Each and every word is ** fally illustrated and explained-forming ôxercises for abusetts of a most instractive natairn. Both the Count and Panti pronunciations are given, the accents being carefully sarked on the best principle Artherto attained. The typography displays the success of an attempt to make the Chinese and English type correspond in the iso of badly, thereby efeating a vast cochony of space, achieving salaries -not previously attained, and dispensing with those vast margins and vacant spaces which have horotofore char tarized Chinese pablications. **
To illustrats the vast soopa of the work the following fasts are submitted for consideration: Chalmers Vocabulary contains about 16.000 Chinose sharacters, and Medhurst's English and Chinese Diotionary abont 100,000, whilst this work contains more than 50.000 English words, and upwards of 600,000 Chinese obire- tere. Again, despite all the grammars and. other elementary works as yet published, the student of this difioult language absolutely re- quires oxamples to display the various appli- Ratios and equivalents of different words which kave one general meaning. Of there sramplos this work contains more than fire tines 19 many as any other Dictionary bilbert pub lished.
