"Mineral Springs are very numerous : Rutty gives a list of twenty, partly chalybeate, partly sulphureous. Of the former are those of Aghalun, Coolauran, Drumcroe, Killinshanvally, Largy, and Tullyveel; of the latter, Aghnahinch, Ashwood, Derryinch, Derrylester, Killasher, Lisbleak (two springs), Meham (two springs), Owen Brewn, and Pettigo : the water of the last-named is more strongly impregnated with the mi neral than even the celebrated spring at Swanlinbar. A spring at Maguires-Bridge, and two at Drumgoon, are sulphureous, with a prevailing admixture of an alkali. Four miles north-west of Enniskillen, near Ballycassidy, are some natural caves called the Daughton : the entrance is by a large arch, 25 feet high, the roof being composed of various pieces of rock in regular order; the passage leads to a second vault of the same form, but not so high, and thence it is continued by narrow windings to a brook, which, passing through unknown recesses, discharges itself at the first entrance. At Belcou, a small distance west of Enniskillen, is a celebrated well, called Davagh Phadric, reputed the best cold bath in Ireland, and in great esteem for nervous and paralytic disorders; it discharges a large stream which turns two mills at the short distance of 150 yards."

"The Finn enters the county from the county of Monaghan, and is navigable for boats as high as Cumber Bridge, on the confines of Monaghan ; the Pettigo and the Omna [Ominey] rise near Lough Derg, in Donegal, and after uniting their streams fall into the lake Erne a mile south of the town of Pettigo ; the Scillies rises near Church-Hill and takes a southern direction to the lake. There are upwards of fifty smaller streams, all contributing to augment the waters of the great central reservoir."

"The chief tillage district is the barony of Raphoe, in which, besides potatoes, wheat, oats, and barley, flax is grown and manufactured largely. From Ballyshannon to Donegal and Killybegs, tillage is also general; and in Boylagh and Bannagh much land is now under cultivation, though formerly scarcely sufficient was tilled to supply the inhabitants with potatoes and grain. Oats and potatoes, the former chiefly for distillation, are the principal crops throughout the mountainous districts; but latterly the growth of barley and flax has been encouraged. Agriculture, as a system, is much prac tised among the resident gentry, by whom great im provements are annually made : they have formed and strenuously support farming societies, have awarded premiums, and recommended improved implements and a better rotation of crops. The effects of their exertions shew themselves in a striking manner at Gweedore, and in the baronies of Raphoe and Tyrhugh, in each of which baronies a farming society has been attended with very beneficial effects; wheat has been raised in these districts with the greatest success."

"Donegal is the most western of the three northern counties of Ireland. The surface, which is much varied, may be arranged into two great divisions of mountain and champaign. The latter, which is subdivided into two portions by the Barnesmore mountains, comprises the barony of Raphoe, and the maritime parts of that of Tyrhugh round Ballyshannon and Donegal. The mountain region, comprehending all the remainder of the county, is interspersed with fertile valleys and tracts of good land, especially in the baronies of Kilmacrenam and Ennishowen."
