THE QUAY, BANGOR, COUNTY DOWN.-The accompanying view shows a portion of the Quay at Bangor, County Down, situated on the south side of the enterance to Belfast Lough an about twelve miles east-north-east of the City of Belfast, with which it has connection by railroad and steamer. Scotch authorities claim that it derives its name from the Celtic Ban-choir-White Choir-but Irish antiquarians assert that it obtains its title from a hill which rises near the town.
