 " Rarely has even the generous Court of I Neglecting the scientific framework on which 



Directors shown so much liberality and en- 

 lightenment as the Government of Bengal has 

 done in publishing Colonel Dalton's mag- 

 nificent quarto on the Ethnology of the 

 Sixty-seven Millions of the Province. . . . 

 Colonel Dalton has studied the people, their 

 physique, their customs, their beliefs, and 

 their dialects with an interest and a fulness 

 that have never been surpassed 



some 330 pages of delightful description 

 hangs, many will be content with narratives, 

 legends, and pictures of beliefs and customs, 

 which are more interesting than any novel, 

 while they form rich material for the 

 Christian missionary and the anthropological 

 student. We hope to lay some of these 

 before our readers hereafter." Friend <f
