NEWCH WANG.. The Newchwang correspondent of the N. Thiły Nema, writing on the 9th March, says
Foreverni days the weather has been anusua}- ly mild, and the tee began to look as if it might break at any moment. Yesterday and today the what has been from the north, and in blowing with tremendous forms. There is an attempt at snow, but it is completely overawed by the dust- which from its peculiar colour must have come
all the way from the plains of Mongolia. The thermometer Fabr.) from 32deg. minimum yesterday, droppail to 13deg. this a.m. No doubt the river will be open in a few days, but it is not an advantage to have 'the ics broken up too soon, as it will be doating up and down all the longer; and it will be ainiest useless for vok. sels to enter, for there are o cargoboats far landing or shipping cargo. Seroral missionaries are returned from distributing the funds of
the Relief Committee and report that the dis fress has not been exaggerated. Much good has been done, and thousands of natives who 'other- wise monet bare died of starvation ari being kept alive, bal aniortunately the matter does not end with winter and there are many points to oonai- der in regard to helping the Chinese. What are they to do? They have no and/or houses to speck of, no seed for the fature harvest: The nuimals that helped to till the ground are dead from starvation, or have been killed for human fout Whore ie the labour to come from to plough and manure the fisila? A grand problem for The Celestial Government! Easily solved! Build a railwng from Moikdes to the Yangisze or to Peking or Kirin, anywho, but bad a railway. It will pay, and meanwhile keep thousands alive, and eurich Chiou!"

An Anglo-Chinese Dictionary, published at
Daily Prass Office, Hongkong. For comprehensiveness and practical service this. Work stands unrivalled. All the new words which the Chinese bave of late years been compelled to min to express the numerous jets in maahinery, photography, telegraphy, and in science generally, which the rapid advance of formigu relations has imposed upon them, are hero pivin ini extenso. Each and every word 'is fully illustrated, and explained, forming exercises for students of most instructive nature. Both the Court wil Punti prodanciations are given the acounts being carefully marked on the best principle hitlorie atained. The typography | │▼ displays tus sueces of an attempt to make the Chinese and English type correspond in the size of body. thereby affecting a vast economy of sachiezing a clearness not previously atauol, and dispensing with those vast margins and yacnni. spaces which have heretofore charac torizer Chinese publications,
To illustrate the vast scope of the work the Following frets are submitted forerusüleration "Chalmers Verabulary contains about 16,000 China characters and Medhurst'a- English and Chinese Dietionary bont 100,000, whilst this work contains more than 30,000 English words, and upwards of 600.000 Chinono obaras- for Again, despite all the grotomars and other elementary works as yst published, the student of this difficult language absolutely ra quires exataplé to display the various appli vations and equivals of different words which are one goueral moaning. Of those esiples this work contains more than five times as sunny any other Dictionary hitherio pub lished.
For practical purposes the arrangement of the work is so complete, that'a reference to ite pages onables a person who understands English to communicate effectively with natives who understand nothing but Chinese. In this respect the work will be found indispensable to all Earopeans residing in China, and to the natives themselves it explains subjects fully with which very few indeed of thou are perfectly acquainted. To parties resident in Eagland and interested in, China it cannot but bo invaluable pocasion- ally.
It comprises upwards of two thousand large
quarto pages.
