If for the purpose of travelling, gentlemen will consider their own convenience and route, the work being printed purposely in separate counties and it is recommended to the observant Tourist to have that portion of the book he takes with him, interleaved. If bound in Two volumes, the division of the southern and northern counties of England, &c. as published, is recommended; or the Intro- duction and Appendix with the Index, could form one volume ; the southern counties, another; and the northern, with Wales and Scot- land, could form a third volume. If for the library, it may be better that the English Counties should be arranged alphabetically. Wales and Scotland to follow, and bound jn one volume. %* The list of Watering Places in the Southern Counties is to be placed at the end of the first volume. The list of Watering Places in the Northern Counties, for Wales, and for Scotland, is immediately to precede Wales in the second vo- I":.!f ; and follH-.v'rg; the additional page forYorkshire, -,vith which it ii CHESHIRE, OR THE COUNTY PALATINE OF CHESTER, Is bounded on the n. by Lancashire and Yorkshire ; e. by Staffordshire and Derbyshire ; on the s. by Shropshire and part of Flintshire; on the w. by Flintshire and the river Dee; and on the n.w. by the Irish Sea: its form is nearly oval, having two projecting points e. and w. from its n. side. From its extending points it is about 60 miles ; in other parts about 40 long, and 30 broad ; circumference 1 1 2, and has 1017 square miles. From the earliest records this district had peculiar privileges and a distinct government. The hills and rocks of this county are high and barren, but the greater portion of the surface is a level tract. The air, though often moist and damp, is mild and temperate. The river Dee was much venerated by the ancient inhabitants, besides which there are several rivers and lakes, with con- venient inland navigation. The prominent natural pro- ductions of the county are fossil salt/and cheese. Its ma- nufactures, cotton, muslin, silk, ribbons, leather, &c. Chester. Old bridge (1279). Remains of the old Cas- tle.

Its greatest length is nearly 80 miles ; but its mean length about 60 miles ; breadth 35, and circumference 218; and has 1497 square miles. The climate of this county is various, arising from the peculiarly mountainous face of the coun- try; the higher grounds cold and piercing, while the lower are mild and temperate : upon the whole this county is very healthy. The scenery arising from its lakes is extensive rfnd magnificent, and the peculiarity of effect must ever render it picturesque and interesting ; otherwise the scene- ry is but bleak and naked, as the woodlands are but few. The rivers and canals are unimportant. The mineralogical productions of the county are numerous and important : the produce, black-lead, coal, iron, &c. Manufactures, cot- ton, coarse cloths, and linen, glass bottles, &c. Penrith. Fine ruins of a Castle. In the Ch.-yard is a singular monument, called the G ant's Grave : near the above is another called the Giant's Thumb. A little n. of Penrith is a square stone building called the Beacon, com- manding beautiful prospects. A short distance from Pen- rith is Arthur's Round Table, a curious entrenchment. A little to the n. of this, on the summit of a small hill, is May- borough, a vast circular dike of loose stones, with an up- right stone in the centre ten feet hjgh. Almost opposite to Mayborough, on the Cumberland side of the Emmot, is a prodigious cairn or tumulus. 4 m. s.e. of Penrith are the Giants Caves, in a romantic situation, p.

Graystock Castle, a scat of the Duke of Norfolk : upon the river are seve- ral CUMBERLAND jal artificial cascades: the plantations arc extensive, with many ornamental buildings. The interior of the Castle is decorated with a choice collection of paintings. At Mo- therby, in this parish, a Druidical circle called Stone Car- ron or Redstone Camp. h. Hutton, 5 m. n. from Penrith. Hutton Hall, a hand- some scat of Sir F. Vane, bart. On Hutton Common are the remains of a fortification called Collinson Castle. 2 m. from Hutton Hall is the Roman station of Old Penrith, h. Kirkoswald, 8 m. n.e. from Penrith. Near the town are the ruins of an old Castle ; the Ch. and belfry are de- tached buildings. 2 m. n.w. from Kirkoswald is Nunnery, the beautiful and romantic seat of R. Bamber, esq. The grounds are laid out with great taste, containing caves, ca- taracts, and all the rudeness of nature little assisted by art. A small distance from the mansion, in a field called Cross Close, is a pillar inscribed Sanctuarium in Saxon and Roman characters, b.e. Great Salkeld, 3 m. s.w. of Kirkoswald. A little di- stance from Force Mill Bridge is a romantic cascade. The form and construction of the Ch. tower are singular. At a place called tiie Dyke are vestiges of an encampment : near it is a circular pool of water. About a quarter of a mile further are considerable remains of a fortified station, called Aikton Castle ; and near it a tumulus of stones called a Raise. Near the adjoining village of Little Salkeld is the famous Druidical circle called Long Meg and her Daugh- ters, consisting of GJ stones near ten feet high : this is one of the most extensive Druidical circles in the kingdom. b.e. CuMREW,6m. N.by e. of Kirkoswald. Upon the summit of Cumrew-fells is a prodigious Cairn called Cardumeth,* and anothei about 300 yards from the Ch. Near are like-' wise some considerable ruins, d.e. High Hksket, 9 m. n. of Penrith. Near is Nuns Close, Tarn Wadling a remarkable lake, and the ruins of Castle Hewin upon the n.e. side of the lake. Also Armathwaite Castle and Cascade. Near Armathwaite bridge are beau- tiful walks along the summit of the cliffs, b.e. Sowekby, 11 m. n.w. of Penrith. On a lofty eminence (ailed Castle Hill are the remains of an old fortress : in this parish are three ancient works, called Castlesteeds, White- stones, CUMBERLAND. stones, and Stone Raise. 3 m. n. of Sowerby are the ruins of Highhead Castle, and near them a circular hill. b.e. Aldstone, 19 m. k. from Penrith. The lead-mines in the vicinity are very numerous ; this is the only place Where satin spar has been found. On Gildersdale Fell is a cavity called Tutman-hole, and likewise a pool covered with a slime used for painting yellow. H. 3 m. N. from Ald- stone a; e Whitley Castle earthworks, where several antiqui- ties have been discovered, n.d.e. From Aldstone return to Penrith, and begin the tour to the Lakes. LAKES. Mr. Housem recommends to those who arrive at Kendal or Penrith, particularly the latter, to take the Lakes in the following succession : Hawswater, Ulswater, Derwentwater, Basenthwaite-water, Buttermere-water, Crummock-water, Loweswater, Ennerdale-water, and Waste-water; then return to Keswick, and from thence pro- ceed toLeathes-water, Grassmere-water, Rydal-water, Win- dermere-water, Esthwaite-water, and Coniston-water ; and from thence to see the curiosities at Furness. I shall mention the Lakes in the above order (which can be traced on the Map opposite), and what is worthy of no- tice near them. Hawswater. Those who are fond of botanizing will prefer the horse road [the carriage road from Kendal is by Shapl from Kendal to Hawswater, through Long-Sleddale 16 miles, where a variety of curious plants may be found; besides seeing many cataracts tumble over the precipices in various places. Hawswater is in Westmoreland, but so connected with the tour of the Lakes that I shall begin with it, as recommended by Mr. Housem. It is situate about 3 m. s. of Bampton and 4 m. w. of Shap : many cascades and much beautiful scenery are met with in the ride round it, particularly on the south side, where is Wellow Crag a huge naked rock, and Thwaite Force a noble cataract. Re- turn to Penritn by Rampton and Lowther ; at the latter see the carpet manufactory, h. Ulswater, 5q, s.w. from Penrith. The Sun Inn at Pooley will afibid the tourist a good boat, guide, and other accommodations : the guide will point out the most proper situations for viewing the Lake, which by many is thought superior to any of the others. L pon the western side is Gov barrow Park, a seat of the Duke of Norfolk : in the grouiu CUMBERLAND. see Lyulph's Tower, and a fine cascade a little distant from it. See Maiden Castle Camp, called Caer Thanock. Derwent-water (at Keswick), or Keswick Lake, i.sclose to the town of Keswick. Near the further end see Lodore waterfall, Castle Crag, and the Bowder stone. A walk up Borrowdale and to the top of Skiddaw mountain must not be omitted. In a field near the Lake is a spot which commands five beautiful views. At Keswick are two mu- seums of minerals, plants, &c. Hutton the proprietor of one of them is a botanist and guide; and Crossthwaite the owner of the other museum is also a guide, lg m. from Kes- wick is a Druidical circle, in a field called Castle Rigg. A few miles also from Keswick are those deceiving rocks called the Castle Rocks of St. John. h. Basenthwaite Lake, 3 m. n. from Keswick. This lake is about four miles long, and in some parts one mile wide : the best general view is from Broadness, a round green hill behind the farm-house, h . Buttermere is about 1| m. long and half a mile in breadth. Near is Gatesgarth Dale, a tremendous scene ; and one mile and a half w. is Scale Force, a remarkable waterfall, b.e. Crummock-water. This lake is about four miles long and half a mile wide. A view of the whole may be taken in from the side of Buttermere-Hawse Hill. h. Lowes-water. A beautiful lake, about one mile long and a quarter of a mile broad; seen to the most advantage from a station through a gate that leads to the common, h. Ennerdale-water. This lake is guarded on every side except the west by wild and craggy heights. Those who have leisure and a taste for variety of mountain, syl- van, and pastoral scenes, will not be disappointed in a ride to Ennerdale. h. Waste-water. This lake, three miles in length and three quarters of a mile in breadth, is difficult of access, except on the side of Egreniont. The scenery is very diffe- rent from the other lakes. Lkathes-water, or Thirlmere. A narrow piece of water about three miles in length, skirting the base of Hel- vellyn mountain. Many cascades are seen falling from a great height, but the streams are small. 2 m. above this lake and nine miles from Keswick is Dun-mail-raise Stones, CUMBERLAND. an alpine pass where is a large cairn or heap of stones, said to have been placed there to perpetuate the memory of the last king of Cumberland, h. Grassmere. The favourite spot of Mr. Gray the poet, who was delighted with the first view of this small but handsome lake. h. Towards the southern end is Rvdal-water a smaller lake than the preceding, and inferior in point of beauty. At Rydal Hall, the seat of Sir Michael le Fleming, are two cascades worthy of notice : one a little distant from the house in a glen; this is a con- siderable stream tumbling from a great height; the other a small waterfall seen through the window of a summer- house, which gives it a beautiful effect. Ascend Rydal- Head, a mountain behind the Hall, for a fine view of the Lakes, h. Ambleside. Between the town and the head of Winan- dermere are the vestiges of a Roman slation. By the road to Bowness the fine plantations and elegant seat of the learned Bishop of Landaff. Lowood Inn is the best situ- ation for examining the beauties of Windermere Lake. At Lowood Inn are boats for the tourist to visit the islands : the principal or Curwen's Island is opposite the inn ; a cannon is also kept to surprise the curious with the astonishing echoes. This lake I thought superior to any of the lakes in England, but not equal to Loch Lomond in Scotland. Esthwaite-water upon the west side of, and not far from, Windermere is about 2 m. in length and half a m. in breadth, in many places beautifully fringed with trees. Coniston-lake. After passing through Hawkshead (near which are the remains of the Abbot of Furness s house) you come to Coniston Lake, six miles in length and three quarters of a mile broad : a fine cataract is seen fall- ing from the mountain upon the opposite side of the lake, h . Besides the above Lakes there are several smaller ones. Over-water, between Binsey and Colbeck-fells. Burn Moor Tarn, at the head of Mitterdale. Devock-water, 5 in. s.e. of Ravenglass. Talkin Tarn and Tindale Tarn, s.t:. of Brampton. Tarn Wadling, near Armathwaite. Dalton, 4 m. s.e. of Ulverston. Here are the remains of a Castle, and many iron-mines in the neighbourhood. One CUMBERLAND One mile and a half from Dalton are the beautiful and ve- nerable ruins of Furncss Abbey; the best view of it is on the east side. On the summit of the hill over the Abbev are the remains of a beacon or watch-tower, h. Duddon Bridge, near Broughton. 3 m. n w. from Duddon Bridge, among dreary mountains, is a Druidical temple called Sunken Kirk, in a meadow near a farm house ; and not far from this is another circle of stones not so large or numerous as the above. Near the Duddon Sands is Milium Castle ; on the west side is Black-coomb Mountain; from the summit may be seen seven English counties, and as many in Scotland, also the Isle of Man. h. Bootle. In the Ch. is an octagonal font of black mar- ble. On Esk Meals Common vestiges of an encampment. At Armaside, near the sea, is a Druidical circle of twelve stones. Near Gutterby is the monument called Kirkstones, forming part of two circles : about 200 yards from this is a Cairn fifteen yards in diameter. 3 m. further s. arc the Standing Stones. About one mile from Muncaster House are ruins, called the Old City of Barnscar. Upon Hard- knot Mountain is the vestige of a fort or camp. h. Ponsonhy, 8 m. n. of Ravcnglass. Near Ponsonby are the beautiful ruins of Calder Abbey {ante 1134). J. Senhouse, esq. whose mansion is near, has a fine collec- tion of Roman antiquities. At Ponsonby Hall is a curious carved bedstead, supposed to have been made in 1345.R.K. Egremont, 5 m. s. of Whitehaven. On the w. side of the towmare the ruins of the Castle. On the common are several tumuli, a remarkable one of loose stones, near it is a circle of ten large stones. 3 m. s. upon a hill are the ruins of a fort called Cameron Castle, b.e. Whitehaven. Near is the noble mansion of the Earl of Lonsdale. The coal mines are not far from the sea, some of them carried under it. A packet boat sails weekly from Whitehaven to the Isle of Man. h. On the sea shore is the Pulmonaria maritima. Moresby, 2 m. n. of Whitehaven. A short distance 'rom the village are the ruins of a Roman station, from \ence is a fine view. Near Moresby are caverns called s Holes, c.b. 'rkinoton, 6 m. N. of Whitahavcn. Workington Hall, CUMBERLAND. . Hall, the seat of J. C. Curwen, esq. an extensive park and pleasure grounds, Sec. Near are Seaton iron-works, h. Cockermouth. Ruin-, of a Castle ; under one of the towers a vault or crypt supported by a single pillar. North of the bridge an artificial mount called Toot-hill. e.b.

