For practical purposes this arrangement of the work is so complete, that a reference to itu ju -pågar enables s parson who understands Engliss to communicate effectively with ustires who understand nothing but Chiriose. In this respect the work will be found indispensable to all Europeans residing in Chius, and to the natives themselves it explains subjects fully with which very few indeed of them are perfectly acquainted: To parties resident in England and interested In China it cannot but be invaluable cocasion ally
