Author's Preface.
Most persons whose avocations or studies are connected even remotely with Chinese subjects are wont to confess the need of a convenient manual of reference for the pur pose of determining dates according either the European or the Chinese method of computation; and a system of compari- sun for the names attributed to years, months, and other periode i also frequent
desideratum with transistors ky
and readers of Chinese literature. The com
piler of the following tables has thought, eccordingly, that their publication in a convenient folla may prove useful, although much yet remains to be done for the elabo cation of comparative calendars, eto, that should leave nothing to be desired. With the exception of the Oyclical Table of Years, and the Table of Solar Terms, both of which were
compiled

RAILW IN THE NORTH. MR. MARKHAM, in his recent report upon the Trade of Chetoo for 1868, speaks in decided though moderate language of the great advantage which the introduction of railroads into Shantung would offer. We are so familiar with the arguments already used, that, although hearty adve cates of this and other material progress we were beginning to look upon every discussion or representation of which the introduction of railways into China was the subject as of too stereotyped a cha racter to bear reproduction. Mr Mark- ham is, however, fortunate in being able

not before appeared in the voluminous folios which have been written upon the subject. "Chetoo," says Mr Markhan, "is, comparatively with other treaty ports, unfortunate in its want of easy communication with the markets that it could supply. There is no water cons munication either by river or canal lead- ing from it towards the capital of the province. The traffic coastwise is con- ducted only through the inlets of small rivers, debouching on the gulf of Pei- cbi-li; and the grent water-road of the Yellow River is distant from this port about 200 miles. Even this channel of commerce is obstructed by the tar at its mouth," across which no large junks can

omitted to notice the point of view in which the position of Chetoo would most naturally commend itself to the Chinese Government as suitable for the construc tion of an experimental railway, viz, that it would be without a rival. At no other port except perhaps Newchwang could this be asserted. Tientsin has s crowded river to bear its fleets of junks, and the railway, say the Chinese, would be a formidable perhaps futal rival. The river ports have each water and land communication which employs vast and vested interests the proprietors of which will resist the introduction of the iron roud to the death.
