Merionethshire; and, after Bangor and Lianberris, the
partnership, arising out of a difference of opinion as to the
best mode of working the quarry, was terminated by the"
common consent of all the parties, and this is the sole
reason why this valuable property is now to be disposes

the quarries paying heavy royalties merely enrich the
landlords ; independently of being able to work the quar-

in such manner, as to obtain the greatest possible profit
from a property which, properly managed, increases 1?3
value the longer it is worked, since more Slate is conti-
