DICTIONART,
WITH THE PUNTI AND MANDARIN PRONUNCIATION,
An Anglo Chinese Dictionary, published at the Daily Preez Ollos, Hongkong. For comprehensiveness and practical service this Work stands unrivalled. All the now words which the Chinese have of late years been compelled to soin to express the numerous ob- jects in machinery, photogmyby, talegraphy, and in science generally, which the rapid advance of foreign relations has imposed upon them, are Folly instated and explained, foraming avreises for students of a most instructive nature. Dath the Ceart and Panti pronunciations are given, the accents being carefully marked on the best principle hitherto attained. The typography displays the saccess of an attempt to make the Chinese and English type correspond in the slas of body, thoroby, effecting a vast oconomy of pass,hieving clearness not previously attained, and dispensing with those past margins and vacant spaons which have heretofors sharne- texted Chinese publications.
To illustrate the vast scope of the work, the following facts sro submitted for conalleration Chalmar Vocabulary contains about 36,000
