the same, Vols. I-XV. XIX. XX. 8vo. eleven vols. bound, and six in parts, £18. 1832-51 An imperfect copy in stock, of which Numbers are sold separately.-The entire remaining stock of this valuable Repository was destroyed by the Chinese during their destruction of the British Factories near Canton. "This work, edited by the late Dr. Morrison, contains a great variety of valuable and curious papers." MacCulloch. This valuable Repository is of great importance to Oriental scholars; its scarcity is so great that few of the public Libraries of England can boast of complete sets; on the Continent the work is vainly sought after. A bel Remusat could never get sight of it; and complains of it in his preface to his Chinese Grammar. China is a world of its own on this Globe; so much independent thought and so many wonderful achievements in Arts, Literature, and Industry, are entirely peculiar to the Chinese, that European readers will derive the greatest interest and profit from the careful study of this "Chinese Repository," which embodies the most accurate recent information on the Celestial Empire.
