Description

Shanghai: Statistical Department of the I.G. of Customs, 1906. — ii; 43 p.郵政成語輯要While at Peking I collected some 500 expressions forming the manuscript which I have the honour to submit to you herewith ; afterwards, at Hankow and here at Lungchow, the Index was prepared and the sentences arranged and recopied in alphabetical order. All the expressions are in current use. They were picked out while carefully reading, with a Chinese teacher, through everything that so far has appeared in print concerning postal matters, such as the Chinese version of the "Postal Guide" I.G. Postal Circulars, Postal Secretary's Circulars, despatches on postal matters exchanged between the Inspectorate and the Wai-wu Pu, "Instructions to Postal Clerks," "Native Postal Hong Regulations," "Box Office Regulations," some 75 Proclamations issued by Chinese officials when new Offices were opened inland, etc. The list as it is presented now does not lay the least claim to be exhaustive: taken as a basis from which to proceed, it can be easily improved upon and enlarged.
