THE above work, which bis heen chady con
piled for the purpose of aiding students in the study e Chinese literature, comprises many characters not met with in any of the Dictionaries hitherto published.
The selection of between 8,000 and 9,000 cha- racters will make it comparatively easy to find. a character without counting the strokes of the compound figures, (minus the radical), and the addition of the Synonyms will prove a great help to such as are anxious to acquaint themselves more minutely with the character of the lan- guage.
The work contains 584 Imperial Octavo pages, and is neatly bound in cloth.
