2nd. It must be published in numbers at intervals of not more, that 31 days, and must be printed on a sheet or sheets un- stitched.

3rd. The full title and date of publication must be printed at the top of the first page, and the whole or part of the title and the date of publication at the top of every subsequent page; and this regulation applies

to Tables of Contents and Indices.

4th. A supplement must consist wholly or in great part of matter like that of a newspaper, or of advertisements, printed on a sheet or sheets, or a piece or pieces of paper, unstitched; or wholly or in part of engravings, prints, or lithographs illustra tive of articles in the newspaper. The supplement must in every case be published with the newspaper, and must have the title and date of publication of the newspaper printed at the top of every page; or, if it consists of engravings, prints, or lithographs, at the top of every sheet or side,

Registration Fee, 8 cents.

A newspaper posted unpaid, or a packet of newspapers posted either unpaid or insufficiently paid, is treated as an unpaid or insufficiently paid book packet of the same weight.

AS REGARDS PATTERNS. They mast not be of intrinsic value. This rule excludos all articles of a saleable nature, and indeed whatever may have a value of its own, apart from its mere uso a pattern and the quantity of any material sent oster Ably as a pattern must not be so great that it can fairly be con- sidered as having on this ground an intrla Aic value.

Pattern and Sample Post to colonies and foreign countries iz restricted to bond fide trade patterns or sumples of merchandise, Goods sent for sale, or in execution of an order (however small the quantity may be), or any articles sent by one private indivi- dual to another, which are not actual patterns or samples, are not admissible..

Patterns or samples, when practicable, must be sent in covers open at the ends, and in such a manner as to be easy of examination. But samples of seeds, drugs; and such like articles, which cannot be sent in covers of this kind, but auch articles only, may be posted enclosed in boxes, or bags of linen, of other material, fastened in such a manner that they may be readily opened; or, in the case of seeds, &o,, for the United States of Amerion, Holland, and its possessions, Belgium, Denmark, Greece, Portugal and its possessions, and Switserland, in bags entirely closed, pro- vided such closed bags are transparent, so as to enable the Officers of the Post Office readily to satisfy themselves as to the nature of the contents,

There must be no writing or printing upon or in say packet except the address of the person for whom it is intended, the address of the sender, a trade mark or number, and the price of the articles,

Plostimusters are not bound to weigh any fetters or other packets for the public, but they may do so if their duty be not thereby impeded.

The practice of sealing letters passing to and from the East and West Indies, and other countries with hot climates, with wax (except such as is specially prepared), is attended with much innonvenience, and frequently with serious injury, not only to the letters go sealed but to the other letters in the mail, from the melting of the wax and adhesion of the letters to each other. The public are therefore recommended, in all such cases, to use either wafers or gum, and to advise their correspondents in the soun- tries referred to, to do the same.

are made to present a resumé in each number of the contents of the most recent works bearing on Chinese matters. Great attention is also paid to the Review department.

Notes and Replies are classified toge ther as "Notes" (head references being given, when furnished, to previous Notes or Queries), as are also those queries which, though asking for information, furnish new or unpublished details concerning the mat- ter in hand. It is desirable to make the Queries proper as brief and as much to the point as possible.

Trübner's Oriental Record contains the fol- lowing notice of the China Review gam“é This is the title of a publication, the first number of which has lately reached us from Hong. hung, where it has been sat on foot as in home respects a continuation of Notes and Queries on China and Japan, the extinction of which useful serial a year or two ago has been much regretted in Europe as well as in China. Thepresent publication, judging by the number now before us, is intended to occupy a position, as regards China and the neighbouring countries somewhat similar to that which has been filled in India by the Valoutta Review. The great degree of at- tention that has been bestowed of late years. H. Bəms upon the investigation of Chinese literature, Young Ban Antiquities, and social developments, to say nothing of linguistic studies, has led to the accumulation of important stores of inforum- ation, rendering some stel channel of pub licity as is now provided extremely desir able; and contributions of much interest may fairly be looked for from the members of the foreign consular services, the Chinese Customs corps, and the missionary body, among whom a high degree of Chiness scholarship is now assiduously cultivated, and who are severally represented in the first number of the Reviews by papers highly creditable to their respective authors. In a paper on Dr. Legge's She King, by the Rev. E. J. Eital, to which the place of honour is deservedly given, an excellent summary is presented of the chronological problems and arguments involved in con- perion with this important work. Some translations from Chinese novels and plays are marked by both accuracy and freshness of style; and an account of the career of the Chinese poet-statesman of the eleventh century, Su Tung-p'o, by Mr. E. C. Bowra, ta not only historically valuable, but is also distinguished by its literary grace. Beside notices of new books relating to China and the East, which will be a useful feature of the Review, if carried out with punctuality and detail, we are glad to notice that "Notes" and "Queries" are destined to find a place in ita pages also. It is to be Fame hoped that this opening for contributions chang on Chinese subjects may evoke a similar Kin Shan degree of literary zeal to that which was in displayed during the lifetime of its prede- sensor in the field, and that the China Review
