THE
ENGLISH
DICTIONARY,
BY
THE REVD. W. LOBSCHEID.
HE above work, which has been chiefly com- piled for the purpose of aiding students in the study of Chinese literature, comprises many characters not met with in any of the Dictionaries hitherto published.
The selection of between 8,000 and 9,000 cha- racters will make it comparatively easy to find a character without counting the strokes of the
compound figures, (minus the radical), and the addition of the Synonyms will prove a great help to such as are anxious to acquaint themselves more minutely with the character of the lan- guage.
The work contains 584 Imperial Octavo Pages and is neatly bound in cloth.
PRICE $8 per Copy.
