREET, AND SOLD IN THE BUILDING—PRICE ONE SHILLING, V \ ; : MK5"fD.D'^P^ 3CH.^0SA to " iigain—<he band of commeroe was design'd T' associate all the branches of mankind; And if a boundless plenty be the robe, Trade is the golden girdle of the globe. Wise to promote whatever end He means, .. God opens fruitful nature's -various scenes. Each climate needs what other climes produce. And offers something to the gen'ral use; No land but listens to the common call, And in return receives supply from all. This genial intercourse, and mutual aid, Cheers what were else a nniversal shade. Calls nature from her ivy-mantrccl den. And softens human rock-work into men. Ingenious Art, with her expressive face. Steps forth to fashion and refine the race Not only fills necessity's demand, But overcharges her capacious hand ; Capricious taste itself can crave no more. Than she supplies from her abounding store She strikes out all that luxury can ask, And gains new vigour at her endless task. Hers is the spacious arch, the shapely spire. The painter's pencil, and the poet's lyre; From her the canvass borrows light and shade. And verse, more lasting, hues that never fade. She guides the finger o'er the dancing keys, Gives difficulty all the grace of ease. And pours a torrent of sweet notes around. Fast as the thirsting ear can drink the sound. " These are the gifts of Art, and Art thrives most Where Commerce has enrich'd the busy coast; He catches all improvements in his flight, Spreads foreign wonders in his country's sight, Imports what others have invented well, And siirs his own to match them or^xeel. 'Tis thus reciprocating, each with each. Alternately the nations learn and teach ; While Providence enjoins to ev'ry soul A union with the vast terraqueous whole." COWPEB. — O MM ITTEE.

That a suitable bmlding shall be erected on the lawn of the Royal Dublin Society. " 2nd. That the opening of the Exhibition shall not be later than June, 1853. " 3rd.

"4th. That Mr. Dargan shall have the nomination of the Chairman, Deputy Chairman, and of the Secretary of the Special Executive Committee. "5th. That at the termination of the Exhibition, the building shall be taken by Mr. Dargan, and shall become his property at a valuation by competent persons. " 6th. That if, after payment of all expenses, the proceeds of the Exhibition do not amount to £20,000, with interest thereon at 5 per cent., Mr. Dargan shall receive the proceeds, less all expenses incurred. "If the proceeds, after payment of all expenses, amoimt to £20,000, with interest thereon at 5 per cent., Mr. Dargan is to receive £20,000, and interest at 5 per cent. If the proceeds, after payment of all expenses, exceed the sum of £20,000, with interest thereon at 5 per cent., the Executive Committee is to have the disposal of the surplus. " The amount of the valuation of the building is to be considered as cash paid to Mr. Dirgan. (Approved.) "Wm. DARGAN." — — 8 PREFACE.

SHEET NUMBER 56 GSI BEDROCK 1:100,000 SHEET NO. 16 Outline Site Description A prominent, scree covered, quartzite conical mountain peak standing out on the north Wicklow and Dublin skyline. Geological System/Age and Primary Rock Type Cambrian quartzite (Bray Head Formation) bedrock with greywacke/quartzite bedrock on the south/southwest slopes. The scree deposits (of quartzite) are Quaternary in age, having formed from freeze-thaw activity during the last glaciation. Main Geological or Geomorphological Interest Great Sugar Loaf (501m) is a prominent conical peak of pale-pink Cambrian quartzite, around 7km southwest of Bray. The conical shape contrasts with the rounded summits of the granite mountains to the west. The elevated terrain comprising Great Sugar Loaf, Little Sugar Loaf and Bray Head marks the northern margin of a tectonic slide (roughly along the course of the River Dargle) where Cambrian rocks were thrust up onto Ordovician rocks (found between Bray Head and Killiney Hill and southwest beyond Rathdrum). This NW directed thrusting occurred during a great mountain building event (Caledonian Orogeny), 475-400 million years ago, also during which the Late Caledonian Leinster granites were formed. Great Sugar Loaf and Little Sugar Loaf (341m), 3km to the northeast, are separated by Kilmacanoge valley.

  • Introducing Waterford and Its Landscape
    Introducing Waterford and its Landscape Waterford is the most eastern of the six counties of Munster. It is a maritime county with no part of the county being more then twenty-five miles (40KM) from the sea. Waterford contains a variety of landscapes and scenery within its confines, rarely encountered in such a compact territory. In the east of the country the landscape and scenery is derived from the Caledonian folding which underpins the scenery of Leinster, Connacht, most of Ulster and Scotland. West Waterford is part of the Armorican geological province of hills and valleys running east west. Waterford County is split in two by the spectacular plateau of the Comeragh Mountains. This flat-topped massif reaches a height of over 2,600 feet (790 metres). The Comeragh / Monavullagh range of mountains, together with Knockmealdowns, convey a remoteness which encourages exploration; yet they are immediately accessible both in terms of their height and the time taken to get there from any part of the county. Here, nature is allowed full expression in a marvellously unspoiled environment. The peninsulas each side of the county, capped by Brownstown Head in the east and Helvic Head in the west, have the same breezy, invigorating atmosphere and charming fishing villages, but are quite different in character. The distinctly Celtic and Irish speaking area in the west will introduce the visitor to a unique taste of old Irish culture in a wonderfully wild landscape. The eastern peninsula is more reminiscent of Norman and English influences, with its wood-clad hills and sheltered coves. The coast between the two peninsulas shows yet another aspect of this remarkably beautiful and varied county.
