"A foine day it is, sorr," said our jarvey as we took our seats on the car.

There is some point in the old Irish sarcasm that English travellers in Ireland only see one side of the country, because they travel through it on the outside car.

But to make this point tell, four people must travel on the car.

In that case they must sit two on a side, each pair facing one side only of the landscape.
It is a very different business when you travel on an outside car alone, with the driver sitting on one side of it, or with one companion only, when the driver occupies the little perch in front between the sides of the car.

When you travel thus, the outside car is the best thing in the world, after a good roadster, for taking you rapidly over a country, and enabling you to command all points of the horizon.
