Excerpt: ... to the extreme of want, idleness and misery, it is evident that no description can be given, which would be generally applicable: there are circumstances, however, which operate in some measure as influencing causes to these cfiects, and of which the notice may not be useless. The inhabitants of the parish are divided into two Scplcln and races of men, as totally distinct as iftliey belonged to l, mh' difierent countries and regions. These (in order that we may avoid the invidious terms of Protestant and Roman Catholic, which indeed have little to say to the matter, ) may be distinguished by the usual names of Scotch and Irish, the former including the descendants of all the Scotch and English colonists, who have emigrated hither since the time of James I. and the latter comprehending the native and original inhabitants of the country. Than these, no two classes of men can be more distinct: _ the Scotch are remarkable for their comfortable houses and appearance, regular conduct, prudence and perseverance in business, and their being almost entirely manufacturers: the Irish, on the other hand, are more negligent in their habitations, less regular and guarded in their conduct, and have a; total indisposition to manufacture: both are industrious, but the industry of the Scotch is steady, patient and directed with great foresight; while that of the Irish is rash, adventurous and variable: both are extremely frugal and simple in their ordinary food, but the advantage arising from this, is often lost to the Irish, by their extravagance at fairs, wakes and merry-makings, an indiscretion of which the Scotch are seldom guilty.

Excerpt: ... narrow neck of land, known by the name of the Deer This gentleman rode round Lough Neagh in the year 1804, for a considerable wager, which he performed in less than five hours, being a circuit of 80 miles, 6 5 fur-longs, English measure. park-, is a beautiful sheet of water, of an oval form, Lough Beg. called Loughbeg, or the Little lake. This body of water covers 625 acres of land; and is stored with pike, bream, trout, perch, roach, eels, and a variety of wild fowl. An ingenious attempt to drain it was made about the year 174-0, by Arthur Dobbs, Esqfi' then agent to Lord Conway. For this purpose he erected a windmill at the place where the isthmus between the lakes is narrowest; which acting upon buckets, threw the water into the other lake. In this way the lake was emptied; but the water returning again, either through springs, or as some alledge, by a subterraneous communication with Lough Neagh, the scheme, after various experiments, was abandoned. In a sequestered spot in this lake, called Sally Island, Sally tradition relates that the pious and learned Jeremiah I Taylor, who was chaplain to Charles I. and Bishop of Down and Connor, in the year 1661, frequently composed his admired works; probably, among others, his celebrated " Ductor Dubitantium," the preface of which is dated from his study in Portmore, in Killultagh, on the banks of Lough-beg. ' There are two rivers of considerable magnitude, be-Riverslonging to the union; namely, Crumlin River, which, rising at the Black Mountain, discharges itself into Lough Neagh; and Glenavy River, rising in the mountains of Ballymuckilward, and discharging itself also This gentleman was the author of an excellent pamphlet on the trade of Ireland, and of another on the...
