This is followed by a full directory for every town and village, giving the names and details for all office- holders, professionals, merchants and tradesmen, as well as a full alphabetical directory of farmers and other residents not listed by trade. There is a detailed introduction to each town and village, with information about the economy, history, religion, railways, post, and general character of the place. It includes an extended treatment for the borough of Wexford, and the towns of , and . The book finishes with an index of places, a list of fairs and markets, and includes many commercial advertisements.

It is in the Province of Leinster. Wicklow is its Northern boundary. It is bounded on the South by the Atlantic ^j,, _ „ _„ Ocean; on the East by St. George's Channel. •^ and on the West by Carlow, , and , The greatest length of the County, North and South is 55 miles ; the greatest breadth is 34 miles ; and the area in acres is 575,700. In remote times Wexford was inhabited by tribes known as Fir-bolgs, who were subdued by the . The Danes con- trived to secure a foothold in it, and many traces of them still remain, including the name Weisford, or Wexford. The British connexion with Ireland began at Wexford in May, 1169. At Bag-an-bun promontory, on the Southern Coast, 400 men landed tinder command of Robert Fitzstephen and Maurice Fitzgerald. The invasion was invited by Dermod M'Murrough, King of Leinster, who, by severity and oppressive rule, made himself so unpopular with his own subjects that he was com- pelled to fly his kingdom to escape the wrath of O'Rourke, Prince of Breffny, whose wife he had carried away. O'Rourke's cause was espoused by Roderic O'Connor, King of Connaught. M'Murrough, with the concurrence of Heniy II., entered into a contract with Richard, Earl Strongbow, the terms of which were that the latter should receive all the land of Leinster and M'Murrough's only daughter, Eva, in marriage. Strongbow not having immediately busied himself with preparation for the expedition, M'Murrough became impatient, and secured the aid of Fitzstephen and his Lieutenant. The price arranged upon was a grant of the town of Wexford and two cantreds of land. According to tradition, the promontory of Bag-an-bun received its name from the two ships, the Bagg and the Bunn, in which Fitzstephen made the voyage across the Channel. Strongbow, having heard news of Fitzstephen's expedition, followed him to Wexford in 1171, with a force which included many Flemings, who had been driven from their own country 78 MAIN STREET, WEXFORD.

At the death of M'Murrough, his title to the lands of Leinster was confirmed by Henry II. In six years from the time of his accession Strongbow died, leaving, as the fruit of the marriage with Eva, a daughter, Isabella, who, during fourteen years, remained as the ward of Henry II., and was, by him, given in marriage to William, Earl Marshall, who succeeded to the Leinster inheritance. Of this marriage there were fivedaughters , amongst whom, lacking a male heir, the lands were divided. In the war of the Catholic Confederation, beginning in 1641,. the people of the county took an active part, and spent a large amount of money in fortifying their principal strongholds. Cromwell arrived in 1649, ar*d succeeded in gaining complete possession. The cause of James II. against William and Mary, 1688-1692, had many sympathisers in Wexford. The were enforced with such stringency as to bring about the Rebellion of 1798. The principal and most hotly-contested battles between the people and the Royal troops were fought in Wexford. To this day there is scarcely a resident of the county who has not a story to tell in connection with it that came to him from an eye-witness, a participator, or the son of a participator. The student of archaeology will find, in every part of the , much to attract him. Along the shore may be traced a line of ruined castles, which were built by the Eng- lish settlers for the purpose of protection. The original number of these was 120. In times of invasion watch-fires were lighted on the towers, and signals passed from one to another. The ruins of these grim sentinels, most of them exceedingly pictur- esque, greatly enrich the soft and romantic landscapes of the Southern division. Ruined abbeys and churches, a few of them numbered among the finest in Ireland, are still in admirable preservation. Some of these remains tell of great possessions, and the lands in their vicinity bear the mark, even in the present day, of careful tilling. Numerous churches and religious establishments in the vicinity of Wexford and through the South have entirely dis- appeared ; even the sites of many of them are almost forgotten. The antiquarian interest of the county is still further increased by the raths found in various places. These, with their deep moats and overgrowth of shrubbery and vines, often supply a lovely feature of scenic beauty. W. & Q.

AGRICULTURAL INTERESTS, MARKETS, FAIRS, &c SEXFORD is called " the model county," and, in many " respects, deserves the appellation. As an agricultural county it chiefly claims attention at the present time. The , which is of a cold, clayey nature, is not equal in ferti- lity to that of Kilkenny, but owing to the shelter received by the mountains on the northern and western borders, it is better adapted for tillage. The range of crops includes , , , potatoes, turnips, mangel-wurzel and beans. Before the "damp seasons " wheat-growing engaged a considerable amount of attention from farmers. In 1862, of 235,826 acres under tillage, there were 21,881 acres of wheat, 65,899 of oats, 39,816 of barley, 5,911 of beans, 24,284 of potatoes, 18,370 of turnips, and 2,107 of mangel-wurzel. During late years, wheat has not been a profitable crop for either farmer or miller, and has been a cause of discouragement to both. Barley-growing has been more steadily persevered in, and large malt-houses have been built at Wexford, New Ross, and Enniscorthy to absorb the production of their several districts. In 1883, of the 575,700 statute acres composing the county, 199,199 acres were under crops, including meadow and clover; 306,187 acres in grass ; 390 acres of fallow, or uncropped arable land ; 10,223 acres under plantations and woods ; 15,948 acres of and marsh ; 18,429 acres of barren mountain land, and 25,324 acres under water, roads, fences, &c. In 1884 there were, under wheat, 4,510 acres ; oats, 49,646 ; barley, 35,487; bere and rye, 34 ; beans and peas, 2,873; potatoes, 22,110; turnips, 18,876 ; mangel wurzel and beet-root, 3>l6o ; carrots, parsnips, and other green crops, 1,041 ; cabbage 1,254 ; vetches and rape, 84. Total under tillage, 139,075 ; meadow and clover, 60,136. Total extent under crops, 199,211 acres, showing an increase over the previous year of 12 acres. The live stock statistics for 1884 show that there were in the county 26,148 horses, including those under one year old ; 1,513 mules ; 7,960 donkeys ; 36,892 milch cows ; 22,763 two years' old and upwards ; 30,509 one year old and under two years ; 29,533 under one year old. Total number of , 119,697. Total number of , 127,721. Total number of pigs, 71,401. Total number of goats, 6,045. Total number of , 547,152. The improvements in agricultural machinery have been successfully brought under the notice of the farmers by means of district farming societies. Improvements in the breed of cattle and swine have been effected by similar agencies. In butter-making methods, the average standard of excellence is not yet as high as it should be, but the prospects of the imme- PRESS, WEXFORD.

application. 13 diate future are hopeful. Opportunities for the export of cattle to the English markets have been increased. There is a weekly steamer service between Wexford and , and Wexford and Bristol, and the Dublin, Wicklow and Wexford Railway Company have a daily service. Fowl-raising has be- come an important industry in the county, owing to the facilities for shipment to the large cities of the . Farmers' wives find in this a means of escape from many diffi- culties of housekeeping. Every town, and nearly every village, has its fowl market once or twice a week, and there is no more interesting sight to the stranger than the crowds in the market- places of the villages. The donkey is a popular animal in every part of the county Wexford, and nearly every donkey-car is fitted with a low back seat, which is movable at pleasure. Donkeys have a monopoly of the carrying trade in fowls. They are ready to the hands of farmers' wives, and may be used at all seasons without interfering with the operations in which the horse takes such a dignified and valuable part. In the market- place the donkey-cars are brought into line without the inter- ference ot distracting formalities, and the sales proceed in a fairly rapid manner, a fact which is due in a marked degree to the competition of buyers. This is so keen that farmers' wives are frequently met miles from the markets, and tempted to dis- pose of their fowls by the road-side. The weather is the only influence that damps the ardour of the fowl speculator. As the greater part of the fowls are killed and drawn before shipment, in hot weather, he is restrained by the fear of loss by spoiling in transit to London. The markets of the county have many novel features. They are attended by men and women to whom it is the business of life to go from one to another, and spread out cheap wares. Brogue-makers display their handiwork on single boards, stretched from trestles, and upon donkey-carts ; glass and delf repose upon straw and hay, often in the middle of the roadway; perambulating clothiers lay out the contents of huge chests under lightly constructed tents. Hawkers stand upon their carts and imitate the methods of auctioneers in disposing of odd dozens of room-paper, and dado remnants ; women with coarse flannels and yarns, tinsmiths with kettles and saucepans, toy dealers with jumping jacks, roving confectioners, and onion venders—all of these, and more, attend the village markets, and serve to enliven them by droll and original sayings. The fairs throughout the county are numerous, in this respect forming a striking contrast to the condition of things one hundred years ago. Well attended fairs and markets are to a town or village what water is to a mill-wheel. They put The London Broken Tea, ... at Is. 8A per lb.

In most instances additional fairs have brought additional business to the towns, but there are instances in which the desire for extension has exceeded the requirements of the district, the effect being to injure the character of the established fairs.

TRADE, FISHERIES, MANUFACTURES, &.C. jjRADE has been steadily improving at the principal centres of the county for some time past. In most of the towns, small and large, eligible shops and stores for new ventures are difficult to find. This is all the more remark- able considering that so many persons get into business who have but a primitive notion of business principles. There is a general complaint by the heads of the old houses that the new men are " destroying trade," but in spite of this, and of tardy payments, fortunes continue to be made in unpretentious estab- lishments. Wherever the lands of the surrounding country are good, the general country merchant finds it profitable to keep the several departments of his business well stocked. Commer- cial travellers throng the country hotels, and are to be seen every day, bag-in-hand, passing from shop to shop inviting orders. They know the state of trade in the county very well, and there are few towns or villages considered unworthy of solicitation. The shipping trade of the county is not what it was in the " good old times," when steamers did not enter into competition. Although a maritime county, it does not now possess tour foreign-going vessels. is too uncertain to encourage the building of large vessels, and New Ross can suit its requirements by charter. Of smaller coasting vessels there is a goodly number. They are chiefly engaged in the coal trade, which has been greatly increased at Wexford by the in- land carrying facilities afforded by the Dublin, Wicklow and Wexford Railway. A still further increase of this trade is expected from the branch railway to New Ross. The fisheries give employment to a large number of men, but the owners of boats are not willing to admit that the per centage of profit is commensurate with the capital sunk. Twenty- five craft, smacks, luggers and cots, engage in troll-fishing from four to fifteen miles off Wexford Harbour, and are owned in Wexford. From Cahore Point to , a distance of about twenty miles, is the fishing ground of Wexford. All kinds of flat fish and turbot are caught, but very few .

Mr. William Armstrong, of Wexford, who is a boat owner himself, is considered a good authority on fishing and its profits, and he says that the failure to make the Wexford boats pay is due to the fact that the crews are too strong for the catch. The men persist in fol- lowing an old custom of hauling in the nets, which requires more hands and greater labour. The Wexford crew consists of six men, whereas in Dublin and Waterford it is only three men and a boy. The division of profits at Wexford is two shares to the owner of the boat, and share and share to the men. An effort was made to induce the crews to take in the nets over the bows, according to the Dublin system, but without success. A considerable improvement in the helps to the coast fishery has been made by the erection of a new pier at Carnsore, at a cost of £2,200. This pier is expected to be of great service m enabling fishermen to try their luck in the vicinity of the luscar Light, which is about seven miles from Carnsore Point. P?"°ck are to be found there in abundance. Some mackerel nsning has been done on this ground, but by lines only. The pier will encourage the extensive use of boats in this fisher)'- l ff,"sner' men at make a fair catch of lobsters, and have a tolerably safe refuge, but the fishermen find their harbour so difficult of access in rough weather that they some- times have to on to Wicklow. The fisheries of the county are fairly remunerative. They were very much more so within the memory of many of those who work them. From New Ross to Cheek Point, between 600 and 700 men find employment during the season, occupying the rest of the time in tilling small farms for^them- selves, or doing ordinary labouring work for others. The: Slaney salmon and fishery extends from the Point of Park to Enniscorthy, about thirteen miles English, and gives employ- ment to about 100 men.

HUNTING, COURSING, RACING, BOATING, ANG- LING. ATHLETIC SPORTS, CRICKET AND LAWN TENNIS. jlEXFORD is a good hunting county, but not so good as Kilkenny, as it is not so open. The fences are stiffer and more difficult to " negotiate." It has a great many high banks and double fences. The banks are all sound, and it rarely occurs that there are bad falls. No " croppers " as with the " Wards." If the horse and rider tumble they usually get safe over the grip, and are not buried as in the Ward country. The residents of the county have long sustained a character for lavish hospitality on meet clays. It is particularly worthy of note that in the memory of the oldest inhabitant, no death has occurred by accident in the hunting field. The ladies of the olden days always made a strong muster, but in modern times they are much fewer in number. The Wexford hunt was established about the beginning of the present century, by the late Colonel Pigott, of Slevoy Castle. He held the mastership until 1847 or 1848. In 1840, Captain James Harvey, of Park House, kept a pack of fox hounds, and hunted some of the far covers, and part of the present country, conjointly with Colonel Pigott. About 1844 Captain Harvey gave up his part of the country to the late Mr. Daniel V. Beatty, of Borodale, Enniscorthy, who then held the mastership of the entire county—having taken Colonel Pigott's territory on his resignation—and continued to hold it until his death in 1881. He hunted two days a week with one pack of hounds until 1864. or 1865, and from that time until his death, three days a week, with two packs. The present master is Captain Thomas J. Walker, of Tykillen, Wexford ; Captain Maher is treasurer, and • Mr. Frank Boxwcll, of Kerlogue, is secretary. Two packs are kept, one dog pack and one bitcli pack. The kennels are at Tykillen. The principal coverts are : Upton, the Island, Wells, Bally- vudock, Hill, Dranagh, Ballinkeele, and the Gorey, GOLD MEDAL TABLE WATERS.

Mr. William Whitney, of Mount Pleasant, Wexford, is the master of a pack of harriers, the formation of which by Mr. Samuel Tanner, of Greenfield, Wexford, dates back over fifty years. Originally it was called the Killinick Harriers. The name was changed by the late Mr. Raymond Rowe, of Bally- cross, Wexford, to that of the Ballycross Harriers. Mr. Frank King succeeded Mr. Rowe as master. The pack consists of from fourteen to fifteen couples of hounds, and has hunted the baronies of Forth and Bargy, always receiving the warm support of the farmers. The present secretary is Mr. James Codd, of Whitestown, Wexford. Mr. Edward J. Nunn, of Silverspring, Wexford, keeps about twenty beagles for hunting on foot. He has had the pack some four years, goes out three or four times a week in company with a. few friends, and keeps exclusively to the baronies of Forth and Bargy. He finds plenty of hares, for the farmers like to follow the beagles, and help to preserve the game. Sir Thomas Esmonde and the Hon. George Stopford keep private packs of harriers.

The stated coursing matches in the county are held on the Marquis of Ely's Hook Estate, and on the estate of Captain Barrett, . The meetings at both places come off in March and November of each year, are usually well attended and afford fair sport. The Hook and County Wexford Club manages the match at Hook. The officers of it are—The Marquis of Ely, president ; Mr. Andrew Barden, Corse, Fethard, treasurer ; and Mr. John Murray, South-street, New Ross, secretary. An effort is made to preserve the hares, but if they leave four or five farms they are killed. These farms are in the centre of the estate. The Marquis encourages the sport, but does not favour the matches with his personal presence. The Hook Club consists of about thirty members. The Kilmanock Club manages the matches at Dunbrody Abbey. Captain Samuel Barrett is president, Mr. Laurence Murphy, of ballykerogue, Priest-Haggard, is secretary and treasurer. There are twenty- five members. Captain Barrett takes great interest in coursing, but does not engage in it with his own dogs. The coursing ground is about 400 acres in extent, and, of its size, is consi- dered one of the best in Ireland. It takes in the estate of Capt. Barrett. The Hook Club has been established over eight years, and the Kilmanock has passed its third season. I am indebted to Mr. John J. Doyle, of New Ross, for much information on coursing. He is a keen sportsman, and keeps some good grey- hounds. There is not much coursing done in the vicinity of Wexford. Twenty-five years ago it was very popular, and well-attended meetings were held on the lands, two and a-half miles from town, over an extent of 2,500 acres. Mr. Cadwalader Wilson, the late Lord Lurgan, Mr. W. H. Massy, the late Mr. James Gallwey, Mr. William White, Dublin, and the late Mr. William Gray, of Ballybay, were among those who engaged in and encouraged the sport. Mr. Joseph Tanner keeps a couple of hounds, and is now the only Wexfordian who openly courses. The cause of the decline is said to have been the difficulty of preserving the hares on the Slob from the dogs of the un- authorized lovers of coursing, who had made a habit of disturb- ing them as early as three and four o'clock in the morning. Wexford has acquired considerable reputation for its racing cattle. Among those who keep good horses are Mr. Michael A. Maher, Captain Maher, Captain Walker, Mr. William H. West W. B.

i IB. ZLJ! H! HJy JJ North Main Street, WEXFORDWEXFORD . Captain Richards, Mr. Peter Murphy, and Mr. John Williams. The only hunt-races are held annually over the North Slob, Wexford Course, in June. Races of a minor character are held at , Ferns, Enniscorthy, and elsewhere, mainly to give greater attraction to holiday amusements. Boating is an exercise which has reached its highest degree of popularity at Wexford and New Ross. Enniscorthy, not many years ago, had a Club and plenty of boats ; but the depth of water in the season was not sufficient to keep up the enthusiasm of the youthful members. In the Wexford and New Ross special departments of the book fuller reference is made to the boat clubs and their records. Anglers will find in many parts of Wexford splendid facilities for the enjoyment of the " gentle art," especially if they can carry in their satchels permits from the lords of the soil. The Slaney and Barrow are noble rivers for sport. Full information is given on this subject in the different town and village divisions of the Guide. In various parts of the County athletic sports are maintained with increasing vigour. Wexford, New Ross, Enniscorthy, Gorey, Newtownbarry, and Ferns take the lead in stimulating the young men to excel in manly games. Cricket-playing is not popular in the Town of Wexford, save - among the Students of St. Peter's College. There is a flourish- ing club at Newtownbarry—the best in the County. Taghmon, , Ballycarney, , and Tintern also have clubs. Lawn tennis is the favorite game of the County. There is no regular club, and none seems necessary to keep up the interest. So admirable a medium of attraction to young people of both sexes, and excuse for sociability among elder ones, who watch the game, must needs have a long and happy reign- As an active amusement, in which ladies can indulge without being considered masculine, in which men may join and yet be manly, and which yields an excellent chance for a good hearty romp without accusation of romping, Wexford society, with good sense, has welcomed and deferred to lawn tennis. In a drive through the county, it is a notable fact that almost every com- fortable residence, with sufficient land, has a level bit dedicated to the pursuit of health in this simple and enjoyable fashion. Comparatively little is required beyond a well-rolled and ample space, and maintaining this in first-rate condition necessitates , only a trifling expense. Among the finest grounds are those of the Hon. Mrs. Deane-Morgan, at Arkandrisk, on the Slaney ; Dr. Boxwell, Butlerstown Castle ; Mr. William B. Nunn, ; Mr. John F.

FORTH AND BARGV. |HE baronies of Forth and Bargy are worthy of separate mention, more on account of traditional peculiarities than of any existing difference between their inhabitants and those of the rest of the county. Long before the invasion of Strongbow, owing to the nearness of these baronies to the Coast of , many natives of that country crossed St. George's Channel, and remained in Forth and Bargy. They brought with them habits which have outlived the ages since. The followers of Strongbow re-settled the baronies, possessed the fertile plains, and flourished in the mild climate. Their descendants, to a great extent, gave place to the Cromwellians, but not to the total effacement of their language and customs.. The language, or dialect, has since received a considerable amount of attention at the hands of various writers, most of • whom appear to have had comfort in regarding it as a curious mixture of tongues. Traces of Flemish and Welsh are found in it ; but it is agreed by good authorities that it was chiefly com- posed of the Old English of the Strongbonians. The singularity of the traditional Forth and Bargy customs, seem to have long consisted of straightforwardness, thrift and energy, combined with clock-like regularity at labor. It was, and is still, in some parts, usual with the natives to arise and repair to work at five o'clock in the morning, and to use the middle or heat of the day for sleep, or, in the Forth-Bargy tongue, cntecte. This reasonable arrangement aroused the wonder of the early chroniclers, one of whom, in 1682, declared that the domestic animals and birds shared the noonday nap of their masters. For the last quarter of a century the Forth-Bargy dialect has been silent, its sound only being remembered by some old persons resident near Came. The neat and picturesque costumes of the people have also given way to modern fashions. The men wore short coats, waistcoats, trunk breeches, and round, narrow-brimmed hats. The women, short jackets, sometimes. The following are some of the advantages of Lsverett and Frye's system of business :— Terms Of Payment. As the Prices in our List are calculated to give every advantage to the buyer, the terms of payment are neces- sarily net cash. Family Accounts- Special arrangements can be made with Families desirous of having Accounts or Weekly Books. Delivery of Goods- Goods delivered free. Orders for the "Country delivered, carriage paid, to any Railway Station in Ireland, if ^ur £s arRl upwards. Adulteration Act (35 and 36 Vic. chap. 74). We guarantee the purity and genuineness as represented of every article sold at our Stores. Co-operative Stores- The success of the CIVIL SERVICE, ARMY AXD NAVY, and other Co-operative Stores having been fully realized, arrangements have been made by us with all tho&e houses most noted for the superiority of their goods, to embrace this system in all its integrity to the extent of charging exactly the same prices in those cases where families will comply with the conditions of these establishments, which are very simple, and only require the purchaser to pay for and take away their goods. Our unlimited assortment of every well-known house will prevent any disappointment in supply, and we offer this advantage to families without the usual subscription, and goods will be delivered free of carriage within a limited district if paid for at the time of ordering, avoiding many petty annoyances and expenses in respect to payment of carriage and packages. It will readily be seen that as quality has raised Co-operation to its present estimation, it becomes doubly valuable in the case of local convenience.

From the "CIVIL SERVICE GAZETTE." "Wexford Residents can now obtain their supplies of Groceries, Wines, Spirits, Hottled Ales, &c, upon terms more advan- tageous than at the Co-operative Stores. The Price Lists from LHVERETT & FRYF. compare most favourably with those from the Stores, and the several expenses of ticket-fee, travelling, carriage of goods, and loss by UNDUE purchases, are thereby saved." Wines and Spirits- A selected stock of all the Brands of MESSRS. W. & A. GILBEY'S Wines and Spirits is kept at our Thirty-six branches. Price Lists can be obtained on application. No better guarantee of QUALITY and VALUE can be given than the fact that about every Eighteenth bottle of Wine, and every Fortieth bottle of Spirits, consumed in the United kingdom, are supplied from W. & A Gilbey's Stock. This Statement is based upon the Govern- ment Returns. LEVERETT & FRYE, 20 NORTH MAIN STREET, WEXPORD. 29 trimmed with narrow lace ; petticoats trimmed with colored braids, and a kcrcher on the head. That one litttle corner of Ireland should have so long con- tinued a distinct community, using a language all but forgotten by the rest of English-speaking peoples, was mainly due to the isolation secured by topographical conditions. Wexford Harbour on the east, and Bannow Bay on the south, indent the coast, and between these there is a rugged barrier, the roads leading over which are few and uninviting, and there is no navigable stream flowing through. Forth Mountain is visible from all parts of Forth and Bargy, its peaks, Carrick-a-Dee, Carrick-a- Shinna and Carrick-a-Foyle, being profiled upon the northern sky like the " features " of a well-known face, recognizable in any light. The mountain has many small freehold farms, whose crops have been raised between rocks by hardy and determined effort. A new and curious interest has been given to the grim heaps of rocks which crown this mountain by a discovery in July, 1884. While men were engaged in the removal of stones to Wexford Harbour a small square chamber was disclosed. In it were found an earthenware urn and human bones. Further investiga- tion revealed other chambers and more bones. It is said that (he stones covering this rude mausoleum were being removed, some years ago by a native of the mountain for house building,, and that he was stopped in the work by an accident which, resulted in a severely fractured limb. Forth and Bargy, as already stated, have had many chroniclers, who have said and sung much of their pleasant bean fields and innocent pastoral life. Of the number, perhaps, none are more interesting than Jacob Poole, of Growtown, a member of the Society of Friends, and a gentle and intelligent native of Forth. A published collection- of his manuscripts includes a glossary of words of the old dialect and several Yola. songs. SMITH'S

ANY of the non-intoxicating beverages introduced as substitutes for alcoholic drinks tend, either in form or flavour, to directly frustrate the cause theMy professedly serve. The cups -which cheer but do not inebriate are not so common, but when a really palatable and wholesome drink of the kind is found , it should meet with all the encouragement temperance advocates can accord. This, at least, would appear to be the view of Mr. 8. C. HALL, the venerable apostle of total abstinence. In a late number of Social Soles he says:—"I have looked about for something to drink, and I think I have found it—pleasant, palatable, health- ful. I refer to the Ginger Ale manufactured by Cantrell & Cochrane (of Dublin and Belfast). I know of no drink so delicious, and I believe it to be as healthful as it is agreeable."

