RIPPON and BURTON, 12, Wells-stress Oxford-street. Established 1820. =— MEETING OF THE BRITISH IRON COMPANY. A Special General meeting of the Shareholders of this Company was held yesterday at the London Tavern, ilishopsgate-street, in pursuance of the following requisi tion ; i r VENING SUN: ----- ---------- draw:-, because, if it were not, it would b e the muss ' °I meeting after meeting. The quest ion was ver b clear, It was a question between the body of the Shareholders an& t those who had not :paid up their calls. Legal prose & ings were going on, and it was with a view to prejudice the interests- of the Shareholders that these resolutiot were moved. He thought the explanation with regard . to Mr. Mott perfectly sa tisfactory. u tation ow ainst the im i t. Mnj or RICHARDSON protested agp motives, which were ignorantly said to influence the party with which he was connected. In answer to what had ' fallen from Mrs Green, he would tell that gentleman that' if he multiplied the body of the united Shareholders _w Sh a reholders 501., he would find it was not so small a sum as es imagined. He said also, that if he had nly to pay his own share of the costs in case he libelled him (Major Richardson) he would not hesitate to state what he knew. Noss , he (Major Richardson) would only say if the same proposal were made by any man of respectability, he would ac cede to it. —(llear, hear, and " oh.") He had said from the very first, that he only wanted to get out of the eon cern, having been unwittingly allured into it. When he got into it he found it in such a state Out th of the numb e r he felt t e et sooner he got out of it th e better, of shares which he purchased, he sold twenty. And he held the others, which cost him SOL, besides the costs ; and he must say, if the shares were now reduced so low as s. Gd., the Shareholders were the cause. With se gird to the withdrawing of the pleas which had been al luded to, they were not withdrawn for the reason alleged. And he trusted the time would come when they would 'vow they (the united Shareholders) were right. — Wear, hear) —and when, despite of paltry insinuations they Is compel those rights to be yielded to them . (Hear, hear.) The CIIAIR:!AN, OH putting the resolution, said he ' hoped no person '7lsts had not paid up their calls Would raise their hand. The first resolution was then put, and negatived by a large majority on the show of hands. On moving the second . resolution, Mr. JACKSON after commenting on some of the obser vations which had • fallen from the Chairman, recom mended a dissolution to the Shareholders as the wisest plan they could adopt. He preferred suicide to slow poison. The foulest motives had been attributmi to the United Shareholders, and imputations of the me-4 vile and slanderous description had been cast upon thessi.by some person who supplied the Mining Journal with false hoods and vituperation. He said that the United Share-- holders would soon be dead. But they were not dead yet. They had a duty to perform, and that duty they would perform faithfully and honestly. The Company was in debt to an enormous amount, and yet they would not adopt the wise course of withdrawing' from it. He called upon the Shareholders to look' calmly at their position, and to beware. The reason he asked for the report mentioned in the:second resolution was, that he considered they should be the greatest fools . if they did not weigh the accounts, and look to the reselt. What had been done in the case of Ruabon ? Had it Neel' dis posed of ? It was a cheap purchase, and why ;lot get get rid of it ? He wished to look at the Report, and if the gentlemen on the other side deserved support they would get it. Let them come to them, and show thesis that they were mistaken, and they would then receive' their support. But until it was shown them that they were mistaken they would not consent to be dragged at the heels of Mr. 11. Palmer and Sir G. De H. Larpent. Mr. JONES seconded the resolution. Sir. GREEN was about replying to Major Richardson when the CHAIRMAN suggested to him that it was bent; not to open any angry discussion again. Mr. H. PALMER said the Directors would be very glad to find a purchaser for Ruabon, and if a good one was brought them they would be glod to dispose of it. The resolution was then put from the Chair and negatived. On putting the third resolution we understood that Major Richardson consented not to press it to a vote. Major RICHARDSON said that the resolution which he