| CITY OF CORK.- The sketch gives a general view of the world-famed City of Cork, taken from one of the surrounding vantage points. Modern enterprise and progress have swept away many of the old landmarks. Narrow streets and dingy lanes have been widened and otherwise improved, but many are still contracted and gloomy, and present a very decided contrast to the fine thoroughfares that traverse the better portion of the city built on "the Island," formed by the two branches of the river Lee. |