BOROUGH OF WEXFORD. [Population 12,163 in 1881.] rHE borough of Wexford is situated at the mouth of the . It is 92^ miles from Dublin by the Dublin, "Wicklow and Wexford Railway, and log^C by the Great Southern and Western Railway via Carlow, Bagnalstown and Ballywil- liam. A broad and sightly harbour spreads out before it, which gives entrance to shipping from St. George's Channel. Ireland has few seaports that impress more favourably at full tide'. The town rises from a quay nearly 1,000 yards in length, to a con- siderable height, its main thoroughfare beginning on the level and running along the side of a hill, frequently in such narrow limits as to barely permit vehicles to pass each other. This peculiarity belongs chiefly to the Main Street, which contains a majority of the business houses. At first sight it suggests hampered energies, but closer acquaintance with the people, and their quiet and orderly methods of business, gives to the narrow street an attractiveness which has to be experienced to be understood. It is something to be able to sit quietly of a summer's evening in the coffee room of White's excellently kept hotel, and get the full benefit of the concert in the adjoining Hall ; and it is a strong incentive to the development of social feeling to be able from a window at one side of the street, to distinguish the title of the book which supplies Sunday reading for the head of the family in the house at the opposite side. Wexford has its broad streets also, but they have not yet suc- ceeded in drawing to them many merchants from the old and highly favoured thoroughfare. THE ARCADi:

45 NORTH MAIN STREET, 57 Connection with the left bank of the Slaney is secured by means of a long and well constructed metal bridge. Waesford or Weisford was the name given to the town by the Danes, the signification being—washed by the tide. Its history prior to their settlement is considerably involved in doubt. The Danes protected themselves in their occupation by walls, and until the arrival of the British, under Robert Fitzstephen, in 1169, had been tolerably secure in their stronghold. Surrender was made to him after three days' hard fighting'. In 1171 Strongbow arrived, and by virtue of his agreement with Dermod M'Murrough, King of Leinster, became master. During the wars of the Roses, Wexford was taken by Sir John Butler. He was dispossessed in 1462 by the Earl of Desmond, whose chal- lenge to arms in the open field he accepted. In 1641 Wexford embraced the cause of the Catholic Confederation, and had a trained force within the walls of 800 men. A large amount was spent in fortification, and the channel was blocked by a ship purchased in Dublin for the purpose. A fort was erected at the Rosslare side of the harbour, and another at Raven Point, called Fort St. Margaret. A Flemish shipbuilder, Anthony Van Kaatts, was imported. He built several ships in a dockyard near the West Gate, at a point now known variously as " The Cat Strand," and " Cat's Strand,1' a corruption which indicates to the mind of the innocent native a favourite nocturnal resort for cats. Cromwell arrived in 1649 from Drogheda. During several days the military governor of the town, Colonel Sinnott, kept up- a correspondence with Cromwell, endeavouring to obtain such terms of capitulation as would be favourable to the inhabitants. It was desired that the people should be allowed to practice the Catholic religion, that the regular and secular clergy should be permitted to hold their livings, that the bishop should be per- mitted to govern the diocese, that the garrison might withdraw with the honours of war, that those of the inhabitants who desired to do so, might be allowed to leave with their goods, chattels, ships, or military stores, that the municipal privilege might not be curtailed, that the burgesses might be eligible to hold property elsewhere in Ireland, that those of them afterwards desiring to leave might be allowed to sell their property, and receive safe conduct to England or elsewhere, that the inhabi- tants might be regarded in all respects as free-born English subjects, and that there should be an absolute amnesty for " all past transactions." Cromwell declined to accede to the condi- tions of surrender. Among the commissioners sent to him by the governor was James Stafford, Captain of the Castle, and it is believed that through his connivance Cromwell was enabled to dispense with conditions.

On perceiving this the Cromwellian troops, in the words of their commander, " ran violently up the town and stormed it. And when they were come to the market place, the enemy making a stiff resistance, our forces brake them, and then put all to the sword that came in their way. Two boatfuls of the enemy, attempting to escape, being oppressed by numbers, sank, whereby were drowned near 300 of them. I believe, in all, there was lost of the enemy not many less than 2,000, and I believe not 20 of yours from first to last of the siege." In the Rebellion of 1798 all the records in the Office of the Clerk of the Peace were destroyed. There is reason to believe that Wexford was one of the first towns in Ireland to receive a charter of incorporation. Evidence of a deductive nature is found to show that it had a charter in 1173. In the division of possessions among the granddaughters of Strongbow Wexford was given to Joan, wife of Warren de Mountchesney. Her son- in-law, Adomar de Valence, granted a charter in 1318, which was confirmed in I4iiby Henry VIII. Several charters were afterwards conferred upon the sovereign, burgesses, bailiffs, &c, conceding to them a continuance of the " liberties, free customs, and claims " of their ancestors. Among the number was one from James I. James II. also granted a charter, but after the Revolution, which put a final end to that monarch's chance of reascending the English Throne, the Wexford Corporation resumed the use of that of James I., which bears date 19th of January, 1608. It begins by confirming the bailiffs and burgesses in their jurisdiction over the ancient limits of land and water, which comprised the free corporate borough of "Wexford. The corporate body was to consist of one mayor, two bailiffs, and twenty-four free burgesses. The mayor and bailiffs were to be elected annually by the free burgesses. Vacancies among the free burgesses were to be filled by the mayor and bailiffs. The mayor was, by virtue of his office, a Justice of the Peace, Esche- ator, Coroner, Clerk of the Market, and Master of the Assays. The charter also constituted a guild of merchants, and provided for the holding of a court to determine actions of various kinds. It specified that all ships entering the Port should unload, but not to the prejudice of the ancient liberties of New Ross. Two fairs each year were to be held, one at the Feast of St. Peter, and the other at All Saints', and the three following days, and two markets each week, on Wednesday and Saturday. The Merchants' Guild was to consist of one mayor, two constables, RICHARD SHAW,

The Guild was to have power of receiving and certifying all statutes of recognizance, &c. Grant was made to the Corporation of castles, gardens, founda- tions, lands, tenements, meadows, pastures, and other property in consideration of ^10 current money of Ireland. The Corpora- tion was to receive rents to the value of £40 per year, and no more. Reservation was made to the Crown of the right to levy a tax of three pence in the pound upon all merchandise imported or exported by foreign merchants, and twelve pence in the pound upon all wares exported and imported, and to collect certain customs, called " Cockett." In 1841 Wexford, having then less than 12,000 inhabitants, was, by the Irish Muncipal Corporation Act, shorn of its corporate dignities. A strong fight was made by Alderman John Greene, J.P., and the then Mayor, Mr. Sheppard Jeffares, led by the Member of Parliament for the borough, Sir Thomas Esmonde, to secure for Wexford immunity from the sweeping provisions of the law. A new charter was ultimately obtained from the Government, but the limits of the town were restricted. The boundary under the James Charter reached at the northern end to a little stream flowing through Stonybatter into the Slaney at Carcur. The southern boundary •was a stream which skirts the demesne of Rocklands. In the altered state of things, the Mayor is an ex officio member of the public boards, including that of the County Lunatic Asylum, but much of the power possessed by the holders of the office under ancient charters has been withheld. The Mayor was formerly first magistrate of county and borough. Now his magisterial powers are confined to the borough. He holds court once a week, on Thursday. He has power to deal only with cases of conscience, drunkenness and abusive language. Assault and larceny cases are tried at petty sessions, which are held weekly, on Wednesday, at the county court-house. The Mayor may attend there and sit as a justice. The corporation meets monthly at the Tholsel, in the Bull Ring, and quarterly at the Town Hall, in Com Market. The general markets of Wexford continue to be held on Wednesday and Saturday, as provided by the charter of James I. In the season there is a market every day for corn, hay and straw. The number of the fairs has been increased. A fair for cattle, sheep, pigs and horses is now held once a month. W.

This is, unfortunately, a faithful description of the harbour of Wexford. The banks which obstruct its entrance shift so frequently as to render it difficult to accurately trace their movements. Not many years ago reports showed only from three to four feet of water on the bar. In July, 1884, it had improved to eleven feet six inches. An idea of the nature of the banks may be formed from the fact that the Dogger, one of them, five or six years since, was two hundred yards from the mainland. Since then it has come in and joined it. At the period when Wexford enjoyed its greatest foreign trade, the Hantoon channel was open. Now it is closed for trading purposes. At the time of the very low state of the water upon the bar, the hope of Wexford was centred at Greenore Point, or what is now known as . A Government loan of ^75iOoo was procured on the strength of a recommendation by Captain Calver, R.N., Hydrographer to the Admiralty, and Mr. Rendel, C.E., Consulting Engineer to the Public Works Loans Commissioners of England. Of this amount/61,000 was ex- pended in building a breakwater at Greenore Point, 1,500 feet in length. The harbour at present is in a condition to give refuge to a certain class of vessels, but it is said that it cannot be generally used until the breakwater has been extended 220 feet further. In anticipation of the speedy completion of the project, a line of railway was built from Wexford to Rosslare Harbour, a distance of nine miles, at a cost of ,£120,000. The line has been opened for traffic, but the visions of a cross-channel trade from the new harbour are yet unrealized. The distance from Rosslare Harbour to is 58 miles, to Milford 64 miles—48 miles less than that from Waterford to Milford. The prospect of making Rosslare Harbour a station for steam ships trading between New York and Milford was an attractive one, and it was easy to use it as a basis for the opinion that the lands in the vicinity of the Harbour would soon be covered with the stores, warehouses and shops of the " New Wexford." There is no second opinion as to the great benefits which would be derived from such a harbour as that which was projected for Rosslare ; but there has been a diversity of opinion as to the possibility of making the present unfinished harbour a thorough success. A harbour of refuge on the coast of Wexford would be of inestimable value to shipping. Scores of ships have gone to pieces because of the lack of it. Rosslare Harbour has a. Maltster, Corn* Coal

ttie be^t 65 regularly-constituted authority and Board of Commissioners consisting of three of the Directors of the Waterford and Wex- ford Railway, the Mayor of Wexford, the Member for the Borough of Wexford, one member nominated by the Wexford Harbour Commissioners, and one member nominated by the Board of Trade. The Waterford and Wexford Line is known locally as the Ballygeary Railway. The original intention was that it should connect Waterford with Wexford, but whether it vwill ever be extended beyond its present terminus is a question Which the future must decide. While " New Wexford " remains unbuilt it is agreeable to be able to note it as a fact that (he shipping trade of " Old Wex- ford" is showing substantial improvement. Mr. Wiiliam Coghlan, J.P., who was for many years collector of the port, may be regarded as a good authority on this subject. He re- members it since 1838. It was then very promising. From that year to 1847 it was in a transition state. Between 1847 and 1874 there was a period of considerable prosperity. The highest point of success was reached when the record showed thirty large sailing vessels, principally engaged in the Black Sea trade. Steamers ultimately crowded' out the sailing ships ; but the decrease in the number of large vessels has been more than counterbalanced by the increase from year to year, during the past decade, in the coasting trade. The Dublin, Wicklow and Wexford Railway and its connections have given a strong stimulus to this development, and the opening of the light rail- way between Newtownbarry and Tullow, County Carlow, will be an additional help. There are at present 53 coasting vessels, one screw steamer, and two tug-boats, owned in Wexford. This calculation does not take account of the fishing boats of all kinds which carry crews numbering about 150 men. There is a dock-yard at the southern end of the quay, which is capable of taking upon its slip a vessel of 360 tons register. The late Mr. John Edward Redmond, M.P., whose public services have been commemorated by a large monument near the Railway Station, was the builder of the dock-yard. It was completed in 1832, and the first vessel was launched from it in 1834. The present dock-yard company consists of Mr. Jasper W. Walsh and Mr. P. Lambert, and began its career in 1867. In July, 1884, it gave employment to about 90 men, of whom 40 were ship-carpenters and 20 smiths. It confines its building operations to wooden vessels. In a chapter on the Harbour of Wexford and its shipping trade, it will not be inappropriate to give an account of the .Slob Land Reclamation which has been done in modern times. The late Mr. John Edward Redmond was the first to begin the BISHOP'S SBate gistiltaj WEXFORD,

When a very young man he, at his own expense, re- claimed the space between Paul Quay and the end of the Dock Yard. The first Act of Parliament for reclamation purposes was obtained in 1846. Between that time and 1852, when a second Act was procured which repealed the first, a portion of the reclamation was done on the north side of the harbour. The chief partners in it were Sir Edward Grogan, Bart., Mr. John Edward Redmond, and Mr. William Dargan. The total amount reclaimed on the north side, under both \cts, was 2,331 statute acres, of which Sir Edward Grogan held 926 acres, Messrs. Weldon, 656 ; Representatives of Prendergast, 619 ; Representa- tives of Cadwalader Wilson, 130. The south side reclamation made a total of 2,276, of which Mr. J. Woodward Stamford holds 1,189 acres, and Messrs. Weldon, 1,087. Most of the lands are worked by the owners, and produce abundantly. The greater portions are under grass. Black oats is a favourite crop, but the ' lands are also adapted to wheat, barley, and green crops. Drainage is effectually maintained by means of pumping engines.

THE CASTLES, WALLS, AND GATES OF WEXFORD. [ROM Danish times the spot now occupied by the Militia Barracks has been the stronghold of Wexford. Before attaining the art of living at peace with their neighbours, it is supposed that the Danes fortified themselves here in one of the characteristic mounds so frequent in the county. Henry II., after entertaining the irish Princes in Dublin, returned to England, in 1172, by way of Wexford and Millford. Before embarking he gave orders to build a castle, and the site of the Danish fort was chosen by the builder, Lord Jeoffreyde Marisco, illegitimate son of Fitzstephen. In fhe " inquisition" taken after the death of Adomar de Valence, mention is made of " One stone castle in which are four towers, roofed with slate, a great keep, and four buildings at the back, thatched with straw." In this castle were confined the hostages of the hostile Septs, in I3S2- Its walls commanded the river, town, and approach from the Barony of Forth. For the still greater security of the inhabitants, three castles of the same size as that now at West- gate, formerly stood within the town walls ; one at John's gate, called John's castle ; one at the corner of Lane, and a third at Crescent Quay, the last two having been removed during the present century. The castle at Westgate is in a good state of preservation, and adds picturesque effect to a distant view of the town. The castle at Oyster Lane was thrown down by the late Mr. Richard Devereux.

The first wails of Wexford were built by the Danes, who were able from their limits to resist for three days the assaults of Fitzstephen. After the influx of Strongbownian settlers the inhabitants found themselves cramped by the ancient boundary, and a new wall was constructed early in the 14th century, by Sir , Governor of Wexford, who also built the castle at West-gate, and assisted the Roches in the re-build- ing of Selskar Abbey. The walls were twenty-two feet high, and four feet thick, of lime and stone, supported on the inside by a rampart of earth 21 feet thick. The outer wall began at the river Slaney, somewhat North of the West-gate, and skirted the town to Paul's quay. Besides the outer wall, there were two dividing the town itself, one running from the boundary to the river, south of the Bull Ring, the other north of Gibsons' Lane, at a place called Oldgate. Extensive remains of the outer wall and rampart may be traced in various quarters of the town, beginning at West-gate, and running to King Street. It forms a part of Mr. Cameron Rogers' house in George Street, and one boundary of his garden for several hundred yards, ending in a tower forty feet high at one side, and forty-five feet at the other, in an almost perfect state of preservation. An old divisional wall forms one side of Wickham's Brewery house, South Main Street, to a depth of about one hundred feet. A second tower, forty feet in height, belonging to the old wall, is at the back of Joe Murphy's forge, in Abbey Street. Still another is in Back Street, which runs from Corn Market to Rowe Street. A large square tower stood at the corner of Rowe Street, on the grounds of the Church of the Immaculate Concep- tion, until 1852, when it was thrown down to give increased space and light to the chancel window. About 150 feet of town wall runs through the grounds of Clarence House, High Street, the residence of Mr. Thomas S. Redmond. Clarence House is built on the site of the Palace of Bishop Caulfield, and is secluded from public view by a range of houses, one of which gives a bow-way to it. The ancient rampart is terraced to the grounds, and has two rows of gigantic specimens of many- coloured fox-glove, one of them fully eight feet high. There is also a conservatory and a mulberry tree of great age, having a second growth from the roots, which has already attained a considerable height. The gates of Wexford were five in number ; West-gate, whose former name was Cow-gate ; John's gate, leading from Corn Market to John Street; St. Peter's gate, near the site of the old Pound ; Bride Street gate, and Castle gate, near the place JOHN EYRE, MANUFACTURER OF MINERAL WATEKS, AND BOTTLER OF GUINNESS'S STOUT, AND BASS AND ALLSOPP'S ALES.; WHITE'S HOTEL, WEXFORD.

In one of the old Corporation leases mention is made of a sixth gate, called Raby's. All the gates were taken down in 1759, and were re-erected in a less substantial fashion after 1798, remaining till 1835, when they were removed on account of being an obstruction to traffic. They were built of wood, and were so light that children could close them.

SELSKAR ABBEY. HIS venerable antiquity is in a labyrinth' of curiously winding streets, and may be reached by so many ways f that it is better not to recommend a specific route. Indeed, to do so would but interfere with the interest and novelty of an effort to arrive at the entrance, using only its grey old tower as a guide. The people of Wexford, without distinc- tion, are courteous to strangers. One of the opportunities afforded for a study of the native civility would be lost if the tourist should fail to go to the Abbey alone. When he has reached a point in his search from which no hope of success seems possible, the amiability of the native instantly manifests itself. Without obtrusiveness, he leaves his own affairs and acts as pilot. From the gate of the Abbey, probably the best and most com- prehensive view is obtained. The restoration, bell-tower—un- restored part—the castle at Westgate, and most of the church- yard may be seen effectively. The origin of Selskar Abbey, as a religious institution, is somewhat involved in doubt, but there is good reason for attributing it to the Danish settlers as the result of their conversion to Christianity. Its restoration and rebuilding as a priory were due to the Roches. Sir Alexander Roche, of Artramont, it is said, fell a victim to the charms of the beautiful daughter of a burgess of Wexford. Though the attachment was mutual his parents disapproved, and to prevent the alliance without seeming to do so, induced him to become a Crusader. After years of adventure and varying fortune, he returned home to claim his bride, the obdurate parents having died in the meantime. A great disappointment awaited him. Believing him dead or faithless, the burgess's daughter had retired to a convent In his grief he vowed celibacy, endowed the monastery, and became its prior. In memory of the wars in which he had been engaged, he gave to it the name of St. Sepulchre, and this in the changes of time has come to be the St. Selskar of the present day. It is a matter of interest that the first treaty with the English was signed at Selskar Abbey, 1169, when the town of Wexford ESTABLISHED 1818. JEFFARES BROTHERS,

ESTABLISHED 1818. 73 surrendered to Robert Fitzstephen. Raymond le Gros and Basilica, sister of Strongbow, were the first persons of English birth married within its walls. In 1463 it was used as a Parlia- ment House by the Earl of Desmond, and laws were made which referred to repairs of the walls and castle. In 1649, on the occasion of the sacking of Wexford, the abbey was demolished by Cromwell, who took the fine peal of bells from the tower and carried them to Chester, whence they were trans- ferred to a church in Liverpool, and remain there until this day.. There is a tradition that in lieu of these belts the freemen of Wexford received the freedom of Liverpool and exemption from the dues of that port. The ancient tower which once held the bells is much decayed at the top, though through care and kindly restoration, its lower part is strong and good. Its walls are from six to eight feet thick. The spiral staircase leading to the summit is from the vestry through a door scarce four feet high. In many places the steps are almost an inclined plane, and the descent is far more difficult than the upward climb. The view from the summit is well worth a little exertion. Although the churchyard abounds in tombs and tablets, no dates earlier than 1600 are visible. Three slabs of the earlier part of the 17th century are set in a recess at the base of the tower, or, as it is commonly called, " the Castle." One of these bears an inscription, much worn, which, though fluent, gives little information. It reads in the old English style, thus :—

Further to the left a coffin-shaped flag bears the semblance of a man's head, and beneath it a curious device. The fragments of a stone coffin stand at the head of a grave near by, which at a former period may have been covered with the inscribed flag. Of the unrestored por- tion, three Gothic arches and two gables remain standing. The window in the further gable has a broad Saxon arch. To the sides cling remnants of traceries which once filled it. As a burial-place the grounds are used equally by Catholics and Protestants. sms*s & , BAKERS, FLOUR AND PROVISION MERCHANTS, BULL RING, WEXFORD.

The interior is comfortable, and possesses an organ of good tone and sufficient proportions. Two galleries on the western end, one over the other, are reached by a stair- case from the vestibule.

CHURCH OF ST. IBERIUS.—I. C. jT the highest point of North Main Street, in the heart of the business portion of the town, stands the place of worship called by.the name of Wexford's Patron Saint, whose monastery, in the fourth century, flourished on the island of Beg-Erin, and who, prior to the arrival of St. Patrick, held ecclesiastical rule over Leinster. The building has a fine front, but owing to the narrowness of the thoroughfare, the full effect of it is lost. The pointed roof is flanked by two broad wings. From the centre gable rises an open octagon tower, with a clock, which strikes the hours. The church is built of brick, and stuccoed. Red and blue bricks, alternated, cap each window, and form a circle around the face of the clock, thus giving a distinct character to the structure. The centre door is shaded by a deep porch, which is accessible from three gates. Inside the Church one is impressed by the fact that the architect determined upon providing good and sufficient light. Breadth rather than length, and an ample gallery on three sides, are comfortable peculiarities of the building. A leisurely inspection of the mural tablets in the galleries brings to observation many names closely connected with the history and interests of modern Wexford. In the right gallery is one to Captain the Hon. John William Hely-Hutchinson, who died of fever at Scutari. Mrs. Martha Kidd, daughter of the celebrated Caesar Colclough, is next commemorated. There is a memorial to Major Valloton, who, during the anti- tithe payers' insurrection in 1793, was killed on Windmill Hill, where a monument stands, which was erected by the Corpora- tion of Wexford. A lozenge-shaped tablet, surrounded by coloured marbles, commemorates Colonel Stopford, 1834. A monument to the Venerable John Elgee, Archdeacon of Leighlin, and Rector of Wexford and Rathaspeck, is adorned with typical emblems, including rods entwined by serpents. An urn ornaments the tablet to Mrs. Barbara Meadows, 1805. Ambrose Boxwell, M.D., for many years surgeon of the County Wexford Infirmary, has a monument of grey and white marbles.

Charles Huson, Archdeacon of Ferns, 1777, whose remains are in the burial ground of the Church. A monument, erected by Robert Hughes, is in memory of Robert f oran, Lieutenant and Adjutant, who fell at Rangoon, at the storming of the Great Pagoda, 1852. The next two tablets are in memory of Henry Hatton, of Great Clonard, 1793, and Elizabeth Ogle, wife of Hon. George Ogle, 1807, the latter decorated by a relief representing a drooping female figure and urn. A quaint illuminated device bears the motto ; " His Calcabo Gentes." A monumental sarcophagus to McCarthy Colclough, Inspector of Constabulary, i860, completes the gallery. A beautiful portrait bust of Lady Emily Hughes, wife of Sir Frederick Hughes, is on the left of the chancel, at the back of which is a stained window to the memory of the late Rector, Richard Waddy Elgee, presented by his friends and parishioners. The chancel opening is crossed by three arches, which are supported by four massive pillars. The organ, a good one, by Telford and Telford, stands in a circular loft, which brings the choir into the centre of the Church.

CROMWELL'S FORT AND KENNY HALL. GREAT many curious notions take possession of the minds of generations of people during a period of 235 years. Some of those held concerning the place known as Cromwell's Fort are both curious and interesting. The fort which Cromwell occupied, during the negotiation with Governor Sinnott, is supposed to overlook the Bower, a wood from which there is an excellent view of Wexford. The precise position of the fort is in doubt, but at a rapid glance a stranger is led to fix it on the summit of a gorse covered mound, from which large pieces of rock protrude. It is at the edge of a high cliff. A second mound, some distance from this, is grassy, and forms part of a sheepwalk. This also is said to be the site. A more reasonable solution, perhaps, is that the works took in both, and that the original fort has been carried away in the quarrying operations of centuries. At present there remains a picturesque ridge of rock in the immediate vicinity. In past times a portion of it. still existing, was called Trespan Rock. It is split through in a vertical direction, and is now being quarried, though the tapping of iron bars and force of blasting powder may scar its sides for a long time yet without substantially affecting the mass. The rift is about 50 feet high, 15 feet broad, and 50 yards through, and must have been torn in some convulsion of nature. In the middle, a spring furnishes a drinking place for the cattle in the pasture. It is a tempting crevice for the localjtory- teller to squeeze Cromwell's army through. The Cromwell's Fort of the present day is a substantial mansion, four stories high, over the door of which is the date 1783, in large figures. It stands in a park of thirty-two acres, containing some splendid trees, and a garden of goodly size, in which there are conservatories several hundred feet in length. The present owner, up to 1882, was Mr. John Hawkes, a native of Moneens, Co. Cork. He inherited the fort and Coroock estates through his grandmother, and by Royal license has assumed the name of Hawkes-Cornock. Alderman John Sinnott's house, in South Main Street, was occupied as a residence and fort by Colonel David Sinnott, Military Governor of the town in 1649. It is still in a good state of preservation, its broad stairs and massive balusters showing no sign of age beyond a slight leaning towards one HOWARD ROWE, SPA WELL STEAM MILLS

It is now a drawing-room, and contains, among other paintings, one in oil, by Fortune, of Alderman John Sinnott in his robes of office as Mayor of Wexford, to which position he was twice elected, 1861 and 1881. Cromwell made this house his head quarters while he remained in Wexford. It was afterwards occupied by various persons until about 150 years ago, when it was purchased by Colonel Kenny, received the name of Kenny's Hall, and became his town house, New Fort, his country residence, being about seven miles distant. Alderman Sinnott entered into possession about' thirty-six years ago, and holds under a long lease. Six years ago, the late Mr. Richard Devereux purchased the head rent, and bequeathed it to the St. Vincent de Paul Society, of which Alderman Sinnott is President.

THE MOTHER OF THE POET MOORE, SIR ROBERT MACLURE, ANDOTHER DISTINGUISHED NATIVES OF WEXFORD. jlONESTTom Codd, of Corn Market." In 1836, when the poet Moore made a visit to Wexford, and was presented with an address by the Slaney Amateur Society, he thus referred to his grandfather :—" It is to me," said he in reply, " a source of much pleasure and gratification to find that so many of the good people of Wexford are present to witness the proud triumph of the grandson of honest Tom Codd, of Corn Market." The house in which Moore's mother was born is now, and has been for many years devoted to the dis- pensation of ardent spirits, under a publican's license. Its interior arrangements are quaint in all the degrees of quaintness. The1 rooms with corner fire-places, are used for storage of goods, and the narrow staircase leading to them is almost as difficult to climb as that of an ancient round tower. The shop was originally about ten feet long, ten feet wide, and eight feet nigh, and has in its ceiling two oak beams of considerable size. In its career as a tavern it has changed landlords very fre- quently. At one time under the title of " The Ark," it had been a favorite resort for nocturnal oyster eaters. Prices ranged at eightpence and tenpence per hundred. Wexford was not then so much devoted to temperance principles as it now is, and it was considered'no discredit to be a "sixteen tumbler man," and a member of the Cape Club.