now meant to propose was one out of which he had been jockeyed at three different meetings. Indeed there' had been one occasion on which the Chairman—as it was probably a sort of holiday—had given the Pro prietors leave to vote as they chose, and then he had been able to bring it forward. The resolution had for its object the immediate dissolution of the Company. The necessity of such a proceeding was obvious. The Company had been long since virtually dissolved by theillegal altera tions made in the deed of settlement. Every step now taken was fraught with danger. The Directors ouglz to have proposed the dissolution of the Company in May 1838. IF such a proposition had been made and carried at that time the Proprietors would have been at least 500,000/. richer than at the present time. The price of bar iron, according to their Report, was then 91. per toil, at Newport, while now it was about 61., making a difThr ence of 120,0004 on the 40,000 tons produced annually by the Company. Thus, according the Chairman's system of valuation—that the property was worth ten years' purchase—the difference of value amounted to 1,200,0001. Had the Company even been dissolved in 1840, wh en he. (Major Richardson) first proposed it, they won Id have been saved at least 200,0001. Iron had fallea Wavle per cent. Day by day, year by year, ruin became more certain, and there was but one remedy, a dissolution of the Company - . Let them sell the property and pay. just; debts. lie begged them to get out of their difficulties; with spirit and with honour—(llear, hear)—yes, with honour ; and lie told them that if they would go on with the Company for six years longer, not one of them would he able to protect himself from the consequences. They had lost 1,700,0001. during the last six years, and if they went on the next six years, which of them he would ask would undertake to pay the losses? Sir. Riclnno would have the Company first get rid of the liabilities thitt pressed on them at present. Let, all the Shareholders be put on the same footing—let each contribute a fair. share to pay off the liabilities, and then let them talk of dissolving the Company. Who was to indemnify the gentlemen who made advances for tlal purpose of relieving the Company from its difficulties? With respect to the legal proceedings now pending be tween one class of Shareholders and another, he pr tested against any in formation being given to these opsonents, as they would only use it against them ; and he thought they were entitled to know from their legal adviser what was the real cause of delay in those proceedings. saiti Mr. FREsHFIELD , the solicit or to the Company, that the pleas in the action were delivered by . the Share holders in November, and amounted to 120 in number. As those were subject to the opinion of a Judge, they went before one, and he reduced them to thirty-eight, pronouncing the remainder unnecessary. The Share holders appealed, in January, to the full Court, to have that decision reversed ; to have it allowed them to esta blish a certain number of the pleas which they had pre eioasly pleaded, and that application was, f brom bro ug da to d a y, luring the term just ended, sought to e forward. On Monday, the last day of Term, the Court being still unable to get it decided, referred it back to the Judge sslio had previously entertained the question, to decide it hinsselE That was the present state of the matter. In a wort:, the question was not in a state to enable them to go on w ..t.h the trial at present. In answer to a ProprieSsar , Mr. FnEsinuELn stated that, he would go on with th did e trial at the earliest pos sible period. At present he dot know the points which he was to meet. After some discussion, in which Mr. Freshfield, the Chairman, and several Proprietors took part, Major RICHARDSON proposed the following resolution, which was seconded by Mr. JONES—" That the British Iron Company be and is hereby dissolved, and that a CO. "mime of ten Proprietors be chosen at this meeting to oa , - 1 . 