It is surrounded by massive walls, which are entered by four great gates. named Ship Quay Gate, Bishop's Gate, Ferry Quay Wate and Butchers’ Gate, The bntldings and dwellings have extended beyond the Walls in very Jarge proportions of late yeara. The city stands on the att Dank of the river Boyle, The Tiver is here crossed by a wooden bridge, 1,068 feet long, the transit ending at Ferry Quay te, The water supply to the town is conveyed through great iron pipes, which are laid across this bridges the water agit from a source in the country suiticiently elevated to command the municipal centre—a ape which it was very dificult to find, owing to the city having been bulit on such a t eminence, A street of good dimens ons leads fom each one of the four gates toward the Diamond, or market place, a quad: ler area which occupies the very heart of the old town, and contains the Corporation Hall, The Cathedral of Derry stands on the summit of the hill, ‘This vener- avle ‘pile ts 114 feet in length and sixty-six fect wide. ita ig 178, feet tn bon pM A Doric column, surmounte: by a statue of the Rev.
