To illustrate the vast scope of the work the following facts arosubmitted for consideration ----- Chalmers Vocabulary santains about 16,000 Chinose charactors, and Medhurst's English and Chinose 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 requires ex- anaples to display the various applications and equivalente of different words which have one general meaning. Of these examples this work contains more in five times as many as any other Dictionary hitherto published.

For practice purposes the arrangement of the work is so complete that a reference to Its pages enables a person who understands English to commannicate effectively with natives who under. stand nothing but Chinese. In this respect the work will be found indispensable to all Europeans residing in Chins, and to the natives themselves

it

explains subjects fully with which very few indeed of there are perfectly acquainted To parties resident in England and interested in China it cannot but be invaluable occasionally.

It comprises upwards of two thousand large quarto pages.