3 , - , nto effect the dissolution of the Company in the mutat/ mom , , , Ildvan tag'sops to the interests of the Pro prietors in p anent.: . -I t ' yViliCh was The CH AMMAN ha Tin g put t.le resoualt, i I negatived, the meeting sep arated. e I - ' Cr " TO THE DIRECTORS OF THE BRITISH IRON COMPANY. " GENTLEMEN—We, the undersigned Shareholders of the British Iron Company, in .pursuance of the provision of the Deed of Settlement of the said Company, bearing date the 28th April, 1825, do hereby- require you, the Directors of the said Company, to call, without delay, a Special General Meeting of the Shareholders at the Lou don Tavern, for the purpose of taking into consideration the following resolutions, and confirming the same, pur suant to the Deed of Settlement. • " Ist. That a true and correct copy of all the alterations and additions made in the clauses of the Deed of Settle tiement of the Company since the 28th April, 1825, to the present time, be printed and sent to each Shareholder. " 2d. That the Directors furnish every Shareholder with the accounta and expenditure at the several works 'anttestablishments for the half-year ending the 30th June, 18414' upon which the report read to the General Meeting of the 19th November is founded, and also the balance sheet made up to the same period. • `! 3d. That the Report and Statement of Account pro duced at the Half-yearly General Meeting, held on Fri day, the 19th November, be rejected. because the same are neither satisfactory nor explanatory. " 4th. That the British Iron Company be, and is here by dissolved, and that a Committee of ten Proprietors be chosen at this meeting to carry into effect the disso lution of the Company in the manner most advantageous to the interests of the Proprietors in general. " London, Ist December, 1841. " W. J. Richardson. " T. Goldsworthy. W. Jones. W. Atkinson. John B. Jackson. Abrm. Cohen. B. G. Maltby. John Ty•rrell. Charles White. J. 11. Brown. J. Thompson. A. Robertson." The chair Wee taken at one o'clock by Sir G. G. de IL Larpent, Bart., M.P. The CHAIRMAN said that the constant recurrence of meetings, such as the present, in which questions were brought forward for discussion on which the sense of the majority of the Proprietors had been already taken and recorded, was a circumstance very much calculated to have a detrimental effect on the interests of the Com pany. The Company was a trading one. The tendency of those proceedings, therefore, would be to lower the value of their property. At the present period the price of iron was low, the market was overstocked with a supply, and the dissolution of the Company and sale of its property must not only be attended with nor good or profitable consequences to any party, babe effected with great stia'rifice on the part of the Shareholders—par ticularly those - who had paid up the full amount of their shares. With respect to the information sought to be Obtained from the Directors by the requisitionists, the Judge, to whom an app lication for an order to that effect was made, iutti refused to grant it. A motion.of a similar nature had been on a previous occasion made by Major Richardson at a meeting of the Proprietors, and a ballot having' been demanded 1,662 Shareholders recorded their votes against the motion, and six only in its favaur. That was a pretty decisive expression of the opinion of the Company on the matter. The Directors were always Ivillifau to afford every possible information to the Pro prietors, lint the present demand for books, papers, &c., was refused, because the parties making that demand Elio so with the view of rendering those documents ancillary to their views in the law-snit now pending between cer tain Shareholders and the rest of the Company. Major RienanosoN said he rose for the purpose of proposing the resolution which had been read to the meeting. ; but, before he did so, he would first make some ofx•wrvations on the proceedings upon which they were founded, He would first call the attention of the meeting to the deed of settlement, ,which had been. , /rioted', and a copy Of which might be obtained by, every bl u stal.alder for a few shillings, the cost of its printing, but for witieh there were no Wanks due to the Direc tors ; and he 'Weald request the attention of the meeting to the statement he would lay before it, of the various al terAiis - which were mark. In it. It. was supposed that, in accordance with the 102 d clause, the number of Directors aitoald not be less than sixteen, while, in fact, there had been, tor a long time, only seren. How, he ss , ..9eld ask, was this change made ? And, again, clause l 0 Ciet4ares that the auditors shall never consist of less than foari whereas they have never been more than two ; and in like manner had clauses 102 and 112 b ct een ors s et aside.. He now cattle to Oe conduct of the Dire with regard to Mr. Mott, a gentleman high f p esetability, and a barrister', lowards wh of om they helloed in the most