This island is situated 10 leagues off Cumberland, centri- cally placed in the Irish Sea between England and Ireland ; has the Isle of Anglesey to its S. with Scotland on the n. Its length is about 30 miles by 10 in its widest part : a high ridge of mountains runs through its centre, which occa- sions many springs and rivulets ; the extremities of the land are good pasture. This island was well known to the an- cients. Csesar called it Mona; Ptolemy, Monoeda; Pliny, Manabia; Orosius, Mevania; Nennius, Eubonia and Ma- now: the Britons, Menaw; and the natives, Manning. The inhabitants are supersth\ously inclined, thought to be prin- cipally occasioned by the ranges of romantic and grotesque caverns, and the idle stories they have led to. A Packet-boat sails weekly from Whitehaven for the island, and also from Liverpool. Castle Town. In the centre of this town is Castle Rushen, the chief fortress in the island.

This county is bounded on the n. by Westmoreland and part of Cumberland, on the e. by Yorkshire, on the w. by the Irish Sea, and on the s. by Cheshire : part of this coun- ty is divided by the sea at Morecamb Bay; exclusive of this detached part its length is about 60 miles, and its breadth at its s. end about 45 miles, and contains 1806 square miles. The climate is found to be wet in propor- tion to others, arising from its locality to the Irish Sea and the range of hills which bounds its eastern border ; it is nevertheless a very healthy county, and the inhabitants na- turally vigorous, active, and long-lived. The scenery to- wards the north and detached part partakes of the roman- tic character of the adjoining counties. The county abounds in bogs, or what are generally called mosses, not yet ren- dered profitable or useful. The inland navigation of this county has rendered most important facilities and benefits to its numerous manufactories, the more immediate atten- tion to which renders its agricultural consequence of infe- rior consideration.

This groat county, the third with respect to size in the kingdom, is bounded by Yorkshire (from which it is sepa- rated by the Humber), by the German Ocean, Norfolk, Not- tinghamshire, Leicestershire, Rutlandshire, Northampton- shire, and Cambridgeshire. Its length is 70 miles, its great- est breadth 45 miles, and it contains 2787 square miles, and is 260 miles in circumference. The unhealthy reputation of this county is vanishing daily, from the progress of draining and cultivation. Its soil is much varied, and its geogra- phical features marked by many irregularities ; and Lincoln- shire may be said to present four great natural features, each of which has a specific and nearly uniform character: these are the heaths and sandy lands, the wolds, the marsh-r es and fens. The manufactories are very inconsiderable, and its chief trade is fat cattle.

The climate and soil of this county are healthy, pleasant, and productive, and it is well watered. The surface is beautifully varied with gentle swells and depressions, which form some beautiful see- neiy, particularly in the well timbered parts. The rising grounds run e. and w. with valleys intervening about half a mile wide. The principal rivers are the Guash and Cha- ter. The extension of the Melton Mowbray canal to Oak- ham is of great benefit to the county. Dkystoke or Stokedry, 3m. s.w. by s. from Upping- ham. Ch. monuments. Uppingham, a market-town.

WESTMORELAND I; bounded on the N.w?and x. by Cumberland, on the f.. by Durham andYorkshire, and onthe s.ands.w. by Lancashire. The length of this county is about 40 miles, and from 16 to 25 in breadth, containing 844 square miles. The cli- mate of the county is generally moist ; the air is however pure and healthy, but the winters aic rather long and pinching. The county is divided into two baronies ; that or Westmoreland, although abounding with hills and ge- neral inequalities of surface, is an open country compared with the barony of Kendal ; this district abounds with mountains, many of which are bleak and barren, usually called Fells. Scarcely one quarter of the county is under cultivation, and this is mostly for oats. On the hills are grazed large flocks of sheep and herds of black cattle, which arc sent in- to the neighbouring counties. On the moors great quanti- ties of geese arc bred for distant markets. The moun- tains are stored with prodigious numbers of grouse, which cause an influx of sportsmen in the shooting season. The commerce and manufactures of Westmoreland are of con- siderable extent, particularly in coarse woollen cloth. The Eden, Ehnot, Loder, Ken, and Lunc, are the principal ri- vers : there are besides several lakes, among which is Win- ander Mere, the largest in England. Beetham or Bytham, 2m. s. from Milthorpe. Ruins of Helslack Tower and Arnside Tower, which is more per- fect.

