But for these exceptional circunıstances, the proportion of " Original" works would have beon much the same for both the past and preceding years. A scusible diminution is observable under the lead of " Translations," though mainly confined to religious tracts and others of cphemeral interest, But the inactivity of the cducated classes in bringing out good translations and adaptations of English anthors is much to be regretted, because this class of productions indicates the first stage of progress, and is a preliminary to fresh literary effort. The activity noticed last year in regard to the publications in Indian classics docs not also appenr to have been sustained during the period under review. 4. Though there was a great fluctuation under the head of " Republications" a9 regards quantity, owing to the enactment of a new legislativc mcasure, yet the following information as regards their variation in numbers, and the size of the editions issued of the more noteworthy reprints, may not be out of place here :- Size..

TOTAL 107 35 205 1. 21 7 339 The above figures call for no remark except that the decrease under the head of "General Literature" in the vernaculars is smaller than I apprehended, considering that no verbatim re. priuts were received for registration during the latter half of the year. 5. The subjoined remarks observe the order of the sixteen subjects pamed in the tabular statements appended :- Art.--This head is as poorly represented as ever, and will be so as long as native artizans and artists learn their trades or practical art not from books, but orally from their parents or masters direct or instinctively in the workshop, which is their practising school, chiefly owing to the inability of the great bulk of them to read and write. The only noteworthy English work registered this year is a book of elementary lessons in agriculture published by the Educational Department for the use of schools and for translation into the vernacular languages of Southern India. A short catechism on agriculture in Tamil also appears this year. The Telugu people of Cuddapah and adjoining districts being interested in the cultivation of the indigo plant and the manufacture and sale of this dye, a Telugu manual on Indigo appears to supply tbeir want for the first time with full information as to its sale and exportatiou to Europe and the various ways of dying blue cloth and wool, with tables of prices and other particulars for the use of native planters and dealers. This is followed by two less ambitious pamphlets in plain Tamil and Telugu on Indigo. planting and manufacture, and the Telugu edition contains some illustrations. There are two books in this group on Indian music, one of which is in Telugu, remarkable as being the production of the senior Raja of Venkatagiri, C.S.I. It is entitled the "Sabharanjani" and deals with jects connected with native music and taste and poetical sentiments as a subject of rhetoric and on the art of singing and dancing, both Hindu and Muhammadan, describing the musical note, tunes, and difference of measures and beats for keeping time and producing harmony in both modes of singing, as well as the motions of fingers and hands and peculiar gestures of women in dancing. The other book on music is also a Telugu publication by an expert, forming a senior class book for music schools and teachers of the art. A small band-book of gymnastics in Telugu for schools, and an English compilation on cookery, containing camp recipes for camp people as to what to tell their cooks to prepare, belong to this class of new publications. Under indigenous art may be mentioned the Telugu book " Srikrishna Vastu Sastra,” treating of architecture and the seasons favourable for building from the standpoint of the Indian astro. loger, and a small leaflet in Tamil treating of magic and legerdemain, with details of little interest, seems to be all that received the attention of any Tamil writer during the year under reporte ·TUBLICATIONS ISSUED AND IIGISTERED IN 189 3 büyreply:-The saucity of Lionraphical worho is striling this year.

The Walıya. lam linguam has begun to produce its first novels in prou, and ono of tacac on the European malol called "lolulilla," which is from the pen of Ne. Chand. Meson, of the Judicial Mornico to this t'rroidency, d-scrres special mention as containing an interesting de mention of Maliyalım mxiety. The plot relatrs to a Nair girl in lore with a graduate of the Malrau University and whing a manat arainst the proposal of her relatives, who wantel ber allianco with a richa Nambadri, amonling to curtum in Malabor. This novel has been recently translated into Englisb. Lut for the part which wems to loiran out a little too much, thus first attempt at a trork of fiction in Malayalam may be taken as a fair molel, both as tegana manner and matter, lig the younger peneration of writers in the Tamil and Telugu country who, from their acquaintance with English novels and intimate koorlede of the inner life of their countrymen and countrywamca might, if they have the repaisite leiture, dilinquish themscires by contributing to the Bight literature of their coustry. The story of Slakespeare's "kin: lear"in Telugu ond “Minaluli" in Malayalam are also interesting as the fruit of the contact of the native mind with weatern learning and influence. The romantic story based on a lloricul tradition concurning" Chandrabasa,"the forturate bog, allordo in Telugu a picture of Indian lifa during the historical period of this country, and is a readable and idiomastically written narative by a young man, and the Aryan anecdote by Mr. Siva Sankara Pandya are intended to illustrate certain ethical and religious maxims. In Instnry the following vorhs in English call for prominent police as bring something out of the usual groose of manuals, hand-books, and companions. Mr. J II. Stone's useful sketch of the litory of ancient institations, and