The issuing of the Letters of Allotment of Shares in this Company,
the Directors desire to explain that they have delayed doing so
until the standing orders of both Houses of rarliament had been
complied with, and certain arrangements entered into with the South
Eastern Railway Company had been brought to a conclusion.
The Directors have now the greatest satisfaction in stating that
arrangements with the South Eastern Company have been concluded,
and they are fully justified in asserting that the Company will be
placed in such a position as to insure the proprietary against loss ;
for in the event of an Act not being obtained, they undertake to
return the whole of the deposit money without any deduction what-
ever. And in case of the Bill passing, shares in the South Eastern
Company will be allotted to the proprietors in lieu of stock in this
Company.
The Directors, in making this announcement, feel that the Com-
pany, as now settled, are on such a basis as to secure most im-
portant and unusual advantages to its proprietors, and to warrant
the Directors in proceeding to Parliament with the undertaking with
every expectation of success. •

POST-OFFICE LONDON DIRECTORY
for 1846.
The earliest copy of the work has been but a few days issued, and
the following reviews have already appeared in the leading metropo-
litan journals:—

SUN, December 27, 184 L
This work has now reached the forty-seventh annual edition, and,
to the credit of Mr. Kelly, the proprietor, who has spared no expenSe
or labour in the compilation, keeps progress with the times, and
marks, more than any similar publication, the great changes which
have taken place, not only in our trade and commerce, but in the
appearance and extent of this vast metropolis. No other nation
could furnish materials for such a work, and to these is the compiler
partly indebted to such a mass of useful information, useful, not to
a few classes only, but to the whole community. There is not one
class in the community to which some of the directions are not ab-
solutely necessary. It extends to 2,074 pages, printed in a close, but
clear and bold type, and is accompanied by a beautiful, minute, and
as far as we have had an opportunity of judging, a correct map of
all the streets of London, with the names of each distinctly marked.
The work does great credit to Mr. Kelly, and we have no doubt that

GLOBE, Jan. 17, 1846

It is only necessary to say of this established work, that it sustains
the high reputation for accuracy and comprehensiveness which
the forester volumes, in ➢ir. Kelly's hands, at once :btalred for it.
In fact, to all London residents this annual has been an indispens-
able volume. In the present year several improvements have been
added.

TIMES, January 9, 1846.
This volume unlike many others, as it increases in bulk, increases
correspondently in value ; thus every succeeding edition is more
valuable than its predecessors, and the book of 1846 contains more
information than the book of 1845. The volume for the current
year surpasses anything of a similar kind that has ever been offered
to the public as a guide-book to the names, occupations,•professiens,
and habitations of the hundreds of thousands of the inhabitants of
London, •r that has ever yet been issued from the press. In it,
whoever has a " local habitation and a name" is noted down—that I
is, if he be a housekeeper, an office-keeper, or the proprietor or
keeper of anything beyond a flunished lodging or the humble oc-
cupant of an attic. There is an " Official Directory," a " Street
Directory," -a " Trades' Directory," a " Law Directory," a
" Court Directory," a " Parliamentary Directory," a " Postal Di-
rectory," a " City Directory," a " Conveyance Directory," a
" Banking Directory," and a mass of other matter, explanatory of
many things which are necessary to be known, and which are net to
be feund collected together and easily accessible in any other volume.
This is the 47th annual publication of the work, which is now so fully
established in public estimation, for the accuracy and multi-
plicity of its intelligence, requisite for every class and for every
day, that to be without it is almost an imputation on the common
sense of all persons connected with the trade of London or the
common business of life.

