The work from which these names are obtained is called Tsin- shin Tsiuen-shú or Complete Book of the Girdle- It is the Red Book of the Chinese government, and by an unusual coincidence with similar catalogues in western countries, has a red cover. It is published quarterly in four duodeci mo volumes, with inovable characters and combinations of characters, and contains the names of every officer down to magistrates chief clerks, according to the latest information possessed at the capital. An army and navy list is sometimes added in two thin volumes. According to the list, there are in the provinces, 11 governor-gene- rals, 15 governors, 19 treasurers, 18 judges, 17 literary chancellors, 184 prefects, 212 inferior prefects, and 1305 district magistrates; in all 1781. But in addition to these, the number of intendants, sub- prefects, deputy district magistrates or tso-táng, officers over town- ships, and special deputies, is more than as many more.