the early listory of some Coglush 10stitutions in the form of notes anil reference to Sir IIenry Maine's work, terves as a basis on which to build up some know. ledge of the growth of Aryan institatious; and Mr. Adam's interesting and suggestise raper on De ·4 PUBLICATIONS ISSUED AND REGISTERED IN 1890. the history of the village community. of the Chingloput District, as a part of the 'Tamil country called the Carnatic, enlls attention to the communal rights and agrarian system, or land latys of the Mirasi villages. This latter paper forms a part of the proceedings of the "Maine Ilistorical Society," newly started in Madras with the object of promoting the study of history and the institutions of India and for the discussion of constitutional history and political economy especi. ally in their bearing in this country, as well as for stimulating such uscful pursuits as historical research and the study of local history and the production of short historical descriptions of districts or short sketches based on the local chronicles of nativo chiefgaa field in which the younger generation of educated natives can do some useful original work owing to their local knowledge, and their appreciation of everything Indian. A lecture on the civilizntion of Alexandria of fifteen hundred years ngo, compared with the civilization of India of to-day, and a sketch of Gon as it was and as it is as the capital of Portuguese in India, with an account of St. Francis Xavier, with whose tomb an imposing ceremony was held at the close of 1890, are also interesting publications. A new elementary “History of British India," compile:1 by the Rev. Messrs. Sell and Lawrence, of the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge, is a desirable introduction to the histories now in use in the lower forms of secondary schools. There appenrs in this group an account in Tamil of Bhoja Rajah and the cruel treatment he received at the hands of his uncle, who coveted the throne of his ancestors, which reads more like a romance; and there is also a prose account of the early feuds at Hastinapur between the Pandu and Kourava princes and of a curious exhibition of arms in their early rivalry and other events that followed. Last of all may be mentioned a curious leaflet, in verse, illustrative of the tendency to cram the mere names and dates of history for reproduction in the examination room, and the extent to which memory is cultivated at the expense of the other faculties. It is entitled "Indian History in English Verse" and professes to contain a few minutes' interview with Indian history. Language.--A larger number of works appeared under this head in the catalogues of 1890 than in those of the previous year. Besides the clementary reading books, primers, grammars, keys, note-books, vocabularies and other belps to the study of language, the following Iodian works may be specially noted: A new edition of the standard Sanskrit grammar "Koumudi," with Telugu explanation of each rule; a fortnightly journal in Sanskrit devoted to subjects con. nected with that language;" Ilakana Vilakkam," an ancient treatise on that part of Tamil gram. mar which treats of the rules of rhetoric, and those for amatory verses, edited by Mr. Damodara Pillai; and two rare lexicons in Tamil verse hitherto thought to bave been lost, riz., “Urichol Nikandu," or a collection of Tamil epithets of gods and men and all words expressive of abstract qualities, and "Pingala Nikandu,” treating of melody and rules for ornate poetry, dramatic com. position and the like in Tamil, both being edited, with a Tamil commentary, by Pundit Sivam Pillai, of Coimbatore; a new edition of the “ Tamil Manual," in part with English headings and commentary; a new "Grammar of the Malayalam Language”; a collection of Arabic Idioms and Colloquial Sentences; and a book of Selections in Persian Prose Literature. Besides the usual text books for the University examinations containing portions of English and Indian classics, with scholarly annotations and others, bad and indifferent, there appear, under the head of" Language's Mr. Barrow's " Readings in English Poetry and Prose "and Dr. Bradshaw's improved edition of his “English Anthology," the special feature of these books being their suitability to native students as an introduction to the poetical and prose literature of England. In Law the usual activity of publishers and compilers seems to have been maintained during the year, showing the steady demand for this class of literature among students and native legal practitioners and officials and others not versed in law. The more noteworthy and costly books in English are the revised edition of Mr. Mayne's "Commentary on the Penal Code” and the authorised edition of the" Standing Orders of the Revenue Board." A new series of the "Law Journal," under the title of the "Indian Jurist," also goes to swell the library of the law student. Of the indigenous works, a book of extracts from Manu's Code on matters of conduct, The Pyavahara Marga Darsani, or the " Mirror of Law” in Malayalam, Pyavahara Dipika, a similar work in Canarese, Parasara Smriti in Sanskrit, with Madhava Chariya's commentary and a Tamil translation containing the Hindu law of the present age, and Goutama Dharma Sastra, on expiatory ceremonies for offences, more intended for Hindu priests than for the criminal lawyer, stand side by side with an exposition in Telugu by a zemindar of the modern Revenue Code applicable to zemindari estates and the tenantry therein, and the Villaye Munsif's Code in Tamil and Telugu for the use of petty village magistrates in matters of petty suits, village panchayat, petty assaults, abuses and thefts and cattle trespass, besides revenue questions conuected with village management, Medicine. The medical works received are of all kinds relating to allopathic and homeopathic systems of the west as well as to Hindu aud Unani systems of the east.