arbitrary and scandalous manner ; fm', after baying purchased thirty shares, and desired his bruiter to purchase thirty more, they refused to admit him, in the teeth of clauses 137 and 141: But what right had they, he would ask, to make the altefatlone they had in the 29th clause ? They made etntententa that they had got the opinion of five eminent laWygfa• ern the case of Attwood, but they kept in the backgfuiiad a part of that opinion, and de ceived the Shareholders, to their serious detriment. They petitioned Parliament in 1840, and the names of the petions attached to the petition were those of Mr. Wilsott, llf rr Ilavenshaw, Mr. Barclay, Mr. Balmey, and Sir G. G. dt its Larpent. In that petition they state the capital to be but one million, thereby deceiving the Par liament as to the facts ; and upon such gr ounds they ob tained an Act of Parliament. They either committed a fraud upon the Parliament or the Shareholders. Mr. his PAMmt read the Act of Parliament, which set forth the oa AW. to be two millions. laj or RIO aallad4ai-a..That was not an answer to him.— (" Oh, oh," atid cotters') • It was easy to laugh, but they would soon find t he y were l au ghing o the erred, it wrong side.—(Hear, hear.) ' ll4e Iv resolution of was true, to a rescinding °. twelve years' standing, by which y.ras pretended . that 4 nares , raised the capital had beers doubled, null the from 501. to too/. lie w as also referred to a h...' ort h o! May 4, 1838, and in order to aseertain Its truth e went to the Bill-office and asked, for a copy at the peti tion, by which he found that in March, 1840, two years afterwards, it was declared that the capital consisted of 1,000,000 L, in shares of 501. each. But this was not all, for while the Company were losing 100,000 E a -year they made dividends, not from the profits, for no profits were there, but from the capital.—(Hear.) Ih would ask had clause 79 been altered, by which it was made imperative to sell all forfeited shares at the end of a month ? Had they not lost 50,0001. by not selling 1,161 such shares ? • lle contended that the resolutions he was about to propose were just resolutions, and every person wishing to know his real position oug ht to support him in asking to know what alterations were made in the deed of settlement. The resolutions having been seconded. Mr. GREEN said lie should move as an amendment, that the resolutions be read on that day six months. Mr. COHEN inquired if the gentleman who had just spoken was the editor of the Paul Pry ? Mr. GREEN replied in the negative. He knew no thing of the Paul Pry, but lie thought it was very in consistent in the parties now seeking to carry their re solutions, after going before a Judge, who refused the power of calling for the endorsement of the deed. Those persons came into the Company having few shares as a body, and for objects which, because of the law of libel, • he would not state, but which he well knew within him self. lie knew one of them to be a holder of only ten shares, and to have paid in only twenty-five shillings. He came into the Company, knowing his liability, for the purpose of becoming a leader of a party. Major RICHARDSON said lie had nothing to do with the falsehoods the gentleman was uttering.—(Order.) The CHAIRMAN said he could not permit such lan guage while he was in the chair. Mr. JACKSON—Then motives ought not to be imputed. The CHAIRMAN said he considered Mr. Green was not wrong . in stating what jwas the interest of another in the Company, but if he were wrong it would be com petent to Major Richardson to reply. He hoped both would see the propriety of keeping within the bounds of fair discussion. Mr. GREEN said that what he stated as to the gentle man being a holder of ten shares was correct. He thought it his duty, looking to the great interest of the parties who paid up their calls, to move the amendment which he did. It appeared from the newspapers that the parties had pleaded—they had gone before a Judge— they had withdrawn their pleas—and the reason they assigned was that they 'were gbing to plead more. He be lieved that there were some . ulterior views in moving these resolutions, and to defeat them he moved his amendment to the resolutions. Mr. KEY seconded the amendment. The CHAIRMAN said that he wished to call the atten tion of the meeting to what had fallen from Major Richardson respecting Mr. Mott. The reason why he had not been admitted was that lie was a defaulter. Major RICHARDSON said that was not the case. Mr. Wriakissost said that Mr. Mott had paid his calls, but said he would not pay any more. The CHAIRMAN said he did not mean anything per sonal to Mr. Mott, and he wished that it should be clearly understood that the only reason for the Directors acting as they did was, that if they acted otherwise they would be acting in opposition to the interests of the Proprietors, and it would be proved by the votes whe ther confidence was to be placed in their opinions. With regard to the amendment, he hoped it would . be wit' drawn, as he thought it the better way to meet the re , solutions with a direct negative.