[Sup 
encouragement giver to till the ground, 
the proprietor is an abfentee lord,-and 
hence this bold (which in many places i 1s 
capable of being fertile) mountain is litle 
better than a barren rock. 
Oh, ill-fated country, and unthrifty 
people F had nature beftowed fuch a boon 
even within five times that diftance of 
_ London, it would long fince have ranked 
as one of the beauties of the world. 
Returning to Dublin from this rock by 
a different road, you travel near five 
miles upon a barren fea-fhore, and then 
arrive at a pretty village called Raheny. 
Ehence one mile farther to what is ealled - 
Clontarf Sheds, and Clontarf Town, ano- 
ther very handfome village about two 
miles from Dublin upon the fea-fhore 5 
to this place many perfons refort in the 
fammer feafon for the purpofe and benefit 
of fea-bathing ; there are a number of 
bathing- machines erected here, much upon 
the fame conftruétien as thofe ufed at 
Weymouth, but greatly inferior in point ° 
of workmanthip or beauty : and thus re- 
turn to Dublin ftom a north-eaftern ex- 
curfion, in which dire€iion I have here 
defcribed every place worthy of notice.
