The great success of the Oriental Annual last
year has encouraged the Proprietors to spare no ex-
pense to render the present volume still more worthy
of public patronage.
Their object having been to make this work some-
thing beyond a mere elegant trifle, it will be found to
contain matters of History and views of Society
which they trust will render it a book for the Li-
brary as well as for the Drawing-room table.
In one respect the Oriental Annual differs from
all works of a similar class; — it will be continued
in yearly volumes, every three forming a distinct
series.
The First Series will contain descriptions of the
three English Presidencies :—the volume already pub-
lished describes Madras : —the present volume de-
scribes Calcutta, and the third will describe Bombay.