'T'ti is district, comprising the three Ridings, is hounded on the K. by Durham and Westmoreland, on the e. by the (>er- nian Ocean, on the w. by Westmoreland and Lancashire, fi-.d on the s. by Cheshire, Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire, i;nd Lincolnshire, extending itself in length lot) miles e. to w. and 90 miies in breadth n. to s.: its circumference is 460 miles, and contains (i,013 square miles. The climate and air are in some parts cold and sharp, but in general moderate? and healthy ; the eastern parts, from the prevalence of damps and fogs, are considered the most unhealthy. To this highly interesting and extensive country applies much of the delineation giwn to its surrounding counties : but from the great space and variety it embraces, and the small limit appropriated in the present work to this part, the editor must content himself with observing, that as an agri- cultural, manufacturing, and commercial county, it ha* the most important features and is of national consequence, being intrinsically rich in itself, and is the further enriched by a valuable and active-minded population.

The air of the island is salubrious-, excepting about autumn, when the fogs from the sea oc- casion a disposition to ague. The soil, though unpromising in appearance, being both rocky and mountainous, is re- markably fertile in barley and oats, and a part of it bor- dering the Menai is finely wooded. The copper-works of this island are of the greatest magnitude and value. This island was chosen by the Druids or British Priests, during the persecution of the Romans, as an asylum ; but Roman ambition knew no bounds : they first invaded this Island in the reign of Nero, when it was bravely defended by the Britons. Julius Agricola added it finally to the Roman conquests. The English brought the Island under their subjection in the reign of Edward I. when it was first called Anglesey, or the English Island. There are now to be found, according to Mr. Bingleys Tour, 28 cromlechs, or the remains of cromlechs, viz. Cromlechs. Parishes where found.

BRECKNOCKSHIRE (SOUTH WALES) Is bounded by Radnorshire, Herefordshire, Monmouthshire, Glamorganshire, Carmarthenshire, and Cardiganshire. This is one of the most mountainous counties in Wales : the immense ridges of hills which separate this from the neighbouring counties render the climate of this county very temperate, and certain spots extremely fertile. It3 length and depth are 29 miles by 34, and it is 128 miles in circumference. This county is described as mountainous and grand, affording a sublimity of scenery, interspersed with large plots of cultivation, which attaches a pccul'ar character among the strongly marked features of South Wales ; and it has much the appearance of an English county, in the cultivation, and manners of the people.

On the e. it joins Denbighshire, and a small part of the s. is contiguous to Merionethshire. Its form is - extremely irregular : from the extremity in the sea to its boundary in the k. it is 45 miles, the breadth is various ; in circumference it is 150 miles, and contains 7/5 square miles. This county is the most rug- ged and truly alpine district in North W ales, forming pro- spects rude and savage in the highest degree, but not with- out a mixture of beauty where the dimensions of the vales admit of the varieties of wood, water, and meadow. The narrow vale of Conway is equally romantic and beautiful. Cattle, sheep, and goat3, are almost its sole rural riches, which are fed very high on the mountains in the summer months, tended by their owners, who reside in tempo- rary huts, and make cheese and butter. The vales produce a little meadow-grass for hay, which is got in, from the un- even surface, without the aid of wheel-carriages. The in- habitants live in great simplicity, and manufacture their clothes from the wool of their flocks. Copper, lead, and stone for hones for the cutlers' use, are found in this county. The extent of sea coast gives many haunts to various sea- fowl in the breeding season, and is inhabited by that fine species of hawk the Peregrine Falcon. Bedd-gelekt or keeert, 10 m. s.e. from Caernarvon, Here is a good inn, well situated for seeing some of the most interesting scenes in this and the adjacent county. The Tourist will visit Pont Aber-Glas-lyn, (the famous Sal- mon-Leap,) a beautiful bridge and grand cascade. Llyn a Cader, Llyn-y-Dywarchen, and a tine piece of water called Llyn Cawellyn, containing red char, Near is a fine cas- cade. Visit also Nant Gwynant, the most beautiful vale in Bnowdon; a short mile up the vale is Dinas Emiys, having upon its summit the remains of a stone building, and near this hill is the beautiful lake Llyn-y-Dinas. 2 m. beyond thi.;, under the Y-Ar.u., is a romantic hollow called Cwm Llan CAERNARVONSHIRE. Llan, and not far from it Llyn Gwynant a small lake, and the ruins of a small Chapel. Near the upper part of the vale are two immense fragments of rocks. Here the moun- tain barrier divides, opening into Nantperis, and further in- to Nant Cerrig: on the right the lofty Sh'mbod, and on the the left cataract Rhaiadr Cwm dyli. Walk from Bedd- gelert 2 m. to Pont Aber Glass-lyn, one of the wonders of Wales. Near Llyn Cawellyn, about midway between Bedd- gelert and Caernarvon (by a small inn the residence of a guide), is the beginning of the ascent to Snowdon, the highest mountain in Wales, the scenery wonderfully mag- nificent, which no tourist will omit ascending. if the clouds are otf the mountain. But the best route to the top of Snowdon, (another of the Welch wonders) is either to ride, walk, or take a chaise from Caernarvon to Cwm Glo Llan- rug, about 4 m. from Caernarvon, there take boat up Llyn Padarn Lake, land near Dolbadern Castle, take a guide from thence and ascend by Caunant Mawr, where is a fine water- fall [from Dolbadern Castle to the top of Snowdon is 4 miles]. Mr. Bingley recommends the following route from Caer- narvon to the summit of Snowdon . " Go from Caernar- von to Dolbadern Castle; then turn to the right by the wa- terfall Caunant Mawr up the mountain, to a vale called Cwm Brvvynog, and proceeding along the ridge s.w. of, and immediately over, the vale of Llanberis, you will come in sight of a black and almost perpendicular rock with Clogwyn Du'r Arddu Lake at the bottom; leave this about a quarter of a mile to your right, ascend the steep called Lechwtdd-y-Re, and direct your course s.w. to the Well (a place known to all the guides) ; from hence it is about a mile to the highest peak of Snowdon." Bivglci/'s Tour, 12mo, p. 216.

MONTGOMERYSHIRE (NORTH WALES) Has Denbighshire, Merionethshire, Cardiganshire, Radnor- shire, and Shropshire, as surrounding counties. The length is about 36 miles from the northern to the southern angle, and from e. tow. nearly the same; it is 167 miles in circumfe- rence, and contains 982 square miles. This county, though barren and mountainous in manyparts.has a greater mixture of fertile vale and plain than most of the Welch counties. The most considerable level tract is that in which the Severn flows, which rises in the lofty mountain of Plynlimmon. The air is esteemed, though in parts cold and sharp, very salubrious. The county is rich in its agricultural and na- tural products : its manufactories are also of consideration, the centre of which is Welch Pool, from whence they are sent to Shrewsbury. Montgomeey.

It is about 27 miles long and 30 broad; in circum- ference about 115 miles. The climate is temperate and salubrious, but is more affected by rain than any other county, from its peculiar situation. The soil varies consi- derably, including the extremes of bad and good and the in- termediate gradations. The surface is generally hilly, and! rendered fruitful by its numerous streams. Agriculture is followed but with little spirit ; the labour is principally by oxen, which gives rise to an excellent breed of fat black cattle with spreading horns, which are highly prized at Smithfield and by the English grazier.

Th e contiguous counties are Montgomeryshire, Shi'opshire, Herefordshire, Brecknockshire, and Cardiganshire. It is 26 miles long, and in breadth 31 ; circumference 86 miles, and it contains 455 square miles. The air and climate are mostly cold ; the northern and western parts abound in rocks and mountains ; the s. and e. parts are more level and under some degree of cultivation, and produce good corn. The woods and hills throughout this county are celebrated for game. Presteigne, a market town, and the principal in the county.

The tourist will more completely traverse the beauties and peculiarities of Scotland, by entering the kingdom from En- gland at Northumberland, and returning by Cumberland; in which order the following notes in the MS. were put toge- ther: but ongoing to the prqss it was thought that for the purpose of reference, especially as many in travelling unite business icith their pleasure, it would facilitate the general use of the Memoranda if they were placed in the first in- stance in alphabetical order by counties, leaving it in the poicer of any person, by giving their orders to their bookbinder, to make such arrangement as should best suit their particular wishes or objects; with this view each county is kept separate and unpaged. This arrangement having given rise to some blank parts of pages, the observant traveller may conveniently apply these to his occasional remarks, or the whole work may be interleaved for more general observation. The proposed order, if the tourist enters Scotland by Northumberland and returns by Cumberland, is Roxburghshire Selkirkshire Peebles-shire Berwickshire Haddingtonshire Edinburghshire Linlithgowshire Stirlingshire Clackmannanshire Kinrosshire Fifeshire Perthshire Angvsshire or For- farshire Kincardineshire vol.

ARGYLESHIRE or INVERARY, Much intersected by the sea, winding in various forms round the base of its stupendous mountains which rise into savage grandeur in the interior. Here may the picturesque tourist indulge himself in all the wildness of Nature, whilst the pale ghosts of Ossian's days are moaning in the wintry storm or sighing in the summer breeze. The artist too may here copy scenes in which Salvator Rosa would have delighted : here may he view hill beyond hill in mighty amphitheatre, whilst the torrent dashes from the rocky steeps over brown heath, rushing through the narrow val- leys, and carrying fertility to the lowland plains. In the various lochs fishing always presents amusement. The mo- ralist may here trace the almost faded picture of ancient Highland manners. The antiquary also will find food for research in the numerous ruins of cairns, &c. Kilmalie, 3 m. n. from Fort William. Part of this pa- rish is situate in Inverness-shire.

