The CHINESE MoNARCHY.-- The era Of the
Chinese monarchy has been variously estimated
from 2,952 to 2,l32 years before Christ and the
year 1851 has been chosen for the lawful epoch.
The difference ARISES from the uncertain dura-
ton of the two first dynasties, and the vacant
space that lies beyond them as far as the real
or fabulous times of Fohi. The thirty-six eclip-
ses of Confucius, thirty-one of which have been
verified, were observed between 722 and 4sO
years before Christ. China is, undoubtedly,
the Oldest empire in the world; its authentic
history extends over the marvellous period of
1900 years. About two centuries before our
era, the Chinese were possessed of ink, paper,
and the art of printing. They were also ac-
quainted with gunpowder, and excelled in pyro-
techny. They are u wonderful people, and
their history is one of the great problems which
the philosophy of Europe has vainly attempted
to solve.