The other publications in this group treat of Astrology and Divioation, ·.6 PUBLICATIONS ISSUED AND JUEGISTERED IN 1890. Travel and Toyage.--Strictly speaking, there is no new woric to record under this licad, and this is attributable to the fact that the natives of this part of India have little love for foreign travel. A Telugu prose version of an intersting old travelbook in Sanskrit verso by a South Indian poct, called “ Visvngupadarsam " or the" Kaleidoscope, or the " Kaleidoscope,” describes a journey by two supernatural travellers from Upper India to Cape Comorin, and contains some clever and humourous remarks, one of them praising and the other abusing the places and people surveyed by English them from above; and the other work in this group is a reprint of Emerson's " Tracts," or comments on his visit to England descriptive of inen and things seen by him during his journey. 6. Of the total number of publications of the period under review, 209 are for educational purposes and the other 813 belong to " General Literature." 7. No less than 229 works were registered for copyright during the year of, report, of which only three were Government publications. 8. Generally speaking, the above analysis of the year's publications seems to show some improvement in point of quality and tone, but any one comparing the intellectual activity of Upper India with that of this Presidency cannot l»ut be struck with the poverty of vernacular works out here under the important heads of "Art and Industry," " Biography," " History and Politics," "Drama and Fiction" treating of the nobler parts of human nature, " Secular Science," and "Travels." Much cannot be expected or clone until a growing class of readers beyin As the taste for to create a market for books, since want of readers mcans want of demand. the right sort and a desire for literary pursuits are developed on the part of "Tolucated India, reading of or, in other words, as the college-training of the graduates of the University and their home culture in after-life come into close relation and supplement one another more than they have ever yet done, and as the advance of technical and primary education is stimulated everywhere, we may hope that native authorship will spring up from the ranks of the younger seneration of writers and bring into existence at no distant date works written in forvible and elegant prose style in the vernaculars, such as to interest and edify native readers and supply what is now pointed to in reproachful terms as a desideratum in the languages of the people, on subjects with which pundits of a generation or two old cannot be expected to deal. 9. In the report for 1889, I alluded to cases of non-delivery of books for registration. Some more cases of neglect of printers to deliver what they issued from their presses for sale have since been detected, besides several attempts to infringe the copyright of Government in the old and new series of readers of the Educational Department. The dilliculties in the way of tracing such evasion or violation of the link to the right parties are considerable; nor is it easy to secure reliable witnesses to maintain a prosecution or the help of the Police, who treat the offences under the Registration Act as " non-cognisable." The real ollenders are not often to be found, and the vendors of pirated editions of books not delivered for registration generally profess to act as the mere agents of some one else or give fictitious names of persons and places of business that do not exist. The amending Act I of 1890, abrogating the pic. vision for payment of books presented for registration, has no doubt put ar end to some frauds and to the abuse of the payment system, but wbether it will check the tendency of printers and publishers to neglect to deliver their publications in the absence of the best inducement in the shape of money now withheld, it is perbaps too soon to judge. 10. There is yet another important event of the year to notice before concluding this report. I refer to the new departure made in 1890 in the policy of Government with regard to the use of the registered publications deposited in the library of this office from 1967. Immediately before the passing of the amending Act, X of 1890, the attention of the Local Government was drawn to the expediency of constituting the library of registered books as a reference library open to the public in accordance with section 1l of Act XXV of 1867. The requisite arrangements for its use by the public and the necessary rules and regulations for the admission of persons to the reading-room have been sanctioned by Government, and a special catalogue to enable visitors or readers of every grade of intelligence to find what works they want, has been under active preparation, and engaged most of my attention and the time of my office establishment during the latter half of 1890-91, the collection catalogued consisting of pearly 17,000 books, pamphlets and periodicals. The system of cataloguing adopted after some consideration and discussion is the classification of the entire stock in the first instance according to their subject matter under the sixteen heads prescribed by the Government of India (for compiling the quarterly catalogue, and the annual analysis of registered publications); and the next step ordered is the re-arrangement of the classified lists in each subject and in each language, in the alphabetical or dictionary form, thereby giving information to the reader as to what books are in the library, with refereuce to the title and the numler in e' ·TOALICATIONS ISSUED ASD REGISTERED IN 180 the office catalisque, tho name of the author or edilor, and the rear of publicalion, to enable liim to obtain reulily aor werk of which he know one or inape of thoro prticular and which he vislier to consult. This trots of compiling the new catalogue in one alphalet at a simple and fra ly iwles, withe at which the reference library will be of littlo use to the public, has entailed An emlarnassing amount of copying and re-copying and ent considerably more time than tras cxpired; and the manuscript has leeu finally sent to the free as curapletely as the nxigen. cier of time and cost muld allox, and the library will be ofwel to the public as soon as the mtalizuese printal.

I bare the honour to submit the following report on the condition and progress of the Vernacular and other literature in the Bombay Presideacy in the year 1890:- 2. The total number of pablications registered in 1890 under Act XXV of 1867 was 2,011, or 1,419 books and C23 issues of periodicals. Of the books, 207 were fint and subsequent edi. tions of onginal worke, 108 republications, and 201 translations. The periodicals were mostly original, only a fos being repablications. The so-called origioal works were, otrictly speaking, embodiment of old ideas in Dew forms, looks really original in conception belog rare. A large majority of these books are school compilations on various subjects, dramas, and novels. The total pamber of books may again lo divided according to languages into 81 English, 301 Marathi, 333 Gajaráti, 220 in twelve other Indian languages, such as Urdu, Kadaresc, Ilındı, Lc., 119 ia Saoskat, l'ersiao and other classical languages, sod 178 polyglot works ·14 PUBLICATIONS ISSUED AND REGISTERED IN 1890. 3. Arts.- Under Arts, there were 27 publications, the subjects being cookery, perfumery, music, games of cards and cricket, drill and other military tactics, gardening and spirit-distil. ling. The books on cookery and perfumery were in dlaráthi, those on music and games in Gujaráti, those on military tactics in Hindi, and the one on the manufacture of sp:rit was in English. This distribution of the subjects among the different languages affords an amusing indes of the tastes and predilections of the people who speak them. 4. Biography.