INPERIAL QUARTO,
ENGLISH AND CHINESE DICTIONARY,
WITH TEX PUNTI AND MANDARIN PRONUNCIATION,
An AFG30-CHINESE DICTIONARY, by the Rev. W. LOBSCHEID, published at the Daily Press Oice, Hongkong.
Roope and practical service this Work stande unrivalled. All too new worde wbish the Chinese have of late years bear-com- pelled to coin to express the numerous objecte in machinery, photography, telegraphy, and in aciense generally, whioùi thé rápid advance of foreign relations has imposed upon them, are hore given in catenar. Each and every word is fally illustrated and explained, forming exer-" cines for students of a most instructive mature. Both the Court and Punti pronunciations are given, the accents being carefully marked on the best principle hitherto attained. The typo- graphy displays the success of an attempt to make the Chinese and English type correspond n the size of body, thereby affecting a vast UGODATOT space, nebiering a dearase not previously attained, and dispensing with thoss vast margine and recent spaces which have beretofore characterized Chinese publications,
-The scope of the work is -so great, and its atilitarian purposes so complete, that a ren ference to its pages enables a person who understands English to communicate efestively with saves who understand nothing but Chi- news. In this respect the work will be found- indispensable to all Europesas residing in bin, and to the estives themselves it er- plains abjects fully, with which very few in- deed of them are perfostly acquaintel. To partien resident in England and interested in Ching it cannot bus be saraluable occasionally. It comprisce upwards of two thoumad large quarto puges.
