can speak from experience in stating that the possession of this work
greatly facilitates the transaction of business, and the Cost of its
purchase will soon be returned to the merchant and trader of every
kind by time saved, mistakes avoided, and regularity and accuracy
in the dispatch of business ensured. The only wonder is, how so
mighty a volume, containing such an incredible amount of details,
can be issued at the price charged for it.
• WEEKLY DISPATCH, NOVEMBER 28, 1847.
The annual issue of this stupendous work is now before us. For
forty-nine years has this work existed ; and every year beholds new
improvements, emendations, and additions. To render it more com-
plete than it now is would appear Impossible, fur its value cannot be
increased. It is invaluable. The labour and expense bestowed
upon its compilation are evidently unsparing; and we are pleased to
hear that Mr. Kelly has rendered himself independent of the Post-
office in getting it up. Nevertheless, the work is not the less accu-
rate, nor the less complete, on that account. Its bulk has greatly
increased ;• and the:information it contains has augmented in amount
likewise. ".Claarness, and simplicity of arrangement," says the Pre-
face, " are, of the utmost importance in a work of such constant
a reference," nd.these qualities strongly recommend the "Directory."
The " Street Directory' in the present edition contains forty-seven
olosely-printed pages: more than any previous issue, " this large
amount of additanial matter being introduced into all the other ar-
rangements and classifications; and without increase of price to the
subscribers." In a word, this magnificent product of labour, judg-
ment, and liberality may well be denominated " A hand-book to t c
Commerce of the First Commercial City in the World ;" and what-
ever profit Mr. Kelly may derive from the undertaking he most
honourably cants and richly deserves.' That this profit will be coin
mensarate ,with the trouble, anxiety, anti outlay incurred we do net
doubt; fur what counting-house, tradesman's establishment, or office
of business would he without the " Post-office Directory."
SI'ECTATOII, NOVEMBER 27, 1847.
We did not see lb s " Ldrectory" last year ; and in the interval
it has almost " grown out of knowledge," the additions have made
it so stout. The " Street Directory" has been considerably en-
larged ;. the," Postal" information is fuller ; the " Provincial Inns"
and the " Oflleial Directory" seen new features ; and the " Con-
veyance" department, especially in the Railways, has also been ex-
tended. But there are limits to the convenience of bulk, and we
think the " Post-ofilde London'iiirectory" has fully reached those
limits; any further extension Will involve the necessity of division
into two volumes, for a book that will be incessantly handled in the
shop or counting house should be handy.
In the preface, the Proprletars state that, at tkeir own desire, the
system of employing the Post-office letter-carriers as collectors of
names has been discontipued, and private agents are now engaged.
If this do not ditniniSh the accuracy of the work, well and good ; but
the objection was not 'against *employirg the letter-carriers, for if
they were the best agents it waif best that they should be employed;;
—the objection that we urged was, that if the public servants were
employed, the public should reap the benefit;. which it Was ateged
was not the case. Ilowever, it does not appear that any evil has
arisen from the change.

BELL'S LIFE IN LONDON, NOVEMBER 28, 1847.
• We have before us a copy of this extraordinary volume, which
from its comprehensive character, and the almost unlimited amount
of the information it contains, is unparalleled. There is scarcely a
place or person to which direction is desirable, that may not here
be found, and so admirably and so perfectly arranged as to render
reference almost instantaneous: East and west, north and south.
are all embraced. No pains have been spared to render it complete,
and when the labour is considered, it is only wonderfel that so
much has been accomplished with so•mnch accuracy. It supersedes
all other works of the same description, and in fact, leaves nothing
to desire. High or low, all classes are alike consulted, and as an
index to everybody and- everything it is invaluable. An excellent
map of London is appended, and when we state that this is the
forty-ninth annual publication, some guarantee is afforded of the
advantage derived from experience.
ATLAS, NOVEMBER 27, 1847.
We need not apprise our readers of the great merits of this book
hut it may be proper to observe, that the present volume exhibits
increased care in those departments of reference wherever an exten-
sion of the field of information rendered additional matter neces-
sary. The " Street Directory," following the advance of industry,
wealth, and population, has been considerably enlarged; and the
trade lists and personal directories afford ample evidence, in their
accuracy and completeness, of the extraordinary attention that has
been bestowed upon their compilation. As a picture of the resources
of London, looked at through the media of commerce, law, handi-
craft, finance, and fashion, the volume is altogether one of the
most remarkable productions of our time. It is not only valuable
but curious, the most suggestive, as well as the most practical of
all books ;—a book upon which it would be impossible to put any
price that should bear a reasonable relation to its interest and its
Importance. Its- utility embraces all classes ; it contains informa-
tion which concerns everybody, either specially or generally ;
and it is equally indispensable to the library, counting-house, shop,
and office.

tIE It A PATII'S 7tAILWAY JOURNAL, NOVEMBER 27, 1847.
In the true spirit of English enterprise, not daunted by threatened
encroachments of the Crowe, niir damped by a system of underhand
opposition, the proprietors of this work (the Messrs. Kelly) have, in
the edition just issued, effected improvements on that in use for
1447. They have perfected some parts and enlarged others. Al-
together, the new edition is somewhat more bulky, and, apparent
inure expensively got up than its predecessor; but the price is the
same. They have now been thrown upon their own resources, and
the result is, that a more valuatde work has been produced—ln mass
of information and accuracy. So much for the outcry about the as-
sistance by the officials of the Tost-offlee, the want of which has only
served to make additions to the work.

One half the world are desolately single, and the other
supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, er a
sense of right determine the foriener, and miscalculated hopes em-
bitter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea
of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un-
comprosing harry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity,
and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness
and social content. The dowry should not be the only marriage set-
tlement. Honour end justice demand that health should form au item
in the compact ; it alone dignities the alliance. Blighted hopes or
neglect wound snore sorely than poverty or misfoi tune. Reader, it

Marriage requires the fulfilinent of several conditions. In order
that it may be really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the
veil, which covers the origin of domestic wretchedness, be raised,
and its true source in every instance disclosed, in hew many oould
it be traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant disap-
pointments. Excesses are always injurious; the gift, which when
used in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when
bthe prolific source of mischief, and of greater or less injury
aatoisthe:fi,
constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses, on
.he nature and consequence of which this Treatise professes to dilate,
are productive of greater severity of misery to the human frame,
than any other to which it is subject.
This work contains an accurate and complete account of the
Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs, and of
their relative conditions ix health aid disease. It deservedly
requires the closest attention and study, for what subject can
be of more importance than the preservation of the health,
and of the physical capabilities of which every man should
be possessed. It unfortunately happens that the unhappy
victim of excessive indulgence and vicious habits, whether acquired
in early life or from the follies of advanced age, while suffering
from their invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a fear of ap-
plying to a qiittlified physician for relief. Shame and the dread so
frequently, but erroneously entertained that these complaints are
beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking
for assistance where alone it can be procured. In ;feting thus, he
forgets that accurate discrimination in ascertaining the causes of
disease, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, lxva-
riably characterise the intelnoitt and practical physician, and to the
medical man who can show by hi.; posse-sion of the requisite legal
qualifications that he is entitled to esteem and respect in his profes-
sional pursuits, the utmost confidence should be extended. Dr.
LA'MERT has obtained the highest medical honours, as his diplomas
testifY, and the great extent of his practice for many years is a
guarantee for his professional experienee, which has reference almost
solely to the treatment of these diseases.