—The number of biographical books though small is encouraging, and shows that the vative writers are awaking to a sense of the importance and usefulness of this kind of literature. Short sketches of the lives of Dr. Jonathan Swift, Abraham Lincoln, Sir Isaac Newton, Dr. Goldsmith, and Charles Bradlaugh were published in Marathi-evidently all of them are translations. The Life of Abraham Lincoln is written by Mr. Vinayak Kond. dev Oka, and is, like his other works, a very readable book for its style and sentiments. The proof-shects of this book, says the writer, were revised by Mr. Justice K. T. Telany, and if there be anything which is interesting and charming in the book, it is from the pen of that honourable learned gentleman. The Life of Charles Brailangh is a reprint from the Kesari newspaper. It gives within a short compass all the principal incidents of the life of that remarkable man. In Gujaráti the Charitramuli, Biographies of the Royal Princes of Gujarát and Káthiáwár, Volume 1, by Nagindás Manchhärám, is a good quarto of 308 pages. It contains the biographies of sixteen princes with their lithographic portraits, executed by Indian artists, and is a costly book, being priced at R25. The biographier admits in the preface that he has done nothing beyond depicting the bright side of the picture, leaving the work of shorting the other side to other hands. The book is well written and well got up. There was another Gujarati book of the same kind, but giving the lives of the leading men of the Gujarat gentry. Its title is the Gujardt Portrait Gallery, being a collection of the portraits and biographical sketches of leading men in Gujarát. Its author, Keshavlul Harivithaldás, proprietor of the Satya Takla, a Gujaráti newspaper, presented its copies to his constituents free of charge. This book is also adulatory rather than critical in its character. It is, however, a good record of private lives and deserves encouragement. The Life of Bholundth Súrábhái, loy Krishnaráv Bholánáth, gives a good account of the development of the theistic faith achieved in Gujarat under the auspices of the Prárthavá Samáj. Blioláváth Sárábhái was a high judicial oliicer under the British Government in Gujarát, and having been in his early life a derout vorshipper of idols, became in after-life a vigorous social and religious reformer and an admirer of pure worship and a hater of idolatry. 5. Dramas. --The light literature of the year under report comprises 66 dramas and 86 novels, most of which are written in Marathi and Gujarati, the principal vernaculars of this Presidency. Buth of these varieties of literature are based either on historical, mythological or private life incidents, the difference between the two being only that of forin. Some dramas, particularly those based on mythological incidents, have a large admixture of poetical passages and are called Sangita dramas, or operas. As observed in previous reports, tliese dramas and novels, as they are published from year to year, present the same or nearly the same facts, in different garbs and with different names. The subject-matter is pretty much the same with very rare exceptions. Among the new Maráthi dramatic works may be mentioned the Godavari, or the Unfortunate Daughter-in-law, by Moro Ganesh Londhe, dramatising the thousand-and one annoyances to which the much-abused mother-in-law subjects her daughter-in-law in a Hindu household; the Jarathodváha Nátak, by Purushottam Bháskar Dongre, thich depicts the evil consequences of old men marrying young girls; the Shrimatta Tidlambana Nátak, by Náráyan Ganesh Mandlik, in which Dámájiráv, a ricla man, is represented as boasting of having seduced several married women even with the sanction of their husbands, simply by means of money, which is shown to be a prolific source of miseries in this world ; the Shiva Digvijaya athavá Tarun Shiváji Nátak, a historical drama giving the incidents of the life of Shiváji, the founder of the Marátha Empire, mainly taken from Grant Duff's History of the Maratbás; the Mahárájá Pratápsinha, by Gobind Krishna Tilak, a good tragic drama, interesting and touching in places, the incidents delineated in which somewhat resemble those alleged to have occurred at Kolhápur in connection with that prince who, having been insane, was removed to the Ahmednagar Jail, where he died; and, lastly, the Parikshúsatra, or Mánavi Popat Mainá Nátak, by Madhab Náráyan Pátankar, in which a plucked candidate for a University esamination accuses University Examiners of carelessness, partiality, and even corruption, censures Government for neglecting to redress popular grievances, and for administering the couutry with selfish motives, and denounces social reformers as being misled by overzeal and hastiness. The last-mentioned book, evidently the production of a discontented candidate, is very impudent and childish in places, and is an example of the abuse of the liberty of speech enjoyed ·TUPCATIONS ISSUED AND REGISTERED IS 180 16 under the Bntich Corernment.

Alidinn Somji Liláni, a merchant of Bombay, who $184 for five yeart at Zanzibar, har produced, for the benefit of Gujaráti-speaking traders doing business on the Zanzibar and nigh. bouring coasts, A Guide to the Serdhili language, in Gujarati characters, with Engli-h and Gujaráti translations. The Swahili is said to be one of tho moit popular languages spoken in Africa, but to be without its own alphabet. Dr. Edward Steer's "lland-b..ok on Swalili" and « The Swahili Esercises were of much use in lenching the author thin language and also in cnabling him to produce his "Guide" of that langunge. l'he Students' Sanskril-English Dictionary, by Viiman Shivrim Apte, M..., Principal and Professor of Sanskrit, Fergusson College, Poona, was another valuable worl: publieb last year. The cbief features of this dictionary nrc that it gives quotations and refrrences to the peculiar and noteworthy meanings of words, and explains the more important technical terms, particularly in Nyáya Alankara, Grammar, &c. At the end of the book are given three appendices, one treating of Sanskrit Prosody and the other two of the important literary and geographical names in the ancient history of Indin. The Sepher Ya Arall Hadiebash, or a Compendium of Ilebrew Dictionary, by Ezekiel Jacob Rahamim, Part I, is intended to materially aid a student in ncquiring a knowledge of llebrew, Chaldee and Talmadic dialcots. It is in Hebrew, Arabic and English languages, 9. Law.--Among the law books the following may be noticed :-- Enrily in Gujarati, by Dullabhji Dharamsi Ved, who is Sar Nyáyádhisha in Morri State. This book is the first of its kind in Gujarati and has been liberally supported by His Highness Málárajú Thakore Sáheb of Morvi. The City of Bombay Alunicipal Act, 1883, with a commentary and an index, was published by Basil Scott and Lindesay J. Robertson, Barristers-at-Law. Evidently the value of this English book, which lies in the commentary and the index, will be appreciated by the Bombay rate-payers and the advocates and pleaders. The remaining publications under this heading are republications and translations. 10. Medicine - There were medical works on the European as roll as the Indian system of medicine, those of the latter description being more numerous. The Taidyajiranam of Lolimbaráj, with the commentary of Sukhanand in Sanskrit, with a Hindi translation by Pandit Ravidatta, was published by Pandit Hariprasád. The work is kumourous, and the author says that no person who is not fond of women, and who is iguorant of the science of rhetoric, can appreciate its worth. Remedies are prescribed in this book for various diseases, and the peculiar feature of the work is that it is addressed to a woman, and references are often made to women's beauty and power of fascination. The translation and original of the Ashtánga Hridaya of Vágbbatta, published by Gangá Vishnu, is another Sanskrit and Hindi medical work of the year which treats of the native ·TEBLICATIONS ISCED AND REGISTERED IN 1600 17 melical oystem.