If not so romantic in all parts as some of the other coun- ties n. of Tweed, yet this shire presents a fine field for the statist and moralist, in tracing the effects of commerce and manufacture upon the soil and upon the people. The pic- turesque tourist, however, need not fear amusement in hi own way, particularly in that district distinguished as Car- rick, the scenery and localities of which have been immor- talized by the Ayrshire Ploughman. The poetic traveller will also delight in treading the steps of his favourite Burns, as he rambles on the "banks of Doom." Observe the new works executing at Troon, near Irvine, where a har- bour is constructing, with railways into the interior. Every where also are interspersed numerous remains of antiqui- ty in cairns, Danish forts, Druidical circles, and less an- cient religious ruins. Colmonel, 4 m. n.e. by n, from Ballantree.

BANFFSHIRE Is a more open county than its neighbours,' and agreeably interspersed with numerous streams descending from the alpine heights, to the southward. Here may the minera- logist visit the mountain of Cairngorum, whose productions are now so much in request both for science and for orna- ment. Near Portsoy he will be particularly gratified by a variety of specimens to be picked up at tbe quarries of limestone, marble, and granite. The roads are good, and communications easy.

This county presents much interesting research to the ad- mirer of Border history; scarce a hill that does not possess its old baronial den, and not a tower or turret that has not been celebrated in the Border ballads Its sea-coast also deserves the examination of the geologist. Antiquarian and picturesque ramblers may trace the Lammermuir Hills j and there, even the unfortunate rambler after health may find solace, and perhaps recovery, from the goats' whey for which this district has long been famous. On the shores round Coldingham and its district the epicure may catch and eat his fish in perfection.

The Isle of Bute, Isle of Arran, the greater and the lesser Cumbray, and Inch Marnoc, form a county. This shire and Caithness send a member to parliament alternately. BUTE is about 20 m. in length, and 5 broad in general. It contains many antiquities, but possesses little of the pic- turesque, though certainly interesting to the tourist who wishes to trace the progress of agricultural improvement, and the benefits resulting from judicious conduct on the part of a landlord, whose generous forbearance towards the tenantry some years ago, and active support in agri- cultural expenditure, are now amply repaid to his suc- cessor. The climate is temperate ; but the local position of the island subjects it to almost continual tempests of wind and rain, that check the farmer's hope, and also the tourist's progress and comfort. Mount Stewart, the seat of the Earl of Bute. From the hill of Cil-chattan is a fine view. Kil'sa.rth. Ruin of the Ch. Near is a circular inclo- sure called the Devil's Cauldron, made of stone but without mortar. Rothsay (the capital of the island). Fine remains of the Castle. [See a plate of it in Pennant's Foyage\.

At a place called Moni-quil is a small Druidical circle. In Tormore plain are four circles of stones : near these is a double circle, with a mound in the lesser; not far from the above are the reliques of a stone chest. At a small distance further is a cairn of most stupendous size, formed of great pebbles. Upon the western coast near Druim-anduin is a round lower. The beach is hollowed into vast caves : one called King's Cave, for having afforded Robert Bruce shelter before he defeated Baliol, is 120 feet long, 60 high, and 48 wide; several antique figures are cut on the rock, Fingal's Cave. At Feorlingis another stupen- dous BUTESHIRE works, &c. Clackmannan. The old Tower, in which are shown the great sword and casque of the celebrated Robert Bruce; also the two-handed sword of Sir John de Graham. T.G. Dollar, 7 ni. n.e. by n. from Clackmannan. Beauti- ful glens and wood around the Tower of Castle Campbell, or Castle Gloom, surrounded by the Water of Care. This castle is approached by a winding narrow sheep-path, now a majestic and frowning ruin. Mrs. Radcliffe's celebrated ** Castle of Udolpho " does not surpass this in the dreary ideas and horrors of the evils of feudal times we are apt to associate with such views, t.g. In this county is a natural cataract formed by the Dovan or Devon at Cauldron Linn, resembling those of the Nile in Egypt. Vide Tullybole, Kinross-shire, for the way to this and other curious objects. Dr. Garnet in his Tour describes these fully. The tourist will turn to vol. ii. p. 142. DUMBARTONSHIRE. This county has been more visited by picturesque tourist* than any other in Scotland, on account of Loch Lomond, too often described to require illustration. The mineralo- gist will not omit to examine the hill or rock of Dumbar- ton, whose basaltic columns are so impregnated with iron as to possess a magnetic quality. The specimens of zeo- lite and prehnite which it affords will add to the collector's treasures. Dumbarton (a royal burgh). The famous Rock and Castle, t.g. Glass Manufactory, h.g. Cabdross, 3 m. n.w. from Dumbarton. Monument of the celebrated Dr. Smollet near the village of Renton. t.g. Kilmarnock, 10 m. n.e. from Dumbarton. Buchan- nan House, the seat of the Duke of Montrose.

Here is a very good inn situated upon the banks of Loch Lomond, one of the most beautiful lakes in the kingdom, (which is in the centre of the county, 24 m. n. to s. from 7 to 2 e. and w). It has thirty islands, three of which have churches; it abounds with fish, and its banks are lined with fishermen. Near are slate quarries, t.g. Ascend the Mountain Ben Lo- mond for a fine view of the Lake. Upon the top grow the Sibbaldia procumbent, and many other rare plants.

DUMFRIES-SHIRE, (which includes ANNANDALE and NIDDISDALE). ^his county is perhaps the most frequented by Southern travellers of any in Scotland ; for here have the wreaths of Cupid and the chains of Hymen been often clenched upon the blacksmith's anvil ! Those, however, whose objects lead them beyond Gretna Green will derive much amusement from the scenery, antiquities, mineralogy, &c. Sanquhar, 30 m.N.w. from Dumfries.

HADDINGTONSHIRE cm EAST LOTHIAN, For the agricultural tourist this is perhaps the most in- teresting county north of the Tweed ; whilst to the anti- quary it presents as numerous an assemblage of ancient Castles as any other, most of them distinguished in the annals of feudal times. The fertility of the soil and its vi- cinity to the capital have also, in later days of peace and security, rendered it the residence of many of the nobility and gentry, making it both populous and cheerful.

INVERNESS-SHIRE, One of the most extensive counties in the kingdom, reach- ing from sea to sea in a n.e. and s.w. direction, and tra- versed by the Caledonian Canal, whose course deserves the notice of the tourist. Though wild and uncultivated, it is interesting ; and is very well described in Johnson's tour. The wetness of the climate renders it more pastoral than agricultural. Here the antiquary may gratify his curiosity, particularly near the Fall of Foyers, with the exa- mination of several vitrified forts, of uncertain origin.

The whole shore of Strathhaird is indented with caves and grottoes; the rocks are piled into various grotesque and elegant structures. See Dr. Macleay's description of this Spar Cave. MINERALS. The minerals in this Island are lead, iron-ore, limestone, marble in the parish of Strath, fine pebbles near Sartle, and fine agates near Loch Fullart. In the beds of the rivulets red and white coral, plentiful on the south and west coast. Common asbestos (B. M. 226) ; Actynolite (B. M. 228). RAKE PLANTS.