MORNING HERALD, December 27, 1845.
This eicelient3Fork, the 47th edition of which has just reached ns,
keeps pace with the commercial requirements of the times. The
"Post Office Directory" of some twelve years since, and the "Post
Office Directory" for the coming year present a remarkable contrast.
Then it was confined to a meagre list of names, comprised within a
circle of two or three miles, and might have been put very conveniently
into one's coat pocket. Year after year it has increased in size, and
added various and valuable stores of information to its eolumns ; its
hundreds of pages have grown into thousands, and it now embraces
the metropolis and its suburbs, from north to south, east and west,
and comprises within its voluminous pages of inarmation (now
absolutely indispensable to the merchant and tradesman) an
" Official Directory," a " Street Directory," a " Commercial
Director 3 ," a "Trades' Directory," a "Law Directory," a "Court
Directory," a "Parliamentary Directory," a "Pe stab Directory,"
a " City Directory," a " Conveyance Directory,"' a " Banking
Directory," and a variety of other copious lists of information,
the mere transcription of which would occupy co nsiderable time.
Its list of "Provincial Inns" extends over 31 pages cif three columns
eack •, its " Post Office London Official Directory" over 48 pages,
twenty-eight of which are of four and twenty of two• columns each ;
its "Street Directory" 472 pages of three colt dans each; its
"Commercial and Professional Directory" 504 pages of two colntrins
each ; its " Trade Directory " 623 pages of three col mmns each ; its
" Law Directory " 64 pages ; " Court Directory- " 110 pages ;
"Parliamentary Directory" 36 pages; "Postal Directory" (most
elaborately compiled) 67 pages, &c. This portion .of, the work has
been much enlarged and improved. It now suppl fen us with the
hour of delivery of the London letters at each tower :.and Tillage in
the United Kingdom at which there is a Post-office or Receiving-
house, and the time at whick the letter-box for Landon closes at
each place ; also the distance of each from the post town through
which the London letters are transmitted. We also a bserve that this
valuable Map of London, which has for some years pa st accompanied
the volume, and which has been frequently much im proved, is ren-
dered still more valuable in the present edition. The names of each
street are most distinctly printed, and we hesitate molt to state that
it is one of the best Maps of London extant. The IV ork is printed
in a clear bold type. We can scarcely think it reo iui res special re-
commendation, for no man who really has businei to to transact can
well do without it.

HORNING CHRONICLE, Jan. 17, 7 147.
The annual volume just published of this labor! vas and valuable,
work deserves the same meed of approbation which .has been se de-
servedly bestowed upon its predecessors. In mere size, it is con-
siderably larger than any of them, not only by tl 10 introduction of
new information, but in consequence of the yearly g rowth of the me-
tropolis, to the avocations and whereabouts of whos I inhabitants it is
intende4 to form the " directory." The enormous > Sultitude of facts
which are condensed in the bulky volume before us : Is really over-
whelming; yet they are not more than are reguis its; to make the
dwellers in our overgrown city duly acquainted wit h one another's
business and residences. The facts are presented in tl to same available
form, and Kith the same attention to accuracy and re centness of in-
formation which characterise the volume for 1845, a xi, I rendered it a
model of perfection as a directory. We observe ec,me useful ad-
ditions to the contents of the present publication, el :pecially in the
section devoted to the Post-office arrangements, wh' Id i are so rapidly
becoming extended and complicated under the d or ble impulse of
new railways and the penny postage.
MORNING ADVERTISER, Dec. 24, 18 45.

This work, published by Kelly and Co., which ht to now made its
annual appearance for forty-seven 3 ears, is decided) y one of the most
useful works of the day. It contains an immense as mount of infor-
mation of the greatest importance to all in any wit 3 r connected with
the metropolis. It comprises among other informal lo n, an " Official
Directory," a " Street Directory," a " Commercial Directory," a
" Trades' Directory," a " Law Directory," a "Co ur t Directory,"
" Parliamentary Directory," a "City Directory," a. • " Postal Direc-
tory," a "Conveyance Directory," and a "Bank D ire ctory." 'Under
these various divisions will be found manes of I aft trmation, com-
bining the attributes of accuracy and completeness. The amount of
labour bestowed on the compilation of this work m ust necessarily
have been very great, and nothing but a liberal pt t ro nage from the
public could remunerate the enterpzising proprietors T their outlay
and labour. The " Post-office London Directory" is sh igularly cheap,
considering the nature and quantity of the informa don it contains.
It extends to no fewer than 2,000 large closely printed pages, in
double and treble columns. All things considered, 11,3 look upon it
as the cheapest, as assuredly it is the most val ;Labia and useful,
annual work which emanates from the press of En; a and. The map
accompanying it appears to us to be much improved: r; it is certainly
equally and perfect.
WEEKLY DISPATurr, par_ 28. IP ;Ai i.
Tis colossal guide to the great metropolis is a a' si king illustration
of tha results of British perseverance properly dir. sated, and British
capital judiciously employed. Fir many years Lb a French " Al-
manack of Fifty Thousand Addresses" was cons id, wed one of the
wonders of the world ; but the Messrs. Kelly have thieved a work
which may be aptly termed a wonder upon It'enders. Large
trey surprising and every department is arranged with so much
ears, judgment, and accurate discrimination, thaf-4 the business of

