Is a thriving
little market town in County Derry, thirty six
miles N. by W. from Belfast. It consists of one long and spacious street,
from which several smaller ones branch off, the principal of which are Main
and Hall Streets, and these are improving and extending rapidly. The
houses which are chiefly built of stone, and are modern buildings, have a
respectable appearance. Linen cloth is the staple trade. Petty Sessions are
held on the last Saturday of each month. A constabulary station is in the
town. The market days are Tuesday and Friday - the former for flax, pork,
horses and cattle, butter, eggs, fowl and general merchandise; and the

MAGHERAFELT
Is a
flourishing market town in the barony of Loughinsholin and County of Londonderry,
35
miles N.N.W. from Belfast, 114 miles from Dublin, and 38 miles from
Londonderry. The town, which consists of a square, from which the principal
streets radiate, was formerly the
property of the Salters' Company, but on the company selling out their
estate under the Land Purchase Act, the inhabitants, with a few exceptions,
bought out their houses. The houses are well built and have a pleasant and
improving appearance, and during the last year some good buildings have been
added to the town. The General Quarter Sessions of the
Peace are held in the new Courthouse, which is a beautiful structure. The Parish
Church (St. Swithin's) is also a beautiful edifice. The ground for erecting
the church as well as the other churches - First and Second Presbyterian,
and the Roman Catholic Chapel, was given gratuitously by the Salters'
Company. A very good
Free School called "Rainey's Foundation
School," was rebuilt a few years ago by the Salters' Company. The markets
are held every
Thursday, and the fairs every second and last Thursday of each month.

MONAGHAN
Is an
important market town, the Assize town for its
county, forty three miles S.W. by W. from Belfast. The town consists of one
principal square, and of several streets diverging from it. The County
Courthouse is a handsome building. Her Majesty's Prison is a most
substantial
building. The County Infirmary occupies an elevated situation. There is a
Fever Hospital about a quarter of a mile from the town. At the north
entrance are the Cavalry Barracks and Union Workhouse. The principal trade is
the exchange of general merchandise for agricultural produce of the
surrounding country. The Belfast, Ulster, Provincial and Hibernian Banks,
have branches here; there is also a Savings Bank. The Parish Church is a
handsome structure in the later English style of architecture, with a square
tower surmounted by a spire. The interior contains some handsome monuments
and marble tablets. There is a Presbyterian church, and the Methodists also
have churches. The Roman Catholic chapel adjoins the town. There are some
good public schools. At the end of North Street is a large Model School;
and near to it is the Great Northern Railway. There are two newspapers
published here; the Northern Standard, and the People's
Advocate. A Lunatic Asylum has been erected, capable of holding 100
patients. Petty Sessions Court held on each Tuesday. Quarter Sessions four
times and Assizes twice each year. The market days are Monday, Wednesday,
and Saturday - the first for the usual articles of consumption, the two
latter for corn. Fairs, the first Monday of every month. Population of the
town in 1881, 3,369.

MOY
AND CHARLEMONT
Moy is a small market town in County Tyrone, 49 miles S.W.
from Belfast, situate on the river Blackwater, on the road from Armagh to
Dungannon. It was designed in the year 1764, by the late Earl of Charlemont,
the proprietor, after the plan of Marengo in Italy. Two quays on the river
were erected by the Charlemont family, with extensive stores; and the
Blackwater bring navigable from Lough Neagh for lighters of sixty tons
burthen, an immediate communication is formed between Belfast and Newry, by
the Lagan and Newry Canals, and with Lough Erne by the Ulster Canal. There
is a Court House and News Room. Petty Sessions are held every second
Wednesday. In the immediate neighbourhood are several extensive linen
manufactories. The Parish Church is in the early English style, with a handsome
square tower. There are places of worship for Presbyterians, Independents,
Methodists and Roman Catholics. On an adjacent hill is Roxborough
House, the beautiful residence of Lord Charlemont, originally commenced in
1774 by his uncle, the Hon. Francis Caulfield. On the first Friday of every
month is held one of the best attended horse fairs in the North of Ireland.
Charlemont, a market town in County Armagh, divided from Moy by the
Blackwater River, over which is a neat stone bridge of five arches, built
about 1706, and rebuilt in 1859 by the two counties - Tyrone and Armagh. It
is a perfect model in style and architecture, and adds considerably to the
towns it unites together, as well as the magnificent entrance of the Earl of
Charlemont, which it immediately adjoins. The Castle was built in 1602. The
town participates with Moy in the linen manufacture. A new church was
erected in 1833, on ground given by Lord Charlemont. It is a handsome
structure, resembling in front one of the grand altars of Yorkminster. The
celebrated and pious John Wesley frequently preached in Charlemont, and
occasionally in the fort.