Tlie Librarian points out that the pumber Library during the year 1890 of books received in the Library was much smaller than in the previous sesr, cbielly owing to the operation of the new Registration Act, which excludes new editions, published without any change, from the necessity of registration 6 ·30 PUBLICATIONS ISSUED AND REGISTERED IN 1890. > 3. Few books of any great mark appear to have been brought out during the year as before religious works occupying an important place; and in that sphere the followers of the doctrines of Vaishnavism have been among the most active. Among works of this class may be noticed, under the head of Biography, the “Life of Narottam,” whom Pundit Hara Prasad describes as “The St. Paul of Vaishnavism," on the ground of his having devoted his life to the organisation of that community and its doctrines. Another work to the same purpose is the" Life of Prabodhananda Sarasvati," who again bears a resemblance to St. Paul, in that, after having opposed and reviled the teaching of Chaitanya, he was at length, after seeing him, converted to his doctrine. The “ Narottama" just mentioned is the author of the Premabhakti Chandrika, also republished during the year. This work, though short, is described as presenting a concise summary of Vaishnavite doctrine, in a form wbich to some extent suggests the “beatific vision of contemporary European mystics. Another republished work illustrates the process by which the classical texts are edited in the interests of particular creeds. The Ramarasayana is based on the story of the Ramayana, but omits everything such as the worship of Durga, which might offend a Vaishnava ; while it also introduces new matter likely to be acceptable to that sect. Orthodox Hinduism has treated the Ramayana in a different fashion, by regarding it as the vehicle and expression of the spiritual ideas contained in the Vedas, the Mahabharata being in like manner regarded as the embodiment of their ritualistic doctrine. This view of the sacred text finds expression in the Vishvanath Ramayana, an anonymous publication of the year. A new edition of the Rama Charita danas, or the Hindi Ramayana, by Tulsi Das, which is said to have preserved India two centuries ago from falling into Tantric mysticism, bas been brought out by the labour of Mr. G. A. Grierson, C.S., and the enterprise of the owner of a private press at Bankipore. The activity of the orthodox Hindu is shown by the continued publication, in large numbers of the Vedas, Smritis, Puranas and other standard Sanskrit texts. No original work of any importance was, however, brought out by the School of Hindu revivalists. The discovery in one of the libraries of Bombay of Nyaya Pindu, a celebrated treatise on Buddhist logic, together with its commentary, is said to have created great interest among learned men all over the world, as being the solitary instance of a Buddhist work found in the continent of India. The text has been edited by Professor Peterson of Bombay, who discovered it, and has been published by the Asiatic Society of Bengal. One of the great obstacles to missionary effort in Bengal has been said to be the unidiomatic and often grotesque style of the Bengali translation of the Bible, completed some fifty years ago. A new translation of the Bible, or of parts of it, which shall be free from these defects, is apparently to be undertaken. 4. Members of the Kayastha caste have long attempted to prove their identity with the Kshatriyas, and have formed an association with that object. A similar attempt is now being made in the interests of the Sonarbania and Jogi castes, which occupy a position in Hindu Society much lower than their advocates declare to be due to them. Tbis claim has resulted in the publication of the Ballala Charita, the interest of which for the general reader lies in the complete account which it gives of the origin of the various castes in Bengal, and in the many historical questions which it offers for solution. As the Librarian remarks, the present caste-agitation will thoroughly justify itself if it leads to the study and settlement of doubtful historical problem s. 5. A new novelist has appeared in the person of Babu Purna Chandra Gupta, author of a tale called Chhaya, an account of which is given in the report. Several other works of fiction have been published, but none of any great importance, nor have the well known writers of the day contributed any new stories. 6. School-books continue to be poured forth in an unceasing stream, but many of them, perhaps the majority, are worthless productions; badly-printed on bad paper, in questionable taste, often aggressively hostile to the followers of other religions, and objectionable in their political tonesuch is the account of them given by the Librarian in his report. These facts set in a stroog light the value of the services rendered to Goveroment and to education by the Central Test Book Committee, whose function it is to examine all school-books published in Bengal, and to reject those that on any ground are objectionable. The arduous character of the services rendered by the Committee, of which Pundit Hara Prasad Sastri is a distinguished member, may be gathered from the fact that the anthorised list of text-books published last year for the guidance of schools contained the names of 637 works, being all that were approved out of a total dumber of about 1,600 books examined by the Committee.

