Now publishing, in 2,620 Imperial Octavo pages, the
POST OFFICE LONDON DIRECTORY
.FOR 1855. The work has been so greatly extended, that the
division entitled " Street Directory" contains 152,416 names, being
about THIRTT-EIGHT THOUSAND more than have ever appeared in
the corresponding division of any other book. Its distinguishing
feature is, that in it all the streets, squares, crescents, Ste., &c., of
the metropolis and its sulyirbs appear in one general alphabetical
arrangement ; it is, therefore, the only work in which the occupant
of any house can be ascertained.
The 152,416 names are carried into all the classifications to which
they are appropriate, each in its proper alphabetical position ; all
the members of any profession or trade, whether in the metropolis
or its suburbs, are (in the" Trades" division) arranged alphabetically
in one list. This being the only work in which they are so, is the
only one in which all the memhers of any trade can be ascertained.
The nobility,/entry, and professional persons resident in London
and its suburbs, are included in the one general" Court!' alphabetical
list, now so greatly extended that it includes upwards of Forty-four
thousand names.
An accurately compiled "Conveyance Directory," so comprehen-
sive as to include all the Railway Stations and Money Order Offices
in Great Bri'ain, is included in the volume, which also contains a
large amount of mit cellaneous information, as—House of Peers, in
their order of precedence—Provincial Inas, with their holders—
Arrangements of the Law Courts—Names of all Postmasters In
England and Wales—Periodical Publications. with their Publishers
—not any part of which is to be found in any other London Direc-
tory. It, besides, has (exclusively) that most important adjunct,
an INDEX TO STREETS, PLACES, CHAMBERS, WHARFS, &C., &C.,
with full Money Order Information.
" It is just in proportion as this vigilance is exercised that a direc-
tory becomes valuable or useless; and an inspection of the work
before us unquestionably leads to the conclusion that, upon the score
of watchfulness and accuracy, nothing is left to be desired."—Times,
Nov. 23, 1854.
"The copiousness and accuracy of the' Post Office London Direc-
tory' are wonderful."—Morning Chronicle, 3d Nov., 1851.

whisper of suspicion or reproach."—Morning Herald, 6th Nov., 1554.
" After carefully examining the book in its several subdivisions,
we feel bound to acknowledge its very great accuracy."—Morning
Advertiser, Nov. 7th, 1854.

have gone before it."—Standard, 7th Nev., 1854.
"A prodigy of labour, care, and arduous circumspection of the
huge metropcl's of the world."—Sun, 20th Nov., 1854.
We believe the book to be, on the whole, as perfect as human
labour and human ingenuity can make it."—Globe, Nov. 5, 1884.
" Like the London the' Post-oflice Directory' exhibited more than
half a century ago, it has grown out of knowledge."—Spectator, Ilth
Nov , 1854.
" Looking at the two volumes critically, and apartfrom considera-
tion of their cost, the' Post-office Directory' appears to us beyond
question the best."—Examiner, 11th Nov., 1834.
" We have looked ever several names, where very recent changes
have made us doubtful that they might have been registered, but
have found them all faithfully noted."—Court Journal, 11th Nov
185

A more stupendous ani accurate wort of the kind than coult
be compiled in any other city of the world."—Church and State
Gazette, 10th Nov., 1854.
"The best Directory."—Leader, 11th Nov. 1851.
"We might mention many iimilar marks of attention to the ever-
ehanzinz events of 'the Great Babylon hat theseJcw w,ll surges
to show how daerently the ' host-office Directory' is managed to
that of a rival, whick makes the largest pretensions to accuracy, and
yet reiterates the same unpardonable blunders year after year."—
Bell's Weekly Messenger, 11th Nov., 1851.
"Nicholas might face the Lancaster cannon, bat he woal I turn
pale-and-tail at the sight of the Pest Office Directory.' "—Atlas,
4th Nov., 1664.

bulk, has been the constant aim of the proprietor, and the past sale
of his work proves that he has attained thin great object."—lllus-
trated London News, 18th Nov., 1854.

"Truly we may class the Directory among modern wonders."—
Weekly Dispatch, sth Nov , 1854.

has always been distinguishe I, and which, of course, constitutes the
great desideratum of a Directory, has been net merely maintained,
but increased."—Era, 12th Nov., 1854.
" Fully worthy of its unrivalled reputation as a metropolitan
directory."—Sunday Times, sth Nov., 1854.
" Complete as it appeared to be, the inventive power of the pro-
prieter has yet devised some farther improvements upon the publica-
tion of last year."—John Bull, 4th Nov., 1854.
"The work has become not a mere convenience, but a down-
right necessity."—Field, Nov. I I th, 1854.
"The accuracy with which it has carried out the idea pats all
competing Directories at an immeasurable distance."—Britann'a,
Nov 11th, 1854.
" For utlity and in'ormation, as a class work, it is unrivalled."—
Mining Journal, 4th Nov., 1854.
" Improved at every point where improvement is possible."—
Herapath's Journal, 4th Nov., 1354.
" It is truly one of the wonders of the age, and reflects the highest
credit on the ability, industry, and punctuality of its conductors."—

WATKINS'S DIRECTORY.-BLUNDERS.
Gratis, or forwarded per post on receipt of one penny
stamp, a Review, in eight pages imperial octavo, showing a large
number of absurd and ludicrous blunders, which have appeared in
every edition of Watkins's Directory, as follows :-
1. In the edition for 1552, published in December, 1851.
2. The same blenders REPRINTED into the edition for 1283.
3. The identical blunders again reprinted in the edition for 1854.
4. The same once more reprinted into March edition for 1854.
5. And finally*, the same again reprinted into the edition for NEXT
TEAR.
In the "Review" we predicted that no full and precise explanation
would be attempted, and the result has proved the accuracy of the
prediction: in-tead of an open and direct answer in print, the pro-
jector has forwarded written statements to individuals complaining
of our " incessant" attacks upon his book, but omitting to state that
the staple of each of these consists of an exposure of stale, old re-
printed blunders, eech time a different catalogue frem that appa-
rently inexhaustible blunder-mine —Watkins's Directo.y.
The Subscribers to the book arc respectfully requested to peruse
oar last Review, and then to require a full and precise published ex-
planation of blundering, such as we believe never to have bee'
paralleled in any book purporting to be a " Directory."
Kelly and Co., 19, 20, mid 21, Old Boswell-court, Temple-bar.
