PRONUNCIATION
An Anglo Chinese Dictionary, published at tho Daily Press Office. Hongkong,
For comprehensiveness and practical service this Work stands unrivalled. All the now 10 words which the Chinese have of late years beon-
compelled to ocia to express the numerous ob INSURANCEjoots in machinery, photography, telegraphy, and in science generally, which the rapid advazco of foreign relations has imposed upon them, are here given in extenso. Each and every word is fully illustrated and explained, forming exercises for stridents of a most instructive nature. Bath the Court and Punti proazasiutions are given the accents being carefully marked on the best principla bitherto attained. The typography displays the success of an attempt to make the Chinesa ad Baylish type correspond in the sizo of body, thereby effecting a vast economy of spacn, achieving a clearness not previously attained and dispensing with these vast martins and vacant amazes which have heretofore okarac torized Chinese publications.