—(Hear, hear.) The amendment was then withdrawn. Mr. R. Telma was glad the amendment was with, ANECDOTE OF THE RElCilini KING OF PRUSSIA. We have much pleasure in laying before our reau l .f. an interesting anecdote, which has been communicate dl to us by a gentleman who has recently returned from Berth?, Some time since • an effort was made to get rid of a windmill, the close approxiznation of which to the Royal Palace rendered it in smile degree a nuisance, and certainly an eyesore. Overturiss Were tbatac cordingly made to th e sturd y y eoman for the p,,:rcha se of the obnoxious p ro p ert y ; but whether it wag the man was possessed of a strong spirit of obstinaci. or was r e a lly too deeply attached to his old family haly.iitfr tion, the Tesijt .was that the offers, though tempting.:, were again and - az ;ain refused. There are generally some indi lib ir d s attac h t :g to a Court who are ready to suggest medics, direct or Lidirect, for inconveniences or annoyances offered to Royalty. Accordingly - , upon a hint from some minion, a law suit was ,pmnienced nainst the obstinate miller for the recovery o f e ,:sytain sulds al leged to be due for arrears of an impost 01 the por tion of Crown land which it was suggesw,d was' Occupied by the mill in question. The sturdy holder of the " toll-dish" was not wholly without friends or funds, and he prepared vigorously to take his stand its defence of his rights. The question came in due time be fore the Courts of law, and the plaintiff, having com pletely failed to establish any right on behalf of the Crown, the miller obtained a verdict in his favour, with a declaration for payment of his costs in the suit. This was certainly no small triumph, and mer rily went round the unfurled sails of the old mill, and well pleased, no doubt, was the rough owner with the sound, as they went Iv InZling and whizzing under the influence of the gale, which ceriZinlY seemed to blow e first who has strongly in his favour. But he was not 12. 1 with so found that when drawn into a lawsuit, partienh: ri -Y formidable an opponent, a man is more likely to „Hain a loss " than escape scot-free. What with extra expens s ' interruption of business, and rejoicings after the victor) f the miller found himself pressed by considerable diffi culties, and after in vain struggling a few months against the pressure, he at length took a manly resolution, gained access to the Monarch's presence, and, after roughly apologizing for having thwarted his Majesty's wishes, frankly stated that his wants alone had rendered him compliant, but that he was prepared to accept the sum originally offered for the property. The King, after a few minutes' conversation, handed a draught for a considerable amount to the applicant, and said, "I think, my honest friend, that you will find that sufficient to meet the emergency ; if not come and talk to me again upon the suleject. As to the mill, 1 assure you I will have none of it. The sight of it now fives me more pleasure than it ever occasio ned p ain ; or I see in it an object which assures me of a g uarantee n for the saftety of my people, and a pledg e for ply ow happiness by its demonstration of the existence of a power and a principle higher than the aut hority of the Crown, and more valuable than a ll the privileges of royalty."

We have been favoured with a sight of this elaborate work; and we must pronounce it vastly superior to the previous no louses. The contents are admitebly arranged. There is a dis tinct alphabetical list of the names, in number, of all civil .officers under Government; in the Bank of England, East India House, and all other public establlisheocnts ; an alphabetical list. of streets in the metropolis and its vicinity, . with the inhabit ants according to their numerical order in cacti street ; the only Street Directory yet published which includes gentry as well as tradets.

