In 1875 my son, the late George Capper, a Ceylon official surveyor, was employed during nearly two years in making measurements and drawings of the principle ruins at Anurâdhapura. The results of his labours were shown in upwards of thirty large sheets of tracings, which have since been copied and forwarded to the Colonial Office in London.

The subject of Oriental Music is one which offers a large field for research, in which very little work has, as yet, been done.

La sagesse des Saints est grande; les gens d'études en s'y appliquant approchent de sa nature. Mais le destin assigné à chacun diffère, le perfectionnement de la vertu n'est pas égal en tous. Les Saints des premièrs âges s'accordent avec ceux des temps ultérieurs, comme les deux parties d'un sceau. On ne doit donc pas s'écarter d'eux; car, si on le fainsait tant soit peu, on s'en irait errant à mille lis de la vérité.
