to Tynwald Mount and St. John's, when the road to Ramsey turns to the left, and passes, for two miles, through a deep defile—a sort of miniature Khyber Pass-steep, lofty, barren, and desolate, and distinguished by a hermit-like solitude. In the bottom runs a small river. A short distance from the upper end is the Fall of Rhenass, a romantic and beautiful cascade, which leaps and jumps from the mountain from whence it derives its name. The fall is difficult to find, but a guide is always at hand at the foot of the hill. The road then leads through Kirk Michael, past Bishop's Court-the Bishop's palace-which must be visited. The gardens are beautiful, and the grounds most interesting. A little further on is the village of Ballaugh, then succeeds the primitive one of Sulby, followed by the lovely parish of Lezayre, through which the town of Ramsey is entered. The whole of this drive is full of interest and beauty. To the right there is a continuance of mountain scenery, the foreground filled up with a richly-cultivated country and pretty mansions, and on the left the fine champaign districts of Andreas and Jurby are spread before the eye.

Ramsey is the prettiest town in the island: it is small, but regularly built, and is situate on the margin of a bay of seven miles in extent. The country around is deeply interesting, and the boating and fishing in the bay are good. It possesses also the charm of good society.

From Ramsey there is a picturesque road, by the coast, to Douglas. The distance is sixteen miles, but the roughest we ever drove. Its ever-changing aspect, however, amply repays the fear it may inspire. We are sorry we cannot fully describe its various scenes, but our space forbids it. Immediately on leaving Ramsey southward, some exquisite scenery

is encountered, near Ballure and Ballure Bridge, and from that spot till the village of Laxey is reached every turn of the road presents a new and interesting picture. Laxey itself is a romantic place. Situate in a deep glen, it looks the perfection of solitude and quiet. To be seen aright, the traveller should alight and walk up the glen for a distance of two or three miles. On a summer evening, just when the sun's rays are beginning to leave its depths, it is a place of exquisite beauty. Thence to Douglas is a pleasant ride of seven miles, during which some beautiful views may be obtained.

One other mode of seeing the island, and we are done, and that is to take a passage on board the Ben-my-chree, some Friday morning, at nine o'clock, and before six in the evening every creek will have been explored, every headland doubled, and the whole island circumnavigated. This plan is really essential in order to give the tourist an idea of its magnificent scenery.
