Jeotsin machinery paotography, telegraphy, and in science generally, which the rapid advance of foreign relations bas imposed upon them, are here given in calenor. Bach and every word is fully illustrated and explained, forming exer- oises for students of a most, instructive nature. Both the Court and Ponti, prouunciations are given, the accents being carefully marked on the best principle bithorto attained. The typo graphy displays the success of an attempt to make the Chinese and Englial type correspond in the size of body, thereby affecting & vast conomy of space, achieving a cleurnesa not previously attained, and dispensing with those vost margins and vacant space which have heretofore characterized Chinese publications.

To illustrate the vast soppe of the work, the following fasts are submitted for consideration.