Faetory~Dublin. 83 S. C. Hall and Alderman Greene, J.P., had a tablet placed over the door, which bears the following inscription :—" In this house was born, and lived to within a few weeks of the birth of her illustrious son, Anastasia Codd, the wife of John Moore, ;and mother of the poet, Thomas Moore, and to this house, on the 26th August, 1836, came the poet in the zenith of his imperishable fame, to render homage to the memory of the mother he venerated and loved. These are his words, ' One of the noblest-minded, as well as most warm-hearted of all God's creatures was born under that lowly roof.' Erected December 27, 1864, John Greene, J.P., Mayor of Wexford." Mr. Wheelock's house, next to White's Hotel, in North Main Street, was the birth-place, 1807, of the famous Arctic explorer, and discoverer of the North-West Passage, Sir Robert MacLure. Having spent three winters in the Arctic regions, on board the Investigator, he was about to arrange for a fourth, when he was relieved and brought home by Captain Kellett of the Resolute. As a reward for the discovery of the North-West Passage, he received the Commission of Post Captain, dated back to the time of the discovery, and was Knighted by Queen Victoria. His officers and crew received a reward oi £10,000. The house in which he was born was then the rectory, and his mother was the daughter of the Rector, Archdeacon Elgee. Lady Wilde, mother of Oscar Wilde, herself well known in literature as " Speranza," was also born in Wexford, and was a •member of the Elgee family. Francis Danby, A.R.A., painter •of the " Sunset at Sea, after a Storm," and other famous works, was born in the vicinity of Wexford, 1793. He was an exhibitor at the Royal Academy of England, from 1821 to 1830, and died in 1861. Many men distinguished in the military and civic annals, of the United States, were likewise natives of Wexford.

CHURCH OF THE ASSUMPTION. T would be difficult to find a more fitting- site for a church than this one occupies. Its grounds slope gently in J every direction. It is the terminus of a broad, new street, and the country lartdscape which it faces is very agreeable, including the well-built house and school of the Christian Brothers, the verdant hill of Cromwell's Fort, and between them undulating fields, in one of which stands an ancient windmill shorn of its sails. The church may be said to be twin-born with that of the Immaculate Conception, since their corner-stones were laid on the same day. The spires appear at a distance to be one the shadow of the other, square and massive at the basb e JAMES STAMP,

At the beginning of the present century, the ruins of a small church, dedicated to St. Bridget, stood on the spot now occupied by the gate of the Assumption Church. The sites of a large number of small churches, the ruins of some of them still standing, are visible from this gate. The corner of the yard on the left was (formerly used by the Society of Friends as a burial ground. About the great church door is an ingeniously arranged pavement of small, round stones. An inscription in white is firmly set in a groundwork of black to the memory of the Very Rev. Father James Roche, builder of the Twin Churches. At the north door is a second pavement of the same sort, bearing the date of celebration of the first Mass, 18th of April, 1858. The interior of the church is lofty and of fine capacity. Its roof is pointed, and the walls have mediaeval decorations, the heads of saints being set in medallions between the arches of the nave, the frames of the Station pictures corresponding in style. Two rows of solid and simple granite pillars separate the nave and aisles. A carved font of elaborate form, with self-acting cover, is enclosed by an iron rail on the right of the principal entrance. Half-way up the south aisle is a large figure of the Saviour, by Meyer, of Munich, presented by the Holy Family of Women of the Sacred Heart. The third window in the south aisJe is double, and represents St. Alphonsus Liguori and St. Ignatius Loyola, and was presented by Moses Uoyle, who died in 1878. The second window has St. John the Evangelist and St. Margaret, and was erected to the memory of John Lambert, by his widow. The Altar of the Virgin was the gift of Mr. Devereux, of George's Street. A handsome carved screen of Caen stone, with polished Irish marble columns, divides the Grand Altar from the Altars of St. Joseph and the Virgin. The Altar itself is a rich and elaborate specimen of work in Caen stone, and was presented by the Holy Family of Women. A high relief in the front of the Altar is a copy of Da Vinci's " Last Supper." Encaustic tiles, set in Portland stone, form the pavement of the chancel. The pulpit is of richly-carved stone with polished pillars of various colours. Two doors leading from the church to the left are provided with hinges and trimmings of polished brass. John Fanning presented the first window on the north aisle, in memory of his father and sister. It represents St. Nicholas of Tolentine and St. Margaret of Cortona. Robert Dempsey erected the second, in memory of his father and mother, and upon it are the figures of St. William and St. Margaret. The great window of the sanctuary is a representation of the Ascension, and is excellent in colour. In the gallery over the main entrance is an organ of P.HOWLIN, CABINETMAKER

CHURCH OF THE IMMACULATE CONCEPTION. j|T a first glance it would appear as though one description might serve this church and its counterpart, which is dedicated to the Assumption. . There are, however, differences in surrounding and appointment that are worthy of separate notice. The Church of the Immaculate Conception is well-favored inpoint of position, and is easy of access, its grounds opening upon three streets—Rowe, John, and High. The in- terior is fitted in a style at once substantial and elegant, each lower window being provided with stained glass, the clerestory openings alone being filled with clear panes. Entering at the south door the first window on the right has representations of St. Columbkille and St. Aidan, and was erected by Matilda Segrave in memory of her husband, O'Neal Segrave. On the brass tablet of the second window is an inscription perpetuating the memory of John H. Talbot, J.P., D.L., Co. Wexford. The window was erected by O'Neal and Matilda Segrave. Lady Power, Mrs. Scgrave, and J. H. Talbot presented the third window in memory of Sir Thomas Nicholas Redington. It depicts the figures of St. Thomas and St. N icholas. St. Laurence O'Toole and St. Margarita occupy the fourth window, which was the gift of John H. Talbot, and commemorates the names of Col. Brien O'Toole, C.B., Knight of the Tower and Sword of Portugal, Knight of St. Louis of , and other orders, and that of his nephew, Capt. Matthew O'Toole. At the back of the Virgin's and St. Joseph's altars are handsome coloured windows. Beneath the latter altar lies a statue representing the dead Christ. Instead of a division screen between the altars, traceries of Caen stone fill the arches, which are supported by light pillars of Irish marble. Encaustic tiles set in Portland stone, compose the floors. Figures of apostles and saints grouped about the crucifixion, form the subject of the great eastern window. Proceeding with an examination of the windows, that to the left of the southern entrance, picturing St. Anne and St. Catherine, was presented by O'Neal Segrave and his aunt, Katherine Kellett, in memory of Anne F. Segrave. On the immediate right of the main entrance is one dedicated by Margaret Connell to her husband's memory, with figures of St. Margaret and St. Francis Over the font the baptism of Christ is set in stained glass. SS. Richard, Matthew, Elizabeth, and Catherine are portrayed on the first northern window, which was raised to Richard Walsh, Mayor of T. H. RICHARDS,

Moses Doyle was the donor of the second window, Moses receiving the Laws in one light, and in the other the Smiting of the Rock in the Wilderness. The third window was given by Eleanor Scanlan to commemorate her husband and son. Four patron Saints illuminate the last northern window, being the gift of Anne Coghlan, Margaret McGill, and James Coghlan, in memory of Mary Cullen. Both side entrances to the Church are approached by massive granite steps. At the principal entrance, on John Street, white stones are set in an inscription to the effect that the building was erected by the very Rev. James Roche, P.P., Wexford, A.D. 1852. The door is deep, and though its heavy fluted casing is simple, it is of admirable construction. The spire has a clock, erected by Mr. William Timpson. All around the church and through the grounds are broad gravelled walks in perfect order. In the season of flowers, the beds are bright with colour. The wall on the east is a part of the old Town Wall, with which a small ivy covered tower, formerly used by archers, is con- temporary. ST. FRANCIS' CHAPEL. I HE Church of St. Francis, commonly known as the Friary Chapel, with its neat and ample grounds, is in School Street, on the way between the Churches of the Immaculate Conception and the Assumption. It is possessed of a fine and solid square tower, from whose height an extensive view may be obtained. A broad gravelled courtyard, with trees, extends along the front of the Friary buildings. On entering the Chapel door an impression of light and cheerfulness is the most striking characteristic. The windows are large, and of clear glass, and the sunlight streams in and displays to great advantage the clean and fresh coloured appointments. Dove- coloured panels set on cream-tinted ground, enriched with gilding and fretwork, ornament the ceiling, which is an unbroken arch over the nave. Solid round pilars support the roof and organ loft, which is circular in form, and contains an organ of good size and tone. In the right aisle, near the pulpit, is the monument erected by subscription of the people to the Rev. John Corrin, who was parish priest of Wexford forty-four years, and who died 1835. The monument is of Caen stone, the canopy richly carved with sacred emblems and figures. Under this lies a figure in like- ness of the Rev. Father, with hands folded as if in prayer. The countenance is massive, and marked with the kindliness which distinguished his character. At the feet is a dog. The three BOOTS! BOOTS!! BOOTS!!! 20 per Cent, saved by Buying them from

Beneath the one in the south aisle- are the relics of the martyred Saint Adiutor, enclosed in wax, clothed in glistening white, and partly covered with crimson velvet. In the hand is a branch of palm, and a gash in the forehead attests the manner of martyrdom. A phial, enclosing some of the Saint's blood is within the casket, which is protected by plate glass and a wire screen. This relic was presented to Dr. Devereux upon his departure from Rome. The grand altar, which, in the season, is decorated with natural flowers, is panelled with green and carved white marble in grapes, leaves, wheat, and the sacramental cup. On the altar of the Virgin, the name " Maria," in white, is delicately set on a creamy pink ground. Upon it is a crucifix in beaten silver, and over it a large oil painting of the Madonna. Tn the wall, at the right of the altars, is a monument in black marble to the Very Rev. John Sinnott, P.P., who for years filled the position of Professor and President of St. Peter's college, and was mainly instrumental in the improvements and building of that institution. A bust in relievo of Carrara marble, is a spirited likeness, and the tablet recording his death and virtues is also white. Near this is a monument to the memory of Bishop Caulfield, of Ferns, with crazier, mitre, and cross in white upon a black tablet. On the opposite side of the tower door, a tablet records the death of R. R. Patrick Lambert,. Bishop of Newfoundland, in 1816. It was erected by his sister, Margaret Rea. At the stations are well executed reliefs in stucco, framed in substantial gilt. At the back of the Friary the gardens are prettily laid out in shapely beds, and, in the season, tall white lilies of great size nod over the window sills. Beside the garden is the burial place of the Church. In a small enclosure near the gate, a large tablet records the names of the priests lying beneath, among them R. Rev. Dr. Henry Hughes, of Gibraltar, aged 72. Near by is a tomb of granite, belonging to Dr. Crean. A monument, erected by Philip Pierce in memory of his father, mother, brothers and sister, is a polished granite shaft, surmounted by an ornamented cross, the plot being surrounded by a cut stone enclosure. A monument commemorates James Hayes and his daughter, who, it is said, died of grief for the loss of her father.

THE CONVENT OF MERCY. JHE buildings generally known as the House of Mercy, are 1 immediately to the north of St. Peter's College, and command an equally fine view of the town and harbour. They include three houses, the Convent proper, the House of rmici mi (Late WALPOLB & CO.),

An Orphanage existed upon the same premises before the arrival of the Sisters of Mercy. Visitors are admitted by the third gate from town, to a passage which good- taste, and a sunny aspect, have converted into a tiny conservatory, full of bloom and sweetness, which looks into a garden on either side. From this the way leads through a hall, where hang specimens of the work done in the Convent, sewing, crochet, knitting, etc. The reception rooms are irre- proachable, and the floors and furniture reflect from their polished surfaces the broad and cheerful sunlight. In the room on the right, hangs the portrait of the late Mr. Richard Devereux, chief benefactor of the house. It was painted by Mr. Ambrose Fortune, a native of Wexford, now resident in London. Mr. Devereux built and endowed the House of Mercy for the training of servants in 1866, and in very many other ways displayed great generosity to this and kindred institutions. He died at the ripe age of 84. The present Reverend Mother has held her position for eighteen years, having been elected to. it immediately upon emerging from her novitiate. These facts, combined with many others which salute the visitor at every turn, speak forcibly of a gentle, firm and intelligent management, which have given a tone and spirit to the whole institution. The arches over the corridors, uniting the school and work-rooms, are illuminated with Scripture mottoes, and at the turn is a statue of St. Vincent de Paul, with his hand on a child's head. To the right is a laundry, which is amply supplied with all needful apparatus. The work is performed by young girls, some of whom have been reared from early childhood in the school, and others who have been taught household duties, in order to be received into service. All are required to have borne a stainless reputation, as the nature and design of the institution is not reformatory, but protective. The corridor further on passes the children's dining-hall, and, ascending a few steps, leads to a large schoolroom. Here in long rows, rosy faced girls of all sizes, from six to fifteen years of age, are taught and trained m sewing, knitting, and other useful branches. Good discipline reigns, and each little knitter has a work-bag demurely hung on the left arm. There is a somewhat startling transformation when the recess time arrives, and these quiet little damsels are to be seen scampering over the play-yard, their voices running through the whole gamut of sounds that a child's lungs are capable of, and which are a part of the physical education. In the schoolroom the same voices are trained to more conven- lROHMOHGERY ARD GEHERAL SEED WAREHOOSES 23 & 28 NORTH MAIN STREET, WEXPOI MATTHEW HAKPUE T) EGS to call the attention of his numerous Friends and X3 the Public to his Stock, which has been most care- fully selected from the Leading Afanufacturers, &c, in the Newest Designs and Patterns, and will be sold at the lowest possible prices.

Time is a matter strictly adhered to. Perhaps the pleasantest sights in the building are the nests of all the songsters. They are reached by ascending the stairs from the door of the schoolroom. The dormitories are long, broad and lofty, with windows on three sides. The air searches every inch of them, and makes their purity more pure. At the end of each are two chambers for the Sisters in charge- Across the yard, and with a flower-patch of its own, is the infirmary, a perfect one in its way, but happily not in great requisition. In the room at the left of the entrance is a pretty medicine case, with the simple medicines necessary for childhood's diseases, including several fine looking dolls. There is a large and airy sitting-room opposite for convalescents. Upstairs are little beds for invalids, and the breezes from the sea pass in and out of the open windows. Returning to the House of Mercy it is well to make the Chapel the finale of the description. Though small, its quiet and tasteful decorations give it a solemnity often unattained in larger edifices. The statues are good, and the altar and niches are abundantly supplied with fresh flowers.

St. Peter's College stands in a park, containing twenty statute acres, in that part of Wexford which is so appropriately named Summer Hill. It is approached from the main road by a broad avenue, bordered by frequent evidences of cultivated taste. A remarkable freedom from appearance of unnecessary restraint is strikingly manifested at the entrance, which has a handsome gate and inviting lodge. The drive to the front reveals many worthy specimens of the landscape gardener's art. My visit was in July, and the parterre were then bright with colour, and the foliage plants looked their best. Added to these attrac- tions within the grounds was the far greater one afforded by the incomparably charming view of the harbour and the points of land which are washed by its waterg. I was not at all surprised to learn from the Rev. Dr. Kavanagh, the excellent President of the College, that more than one bishop has been sufficiently appreciative of the loveliness of the prospect to wish to make the College his place of residence. The history of St. Peter's College, in its narration, will afford the reader an idea of the extent of its buildings. In- directly, the founder was the Rev. Peter Devereux, P.P., Kil- more. He had a farm in South Shilbeggan, Parish of Hook, for which there was a long lease. By the terms of his will, the amount realized by the sale of this, between .£800 and jfooo, was to be used for the education of students for the priesthood in foreign colleges, as there were not then Irish colleges in proportion to the requirements. Owing to the prevalence of Continental wars, delay occurred in carrying out the wishes of the testator. On the appointment, in 1805, of the Most Rev. Patrick Ryan, D.D., as Coadjutor , he saw at once the need of greater educational facilities. In 1811 he opened, in Michael Street, the first Catholic seminary in the diocese, and the Rev. Myles Murphy, afterwards Bishop of Ferns, became President, and was assisted by Mr. Joseph Clinch, a layman, who died in 1816. While the seminary was in active progress, the Penal Laws were somewhat relaxed, and Bishop Ryan decided to employ the bequest of the Rev. Peter Devereux as the nucleus of a fund for the erection of a college. A subscription list was opened, and the clergy and laity promptly and generously co-operated. Among the latter, the most prominent was John Hyacinthe Talbot, M.P. for New Ross,Ballytrent, Wexford. He introduced Pugin, the celebrated architect. In April, 1818, the foundation stone of St. Peter's College was laid by Bishop Ryan, and it was among the last of his important acts, for he died in the PETER'S WEXFO RD. FOUNDED A.D. 1818.

HPHE first and principal object of the College Superiors is to edacaM _1_ the Pupils solidly in the principles of the Catholic Religion, and to engage their hearts to the observance of its precepts. To encourage the acquisition of Religious Knowledge, special Scolkrships of consider' able value have been founded. The greatest attention is also paid to the Intellectual Training of the Students-—the Superiors being most solicitous to cultivate their mindi by a solid and extensive course of study, and thus fit them to become good and useful members of society, in whatever sphere of life they may be destined to move. The Course of Studies is adapted to the Intermediate Education Programme, and comprises the various branches of a first-class English, Mercantile, and Classical Education. Young men are also prepared for the Preliminary Examinations of the Royal College of Surgeons, the Apothecaries' Hall, the Pharmaceutical Society, Solicitors' Apprenticeships, the Banks and Civil Service Clerkships, and for Matriculation in the Royal University of Ireland. The application of the Pupils is encouraged by frequent competition. Eesides the usual Examinations at Christinas and Midsummer, Test Examinations in the various subjects are frequently held. The Students have the use ol a select and well-furnished Library, consisting of over 2,000 useful and interesting Books suited to their ags and studies. Good conduct, prompt obedience, and fair industry are expected from evveri y pupil, and a notable failure in any of these qualifications, after the ordinary means of correction have been tried, will be considered sum- cient cause to justify the Superiors in calling on the Parents to withdraw a boy. Before sending a Pupil to the College timeiy notice should be given to the President, and his permission obtained. The Candidate shouli bring a recommendation from the Clergyman of his Parish. And if he has been at any other College or Public School, he should be provide* with a certificate of good conduct. Young Boys who wish to avail themselves of the advantages of the Intermediate Examination Act ought to be present for the opening of the Classes at the beginning of the Academic Year, viz., September 1st. It is strongly recommended that Students be removed from Collegs only at Vacation times. If Parents wish to remove a Pupil during th« School period of the year, three months' notice should be given to tn« College Superior.

Further information may be obtained on application to THE PRESIDENT, Sr. PETER'S COLLEGE, WEXFORD- 99 following year. In September, 1819, the College was opened, "with the very Rev. Myles Murphy as President. It then con- sisted of the plain four storey building seen in the illustration on the extreme right, for the President and Professors, and class rooms and dormitories at the rere. In 1829, President Murphy was appointed Parish Priest of Tintern, and was succeeded by the Rev. John Sinnott, D.D. Between 1829 and 1832 the eastern wing was added to the College, and the square tower, which is used as a library. In 1838 the foundation stone was laid, ty the Most Rev. James Keating, D-D., of the handsome Church seen in the illustration. Dr. Keating was the successor of Bishop Ryan. The plans were given by Pugin. Mr. Talbot, M.P., strongly interested himself in collecting for the fund from which the cost of the building was taken. The church was consecrated in 1840, and has in its interior some examples of the ecclesiastical ornamenta- tion in which Pugin excelled. It is used for the clergy on retreat, for Church synods, and for public meetings of the clergy of the diocese. The Rev. Dr. Sinnott succeeded Dr. Murphy in the Presi- dency of the College. He died in 1850, and was succeeded by the Very Rev. Lawrence Kirwan. In September, 1858, the Very Rev. Patrick C. Sheridan, at present P.P. of Mannow, and Chancellor of the Diocese, was appointed President. lietween 1858 and 1861, extra school-rooms, a play hall, and dormitories, were added. In 1873 the Rev. Dr. Kavanagh was appointed President by the late Most Rev. Thomas Furlong, D.D., who resided in the College from 1858 until his death in 1875. In 1877-8, an extension was made to the southern wing, now used as an examination and exhibition hall, over which are rooms for senior students. An extension of the cloister was being made at the time of my visit in July, 1884. Fresh breezes from the sea sweep through all the dormitories and class-rooms, and a perfect system of drainage, with un- limited flushing power, forms part of the numerous advantages which the College possesses. An important brick-making industry, giving considerable employment, is being carried on in the College Park, the found in which is well adapted for the purpose.

Redemptorist Father, living in England, Rev. William Moran, now P.P. of Clongeen, Foulksmill, Mr. George Codd, deceased, Mr. Michael Hughes, deceased, James A. McGee, afterwards Lieut.-Col. of the 69th New York Regiment, and associate editor of McGee's Weekly (brother of D'Arcy McGee), and Mr. Ben. Hughes of the Independent, had a social meeting at Temperance Hall, Selskar. Mr. Ben. Hughes, about the same time, had been reading articles in the People's Journal, on the subject of Mechanics' Institutes, and having referred to them,, Mr. Johnson said it was a pity Wexford should be without one.. It was finally agreed that Mr. Ben. Hughes and Mr. Codd •should wait upon the Vice-Lieutenant of the County, Mr. Charles Arthur Walker, and on Sir Francis Le Hunte, R.N., for the purpose of taking their views as to the advisability of promoting •a fund. Interviews soon followed with the gentlemen named, both of whom expressed warm approval of the proposition.' Sir Francis Le Hunte had a good library and a choice collec- tion of corals. Being then on the point of leaving home, he had written a letter to the Clonmel Library offering to it the fcooks and coral collection. This letter he gave to Mr. Ben. Hughes, with the assurance that the gift would be made to the Wexford Mechanics'Institute, towards the cost of the erection •of which he subscribed ,£100. With a library of 1,000 volumes, a coral collection and £100, as a nucleus, the organizers felt justi- fied in making a house to house collection. The result of this was so encouraging that a site was secured in the Main Street, at the head of Anne Street, and a brick building, three stories in height, was erected at a cost of .£800. The opening ceremony was without formality or flourish, and occurred in 1858. At the death of Sir Francis Le Hunte, it was found that he had remembered the Mechanics' Institute to the extent of an extra ^600. Mr. Ben. Hughes continued his efforts on behalf of the Institute until he ultimately succeeded in securing for it quite a respectable library. It should be mentioned that the Vice- Lieutenant of the County, Mr. Walker, in the first instance, gave a liberal subscription. The late Mrs. S. C. Hall, who was one of the Fieldings of Bannow, presented over one hundred volumes, including all her own works. Mr. Francis Codd, Dublin, deceased, a Wexfordman, presented 300 volumes. Mr. William Boxvvell West, deceased, a native of Wexford, who was for many years United States Consul in Dublin, gave over 100 books, and several trifles for the Museum. Mr. West left Wex- ford in 1851, He had been a practising attorney there. At the time of the Railway Craze in 1845, he and an engineer named M'Call, promoted a scheme for a line from Wexford to Valencia. TO NEW YORK, PHILADELPHIA & BALTIMORE by IN MAN STEAMERS for £3.

The famine intervened and put an end to it. Mr. T. Lloyd, Thornville, gave 100 volumes to the library, and Dr. Thomas'J. Hutchinson, of Florence, late British Consul at Fernando Po, gave fort;' volumes for the library, and to the Museum a number of African curiosities, including the bamboo crown used at the coronation of the King of Bassapoo, at Fernando Po, in 1857, a royal drum taken from the bow of the canoe, in which King George of Gaboon used to pay state visits, a fetish idol from Iddah, on Niger, a one-stringed harp from the River Nazareth, spears, calabashes, &c. Among the single book presentations was one by Queen Victoria, with autograph. The reading-room of the Institute also serves the purposes of library, and Museum. It is lofty, well-lighted, and well venti- lated. In a glass-case are specimens of the paper currency of many countries, an extra share of space being given to that of the United States. The ex-Confederate States are also repre- sented. Not the least striking object in the room is a blue-faced Chimpanzee, in an attitude which pays the very highest tribute to the merit of the naturalist. A well-arranged mineral cabinet occupies a position between the two large windows which over- look the Main Street. Over the mantelpiece is a portrait in oil of the Institute's most liberal benefactor, Sir Francis Le Hunte, R.N. It was executed by Mr. Ambrose Fortune, a native of Wexford, and cost the members .£50. The next place of honor is given to a portrait in oil, by the same artist, of Mr. Hen. Hughes, who is styled " the Originator of the Institute." The cost of this was also borne by the members, and was a com- pliment most worthily bestowed. A billiard-room, committee-rooms and lavatory occupy, with the reading-room, the entire building. An excellent chance would be afforded for technical instruction in an Institute like this. The late Mr. Robert F. VVyke, during several years, taught drawing and French classes under its auspices. Now the educational influences depend entirely on the books, the Museum, the Dublin daily newspapers, the local newspapers, and the American and English magazines. Without any intention of showing a connection between the Mechanics' Institute and the Benefit Societies of Wexford, it may be no harm if some reader should find it appropriate to have,'reference made to them in the same chapter. The ten- dency to helpfulness which takes practical shape in the.formation of Benefit Societies is a peculiarity of social life m Wexford. Upwards of thirty of such societies exist at present. The mam objects are relief of the sick and burial of the dead. Members pay sixpence per week into a fund.

