"An Teachdaire Gaelach o Bhealtuinn, 1829 gu Bealtuinn 1830. An la a chi 's nach fhaic a cheud Leabhar anns a bheil da theachdaire dheug. W. R. M'Phun, Publisher, Glasgow: W. Blackwood and Maclachlan and Stewart, Edinburgh. 1830." 8vo. pp. 288. This first volume was published in 12 monthly Nos. at 6d. each, and contained an English Index to the various articles, and also a Portrait of the Rev. Principal Baird. The volume contains many pieces of great merit. Among the articles of light reading, are to be found many contributions from men of wit and talent. The easy, elegant, and unassuming style of some of the Tales, well entitle them to the notice of every lover of Celtic Literature. The title of the second volume is "AN TEACHDAIRE GAELACH, o Bhealtuinn 1830 gu Bealltuinn 1881 an là a chì 's nach fhaic' an dara leabhar, anns an a bheil da theachdaire dheug. W. R. M'Phun, Publisher, Glasgow; W. Blackwood, and Maclachlan and Stewart, Edinburgh. 1881." 18mo. pp. 281. This volume was also published in 12 monthly Nos. at 6d. each. The Index is different from the former in its arrangement. The book is of a graver caste than its predecessor. A few of the subscribers declaimed against the light style of the former volume, and in order to satisfy them in as far as possible, the editor admitted more articles of a serious nature. This volume concluded the Gaelic Messenger. The Highlanders have urged the editor, the Rev. Dr. McLeod of Campsie, to resume it-they have, however, themselves to blame for its discontinuance, as had they patronised it in the manner it merited, the work would not have been stopped. BALLADS.