The inhabitants are fairer and taller than those of the other Islands. In the parish of Barvas a huge stone 20 feet high, and nearly as broad, called Thrushel. On the n. side of Loch Carlvay jthere are similar stones 12 feet high, and many such x 3 throughout ISLANDS OF SCOTLAND. throughout the island : but the most remarkable piece of antiquity of this kind is a clump of pyramidal stones, 39 in number, from (5 to 7 feet in height these are supposed Druidical. Corals and corallines are found on the shore. HARRIS ISLE (Inverness-shire), Which joins to Lewis by a narrow sound, in part dry, af- fords no particular ohject. The names of the divisions of this island Berneray, Pabby, Calligray and Ensay, and of the other Islands about ure supposed to be of Danish ori- gin; through the islands there are vestiges of Danish forts. The general appearance is either ilat, or gently sloping from a little elevation in the middle. The principal islands in this range are North Uisr, Bknbecula, South Cist, and Barra ; they narrow into a point to the Bishop's Isles. About these islands reiuatk- ab'y large cod and ling are caught. ISLE OF MULL {Argyllshire). Aros. Near : s a large Castle. (Castle Doart). Mac- Donald's curious cave, roof HO feet high and proportion- ably wide, the finest and largest; in Scotland, on the west- ern side of the Island, t.g. The minerals are limestone ; sandstone ; granite ; mar- bles; and elegant pebbles on the shore, t.g. On the moun- tain Bennenich, one of the most uncommon productions is to be met with, a zeolite or silex impregnated with pe- troleum. This coaibination is said not to be described by any naturalist, t.g. ISLE OF STAFFA (Argyleshirc). Tnr. celebrated Fingal's Cave, consisting of basaltic pil- lar*. The cave and rocks are the greatest curiosities of this kind in Britain. From Staffa you have a view of the very curious Island of Boo-sha-la, with its bending basaltic pillars. For ISLANDS OF SCOTLAND. For those who wish to visit the Island of Staffa the (oli lowing route is recommended : From Inverary proceed to Port Sonnochin on the banks of Loch Awe, cross the ferry (about half a mile broadband go to Bun awe ten miles ; cross the Lake, beyond which is a tolerably good inn ; from thence to Oban, distant about twelve miles. At Oban hire a boat to convey you to the Isle of Mull, and proceed to Laggan Inn, the occupier speaks English, and rents the Island of Staffa: you are there accommodated with a boat to convey you to Stafia, about ten miles. If the weather is fine there is no danger, otherwise it should not be attempted . When a visitor enters the Cave he is recommended to take off his boots, as the tops of the pillars are very slip- pery. IONA, ok ISLE OF I-COLUMB-KILL (Argyleshire), " A small but celebrated island, once the luminary of the Caledonian regions." St. Columba, the founder of its monastery and its fame, gives rise to its appella- tion although generally called I, pronounced as EE. It lies w. between Mull and Tirey Island, about 6 m. s.w. from Staffa : produces fine marbles of various colours. Ruins of the Cathedral ; the inside has circular Saxon pil- lars with handsome sculptured capitals, and many curious tombs. In the Ch.-yard is a fine Cross, called MacLean's, 14 feet high. [Coughs Camden, p. 7 15-] In the Nunnery Ch., are many tombstones covered with cowdung: theAb- bess and others are engraved in Mr. Pennant's Voyage, likewise a View of the Island, and Inside of the Cathedral. On the road to the hills is a large and elegant Cross, called MacLean's Cross. Tombs of the kings ; 48 kings of Scot- land said to have been buried here. Tombs in Oran Chapel. Upon the s.w. side of the Island are a variety of pretty stones ; such as violet-coloured quartz, nephritic stones, and fragments of porphyry, granite, and zoeblitz marble. The tourist must not neglect to ascend the hill of Dunii, from whose summit is a most picturesque view of several other islands. The sea shore is ornamented with the beau- tiful Pidmonaria maritir.M(px Sea Bugloss), and Erlngo )na- ritima ISLANDS OF SCOTLAND. ritima (or Sea Holly) ; the Atropa Belladonna (or Deadly Nightshade) is likewise found upon the island, p. As most of the Islands worthy notice lie opposite or bordering upon Argyleshire, I shall mention two or three others, presuming the tourist will proceed afterwards to Buteshire and Dumbartonshire. ISLE OF JURA (Argyleshire). If the tourist is a good sailor he will find that a trip to the Island of Jura will amuse him, to see the Paps, three vast hills resembling Paps. From the highest (called Beinn- an-oir), is a fine sea prospect that will reward the ascent. The habitations of the peasants, called sheelins, are sin- gular in form and substance. Mr. Pennant has given a plate of the Paps and Sheelins in his Voyage, p. ISLE OF IAY on ISLAY (Argyleshire), Divided from Jura by the Sound, which is about 1 m. broad. See the curious Danish fort on the summit of Dun Bhorairaig. Ruins of Columba's Chapel and ancient Cross. In the Ch.-yard of Kilarow is an ancient Cross j(now down), with inscriptions and figures. Upon an island in Loch-guirin are the remains of Macdonald's Cas- tle. Near Balnabbi House are three upright Stones of a stupendous size, the largest 17 feet high and 3 broad. See the fine Cave of Saneg-mor. Near the mouth of the Sound is the celebrated cave Uamh-Fhearnaig. p. ISLE OF COLONSAY WITH ORANSAY (Argyleshire), About 8 or 9 m. from the Sound of Jura. Upon it are the Abbey ch. and curious tombs, and a most elegant Cross highly ornamented with sculpture. A plate of the Cross and Monastery are in Mr. Pennant's Voyage. For the Isles of Arran and Bute, which with Cambrays and Inchmaraock form Buteshire, the tourist will turn to the county. ORKNEY or NORTHERN ISLES. These Islands, the Orcadcs of the ancients, are separated from the main land by a frith 10 m. broad. They are about 30, containing IB parishes, and 24,000 inhabitants. The largest, Pomona or Mainland, on which is situated Kirkwall (the capital), is 35 m. long and 9 m. broad. The current and tides running between the Islands are extremely rapid and dangerous. Although these islands have hitherto been considered out of the tourist's track, they are not the less worthy of inspec- tion ; for, even in the absence of any tree higher than a goose- berry bush, still do they offer a singular kind of picturesque scenery, consisting of gently rising hills or eminences co- vered with a black heath interspersed with spots of culti- vation, and fringed with rocks or sandy beaches lashed by the foaming ocean. The effect in a bright summer day is very fine, and is lively beyond imagination, whilst even in winter the sombre expression is highly pleasing to the con- templative mind. He who has not seen Scilly, or the Ork- neys, cannot be aware of the picturesque variety that may be produced by rocks, wild heath, and ocean, under all the changes of tint and aerial perspective, intermingled with the casual glare of sunshine and the gloom of the passing squall. KikkwalIj.- Cathedral of St. Magnus (1140). Ruins of Kings Castle of Kirkwall. Ruins of Bishops Palace. The Dwarfic Stone at the Wart Kill of Hoy, and many other si- milar monuments supposed Uruidicai. InKoy,and(Jnemsay, there is every appearance of a rich mine of lead ore, from a |on of which when wrought there was a yield of 46 ounces of silver. Both lead and iron appear in Sandwick and Strc-m- pess, SHETLAND or ZETLAND ISLES. Thkse lie considerably n. of the Orkney Islands. The in- habitants (20,000) are a stout people, and partake of the general manners and habits of those in the Orkneys. MAINLAND, (the principal Island) is 60 miles long and 20 hroad in parts, at other par s only 2 miles across. No wood or coal in the Island, but plei.ty of heath. - FETLARISLE Is remarkable for its mineral (chiefly chalybeate) springs. Near the Loch of Fetlar specimens of very rich bog iron have been found j also quantities of iron in the sand. Spe- cimens of copper and plumbago have been got here. As- bestos, garnets, rock crystal, &c. are also found here. UIST, The most northern of the Isles, has pleasing scenery, be- ing diversitied with rising grounds. The coast exhibits a number of curious coves. Garnets of fine size and lustre, spars of different colours, sponge, and variety of corals are found here also ; and from indications it is supposed coal might be found here. Thompson's General Description of Gotland. KINCARDINESHIRE. Though a maritime county from locality, yet it has few of the advantages connected with that situation, for its iron- bound coast possesses only two very indifferent harbour3. The interioi 4 is not very mountainous 5 and towards the sea* coast it is very flat, particularly in the Vale of Strathmore, and in that extensive district called the How of the Mearns* Its mineralogy is not very interesting, consisting prin- cipally of limestone; but there are Some very fine jas- pers and pebbles found here, especially in the parish of St. Cyrus ; the presence of iron is also denoted by some chalybeate springs in the parish of Arbuthnot. St. Cyrus, 5 m. s.w. from Inverbervie. There are se- veral remarkable dens and cascades in this parish worth visiting. Ruins of the Kame of Mathers. Lauriston and Murphy Castles, t.g. Fettercain, 8 m. w. from Inverbervie.- Grannachie Bridge, considered a great curiosity. Small remains of Fenella Castle, t.g. 2 im from this place, by the roadside, is a stupendous Cairn of uncommon form. y. Dunnotter, 13 m. Nj from Inverbervie. Majestic ruina of Dunnotter Castle ; the rock is composed of pudding- stone, p. A small distance from Stonehaven is a petri- fying spring. Fordoun is a district that will repay the antiquary for a visit, since he will meet with perhaps the most northern re- mains of the Roman empire, on the extensive verge of the Grampian Hills which touch upon this parish. These con- sist of the vestiges of a Roman Camp, where urn3 and other memorials have been dug up. Here also may be traced the ruins of the royal residence of Kenneth III. Mary Kirk is a cheerful little village, situated amidst line level fields interspersed with numerous seats of the gentry, in a rich and luxuriant aspect, at one end of the How of Mearns. Laurence Kirk is a village which also deserves exami- nation, being a very recent erection of the late patriotic Lord Gardenston. Here the tourist may take a station for some days. The accommodations are good, and he may enjoy an excellent library. KINROSS-SHIRE. This is u little inland county, circular in its form, and about 9 miles in diameter, remarkable for the singula- rity of its scenery, the centre being a plain, but rising into mountains on all sides, where it joins Fife, Stirling, Perth and Clackmannan shires. This singularity of form is well deserving the investigation of the geologist, with respect to the two contending theories in that branch of science. But it is not to scientific tourists alone that Kin- ross-shire is interesting : for here is Loch Leven, a noble expanse of water, whose wild and romantic scenery adds forcibly to the sentiments inspired by historical recollec- tion whilst contemplating Loch Leven Castle. Nor will the epicure disdain to solace himself with the red trout and eels, with which the lake so much abounds as to pay near 1000/. per annum for the right of fishery. The romantic explorer of these rude scenes of feudal barbarism will look with complacence on the varied landscape of " Portmoak on Leven's southern banks and braes," where the melan- choly poet of these hills, the obscure yet admirable Bruce, first tuned his pastoral reed : and the antiquary will at least give a day to a ramble on the north side of the Ochil hills, where, in the parish of Cleist, he may trace several vestiges of Roman stations. Kinross. Kinross House. 5 m. from Kinross is a very good inn. The handsome mansion of Mr. Graham, on the borders of Loch Leven; and the distant view of Lomond Hill. t.c. Orwell, 3 m. n.e. from Kinross. Burleigh Castle, and noted Ash-tree where Lord Burleigh concealed himself.T.G. Tullybole, 5 m. s.w. from Kinross. Near is the De- vil's Mill, so called from the precipitation of a turbulent cascade, accompanied by a regular noise similar to the clack of a mill: the reverence with which the Sunday is regarded, and the incessant clack of the fallen water, have occasioned the inhabitants to give it the appellation of the Devil's Mill. Near this is the Rumbling Bridge, consisting vol. u. y of KINROSS-SHIRE. of a rude plank thrown over a steep woody chasm, but near which is now erected a handsome stone bridge. Cauldron Linn, 1 m. further down, is perpetually boiling and foam- ing, with a din almost deafening, and considered the first natural curiosity of Scotland. Near are two waterfalls. Castles of Loch Leven and Lochor. A little to the west- ward of the latter is a Roman Camp very entire, t.g. BARE PLANT. Valeriana pyrcnaica, (Heart-leaved Valerian :) ditches and about walls at Blair Adam, 7 KIRKCUDBRIGHTSHIRE or GALLOWAY. This is an extensive county ; partly maritime ; rugged enough to be inconvenient to the traveller, yet not suffici- ently sublime to counterbalance its bleakness in the eye of the tourist. Its great charm, therefore, is for the antiqua- ry, who, in this county alone, may trace specimens of each variety of Scottish antiquity. The most remarkable of these is on the eastern limits of the county, where on the banks of the river Orr, a few miles w. of the town of Dum- fries, may be seen an ancient moat, scarcely surpassed iu height and extent by any other monument of that species in the kingdom. Rising from a plain to the altitude of forty yards, and steep on all sides but on the s. it is topped by a smaller eminence, affording a correct view of the manner of the popular assemblies in remote ages. The fossils afi'ord little amusement to the mineralogist ; yet are not the less valuable to the agriculturist, consist- ing principally of lime and marl ; but towards the sea- coast, which is bold and rocky, granite is met with, and there are chalybeate springs on the northern verge of the county. Kells, 2 m. n. from New Galloway. There are six Lochs or Lakes in this parish, and a very curious Rocking- stone moveable by the ringer. It is called Mickle Lump on the Hill Mullae. g.a.

