WORKS PUBLISHED BY A. AND W. MACKENZIE. 



OPINIONS OF THE PRESS. 



This magazine, having a specific character, and illustrating the history 

 and. additions of the Highlands, occupies a place which no other magazine 

 can supply. The Editor may be congratulated on the success it has 

 attained. J.t has already made for itself a position in periodical literature. 

 Inverness Courier. 



The continued supply of piquant and attractive papers proves that in 

 Gaelic legendary and historical lore there is a valuable vein which will repay 

 the working, and which augurs well for the future volumes of this well-edited 

 and specially interesting periodical. Glasgow Herald. 



Evsy Scotsman and scientific inquirer into language, early literature, and 

 antiquities must wish it success. Edinburgh Daily Review. 



Ably conducted by Alexander Mackenzie, F.S.A., an enthusiastic High- 

 lander, who thoroughly understands the traditions, habits, and desires of 

 the Celtic people. It appeals to all who take an interest in matters literary, 

 scientific, or social, pertaining to the North. That it has taken hold of the 

 public mind is evident. The letterpress is of a high character .... 

 The writing is altogether vigorous and sensible, and bespeaks even a larger 

 measure of success for the Magazine. Dundee Advertiser. 



We cut and read the pages of this, the enlarged series, with a feeling of 

 admiration for the enterprise of the Editor, mingled with doubt as to the 

 wisdom of giving such a quantity of excellent matter on paper of the best 

 quality and type of the "aged portion" fount for the low price of this 

 Magazine. The Celtic is fast becoming a national periodical, and the 

 present number should tend to double its constituency. It is the best we 

 have read, and that is saying a good deal Oban Times. 



The contents are rich both as to variety of subject and quality. Its 

 success has transcended .the most hopeful expectations of its most sanguine 

 friends .... Mr. Mackenzie, the laborious Editor, exhibits tact and 

 industry of a high order in the production of a work which, to the uninitiated 

 Lowlander, might seem to have a limited basis ; but perusal will convince 

 the reader that Gaelic literature is not by any means so restricted in its 

 range as might ignorantly be supposed. Greenock Telegraph. 



The Celtic Magazine is certainly the representative journal of Scotland 

 and Scotsmen. To Gaelic-speaking people, and to those who do not speak 

 that language, it possesses attractions of a high order. Being greatly en- 

 larged and otherwise improved, the journal should receive a great accession 

 of popularity. Greenock Advertiser. 



It is now more worthy than ever of being recognised as the representative 

 literary organ of the Scottish Celts. Northern Ensign. 



With all the marks of robust strength and vigorous efficiency. Limerick 

 Reporter. 



The Editor seems determined, if possible, to improve the contents of his 

 publication. We are far from saying that they were in need of being im- 

 proved. . . . It is full of splendid articles. Invergordon Times.