NEWCASTLE
A fashionable watering seaport in
the County Down, about twenty six miles from Belfast, and picturesquely situated on the
shore of Dundrum Bay, whilst behind it rise the long range of Mourne
mountains, Slieve Donard overtopping the village by 3,000 feet above the sea
level. At its foot is
Donard Lodge, the residence of the Dowager Countess Annesley, surrounded by
a large and beautiful demesne, to which the public have free access. There
are many handsome private residences, and numerous desirable lodging houses. The "Annesley Arms" is a
really first
class hotel, its proprietresses, the Misses Trowsdale, showing every care
for the comfort of visitors. Near it are the Baths, where hot,
cold, or shower can be obtained at pleasure. The "Bellevue" Hotel,
(S. Abernethy, proprietor) is a fine building, well furnished and pleasantly situated. There
are four places of worship, viz. - St. John's Church, Methodist and
Roman Catholic Chapels. Central and facing the sea is a
fine promenade, and farther on a good Chalybeate Spa, tastefully laid
out. Good railway accommodation, to and from Belfast, affords cheap and
convenient facilities for tourists, which are largely availed of during the
summer months. The railway company have erected a large and commodious
pavilion for the use of excursionists when the weather proves unfavourable.
Adjoining this stands the Railway Refreshment Rooms and Restaurant, recently
enlarged and refurnished throughout, and whose admirable cuisine is under
the capable direction of Mrs. Lawrence. Scarcely two miles distant is Tollymore Park, the
beautiful seat and
grand old demesne of the Earl Roden, whilst for miles around the scenery
varies from the wild grandeur of the Ballagh Rocks to the long expanse of
sandbanks, the favourite resort of the juvenile portion of the visitors.
Recently an excellent Golf Course has been prepared on these sandbanks by
the members of the Royal Belfast Golf Club and some local gentlemen, and on
these Links this healthy game for old and young can now be thoroughly
enjoyed. Population in 1881, 840.

NEWRY
Is an extensive market town and Parliamentary borough
in Down and Armagh Counties, fifty miles N. by Dublin, and 30 from Belfast,
comprising, within the Parliamentary boundary, 2,543 acres, of which 629 are
in the town, and 1,914 in the rural districts. It is situated near the mouth of the
Clanrye River, which discharges itself into Carlingford Bay, five miles from
the town. There are eight bridges, four of which are stone, and cross the
river which separating the Counties of Armagh and Down ; the others are iron and
wooden drawbridges across the Canal. Newry is a very ancient town. In 1175,
Maurice McLaughlin, King of Ireland, founded an abbey here, to which great
immunities and endowments were granted, and afterwards confirmed by Hugh de
Lacy, Earl of Ulster, in 1237. In 1689 the Duke of Berwick, to secure his
retreat to Dundalk from the English forces, under the command of the Duke of
Schomberg, set fire to Newry, and left it in a very destitute and ruined condition. The
northern entrance of the town is adorned with a chaste and elegant obelisk
of chiselled granite, erected in honour of the late highly-respected and
generally lamented Trevor Corry, Esq., a favourite magistrate for many
years. The Corry Arms, beautifully executed on Portland stone, appear on the
north and south recesses, and eulogistic inscriptions on black marble are
executed on the west and east sides of the monument. An ornamental miniature
park has lately been arranged round this monument. It is neatly planted with
all kinds of shrubs. Immediately opposite is a neat, capacious edifice,
known as the Orange Hall, erected by the Orangemen of the district, on a
site granted by the Marquis of Downshire, in which the meetings of that body
are held. There is also a Masonic Hall. The public buildings are - two
Protestant Churches (one of which was erected as far back as the reign of
Elizabeth), five Presbyterian Churches (two of them connected with the General Assembly),
one
Methodist Church, one Independent Chapel, and three Roman Catholic Chapels,
one Dominican Chapel, three Convents, two Court Houses, two Bridewells,
Custom House, Union Workhouse, one Diocesan College (Violet Hill),
Intermediate School, Scriptural Schools, Freemason Hall, National
Model School, six other National Schools, and three Christian Brother
Schools, Fever Hospital, Bank of Ireland, Town Hall,
and Barracks. There are several corn, flour, two weaving factories and
spinning mills, nine tan yards, three coach and car manufactories,
iron and brass foundries, and spade and shovel manufactories. The Bessbrook
and Newry Electrical Tramway is a notable means of transit which has been
recently established. The other