Lochrutton parish contains some vestiges of a sup- posed Druidical temple, on a hill called the " iSeven Grey Stanes." See also several feudal towers, especially that called The Castle of Hile. Between this parish and Dum- fries is Terreagles, the ancient Castle of the Earls of Nithsdale. Balmaghie parish, a few miles n. of Kirkcudbright, has nothing remarkable but the ancient Castle of Thrieve, the baronial den of the first Lords of Galloway. The minerals of this county have not been recorded, and only one rare plant the Scirpus glaucut, Glaucous Club Rush : salt marsh west of Ardbiiland. LANARKSHIRE or CLYDESDALE. This is the central county of the south of Scotland, and is in all respects one of the most deserving of the tourist's in- spection ; in regard not only to its waterfalls and other ro- mantic scenery, but aiso its antiquities and modem im- provements in agriculture and manufacture, especially throughout that far-famed district the Vale of Clyde. But it is not alone in cultivated beauty that it is rich, for Pen- nant's sketch of the Lead Hills cannot fail to excite curi- osity and examination, where, as he describes it, nothing can equal the gloomy appearance of the surrounding coun- try, as neither shrub, tree, verdure, nor picturesque rocks appear to amuse the eye, and the visitor must plunge into the bowels of the earth for amusement forming thus a fine contrast with the scenes on the Clyde, as delineated by Newte, where so many circumsiances concur to render them sublime and beautifully picturesque ; their woody banks, the romantic face of the country, and the form of the rocks over which dash the well known Falls, being so varied as to give these awful torrents the grandest as well as the most diversified appearance.

This county, from its immediate vicinity to the capital, forms a prominent feature in a Scottish tour where time is an object. It is in fact part of the Garden of Scotland, in respect to the great number of seats of the nobility and gentry, the towns, villages, ancient towers, plantations, Ike. which crowd together to adorn the southern banks of the Forth ; whilst the Highland Mountains, dimly seen in all the varied tints of distance and aerial perspective, speak to the traveller's heart, of other lands, of times long past, and of pastoral seclusion. Dalmeny, 8 m. w. from Edinburgh. Earl of Rose- berry's grounds. Craigie Hall. Dundas Castle and Dud- dingston are in this parish, t.g. Let the tourist mark the fine scenery of this district, rich in cultivation, and enliven- ed by the Forth.

This county has little of the romantic to recommend it to the tourist; but presents a pleasing picture, notwithstand- ing, to those who can enjoy the appearance of plenty and comfort in a climate where such can only be insured by the closest industry. Yet the climate of this northern district must once have been very genial; for even so lately as the reign of James I. it is described as surpassing all other parts of Scotland in its orchards. Moray was often the scene of Danish invasion ; and the colloquial peculiarities of its natives seem to bespeak a foreign origin. The sur- face being mostly flat, the mineralogist will not expect much gratification ; and the antiquary, with the exception of the well-known objects of research, will find little to in- terest him. Cromdale, 18 m. s. from Elgin. 4 m. w. is Castle Grant, with many interesting paintings. Lochindorb Lake, Island, and Fort, are in this parish. Elgin (a royal burgh) beautifully situated. The vene- rable Towers of the Castle, which have so fine an effect on entering the county.

Pic- turesque excavated rocks of Caussie near the coast. In Innes House, the seat of Lord Fife, are several good pir- tures. " Elgin, viewed from the new hill on the Lossie Mouth road, has a singularly magnificent and beautiful effect, and is called the Garden of Scotland." " The new road from Elgin to Craig Ellachie leading to the Islands is worthy of the tourist's particular notice, es- pecially the pedestrian : he will also be delighted with rhe road to Avi Moor along the borders of the Spey." Cossie Mouth, 6 m. from Elgin. A retired watering place. Spynie, 3 m. n. by e. from Elgin. 'Plantations and seat of MURRAY ok MORAYSHIRE. of Findrassie. Ruins of the Bishop's Palace.

The passages with inverted commas have been taken from Miss Spcncc's Letters from the Highlands, whose interest- ing work has afforded the Editor much pleusure. NAIRNSHIRE. This county, containing only five parishes, is too small to detain the tourist long in its examination: indeed its gene- ral features present nothing very striking; though to the antiquary it may possess some interest from its connexion with the immortal pages of our Avonian bard 5 whilst, even in later days, it offers to the traveller's contemplation that scene which saw the downfall of the hopes of a family once regal but now extinct at least in the line of hereditary claim ; for in this district is the field of battle generally known by the name of Ciilloden, but more correctly speak- ing, the battle of Drumossie Muir, the place on which it was actually fought, though in the vicinity of Culloden House. This field is still visited by tourists, who, even at this late date, may be supplied by the peasantry with relics of the contest. Nairn, aburgh. Vestiges of the Castle. See the bridge and port. A royal fort. t.g. Calder, 5 m. s.w. by s. from Nairn. Calder or Caw- tler Castle; in it, it is said, stands the bed in which Duncan lay when he was murdered by Macbeth, t. g. In the woods of Calder is a roaring torrent called the Brook of Achneem. p. Altdearn parish contains several ancient castellated ruins ; and there are several others in different parts of the county. vol., it. PEEBLES-SHIRE or TWEEDALE. This county, though out of the line of communication be- tween Berwick and the capital, is traversed in part by the Carlisle route, if the tourist choose to deviate a little to the left, by the Moffat road, for the sake of visiting that cele- brated watering-place. It is completely an inland district ; mountainous, and therefore principally pastoral, boasting of the banks of Tweed and several other romantic streams. As there are various chalybeate springs in different parts of the county, especially at Linton and Kirkurd, the minera- logist may expect considerable amusement ; also in exa- mining the veins of iron-ore and alum-slate, not far distant from Linton and near to La Mancha, the seat of a hranch of the Cochrane family. Limestone also is found ; with free- stone, shell marie, and fullers' earth, at Bridgehouse in Linton parish. Let the mineralogist examine Newlands pa- rish, there he may trace a variety of specimens and add to his collection. Peebles (a royal burgh). Ruins of Cross Ch. (Alex. If- 1257). Nidpath Castle. Ruins of Horseburgh Castle. Se- veral Roman and British Camps in the neighbourhoods, g Lyne, 5 m. xv. from Peebles. Near the Ch. a large Ro- man Camp. t.g. Manor, 3j m. s.w. from Peebles.

