For practical purpuses the arrangement et the work is so complete, that a reference to ita pages enables a pozson who understandy English to communicate effectively with natives who understand nothing but Chinese. In this respect the work will be found indispensable to all Europeane residing in China, and to the natives themselves it explains subjects fully with which very few indeed of them are perfectly saquainted.
