GLOBE, Nov. 21, 1846,

•
Kelly's invaluable work, the " Post-office Directory," has just
*lade its appearance for the ensuing year. The visit mass of infor-
!nation which this book contains, makes it not only desirable but
absolutely necessary as a part of the office fttrniture of every man of
business ; and scarcely less necessary, indeed, for every one else,
Who requires to know anything concerning the trades, professions,
and localities of the great metropolis. In its present extended form,
the book is an absolute curiosity; the labour and expense which it
has cost to bring it to its present state of perfection must have beta
immense. In turning over its two thousand pages, one hardly
knows which most to be strack with and admire—the excellent
arrangement and utility of such a compilation, or the magnitude of
the city which requires such a directory. The volume, moreover,
contains au excellent map of London and the suburbs, corrected
down to the latest strides of " bricks and mortar."
WEEKLY DISPATCH, Nov. 15, 1846. . .

The forty-eighth annual publication of this highly-important and
Seethl work has just been issued ; and we must confess that its
bulky appearance has surprised us not a little ; and when we reflect
' that the price remains unaltered, although the expense of collecting
the materials must have increased, we are pleased at the liberality
of Mr, Kelly, the proprietor. In a commercial point of view, per-
haps, so book ever contained so much useful matter. Among other
Information, there is an Official Directory," a street Directory,"
a" Commercial Directory," a " Trades' Directory," a " Law Direc-
tory," a " Court Directory," a " Parliamentary Directory," a "City
Directory," a " Convel ce Directory," and a " Banking Three-
tory,"—in fact, the volume contains much that is interesting and
valuable to the tradesman, the merchant, the lawyer, and pers ne in
ordiaary life, as well as to the gentleman who occasionally dabbles in
trade. Every description of information has been corrected to
the latest possible period, and that information is arranged with a
clearness and simplicity which must have involved great activity of
mind and exertion of body. Sewed with-the book is an excellently
engraved Map of London, more extended and accurate as to the
suburbs than any map we have seen.; and to make it as complete a
reference as possible, an almanac is introduced. In the " Postal
Directory" there are the new rates with various parts of the Con-
tinent which will come into operation on the Ist if January.
Altogether this new issue surpasses any of its predecessors ; and we
are nct surprised that other Directories should hays gone to the
tomb of all the Capulets.
BRITANNIA, Nov. 21, 1646.
The French people have done themselves some credit by their in-
Anstrial expositions. But it must be acknowledged that, though in-
genious and pretty, they appear quite insignificant compared with
the industrial exposition presented to the mind by this mighty
volume. Keeping pace with the advancing trade and population of
London, it still increases in bulk, and keeping pace with the move-
. tnent of society in a more important particular, it vigilantly seizes
every opportunity of improvement to insure more perfect accuracy
and more complete classification. We find in this volume many in-
stances of superiority to former issues, which, though comparatively
trifling, show the intelligence and care exercised over every depart-
laent. It may be mentioned, that by the employment of private
*dents, the changes of residence are now brought down to a later
Period than formerly, and the value of the " Directory" is conse-
fEtentlY enhanced. We have before spoken of it as indispensable to
proper management of business. Its authority is now so univer-
tallY established, both at the Post-office and throughout the metro-
vulbi, that any Anther recommendation of it is superfluous.

JOAN BULL, Nov. 28, 1846.
This annual leviathan is already completed and published ; but
a proof that the rapidity with which it must have passed through
the Press has not operated against its careful accuracy, we may
cation that the changes rendered uecessary by the very recent
deter of Mr. Stewart, M.l'. for Renfrewahire, are duly attended
'See Pages 1669 and 1676). We have so frequently expressed our
approbation of this moat valuable work, that we hardly know how
:jai,' our commendation. It contains ever% thing that can pos-
zan.ur
Z. 041 be required in a directory—so full, so complete, so compre-
.',. sive are all its details. And when to this we add the extreme
to avoid
acv which pervades every departm ,111, we know not what elite

ohe said in its praise. The machinery by which such volu-
!Li it ns information is obtained, arrange.,, alio superintended, so as

REMARKABLE CASE of RESTORATION.
A striking instance of the power of scientific art to remedy
the defects of nature has lately occurred in the case of a Mr. F. Balls,
a gentleman residing at Wortham, in Norfolk, who, in the year 1842,
on returning from Isarlestone Market to Weybred, where he then re-
titled, sustained so severe a fall from his horse, as to bring on an ill-
ness of several months' duration, during which period his hair con-
tinued to come off, till he because, to use his own terms, " as perfectly
bale-,. as if h!4 11,fad had lain stet td;' lie-. J. E. Daniel.
then clergyman'of 'the put tih, offered him a wig as a substitute for
"Tics lost hair. Under these circumstances, he was induced to try the
effect of noWLAND'S MACASSAR. OIL, and It is highly gratifying
to add, with the most happy results. As soon as part of a bottle was
.used the growth recommenced, and he has now to ho est of a very
thick and luxuriant head of hair, which presents this peculiarity,
that, though prior to losing his hair it evinced no tendency to curl,
the new grow th is curly and strong. This fact speaks too strongly
for itself to require observation.—Bell's Messenger.

AN Additional and Important Evidence of the
Salutary Effects of BL AIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC
PILLS, from Mr. Samuel Dixon,of Kin,,scliffe, Northamptonshire.
" Kingseliffe, Northamptonshire, March 14, 1846.
" To Mr. Thomas Prout, 229, Strand, London.
Sir,—l feel it a duty which 'to yourself and the public to
nform you of the great benefit whiche I have derived by taking
Blair's Gout and Rheumatic Pills During several years I was
gout, fre-
quently laid up by attacks of *being unable to attend to business
for months at a time. I had
often been advised to try litlair's Pills,
but it was not until a friend pressed them upon me that I was in-
duced to take them, and from which I found speedy relief. This is
several years ago, but I continue to take them whenever an attack
conies on, and am thereby enabled quickly to resume my business.
I am, Sir, your obedient servant,
" SAMUEL DIXON." The above testimonial exhibits the never-failing effects of this
valuable medicine, which affords to the afflicted with gout, rheu-
matism, lumbago, sciatica, and all analogous complaints, speedy and
certain relief.
Among the many discoveries that characterise the present age,
none have coltributed so much to te comfort and ease of the com-
munity, nor conferred such a boon upon
suffering humanity, as the
important discovery of BLAIR'S GOT and RHEUMATIC PILLS,
the efficacy of which has been tested by the approval rind recommen-
dation of many of the greatest men of our day. They are effective
for gout and rheumatism in all its various forms, including sciatica,
lumbago, pains in the head and face, frequently treated as tooth-
ache, &e. They require neither confinement nor attention of any
kind, and invariably prevent the disease attacking
the stomach, brain,
or other vital part.
