To illustrate the vast scope of the work the following facts are submitted forosnsideration:-- Chalmers Vocabulary contains about 16.000 Chinese harnotors, and Modhurst's English
this work contains more than 50,000 English words, and upwards of 600,000 Chinese charac- ters. Again, despite all the grammar and other elementary works as yat "published, the student of this dialt language absolutely re- quires oxamples to display the various appli- oations and equivalents of different words whiol have one general meaning. Of these examples this work contains more than five times as many as any other Dictionary hitherto pub- Fished.
For practical purposes the arrangement of the work is so completo, that s reference to its [125+
pages enables person who understands English to communiosto efestivaly with natives who understand nothing but Chinese. In thisrespect the work will be found indispensable to all Road Baropeane residing in Chizas, and to the natives
