Epitep sy N. B. Dexnys, © 7 Price $6 per annum.
Issuing a Monthly Periodical devoted to Eastern subjects, on the plan.of that which, under asimila title-has proved so popular during a long series of years in G eat Britain and America, the publishers have been encouraged by the already large and constantly increasing interest felt in all parts of the civilized world with relation to China, Japan, and the adjacent Countries. With Yeking and Yedo open to travellers and officials, with the whole Empire of China accessible to explores, and the barriers hitherto so jealously maintained in Japan becoming daily weakened, numbers of new facts and much curious information is being accumulated in the note; books of individuals, who are glad to preserve in type many little particulars, for embodying which in a form accessible tothe public, no means now exist, All notes and inquiries received are carefully classified and indexed with minute care; whilst, as in the home work which has been adopted as a model, a list of books wanted, or for dis? posal relating to China or Japan is inserted free of charge.
The favourable reception which this periodical has met with lads the publishers to hope for a yet more extensive circulation. 7 The subscription has been fixed at $4 per annum. It is necessary, in order to avoid, misapprehension, to add that no communication, of whatever description, can entitle a contributor, in the case of a publication of this kind, to receive without charge copy of the paper in which it appears. alli " Notes" and Queries" are of course, inserted without Orders in England, the Continent, or the United States, may be addressed to Messrs.
