Both the Court and Punti pronundations are given, the accents being carefully marked on the best principle hitherto attained. The typography displays the sucoss of an attempt to make the Chinese and English type correspond in the size of body, thereby effecting a vast economy of space, achieving a elearness not pravionsly attained, and dispensing with those vast margins and vacant spaces which have heretofore charac-. terized Chinese publications.

To illustrate the vast scope of the work the following facts are sabmitted for consideration:-- Chalmers Vocabulary contains about 16,000 TELEPHONES,

Chinese characters, and Medhurst's English and WIE, &c., &o. Chinos Dictionary about 100,000 whilst this work contains more than 50,000 English words, and upwards of 600,000, Chinese characters. Again, despite all the grammars and other elementary works as yet published, the student of this difficult language absolutely roquires er- amples to display the various applications and equivalente of different words which have one general meaning. Of these examples this work contains more than five times as many as any other Dictionary hitherto published.
