In- stead of powdered oyster-sholls the Chinesa em. play pulverised mussola - large instullus that is reared for producing paacls, their mode of inducing, the secretion of cadre I discovered and zonde known nearly an age ago). As the history of lominous painting in Chins is curious and suggestive of further ingalry it «som-worth- publishing. The Experor Tal-time [976.993 AD. and his Court were greatly puzzled by present that was forwarded to him, it being a picture tant was Juminous by night, showing a cow lying within a fanes, while by day the cow was represented as browsing outside the enolosare. His Majesty naked for au ex. Janation from his Ministers, but to them the pioture was wholly inexplicable.
