For pnotical purposes tits acrangement af the work is so completa, that a refarcuse to its pages ouables a person who understands English to communiste afectively with natires, who understand nothing but Chinese. In this respect the work will be found indispensable to all Europeans residing in Chin and to the natives themselves it explains subjects fully with whith Tory few indeed of them are perfectly acquainted. To parties roident in England and interested in China it sannot but be invaluable occasion- ally.