The author of Naruto -Falésa has also ontled a liography of Shrinbé: Achárya, which has not yet been muf ·32 PUBTICATIONS ISSUED AND REGISTERED IN 189). lisbed. He has composed a large number of songs which contain his signature, sometimes as Narahari Dás and sometimes as Ghanashyáma Dás, because he was known by both these names. Though he bas introduced some marvels and miracles, his biograpby is written in a sober and earnest style and in an appreciative spirit. The success of the great dacoit Tantia Bhil, and the manner in which he was brought to justice, created an interest in that remarkable man in many quarters in Bengal, and two works--one in Bengali and the other in English-were written to give an account of his life. The Bengali fork is written by Babu Priya Náth Mukharji, an Inspector of the Calcutta Police, who bas often distinguished himself in detective work. These works represent Tantia as a young man of high spirit, who was goaded by tyranny and oppression to betake himself to the forest and to become a scourge to bis oppressors. There he lived, like Robin Hood of old, by plundering the rich and relieving the poor. Poor boys still sing of the Tanti Mamu, who often entertained them with presents of fruit and sweetmeats. Indeed, the rapidity with which he conducted bis dacoities, the dexterity with which he evaded pursuit, and the influence he exercised over not only his own followers, but also the common people of his district, show that, properly guided, his talents might have been utilised in the interests of peace and good government. The next work on the subjert of biography is one of Dr. Duff, the great Scotch Missionary, who a generation ago exercised immense influence on the minds of the educated natives of Bengal. Though the Hindus never liked bis zeal in conversion, yet they admired his character and were charmed with his oratory. He was known to them chiefly as an educationist, all Free Church institutions being known as Duff's schools. The enthusiasm and zeal that he brought to bear upon the spread of English education in Bengal caused missionary educational institutions to spring up in every direction. The Hindu revival movement has stimulated the dormant reverence of the people for sannyásis and others who have renounced the world; and the number and influence of these men seem also to be on the increase. People tbink that the sannyásís are the special agents of the gods and possess greater power than ordinary human beings, and the sannyásis by their speech and action seem to confirm the people in this belief. One such sannyásí has recently expired at Barodi, in Narayangunj, on the Megna, and his biographer says that he died at the age of 160. He is said to have travelled all over the world, not excepting even Mecca. His religion was a carious form of eclecticism, in which the good things of all established religions had a place. Loknáth Brambachárí—for such was the sannyúsi's name is represented as having effected many marvellous cures, but bis instruction is believed to have done more good than his medicines. As he always called a spade a spade, he often cured men of their pride and vanity. Balarám Dás (perhaps the nom de plume of a well-known Vaishnava of Calcutta) has tvritten a biography of Prabodhávanda Sarasvatí, a man who hated Chaitanya, reviled his doctrines, and did everything that lay in his power to discredit him at Benares, but who, when be saw him, could not help admiring him, and was at last converted to his doctrine. The work has been written in the interest of the followers of Chaitanya of the present day. The Bralıma Somaj has published a short biography of Girindra Mohan, who died lately, and the goodness of whose character endeared him to all who knew him. Under the name of Samájo Sanskúraka, a book has appeared from the pen of Munshi Riazuddin Ahmed, which contains the biography of Sayed Jamaluddin, an Afghan chief, said to have had considerable influence in his country. Jámáluddin is represented as a great reformer, who lamented the fallen condition of the followers of Islam all over the world, and wished to inspire them with an idea of their numbers, strength and power by giving them a liberal education on the old Arabic model, modified, of course, by the scientific requirements of the present day. He is a sworn enemy of England. He believes that all the miseries of his country are owing to English ambition, and that unless England is humbled there is no hope for Islam. It is said that his anti-English views have procured him banishment from almost every country in alliance with England, such as Egypt, Turkey, &c., in all of which countries he tried to do some mischief to England. It is said that he is now in Russia, and that he accoin panied Dhaleep Singh to that country.

·34 PUBLICATIONS ISSTED AND REGISTERED IN 1890. Dhirendra Binodini, by Babu Hem Chandra Banerji, sends out the heroine Binodini in the garb of a female mendicant in quest of ber husband. Adbhuta Rahasya represents Raja Shashi Shekhar, a fugitive from bis estate, as assuming the garb of a holy man. Surabálá, by Prán Kishori Devi, gives the picture of a virtuous Brahman sidow, who lost her only daughter in an inundation of the Démoda, living at Brindaban as a Vaishnavi in a hermitage. Saklisádhaaná, by Babu Surendra Mohan Bhattácháryya, introduces Bhuban, a holy man and a disciple of a Sannyási, as rescuing the Hindu tepants of Santul from oppression by Satis, who at the instigation of a Mahomedan concubine made a Brahman eat with her. Aparájilá left an orphan at an early age, resists all sorts of temptations thrown in her way both by friends and foes, and becomes at last the founder of a Hindu hermitage. This is one of Babu Debi Prasanna Roy Chaadbari's latest works, and contains a character named Haridás, the brother of A parájitá, who is persecuted and expelled from Hindu society on aca count of his liberal sentiments and wide sympathies. Garale Amrita, by Chiranjiva Sharmá, is a work which shows the steps by which a young map fond of reflection gradually acquires spiritual knowledge and attains spiritual excellence. The work has been much enlivened by shewing up psuedo-reformers and bypocrites of all sorts in the coorse of the narrative, The condition of Bengal two or three generations ago, when the zemindars were exceedingly turbulent and the police organisation of Government was not of the best, is described tvith some skill in the work named Sarbáni, by Babu Kalimaya Ghatak. There were in those days captains or free-lances, who attached themselves to particular zemindars and fought their battle. Sarbani's husband was one of these captains. He fought against his father-in-law, who was a turbulent zemindar of Nadia, baffled all bis machinations and the vigilance of the police for a long time, but was at last put in jail. Jibantara, by Pundit Harimohan Kabibhusana, is remarkable as a work in which the agency of a superhuman being—a pari— has been introduced for the development of the plot. The Lepers of Ben Hur, by General Lew. Wallace, is an interesting work as giving an insight into Jewish life ander the Roman Empire, and as introducing Jesus Christ as a worker of miracles and healer of diseases. The oppression practised by Roman prefects against the subject nations, especially the rich Jews, has been described in this work with all its horrid details, The Gutter and Dansion and Ashes for Bread are