the Arrou islands and Timor Laut, whence it strikes West-South- 

 West to the Southernmost of the group extending from Timor, and 

 thence passes to the Java and Sumatra South Coasts as far as 

 Achin, whence it is drawn to Junk Ceylon and meets the 

 dividing line across the peninsula. The district thus included may 

 be equally well designated as " Malaya." 



The catalogue has been divided into three heads, viz. : 1 — Euro- 

 pean works ; 2 — Malay works ; and, 3 — Pamphlets, and Newspaper 

 and Magazine Articles and Notices. The present list deals only 

 with the first named, and is sub-divided as follows: — 



A.— Works relating to the Straits Settlements exclusively. 



B. — do. do. Malaya, exclusive of the Netherlands 

 Indies, Borneo, the Philippines, and 

 Moluccas. 



C. — do. do. the Netherlands East Indies exclusive 

 of Borneo. 



D. — do do. Borneo. 



E. — do. do. The Philippines and Moluccas. 



P. — Works containing Incidental Notices of Malayan coun- 

 tries. 



G-. — G-rammars, Dictionaries, &c, in Malay and European 

 languages. 



H. — Comparative Vocabularies and G-rammars, Dictionaries, 

 &c, in Malayo-Indonesian languages. 



Making a total of nearly 400 titles. 



I have placed Borneo under a separate head, because, although 

 a large portion is under Dutch control, most of the works named 

 refer to places with which British interests are anainly connected. 

 The titles under " F " may be deemed unduly few, but I have care- 

 fully excluded all works which did not seem to be worth consulting
