A daring care of suspected smuggling occurred in Manila on October the 18th, which has aroused much excitement and conjecture among customs and exciso officials. The facts A appear to be these, necording to the Manila Temes:-On Sunday night last two Japanese boats that had been brought down on the Hong. kong Maru and unloaded and were trailing astern preparatory to being tured, ashore nad pouring custom house licenses, were cut adrift and disappeared, and at the same time two Japanese disappeared from the ship and have not been heard of since. That same evening, however, two boats were seen by the police of Paranaquet, off that town, and were later found anchored close inshore. It is believed that the two Japanese ased the boats to get ashore and then abaudened them, but what they took aahore possible that they had secreted goods that they with them is purely a matter of surmise It.is wished to smaggle into the islands, and that they used the boats for this purpose,

DICTIONARY, WITH THE PUNTI AND MANDARIN PRONUNCIATION.
For comprehensiveness and practical service this Work stands anrivalled. All the new words which the Chinese have of leto years been com pelled to coin to express the numerous objects in machinery, photography, telegraphy, and in science generally, which the rapid advance of foreign relations has imposed upon them, are here given in exteneo. Each and every word is fully illustrated and explained, forming exercises for students of a most instructive nature. Both the Court and Punti pronunciations are given, the accents being carefully marked on the best principle hitherto attained. The typography displays the saccess of an attempt to make the Chinese and English type correspond in the sise of body, thereby effooting a vast economy of space, achieving a clearness not previously attained, and dispensing with those vast margina and vacant spaces which have heretofore charzo- terized Chinese publications,
To illustrate the vast scope of the work the following facts are submittedfor consideration:— Chalmers Vocabulary contains about 15,000 Chinese characters, and Medhurst's English and Chinese 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 grammare and other elementary works as yet published, the student of this difficult language absolutely requires ex amples to display the various applications and equivalents of different words which have one general meaning. Of these examples this work contains more than five times as many as nay other Dictionary hitherto published.
For practical purposes the arrangement of the work is so complete that a reference to its pages enables a person who understands English to communicate effectively with natives who under stand nothing but Chinese. In this respect the work will be found indispensable to all Europeus residing in China, and to the natives themselves explains subjects fully with which very for indeed of them are perfectly acquainted. parties resident in England and interested In-** Chins it cannot but be invaluable occasionally.
It comprises upwards of two thousand large quarto pages.
