Southport, North Meoles, nine miles from 
Ormfkirk, hitherto fcarcely known, promifes 
to ee aGhite in a few years the ‘moft favoured 
{pot of fafhionable retort in the bathing-feafon, 
Situated at a great diftance below the mouth 
of the Ribbie, its waters are pure and wna- 
dulterated ; andthe mildnefs of the air, 
which ‘is die remarkable, is unqueftion- 
ably very congenial to weak and relaxed ha- 
A proof of their highly falutary eftects 
cannot be more certainly adduced than from 
the aftonithing longevity of fuch a number of 
its inhabitants. THe beach is perfe@tly fmooth 
and hard, of immenfe extent, and without 
any qui mle fands, ftones, or pools of water, 
which are often found fo very difagrecable, and 
fometimes dangerous. The tide flows fo hizh 
up the bank, that it is immaterial whether 
you go there at the ‘pring or ebb tides. To 
the lovers of botany and natural curiofities, 
tne fand-hills and the shores wil] furnith’ an 
inexhauftivle fund of amufement, from the 
great quantity of flowers, plants, and thells, 
with which they abound. As there are thir- 
teen trawl-boats, fome of which every day go 
out to fea, fifh .is very plentiful ; 3; andthe 
lovers of good eating may abundantly gratify - 
their appetites with turbot, falmon, foles, 
oyfters, fhrimps, and fometimes with the Joha 
Dory. Te dotterel likewile: frequents ‘this 
coaft early in the feafon, and afturds. great dis 
verfion to the fportfman. Exclufive of the 
trawl-boats, there is.a handfome pleafure- 
boat, which attends every day to go out to 
fea with thofe who are fond of this now 
fafhionable amufement, and which to many 
conftitutions is much more falutary than bath- 
ing. ‘The works of art are here well worth 
the attentive obfervation of the philofophic 
agriculturift. A bank on an inclined plane is 
now cartying on under the direétion of ‘the . 
indefatigable Mr. Robinfon, on the true prin- 
ciples which nature points out as the moi fe- 
cure barrier that man can ereét againft the 
encroachments of the fea, through the fpirit- 
ed exertions of the two ancient families of 
Bold and Hefketh. Several neat houfes have 
jutt been built near to the inn, and command-
