ENGLISH VISITORS IN IRELAND.

About 1,300 persons have crossed from Holyhead to Kings-
town, by the Chester and Holyhead Company's express boat,
during the last fortnight. The two mail boats have also
brought over large numbers within the same period. About
330 " tourist tickets" have been issued since the 17th of May,
when the system came into operation. The holders are
chiefly from London, Liverpool, and Manchester; bat there
have also been visitors from all the other towns at which
these tickets are issued.

It is satisfactory and encouraging to be able to state that
the tourists are unanimous in their admiration of the lovely
and picturesque scenery they have witnessed, and they are
equally gratified at the cerniality they experience from all
persons with whom they come into communication. They
state that they are immediately recognised as strangers by
having the "Green Book" constantly in their hands, and
that the sight of it is at once a passport to kindness, atten-
tion, and good feeling from every oce. Those tourists who
have hitherto been accustomed to take their summer trips on
the Continent are loud in their praise of the liberty, freedom.
and good•humoured pleasantry they enjoy here among their
own fellow-subjects, as compared with the annoyances to
which they are perpetually subjected in foreign couno say
