THE MARCH EDITION OF THE POST-
OFFICE LONDON DIRECTORY FOR 1846.

The "Parliamentary" and "Official" divisions of the work have
been corrected to this date, and furnish the results of all the recent
elections and official changes.
" The volume for the current year surpasses anything of a similar
kin I that has ever been offered to the public; to be without It is
almost an imputation en the common sense of all persons connected
with the trade of London or the common business of life."—Times,
January 9, 1846.
" We look upon it as the cheapest, as assuredly it is the most valu-
able and useful, annual work which emanates from the press of
England."—Morning Advertiser, December 24, 1845.
" Comprises within its voluminous pages of information (now
absolutely indispensable to the merchant and tradesman) an
' Official Directory,' a 'Street Directory,' a Commercial Directory,'
a Trades' Directory,' a 'Law Directory,' a Court Directory,' a
Parliamentary Directory,' a Postal Directory,' a City Directory,'
a Conveyance Directory,' a Banking Directory,' and a variety of
other copious lists of intormation."—Morning Herald, December 27,
1845.
" The enormous multitude of facts which are condensed in the
bulky volume before us is really overwhelming ; yet they are not
more than are requisite to make the dwellers in our overgrown city
duly acquainted with one another's business and residences."—
Morning chronicle, Jan. 17, 1846.
" There is not one class in the community to which some of the
directions are not absolutely necessary."—Sun, Dec. 27, 1845.
" It is only necessary to say of this established work, that it
sustains the high reputation for accuracy and comprehensiveness
which the former volumes, in Mr. Kelly's hands, at.once obtained
for it."—Globe, Jan. 17, 1846.
" The Post-office must be greatly advantaged by the publication,
both from letters being directed more accurately, with this book as
a guide, and from its always being at hand ready for reference in
cases of doubt."—Britannia, Dec. 27, 1845.
" To ensure accuracy in such a book, the collection of the informa-
tion should be simultaneous ; and how completely this is effected, is
proved by the fact that an Intelligent letter-carrier performs within
twenty-four hours all the duties annually required of him for the
purposes of the Yost-office London Directory."—Weekly Dispatch,
Dec. 28, 1845.
" Excellent as were the preceding volumes, this one has received
various improvements, which add largely to that previous excel-
lency."—John Bull, Jan. 10, 1846.
