Now we have come to cross-roads, I do not know which to take. I see a man in the field, who will tell us. Ho friend, which is the way to Take the left-hand road. How far, or, how many miles is it from this? Not more than seven. I was told that it was nearly eight.

Must we continue long

on this road? No, when you reach the foot of the hill, at a little bridge, you must turn to your left.

Partridges abound in the corn fields, and snipes in the bogs.

Are there any hares or foxes to be found here?

There were several hares formerly, but the greyhounds have nearly destroyed them. And we kill the fores whenever we can find them.

There is good fishing for trouts in the river that you have to pass. Is that river deep?

No. There was a ford formerly where the bridge is now. Have we any other rivers to cross, between this and ? You have a very large

Every thing appears well except flax.

I have not seen any ploughs at work since

Summer fallows are not common in this country.

Wheat is usually sown after potatoes.

These mountains towards the north have a majestic appearance. They are covered with snow during the winter: but, in summer, young cattle graze upon them. I suppose rents are high in this country. How do lands let in this place? Lands are let from thirty shillings to three' guinéas per acre, according to their quality. But every tenant on this estate has a liberty to
