 TRUBNER'S ORIENTAL SERIES. THE FOLLOWING WORKS ARE IN PREPARATION:— One Vol., post 8vo. MANAVA-DHARMA-CASTRA: THE CODE OF MANU. Obiginal Sanskrit Text, with Critical Notes. By J. JOLLY, Ph.D., Professor of Sanskrit in the University of Wurzburg ; late Tagore Professor of Law in the University of Calcutta. The date assigned by Sir William Jones to this Code — the well-known Great Law Book of the Hindus — is 1250-500 B.C., although the rules and precepts contained in it had probably existed as tradition for countless ages before. There has been no reliable edition of the Text for Students for many years past, and it is believed, therefore, that Prof. Jolly's work will supply a want long felt. In Two Vols. , post 8vo. ALBERUNI'S INDIA: AN ACCOUNT OF ITS RELIGION, PHILOSOPHY, LITERATURE, GEOGRAPHY, CHRONOLOGY, ASTRONOMY, CUSTOMS, LAW, AND ASTROLOGY (about a.d. 1031). Translated into English. With Notes and Indices by Prof. EDWARD SACHAU, University of Berlin. Professor SACHAU, is in the press. In Two Volumes, post 8vo. MISCELLANEOUS PAPERS RELATING TO INDOCHINA. Edited by R. ROST, Ph.D., &c. &c., Librarian to the India Office. Second Series. Reprinted for the Straits Branch of the Royal Asiatic Society from the Malayan "Miscellanies," the "Transactions and Journal " of the Batavian Society," and the "Journals" of the Asiatic Society of Bengal, and the Royal Geographical and Royal Asiatic Societies.
