Ireland is a detached island of an oblong form; is situated between Latitude 26' and 21' North, and Longitude 5q, 20' and 26' West; separated from England and Scotland by the Irish Sea, and projects further West into the Atlantic Ocean than any other portion of Europe. The length from Northeast to Southwest (which is its greatest distance) exceeds 300 miles. The average breadth is about 180 miles, and in several places less. It partakes largely of England's genial nature, and requires but common industry to make it extremely productive in all the com forts of life.
