WITH THE FUNTI AND MANDARIN PRONUNCIATION.

For comprehensiveness and practical servion this Work stands unrivalled. All the new words which the Chinese have of late years been com pelled to coin to express the mumerons objects in machinery, photography, telegraphy, and in science generally, which the rapid avance of foreign relations has imposed upon them, are here given in extenso. Each and every word is

fully illustrated and explained, forming exercises

for students of a most instructivo nulure. Both the Court and Proti prenunciations are given, the accents being carefully marked on the best principle hitherto attained. The typography displays the success of an attempt to make the Chinese and English type correspond in the size of body, thereby effecting a vast economy of 2 clearness not previously space, achieving a

and vacant t space which have heretofore charac- attained, and dispousing with those vast margins ferized Chinese publications.
