DIRECTORY OF VIZ MIDLAND COI7NrINS. —Messrs.
Kelly and Co., of Gleat Queen-street, have just brought
out a new edition of their •' Post-office Directory" of the
Midland and the adjoining counties, including Bedford-
shire, Berkshire, Oxfordsiiire, Buckinghamshire, Bunt- )
ingdonshire, and Northamptonshire. We have put a
considerable portion cf the volumes to a somewhat
severe test, and in nearly every etite we have futiod the
information which it comprises both authentic and cere-
fully brought down to the present time. What anti-
quarian matter it contains seems welt selected, and will
tecorumend the work doubtless to all members of the
Archreological Association and Institute. '.i he at. It-
quary will also feel grateful to Messrs. Kelly for their
fai htul reproduction—apparanav by tne ptocesu of
photo-iithography —of oin maps of these several counties
as they existed in the early part of the reign ul dame I.
in the general topOgrisphy of each county is embodied a
geological sketch of the same—the wort', we are given to
understand, of Mr. IN illiam J. Harrison, of the Museum
at Leicester. So far as we eau judge, no effort has
been spared to render the book as perfect as such a
work can be; lists of the hundreds rapt of the Poor Law
tbions 'lase been induced in the topography; of eso
county. Under eacut parish it is stated in that
fluudied, what Union, what County Court District,
what Archdeaconar), and wits: Eur,il Deanery it is situ-
ated, and the College and University degrees of all the
clergy, both in the theniebents and cantles, have been
tbseited so fax is they could be ascertained. Under each
parish is given the name of the " Parish Clerk;" even
the names of the fetus bailiffs of the squirearchy are re-
corded ' • there are full tit:times of the money older and
telegraph offices, and Yost-office Savings Barks.