information contained in tke work. There are of heir departments
which will be found invaluable to the commercial ' public. The fol-
lowing extract front the preface should be quoted The advan-
tages possessed by the proprietor are of no ordinal y character; the
most important being the means placed at his disc anal through the
favour of her Majesty's Postmaster-General. 'I he General Post
letter-carriers, under the direction of his Lordshir t, collect, each in
his own district, the information from which the vol Itnae is compiled.
To ensure accuracy in such a book, the collection the information
should be simultaneous ; and hew . completely thi a is effected, is
proved by the fact that an intelligent letter-carrier pt ;dorms within
twenty-four hours all the duties annually required of him for the
purposes of the Post Office London Directory.'a We need not
add any recommendation of this work ; its reputat tat n is established
on a solid basis.

BRITANNIA, December 27, 18454
This wonderful annual continues to keep pace• with the times,
fast as they move. It now numbers upwards a f 2,000 closely-
printed pages, this immense mass of matter lx tin g so judiciously
classified and arranged that any item of it can bet picked out with-
out the loss of a minute expended in the search- From the con-
nexion of the Proprietor with the Post-office, he is enabled to
collect his information from the most authentic s• oar rtes, and (a great
advantage) to combine it simultaneously. Some- objection has been
made to the letter-carriers being employed for this service ; but,
Independent of all ether considerations, it is co la in that the Post-
office must be greatly advantaged by the pul dictation, both from
letters being directed more accurately, with th is book as a guide,
and from its always being at hand ready for i ref erence in eases of
doubt. The volume has all the merits of its pr. tdocessers ; displays,
like them, the utmost care in every department.; and as a work of
reference for the merchant, trader, or any pore on engaged in bust.
ness in London, leaves nothing to be desired. It is one of the most
remarkable examples of great industry, Intel] tig ence, and capital
being successfully employed in the production of a work for facili-
tating the operations of business and extending ` trading intercourse,
that the age, fertile as it is in ingenious invent! or ts, affords. Of its
kind, it is as near perfection As it seems possible? :for any work to be
brought.

JOHN BULL, January 10, 1346 .
Wo have so often had to bear cur testimony to the extraordinary
merits of this most laborious compilation, its thiltess and accuracy
of information, and its consequent -value to ev erg' one who " lives,
and moves, and has his being" in London, that sal we need now do
is to state that, excellent as were the preceding-. -volumes, this one
has received various improvements, which add 1 argely to that pre-
vious excellency. It is a work of Immense care and labour, and of
corresponding utility.
RAILWAY HERALD, Jan. 18416.
The chief feature of the " Post-offre Directory "' to men of business
is, that they cannot do without it—it Js indispensable, thumbed over,
referred to, day by day, and week by week—a e< ,unting-house, in
these times of letter-sending, could do almost as liven without an Ink-
stand as without a "Directory." We have made a kgreat many trials

In different parts of the work, exercising- a careful scrutiny, and in no
instance has it suffered under the test.
RAILWAY EXPREss, San. 154111
It is scarcely possible for any work to be more eerrest than this,
or more carefully compiled in all its laborious dotvll. It would be
difficult to find a more-comprehensive or snore useful work than this
adsairably arranged exhibition of this vast city. "The typographical
execution is as complete as becomes the well-dead-vod popularity of
the volume. It is needless to say more than th at tits book is known
and consulted by every man of business in London..

NICOLL'S PALETOT, registered 6 and 7 Vic.,
cap. 65, is patronised by the Prince Consort, Prince George
of Cambridge, &c., and is generally acknowledged to excel all other
great coats. The cloth is made of Llama Wool, known to be porous,
yet naturally repellant of rain.
In the neighbourhood of the extensive Wareroorns, 114, Regent-
street, a few small shops are so far unprincipled as to assume a
similarity of name, intending to impose upon strangers some trashy
substitute. Messrs. Nicoll think it due to their own reputation thus
to caution the public, and to suggest that a copy of the Addressa be
preserved ; and they further offer a Reward of Fifty Pounds for the
detection of a Positive Infringement.
Black Llama Cloth, from its soft elastic nature, is well adapted for

rHE GOLDEN FLAX CRAVAT COLLAR.
—" The Single Bands" may be worn with the customary
cravat, giving increased warmth and compactness, by substituting
linen bands in place of the unsightly and troublesome tape-strings,
and avoiding the unseemly parting and irritation of the usual collar
at the back of the neck, by one linen band passing through the
other. "The Double Bands" need no additional cravat; in one ar-
ticle is combined both collar and cravat. In both' kinds " The
purest White" is obtained by the use (exclusively) of "The Golden
Flax" linen.

