pelled to coin to express the numerous objects in MAP OF THE SIKIANG or WEST machinery, photography, telegraphy, and in scienos generally, which the rapid advance of foreign rolations has imposed upon thom, ars here given in extened. Each and every word is fully illustrated and explained, forming exorci.es for students of a most instructive nature. Both the Court and Pauti pronunciations are given, the accents being carefully marked on the best principle hitherto attained. The typography displays the success of an attempt to make the Chinese and English type correspond in the size of body, thereby effecting a vast economy of space, achieving a clearness not previously attained, and dispensing with those vast margins and racant spaces which leave heretofore charap. forized Chinese
publications,
To illustrate the vast scope of the work the following facts are submitted for consideration:- Chalmers Vocabulary contains about 16,000 Chinese characters, and Medhurst's English and Chinese Dictionary about 100.000 whilst this work contains more than 50,000 English words and upwards of 600,000, Chinese "choructors Again, dospits all the grammars and other elementary works as yet published, the student of this difficult language absolutely requires ex- amples to display the various applications and equivalents of differont words which have one general meaning Of those examples this work contains more than five times as many as any other Dictionary hitherto published.
For practical purposes the arrangement of the work is so complete that a reference to its pages enables a person who understands English to communicate effectively with nativos who under- stand nothing but Chinese. In this respect the work will be found indispensable to all Europeans residing in Chips, and to the natives themselves it explains subjects fully with which very few indeed of them are perfectly acquainted. To parties resident in England and "interested in China it cannot but be invaluable occasionally.
14 comprises upwards of two thousand large quarto pagos.