The scope of that important branch, the " Street Directory," has been very considerably extended ; and thou sands are now included, who reside without the narrow limits beyond which our hooks of reference have not before passed : here we have a register of all, whether dwelling in Barns bury Park, Basingliall-street, or Belgrave-square, in King's road, Chelsea, or in Kingsland; and one of the great advan tages peculiar to this publication is, that all inhabitants are inserted in their nu ~ erical order. M r s , know of no other street list in which either all the gentry, or all the mer chants, traders, and tradesmen are not—incredible as the fact may appear—entirely omitted. We may mention that it gives the carries of the Directors of most of the Hallway and Insuranee Companies, and a convgelf.t,i.4 of Officers.4f,loint sat, Companies. The " Parliamertary Diiecfory" is co pious ; in it the offices held by every Peer and Commoner are accurately detailed, even to the recent appointment of Lord Ellenborough as Governor-General of India, and of his suc cessor at the India Board, Lord Fitzgerald The " Postage Directory " furnishes much original and highly valuable in formation in reference to Money Orders, and to the precise time of the deliveries of letters throughout the country. A volume so valuable. as this will be generally appreciated. It does honour to the establishment which can put forth so vast an amount of authentic information of character so diversified ; and it refleets credit on those who have so arranged it that the work is equally a model of compilation and of typography. We cannot but think that a title more appropriate than merely "Post-office London Directory" might be chosen. The work surely merits a name that' would convey a definite idea of in formation so vast and varied, uniting as it does, in one volume, Directory, Court Guide, and Court Kalendar, and superseding the whole class of similar publications. Britannia, November 27, 1841. The old proverb says, it is good to let well alone; but, we see no possible reason why well should be left to stand still, so long as better is clearly attainable ; and s uch appears to be the op.nion of the enterprising proprietors of the " Post-office Lon don Directory," The present edition is superior in many re spects, to any of its predecessors. On its first appearance, it was a neat and correct .pocket-volume—nothing more; but it has gone on improving and augmenting from year to year, till, by the . mere force of its manifest superiority, it has fairly beaten every competitor out of the field, and become, from the variety, copiousness, and accuracy of its information, an indispensable requisite to every count ing-house and chop in the metropolis and its suburbs. It would be quite impossible, in a brief notice, to give anything like an adequate idea of the contents of a closely-printed royal octavo volume, running to upwards of 1,500 pages. It can only be justly described as a series of Directories, each one com plete in itself, and each of peculiar value to every per son engaged in business. For instance, is the residence of any particular person required, a reference to the " Commer cial" or " Court Directory" will at once give the desired in formation. If a complete list of all persons engaged in any one of the vat ious professions or trades exercised in the me tropolis is sought, turn to the " Trades' Directory," and you have, ready to your hand, arranged in alphabetical order, and with the residence attached, a return of every ac countant, apothecary, artist, Aac., &c., within the limits of the bills of mor:alitv. It is the same with every other depart ment of the work. "We have never seen any volume containing so much matter, so well divided, and clearly arranged. The intimate connexion of the Proprietor with the Post-office en sured him the most accurate information ; and his printers' extensive printing-office and steam-presses enabled him to issue his sheets with surprising rapidity ; so that every change is made up almost to the day of publication. The whole book is worthy of the mighty city it anatomises ; the most correct, as well as the most useful, record of its industry, its vastness, and its intelligence; and, if we keep in mind the enterprise neces. sary for the conception of such a work, the immense care re quired in its preparation, the enormous capital required to pro (Rice it, and, considering its bulk and variety, the surprisingly los price at which it is issued, we must pronounce it, notwith standing the typographical wonders daily issued from the press, the most surprising volume to which the first city in the world has yet given birth. John 8011, November 27, 1841. Again we have to bestow our praise on the completeness and cheapness of the multifarious information comprised in the " Post-office London Directory," which comprehends within one moderately sized volume, of elrar and easy reference, a Commercial, t'rades', Law, Court, and Parliamentary Direc tory.. It is at once the fullest volume of the kind, the must ex act, has the must recent intelligence—:lee information it em bodies having been collected within the last seventy days from official sources, slid through ag ents possessing,,the requisite lo cal knowledge, and is altogether the completest guide-book to the metropolis that has hitherto appeared.

This work is in 1,527 imperial octavo pages, and the study of the compilers appears to have been to. render each page a speci men of systematic arrangement, and of how much information it is possible to convey in a given space. We do not believe that any work of the kind exists so nearly approaching perfection. The resources of the Post -office, and mighty they are proved to be, are here wrought out into every useful variety of combina tion, and to each division of the book has been imparted a labo rious finish, that only those accustomed to literary labour can entirely appreciate.

