PRICE TWO DOLLARS.
The above work will shortly be published at the office of this Paper, and will contain a Direc- tory for the Ports in the large portion of Asia comprised between Penang, in the Straits Settle- ments, and the Northern Ports, including For mosa; the Treaty Ports of China and Japan; the Philippine Islands; the British Colony of Hongkong; and the Portuguese Colony of Macro, The work will also contain the Principal Treaties between European countries and the United States and the countries East of the Straits, together with conditions of Trade, and the Port, Customs, Consular, and Harbour Regulations for the Ports of China and Japan; and a description of the Ports, with the latest Trade- Statistics taken from the Reports of the Imperial Maritime Customis and other reliable sources.
The various Governments and Municipal Cor porations have been applied to for information, and all Public Bodies and Companies, Bankers, Merchants, Consuls, and Professional and other Residents, have supplied the necessary matter to ensure correctness upon forms sent for that purpose. The Naval and Military portions have been taken from the latest published official lists and revised at Head-quarters; in fact no pains have been spared to make "THE HONGKONG DIRECTORY AND HONG LIST FOR THE FAR EAST" a perfectly reliable vade mecum.
"THE HONGKONG DIRECTORY AND HONG LIST FOR THE FAR EAST" will, in order that it may circulate extensively outside this Colony, be published at a POPULAR PRICE, and can be ordered at this Office for
• TWO DOLLARS. There is not space in the compass of an ordi- nary advertisement to detail all the information introduced into the work, but it may be fairly