works of Anglo-Indian official life. In both these works the native characters have been painted in the blackest possible colours, and it has been assumed that no good can come out of a native. Sayyed Basik Mirar git, in Musulmani Bengali, points out the evils of marrying a girl aſlianced to another. Basik Mira married a beautiful girl, who had been betrothed to his uncle. This incensed the uncle, who killed Basik Mira, and was killed in his turn by the girl's brothers. Musulmani Bengali is used by Mahomedans living in remote corners of Bengal, especially East Bengal. Education las not made much progress among them ; they still believe in those strange events and wild stories which furnish matter for nursery tales; and writers among them show a license of imagination which is scarcely to be found among their more educated countrymen. For instance, Ibrahim Laskar writes a work entitled, Raosane nur chámáne báhár, in which a poor cultivator sovs bis field with Indian-corn, but it produces a harvest of diamonds; the man suddenly grows rich and gets bis son married to a princess, who discovers his low origin and complains to ber father. The father orders him to be hanged. The poor victim prays to Allah, who gives him a better understanding and better manners, and he is thus reconciled to his father-in-lawy. llistory and Geography. Works under this head are mostly educational, being historical or geographical class books or compendiums, catechisms, abridgments, notes, model questions, &c., to help their study. The two non-educational works in Bengali that appeared during the year are genealogies which are not likely to interest general readers. The only work that deserves mention is an English translation of the second volume of Alanta-Khabut-Tawarikh, the fifth and last fasciculus of which was issued by the Asiatic Society during the year under review. The trork gives a history of the court of Akbar and of the doctrines of his new reli. gion. The author, Al Badaoni, tras a nobleman of Akbar's court; be hated the Ilahi religion, but outwardly conformed to the views of the Emperor in hope of the preferment which he eventually obtained.

The most important miscellaneous works that appeared during the year were on the caste question, baring for their object the raising of the social status of some caste or other. The Bláhishy. Kaiburita Játi tried to prove tbat Brahmans can use water fetched by those of the Kaibarita caste who, baviny given up fishing, are now engaged in the cultivation of land. Hathút Kshatriya, Fritten by a Brabman author, atten, pts to disprove the claims of the Kayastha caste to be regarded as Kshatriyas. But the most important work on this question, is the Ballála Charita, published with a beogali translation. The publication of the book was eagerly looked forward to by the members of the Sonár Baniya and the Yogi castes of Bengal, as containing unassailable testimony of the high and pure origin of those castes, which now hold a very low position. lbe original work, dated S.K. 1300, corresponding to 1379 A.D., professes to have been written by the teacher of Ballál Sen, who is represented as a righteous king devoted to the furthering of the interests of his people. It is there stated that the Sunár, Baniyas and Yogis trere degraded by him for their seditious and rebellious spirit. But the appendix (Parishishta), which professes to have been written in S.K. 1500 by a descendant of the writer of the original work, states that Ballál was a tyrant, a bad ruler, and a great scoun. drel. The Sonár Banisas refused to lend him money for his unjust war with Manip'ır, and so he degraded them. The logís were also similarly degraded on very slight provocation. The writer's ancestor could not speak the truth boldly, because the Sen family was then reigning, but at his time the family was extinct, and so he could write freely. It may be nema ked here that in S.K. 1500 the followers of Chaitanya were organizing their sect, and the Sonár Baniyas of Satyaon were their great supporters. The book, whatever its historiral value may be, deserves careful reading, as it gives a cornplete account of the origin of the various casies in Bengal from the orthodox point of view, and suggests a number of problems, the solution of which will prove to be of great value to the historical student. For instance, the Parishishta was written at the instance of the Raja of Navadvíp. Who could this Raja be? The present Nudelea family came in much later, and Ballál's family had ceased to esist, as the author him. felf states. It would be a matter of congratulation if caste agitation brought such facts to light. Philosophy.-Works under this head are mere republications of ancient Sanskrit works, mostly under the patronage of the Asiatic Society of Bengal. Several works are in progress, but none has yet been finished except the Allvaita Brahma Siddhi, by Sadánanda Yati of Cashmere, who furished about three hundred years ago. It follows the line of Madhusudan Sarasvati's diloarta Siilahi, written in Akbar's time. Madhusudan's work is rather difficult. The present work is written in a simpler and more engaging style. It attempts to prove the nondualistic theory at the expense of all the various schools of philosophy-orthodox and heterodox. Its chapters are designated Judgara prahára, or striking with the club at the head of those who venture to differ from the author. The notes by the editor, Pundit Váman Shastri Upádlyáya of Bornbay, are very valuable. The editor gives an account of himself in the preface, from which be appears to have read much and travelled much, and his notes fully bear out these facts. Nguva l'indu, a celebrated work on Buddhist logic, with its commentary by Acháryya Dlarmottara, the supposed founóler of the Dharınattariya School of the Buddhists, was discovered by Professor Peter Peterson in one of the libraries of Bombay, and the complete work has been edited by the learned Professor under the auspices of the Asiatic Society of Bengal. It is a solitary Instance of a Buddhist work found in the continent of India, and as such it has creded vreat interest among learned men all over the world. It contains three chapters-one on Peremption, one on the Inforence of Knowledge, another on the Ioference of Words. The Budiihints believe in tiro methods of obtaining right knowledge, perception and inference ; they reject all the rest, such as analovy, testimony, tra lition, &c. Quotations from the Nyaya T'in./are frequently met with in the old commentaries of the Hindu system of philosophy. But these quotations could not be verified as the work was lost. The publication of this work will tend to a better understanding of Buddhist philosophical doctrines. Poetry.dlo o chhárú, ly Miss Kamini Sen, is perhaps the best poetical work received during the year. It is a collection of short poetical pieces, some of which show her to possess an original cast of mind. The picture of love given in the pieces entitled slaláshrella and Pamarik is really charming. They have been taken from Bána Bhatta's excellent work, tlie Kalderari, but the authoress has given then a new, modern, and fascinating garb. Chhátumaci-Pusinaya, by Pandit Shivanáth Shastri, is an allegory on a spiritual subject. It trees the gradual development of a mind in maiters spiritual. Chháyámayi is the daughter of an old man fund of the world, and she is brought up in the ways of the world.