Bboit.htok, 11 m. s.w. from Peebles. Near are the remains of several castles or towers, one of them formerly occupied by Macbeth, t.g. Kirkurd parish contains the hill vulgarly called "Hell's Cleugh:" a journey to its summit will be amply repaid by tiic extensive prospect. Examine the sulphureous spring. Traquair parish will not be neglected by the lover of Scottish poesy, whilst the "Bush above Traquair " pos- sesses a vocal charm. The trip from Moffat Wells, in Dum- fries-shire, forms a pleasant jaunt for a summer day. z 2 Cowey's PEEBLES-SHIRE. CoxCkv's Linn, in Eddleston parish, a fall of 35 feet on Peebles or Eddleston water. Near it is a beautiful lake, from whence issues the South Esk. A fine prospect from Dundroich or Druids' Hill. Tins parish comes within the -limits of a day's excursion from the capital, being only 17 miles s. PERTHSHIRE. This county, in addition to the capital, and Lanarkshire, will give complete employment to a summer tourist whose stay north of Tweed does not exceed six weeks or two months. It is in fact, as a county, the hest specimen of Scotland ; containing within its own limits every variety of scenery, of mountain, dell, lake, or cultivated plain ; combining even in a pedestrian day's ramble, scenes of the rudest yet most sublime magnificence, with whatever is beautiful in artificial cultivation. Its numerous lakes di- versify the scene ; and the Highland manners cannot fail to gratify the southern tourist, who comes here for no- velty. In traversing many parts of the country, however, even about Loch Katharine, especially if a pedestrian, he must learn to be content without many delicacies, either in food or accommodation; and if not a pedestrian, then for the comforts of a carriage he must be content to resign the investigation of much romantic scenery, pervious only to the hardy foot-traveller. If the visitor's time is circumscribed, then he must select the most prominent objects : these are Perth, Dunkeld, Loch Katharine, Loch Rannoch, Loch Tayand SStrathern. Other objects of minor importance, if time permits, he will find enumerated below. Culross, 12 m. s.e. from Dumblane. Old Ch. Abbey (1217). Ruins of Tullyallan Castle, t.o. Dc.m blank, a market town.

Callander, 12 m. n.w. by n. from Dumblane. The wild and romantic scenery in the ride from Callander to the Trosachs and Loch Katharine is delightful. The Trosachs are a series of rude wooded rocks. The Trosachs and Loch Katharine are reckoned incomparably picturesque; it is 15 miles to Loch Katharine. Near Callender see the water- fall, and timber bridge thrown over the west branch of the Keltic t.g, 2 3 Monzie, PERTHSHIRE. Moxzie, 4 m. x.fromDumblane.

This county enjoys great advantages from its maritime po- sition at the mou'h of the Clyde; but more especially from its connexion with the enterprising city of Glasgow, to . which it may be said to be the port; circumstances which will always make it interesting to the philanthropic tourist, who can rejoice to see plenty and comfort starting up amidst what would otherwise have been almost hopeless sterility. If Renfrewshire does not in itself possess pecu- liar beauty in its high and barren hills, or even in the bet- ter cultivated lowlands along the Clyde, yet it has the power of affording considerable gratification to the pictu- resque traveller, from the views which present themselves across the Clyde in the ride from Glasgow to Greenock, where Argyllshire and Dumbartonshire offer their lofty mountains and romantic valleys to his eye in all the softened charms of distance. The mineralogist also will not be disappointed in his researches ; nay, he will rather be surprised to find amongst the petrifactions and imbedded substances many reliques of animals and vegetables never supposed to have been indigenous. ' Mrarns, 7 m. s.k. from Renfrew. Ruins of the old Castle, and Cotton-mills, t.g. Eastwood, 5 m. e. by s. from Renfrew. At Thornlie- bank there is a remarkable schistous rock, containing a va- riety of marine petrifactions well worth the attention of the naturalist, t.g. Paisley, 3 m. s.w. from Renfrew Ruins of the Abbey (1164), and burial-place of the Earls of Abercorn; in the latter a fine echo. Manufactories of gauze, lawns, cam- brics, and threads. In the limestone quarries may be found a great variety of fossils and petrifactions, t.g. Upon the road side from Paisley to Renfrew is a tumulus with a stcme of memorial upon the top. p. Gkeenock, as a new commercial creation, must not pass unnoticed by the tourist. See the Ch, Tontine Build- vot. n. 2 a ings, RENFREWSHIRE. ings, and Town-house. Also in a hill above the town some specimens of copper ore. Kilmacolm parish possesses some curious modern an- tiques, being the sacramental chalices used by Knox the Reformer, now preserved at Finlayston. Lochwinnoch, about 10 m. s.w. from Paisley, has in its vicinity Peel Castle on an island in the loch; and the hand- some house and grounds of Castle Semple, near which a magnetic rock has lately been discovered, affecting the needle to a distance of 150 yards. Johnson's Bridge will always be interesting to the pa- triotic traveller; since in its immediate vicinity is Ellerslie Castle, now in ruins, the residence of the far-famed Sir William Wallace, the friend and fellow-soldier of Bruce. MINERALS. Laumonite (B. M. 445) : near Paisley. Lead ore; barytes ; osmundstone : at Eglesham. Coal; limestone ; freestone : in Lochwinnoch parish. Schistus with a variety of petrifactions: at Thornlie* bank near Eastwood. ROSS- and CROMARTY-SHIRE. This county is bounded by Sutherlandshire on the K. and Inverness-shire on the s., but is open to both oceans, the Atlantic and German, on its other limits, and certainly there- by possesses the happiest locality for commerce and inter- nal improvement, especially as its eastern coast has a cli- mate perfectly compatible with agricultural exertions, and its western is particularly adapted for the prosecution of extensive fisheries. For the tourist also it presents every variety of hill and dale, of lake and mountain-stream ; but the travelling accommodations are not such as will tempt the luxurious or the effeminate to penetrate into its re- cesses; besides, the almost constant and veiy heavy rains, that inundate the western district from the Atlantic Ocean, are such as to preclude picturesque travelling during a great portion of the year. The mineralogist will find some subjects of research in the chalybeate and sulphur wells in different parts, especially at Strathpeffer: and the antiquary may trace a variety of Druidical temples and vitrified forts amidst its lofty mountains. Cromarty. Mr. Ross's charming walks. The Firth of Cromarty is capable of containing all the British Navy in safety. From Alness Manse fine and extensive view over the Firth of Cromarty: between the Sisters the bay opens with vast magnificence, and the town rests in much beauty at the foot of these hills. The scenery of this part is of that peculiar character that may be justly called the coun- try of Romance, of Fable, and of Superstition. Fearn, 5 m. n. from Cromarty. Ruins of Feam Abbey (1214). Near the Abbey is a square column with Saxon cha- racters upon it. Cor. Ruins of the Castles of Catboll and Lochlin. t.g. Sandwich, 3 m. e. from Fearn. A curious ancient sculptured Column, t.g. Another very handsome one lies near the shore a few miles from Mr. M'Leod's at Guihess. Cor. 2 a 2 Urrav, ROSS-SHIRE. Ubray, w. from Urquhart. Braun Castle, the elegant seat of Lord Seaforth, lias some valuable pictures, not in very good preservation, containing the celebrated picture of Mary Queen of Scots, and a bed worked by the Queen her- self. A faithful A)py of King John's Magna Charta, with the arms of the l3-l barons who headed the dispute between the King and his subjects : there are 1 besides a few old portraits in the house, t.g. Dingwall, a burgh. Ruins of the Castle. Obelisk, in the burial-ground of the Earls of Cromarty, 50 feet high. t.g. Ancient Cross. Near Foulis is the lofty mountain Be- nivas or Benivevea. Sulphurous spring not far from Ding- wall, efficacious in rheumatic and scorbutic disorders, much frequented during the summer. Scenery very grand. From Beauley to Dingwall the country opens with infinite beau- ty, and is thought to have a striking resemblance to the country about Jerusalem. Gen in thj Aird of St rath glass. The Dream, with its charming cascade; the Dream is a wild and majestic scene, well worthy the visit of the curious traveller. Cor. Tayxe, a small town. Remains of the Collegiate Ch. (1481). 10 m. w. is Dun'ilishaig, the remains of a Pictish house. At Cariblair, a sculptured stone of memorial. Another at Edwardstone, with a horse and his rider well executed. Cor. Nigg parish contains a curious Obelisk, said to have been erected by a Danish monarch in memory of three sons whom he lost here in battle. Urquhart parish. In this district is Fcrntosh, so cele- brated as the favourite place of manufacture for Highland whisky nor has it declined in fame. Coxtix parish on the \v. contains the wild lake of Ki- nallen, where there s a most celebrated echo. Glkns'ikil. The tourist, who wishes to indulge in the investigation of Highland scenery i'nd manners, may take up his abode for some days at Shiel Inn, in this district, on the road from Fort Augustus to Bernera, where he may contemplate the wildnesd of Nature in all its original sim- plicity. Kixtail is deserving a vis't from the admirer of Nature in a style of rudeness and horror ; for here is an uninhabited desert, ROSS-SHIRE. desert 20 m. long, with every mark of desolation, its only note of civilised life being an almost impassable moun- tain road, carried up by traverses until it penetrates a wild natural gap, leading the traveller into scenes of diffi- culty and dismay, but repaying him by the grandeur and novelty that every where surround him.

The boundaries of the two kingdoms recall so many ideas of feudal times and Border history, that no tourist cf any sentiment can traverse them without feeling much ani- mated interest. It is true that both the Northumbrian and Scottish hills have a wild and cold appearance; yet they are rendered agreeable as well as picturesque by the clear and sparkling streams that dash down their sides, and by the rude bridges intersecting these in the sequestered vales. Of much of this effect Roxburghshire partakes, es- pecially in that romantic district watered by the Tweed, Ti- viot, and Liddle. Here, amidst the wild scenery of haughs, burns, and braes, may be traced almost every spot hallow- ed by the traditions of Border ballads ; and in all parts of the country are numerous ruins of secluded monachism or feudal barbarism, that speak, to the eye of taste, of times long past. The most considerable of the mountains in this county are Cork Row, from which runs a tract of hills west, di- viding Scotland from England, in many places impassable. There are many ancient seats of the nobility. On its bor- ders are the debateable lands, formerly claimed by the bor- derers of each nation, but judged to the Scots by James VI. In this shire are considerable remains of Roman encamp- ments, and a Roman military way. Kelso, a market town, with a handsome bridge and grand remains of the Abbey (Dav, I. 1 128).