WEXFORD HARBOUR BOAT CLUB, WEXFORD REGATTAS, AND ATHLETIC SPORTS. JfcgSga|N the 14th of May, 1873, the Wexford Harbour Boat IL*#JI Club was established at a meeting held in White's 8^1 Hotel. Among those present were : Mr. Charles H. Peacocke, Mr. Ml. Devlin, Mr. James P. Devereux, and Mr. Lawrence Devereux. Mr. Peacocke presided, and Mr. Devlin acted as secretary and treasurer. It was arranged that the entrance fee should be one guinea, and that the annual subscrip- tion should be one guinea. After a couple of years the entrance fee was abolished. It was revived again in 1884, and fixed at half the original amount. A boat-house was built at Ferrybank, across the Slaney from Wexford. The cost was £80. At the end of 1874 the house was blown away in a gale, and with it all the boats, with the exception of three or four, valued at £20 or £30. Early in 1875 a general meeting of the members was held. The Club was in debt £70, and matters looked the reverse of promising. Mr. M. A. Ennis was appointed Captain and Honorary Secretary, positions which he still holds. There was an executive committee also appointed, and an effort was promptly made to repair the losses of previous years, and^get out of debt. A piece of land was secured from the Dublin, Wicklow and Wexford Railway Co., beside the bridge which crosses the Slaney, and a house, slip, and embankment were built, and the grounds enclosed with an ornamental railing. New boats were purchased, and, in fact, nothing was leftundone to put the club in a position second to none in Ireland. Since 1875 there lias been an expenditure, with this view, of upwards of i, 1,000, ana the debt has been wiped out. The club-house is very agreeably situated, and has, since 1883, added to its undoubted attractions that of a tennis court, 150 feet long, and 50 feet broad, the land for which was also obtained from the Railway Company. Ine first tennis tournament was held in 1884. Family Grocer, TEA, WINE AND SPIRIT MERCHANT, UPPER JOHN STREET, | LOWER JOHN STREET, WEXFORD.

Thomas Pococke, of Putney, was employed ; and again, in 1S79, Robert Patrick, of Newcastle-on-Tyne. Since then the Captain, Mr. M. A. Ennis, has saved the cost of a professional trainer, by doing the work himself ; indeed, it is only fair to say that no trouble has been spared by Mr. Ennis in order to keep the club in as high a state of perfection as possible. The record which it has secured is exceedingly satisfactory. The first race for out-rigged fours at the Wexford Harbour Regatta in 1873 was won easily by Wex- ford against the Slaney Rowing Club of Enniscorthy. The Wexford crew was composed as follows :—1. G. M. Carroll. 2. N. Caulfield. 3. G. M. Power. 4. M. A. Ennis. (stroke). . John Perceval (cox.) At the Wexford Regatta, in 1879, the race for senior fours was won by the club. The sculler's cup at the Kingstown Regatta in the same year, was won by M. A. Ennis. The club won the cup for out-rigged fours at Carlow in 1880. At the Slaney Regatta in 1880, the club won prizes for senior and junior fours. The sculler's cup—champion- ship of the Slaney—was won, in 1881, by M. A. Ennis. The club won the Eblana cup—Irish championship—at the Metro- politan Regatta in 1882. G. R. Greig won the sculler's cup at Kingstown in 1883. Mr. William Coghlan, J.P., during his twenty-six years of service as collector of the port, took a leading part in getting up aquatic sports. He started the annual regatta in 1838, and endeavoured to wind up his career in 1883, but the Rosslare folk induced him to help their annual regatta, which was begun in 1883. Mr. Coghlan has determined to leave to younger men the duty of managing future regattas at Wexford. Successful athletic sports were held at Wexford in September, 1884, and were participated in by the Wexford Bicycle Club, which Mr. William Timpson has done so much to keep in a respectable state of efficiency.

AGENT FOR PULLAR'S DYE WORKS, PERTH. 109 road, in spite of the fell apprehensions as to the consequences attending such acts. The story runs, that the workmen who built the road having made up their minds to christen the mound, and not being able to agree upon a name, decided to leave it to the first comer. This was a girl, who replied to their enquiries with a laugh, and the jocular cognomen has remained to the present day, notwithstanding the fact that many of the country folk consider the task of passing that way at night anything but a joke. The old castle gate, or the one nearest Wexford, was formerly a very picturesque structure with two castellated lodges, and an amount of well trained and trimmed ivy, unequalled in the whole- county. One of these lodges has been re-modelled in a different style, and the ivy has been removed from lodges and walls. From every point of view Johnstown Castle is a beautiful piece of architecture. Its position is on comparatively low ground, and the style light, as becomes a building which is well sheltered. The porch is exceedingly fine, with gothic arches, and groined roof, and above it is a graceful tower. A drive around the northern end leads to the border of the lake, from which, with the water as a foreground, the best view of the Castle may be obtained. Between it and the shore is a land- scape garden. Johnstown Castle is in part a restoration, though the ancient portion is so enriched with additions and modifications as to be unrecognisable. It was built by the Esmondes, who came to. Ireland in the latter half of the tenth century. For several hundreds of years it was the stronghold of a warlike race. On the occasion of Cromwell's visit to Wexford, the Castle was dis- mantled and left in a ruined state. In the year 1683 the property was purchased by John Grogan, of Yorkshire, from the Cromwellian soldier whose portion it had become. In 1783, while it was the seat of Cornelius Grogan, a grand military review was held on the estate, which included corps from all parts of the Counties of Wexford, Waterford, and Kilkenny. Extensive improvements were begun by the late Mr. Grogan- Morgan, whose pleasure it was to continue indefinitely beautify- ing what by nature was already charming. These improve- ments were continued on a large scale by his widow, afterwards the wife of Sir Thomas Esmonde. On the side of the lake opposite to the Castle 1? a rumed tower, well covered with ivy. The avenue proceeds through grounds which formerly contained a great number of fine forest trees, but are now thinly adorned with young growth, to the garden, a well terraced and favourably situated plot, with green-houses, graperies, and wall fruit in variety.

The back entrance is in the vicinity of Piercestown Chapel. The deer park contains 222 acres, and is well stocked. The estate is 936 acres. A small river flows through both.

FERRY CARRIG. j|NE of the most agreeable walks from Wexford is that which leads to the famous Ferry Carrig. Passing through West-gate,'and along the Spa Well Road,many handsome suburban residences are seen, at both sides of the way. The Gaol and Union Workhouse share attention, particularly the Workhouse, which is a grey stone building, of many gables, standing upon a well-cultivated and judiciously planted farm of ten acres. Just at the opening, where the Workhouse impresses itself, the road descends and crosses a little stream, which, under ancient charters, marked the northern boundary of the munici- pality. At a further stage of the journey, the Slaney comes into view. Alma, the residence of Mr. Edward Fitzgerald Ryan, agreeably interrupts the journey. P'rom here the road runs out of sight of the river, the next glimpse of which is obtained from the top of the last hill. From this point of observation, Ferry Carrig is presented like a delicate and well composed painting. On the left bank of the river is the ruin of a square tower, mounted on a high rock, and surrounded by huge splinters of rock, frowning at the trim Crimean monument on the opposite side. The latter is built in the style of the Irish Round Towers, and its height is augmented through being erected upon a hill, •whose steep sides are thickly planted. Upon a portion of this hill, the original fortress of Fitzstephen once stood. The square tower on the rock, also of Anglo-Norman origin, has often been confounded with the pile of masonry in which the adventurer successfully resisted the assaults of the Wexfordians. A white bridge across the river, between the towers, leads the eye from one to the other. Beneath the base of the square tower a solidly constructed wall carries a winding road, which is soon lost in trees, on the way to Artramont and Edenvale. Beneath the wall, two or more fishing cots are usually moored. Beyond the bridge and towers, plumy masses of foliage line the hills on either side of the river, while the fardistance is of golden fields, meeting the sky with the faintest perceptible line. It may be compared to a scene in the opera, and, contemplated from the distance of the hill, one almost expects a well dressed crowd of villagers to start out of the foreground, with an opening WALSH & SON, AUCTIONEERS AND VALUATORS, OFFICES, CRESCENT QUAY,

The rippling shadow of the tower on the river ; the boat sidling along with rounded sail; the donkey-cart creeping over the white road ; all are adjuncts which delight the soul of the scenic artist. Looking up the river from the bridge, on the right bank, the trees are seen which surround the charming residence of the Hon. Mrs. Deane-Morgan, Ardkandrisk. On the left bank, the farm of Mr. Samuel Godkin, crowned by a comfortable dwelling, slopes gently to the water side. Ferry Carrig is about two and a-half English miles from Wexford.

EDENVALE. DRIVE from Wexford to Edenvale should include Ferry Carrig, Kyle, and . The road beyond " the ferry" passes Saunderscourt, Mrs. Elizabeth Richard's pretty cottage, Arran, and Artrarnont, the residence of Mr. George LeHunte, J.P. Artramont is an old-fashioned solid house, with concealed roof. Its site is among the finest in the county, commanding a splendid view of the Slaney, and the surrounding country. Its grounds are ample and well kept, and the demesne has a large number of ornamental and useful trees. The road fronting it is bordered by the extending branches of forest trees, and is charmingly diversified by gentle hills. At the foot of the last of these, to the left of the village of Castlebridge, which is three miles, English, from Wexford, the entrance to Edenvale is reached. An iron gate bars the way, but entrance is freely given. In bestowing a name, it is a dangerous compliment to either a child or a locality to pitch upon one denoting extreme loveli- ness. It too frequently occurs that the child never attains the ideal indicated, or that the locality totally belies the suggestion implied. Edenvale is a shining exception among such cases. Our original parents must indeed have been fastidious could they have found fault in a place like this. From the gate, along the Sow, which winds its way towards the sea, the serene beauty of fern-covered and well wooded hillside increases. The valley widens into a broad lawn, carpetted with green. A tiny foot bridge, exquisitely dressed in ivy, crosses the stream—whose name certainly is not romantic—and from this an avenue winds to a comfortable vine-covered farmhouse, which overlooks the vale of three acres. This house has been occupied by the Smithsons for upwards of one hundred years, and is at present H GOLD MEDALS AWARDED DUBLIN & CORK EXHIBITIONS. FOR MOWERS & REAPERS.

The hill on the right bank of the stream rises to a height of 220 feet, and is tastefully planted with trees and shrubs. Trees of gigantic size, full foliaged, and beautiful, meet the eye on every side ; but the crowning glory of the scene is the chief cascade, some thirty feet high. It is at the further end of the vale, and is so bowered in trees that the white sheet of water seems to leap out of a wall of living green. It pours down from rock to rock : high rocks frame in the picture to the right, while to the left a path leads up to other cascades, and to pools teem- ing with trout. Edenvale is an ideal pic-nic ground, open to all, but its stream may not be fished without leave from the landlord, who is likewise master of Artramont.

THE MILL ROAD IRONWORKS. |N a county in which, proportionately to extent and population, there are so few manufactures, an excess of interest is acquired by an industry like that of Messrs. Philip Pierce & Co. The existence of the Mill Road Iron Works, Wexford, has been known for many years all over Ireland, but its merits were not fully understood until critical judgment at -he Dublin and Cork Exhibitions united in the opinion that they should receive the recognition attaching to the award of gold medals. At the Cork Exhibition of 1883 my first acquaintance was made with the agricultural machinery manufactured by Messrs. Philip Pierce & Co. I was very favourably impressed by the lightness, style, and finish displayed, but I did not associate with these evidences of skill, taste, and discernment, a factory- covering acres of ground, machine-shops containing the newest inventions, and 130 hands at work. On the occasion of my first visit to Wexford, at the end of June, 1884, I was afforded an opportunity of seeing the works, in company with Mr. Philip Pierce, upon whom, with his brother Martin, devolves the active management. And now, for the sake of the reader, I had better mention that the leading manu- factures of Messrs. Philip Pierce & Co., are mowers and reapers, horse power and steam power threshing machines, churning machines, horse rakes, and turnip and mangold seed sowers. As the principal parts of such machinery take shape primarily atthe foundry, I began to make notes there. The buildings which enclose it are 56 by 100 feet. They are constructed of stone, and n6 have brick facings. Three years ago these buildings were made two-thirds larger than they originally were. The most improved moulding machinery, fitted for steam power, is used, and there are two blast furnaces of very considerable capacity. Next in order to the foundry is the fettling shed. Here the castings are taken in the rough, and placed, for the purpose of cleaning, in a revolving cylinder, after which they are trimmed by emery wheels driven by steam. From the fettling shed the castings are removed to a large store, capable of holding 150 tons. Each kind is carefully placed by itself, so that at a glance it may be seen where renewal of stock is most needed. An idea of the number of castings required for the successful operation of such a factory as that 01 Messrs. Philip Pierce & Co., may be formed when I mention that in this store there were from 600 to 700 varieties. Following in the regular order of progress toward the comple- tion of the perfect machine, an uncovered space of several hundred feet had to be passed between the castings store ana the fitting shop. This was nearly all occupied with piles of the larger castings, including, thousands of mowing machine wheels. , The turnery is the most interesting part of the worre. Here are the contrivances of mechanical ingenuity which snap the products of the foundry to the exact sizes required to accurate machine building. It is about 150 feet in lengt , and has nine sliding lathes, six vertical and hotizonta drilling machines, slotting and recessing machines, and Pu"c " ing and shearing machines. Over 200 pulleys were in motio , and certainly not less than 2,000 feet of belting. It took only casual glance to understand that no expense had been SP* in the equipment, and I was not at all unprepared to he from Mr. Pierce that many valuable improvements in machinery had been made by himself. rts In the erecting shop, which is 80 by 120 feet, the various pan of the machines are put together. In this department the ru are displayed, which apply to all the workmen. They simple and reasonable, yet full of the force which suggests ° and good government. The hours of labour are from six to -j cW from Monday to Friday, and on Saturday from six o Z Zw threeh . A tramway runs frof m thhe erectini g shoh p to the nnwc ^ store, which is 60 by 120 feet, and is large enough to eas"?. ^ maC from 500 to 600 mowing machines, and 200 threshing ? ;si,° In this house there was ample evidence of good taste m ' and of durability in construction of the various machines. ^ to the machine store is the iron store, a building 80 by 4 ^. In this was arranged, with the precision noticeable in "7 other department, the immense stock of bar, scrap, and pig, necessary for the supply of such extensive operations. The grounds belonging to the Mill Road Iron Works consist of 4}4 acres, and these are largely covered by buildings. One of the open spaces seen from a distance, is so occupied by horse- rakes as to suggest a regiment of soldiers with fixed bayonets. Not the least important of the divisions of the concerns, which are so admirably calculated, is the part store. This is 80 by 25 feet, and has sections of bins running from floor to ceiling, in which are kept the wearing parts of machines. During the last six years the development of this industry as a whole neces- sitated an outlay of between ,£4,000 and ,£5,000 on new buildings, among which are handsome offices. There are no special centres for the distribution of the agricul- tural machinery manufactured by Messrs. Philip Pierce & Co. It is shipped to agents and merchants in every town in Ireland, and latterly has found its way to England and Wales. The Mill Road Iron Works are favourably situated within the borough boundary, have the advantage of a most perfect drainage system, •and are at a distance of one-sixth of a mile from the Quay. The history of the industry which has grown to such propor- tions is exceedingly interesting, showing as it does what may be done in Ireland when merit is solely relied upon for success. James Pierce, father of the brothers Philip and Martin, who are the active managers of the Mill Road Iron Works, was a native of Kilmore, in the Barony of Bargy. Nearly fifty years ago he removed to Wexford, where his mechanical ingenuity soon attracted public attention. Among his first undertakings of note was the erection of a large conservatory for Sir James Power, Bart. He worked from the plans of Turner, a cele- brated Irish engineer, and executed the contract so skilfully and carefully that many orders for similar constructions followed. In the number of his patrons were included Capt. P. M. Harvey, Lonsdale, and P. Breen, Esq., Castlebridge. In the meantime, Mr. Pierce had given attention to hand-threshing machines, and had turned out a considerable number, when one day, as he walked along the Quay of \Y exiord, he saw an English horse-threshing machine that had just been discharged from a vessel. Its presence suggested the need of a machine of a similar nature, better adapted to Irish farming. He set about the construction of one, and it is worthy of remark that the improvements he invented were afterwards appro- priated by the English firm whose machine he had met upon the Quay. It was about the year 1846 when he began the manufacture of horse-threshing machines, and they became so popular that nS he was obliged to take premises in Allen Street. Increased demand soon compelled him to seek larger premises, and he moved to the Folly Mills, attached to which there was a malt- house. In the latter he set up a forge and fitting shop, and we former he used for storage purposes. In these premises, then considered very extensive for Wexford, he bent his best energies to the improvement and development of the ideas of his youtn and manhood. Sticking to the threshing machines, he enectea improvement upon improvement until his name became wei known throughout the Counties of Carlow, Tipperary, and i-im- Branching out from this style of work in 1856, he entered into a contract for the erection of the magnificent bridge, of wood anu iron, now spanning the mouth of the Slancy, and connecting iu eastern and western portions of the county. The bridge is more than a quarter of a mile in length, and is remarkable for «""" and scientific construction. It is the principal promenade onm people of Wexford, who were quick to take advantage ot the mv.g orating breezes which are wafted to it, either from the narDoui, one side, or from the wooded slopes of Saunderscourt, a' other. The engine by which the foundation piles were a^n ^ was designed and made on the premises. Mr. Fierce a Mr. Philip Pierce commenced in 1866 to be associated with his father in the management of the concerns which uitim* ; spread beyond the limits of the Folly Mill and Malt-house, became the Mill Road Iron Works of the presenpre t aaj. ^ inherited his father's inventive genius, and devotedted _ s portion of his time to the study of general agricultural rnacn < making a speciality of mowing machines. After repeated CXP ments, always hampered by the difficulties which beset "^.^ of invention where other minds are not working in < • t groove, he at last secured a distinctive place among tncj ^ manufacturers, and succeeded in gaining the respec and opponents in other countries, as well as the contiaei support of the Irish farmers. The gold medal for general ^ lence in agricultural machinery was awarded to ^ssrs- 5t Pierce & Co., at the Dublin Exhibition of 1882. Three' ^ prize medals—the maximum number—were awarded ai ,eat Exhibition of 1883, and honorable mention has been the various Agricultural Shows in Ireland. ir9 WEXFORD BOROUGH.

THE WEXFORD INDEPENDENT commands the most natural!/ favoured and prosperous County in Ireland, and circulates, largely in the Towns of Wexford, New Ross, Ferns, Ennis- corthy, Gorey, and Taghmon ; and in the Counties of Carlow, Kildare, Kilkenny, Waterford, and Wicklow. It is Liberal in politics, and a warm advocate of the Social, Literary, Agri- cultural, and Commercial advancement of Ireland. It has been the decided and uncompromising foe to all sectarian and religious rancour, and the strenuous advocate for the extinction of the jarring elements of party. Amongst the One Hundred and Eight Stamped Newspapers published in the Provinces, previous to the year 1871 the WEXFORD INDEPENDENT stood at the head of Ninety-seven of that number, there being only Eleven papers in the four provinces above it in circulation, thus rendering it one of the best advertising sheets in the kingdom. The Nobility and Gentry, the Agricultural and Commercial Classes of the several Counties through which A circulates, bestow upon THE WEXFOKD INDEPENDENT a large measure of patronage. As a well-established Family N«ws' paper, and for the fullness and accuracy of its reports of all local occurrences, it enjoys a high reputation. 133 Hiiggard, Martin, sol, Slaney st.

The Postal authorities have divided the County Wexford into six parts, each having its own distributing centre. Divisions are made with a view to convenience, no account being taken of the nearness of villages in one division to the head- quarters of another. For example, Castlebridge, which is about three miles, English, from the Borough of Wexford, is placed in the Gorey division, although Gorey is a great many miles further away. The explanation is simple and reasonable. The mail- car from Gorey passes through Castlebridge. Wexford, New Koss, Enniscorthy, Gorey and Ferns are head Post Offices, and Waterford is head to a few villages in the south-west. The address on a letter should include the head Post Office, as, for instance, Broadway, Wexford; Palace,New Ross; Bree, Erniis- corthy; Screen, Gorey ; Ballycarney, Ferns; &c.

BALLYCOGLEY. N one of the best spots of the fertile Barony of Forth, six and a-half miles south of Wexford, on the road to Kilmore, is the village ofBallycogley. Itshouses, thatched and slated, are comfortable; many of them pretty. The situation is rather ?'g"> and the place is consequently wholesome. The surround- ing lands are good for pasture and tillage, the surface being ge. yundulating. Ba'lycogley's most conspicuousand interesting t hCtuS tlle ru'ned church of Mayglass, whose date is supposed to be the end of the 13th century. Of the remains, a handsomely- sculptured doorway and eastern window are most noteworthy, originally the chancel was divided from the nave by a broad oaxon arch, which fell about J833. The elevation on which the jjun stands, is an old Danish mound or rath, and is extensively sea as a burial place. In it lie the remains of Beauchamp agenal Harvey, put to death in 1798, for high treason. At a WJIT* about half a mile is Ballycogley Castle, built by the vaadings, and now the property of Mr. N. J. Barrington. tinn^^J16 handsome residences in the vicinity may be men- SilwT rhornviHe, belonging to Mr. Henry H. Meadows, J.P. ; 'I P P"ng»Captain E.

BRIDGETOWN. Population about loo—Trout Fishing. JRIDGETOWN is in the Barony of Bargy, nine miles, En- glish, from Wexford. The lands surrounding it are good for pasture and tillage, and are watered by a small stream called by the same name. Good shelter is afforded, and the houses of the village are in fair repair, most of them being slated. A fowl market is held once a week, on Monday, and a fair once a month. In the neighbourhood formerly stood three castles ; Bridgetown Castle, built by the Keatings ; Baldwinstown, by a member of the Montmorency family; and Mulrankin, built by Sir William Le Brune, who came to Ireland with Harvey de Montmorency, and originated the Brown family. The ruins of Baldwinstown Castle are in possession of Mr. Wm. Stafford, and those of Mulrankin are on the farm of Mr. Walter Lambert. 1 CATHOLIC CHURCH. CIVIL BILL OFFICER. Rev. Father Gorman, P.P.

BROADWAY. JN the southern part of the Barony of Forth is the lake formerly called Lough-Togher, now better known as Lady's Island Lake, from its holy island, which was once a famous place for penance. The lake is about two miles in length, and one in breadth, the village of Broadway being on a hill at the northern end, eleven miles from Wexford. Carne and Tacumshane are in the immediate vicinity. The principal landowners are Lord Keane, James Howlin, Matilda Segrave, and Richard Nunn. The nearest railway station, on Ballygeary line, is 2J miles. A fowl market is held on Mondays and Saturdays, and fairs three times a year. The land in the vicinity is good for pasture and tillage. The smaller houses in the village, both thatched and slated, are in good repair. Handsome residences are owned in the neighbourhood by Dr. Whittaker, Broadway Cottage; Mrs. Codd, Ballytory Castle; Mrs. Segrave, Ballytrent; Mr. James Howlin, Ballycronigan. The vicinity is rich in ruins ; Lady's Island Castle, near the village, the Castle of Rathshillan, about a mile distant; Ballytory Castle, originally built by the Frenches, half-a-mile distant ; Lady's Island Church, Church of St. Margaret, and Church of otonyford.

CHURCHTOWN. j|HE village of Churchtown has, in its normal condition,, about sixty residents, a number which is considerably augmented in the summer. It is situated on the sea coast, 13 miles south of Wexford, and is yearly growing in favour as a bathing resort. It is convenient of access to Wexford, as a car runs thrice a week to Ballygeary Railway Station, a distance of 5 miles. The surrounding land is good for pasture and tillage. Lady's Island Lake and village are a little more than a mile distant. A fowl market is held on Mondays at Lady's Island, and fairs twice a year. Lord Keane, , Mr. R. Nunn, St. Margaret's, and Messrs. Howlin and Denny, Carna House, are the owners of the handsomest private residences in the neighbourhood. For ruins, there are Clough East Castle, in a state of repair, and the ancient Church of St. Vogh, a building with massive walls and small windows. A moat surrounds the burial place of the Church, which is of considerable size, and in which are buried the remains of shipwrecked persons driven ashore at this point.

DUNCORMICK. Population about 350—Trout Fishing. flHE Village of Duncormick lies to the south-west of Wexford 9 j£ miles, Irish, and is 4 miles from Kilmore Quay. A river passes through, which is good for trout fishing, and being tidal for a mile to the sea, is navigable for , and other boats, of light burden. The houses are, for the most part, slated, and of comfortable appearance. A fowl market is held weekly, on Mondays, but there are no fairs. The lands of the district are better for tillage than pasture. Dun- cormick Castle, whose site was on a hill, near the village, was standing in the earlier half of the century. Various accounts •exist as to its destruction. One authority has it that having been undermined by treasure hunters it fell, without premoni- tion, into a heap of ruins. A resident who remembers it well, and who was on its high tower the day before its destruction, testifies that it was split by a stroke of lightning. The land on which it stood is the property of Mr. Frank Boxwell, Kirlogue, Wexford.

KILMORE. | HAT part of Kilmore which stretches to within a distance of seven and a-half miles, Irish, from Wexford, the natives distinguish by the addition of the word upper. It is known to the postal authorities simply as Kilmore. Bum- mer visitors to Kilmore Quay, two miles and a-half, Irish, distant, find good accommodation in the trim white cottages of the upper village. A Catholic Church, with dome-shaped tower, for many years was the place of worship for the residents of the district, down to the coast. Now Kilmore Quay has a Catholic Church of its own, a handsome structure, with a presbytery in which the curate resides. The Parish Priest continues to live in u uPPer village. Potatoes and barley are the chief crops of "ie vicinity.