N.B. Each cravat collar bean the name of " John Paterson,
London, registered Aug. 29, 1845," and may be obtained at any of the
principal hosiers and drapers, in London and the country.

the people who have got votes. Never m

about Sir Robert Peel and his " plan"—be that p
what it may. The assumption that Sir Robert Peel can
carry the total, immediate, and unconditional repeal of
the corn-law through the two Houses of Parliament,
without an intervening general election, is one of the,
wildest of hallucination,. The people have done it alle
thus far—and, rely on it, the people will have to do it all
at last. The total, immediate, and unconditional repeal
of the eorn-law will, almost certainly, be the work of the
next House of Commons ; and the next House of Com-
mons will, almost certainly (should the present one live
long enough) be elected under the registration of 1846.
The time is short—yet much may still be. done in this:
short time. In the precious six days that now reniain,
there is time for thousands and thousands of the 'men-
franchised to pay money, receive their conveyances, and
take out their title to a freehold interest in the soil of
their country, and a share in its Government. In those
counties, more particularly in which most work haa,4en
already done, these few days may be invaluable. Where
much has been accomplished, and the victory is all but
won, a little more may make all the clfirerence between a
minority and a majority—or between a mere majority,
and a majority so decisive and commanding, as to pre-
clude all possibility of defeat, or even of contest.
Once more, then, with all the earnestness and emphasis
prompted by the conviction that the time, though short,
is yet long enough for great successes—that victory is
within our grasp, if we will but grasp it —and that the
exertions of the next six days may have much to do with
making the Parliament that is to make England free for
ever from landlordism and artificial famine—we reiterate
our fervent exhortation and entreaty to the free traders of
every county in England, to -

SELLING A WIFB.—A few days ago,• &labouring
man named Lyon, resididg at Woodside, left his home
with his wife and child for the purpose of visiting some
relations at Warrington. On reaching the station at
Lime-street, they were too late for the train ; and Mr.
Lyon, being a thirity soul, immediately went to a pub-
lie-house in the neighbourhood to compensate himself for
his disappointment. While they wefe them, 'a-gentle-
man Lamed Tyrer, who had also been indulging rather
freely in Sir John Barleycorn, took great notice of Lyon's
wife and child, whose ruddy cheeks were the very
personification of health and contentment, and at length
offered to purchase them for no less a sum than
500 L Lyon immediately agreed, and 51. was paid
as a deposit, with which the happy husband liberally
treated every body in the house with drink. Mr. Tyrer
called a car to convey his purchase to his own wifeless
and childless home, not to be so much longer, as he
thought ; but, to his great surprise, the lady refused
to acknowledge the right of her husband—lord and
master though he might be—to transfer her allegiance
as he liked ; and, after a long altercation, Lyon walked
off with his wife and child, together with what was left
of Mr. Tyrer's 5/. Lyon, who tells the story as a good
joke, says he knew very well that his wife would never
agree to the bargain ; but that there is no dealing
with " the pride and conceit of his wife," since the gen-
tleman valued her at so large a sum as 5001.7—Liverpool
Courier.

Several militia clubi are being formed at Merthyr.
The general rule appears to be subscriptions of twenty
shillings payable on or before the Ist of April. Of this
five shillings is paid as a deposit on admission, which, in
default of the full payment of the remainder, becomes
forfeited to the club. Surpluses, should there be any,
are to be divided equally among the members. There is
a very respectable club of this sort open att he Lambinn,
Glebeland.

ASHTON-UNDER- LYNE,—FREE-TRADE QUALIFICA-
TIONS —The free traders of this district are most active
in preparing their qualifications. Such has been the
energy and zeal displayed by the gentlemen of Mossley,
that this village can boast of more free-trade qualifica-
tions than any other place in England, of the same mag-
nitude. The inhabitants of Mossley have also esta-
blished a freehold building society, which is now in a
most prosperous state.—Manchester Guardian.

less inconvenience to my eyes; I have sent you a frame, and
please to put in a pair of yours, exactly the same as the former,

stant habit of making use of for a great number of years.
