of folk-lore. I had intended only printing these under authors' names as they came in their alphabetical order, but it is an obvious advantage to be able to turn to any particular journal or proceedings of Society and ascertain what has been published there on folk-lore. I have given some instalment of this work in the present contribution, but have still many titles under A and B to conclude. Thus there are the Archæological Journal and the Journal of the Royal Archæological Institute, Archæologia Scotica, the Journals of the Asiatic Societies, &c., but I hope to quickly finish these arrears.