KILMORE QUAY AND THE SALTEES. IT is a little more than ten Irish miles from Kilmore Quay to Wexford. The Quay, as it is proudly referred to oy if—i the residents, is favourably situated as a summer reso , and have much to interest the tourist, and amuse the ann visitor. There is a hotel, and many well-built and comfortam. furnished lodges, but there is room for increased accommoa stv e tion. A large family hotel, kept in the best . ! ' -hl judiciously advertised, would pay as a speculation in we » hands. I am not to be understood as intimating that tne i at present in existence is not a good one. I was J^ere 1 •!' 1884,-and it was then filled beyond its capacity, lo me a fc east is Ballyteige Bay, with miles of sand banks, all 01 are occupied by rabbits. The Castle of Ballyteige, erecteu^ , ana Sir "Waller Whitty, commands a view of the bay, • a good State of preservation. Under its protecting wms g to J modern dwelling, occupied by Mr. Thomas want. S rbour Castle is passed on the way to Duncormick. Kilmore n Q{ is not all that it could be made by a liberal expenditure money, but its pier is of great service to the fishermen. ISI

One of the sights of Kilmore is St. Patrick's Bridge, a cause- way of large stones, fully thirty feet in width, and extending about a mile from the shore. It is remarkable for symmetrical form, being evenly rounded from the centre to the sides. As a walk it is difficult, but those who persevere in the effort to use it for this purpose, cannot fail to admire both the bridge itself and the ingenius naming of it. It evidently has a strong founda- tion, for it is said that no stones are washed from it. A large rock near the shore, and within a few rods of the bridge, bears an imprint resembling a hand, and it has long been a popular notion that St. Patrick rested his hand upon it on the way to the Saltees, and left the mark as a sign of his presence for future generations. The Saltee Islands are the great attraction of Kilmore ; in clear weather they are a standing temptation to adventurous pic-nic parties, and places from which there is no escape in bad weather. Great Saltee is four Irish miles from Forlorn Point, which is about a quarter of a mile from [Kilmore Quay. The Hon. Mrs. Deane-Morgan and Lord Granard are joint owners of it and of Little Saltee. The tenants of Great Saltee are Patrick and John Parle, representatives of a family that has been in occupation for over eighty years, having succeeded the Furlongs about the year 1800. According to tradition, the originator of the Parle family was one of three brothers who were wrecked at Carnsore Point. Having had a leg broken, he was left behind, and his two brothers returned home to France. Permanent settlement in the barony of Bargy was induced by the fair native who nursed him through his illness. Great Saltee has about 130 acres, of which 45 is fit for tillage, and produces barley, wheat, oats, beans, mangel-wurzel, potatoes, turnips and cabbage. There is a rabbit warren of between 50 and 60 acres, and about 30 acres of barren rock. Crops grow well in fine seasons, but in stormy weather, in consequence of having no beach at the back, the water strikes the cliffs and goes over upon the crops. In this way as much as seven acres of them have been often completely destroyed. The Parle home- stead is a comfortable slated house, and occupies a well sheltered spot on the north-west side. Here the father of the present tenants lived until he was eighty-seven years of age, and left a widow a few years his junior, who survived him two years. The great sorrow of their lives had been occasioned by the death of their second youngest son, Stephen, who when a boy of thirteen, fell over a cliff called the Celbooly, the highest point of which >s 130 feet. In winter the winds affect the island to such an extent that ornmunication with the main land is sometimes cut off forthree iS2 weeks at a time. Frequent wrecks occur in the vicinity, but owing to the strength of the tide, wreckage is seldom thrown upon it. The landing place is between rocks on the north-side, and even in good weather it requires an experienced hand at the helm to shoot it in safety. In severe weather this feat is impos- sible. Pic-nic parties and curiosity hunters have frequently been compelled to remain over night, and in a few instances for several days, owing to a sudden change to foul weather. Homely fare and plenty of clean straw in the barn have been hospitably dispensed in such instances. Great Saltee abounds in interesting places. It was a refuge for Beauchamp Bagenal Harvey and John Colclough, leaders in the Rebellion of 1798. They were arrested there by the officers of a Revenue cutter, carried to Wexford and put to death the day after arrival. Colclough's Cave, to the north-west, for years afterwards, was shown by local guides to sympathetic strangers, but the site of it now only remains, the cave itself having long since yielded to the assaults of the ocean. The greatest existing cave is the otter, to the southward. It is dry and has to be entered on all-fours. Lady "Walkers cave was at the eastern end, and it, too, has been completely carried away by the sea. Some stones of the floor, of that pinkish tint so common in Bargy and Forth, give ground for the suggestion that the blood of Lady Walker has permanently dyed them. Cat Cliff, to the west, is about 200 feet high. Makestone Cliff, to the south, is about 100 feet high, and the lesser cliffs are Tommens, Boar's Back, Wherryman, Happy, Ardheen, The Frenchman, Bird Rock, Raven, Celbooly, Stafford, Hell, Dollow, Red, and Labor-in-vain. Bird Rock received its name through the fact that it is a favourite place for wild fowl. A piece of level land, well sheltered, is called The Ring, and at the east side there is a strip known as The Abbey, although there are no foundations visible. Little Saltee contains about 100 acres, and is held from year to year by Francis Parle, of Clingarry. St. Patrick's Bridge, as seen at low water, leads towards this island, which is used for tillage, and as a rabbit warren. Having no cliffs, and, conse- quently, being more exposed to the weather, crops often suffer very much. There is a farmhouse on it, but it has not proved sufficiently attractive to induce Mr. Parle to make a home on the island. CATHOLIC CHURCH. PROTESTANTCHURCH(I.C) Rev. Nicholas Keating, C.C.

KYLE. Scattered population— Trout fishing. BO more delightful drive is found in the vicinity of Wexford than that which connects it with Kyle. It is about nve miles, English, by way of Ferry Carrig. Kyle is a rural Postal station, in which are a few houses on the road-side, ana a pretty Protestant Church and Protestant School. Numerous plantations, surrounded by excellent lands, give picturesque effect to many private residences in the district. A"10"! f number are Tykillen House, Bromley, Lonsdale and Mourn Anna. Crossabeg is less than a mile from Kyle, on the way Edenvale and Castlebridge. It is more of a village than Kyle, but is known to the Postal authorities by the latter name. Letters to its residents should be addressed Crossabeg, Kyle, Wexford. Crossabeg contains the Catholic Church, and is the place of residence of the Parish Priest. A trout stream., which sometimes affords good sport, runs at the foot of the hill, upon the side of which Crossabeg comfortably nestles. •CATHOLIC CHURCH. Flood, E. S., J.P., Ballinaslaney Rev. Thos.

MURRINTOWN. [HIS village, which has a population estimated at 70, is four miles from Wexford. It is on rising ground, well sheltered, and is bordered by the plantations of Johns- town demesne. The land surrounding is chiefly adapted for tillage. Lord Maurice Fitzgerald and Mr. Eben. H. Rowe are the landlords. The and Fardiestown streams flow in the vicinity, and contain small trout. There is a fowl market on Mondays and Thursdays. The appearance of the village is neat and thrifty, the houses being in good repair, and slated. Johnstown Castle, the residence of Lord Maurice Fitzgerald, and Forthside House, the residence of Mr. Bryan O'Brien, are near. In the same vicinity are Rathlannan Castle, a quarter mile; Rathmacknee Castle, two miles ; and Kildavin Church, twelve from the village ; all situated upon the Johnstown estate. About 12 years since, Kildavin Church was repaired.

ROSSLARE. |HAT Tramore is to Waterford, Rosslare is to Wexford. -j-J It is within easy reach by railway, and only requires a ^HHI moderate display of enterprise to secure it a foremost Position among favourite Irish watering-places. The unfinished line between Wexford and Waterford passes at a distance of something over six miles from Wexford, and three miles further, 'erminates at the harbour of Rosslare, which is referred to Particularly "in the chapter on Harbours, &c, Borough of 188

Wexford. The line has a station at Ballygeary, where it receives passengers from Came and Churchtown, Ladies Island, and their districts. Rosslare's chief attraction is its gently shelving strand, several miles in length. There are cottages in existence for use by summer visitors, but there is still room for a great many more. A splendid opportunity is offered for a man who can afford to erect a roomy family hotel, and who has had experience as a first-rate hotel-keeper. A considerable number of fishermen and small farmers live at Rosslare. Tagoat is two miles from the railway station. Rosslare, Wexford, will be sufficient as a postal address. See County Directory, Wexford Borough, and sub-post-offices to "Wexford, several of which are within a radius of a few miles. The nearest post-office is at Kilrane, a quarter of a mile from the railway station.

TACUMSHANE. RURAL village of about ten houses, nine miles from Wexford, and one mile from Lake Tacumshane, in the Barony of Forth. Lake Tacumshane, whicft was by ancient writers called Lough Sale, has a holy island, though it was never in such repute as that of L?°X.? Island Lake. Bargy Castle and Butlerstown Castle, bum respectively by the Rossiters and the Butlers, and Tacumshane Castle, by the Hayses, are in the lake vicinity. Bargy Castle is used as a residence by Mr. John M. Harvey, and tn0US" •ascribed to the Rossiters, it is possible that it existed as fort or stronghold at a very early period.

NEW ROSS. Population in 1881 (including Rosbercon), 6,660. r , HE Parliamentary borough of New Ross is favour- ably situated on the Barrow, 83 miles south south- west from Dublin, 22 miles, English, from Wexford by mail road, 17 miles from Enniscorthy, 12 miles by road, and 22 miles by river from Waterford. Its nearest railway station is at Ballywilliam, distant 5 miles, English, with which it is connected by an efficient omnibus service. Much doubt exists as to the origin of the name New Ross. Ross is a Celtic word, meaning headland, and from the situation of the 'own, on the river, no lack of appropriateness would seem wanting if historians were willing to accept it as the true deriva- tion. According to tradition it was named in honor of Rose, daughter of Crume, King of Denmark. Upon the same authority the building of its walls is attributed to Rose, sister of Strongbow. Old Ross is about y/2 miles, Irish, to the east of New Ross. Its name, with almost equal appropriateness, might have been derived from the Welsh rhos, signifying moor. It was anciently a place of considerable importance, and possessed chartered privileges. New Ross was known as Rosspont. Its more favourable situation made it a strong rival of the older town. In a country with an increasing population, the old and the new, in time, would have grown to each other, but in the conditions, the new survived and the old decayed, until not a vestige of it remained. Its site is now occupied by a few houses on the estate of Lord Carew. There is a small unpretending Protestant Church, a way-side tavern, and a comfortable home- stead, occupied by Mr. Wm, Whitney. Opposite this, across the road, a mound marks the spot where the castle stood. Not a stone of the foundation remains, and the mound is chiefly remarkable for the fact that it was tunneled half through by a man named Cloney, who, sometime attenvards, emigrated to Australia. Down to a recent period it was customary to refer JP a portion of a field in the vicinity of the castle as " the street." 1 wo rows of , one on each side of the Old Ross Road, «xtend for about half a-mile, and in their track there is not the laintest suggestion of anything but rural beauty and repose.

Lime Burning Works. A charter granted by Roger le Bigod, early in the thirteenth century, shows that Old Ross had not then lost its supremacy. It provided that each new provost should be presented to him at Old Ross, or to his senescha] in Neiv Ross, or Rosspont. The shipping advantages of New Ross gave to it a strength that neither time nor circumstance could affect. Jealousies regarding Us growth, and privileges as a sea-port, and rival of Waterford, arose in the latter part of the thirteenth century. A great deal of bitter feeling was engendered thereby, but New Ross ultimately triumphed over Waterford. In 1372 it was elevated to the dignity of a borough. Donald Fuscus, head of the MacMur- roughs, in 1469, burned the town, and in the years following the population was greatly reduced in the effort to obtain reprisals. James, Duke of Ormond, besieged the town in 1641, in the interest of the king, and was compelled to retreat. After having arranged things at Wexford to his entire satisfao • tion, Cromwell laid siege to New Ross in October, 1649. It was garrisoned by 2,500 soldiers, and the governor was Sir Lucas Taaffe. On the 17th Cromwell sent a formai summons, demanding the surrender of the town. Firing was continued until Sir Lucas had arranged terms, by which he and his soldiers were permitted to march out bag-and-baggage. Of the soldiers, 600 were Englishmen, and they fraternized with the Cromwel- Iians, and remained behind. During the Rebellion of 1798 some heavy fighting was done at New Ross. James II. granted a charter to the borough in i687,anditwas put in force by the election of Patrick White and Luke Dormer, severally, as the first Mayor and Recorder. The Corporate records show that great public rejoicings were occasioned by this election, and that the Mayor, " mounted on a stately grey gelding, attended by fifty proper comely young men, all decently clad in white," marched to the Sovereign's House. In 1841, the borough lost its municipal privileges, through not having the requisite popnlation. A further change in its government took Place by the passage of the Towns'Improvement Act, in 1855. Us Commissioners elect a Chairman, annually. The Corporation property produces the moderate rental of ^320. The water rents come to about ,£50 ; the sales of street sweepings and refuse average /50 ; and the fines for drunkenness, about £30. To supplement the total of ,£450, there is imposed a borough rate, of •rom sixpence to a shilling in the pound. The streets are lighted with gas, and the water supply is drawn from springs which discharge into tanks, at the head of the town. The water is considered good, and efforts have been successfully made by Mr. John Tobin, the Town Clerk and Executive Sanitary Officer, to maintain the standard of purity. ¥weedy, It Cabinet JHafter, UPHOLSTERER & UNDERTAKER, SOUTH STREET.

THE WALLS, GATES AND BRIDGES. j|F the fact that New Ross was once surrounded by walls> there is ample evidence. Portions of them, in some parts several hundred feet in length, still attest the truth of history. Beginning at John's Gate, near the site of the Abbey of St. John, the old town wall may be traced through the grounds of Airmount, within view of the handsomely-situated residence of Mr. William Stephens. From that point it runs to the top of Goat Hill, where the original fosse affords sweet pasture for the useful animals who have given an undisputed name to the locality. The reasons which combined to induce the inhabitants to adopt this means of defence are set forth in a poetic effusion by Friar Michael, Kyldare. It is written in Norman or early French, and is preserved among the Harleian MSS., in the British Museum. In the quaint language of his time, the author relates that in 1264 the feuds of Maurice Fitimaurice, chief of the Geraldines, and Walter de Burgo, so alarmed the peaceful inhabitants, that they resolved to shut out the possibility of becoming involved in them. The line of cir- cumvallation was marked on the Feast of the Purification. Soon afterwards the citizens were called upon to give assistance in the work. Encouraged by the sounds of musical instruments, they put their hands to the building1. The priests joined, as did also mariners, to the number of 600, who marched in a body, preceded by a banner containing the picture of a ship. On each day of the week the members of a different trade were called upon, and cheerfully responded. On Sunday the ladies mustered a force of beauty and fashion, and, as pictured by the poet, eclipsed the doings of the entire week past. Merrymakings on an extensive scale followed the completion of the work, and Ladies' Gate and Maiden Tower were erected in honor of the women. The tower was used for the confinement of those who had incurred their displeasure. Chief among the ladies who interested themselves in the building of the walls, was Rose, widow of Robert Meyler, of Duncormick, who owned a large amount of property in New Ross. The gates particularly mentioned at the time, were the Bishop s, on the east; Aldgate, on the south ; East and South Gate. 1 he defence of the town from the walls was given in charge to 3.000 pikemen, 1,200 long bow archers, 363 cross bow men, and 104 horsemen. The gates, in after times, were known as the •nshtown, the Three Bullet, John's, Priory, Fair, Brogue Maker's, and Weavers. Mr. Tobin remembers to have seen three of the gates standing. *ne municipal arms of New Ross represent a stag and hound JAMES CULLEN. WHOLESALE AND FAMILY GROCER

This might have been the original structure, which connected the town with Rosbercon, and drew in the farm produce of the for miles around. A wooden bridge, 510 feet long, was built in J796, by Emanuel Cox, an American engineer, at a cost of ,£11,200. This was blocked by in 1867, and succumbed to the pressure- It was replaced in 1869 by a handsome and most substantial iron bridge, at a cost of £$0,137.

TRADE, MANUFACTURES, COMMERCE, &C. j|EW ROSS as a business place, in proportion to popula- tion, is regarded as first-rate. It is still a common saying among the people, that it could buy out Wexford. Many of the merchants are very wealthy. If the public spirit was commensurate with the wealth, few towns in Ireland could compare with it for manufacturing enterprise. With its broad avenue to the ocean, and splendid quays, nothing should prevent its inhabitants from attaining an enviable position in this respect. At present it has a brewery, a mineral water factory, a bacon factory, second to none, a tannery, a tobacco and snuff factory, malting houses, corn mills, a roofing factory, and some woollen weaving. The trade is chiefly of a local character, and is con- fined to articles required for consumption by the farmers of the surrounding country. This field of operation has proved a rich one to many of the merchants. New Ross is the market, on Wednesdays and Saturdays, for the farm produce of a district containing choice lands of two counties. Its fowl market, every Saturday, is always well attended, and sometimes occupies almost the entire length of the quay. Every day in the season there is a corn market. The salmon fishery is a source of con- siderable profit to the town ; it gives employment to about 600 persons, and the money produced for the catch goes to the merchants for food and other supplies. Owing to the competition of the railway and the Barrow Navi- gation Company, a great reduction has occurred in the tonnage of shipping since 1844. Then it aggregated 18,000. The Albinos, barque, belonging to Messrs. James E. Galavan & Co., and a coasting schooner, are the only sea-going vessels owned >n the port. It is believed that a considerable increase in the number of coasters will result from the opening of railway com- munication between Wicklow and Carlow. The line to Palace £ast, it is believed, will be ready for traffic in about two years. Colliers, owned elsewhere, supply New Ross with coals. Twenty JAMES CULLEN,

of them often discharge at the same time. New Ross, contributed .£30,000 to the revenue of the country last year. This sum was raised from spirits, teas, tobacco, and brewing. River communication with Waterford, for passengers, is main- tained by a small steamer, which runs up and down every day. Potatoes, oats, and barley are the principal crops raised in the County Wexford district of New Ross. The soil is light, and not adapted to profitable wheat growing. In the Kilkenny- County district the land is excellent for all kinds of crops. is extensively engaged in at both sides of the Barrow.

ST. MARY'S CHURCH (I. C.) jLD accounts variously style what is now the Protestant 11 parish place of worship (St Mary's), as Christ Church, and St. Saviours. It possesses a ruin whose decayed elegance, and dignified proportions render it an object of great interest to tourists. There is no more conspicuous position in the town than that which it occupies on the hill-side. A spacious burial ground surrounds it, and is used in common by Catholics and Protestants. A portion only of the ancient church has been restored. The unrestored part bears evidence of most Careful treatment, without which, owing to the crumbly nature of Jtoe stone, it would not have so well resisted the ravages of time. The northern transept contains a curious and beautiful relic in the shape of a tomb, upon which is the recumbent figure of a woman. Several opinions exist regarding this tomb. It is sup- posed to have been erected to the memory of one of the twcj Roses, whose names are associated with the building of the town walls—Rose, sister of Strongbow, and Rose, widow of Robert Meyler. While the local guides continue to tell of the Roses and their works the ferns wave their broad fronds over the tomb, the moss steals into the stiff folds of the gown and the bit of broken pillar, which serves as a headstone—gives no clue. A headless male figure, in armor, near by, has seen harder fortune. "_ is broken in several fragments. A broad stone under the window of the same transept has a curiously entwined cross, and there are carved emblems upon the side of the tomb which it covers. A tablet in the wall bears the name of Matthew Dormer, 1648. In 1649 Cromwell occupied the house of a family of that name. A Nicholas Dormer represented the borough in 1639, and was afterwards indicted for rebellion. The end wall of the chancel •s so loaded with ivy that the original fabric is scarcely dis- cernible from the outside. Its point is surmounted by a cross.

In the southern side a recess, perhaps originally a credence table, is surrounded by weather-worn carvings. In the south transept some of the carved decorations of the windows are well preserved, being in filagree, terminated by heads which retain some of their original character. A much defaced inscrip- tion on an old tomb is dated 1594- Of the crypt which runs beneath the south transept tradition says, that from it a passage extends under the bed of the river: As far as explored, it has two compartments, in which are the tombs ot Robert Tyndall, J.P., Oaklands, 1877, and William Cherry, 1878. The walk which leads around the back of the church gains interest from the number of representative names which meet the eye. Along the side of the church some of the tombs are arranged one higher than another, so as to form broad steps. A fine avenue of trees shades the path by the northern boundary wall, which is thickly studded with monumental tablets. The entrance of the modern church is characterized by plain- ness and solidity. Its interior is enriched by a great number ot monuments and mural tablets. A low arch spans the chancel opening, within which are monuments to Charles Tottenham, M.P., and his wife, daughter of Viscount Loftus, 1795. Imme- diately beneath them is an ancient stone coffin ot great size. The simplicity which is the rule in the other parts of the building, is extended to all its fittings and appointments. At the second south window is a testimonial to Standish Hartrich, a mer- chant of New Ross, which was erected by his friends and townsmen. In the north wall a tablet records the fate of Thomas Edward Jones, who was lost on the U. b. bteamer, Arctic, at Cape Race, 1854. Many of the tablets m the gallery walls are of fine material and workmanship.

The interior is light. There is a high ceiling, and the decoration is unpre- tending. A deep and capacious gallery, in which1 there is an exceUent organ, is reached from both sides of the building^ A large tablet is set in the wall of the southern aisle to the memory of-Rev. William Brennan, Parish Priest, 1854, and a second similar one to Rev. James Hennessy, 1818.

THE CONVENT CHAPEL. [HE Chapel known by this name stands at the top of one of the steepest of New Ross streets, and the approach from town is rarely, if ever, used for vehicles. From its yard, a great extent of country, the bridge, and much of the town is visible. The interior of the building is of modest pro- portions, though containing much to show the affectionate interest of the congregation. The Station pictures were each presented by a different person, the donors being : Mr. John B. Cullen, Mr. Patrick C. Devine, Mrs. E. Power, Mr. P. Byrne, Mrs. Woods, Mrs. Jane Hughes, Mr. Robert White, Mr. James E. Galavan, J.P., Mr. P. Hickey, Mr. John Browne, Messrs. Michael and Martin Murphy, Mr. James Hutchinson, Mr. Wm. Howlett, and Mrs. Mary Meehan. On the right of the entrance a grey tablet, with white letters, commemorates James Cullen, his wife Mary and children, with appropriate emblems. A similar memorial is to Mary Sutton, wife of Mr. John Sutton, Irishtown. A white marble scroll bears the names of Thomas and Bridget Devine. The next is a tablet to Catherine Flood, erected by her husband, Wm. Flood, and one by Jno. Black to his wife, her mother and father. A mural monument resting on marble claws, perpetuates the memory of A. Hughes and his children. The back-ground of the altar occupies the entire width of the church, and is an architectural structure of dark wood, upheld by Corinthian pillars. Over the altar of the Virgin, in a panel, is a copy of Murillo's Assumption ; on the right a picture of the Sacred Heart, and on the left St. Joseph and Child. Above the high altar is a representation of the Crucifixion. The sanctuary is lighted on either side by circular coloured windows. Near the pulpit, on the eastern wall, are monu- mental tablets to Rev. Martin Crane, O.S.A., and Rev. James Crane, O.S.A., with white marble inverted torches on a black marble ground. A memorial in black and white marble records the name of Mrs. Johanna Barron of Portobello. The Rev. Terence MacMahon, O.S.A., 1863, has a handsome inscribed monument recording the respect and affection of his people. The churchyard walls are thickly set with monuments on either •side, and the ground nearly paved with lettered slabs. WM. HOWLETT, CORN, FLOUR, SEED,

The church is small, and has diamond-paned clear windows, and a rustic porch. Its walls are entirely clothed in well trimmed ivy. A gate near the door gives a bright glimpse of the Rectory beyond. Here and there, almost hidden, a piece of old carving suggests the near- ness of the foundation of the ancient Monastery of Rosbercon, which was built by the families of Grace and Walsh, and. dedicated to the Assumption of the Virgin.

ROSBERCON CATHOLIC CHAPEL. jjOSBERCON Catholic Chapel is a small, plain structure, with two wings, and three galleries, each of which has a fair seating capacity. A little altar, simply orna- mented, occupies a narrow space behind the rail, and is in such close proximity to the seats outside as to suggest that comfort- able and kindly relation between the clergyman and his flock which often lends a charm to homely little churches that is lacking in those of great architectural pretension.

WALKS AND DRIVES. SEW places are so greatly favoured as New Ross in respect of walks and drives. The several roads leading from it are in a high degree attractive to the lovers of picturesque scenery. Above the upper road to Ballywilliatn is Mount Garrett Castle, built by the Butlers. With retreating hills, and the behind it, this ruin forms a very good subject for a picture. The road to Fethard is fertile in scenic surprises. The river lends itself to a hundred charming effects, which are continually changing. At one point Mount Brandon's, blue peak may be seen beyond other hills and near green pastures; again, on the left a glade of the softest and fairest green rivets the attention. Hills, rocks, and river in endless combination, make the road beautiful. It is because of this charming variety that the river journey from New Ross to. Waterford is the cheapest shilling's worth to be found in the county. At the Rosbercon side there is, first of all, the predominating MATTHEW HUTGHINSON,

Turning to the right at the opposite side, a favourite ramble passes the boat-house and winds up the river, on the top of the bank, which, for nearly a mile, is sheltered by forest trees, on the way to the new railway tunnel, which opens on the opposite bank. Further along, near Rosemount, the residence of Mr. James Byrne, J.P., the Barrow and Nore meet in a broad valley. The handsome private residences on the Rosbercon side of the Barrow include the Castle, Mr. A. E. Graves. This occupies a. portion of the site of the Monastery, which, in 1545, John Parker, a considerable holder of Church property, was permitted to sell to John Blake. The grounds are ample, and are well kept. On the way up the steep hill, past the Castle, are the Glebe House, vine-clad, Rev. Boles Reeves, and the pretty cottage of Mr. Richard Cherry. Mr. Wm. Carr's residence is approached from Chapel Road, and affords a view of the valley of the Barrow. Bawn James, Mr. John B. Cullen, is one of the finest and most agreeably situated of the private residences in the vicinity. The house is.new, has a handsome porch, and stands in a park tastefully planted with ornamental trees and shrubs, and brightened by the arts of the landscape gardener. Chilcomb, Mr. Boyd, is another of the prettily situated places. The road running past it is bordered by rows of and larch, and descends to the river. From Rosbercon, the view of New Ross creeping up the steep hill, its church spires, pointing still higher, the bridge, factories, and storehouses reflecting in the depths of the river, is a most impressive one, and cannot fail to elicit the admiration of strangers. A drive from New Ross, which affords an opportunity for much sightseeing, leads through the Irishtown, which is nearly 200 feet broad. In this the fairs are held. It contains a cross, part ancient and part modern. At the head of the street is the Convent of the Good Shepherd, and further along the church- yard of St. Stephen, called also "the Little Churchyard," although several acres in extent. An old gateway, bearing •evidence of former grandeur, is on the boundary of the Church- yard. It once led to the Red House, the family seat of the iottenhams. The Maudlins is next reached, at the foot of a hill. Many old houses, with curiously constructed doorways, are seen at both sides of the street.

