-
in a different County, (Queen’s County,) and entirely exempt
from the Jurisdic-
-
tion of the Soveregin, is connected by a Bridge with the main
portion of the
-
Town, and ought we think, for the purpose of the Reform Bill,
to be included
-
with it. With the exception of a Distillery, a large
Flour-mill and a Tan-yard,
-
the value of property in this Suburb is low, compared with its
Population, the
-
latter being 1.600 souls, whereas the number of Voters it would
furnish would
-
not exceed 30; if these 30 be added, however, to the 353 above
mentioned, we
-
shall have a total Constituency of 383.

10.— The Limits of the Liberties of Carlow, or Districts under
the jurisdic-
-
tion of the Sovereign, are, as we have observed above, very
imperfectly known;
-
and as they are not connected in any way with the Elective
Franchise, we are
-
not by our instructions called upon to regard them in proposing
new Limits
-
for the purposes of the Reform Bill.
-
-
The following is therefore the Boundary that we
propose, and it is drawn
-
round the Town as close as it conveniently can be. It
includes, however, the
-
Suburb of Graigue, which we consider ought to be taken in,
though it is in a
-
different County, as has been already observed.
-
From the point (A) below the Town at which the
River Barrow is met
-
By the Northern Wall of the Grounds of the
House belonging to Mr.
-
Carey. Adjutant to the Carlow Militia,
Eastward, along the said Wall to
-
the point (B) at which the same meets the
Kilkenny Road; thence in a
-
straight line to the Southern corner of the
Infirmary (C); thence in a
-
straight line to the point, a little above the
Barracks, at which the River
-
Burren is joined by a small Stream (D); thence
up the said Stream and
-
across the Tullow Road (E) to the point at
which the same Stream is met
-
by a Hedge which runs down thereto from
opposite the Southern end of
-
the Plantation attached to the House on the
Baltinglass Road, which
-
belongs to Mr. Hunt, and is occupied by Mr.
Butler, and along the said
-
Hedge to the point at which the same meets the
Baltinglass Road (F);
-
thence in a straight line, in the direction of
the Cupola of the Lunatic
-
Asylum, to the point (G) at which such straight
line cuts a Road which
-
runs between the Baltinglass Road and the
Dublin Road; thence in a
-
straight line to a Gate (H) on the Eastern side
of the Dublin Road, which is
-
distant about 100 yards to the North of the
North-eastern corner of the
-
Enclosure Wall of the Lunatic Asylum; thence
along the Dublin Road
-
to the point (K) at which the same is met by
the Northern Enclosure Wall
-
of the Lunatic Asylum to the point (M) (to the
North of the principal
-
Entrance to the Lunatic Asylum) at which the
Athy Road is met by a Wall
-
which runs therefrom to a Burial Ground, and
which Wall is the Southern
-
Boundary of the Pleasure Grounds of Mr. Horton;
thence, Westward,
-
along the last-mentioned Wall, to the point (N)
at which the same meets
-
the Wall of the said Burial Ground, thence,
Northward, along the Wall
-
of the said Burial Ground, to the point at
which the same meets the River
-
Barrow (O); thence in a straight line to the
Spire of Graigue Church (P);
-
thence in a straight line to the summer-house
in Mr. Wilson’s Garden (Q);
-
Thence in a straight line to the point first
described.
