Trubner's Oriental Record contains the fol- lowing notice of the China Review --** This e the title of a publication, the first number of which has lately reached us from Hong- kong, where it has been sat on foot sa in some respecte a continuation of Notes and Querisa on China and Japan, the extinction of which useful serial a year or two ago has been mach_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 Calcutta Reviera. The great degree of at- tention that has been bestowed of late years apon the investigation of Chinese literature, antiquities, and social developments, to any nothing of linguistio studies, has led to the acoumulation of important stores of Inform- ation, rendering some such channel of pub. livity as is now provided extremely desi able; and contributions of much interest may fairly be looked for from the members of the foreign consuler services, the Chinese Customs corps, and the missionary body, among whom a high degree of Chinese scholarship is now assiduously cultivated, and who are severally represented in the lizat number of the Review by papera highly creditable to their respective authors. In a paper on Dr. Legge's She King, by the Rev. E. J. Eitel, to which the place of honour is deservedly given, an excellent summary is presented of the chronological problems, and arguments involved in con- nexion with this important work. Some

translations from Chinese novels and plays are marked by both accuracy and freshnes the Chinese pout-statoman of the élevanth of style; and an account of the career of

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, wo ace glad to notice that "Notes" and "Queries" are destined to find a place in its pages also. It is to be hoped that this opening for contributions | Chinese subjects may evoko a similar degree of literary zeal to that which was displayed during the lifetime of its prede- cessor in the field, and that the China Review THIS OFFICE IS PREPARED TO may receive the support necessary to insure