While standing in the door-way, at the foot of the stairs, he heard the cries of a favourite dog, and started down the hill to discover the cause. He had not gone far when the shaft was struck by lightning at the top, and the iron door at the bottom was wrenched from its hinges and thrown down the decline. The monument is 130 feet high, and is in a grove which is a favourite resort for picnic parties. In the vicinity is Scullaboge Barn, the scene of one of the shocking incidents of the Rebellion of 1798. Returning from the Monument by way of Ballynaboola and Cushenstown, a pretty gothic Catholic Church and Presbytery- are seen at the latter place. They are enclosed in well-kept grounds, and serve admirably to perpetuate the memory of the ^ery Rev. Canon Murphy, P.P., by whom they were erected. peg-Erin Hill, about a mile and a half from New Ross, is interesting on the return journey.

The site is the highest at New Ross. The avenue is about a half a mile in length, and has on either side many trees of great size and beauty. The back entrance [cads down to the Wexford Mail Road, and brings into view Koseville, Mr. Shanahan; Ashton, Mr. Thos.E. Jeffares; Mary- "ile, Mr. W.

An annual regatta occurs in August, and it is usual for the townspeople to contribute liberally towards the purchase of the prizes offered for competition. The club owns thirty boats, and several of the members have yachts and other pleasure craft of their own. Dr. Rossiter, Mr. Elly Graves, and Mr. Arthur B. Cherry, have fast sailing yachts. The Barrow and Ballynaboola stream afford good sport for anglers. Full information on this subject can be obtained by communicating with the hotel proprietors.

DUNBRODY ABBEY. TWO days' tour from New Ross should make Dunbrody Abbey the first stopping place. The distance is about six miles, and the road leads through a district highly favored by nature. Annaghs Castle, in a fair state of preserva- tion, gives its name to a large mansion, said to have been built by a Mr. Murphy in 1798, and of materials, all of which were brought from England. Mr. Edward Carr, Solicitor, Camlin, has a pretty place on the left bank of the Barrow. Horeswood Chapel, Fruit Hill, Miss Julia Glascott, Kilmanock House, Capt. Samuel Barrett, and the village of , Priesthaggard, are all passed on the way. Capt. Barrett's house and grounds are well worth seeing, but it is not necessary to break the journey for the purpose, considering that their attractions are manifest from the tower of Dunbrody Abbey, and form part of the picture which includes the confluence of the Suir and Barrow. It would be difficult to give in writing an adequate idea of the nobility of architecture suggested by what remains of Dunbrody Abbey. Its foundation as a religious institution was a grant of lands by Harvey of Mt. Maurice, 1178, to the Cistercian Monks. Richard, Earl of Pembroke, and Walter, his grandson, were its bene- factors, a great part o( the .buildings having been erected by Herlewin, Bishop of Leighlin, whose remains were interred in the Abbey, 1216. Edward III. and Henry IV confirmed the grants of the institution. In 1544 the Abbey was surrendered by its last Abbot, Alexander Devereux, who became the first Protestant Bishop of Ferns. The possessions of Dunbrody were extensive, and were granted by Henry VIII. in 1546, to Sir Osborne Etchingham in exchange for property in Norfolk, Eng- land. By marriage, in 1660, the Dunbrody property passed to the family of Chichester, in whose hands it remains at the pre- sent day. Lieut.-Col. Arthur Chichester, was raised to the THE CLOTH HALL.

During the past fifty years, changes have been wrought upon the fabric which has withstood the wear and tear of centuries. Of the cross- shaped building, the chancel and tower, are in good preserva- tion, the walls of the former, and part of the latter rejoicing in a coat of rVy^which it is a delight to look upon. The site of the ruin is somewhat elevated, nnd its rugged lines and soft masses cut clearly against the sky, which, in this favourable southern locality, is fair and warm more frequently than otherwise. Off the south transept are three small apart- ments groined and vaulted. The arches which support the massive short tower are magnificent in height, and show here and there traces of former richness. The remaining wall of the nave has its arches half filled with masonry, and possesses •double upper windows with filagree ornamentation and triple arches. At the western end one tall shaft marks the place once occupied by a remarkable window, much praised by former writers. From this point there is a fine view of the interior. All views of the ruin are good, new and charming irregularities revealing themselves at every turning.

TJNTERN ABBEY: j|T the extremity of Bannow Bay, on a small stream known as the Bannow River, is the estate of Tintern. It is about n miles, Irish, from New Ross, and can be approached by direct road, or taken into the two days' trip which enables the tourist to pass through Arthurstown, Lord Templemore's, Dunbrody Park, Duncannon, and spend a night at Fethard, the favourite watering place of the merchants ef New Ross. The ancient Abbey of Tintern is now partly incor- porated in the dwelling of Mrs. and the Misses Colclough. Permission to view the Abbey and its splendid wooded demesne, is freely given. The foundation of Tintern Abbey was a thank- offering made by William, Earl of Pembroke, on escape from great peril at sea. His vow compelled him to build a convent at the point where he should land. This being on the site of Tintern, he there established monks, brought from Tintern Abbey, in Monmouthshire, gave them ample grants of land, and liberties equal to Dunbrody. In the 18th year of Elizabeth, John Power, the last Abbot, surrendered the house, which was granted in 1576, together with »s large possessions, to Anthony Colclough, at the annual rent °f 26 shillings and 4 pence, and it has ever since remained to yne Colclough family. Of the ancient structure, much is stand- "ig in a disguised condition, various additions having been made MOLLOY & O'SULLIVAN (JEREMIAH O'SULLIVAN), Wl\ole#de ki\d fjetkil ¥c&, Wine kqd spirit ]Vfefdi\^t^.

THE SEVEN CASTLES OF . j|ITHIN a short drive of Tintern Abbey, on the right bank of the Bannow River, are the Seven Castles of Clon- mines, or to describe them more correctly, the relics of the strongholds which defended the ancient Abbey of Clon- mines. Two castles and the ruin of a small church stand in the shelter of a grove, at the right of the entrance gate to the farm residence of Mr. Richard Codd. Comparatively little decay is- observable in the first of these. The arches are solid, and the corners of the cut stone and groining of the vault are in an excellent state. Further along the avenue, a gate leads to the larger number of ruins, including a tower at the far end of the field, having an accessible loft, the remains of the monastery, and its fortified church. The Abbey of Clonmines was founded by the Cavanaghs, descendants of the MacMurroughs, Kings of Lei^ster, ten years before their sovereignty passed to Richard II. Nicholas Wadding was the last Prior. He surrendered to Henry VIII., in the 35th year of the reign of that monarch. The property was granted to John Parker, at the annual rent of 2s. 4d., Irish money. The house in which Mr. Codd resides occupies the site, and contains a portion of the walls of one of the Seven Castles. The owner of the estate is Mr. Matthew P. D'Arcy, Kilcroney, Bray. Since it came into his possession he has endeavoured to preserve the ruins in their picturesque form. In 1868, the chancel window of the Abbey was almost perfect. At present, only one piece of tracery remains. There are 39 tenants on the estate,, and Mr. John Cullin, J.P., of Enniscorthy, is the agent. Clonmines was once a town of considerable size, and was surrounded by a rampart and fosse. The name was derived from mines of silver and lead at the opposite side of the river. The pits, and a large amount of the material cast out from the shafts, are still visible from a distance, and there is a tall chimney and unroofed engine house. The mines had to be abandoned owing to the g'reat difficulty in keeping out the water 5* the river. Clonmines was an important shipping place in the Danish period, and its decay is attributed to the closing of the channel by sand banks. mi mmiiii

' BACON CURING IN NEW BOSS. SAMUEL KOUGH'S bacon factory was established half a century ago by his grandfather, whose name was also Samuel Kough. At that time heavy salting was generally adopted for curing purposes. The product was shipped to London and the North of England. Mr. Kough's brand held first place in the London market. He took his son, Mr. Eichard Goff Kough, into partnership in 1865, and the firm was known as Kough & Son, and under this title continued to enjoy the prestige previously secured. To meet the change of taste from heavy salt to mild cure, Mr. E. G. Kough introduced the ice curing system in its best form, and with the most satisfactory results'. His father died in 1874, and he soon afterward made London his place of residence. The business then devolved on the present Mr. Samuel Kough, grandson of the founder, who had for many years"been associated in the active management of it. Mr. R. G. Kough became a partner in the firm of Messrs. Jones Brothers, direct agents for Air. Samuel Kough, whose brand still holds first place in the i-ondon market. Mr. Kough's factory is conveniently situated for every pur- pose necessary to vigorous operation. Its entrance is on the yuay of New Ross, immediately in front of the shipping point, tmis avoiding the heavy item of cartage, and saving a great deal <« time. The factory has a depth of about 250 feet, and ««charges from its packing house into lighters at the quay. mis is the mode of transit to Waterford, where transhipment •s made, and prompt delivery in London secured by means of we steamship and train service of the Great Western Railway Tfia Milford.

MESSRS. A. STEPHENS & SON. BHE premises occupied by this enterprising 'firm ran beside John Street and Creywell Road for [about an eighth of a mile. They have an average breadth of about 250 feet, and extend to the edge of the river, where there is a quay the entire length, at which vessels of 2,000 tons burden may be moored. The corn department of the extensive business of Messrs. A. Stephens & Son requires the use of three stores. Of these, the first, at the Creywell side, is seven stories high, has a capacity for about 25,000 barrels, and runs the full breadth from east to west. The second corn 'store is five stories high. It runs parallel with the first, and has a capacity for about 10,000 barrels. The third corn store is likewise in parallel line. It is lour stories high, and has a capacity for about 12,000 barrels. _ In the coal department the extent of space occupied by sheds is able to accommodate 10,000 tons. Coals are sent to merchants and consumers in a circuit of twenty miles. Inistioge is supplied by boat. In the milling department one of Greenhill's patent discs is used for grinding Indian corn, barley, and wheat. Although situated in close proximity to such immense water power, it has oeen found more convenient to use steam. One of Robey"s M engines drive* the machinery. Messrs. A. Stephens & Son began business at New Ross in 1079, but the premises they occupy, for more than a hundred years, had been devoted to similar uses. Michael McCormick, a merchant well known in Wexford, Kilkenny, and Waterford, Jounded the corn and coal business. 1 he steam mill and south corn store occupy the site of the ancient Abbey of St. John. At the time of the erection of the corn store, in 1880, several broken sculptures and fragments of ooonvay arches were discovered in the foundations. i he possibilities for the further extension of the buildings of lessrs. A. Stephens & Son are very great. There is a large iniit and vegetable garden at the upper end of the premises, with river frontage, all of which may be utilized, in tVS Torthy of remark that the water at the Stephen's Quay, twe t owest state of the tide, averages from twenty-one to enty-two feet.

THE CREYWELL BREWERY AND MINERAL WATER FACTORY. [|T a distance of about a quarter of a mile from the centre of the town, using the Tholsel as the point of departure, stand the Creywell brewery, malthouses, and mineral water factory of Messrs. Cherry, Brothers. In point of situation it would be difficult to find anywhere one so convenient and attractive. A large slice of the Creywell Hill seems to have Kri-CUt away t0 S>ve the requisite space for the huge pile of buildings which has been erected. The premises consist of five aiires> and are approached by a broad avenue, to the right of which is a shrubbery maintained in a highly ornamental state, •i his is terminated by a lodge house and bow-way, and a gate that effectually stops communication with the grounds of Crey- well House, the residence of Mrs. Cherry. Creywell House is at the head of a series of admirably con- trived terraces descending to the side of the Barrow. It has an exquisite landscape garden, ample fruit and vegetable gardens, and conservatories. The road to the brewery, malthouses, and jactory, passes through the grounds and enters a bow-way to the m-ewery yard, where the highest building is a malt-house, seven wines.

Before the spring was tapped in the river, all the water for the brewery had to be brought from the upper end of the town. Originally, the Creywell brewery was a distillery. It was founded about a hundred years ago by Roe & Fletcher. It afterwards served the purpose of a bank. The Cherry Brothers entered into possession about fifty-five years ago. One of them, Mr. Richard Cherry, still survives; the other, Mr. William Cherry, died in 1868. His son, Mr. Arthur B. Cherry, is at present the brewer and active manager of the concerns.

MESSRS. JAMES GALAVAN & CO. jjMONG the shipowners of New Ross engaged in the foreign trade, none remain but Messrs. James Galavan & Co. This firm has held its way steadily through all the commercial changes since 1826. It was established in that year by Mr. James Galavan, father of Mr. James E. Galavan, J-P-, and devoted its best energies to the timber trade. In furtherance of a most enterprising programme, the barque ttergmann, 384 tons register, and the barque Albinus, 484 tons register, were purchased, and made regular trips from the principal timber ports of America to New Ross. In 1840 a coal department was added, and the schooner t-nterprise, 72 tons register, and the schooner J. M. Ternan, 86 Jf?"s register, were purchased for special service as colliers. 1 ne Bergmann was lost in 1865, and the Albinus has continued to make regular voyages, and is at present the only foreign- going ship owned in New Ross. In 1854 a department for the sale of Peruvian guano was opened, and in 1861 the firm embarked in the artificial manure trade. Four yards °i immense proportions are used for the accommodation °' the several departments. Yard number one runs clear tnrough from South Street to the Quay, a distance of about 350 st t haS-a breadth of about 250 feet. At one end there is a store of considerable capacity devoted to guano, artificial manures ana cement. The rest of the space in the yard is occupied by oaJs, deals, and sawed timber. Yard number two, one o 5 t . feet square, is devoted to square timber, slates, tiles,

The timber trade of Messrs. James Galavan & Co. is as large as ever, but of a •different character. Mr. James E. Galavan, who is the present owner of the several interests of Messrs. James Galavan & Co., has a considerable amount of house property in New Ross, and is an extensive landed proprietor in the County Wexford. He is a County Magistrate, has been twice chairman of the Town Commis- sioners, was for three years, successively, elected to the Chair- manship of the New Ross Board of Guardians, and is, for the "third time in succession, filling the position of Chairman of the Harbour Board.

TOBACCO AND SNUFF MANUFACTURE AT NEW ROSS. |R. JOSEPH JEFFARES began the manufacture of tobacco and snuff at New Ross in 1811, and continued it most successfully for upwards of forty years. His son, Mr. William Jeffares, in 1852, was engaged in a similar industry in the vicinity of Christ Church, Dublin. Upon the invitation of his father, he removed to New Ross, in 1853, and went into partnership with him. Mr. William Jeffares had had consider- able experience, and employed it to advantage, in the manu- facture of tobacco and snuff. Mr. Joseph Jeffares was a man of remarkable business ability, and having seen a splendid opportunity for heavy operations in the corn trade, gave over the tobacco factory entirely to his son, and entered it. Up to the time of his death, in extreme old age, there was no more enterprising citizen of New Ross, whose shipping trade was largely upheld by his efforts. Mr. William Jeffares carried on a tallow chandlery, in addition to the tobacco and snuff factory. Indeed, it might be said that the three branches had been in vigorous operation before his father entered the corn trade. The candles had a yellow " cast," and it is claimed for them to this day, that they hold color and are free from the odor which is often so offensively distinct in the sickly grey article. p ,rX.William Jeffares died in 1882. His son, Mr. Thomas *•• Jeffares, under the style of William Jeffares & Son, continues tie business, attached to which there is a wholesale and family grocery establishment. CARPETS. Cloths.

Fifteen presses are used in the manufacture of tobacco, the grades of which include roll, coil, and grass cut. One of the modern features is the stove, put up by a famous Cork tobacco kiln builder. It can dry 480 lbs. of tobacco at a time. Snuff manufacture is carried on according to the old method, "the mill being worked by three men. A great deal of attention is given to the toasting, and this is relied upon to keep the Jeffares brand in the front rank. The raw tobacco is stored by Messrs. William Jeffares & Son, in their own bonded warehouse, •Charles Street. Wexford and Kilkenny Counties consume all the tobacco and snuff manufactured by the firm. Messrs. William Jeffares & Son nave no rivals in these counties". Two efforts to establish tobacco factories were made at New Ross, during the career of Mr. Joseph Jeffares, but neither proved successful.

BALLYMITTY. [Good Trout Fishing.) jALLYMITTY is a pretilly situated rural village, three miles from Carrig-on-Bannow, and eleven, English, from Wexford, four from Taghmon, and eighteen from New Ross. The surrounding lands are better adapted to tillage than pasture, but some are good for both. The village is partly on an eminence, and in its neighbourhood are the ruins of the Castle of Kilcavin, built by Fitzhenry, and several handsome private residences. The Coragh stream affords good trout fishing. MVRev.. Jamejames BogganUoggan, C.C. FARMERS, LANDOWNERS, J.Donnelly, Post Master,grocer,etc. &c. Alary Hore, mistress, Nat.

It is five miles from New Ross, in the Barony isantry, and the lands of the surrounding country are good '°i tillage.

JARRIG-ON-BANNOW is the name of the prettily situated village which the Postal authorities persist in calling Bannow. It is twelve miles, Irish, from Wexford, and thirteen from New Ross. The population of the village and its immediate vicinity is about 200. The houses are in good repair, and have an inviting appearance. As a point for a view of the sur- rounding country, there is none finer in the county. Carrig has a monthly fair, and a fowl market every Wednesday. Rosegar- land, the splendid residence of Mr. Leigh, is about three miles from it, and the way lies through a district abounding in ancient and picturesque sights. The Catholic and Protestant (I.C.) Churches of Carrig, architecturally, are fine edifices, and have well kept grounds. A special interest attaches to the former, for the reason that it has in it the holy water font which origin- ally belonged to the ancient Church of Bannow. Its form is square, and it stands about four feet from the floor. Bannow Church is on a point which overlooks the entrance to Bannow Bay. The ruin is small, but has much to attract the archaeologist. A striking object is a square piece of masonry, said to have at one time formed part of the Town House of the buried Town of Bannow. Not the least curious of the many curious additions to the ruin are the monuments, more than a score of which have been erected to the memory of natives of extreme old age. Near the Church door there is one which records the death of Walter French, of Grange, who died in 1701. The reading of the slab on which the name appears is done with so much difficulty as to give rise to considerable doubt as to whether the age attained by Mrv French was 104 or 140. A majority of the residents of Bannow hold the opinion that he reached 140. It is said, furthermore, that, but for an accident, he might have lived much longer. While on his way from Wexford to his farm at Grange, with a load of iron, the car broke down. He carried the iron on his back for the rest of the distance, and died from fatigue. Many of his kindred have lived to ages ranging between 80 and 100, a fact verified in well cut letters on the slabs which mark their graves, in the same church-yard. 259 The town of Bannow has often been referred to as the Irish Herculaneum. It is buried beneath the sand, but there is -no reason whatever to believe that in its destruction any loss of life occurred. The reasonable conclusion is that it fell into decay through loss of the commerce which it once enjoyed. The movement of the sand upon the constant winds, suggests to the poetic mind the manner of the destruction. For the following complete list of streets, and other valuable information, I am indebted to the courtesy of Mr. William Murphy, Post Master of Bannow : High Street, Little Street, Weaver Street, Lady's Street, St. Mary's Street, George's Street, Upper Street, Ivory Street, St. Toolock Street, Back Street, Market Place, St. John's Gate, Bride Street, Selskar Street, Hayes Lane. Bannow, it is •claimed, was the oldest corporate town in Ireland. Some superficial excavations made by the late Captain Boyse, E.N., in 1865, resulted in the discovery of the foundation of a large house, and of a slab bearing date 1398. The church-yard ef Bannow was first used as a burial place in 1661. What is called Bannow Island, contains about 500 acres, and is occupied by less than a dozen families. Sometimes the tide surrounds it, and this is now the only claim it has to be called an island. Major Boyse's residence, Bannow House, is one of the finest in the County Wexford, but he seldom lives in it. Mrs. S. C. Hall, nee Fielding, the gifted authoress, was a native of Graigue, in the neighbourhood, where the initials of her maiden name, •A.M.F., are cut into a tree near the wall and chimney-shaft which mark the site of her old home.

PALACE, j]O-CALLED because it was the site of one of the Palaces of McMurrough, King of Leinster. Nothing now remains of the foundations. It was supposed to have existed on the property of Major Harman. There is no village at the Palace of the post-office. It is two miles from the Dublin • and Wicklovv Railway Station at Palace East, six miles from New Ross, and eighteen from Wexford. Major Harman's private residence is the handsomest in the vicinity.

TAGHMON. j|N the barony of Shelmaliere West, is situated the most important of the postal centres of which New Ross is head. Taghmon is nine miles, English, from Wexford, and eighteen from New Ross. It has no general market, but there is a fowl market held every Tuesday. Its chief business interest is derived from twenty-one fairs, the number annually held. The houses for the greater part are slated, and in fair repair. Those that are thatched are decaying. The village is on the side of a hill, and is not well sheltered. Taghmon, in 1777) was a Parliamentary borough, represented by Lieut.-Col. Thomas Pigott, and William Alexander. The name is derived from Thea°h Munno, House of Munno. St. Munno founded an Augustinian monastery there in the sixth century. In 917 lt was plundered by the Danes. McMurrough, King of Leinster, subsequently made a grant of it to the Abbey of Ferns. Almost in the centre of the village are the ruins of the castle which once belonged to Sir Gilbert TalbQt, and in which he frequently held court. It is on the property, now in Chancery, of the late Lord Euthven. He and the Messrs. Waddye were the principal landed proprietors of the district. CATHOLIC CHURCH. PETTY SESSIONS COURT. Very Rev.

It commands the entrance to the Harbour of Waterford, and was occupied, July, 1884, by a detachment of the 24th Regiment. The fort is built on a rock, at the foot of the hill upon which the village stands. Cromwell was so impressed with its strength, that he endeavoured to starve out the garrison, but he did not wait long enough to secure success. Ireton, in 1650, laid siege to it. The commander having heard of the surrender of Waterford, thought " useless to hold out. The adherents of James II. were in possession in 1690, under Captain Michael Burke, but were compelled to yield by the force of circumstances, backed by sixteen ships of war, commanded by Sir Cloudsley Shovel. Uuncannon is better than twelve miles from New Ross. Its population, of about 300, finds occupation mainly in fishing, 'here is daily communication with Waterford by steamer. j®E tne handsome private residences of the vicinity are those TV Aoranam Stephens, J.P., and Mr. James Haughton. ;,"e names of the Catholic and Church of Ireland Clergymen of tne Parish will be found under the head of Arthurstown.

FETHARD, BAG-AN-BUN AND TOWER OF HOOK. j]ETHARD is a favorite sea-side summer resort. It has a strand three miles in length, and many other attractions for visitors. The distance to New Ross is fourteen miles, and Ballywilliam railway station is about fifteen miles. In 1881 the population, largely composed of fishermen, was 263. Much of the lands between Duncannon and Fethard are very poor, and require no end of industry to raise crops from them. Fethard occupies a prominent position on the coast, and has within a short distance, many places of interest. It was a Par- liamentary borough at the time of the Union. Its ancient castle, in excellent preservation, forms part of the residence of the Rev. John Lymbery, Assistant-Minister of the Church of Ireland. It is covered with ivy at the top, and has a most inviting appear- ance. Near it is the Protestant Parish Church, whose burial place has a monument about eight feet high, on which are re- corded the names of several young girls, drowned in the last century. While on a Sunday excursion to the Keeraghs, a couple of small islands in Ballyteige Bay, the boat was upset; the young men of the party saved themselves by swimming. Bag-an-Bun promontory is one of the sights of Fethard. It was here that Robert Fitzstephen and his followers landed from the two ships, The Bag and the The Bun, with the determina- tion to conquer or perish ; the ships were burned—hence the name. A marks the landing place, and furnishes a charming look-out point for the tenant, Mr. Edward Lymbery, brother of the clergyman of the same name. The Hook is a long neck of land, to the west of which is the Harbour of Waterford. It is part of the estate of the Marquis of Ely, and contains , a stately mansion, possessing many objects worth the inspection of the tourist. At the head of the peninsula is the famous Tower of Hook, the erection of which has been attributed to Rose, sister of Strongbow. It has been long in use as a lighthouse, although, judging from the immense thickness of the walls, that was not the purpose for which it was originally intended. 271

point of situation Enniscorthy has few rivals. It rises from both sides of the Slaney to handsome and fertile heights. There are mountains to the north, west, and south, and in every direction, within a short distance, private residences, in , ornamental parks, surrounded by trees.

Enniscorthy is in the middle of the County, 77% miles by- rail from Dublin, and 14 from Wexford. It is one of the small number of Irish towns that have increased in population since 1861. According to the census of that year, it was 5,396. Ten years later it was 5,594, and in 1881 it was 5,666. The lands of the surrounding country are excellent for pasture and tillage, and the produce finds market at Enniscorthy every day in the season, and all through the year on Thursdays and Saturdays. Flour manufacture is the most important of the local industries. There is a growing desire on the part of the leading residents to give the town a special prominence over all others in the county in the respect of manufactures. In the milling branches it already stands at the head. In spite of the drawbacks which nave affected this and other places depending largely on the prosperity of the agricultural classes, the trade of Enniscorthy has continued in a thoroughly sound condition. Building operations in nearly every street bear testimony to the progres- sive spirit of the people. A handsome business house, with terra cotta facings, has just been finished in Slaney Street, inere is a new and handsome row of houses called St. John's 1 errace. The Shannon is losing the last of its poorly constructed cottages, which are being replaced by artizans' dwellings of

Afterwards, Sir Henry Wallop, Knight, obtained possession. The Abbey of St. Johns—of which Gerald de Prendergast was Patron—passed by lease to the Poet Spenser, for a term of years from 1581. Cromwell's forces appeared before the Castle in 1649, and found little difficulty in persuading the garrison to surrender and march out. An ancestor of the Carews followed in the owner- ship of the town, and after a time, in exchange for other property, it was returned to the Wallops. James II. had some adherents among the inhabitants, and passed a night with them on the road to Duncannon. The first Militia Corps in Ireland is said to have been raised at Enniscorthy by Vesey Colclough in '773"4. One of the most stirring events of the Rebellion of 1798 occurred at Enniscorthy. A large body of insurgents, after a severe battle, captured it from the King's forces. It was retaken by a stratagem of the King's Commander, Gen. Johnson, the main feature of which was a liberal use of intoxicints. , James I. granted a charter to the town vesting its government in a portrieve, twelve free burgesses, and a commonalty, assisted a r y ecorder: town clerk, and two sergeants at mace. It was a Parliamentary borough before the Union. It is now governed »y Commissioners, under the Towns Improvement Act. The streets are lighted with gas, and are well maintained.

