the Northern Lights, which is of great service in the navigation of
this perilous coast.
At Stuontian, fairs are held in May on Thursday before last
"Wednesday ; June, on Friday after third Thursday (o.s.) ; August,
for lambs, on Wednesday if 12th, if not, following Wednesday ; and
October, on Thursday before last Wednesday. In 1831 Ardnamur-
chanand Strontian had a population of 4,102.
MortvEN is an extensive district, bounded on the south-west by
the sound of Mull, on the north by Loch Sunart, and on the east
and south-east by Loch Linnhe. The country is hilly, and its
shores are partially wooded. It is principally occupied in gnuing
farms, and contains several respectable gentlemen's seats, but no
village of sufficient importance to command attention.
In concluding our brief sketch of these interesting and not wholly
uuirnportant islands, and the parallel districts on tho mainland, wo
may observe that the scenery connected with them is of a descrip-
tion not easily to be forgotten by those who have once visited them ;
it is faithfully portrayed by the incomparable Scott in his " Lord of
the Isles." Ardtornish Castle, in Morvem, so often alluded to by
the bard, is well worthy the tourist's notice; as are the interesting
remains of Aros Castle, the ancient residence of the Kings or Lords
of the Isles, and Castle Duart, formerly the residence of the M'Leans,
iu Mull, with Castle Doonan, in the district of Lismore.
in 1836 ; the accommodation is. however, deemed insufficient. A
lighthouse wad likewise raised on the dangerous rocks called
Skerryvore, which lie about sixteen miles south-west of Tiree; it
is of granite, obtained from the quarries of Mull, and is considered
one of the best and most durable specimens of this kind of archi-
tecture in Europe; the light is dioptric. Fairs are held iu May
on the Wednesday before that at Mull in August on the Monday, and
in October on the Wednesday before those in Mull. Population in
1881, 2,733.
Coll, to the north of Tiree, is rather a sterile and mountainous
island- it is fourteen miles in length, and about two and a half in
breadth, and seven miles distant from Mull. On it are the ruins of
a castle which appear to advantage from the sea. A fair is held
here in May, on the Tuesday before those in Mull. Population in

Akt>na'hukchan is chiefly known from the dangers frequently
encountered in tho navigation around its projecting point, particu-
larly in boisterous weather, when the tremendous billows of the
North Atlantic break against it with awful fury; it is a district of
considerable length, having Loch Sunart to tho south, the Atlantic
to the west, the same ocean and Loch Shiel to the north, and Ard-
gour to the east. It is sterile, but feeds large flocks of sheep, and
some cattle, and the hills are stated to be rich in minerals. Upon
the point has been erected a lighthouse by the Commissioners of