manufactories are linen, yarn, cotton, salt, iron, cordage, mineral water
works, &c. Extensive water-works have been constructed at Camlough, and the town has an abundant supply of a prime necessary
of life. Quarter Sessions are held here for the County Down portion of the
town, as also in Ballybot, for a portion of the County Armagh. There is a
fair on the first Monday of every month in that portion of the town, in the
County of Armagh called Ballybot; markets on Tuesdays, Thursdays and
Saturdays. Seven commodious market places have been laid out, and enclosed
in a most substantial manner by the Town Commissioners. The borough returns
one member to Parliament; constituency 2,400. The Bank of Ireland, the Belfast, the Northern, and the
Provincial Banks have branches here. The port admits vessels of 2,000 tons
burthen to Warrenpoint, five miles from the town, where the larger vessels remain,
but those drawing fifteen feet of water can go up by ship canal to the Albert
Basin, Newry. Barges ply by the Newry Canal Navigation to Lough Neagh,
thirty two miles distant inland. The Newry Navigation Company have the
management of the port and canal, the latter of which extends along the west
side of the river, and that company are at present deepening the channel so
as to admit of large ships, drawing 24 feet of water, discharging at the
Doyle's Hole, beside the Victoria Locks. The Dundalk and Newry Steam Packet Company have done much to
develop the trade of the town. A screw steamer sails twice each week from the Albert
Basin for Ardrossan, and three splendid steamers ply twice a week between
Newry and Liverpool. Newry is favoured by having railway communication with
all parts of the country. Steam colliers trade between here,
and the coal ports in England and Scotland. The principal exports are linen,
cloth, grain, provisions, cattle, eggs, and butter. The paving, lighting and
cleansing of the streets are vested in eighteen Town Commissioners, who have
also the appointment of sanitary officers. The Town Commissioners own the Gas Works, and under the
skilful management of a
committee the town is well lighted. The cost of the gas is 4s. 7d per 1,000
cubic feet. In the neighbourhood of the town there are valuable quarries,
and beautiful specimens of the highly polished marble and granite taken from
the beds were greatly admired at the Philadelphia Exhibition. The excellent granite taken from the Moore Quarries,
the property of Messrs. H. Campbell & Son, is highly appreciated. It
presents a uniformity of texture and colouring, and it has this peculiarity
- its colour, a rich grey, remains unchanged. Even the largest stones show
few flaws. The blocks of granite were granted a
very high award of merit at the Philadelphia Exhibition, 1876. The Bessbrook
Company have also granite quarries in full working order close to Newry. The
other principal quarry owners are Messrs. Samuel Cooper, R. Emerson, and
McCullough. Population in 1881, 15,044.

NEWTOWNARDS
This
populous and prosperous town, the capital of the Ards district, is situated eight Irish miles
east of Belfast,
and at the Northern extremity of a large estuary, formerly known as Lough
Cuan, or Cowan, but now called Strangford Lough. Coal vessels have
occasionally come up as far as Anderson's Bank, within about two miles of
the town, but the water in the lough being shallow, no advantage has for so
far been taken of its proximity to the sea, although the project of cutting
a canal has on several occasions been before the public. Ballylisnevan is
the ancient name of the town, which covers an extended area, and the streets
of which are generally broad and laid off with geographical regularity. In
the centre of the town is Conway Square, the largest open space in any
Ulster town. It measures 120 yards from north to south, and 90 yards from
east to west, and is edificed with commendable regularity. On the north side
stands the Market house, which was erected in 1770 by Robert Stewart, first
Marquis of Londonderry. It is in the Grecian-Doric style of architecture,
surmounted by an elegant and well proportioned cupola, at the base of which
is the town clock. Upstairs there are a public lecture room, a ball room,
and a news room, and on the ground floor are caretaker's apartments,
weighing office, fire engine station, and stalls for fleshers. At the foot of High Street,
and as near as possible to the centre of the old town, stands "The Old
Cross," which is an object of interest to the archaeologist, and which was
erected in the year 1636. It is of hewn stone, and octagonal in shape, and
besides displaying several heraldic devices, bears an almost obliterated
inscription, which sets forth that the armorial bearings of the Montgomerys,
which were "by rebels thrown down and defaced" in 1653, were "by the