For instince, the worship of Durga, which furma to important a chapter in the sixth Luck of the Námáyana, has been carefully left out. The fork of the greatest importance to a follower of Chaitanya is, however, the Prena. blati Chandritd, by Narotlama Dkt. Ibe work is a short one, but it is the quintessence of the Vaishoavite doctrioes. It is kid to be the commentary of 8 lakh of works. The languge 14 terso sad vigorous, iod many of its verses hare pussed into proverbs. It preaches The ·39 PUBLICATIONS ISSUED AND REGISTERED IN 1890. the doctrine of Premabhakli, which means devotion and love to Krishna, a devotion in which the worshipper is to think of nothing, hear of nothing and speak of nothing besides Krishna, his female associates, and Brindávan. Karma and Jnána cannot constitute the sum total of human liappiness, the highest bliss. The highest bliss is to think one's self transported to Brindaran into the presence of Krishna and Radhiká, with their female associates around them. The worshipper is to serve them at the beck and call of the sakhis; to fan them with the chauri, to supply them with betel and to shampoo their feet. It is a form of devotional selfsacrifice and complete self-effacement in the service of the deity, who represents love in its highest intensity—the love not of a father for his son, or of a son for his father, not of a wife for ber husband, or of a busband for his wife, but the love or infatuation of an adulterer for his mistress-love which will readily induce one to leave house and home, to forget pain, suffering and disease, and to thiok of nothing else but the object on which the mind is fixed. Narottama had a great friend named Rám Chandra Sen or Dás, as he was called after his conversion to Vaishnavism, whose Sanskrit poems rank very bigh among Vaishnava works. Rám Chandra wrote a Bengali 'vork, entitled Smaran Darpana, which teaches people the method of obtaining the highest bliss in the line of Narottama's Premabhakti Chandriká. Basudeva Sárvabhauma, a celebrated Sanskrit scholar of Navadwipa, became a disciple of Chaitanya and wrote a poem of one hundred verses-2 shataka or a century in bis honour. The work has been published with a metrical Bengali translation by Babu Rámdayal Ghosh, Sub-Inspector of Schools, 24-Pergunnahs. The translation, though not a close one, gives the sense of the original in a clear and idiomatic style. Pivarta Vilás is a work of peculiar interest. It is an anonymous work, said to have been written by a disciple of Krishnadása Kaviràja ; but many of the Vaishnavas of the present day regard it as an apocryphal work written in the interest of the Kartábhajás, who branched off from the followers of Chaitanya during the latter part of the last century. It gives secret and mystical interpretations of many of the verses in Krishnadás's great work, the Charitámrita: It begins with an interesting account of the attempt made by Jíva Gosvámí to suppress the Kavirája's work, because it would bring the doctrine of Vaishnavism bome to every man, a thing which, Brahman as he was, he could not tolerate. But the work was published, in spite of the influence of Jíva Gosvámí to the contrary, by Mukunda, a Multan merchant, who was a disciple of the Kaviráj. Hinduism.-Pundit Visvanáth Tarkabhúshan, the father of Babu Bhúdeva Mukharji, C.I.E., invented a peculiar interpretation of the Rámáyana and Maháblárata. He believed that the Rámáyana is the embodiment of the spiritualistic, and the Malábbárata of the ritualistic ideas contained in the Vedas. The Vishvanáth Rámáyana, which is an anonymous publication, contains the ideas of the Pundit. The present is only the first part, and it goes to the end of the Adikánda. The spiritual interpretations are given mostly in the form of foot-notes; for instance, Dasharatha is interpreted as the lord of the ten senses-one who has the means of going in ten directions. Thiere are some among the Hindus who believe in ten incarnations only, some in twelve, and some in twenty-four, and others who believe incarnations to be innumerable; and this is cxemplified in the work " Agal Shankar-Lilámritárnab,” which regards the Agal Shankar of Jhaljhalia in Máldaha as an incarnation of Balaráma. Rúma Charita Mlánas, or the Hindi Rámáyana, by Tulsidás, is said to be superior in many respects to even the immortal work of Válmíki. The work is said to have saved the wliole of Hindustan from falling into Tantric mysticism, which reigned supreme in Bengal two centuries ago, to the great detriment of the mental and moral improvement of the people. The work had been printed and reprinted several times, but no one took the trouble of giving a good edition of it to the world, till Mr. Grierson drew the attention of the Behar public to the fact, and discovered some old manuscripts of the time of Tulsidas. The hint was at once taken up by the enterprising proprietor of the Khargavilás Press, Bankipore, and an excellent edition of the work was published last year.
