THE CHINESE RECORDER. THE June number of the Chinese Recor der has reached us, and, like its prede cessore, contains many interesting papers. In its editorial greeting to its subscribers
on the commencement of the second volume the courtesy and liberality of sentiment which has hitherto sa pecu larly distinguished this publication in dealing with its secular contemporaries are fully preserved, and while we in its own words "are sometimes compelled to differ" from its utterances, we can con scientiously assert that its absence of dogmatism, though accompanied by an outspoken and decided expression of opinion, on religious questions has most favourably predisposed the svcnlar public and press to examine its arguments and give them due weight.
Mr Watters, whose papers on Lao-tze: have attracted favourable attention, has again commenced a series of articles on
Buddhisin in China" which if carried out as commenced will prove a most interesting contribution to the subject, We subjoin an extract from his first chapter upon the date of its introduction which will give the general reader a fair idea of the style in which it is written. We omit the Chinese characters for the sake of brevity.
The history of Buddhism in China pre- sents attractions no less to the student of Chinese history than to the student of Bud- dhismi itself. So strange have beon ita for- tunes and so varied its career in the coun-