citizens of this loyal borough replaced" in 1666. Not far from this are to
be seen the romantic looking and ivy clad ruins of the old Parish Church,
erected by Sir Hugh Montgomery. This is considered to be the remains of one
of the most complete past reformation churches built in Ulster prior to the
present century. It was for years used as a Court house, but at present is
the burying place of the Londonderry family. The remains of Frederick
William Robert, the fourth Marquis, were interred here in 1872, and a
handsome Celtic memorial cross, of Kingstown limestone, placed in the
building in 1875 by the Dowager Marchioness, his then wife, Elizabeth,
formerly Lady Jocelyn, daughter of the Earl of Roden. She died in the Roman
Catholic faith in 1885. Her remains lie alongside those of her husband, and
she caused to be erected the memorial cross referred to. About four miles
along the Portaferry Road in Mountstewart, the Irish residence of the noble
owner of the estate, the present Marquis of Londonderry, who was Viceroy of
Ireland from July, 1886, till September, 1889. The walled-in demesne is very
extensive, and the facade of the mansion is eminently handsome. A most
interesting ecclesiastical ruin is to be seen about a mile from the town,
where in the old cemetery of Magh Bile, or
Movilla, stand the remains of an Abbey said to have been founded about the year 550
by St. Finian, who died in 572. Several sculptured monumental tablets, one
of the oldest of which shows an Irish inscription, may be seen built in the
north wall. A new and handsome cemetery has recently been established
adjoining the old ground by the Newtownards Joint Burial Board. Excellent
building stones are obtained in Scrabo and the Glebe Quarries, and on the
top of Scrabo Hill is a striking monument, erected to the memory of Charles
Stewart, the third Marquis, well known as a distinguished cavalry officer in
the Peninsular war. The leading industries of the town and district are
weaving and embroidering for Belfast and Glasgow houses. The work comes to
agents, and is done by the weavers and sewers in their own houses. There
are, however, several public works. The Castle Gardens Mill, owned by
Messrs. George Walker & Co., Limited, employs about 600 persons, principally
young women, in spinning linen yarns and weaving heavy materials for nail
bags, hessians, girthweb, and linen tapes for saddlers, ironmongers, and
wholesale warehousemen. There are also two other large establishments in
Newtownards, namely - The Ards Weaving Co. and Glen Printing and Finishing
Co., whose works are situated on the Crawfordsburn Road, and who employ
nearly 1,000 hands engaged at damask power loom weaving, hemstitching and
finishing, plain and embroidered handkerchiefs, printing linen and muslin
goods, &c. Adjoining these buildings, there is at present being erected a
bleach green, which, when completed, is expected to employ about 200 hands.
In another part of the town, West Street, has recently been established by
Mr. T. R. Lavery, an extensive factory for the manufacturing and embroidery
of handkerchiefs. Upwards of 100 hands are employed, principally females.
The starch works and corn mill of Messrs. John Taylor & Son, now the
property of Mr. James McCullough, employ numerous men and boys. Messrs.
William Dobbin & Sons manufacture a large number of quilts annually, and
their goods are famed for superior excellence throughout the United Kingdom.
Mr. James Apperson is engaged in the manufacture of shirtings, skirtings,
and shawls, as also Mr. Wm. Kirk. Mr. John Stevenson is proprietor of a
large hosiery establishment. The nurseries of Messrs. Alexander Dickson &
Sons, the eminent florists, are at the extreme west end of the town; and Mr.
W. Sibbald Johnston's chemical bleach works are at Kiltonga, a mile along
the Belfast Road. The Newtownards Chronicle and County Down
Observer is published weekly by Mr. William Henry. Civil Bill and Licensing
Sessions are held quarterly, Land
and Equity Sessions twice a year, Petty Sessions on the second and fourth
Thursdays in each month; and the Presentment Sessions for Baronies of Lower
Ards and Lower Castlereagh, in May and December. There are excellent markets
under the management of the Town Commissioners. A fair is held on the second
Saturday of each month, and patent fairs on January 23rd, May 14th, and
September 23rd. In 1881 the population was estimated at 8,676, but it has
materially increased since the census was taken, and is now estimated to be
upwards of 10,000. In October, 1889, 527 persons were entitled to vote at an
election for Town Commissioners. The Belfast and County Down Railway has a
station at the north side of the town, and eight trains run to and from
Belfast daily. There are special late trains from Belfast on Friday and
Saturday evenings.