THE CASTLE. NNISCORTHY CASTLE, although occupied as a dwelling in modern times, must at last be numbered in the category of ruins. It is quadrilateral in form, with engaged round tower at each corner. Some years ago, the £arl of Portsmouth manifested a desire to have it thoroughly •stored, but was not encouraged to carry out his intentions, ^.'ng to a failure to come to terms with the lessee, a Miss ailace, who holds for life. Its yard was recently employed .stormg builder's material, among which there appeared [j "lon5 of the joisting from the floors. In anticipation of the of M* A *e restorat'on should commence, the cabinet factory storvh i ^ac^>ermott» adjoining the grounds, remained a one aboi • nS for many years. It is now two stories. It was 1 Slxteen years ago that the attempt to restore the Castle took P. FiTZPATRICK, WHOLESALE AND FAMILY GROCER- TEA. WINE AND SPIRIT MERCHANT, GEORGE'S STREET and NEW STREET, KftNISCORTHY.

Among its latest occupants were the Royal Irish Constabulary, about the year 1866. Mr. Thomas Kough, J.P., diocesan secretary, had an office in it for some years before his removal to Kilkenny. The Castle gardens, about half an acre, are in possession of Mr. Thomas Wilkinson, sub-sheriff, and bear fruit and vegetables. There is a difference of opinion among authors as to whether the Castle was built by Raymond le Gros, husband of Basilica, or by the de Prendergasts, who were the next owners of Enniscorthy. It was defended with " great guns " against Cromwell, and for a brief period served the uses of a prison during the insurgent occupation in 1798. There is a strong feeling among the Enniscorthians in favour of its restoration, and it certainly would add greatly to the appearance of the town.

THE CATHOLIC CATHEDRAL. j|T a meeting of the parishioners, in March, 1838, it was decided to begin the rebuilding of the Cathedral. A work of such magnitude takes a great many years to complete in every detail. Each generation adds, replaces, and perfects. At present, though symmetrical and evenly decorated, it presents large possibilities in the matter of beautifying. The aisles are formed by two rows of tall granite pillars supporting av v.S> • SimP'y stencilled, a"d corresponding with the roof, which is of dark wood. From the altar rail to the chancel window there is a large space, the arches between it and the a' rl l3e'nS filled with carved stone screens, supported on Polished pillars of native marbles. The floor is set with encaustic tiles, and at each side of the rail is a statue, larger tnan life, of the Virgin and St. Joseph respectively, standing on richly carved pedestals. The high altar is a handsome piece of w°rkmanship, having niches filled with Scripture representations. ' the back a window of stained glass represents the Virgin, surrounded by full-sized figures of saints. There are large windows in both transepts. At the western extremity of each aisle is a carved altar, prettily enclosed and backed by a stained glass window. Near the one in the southern aisle a monument n grey and white marbles, with carved draperies, dove, and In'th torcnes, is in memory of Bishop Ryan of Ferns, 1819. the north aisle are two memorial windows presented by Peter ^oyle Ballinahallin, and John Hore.

Patrick Kelly, Curate of Camolin, a native of Enniscorthy ; Rev. John Busher, Curate of Enniscorthy, 1876 ; Rev. Thomas Breen, 1868 ; Rev. John P. Hore, 1864 ; and Rev. Thomas Warren. Over the last named is astained window in memory of Bishop Murphy, of Ferns, 1856. In the same aisle is a window in memoriam, to Bishop Furlong, of Ferns, 1875. Within the enclosure of the small altar a window commemorates Bishop Keating, of Ferns, 1849. I* 's particularly interesting from its representation of the Bishop presenting to St. Patrick a cathedral in miniature. The out- ward aspect of the building is imposing, and further enhanced by being situated on nearly the highest point of the town. Its tower rises from the intersection of the cross, and has a spire remarkable for architectural elegance. The designs were by Pugin.

ST. MARY'S. (I.C.) jEEN from the top of Vinegar Hill, the Churches of Ennis- corthy are sufficiently far apart for each to retain its distinctive characteristics. St. Mary's Church occupies a commanding position above Castle Hill, but the elevation is much lower than that of the Cathedral. It is a substantial and dignified structure, with a pinnacled tower, and spire of consi- derable height In its yard are many interesting memorials of the past. The interior of the Church has lately been much im- proved, the chancel and space devoted to the pulpit and reading- desk having been increased, and a better position provided for the organ. There is a large seating capacity. The floor is tiled. A handsome casing of glazed tiles is set behind the Communion ,*i above which is a triple window. A brass tablet records the fact that the tiled floor, roof, wall decorations, chancel rail, and chairs, the pulpit and reading-desk, were the gift of Thomas ^awards, of Clonhasten, " who fell asleep, May 19th, 1882." It «as through his munificence that the heating apparatus was supplied, and mainly through his efforts that several houses Chfe r5moved' which formerly occupied the ground between the ^nurch and the street. Three monuments, only, are inside the nurch. One of them, on the eastern wall, is to the memory of foHM15 Caesar Cookman, Monart House, Captain of the Wex- Militia, 1859. It was erected by his widow, and represents croll> depending from a coat of arms, in white marble. On JOHN LAMBERT, WHOLESALE & RETAIL GROCER,

Denis Browne, M.A., , an eloquent preacher, who, for twenty-two years was Rector of Enniscorthy, and greatly beloved by his parishioners. A practical tribute to his piety and worth took shape in the purchase of an organ, the same which once belonged to the Vice-Regal Chapel, Dublin. A portrait of the Dean hangs in the reading-room of the meeting-house of the Young Men's Christian Association, in Church Street. The Association was founded by the late Rev. Edmond Trouton, Curate of the Parish, under his auspices, in 1857.

THE PRESBYTERIAN & METHODIST CHURCHES^ FRIENDS' MEETING HOUSE, AND MISSION CHAPEL. jHE Presbyterian Church is a small but handsome structure of cut stone, with a conical tower, of modest proportions.

JjASTLE BORO is six miles, Irish, to the west of Ennis- corthy. The road to it passes many private residences, all displaying cultivated taste on the part of the oc- cupants. The last mile is a bower of beeches. Very great care has been manifested in training the branches and weeding out everything of an obstructive nature. A broad clearing reveals a "grand gateway" and handsome granite lodge. Free admis- sion is given to visitors, and the drive in the demesne is through ferny woods, and across the Boro, a stream which justifies the term " crystal." Presently an opening in the trees brings into view the mansion, with its noble porch, supported by Corinthian pillars. The main building is 90 feet in width, and has two wings, 55 feet each. Seen from the river, at the back, the effect is very fine, the Corinthian pillars, which support the roof, and a landscape garden of seven great terraces, connected by granite steps, aiding it very much. The garden is really the sight of Castle Boro. It is the result of a lavish expenditure on the part of the father of the present Lord Carew, and contains, among the rest, some splendid marble fountains and stately yews. At the foot of the long line of terraces is the Boro, extended to the proportions of a lake by judicious damning. This abounds in trout, and may be fished from boat or bank. There is a granite pier, and sequestered walks to the right and left. On the op- posite bank is a gently-rising expanse, dotted with ornamental shade trees.

WILTON CASTLE. jJHREE and a-half miles, Irish, to the south-west of Ennis- corthy, is Wilton Castle, the residence of Colonel Harry1 Akock, D.L. It is at the foot of the Hill of Bree ; the style of building. Early Tudor, suiting admirably with its ro- mantic surroundings. 'Not far from the Castle is a beautiful natural lake, whose islands and wooded shores are not the least charming features of the estate. Under the windows runs the Jooro, well stocked with trout, and winding away under rustic bridges, and' besides pleasant walks. A broad, open plaza in 'font of the buildings has a castellated wall.

There is no more charming picture in the county than that presented from the bridge which carries the road from Bree to Enniscorthy across the Boro. A foot-path descends from the gate at Borodale beside the bridge to the brink of the river which, immediately below the span, makes a sudden bend. Though in summer it murmurs pleasantly along its rocky bed, in the spring and winter the waters tear down with such force as to have frequently carried away the guard wall. Another turn reveals a rath-crowned cliff, rising perpendicularly to a con- siderable height at the opposite side. A mysterious pool at the foot has depths in which the country people suppose that great treasures are hidden. The river winds to the left, and, after a short distance, broadens into a lake, where the waters are stored lor the use of the Kilcarbery Mills. Here there is a happy blending of the natural and artificial. An island, aquatic plants, shrubberies, and, in the far distance, wooded hills, produce an exquisite effect.

EDERMINE. WO roads, both most agreeable drives, lead from Ennis- corthy to Edermine, the residence of Sir John Power, Bart. It is well to go by one and return by the other, ihe lower road is deeply shaded with trees for the greater part of the way. On the left, within sight of the town, are the ex- tensive and handsome buildings of the Lunatic Asylum, which possess almost unequalled advantages in situation. Further a ong the picturesque Moatabeg Mill, with big water-wheel and Pleasant shade trees, marks another point for admiration. A snort distance from Edermine is Brownswood Castle, about thv, mi'eS frOm Enn'scorthy. This bit of ruin is favored with jne happiest surroundings. It is in a hollow, a few yards from "e r.lver bank, upon a velvetty turf, with occasional shade, and consists of a single thick wall, with two windows. Edermine is an excellent picture of a comfortable home. Its well-kept grounds are open for inspection by tourists.

Donohoe. A large sign, bearing the well-known trade mark, conspicuously indicates that this parti- cular Star of Enniscorthy is in the ascendant. Further acquain- tance largely improves the good impression made at the outset. Mineral Water manufacture was begun by Mr. Donohoe about seven years ago under exceptionally favourable conditions in regard to water supply and shipping. The water is conveyed by pipe from a spring at the foot of Vinegar Hill. The second advantage is derived from the fact that the premises of the Dublin, Wicklow, and Wexford Railway Company adjoin those of the factory. A large amount is saved in the item of cartage By this fortunate circumstance. The premises controlled by Mr. Donohoe occupy a space of about 200 by 100 feet. A well equipped building, 100 by 50 feet, contains the machinery, which includes the best appliances of modern invention for this parti- cular branch of industry. The floor is flagged, and the lime- ivajshed walls are maintained in snowy whiteness. It would be oancult to find a place showing stronger evidence of the prefer- ence of the proprietor for perfect sanitary arrangements.

KILCARBERY MILLS AND ITS PROPRIETORS. jMONG the walks from Enniscorthy there is none more delightful than that connecting the town with Kilcar- bery Mills. The hill, on which are situated the resi- dences of Mr. Francis Davis, sen., Hollymount, and Mr. Francis Davis, jun., Memfin, affords a view that may be described as extremely beautiful. On the opposite side of the river the tall towers of the Lunatic Asylum rise majestically, the valley of the .Slaney sweeping towards and beyond Enniscorthy. Ferns Castle and the Wicklow Mountains in the distance make a com- bination worthy to inspire poet or painter. At the foot of the hill, on the further side, a graceful chimney shaft indicates the location of the Kilcarbery Mills. In a valley half a mile from Donanore Glen and three-quarters of a mile from the Slaney are the concerns which contribute so largely towards the food supplies of the counties of Wexford, Kilkenny, and Wicklow. The mills have been in existence over one hundred years, and show in the original building some interesting archaeological spe- cimens. One of these consists of the stone arch and jambs of the door said to have served a similar purpose in the old parish church of Kilcarbery. In 1826 the father of Mr. Francis Davis, sen., added a double wing, six stories high, ior flour dressing, and m'i855, by the addition of two stories, the original building was raised to a uniform height. A wheat store, also six stories, was annexed during the same year. The water power secured from the Boro is sufficient to drive thirteen pairs of stones for eight months of the year, and sometimes all the year round. In 1876 this was strengthened by the erection of a compound «ngine of 160 indicated horse-power. The water and steam work in conjunction. An engine, boiler, and screen house, four stones high, and a chimney shaft 120 feet high, as seen in the illustration, were necessitated by the introduction of the auxiliary element, and form an imposing feature of the concerns. An iron breast wheel, 24 feet in diameter and 19 feet 8 inches in breadth, with a 12-foot fall, receives the water from the storage lake. At the time of my visit to Kilcarbery in August, 1884, a very considerable outlay was being made in replacing the old- style machinery by the German, English, and American com- h AT imProvements. The firm of Davis Brothers was founded At vf' Flanc's ^avis, of Enniscorthy, about the year 1820. f>t the death of the founder his sons, Messrs. Francis and •momas, succeeded. Mr. Thomas Davis has retired. He is succeeded by Mr. Francis Davis, jun. SAMUEL DAVIS&SONS,

GROCERY AND PROVISION DEPARTMENTS- MILL PARK ROAD, ENNISCORTHY. 293 MESSRS. SAMUEL DAVIS & SONS. N 1835 there was begun in Enniscorthy a grocery business which has grown to such proportions as to include in its J_ field of operations the capital cities of England and Ireland. The founder was Mr. Francis Davis, and the house occupied was in Castle Street. At first attention was divided between the wholesale and retail branches. Mr. Samuel Davis, son of the founder, succeeded in 1857. In i860 he removed to capacious stores on Mill Park Road. A provision department was added in 1873. A change of style, from Samuel Davis to Samuel Davis & Sons, was made in 1878, and at the same time the retail trade was given up. A new store was built at the opposite side of the way, also in 1878. It is 60 by 25 feet, four stories high, and has an ample cellar, which is used for bacon and sugar. For the convenience of a wholesale tea trade, extending all °rer. Ireland, it was found necessary to have a more central point of distribution. Accordingly, in 1882, premises were taken in "igh Street, Dublin, which have since been used as head- quarters for the tea trade, Enniscorthy continuing to be head- quarters for the wholesale grocery and provision trade. Two years before the Dublin house was opened, an office had been secured in Rood Lane, London. This important step had to be taken in order to enable the firm to buy its tea in the open market, and thus avoid dealers', or, as they are called in Ireland, merchants' profits. The firm thus placed itself on equal terms with the great London tea merchants. Mr. Samuel Davis died in 1884. The firm is at present com- posed of the sons, Mr. Albert S. Davis and Mr. Francis H. Uavis. The former resides in Enniscorthy, and personally conducts the business there. The latter resides in Dublin, wnere, with the active assistance of a skilful managing clerk, Mr. Edmund Burke, he conducts the business. The London jjepartment is managed directly from the Dublin house. The nrm imports, direct from America, green bacon of the quality pest adapted to the Irish market. It is dried and smoked at -tnniscorthy, to suit the popular taste, and has a recognized position in the trade throughout the south-eastern counties, in ex/°r^ County takes a large portion of the provisions prepared " wis manner. A provision circular is issued weekly from ^-nrnscorthy, and an occasional tea circular from Dublin. urmg the last ten years the business of Messrs. Samuel fimif ^ons llas increased tenfold, and the possibilities for "" development are far from being exhausted. FLOUR MILLERS,

WEXFORD BRANCH : PAUL QUAY. JAMES HARPUR, AGENT- 295 FAIRFIELD, ST. JOHN'S, AND MANOR MILLS. | HE firm which owns and works the Fairfield, St. John's and Manor Mills, Enniscorthy, was established in 1858, by Messrs. Samuel and Abraham Grubb Davis. It began its career with the first-mentioned concerns, and had its town office on Mill Park Road. The building of a store 130 feet long, 28 feet wide, and four stories high, opposite the then office, was one of the extensive improvements which followed. The office is now in the new store, adjoining which is the Manor Mill, a building about 60 feet long and six stories high. It has five pairs of stones, driven by a mountain stream, and is devoted to flour manufacture and coarse grindings. i?^e °f the machinery has modern improvements. Fairfield Mills are situated in a picturesque valley, one and a-half miles, Irish, to the west of Enniscorthy. Their driving power is pro- cured from a pond half an acre in extent, which impounds the waters of the river Urrin and a tributary stream. The mills are five stories high, and have a store 150 feet long and three stories high, There are two water-wheels, one abreast and the other nearly overshot. The Fairfield Mills were originally iron works of considerable size. In the next stage of development I 1 jCame one of five distilleries operated in different parts of Ireland by the Jameson family. The buildings were ultimately converted into flour mills, and continued in that way by Messrs. S. & A. G. Davis until 1879, when they were exclu- sively devoted to the grinding of Indian corn. St. John's Mills «n Slt?ated at a distance of half an Irish mile from Enniscorthy, upon the Urrin, which has a tidal connection with the Slaney to , mills of about 150 yards. This is most convenient for nipping purposes by means of 25-ton boats. There is also a 7Specially madye in f ti5 ith the Dublin Wicklow y made in connection with the Dublin, Wicklow, RaiIway- One of the mills, five stories in height, enby an iron breast water-wheel about 18 feet in diameter, is fi m bread.th» and with a four-foot fall. The second mill ve st e °nes in height, and is driven by a 70-horse-power DlovH II was built by the firm in 1863.

George H. and Edward J. Lett. In 1798 they were used for barracks by the City of Cork Militia. About seventy years ago the Mill Park Brewery and Flour Mills were established by the Pounder family, in 1864 Messrs. Stephen and Edward J. Lett pur- chased the interest in both, and began to make improvements of such magnitude as to involve an expenditure of .£8,000. The brewery building was almost entirely taken down and re- erected in such a manner as to admit the introduction of supe- rior brewing appliances. The new building is 107 by 43 ieet, and is three stories high at one end and two at the other, with deep cellar. In the time of Mr. John Pounder the rlour mills were destroyed by fire, and rebuilt by him. The building is 79 by 23 feet and five stories high. Power is supplied by water, which comes from a source at Monart, four miles distant. An iron breast wheel, 32 feet in diameter and 8 feet broad, although erected in 1849, still remains in excellent condition. In ordinary seasons four pairs of stones can be driven in addition to the general machinery. Greatest among the buildings is the malt nouse. It covers 236 by 45 feet of ground, is four stories high, and has a capacious cellar. 1 he newest building is a two-story mineral water factory, 120 y '9 feet. This has a bright red brick front, and is in agree- able contrast to its surroundings. Adjoining it are the offices, i wo years ;ago the mineral water factory was added. It is erved by a three horse-power vertical engine, and bears evi- aence of careful management. The output, including cham- P gne cider and fruit syrups and cordials, goes to nearly every W f rfnd villaSe in the counties of Wexford, Kilkenny, Carlow, "atertord, and Wicklow. The water is secured from an arte- ?lan well on the premises at a depth of 120 feet, 16 feet of which n7,t0 be bored through shingle. ™r- Stephen Lett died in 1865, and Mr. Edward J. Lett ten iJM» r" ^e bus'ness was managed by the executors until "01, when Messrs. George H. and Edward J. Lett, sons of Mr. ene " Lett' entered int° possession. They are young and ^ergetic, and have given ample evidence of ability to carry to P ?e!? an ambitious and enterprising programme. The Mill anH °rewery Mills, Malthouse, Stores, Mineral Water Factory stat are included in and form a considerable part of a Fri uCte belonging to the firm.

JO more enterprising firm is to be found in the County Wexford than that of Messrs. Buttle Brothers. There is a great deal of American go-ahead in their methods, and it only requires a very short visit to the grocery and provi- sion warehouse in Templeshannon to perceive that push, pluck, and energy are favourably regarded by the people of Ennis- corthy and its district. The premises occupied by Messrs. Buttle Brothers cover nearly two acres. They face Temple- shannon, and extend 300 feet to the brink of the Slaney, on the- left bank of which they run for about 400 feet. Upon the bank,, in view of the bridge, is the bacon factory. This is well planned, and has large slaughter and curing houses. At the time of my visit in August, 1884, Messrs. Buttle were contem- plating the introduction of the ice curing system in its best "™ to prepare mild cured bacon for the London market. Hitherto their efforts have been occupied with the rapid devel- opment of the home trade in Irish and American provisions, ine tastes of the people of Wexford and the adjoining counties have favoured the cure of bacon by heavy salting and the Slaney View Factory has been worked upon that plan. A great deal of room is required for the ac- commodation of a business which is divided into so many important departments. The house in which the American Dacon is stored covers a space of 120 feet long and 16 feet wide, oft i°fSe USed for American flour is three stories high.

, Bryers, and Walker, 94, 95,"& 96 Middle Abbey Street, Dublin. 33* FERNS. Population 495 in 1881.

'ODERN Ferns is a well-built, cleanly kept village, on the Dublin, Wicklow, and Wexford. Railway, 69^ miles from Dublin, 7 miles by rail from Enniscorthy, 9 miles from Gorey, and 23 from Wexford. By road from Enniscorthy it - - - is 6 miles, and by road from Wexford 18 miles. It has several good places of business, and a first-rate fg*,r fowl market once a week, on Monday. Twelve fairs >*P«> are held in the year, four old and eight new. Experience has demonstrated that if the number had been increased to six instead of twelve, the success of each would be much greater. When the number was confined to four, the average attendance of sellers and buyers was larger, and there was more spirit m the transactions. Ferns is in the Barony of Scarawalsh. It ascends from the railway station to the top of a hill, from which excellent views of the surrounding country are obtained. These include and Black Stairs to the west, Vinegar Hill to the south, and beautifully wooded lands on every side. The finest prospect is that which is offered from the remains ot the Castle, associated with which are so many stirring incidents of ancient times. Maurice Fitzgerald, first cousin of Strongbowr and warden of Ferns, began its erection in 1176, and the work was completed by his sons. John St. John, first English bisnop- of Ferns, occupied it in 1223. It was the residence of the suc- cessors of St. John until 1312, when, by the connivance of Bishop de Northampton, it fell into the hands of the Scots and Irish, who destroyed it and the town. It was afterwards restored, and held by John Esmond against William Charnell, who had been appointed bishop in his place. Esmonde finally surrendered, and received another bishopric. " Constables of the Castle succeeded the bishops in the government of Ferns. In 1559, Alexander Devereux, last abbot of Dunbrody, and first Pro- testant bishop of Ferns, lived in it; and in 1583, Sir Thomas. Masterson, Knight, a native of Cheshire, received it from Queen Elizabeth, in addition to a considerable tract of land in the district, and the governorship of the northern portion of the eounty. In the reign of James I., English and Scotch planters were introduced into Scarawalsh and the adjoining baronies ot Corey and Ballaghkeen. Sir Charles Coote had charge ot *ems Castle, and blew it up to prevent the native septs irom fcwng possession. They were crowding the settlers in a very uncomfortable manner at the time. The ruins are among the 33* -most picturesque in Ireland. Of the four towersTwhich origin- ally flanked it, one continues in wonderful preservation. This contains a chapel with groined roof, and has long loopholes, which are supposed to have served as embrazures for light artillery. Half the second southern tower, nearly full height, is also standing. It was torn in two from the top to the bottom. About half the connecting wall remains, and in modern times "has served the purposes of a ball-alley. Some smooth flags were set into it for the facilitation of the game, but play was •discontinued in consequence of the erection of a high wall round the grounds. This was done at the expense of the landlord, the late Mr. Richard Donovan, of Ballamore. Mr. Donovan also had a door placed in the space between the wall and the "broken tower, and the key of this is now in the keeping of William': Henders, Pound master. About twenty years ago a portion of the northern wall fell during a thunderstorm, an4 the tenant, Mr. Humphrey Rynhart, now deceased, obtained permission to blast the rest in order to prevent a possible accident of a serious nature. Huge masses of stone and mortar lie upon the floor of the interior. A brass field-piece, nine feet long, found in the Castle, was employed in the defence of Wexford in 1641. The history of Ferns is supposed to have begun with Ferna, son of Caril, King of Decies, who was killed upon its site while engaged in battle with Gallus, son of Norn«. Brandubh, King of Leinster, to mark his conversion by St Edan in 598, aided him in founding a monastery and cathedral at Ferns. The city, which grew to considerable proportions, excited the avarice of the Danes ; and, after repeated attempts, they, in 930, plundered and burned it. The history of the city from that time until the sixteenth century, tells of continued burnings and plunderings. In 1166 it was partly destroyed -during the war provoked by Dermod McMurrough, who had estranged the affections of O'Eouike's wife. He is supposed to Tiave died at Ferns in 1169, one year after his right to the Kingdom of Leinster had been acknowledged. His remains were interred either at Ferns or Baltinglass. The popular beliet is that they repose under a granite block three feet six inches high, which is to be seen in the Cathedral churchyard. Near it is a slab erected to the memory of Matthew Leacy, who died m 1810. It has long been a habit among young men at funerals "to test their reaching powers by encircling " the King's monur ment" with their arms. ,• The Augustinian Monastery, partly destroyed in the time of McMurrough, was rebuilt and endowed by him. The ruins of this now form a narrow passage from the Cathedral grounds to 333 those of Captain Irvine, and are chiefly remarkable for a row oF lancet windows, five in number, at one side, while of those at r the other, only one remains in good preservation. Broken sculptures of various kinds have been carried away to mark graves in the adjoining church-yard, where they are to be seen. * set up, many of them in a most whimsical fashion. In the grounds of Captain Irvine, at the back of the church- yard, is a tower about 75 feet high. The late Mr. Butler Brien,, who was murdered in 1841, had this tower lined with brick, and. a ~?at sunk ^ound it and the ruins of which it is a part. The Cathedral of Ferns is likewise the Protestant parish church. It was rebuilt in 1816, and is in the later English style, with square embattled tower and pinnacles. A striking object. in the interior, beside the pulpit, is the monument to St. Edan, which was found in clearing away the ruins of the ancient edi- nce. Above it is a tablet bearing the inscription : " Under this B1?|I1jment are interred the remains of St. Edan, commonly called St. Moague, the founder of this Cathedral, and first Bishop of Ferns. He discharged the pastoral office with piety and Christian zeal for a space of fifty years." At the foot of the hill, on the road to Gorey, is the well of St. Moague, the waters of which are said to possess medicinal qua- lities. It is covered by a house about fifteen feet high, erected by the Government during the famine of 1847. In that year its position was changed owing to the filling of the road beside it with material cut from the hills. The well was then about eight ieet nearer to the centre of the road, with which it was level, and was covered by masonry four or five feet high. The key- stone of the arch, at present over the well, belonged to one of the aoorway arches of the ancient Cathedral. The well is now on tne property of Messrs. David Bolger & Sons, a purchase of fif- teen acres made in 1877 from the Church Temporalities Commis- sioners. Within sight of the well is the ruin of the ancient Church of St. Peter. It occupies the side of the hill below the rectory, and has in its interior some handsome monuments. ? d ne to the fabric not l0ng ag b h Bd f Wok ° ° The Episcopal Palace of Ferns and estate are now owned by >-aptajn Irvine. The grounds are open to the public, and are used by the villagers. DAYID B0LG1M0E MANUFACTURERS OF

OF ALL KINDS, PATENT SCYTHES, Hay and Machine Knives &c, &c, &c. Milltown Mills, 335 THE MILLTOWN MILLS. JN the left bank of the Bann, near the railway station of Ferns, is situated one of the most interesting of the well-developed industries of the County Wexford. The Bolgers have been residents of Ferns many centuries, and- for generations have been workers in iron and steel, but it was reserved for the present representatives, Messrs. David Bolger and Sons, to make their merits manifest throughout the United Kingdom. At the Dublin and Cork Exhibitions highest prize medals were awarded to them for the general superiority of exhibits, including sickles, scythes, hay knives, reaping and mowing machine knives, billhooks, hoes, patent hooks, chaff, straw, and turnip cutting machine knives. To have obtained a position so exalted in the opinion of eminent judges speaks volumes for the inventive genius and skill of the Milltown firm. More than forty different kinds of spades are required to enable a wholesale spade merchant to do business in all the . The manufacturers of hooks and sickles have to pro- vide even more liberally, and to secure a prominent place in the estimation of those who use them necessitates constant attention and unlimited experiments. This remark applies forcibly to the •case of Messrs. David Bolger and Sons. Their iron works at Milltown have grown to extensive proportions from a modest beginning in the neighbourhood by Mr. Thaddeus Bolger, father of Mr. David' Bolger. During the lifetime of Mr. Thaddeus Bolger sickles had become such a prominent leature of the business as to have obtained recognition for ™e name nearly all over Ireland. It was claimed tnat the Bolger sickle had no equal in temper, quality, and proof. Mr. T. Bolger died in 1862. In 1870 Mr. D. Bolger, recently deceased, bought the interest of the late Mr. Kinch in the rjilltown Mills, and secured thereby splendid water-power. Messrs. David Bolger & Sons continue to keep the mills their original work. A new iron water-wheel and new machinery were added, and the mills now grind for the general public, and make oatmeal and Indian meal for the trade. J-onnected with them are nine acres of land, and of this the lorges alone cover half an acre. There are some twenty fires and three buzz furnaces. A special department is devoted to ornamental and general smithwork. The machinery in the •nerent shops is driven by water. A considerable amount of space is occupied by new buildings, in one of which is a packing room 80 feet by 25 feet Messrs. Bolger & Sons (Thaddeus ernard, John, and Patrick) are in active competition with the non SCf lue and hook makers in the United Kingdom, and by thp 1 m are thev outdone either in style or finish. They are ';; °,n'y scythe makers in Ireland. Four years ago this branch of industry was added. 33*

NEWTOWNBABRY. Population 960 in 1881.

