The rapidity with which the first edition of these lectures was exhausted and the favour with which the hook was generally received by the public press, especially inC hina, encouraged the author to satisfy the continuing demand for it by a second edition, which was published in the year 1873. This second edition having met with unexpected success both in Europe and in A merica, a third edition is now urgently called for. In view of the results of more recent investigations, the whole has been revised and extensive additions have been made here and there, but the original form and the main substance of these lectures have undergone but little alteration. Hongkong, A ugust, 1884. E. J. E.