Makton parish. See the ruins of an old tower on the farm of Littledean, once the feudal den of the Ker family : also Scot's Hole, a deep glen, and the scene of a successful ambuscade in the Scottish wars. Hawick parish has been brought into notice by the Graphic Illustrations to Walter Scot's Poetical Effusions. The scenery round this little thriving town is pretty ; and at the distance of a mile is the Peel of Goldielands. Cavers is a mountainous district, and from its summit the prospect is so extensive that both seas may be seen. It contains many traces of ancient fortifications, evidently Roman, from the antiquities that have been dug up. Kirk Yetholm, a small village in the parish of that name, contains a curious race of people, who have been tinkers and gipsies from time immemorial, and whose tradi- tions, if collected, might afford much amusement. rare plant. Asplenium alternifolium, Alternate-leaved Spleenwort: rocks 2 m. from Kelso. SELKIRKSHIRE or SHERIFFDOM OF ETTRICK FOREST. The very name of this district excites ideas that must in- terest every tourist who possesses the slightest portion of enthusiasm or romance. It may in fact be considered as the land of the Scottish Troubadours, and will never be thought of with apathy whilst " Ettrick's Banks " and the " Flower of Yarrow" preserve their place in vocal remem- brance. Much of the scenery of this county has been re- cently brought before the public eye in the Illustrations to Scot, especially Newark Castle, the residence of Mary Scot on Yarrow's sylvan stream, the scenery around which possesses both beauty and grandeur. With the exception of its antique and rural mountain scenery, this county has indeed little to interest the tourist ; for here the botanist and mineralogist are alike without employment, at least no- thing interesting in either science has yet been discovered. Selkirk, a Corporation Town. |m. s. of the town, Haining House and beautiful lake are worthy notice, t.g. Galashiels, 5 m. n. from Selkirk. A wire bridge for foot passengers, similar to those in America, has been placed across the Gala at Galashiels. The span 111 feet, and the breadth 3 feet ; cost only twenty pounds. This the Editor believes is the first erected in Britain. 1 m. w. from Galashiels and 2 m. from Melross, at a place called Rink Hill, is the great ditch Catrail, 25 feet wide, large ramparts on each side. Upon Rink is a large round fort, with triple ditches. Yarrow parish contains St. Mary Is Loch and the Loch of the Lows, already sketched in " Scot's Illustrations," and affording amusement to the artist, as well as gratification to the epicure in the perch and pike with which they abound. STIRLINGSHIRE. This county must always be interesting from its having been from early times the seat of royalty in Scotland; a choice well justified by the amenity of the situation, cli- mate, &c. From the Castle or Palace of Stirling the greatest part of the county can be seen ; a prospect per- haps not to be surpassed either in beauty, richness, or ex- tent, by any other in existence. Newte, in his Tour, ob- serves that from its lofty battlements the royal eye then surveyed with pride the bold outlines of an unconquered kingdom. The Grampians, the Ochils, the Pentland hills, conveyed a just idea of its natural strength : the whole course of the Forth, with its tributary rivers, from their source in the Highlands, near Loch Lomond, winding through Perthshire, and washing the shores of Clackman- nan and Fife on the north, and those of Stirlingshire, Lin- lithgow and the Lothians, on tiie south, exhibit a pleasing prospect of its natural resources in fishing, and in a soil which, though in a rude climate, would not be ungrateful to the hand of cultivation. From this point of view also, (adds Newte), the imagination of a Scotchman is led, by many remembrances, to recall to mind the most important vicissitudes and scenes of action in the history of his country. The geologist will also be pleased with the in- vestigation of this county; for it affords coal and iron; and even silver, cobalt, copper and lead have been found, whilst the extensive beds of sea shells, with numerous stumps of trees in the Curse, as it is called, lead to exten- sive theories of general and particular formation. From the earliest times also, its history is interesting, com- mencing with Ossian, proceeding with the Romans, and coming down to the intestine wars of Bruce and Baliol, at Bannockburn and Falkirk.

An Explanation of the preceding Columns', tvith Observations. Column L-i-Aren of England and Wales, in Square Statute Miles, is measured upon Arrowsmith's Large Map (date 1S15-16), which being founded on the Trigonometrical Survey is little liable to future, alteration; and the Measurement of it having been accomplished by means of an actual Division of the Surface into Square Miles, scarcely admits of error as to the Area of Ehglaud and Wales; nor would the Area of each County be less accurate, supposing its detached parts to be all known. Of such irregularities Fifty-three have been taken into account in these Calculations, and those which remain undisco- vered are presumed to be of inconsiderable dimensions, though per- haps not few in number. Most of the detached parts are assessed in the County wherein they are locallv situate. To convert the English Square Mile into a measure applicable to the Maws of all civilized Nations (for the purposes of comparison), it is only requisite to reckon it as Three-fourths of the Area of a Ge- ographical Mile ; or that Four Square English Miles are equal to Three Geographical. This proportion maybe deemed exact; for supposing a Degree of Latitude (between 51 and 52 degrees) to mea- sure fi0.8(>4 Fathoms (on the authority of General Mudge), the Area of an English Square Mile compared to that of the Geographical Square Mile, is as ,~C0 to "PS six tenths. Column 1 1. Rental of Land as returned liable to the Tenants Tax, for the vear ending April 1811. See p. (i'S of the Accounts relative to the Property Tax, printed by Order of the House of Commons, 26 Februarv 1813. Column til. Amount of Tithes (from p. 71 of the same Ac- count) being 2,553,249/. per Annum, upon a Rental of 29,476,852/. or Is. Id. in the Found; but a comparison of Columns II. and III. will show how much this burden varies in the several Counties; Hampshire paying 3s. lOd. in the pound, and Sussex 3s. Sd.; Lan- cashire no more than S-^d. About Half the Tithes belong to the Parochial Clergy. The Columns II. and III. added together, show the Annual Va- lue of the Land as compared with the Area of the several Counties, supposing the Rental and Tithe to have been assessed to the full Va- lue. Several of the C unities are liable to some degree of inaccuracy in this Computation , not onlv from the detached parts before men- tioned, but also from certain Parishes extending into Two Counties, in both which cases the Assessment is made and the Tax lev'od wholly in whatever County may have bee.i pointed out bv the An- nual Land Tax Acts, manv of which contain Clans'- :. oi this kin, ; a duiLiOit Rule, depending upon the situatica of the Pctrisli Chi.i -h, APPENDIX. is prescribed by the Militia Acts, while as to County Rates and the Poor Laws, and for all the purposes of Civil Jurisdiction, the an- cient limit of the Two Counties is decisive, and attendances for Fa. rish business are doubly expensive. No fewer than 134 /Parishes are known to labour under this complicated inconvenience, whicli as well as the irregular limits of Counties (before mentioned) obviously re- quires rectification, and at the same time all Extra Parochial places should be subjected to the otherwise general Laws of the Realm. Column IV. Annual Value of Land per Square Mile; and such Mile being 640 Statute Acres, the Annual Value of the Acre may thence be deduced. In this view the Counties of Leicester and So- merset are the most fertile (Middlesex always excepted), their whole Surface averaging at 28s. and 27s. per Acre. The whole Surface of England and Wales averages at 17s. 2d. per Acre- Column V. Population, Male and Female, according to the Re- turns of 1811, exclusive of the ArmyTind Navy. Column VI. Density of Population, or Number of Persons on a Square Mile. Column VII. Proportion of Agricultural Population, "expressed in Centesimal parts. The Counties of Bedford and Hereford rank highest in this respect among the English Counties, as showing 65 Families in ICO to be " employed in and maintained by Agriculture ;" in Wales, where the Division of Labour is not carried so far, and the Artisans and Tradesmen subsidiary to Agriculture are consequently less numerous, some of the Counties exhibit a higher proportion. Column VIII. Amount of the Net Product, m the form of Rent and Tithe arising from each Family employed in Agriculture. The most obvious causes of great Suqilus Produce of this kind are, a large proportion of Pasture, Fertility of Soil, and abundance of Capital judiciously applied. The County of Northumberland is very remark- able, as producing 89/. from each Agricultural Family, which is above double the average of the other Counties. Some part of the County of Durham is indeed reckoned to the Northumberland Assessment, from the cause of inaccuracy mentioned in the preceding Observa- tions I. and III, ; but this circumstance allowed for to the utmost, Northumberland would exhibit a Surplus Produce of 8C.L per Agri- cultural Family, Durham being theretv raised to 58/. But tiie high Rents of Northumberland are said to "have required Abatement ear- lier and in a greater degree than elsewhere, when the depreciation of Agricultural Produce took place. All the Calculations herein made refer to the year 1811, as being the most recent in which both the Population and Rental were ascertained. If it were desirable to in- stitute a similar Comparison for any subsequent year, of which the Rental is procurable at the Tax ( )ffice, One and a I ialf per Cent, per Annum might be added to the Population of 1811, that having bee^ the Rate ot Increase in the preceding Ten Years.