\ OR its size, there is no town in the County Wexford to compare with Newtownbarry. As a business place/its record is first-rate,an d in scenic attractions it stands in the front rank. It is situated on the right bank of the Slaney, bordering the County Carlow, seven miles Irish from Ferns, the nearest railway station, nine miles English from Shillelagh, in the ; ten miles Irish from Enniscorthy and sixteen miles Irish from Gorey. Originally it was •called Bunclody. Clody, in Irish, signifies a mountain torrent, <*nd bun is butt. The town was built at the junction of the Clody and Slaney, and received its name accordingly. The change from Bunclody to Newtownbarry was made when it became the property, in the sixteenth century, of James •Barry, progenitor of the the Barons of Santry. The estate went to John Maxwell, afterwards Lord Farnham, by marriage "Hjith Miss Barry. It reached the Encumbered Estates Court about thirty years ago, and by purchase ultimately passed into possession of the late Mr. Hall-Dare, who at once set to work to develop its resources, and increase the rental of the town. Mount Leinster is about three miles to the south-west. Newtownbarry is very favourably centred from the trade point of view. Lands of superior quality, admirably suited for tillage and dairy-farming, feed its market with their produce ; and the farmers find in its shops and storehouses everything required to render life endurable. This includes the choicest food supplies, and the best materials for male and female attire. A superficial inspection is sufficient to demonstrate to the stranger that the popular taste at Newtownbarry has been cul- tivated far beyond what might be expected from a district having neither railway nor steamboat communication with the outer world. The shop-fronts are of ample height, and are fWm ef,, GENERAL MERCHANT,

In the midst of business cares, the people of Newtownbarry tif *ume for mental and physical culture. There is a society, tne object of which, as set forth in its rules, is " the moral and intellectual improvement of its members." There are also cncket and athletic clubs. The Young Men's Mutual Improve- ment bociety was established about fourteen years ago. Between October and May it provides monthly musical and literary en- tertainments at the Court House. The annual subscription of members is two shillings. More than twenty years ago the c™c«* c'"b was established. The athletic club is not yet a year «ia, but gives promise of long life. The Slaney affords excellent sport for anglers, but access to its banks with rod and line is not to be had without a permit. White and yellow trout are iound in the Clody. Newtownbarry only lacks railway facilities and a few factories to ensure the increase of population necessary for its inclusion under the Towns Improvement Act.

THE CHURCH OF IRELAND. jHE Protestant parish church stands on a height, which rises from the head of the Main Street. Its grounds are in good order, all the monuments and tombs being fair •and regular, instead of in the melancholy disorder so often characteristic of small cemeteries. The inside of the church fulfils the expectations excited by the outside and surroundings. •Though small, it is in excellent taste. The chancel window is in memory of R. W. Hall-Dare, 1866, and Francis A. C. Hall-Dare, I°62, and consists of three lancets, headed by trefoils and stone arabesques. The chancel floor is tiled. Within the communion rail are two handsome chairs, which, with the carved reading- desk, are a great addition to the appointments. These articles were made for their present use by the Rector, Venerable Arch- deacon Archdall. A large rosette window is over the main •entrance, erected by his friends, as a mark of esteem, to the memory of R. W. Hall-Dare. Across the gable of the church, on the outside, are the words, " These stones shall be for a memorial," and the wall at this end is of square granite blocks, each one handsomely cut, a costly and elegant monument to Mr. Hall-Dare. The rosette window-traceries are also of cut- granite, and the doorway is beautiful in design. The absence of an organ is noticeable where the deficiencies are so tew.

SHORT and pleasantly shaded walk from the bridge on the left bank of the river leads to the Catholic place of worship and convent. The church-yard is well kept, and has many monuments. The interior of the church is paved with Portland blocks. The altar is of neutral tints, and is lighted by a stained-glass window on the right. An oil-painting of the Crucifixion is at the back. The ceiling is decorated in different medallions. From one of them depends a silver lamp, unusually rich in workmanship. A tablet in white marble commemorates Rev. John Doran, C.C., of Newtownbarry. At the left of the altar is a small gallery used by the Sisters of the adjoining con- vent, who have lately been provided with a pretty little chapel on the same side. Their Order is that of the Faithful Com- panions of Jesus, and has been established in Newtownbarry about twenty-five years. Under their charge are boarding and National schools. Their parlours overlook a series of gardens, tastefully adorned, and made interesting by a number of little grottos to SS. Bridget, Patrick, Our Lady of Lourdes, the last name portraying Bernadette, the well, and surrounding rocks. Statues of the Angel Gabriel, the Virgin and St. Joseph, stand opposite the house.

THE TOWN WALKS. j]EWTOWNBARRY has many beautiful walks, but the one which is most favoured by the people is that leading off the Market Square over the bridge. Steep steps connect the public road with the river-path. Following- this a few hundred feet a scene of rare loveliness is presented. Rich pastures extend far into the distance, skirted by a hill, which rises precipitously, a mass of foliage marked with every variety of color, and crowned by spire-like firs. On the left is the Slaney, deep and black in its shadows, silver-blue where it reflects the skies, its whispering* interrupted by the 'occasional leaping of salmon. Looking back to the road, the arches of the bridge, and their clear shadows, form circles which frame in charming bits of landscape. The residence of the Hall-Dare family is al- most shut out from view by trees. It is a mansion of extensive proportions, in the Italian "style of architecture. At the end of the long stretch of pasture a stile is crossed, and the paths diverge. One goes down to a favourite bathing place of the boys, the other into the deep shades of the trees on the hill.

GOEEY. Population—2,450 in 1881. ^HE town of Gorey occupies the side of a gently rising hill, three miles from the sea at Courtown Harbour. It is on the Dublin, Wicklou- and Wex- ford Railway, 59^ miles from Dublin, and 331 from the Borough of Wexford. The County Wicklow borders the barony of Gorey, and its important town of is one of its markets. In the vicinity of (rorey there is a considerable amount of first-rate land, which is employed for tillage and pasture. A farming hors society> strongly interested in improving the breeds of , •es ano- cattle, has been in existence for many years, and, «naer the presidency of Lord Courtown, continues to flourish. xne trade of Gorey depends for success upon the agricultural operations of the district. Two coach factories, a grist mill, and a saw mill provide a certain amount of employment for the There are *T f idle mills that would be excellently well nm? t woollen manufacturing on a large scale. It is a pity • to have them occupied by 500 or 600 operatives, for the town s very well situated for such an enterprise, and could command , Se supply of wool for mixing purposes.

He obtained a Charter for Gorey under the name of Nevvborough. Provision was made in this for Parliamentary representation, and for a corporation, composed of a sovereign, burgesses, and free commons. A second Charter was granted by James II., but never went into effect. The inhabitants did not take kindly to the name chosen for the town by Bishop Earn, and his descendants evidently did not try to popularize it. In 1641 the palace he had built was burned by the Parliamentarians. Dur- ing the Rebellion of 1798 Ramsfort and Clonatin, residences of the Rams, were destroyed. It is supposed that St. Edan had a cell near the latter place, and that Clonatin was originally called Cluain-Edan. At the time of the Union, Gorey was disfranchised, the then Stephen Ram receiving £15,000 as a solatium. It is at present governed by Commissioners under the Towns Improve- ment Act. A good general market is held in the Main Street, weekly, on Saturday, and a fair once a month. Good trout-fishing is found in the Owen-a-varra and Bann,. both within a distance of two miles, Irish. In the Royal Irish Academy there is on exhibition a gold torque, found by a farmer near Gorey, and sold to Mr. Donegan, of Dame Street, Dublin, from whom it was purchased by the Academy in August, 1863. It was broken in five pieces, without doubt, in order to make sure that it was all genuine. The por- tions untouched are in perfect condition, and bear testimony to the superior skill of the ancient Irish workers in the precious metals. In this connection I have pleasure in acknowledging the courtesy of Major M'Eniry, Curator of the Royal Irish Academy.

THE PARK—RAMSFORT. flEXT in interest to the town itself is the Fort, from which adverse circumstances drove the last of the Rams about fourteen years ago. It is situated in a demesne, the entrance to which is within a few hundred yards of th» Main Street. The buildings are chiefly remarkable for the expendi- ture of money which Mr. Ram made upon them. Indeed, it is said that the debts which the amount realized by the sale of his estates did not satisfy, were largely due to the more than princely style of his dealings with architects. The purchaser of Rams- fort and the Gorey estate was the late Mr. William M. Kirk, and one of his first acts was to make a change of name to " The Park." In the day of Mr. Ram free admission was given to all parts of the demesne, and the same rule is continued by the Kirk family, with this exception, that the pleasure-gardens are ID'S (Late FitzshnorCs) Commercial and Family Hotel, GOREY.

Established over half a century ago, this Hotel—known as the Ram's Arms—under the management of various proprietors, has continued to •enjoy uninterruptedly the patronge of the Gentry, Clergy of various denominations, and Commercial Gentlemen. The Hotel is situated at the head of the Main Street of the town, and commands a beautiful view of Tara Hill and the surrounding country down to the coast. Everything in the house is maintained in the best order, and the cooking is, in every respect, first-rate. The accommodation includes Coffee Room, Commercial Room, Stock Room, Ladies' Sitting Room, and a Dining Room capable of seating one hundred guests. Dinners provided for Excursion Parties, Clubs, &c. Wines and Liquors of the purest and best quality constantly kept in cellar. POSTING ESTABLISHMENT. Connected with the Hotel there is a general Posting Establishment— one of the best in the County Wexford. Carriages, open and closed, Omnibus, Waggonettes, Cars, &c. lg^* Complete arrangements for Undertaking in all its branches. LIVERY STABLES. Gentlemen putting up at KIDD'S HOTEL during the Hunting Season ensure safe and comfortable stabling for their horses, and rooms for servants. SPECIAL SUMMER SERVICE- (BEGINNING JUNE 20th.) A large Waggonette leaves the Hotel twice a day—at 11 a.m. and 4 p.m.—for Courtown Harbour, returning at 1 p.m. and 6.15 p.m- l^° The rates of charge for Hotel posting and livery, &c, are moderate. 3&S open only on Thursdays. There is much to interest the visitor without the gardens. The demesne abounds in trees of gigantic height. Among them are gross enough to yield twenty- four-inch planks. The trunk of one oak is not more than three feet high. Huge branches rise from it, each being a tree in itself. Near the house are some splendid horse-chestnuts.

THE CHURCH OF IRELAND. |EIVING into Gorey from any direction, the lofty and handsome church on the hill at once attracts the atten- tion of the stranger. The tower, a fine piece of archi- tecture in itself, is a campanile, combining delicacy and simple solidity. Much lightness is imparted by varied windows. Five arched openings at each side of the top let the light through the structure. Below them are three large windows, and lower, three more of lesser size. A small tower rises at the side of the square one, octagonal in shape for much of its height, then circular, and surmounted by a sharp conical peak. The church is built of irregular stones, with many buttresses, whose corners are of cut granite. Its form is Gothic and to the south-west are two gables with large windows and trefoil lights in the points of the roof. The north-east gable has a Catherine-wheel window, with handsome stone traceries. The north-western gable contains the chancel, the vestry being in a small addition. The porch is under the tower, and from it a winding staircase ascends the smaller tower. The interior of the church is simple and very spacious. A single row of Gothic arches and white granite pillars supports the junction of the two roofs, which are of dark wood, with pendant posts. Three clear glass lancet windows, set with coloured glass, light the chancel. A lectern of carved wood, in natural colour, is the most elabo- rate object to be seen. In the gable wings, which form a sort of transept, the large circular windows set with coloured glass, nave a fine effect. The floor is of stone blocks, and at the end of the aisle, immediately leading from the chancel, a rich window of fivelancet s is inscribed," To the glory of God, and in memory of James Thomas.fourth Earl of Courtovvn, died 1858." The window was the gift of his tenants, friends, and neighbours, and bears family arms and many arabesque devices of great beauty. The transept on the left of the pulpit has a gallery across it ; the organ, a handsome and well-toned instrument, being opposite. Inside the chancel is a monument to Richard Boxwell, M.B., assistant-surgeon to the East India Company, who served in India seven years, and spent the last six years of his life as AND

THE CATHOLIC CHURCH. j|HIS church is a fine specimen of Pugin's architecture, and is in the Norman-Gothic style—simple, but digni- fied in outline. It is built of irregular stone, with cut granite corners, and has a massive appearance. The tower rises from the junction of the cross,which is the form of the edifice, and . is sturdy and battlemented. There is a small round staircase tower at the corner. A round bell tower, with high peak, is at the corner of the western transept. Over the doorway are the Esmonde arms, cut in stone, and the date of the building—1859. A stone cross, about twenty-five feet high, stands in the front yard. It was erected by Sir Thomas Esmonde, i860, and is carved in the ancient Celtic style, in three granite blocks. The two lower bear the figures of saints, eight in number ; and the upper one is in the form of an ancient cross, on which is the Crucified Saviour. The interior of the church is imposing. No attempt at deco- ration has been made beyond the stencilling over the arches, and upon the wooden beams and ceiling. The nave is wider than is usual in buildings of a like proportion, and is floored with encaustic tiles. Three arched windows are over the door, and when these, with the aisle and transept windows, have been filled with stained glass, the general tone will be greatly improved. Three corresponding windows in the sanctuary were executed at Tours, and represent St. Patrick, St. James the Greater, and St. Michael, to whom the church and convent are dedicated, the parish being called Kilmichaelogue, signifying '' Church of our dear St. Michael." The pulpit is worthy of close inspection, being panelled with oak carving of great antiquity, procured by Sir Thomas Esmonde, the church's benefactor, during his Continental wanderings. The bronze baptismal font and cross behind the altar, were the gifts of Mr. Stephen Ram. The altar itself is of white and delicately-tinted marbles. It was the gift of Sir Thomas Esmonde, and rests on a tesselated pavement of black and white marbles. In the south transept is the organ loft and Altar of the Sacred Heart, presented by the community of the Loretto Convent, Gorey; a statue of St. Michael, presented by Michael Joseph Redmond ; and a monu- ment to Rev. Bartholomew Esmonde, of carved stone and polished white marble. At the end of the north transept is a fkildef£

The remains lie beneath the Apse, the place marked by an iron cross. A monument to Sir Thomas Esmonde, and his first wife, Dame Mary Esmonde, is lacing the Altar of the Virgin. It was erected by Mrs. Margaret Sotners, first Abbess of Gorey, 1855, according to the last wishes of her brother.

THE LORETTO CONVENT. jHE Loretto Convent is connected with the Catholic church by a long passage or cloister, which enables the nuns to worship there in a special place behind the sanc- tuary, free from observation. The convent is called the Insti- tute of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and the order was founded in Germany in the seventeenth century. There are twenty-five nuns occupied in teaching, and the school has three divisions— the higher being the boarding school, with fifty pupils, for young ladies ; the day school, forty to fifty pupils ; and national school, 175 to 200. A new building at the back of the convent is devoted to the young ladies' school and dormitories. The school-room is sixty feet long, divided by pillars and a large arch at the end. In one of the convent parlours hangs a por- trait of Sir Thomas Esmonde, Bart., and the windows look upon the garden, in the centre of which is a large statue of the Virgin and Child. The convent chapel is tastefully decorated, the apse being sky-blue and gold, the whole, including the altar, receiving a tint from a coloured window to the left.

MESSRS. BEDDY BROTHERS. jlOR nearly a century Gorey has been famous for coach building. By the efforts of the Bates family the supe- riority of its work in this line has been made manifest in various parts of the world. By the employment only of the best materials and the best workmen has this eminence been secured. In the United States there is nothing commoner than the trans- planting of foremost workmen from large factories to the head of factories of their own. In Ireland many causes combine to prevent natural and praiseworthy development of this nature. Prominent among these are lack of capital and self-reliance. In Gorey there is an example of what may be accomplished by self- reliance with a small amount of capital. In 1879 Messrs. Robert and David Beddy, after ample experience as boys and men in the Bates factory, began to work on their own account in premises near the railway station.

In 1882 the firm had secured such a foothold as to warrant a test of its abilities in competition with the greatest coach builders in Ireland at the Dublin Exhibition, and the result justified the ambitious desire to excel. The judges awarded a certificate of merit. An " Irish gadabout," designed by Mr. Robert Beddy, was the exhibit, and it speedily found a purchaser. Since then the business has gone on increasing, until it has reached a point to justify the use of the word extensive in describing it. Before the end of 1882, it had a show-room capable of holding sixteen two-wheel vehicles, and a harness-manufacturing department. In 1884, arrangements were made for greater extension, by securing a lease, for 999 years, of building ground attached to the factory, with a frontage of 50 feet, on New Boad. Mr. Eobert Beddy, who now controls all the interests of the firm of Beddy Brothers, takes an honest pride in mentioning the fact that he was foreman of the Bates' Factory nine months before the completion of his term of apprenticeship. This special mark of distinction was conferred upon him by the late Mr. Joseph Bates. It was in recognition of services rendered in constructing a croydon for the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, the then Marquis, and now Duke, of Abercorn. Mr. Beddy was twice foreman of the Bates' Factory, and worked in Dublin sufficiently long to dis- cover that the Gorey methods are equal to any in the United Kingdom. In the course ot their short career, Messrs. Beddy Brothers have sent vehicles to most of the Irish counties, and *o England. They shipped a jaunting-car to Melbourne, a four- wheeled dog-cart to the Argentine Republic and a Lome cart to Hong Kong.

BALLYCANEW. | VILLAGE, which, in 1881, had apopulation of 233. It is five miles, English, south of Gorey, in the barony of Ballaghkeen, and is situated on the side of a hill sloping to the Owen-a-varra River. The lands of the surrounding country are used for pasture and tillage, but are better for the former. A small tannery and a grist mill help to provide occu- pation for the people. The houses are, for the greater part, .slated and in good condition. A fowl market is held weekly, on Wednesday, and five fairs during the year. Boley Hill is the highest point of elevation. Many years ago, during an excava- tion in a Danish fort near Ballycanew, incinerated human remains were found in clay urns. Rev.Wra. J. Gerrard, Rector (I.C.) Black, Henry, Garrynew Rev. T.

CASTLEBRIDGE. [ASTLEBRIDGE is in the barony of Shelraaliere East, three miles, English, to the north of Wexford, on the road to Gorey. Wexford is its nearest railway station. The inhabitants, about 400, for the greater part, are farm laborers. Large malt-houses give considerable employment. A market for grain is held every day in the season. A long and broad street, of thrifty appearance, is the main thoroughfare. There is good shelter for the houses lying in the hollow. A number of interesting ruins are in the neighbourhood, including Ballytramont Castle, Artramont Castle, Artramont Church-yard, Ardcolm ruined Church, and Ardcavan ruined Church. The Garrylough River joins the Sow below the village. There is good fishing, and excellent snipe-shooting- on the Salt Marsh, of over 2,000 acres. Edenvale is within a short distance.

COOLGREANY. » j|N 1881 the population of Coolgreany was 176. It is now supposed to be over 200. The situation of the village is commanding, and the lands of the district are good for pasture and tillage. Mr. G. F. Brooke, of Celbridge, , is the landlord. The houses are slated and in good repair. Fairs are held on the third Monday of each month. Gorey is six miles, English, to the south. Arklow, County Wicklow, four miles to the north-east, is the nearest railway station and market.

COURTOWN HARBOUR. jNE of the most popular of the drives from Gorey is that which has its terminus at Courtown Harbour. The - distance is three miles, and the direction tp the south- east. On the way are passed Marlfield, the residence of Viscount Stopford; Mrs. Hamilton, The Cottage, and the Owen-a-varra, or Owenavorragh River. The bridge which 388 carries the road over this affords a charming view of the valley, including in the distance a pretty cottage belonging to Captain Richards, of Ardamine. Taking the road by way of River Chapel, a village also by trie sea, to the south of, and almost adjoining, Courtown, a mile or so of round is amply compensated for. First, there is seen to the left a row of neat workmen's cottages belonging to Lord Courtown. Then, the new Catholic Church of Eiver Chapel, in the Gothic style, and, at the opposite side of a steep hill, the Protestant* Church of Ardamine (I.C.) The road which connects the two .villages has, on both sides, several handsome villas. It leads to a public avenue, running from Courtown Harbour through Lord Courtown's demesne. This skirts the sea, and winds frequently. At a point nearly fronting Courtown House there is a tennis court, sheltered on every side by sand hills. The Owenavorragh Eiver, teeming with salmon and trout, flows beside the avenue. Courtown House is a substantial mansion, and, although within sight of the ocean, is surrounded with plantations, in which are some splendid forest trees. Courtown Harbour some years ago promised to become valuable as the seaport of Gorey, but its harbour, although built at a great expense, is little better than a sand-trap. Vessels with cargoes of even modest proportions are obliged to anchor outside and unload into lighters. Fishing- boats, of which there are many, frequently have to make off to more hospitable ports to escape wreck. As a bathing-place, Courtown has few superiors. There is an excellent strand, miles in length. The population of village and district, com- posed for the most part of fishermen, was 348 in 1881 ; that of River Chapel district, at the same time, was 264.

|1E usually refrain from alluding to the numerous Prizes won by Crops grown on our Manures, but we cannot overlook the remarkable success attending results in connection with The Green Crop Exhibits at the Dairy Show of the Royal Dublin Society, Heli at Salts Bridge, Dublin, on October 24th, 25th, and 261/1, ISSJ (Open to all Ireland), at which Specimens of Green and White Crops grown on CHARLES NORRINGTON & Co.'s MANURES secured 12 First Prizes and 6 Second Prizes, including both 1st and 2nd Prizes " For the best Collection of Farm Produce grown by Exhibitor," which is a greater test than for any one class of production. We have ahv.iys held aloof from entering our Manures at Exhibitions for the purpose of sounding their praises through the medium of Medals, Certificates, &c, as it must appear to any person of ordinary capacity that these empty honours won by Manures " got up " for exhibition are utterly void of merit and only calculated to mislead. We also desire to call attention to the All-Ireland Great Green Crop Competition, competed for in twenty-three Counties :— 1st Prize (Messrs. W. & H. M. Goulding's £50 Cup), crop grown on CHARLES NORRINGTON & Co.'s Manures. 2nd Prize, crop grown on mixed Manures, and unclaimed by any Manufacturer. 3rd Prize, crop grown on CHARLES NORRINGTON & Co.'s Manures. All these awards are given to Crops grown on our Manures, and not to the Manures themselves. Charles Norrington & Co.'s Manures can be obtained from their Agents throughout Ireland- I.