It is only necessary to announce the publication itself, and to add that arranged as it as been with great care and attention, aided by sources of official information peculiar to itself, it may be taken as a safe guide in the various matters upon which it professes to enlighten the public.

The follovvlng iteviews of the Complete Directory have al ready appeared Times, December 3, 1841. This useful matter-of-fact volume has just been published by Messrs. Kelly and Co., of Old Boswell-court, Temple-bar, and will no doubt be, as it ought to be, in the hands of every merchant, banker, and tradesman in the country. It is, independently of its utility, by which it is rendered indis rosible to every counting-house and shop, a curious sta tlAticel monument of the extent, importance, trade, and wealth of the metropolis, and as such a document deserving the attention even of persons who are not immedhetely in tere3ted in commercial and business pursuits. The ores •nt volume fur 1842 contains some important new matter, with which the preceding volumes were not furnished—it has an im portant addition, " The official . Directory," an alphabetical list of all persons holding situations under the Crown, of all persons holding situations in the East India .House, in the Bank of England, and in the various law, city offices, and all other public offices. This addition is of itself enough to show the great pains taken by the Proprietors to render the book perfect. There is also some useful information given relative to the " Money Order-office," to which, if the public would pay more attention than they have hitherto done, less would be heard of the loss of money by the transmission of remittances by post in the manner usually adopted. The number of stamps is .ued to the various newspapers published throughout England and \Vales is given, together with the amount of stamp duties on advertisements paid by each paper respectively, and, indeed a mass of information is brought together from which the best informed may - derive some increase of knowledge, and to which the.attention of the most ignorant and careless can hardly be called in vain. As far as the cursory examination can justify an opinion, and it is next to impossible to pay to such a work as this the minute attention it deserves, it appears to be compiled with indefatigable industry, extreme vigilance, and an excellent judgment for arrangement. Morning Cbronicle, December 21, 1841• Wehave had occasion to commend the extraordinary diligence and accuracy shown in getting up the ". Post-offieg Directory" fir former years, and no less praise is due to the publication of the present volume. It contains the same immense mass of information relative to the metropolis, which renders the work one of the most astonishing monuments of the greatness of London that can well be conceived. This information app ars classified, distributed and arranged in a variety of ways so as to make the facility of reference nearly perfect. The corrections necessary from the changes of a year appear, as far as it is possible to judge, to have been carefully made, and it. would be difficult to over-estimate the labour involved in such corrections. We recommend it to the favourable consi deration of the public ; and, in fact, it must be regarded as indis pensable in . every house or office where business is trans acted. To those, if there be any, who have not seen it, it es i 1 convey the best notion of the variety of its contents to say, that the single volume of 1,500 pages contains a Streets' Directory —Trades' Directory—Law Directory—C , ty—Parliamentary — Courts—Postage—fianking—and Official and Conveyance Directories—each a large work, and complete in itself ; though the whole are requisite to a publication which professes to be a Directory for Louden. braces is Morning Herald, Nov. 30, 1841. e is ve a ry m p os o t in e t om of pl i e n t t e er a e n em j e i x n tr a e n t ri ne n ly ear us t e h l e ul m w e o t r r k o . p o I t s t that can affect the wants of the community at large, anal is service able to all classes of society. Under one general head, it con tains a series of Directories, in which are enumerated all the trades, streets, names, official designations, Parliamentary, legal, banking, and Post-office references, that. are in daily re quisition ; and, while it is of the most ample dimensons (ex tending over 1,500 pages) is accurate in the minutest particu lars. No public of f ice o r mercantile house should, in tact, be without it. Morning Post, December 29, 1841. The charge, whether true or false, brought against the " Annuals," that, however pretty they may be, they are of little or no use, cannot in any degree apply to this singular publication. Within the single volume, neatly brought out by Messrs Kelly and Co., of Old Boswell-court, Temple•bar, is comprised all the information that can be useful to the fashionable, legal, or commercial c o m munities. "It in cludes a "Court' Directory," which alone contains about five and-twenty thousand names; a " Law Directory" of the most ample description, giving, among other