NOTICES TO CORRESPONDENTS.
The curious “ Antiquarian Notices,” by the learned author of the article
“On the Nature of the Office of Mareschal,”—and the letter relating to the
compilation of a Gaelic Dictionary, will appear in our next.
The articles—“On the Utility of studying the Ancient and Foreign Lan-
guages”—“On the Origin of Whig and Tory”—“On the Detrition of Moun-
tains, &c.”—and the Review of a recent elegant Poem, transmitted by A. D.
are under consideration.
The Review of Dr Irving's Life of Buchanan has been unavoidably post-
poned.
The continuation of the “ Memorandums of a View-Hunter,”—and the
Letter relating to the proposed New Translation of the Psalms, were too late
for insertion.
The obliging 'Hints' from N-'s, and the Additional Communications from
Strila,' and from “ An unknown Friend,” have been duly received :-Also,
several Gypsey Notices, which will be carefully attended to in our next.
The paper on 'Craniology,' by ` Peter Candid,' would have appeared in our
present Number if it had not contained some improper personal allusions.
The “ Memoirs of the House of Graham,” in the shape in which they have
been sent us, have nothing moic to recommend them than the good intentions
of the author.
The paper under the title of “ Irish Literature,” which announces the
intended early publication of an “ Irish-English Dictionary," in one volume
quarto, by Edward O'Reilly,” was omitted to be noticed in another place.
From the same quarter we have received some extracts from a new work, of
which the object seems to be to prove an affinity between the Hebrew and
Irish languages; but we know not well what to make of them, and our corres-
pondent has not condescended to assist us.
