| QUEENSTOWN HARBOR, COUNTY CORK.- The superb harbor shown in the sketch was, according to Mr. T. O'Neill Russell, and other distinguished Irish scholars, formerly, called Lough Mahon, as the plase now senselessly called Queenstown, after a sovereign who systematically avoides Ireland, was, less than fifty years ago, called "the Cove of Cork." The harbor is approached from the ocean by a deep-water channel two miles long and one broad. |