details, no fewer than sixteen large pages of a " General List of Stamps ;" an Official Directory," with an index of six thousand persons holding situations under the Crown, in the Bank, the East India House, and other public departments ; the " Commer cial Directory," perhaps the fullest and most complete that has evor yet amarei, and a variety of miscellaneous matter which it is impossible to particularise here. In short, from our own observation, we can safely pronounce this work a sine qua non to everybody who desires to become acquainted with the great metropolitan world of London. Shipping and Mercantile Gazette, Dec. 22, 1841. On our reference from time to time to the Post-office Direc tory of 1841, we felt convinced that nothicg could have been produced more perfect for the purposes for which the huge compilation was designed ; it appears, however, we were mis taken. The thick volume before us is vastly superior to the last, and is unquestionably " the most complete work of the kind ever published ;" the information is so judiciously olassi fied, that although it extends over some fifteen hundred large closely printed pages, every department of the compilation might be consulted in a few seconds. It is snrprisirg how such a mass of intelligence can have heed collected and ar ranged so accurately, expeditiously. and cheaply, neither of which could of course be accomplished without the extensive and peculiar resources of the General Post-office. No count ing-house, coffee-room, or public office, should be without this excellent record. Sun, November 25, 1841. We have great pleasure in noticing this useful work, of which we have received an early copy.

This Work, a Seventh Edition of which is now presented to the public, ten thousand copies have been exhausted since its first appearance, has been very much improved and enlarged by the addition of a more extended and clear detail of general principles, as also by the insertion of several new and highly in teresting cases. The book, as has been already stated, is the result of very ample and daily increasing experience in a class of diseases, which, for some unaccountable reason, have been either altogether overlooked, or treated almost with indiffer ence, by the ordinary medical practitioner. The proverbial and well known rapacity of unqualified practitioners, who traffic on the health and credulity of patients, has been en couraged and aroused by this supineness, on the part of the authors have fur a considerable t ime devoted themselves r s e u g ro ula t r o su r reg s e o o lt n. fro l m n or th de e r p t r o obviate ntieesof t s he ueh pe p in re ic te io h u d s er e s ff , e t ,ht e s ex clusively to a certain class of diseases; of the necessity of so doing, they were further convinced by feeling that. tact in in vestigating; the latent sources of many diseases, which arise from certain secret practices, can only be acquired by an ex clusive and undivided attention to this department of medical practice. The numberless instances daily occurring, wherein affections of the lungs, putting on all the outer appearances of consumption, which, however, when traced to their source, arc found to result from certain baneful practices, fully proves that the principle of the division of labour, is nowhere more applicable than in medical practice. We feel no hesitation in saying that there is no member of society by whom the book will not be found useful, whether such person hold the relation of a Parent, a Preceptor, or a Clergyman. The PARENT, who beholds his beloved child pining away, and fast approaching to a premature grave, in conse quence of some disease, which, for want of careful investiga tion of its real cause, has been set down to the score of con sumption, will, on perusing this work, be astonished to find, that in nine-tenths of the cases of young persons of both sexes, who perish of what is called pulmonary consumption, heart disease, tapes, &c., the sole and exclusive origin has been the indulgence in certain destructive habits practised by youth much more frequently than it is at all suspected. The PRECEPTOR, also, who holds (temporarily at least), the relation and responsibility of a parent, will, by perusing this work, be directed and very much assisted in investigating and detecting the too often con cealed practices so often introduced into schools, whereby the health and ultimately the lives of his pupils are sure to be com promised, unless the evil be arrested in proper time. He will here find a clue to guide him through the intricate mazes of this moral labyrinth, and a standard whereby to judge, when delicacy of health should appear to attack any of his young charges, what the real causes of such attack may be, and thus he will be enabled to check the evil in its incipient state. The CLERGYMAN, in whose sacred character is at' once concentrated the two-fold relation of parent and instructor, will here be directed as to the nature of those habits to which youth is addicted; he will also be enabled to point out the dis astrous consequences which arc sure to follow from them if not relinquished.
